Hey Everyone,
I'm definitely not new to fanfic, but I am new to writing for Twilight. I am used to writing for Kyle XY! I just fell in love with The Twilight saga! So, I hope everyone enjoys this chapter! Reviews would be absolutely lovely.

I laid on my rooftop, outside my bedroom window as I stared out against the luminescent sky before me. It was if everything had been hi-lighted that night. Perhaps, it was because I knew that the guy I was in love with would shortly be here to wrap his cold, but comforting arms around me- or perhaps, it was just the night.
A gentle breeze swooped by, swooshing across my porcelain complexion and it made me smile. Only then, did I realize it wasn't who I thought it was. It was Alice. She was as radiant as ever, her eyes sparkling in the moonlight, her short hair gently swaying through the breeze.
I looked up at her and smiled, although disappointment was probably scattered across my face. "Hey Alice!" I tried to sound as cheerful as I possibly could.
She sat next to me and laughed. "Your mother wasn't kidding about you being an open book."
I raised my eyebrows in a questionable manner, completely confused.
She sighed, putting her hand on top of mine; patting it "Edward will be here shortly. He and Emmet decided to hunt a little longer. I think he was saying something about a really grumpy bear and then he mentioned, 'Keep Bella company!' –So, here I am!" She fanned herself.
I smiled, "He's always thinking of others,"
"Correction: He's always thinking of you," She let out a giggle as I watched the moonlight radiate from her skin. I couldn't help but to stare at her perfection, only wishing I could be as beautiful. After all, I was average according to almost everyone, except for Edward. He constantly told me how gorgeous I was. Of course, I had a hard time believing it.
"You are gorgeous," He moaned from around the corner. "Sorry I took so long. Those bears just aren't what they used to be. I told Emmet not to antagonize him, but you know how obedient he is," He bent down and gave me a gentle peck on my lips.
I rolled my eyes at him, "I completely know what you mean about those bears. I mean, the last time I caught one-" I trailed off and started laughing.
He rolled his eyes and placed his arm around my waist.
"So, what's on the agenda tonight?" I asked as I rubbed my fingers back on forth against his smooth, cool skin.
"It depends on whether we're having company or not," He turned his head in Alice's direction, shooting her eye-bullets.
"Got it- I'll see you in the morning Edward. Good night, Bella!" She jumped up.
I waved back at her smiling, "Good night." And with that she fled off into the night sky.
"So, what did you have in mind?" I taunted him as he picked me up and brought me inside my room.
"How about we finish where we left of last night?" He asked as he carried me to my bed.
"Don't you mean where you left off?" I asked him, staring straight into his amber colored eyes.
His mood suddenly changed as he placed me down on my bed a bit rougher than normal, but still careful of not hurting me. "Bella, we've been over this before," He sat down next to me, running his fingers through his hair. "I could hurt you,"
"You've never hurt me before," I protested, "I trust you completely."
"I know you do," He sighed, "That's the problem. I don't know if I trust myself enough. I can't even make one, tiny mistake with you, Bella. I love you too much to let anything happen to you."
I smiled at him, "I love you too. Then let's do something else," I grabbed his hand, pulling him toward me. I knew I wouldn't win this argument, so for the time being we would just soak up every possible ounce of each other.
He laid down next to me and placed his hands behind his head, "What's on your mind?"
I climbed under my blue comforter, laying my head on his stone cold chest and smiled. "Sing my lullaby to me,"
He chuckled and began to hum, stroking my back gently with the tips of his fingers.
I kissed his muscular, yet comforting chest and sighed in contentment. I soon lost consciousness somewhere around the fourth time he hummed the song to me. At that moment I completely knew this was where I wanted to be for the rest of my life.
A boom of thunder roared through the walls to my house, instantly jolting me awake, "It's too early." I moaned under my breath.
Edward laughed next to me, pulling me closer to him by my waist.
"Good morning, love." He greeted me, flashing his gorgeous, pearly white smile.
"Morning," I muttered deliberately into my pillow.
He laughed, "Human moment?"
I blushed, shaking my head up and down. I pried myself out of his stubborn arms, "I don't want to let you go,"
"Trust me, you'll want to." I kissed his hand.
Finally he let me go, but not without kissing my hair. I grabbed my clothes from my closet and skipped down the stairs. During the whole process of getting my clothes and my toiletries, I could feel his eyes on my back.
What did he think was so intriguing about me? I'll never know.
I smiled as I pressed 'play' on my iPod that was carefully docked in the speakers and began to play a song, happily singing along with the words in the shower.
My warm and peaceful shower soon abruptly came to a halt as the lights and my music suddenly blacked out.
Before I knew it, I could hear Edwards voice by the bathroom door. "Are you okay?"
"Yeah, I'm fine. What happened" I asked, shutting the water off which had all of a sudden turned ice-cold.
"We lost the power from the storm. I guess you didn't hear that big clash of thunder while you were singing to David Archuleta did you?" He chuckled and I immediately blushed.
"Guess not," I smiled, wrapping a towel around my soaking wet body.
"Can you see okay in there? I can get a candle," He offered.
He was always so over protective.
"I'm fine. I can see enough to get my clothes on and come out in one piece." I promised him.
I waited until I saw his shadow move away from the 1 inch crack beneath the door before I started to get dressed. It was a little frustrating not being able to see if I put my shirt on the right way and not to mention the way my clothes were sticking to me from the humidity of the hot water.
I smiled as I buttoned my last button on my pants. I was wearing a simple black tank top with a pair of jeans. Casual enough for comfort, yet it was cute.
I ran a brush through my tangled tendrils and opened the bathroom door, releasing all of the steam. Before I left my bathroom, I smiled writing 'I love Edward' in the condensation on my mirror. –Hopefully it was written clearly, I couldn't tell well through the darkness.
"I love you too," He smiled, as he wrapped his arms around my waist.
I immediately blushed, "You can read that?" I asked him, turning around to face him.
"Mhm…" Was all he said before he scooped me up and brought me to the couch.
I nestled myself in the crevices of his body, mine forming into his. I looked up into his gorgeous topaz eyes and kissed him gently. He smiled and kissed me back as we laid there, listening to the rain beat against the roof and windows.
Charlie went down to La Push for the day; he said something about beating Jacob and has dad in rummy. –So, luckily, Edward and I had the house to ourselves.
"What do you want to do today?" He stroked my back with his cold fingers.
"This," I gently kissed his neck and laid my head back down on his chest.
He just smiled at me as I smiled back. These were the moments I loved.
A loud clash of thunder shook the house causing me to jump, "It's just thunder, love." A laughed echoed from his chest.
"I know, it just startled me,"
"I won't let anything hurt you," He look serious for a moment, but his face returned normal after he saw that I noticed the sudden change.
"What's wrong?" I asked him, reaching up to touch his porcelain complexion.
"Nothing," he answered too quickly.
He was lying. I could tell. I know Edward and I know when he is lying.
"You're lying to me," I gave him a concerned look, sitting up from his stone-cold, yet comforting body.
"You're right," He sighed, lacing our fingers together. "I smell a vampire, but I don't know who it is."
"That vampire happens to be a 'vegetarian', right?" Suddenly fear ached through my entire body. I had known this horrible feeling all too well. I felt as if James was around the corner – although I knew it wasn't him, but the feeling brought back those treacherous memories.
"Bella, love, we're going to go to my house today, okay?" He asked grabbing my jacket from the dining room chair.
"He's not a 'vegetarian' is he?" I gulped, suddenly freezing in place.
"No," was all he said and with that we were already half way to his house.
So…
