Chapter 1- Her Obsession
TPOV:
"I'll catch up with you guys later, I need to speak to Edward for a moment" I said to my sister Kate as they where about to set off to leave for home after a visit with the Cullen's.
My father Eleaza responded, "Okay, just don't keep us waiting too long we will wait for you to hunt." And with that my family swiftly jumped the river near Carlisle's home.
As I walked back up to the Cullen's house I caught a glimpse of Edward's beautiful glimmering skin as he jumped out of his window. I felt a pang of longing to have him by my side. Why didn't he choose me to be his mate? I am much prettier than that human girl he loves. I hated her for taking any chance I had with him away from me. Could he really be that in love with her?
I ran up to him and grabbed his hand and he quickly took his hand away running quicker into the woods. So I quickened my pace to match his. "Hey, can we talk?"
Edward stopped and stood as still as a rock. Crap, I forgot that he could read my mind. I don't know how to begin saying this, and you probably already know what I want to say … I mean think… uh just yea… "I… I can't help the overwhelming feeling that I get when I look at …"
"Stop. Tanya" he started "I'm with Bella and we are happy. I apologize if you're not satisfied with that, but I think of you as family nothing more."
If I had a heart beat it would have stopped just then and there. I already knew this but to hear it come out of his mouth made my world spin around. "But Edward she is merely a human you haven't even given me a chance." I have to try.
Edward shook his head. "It was lovely seeing you again, Tanya. Until next time." And with that my one chance at love did the most graceful leap across the river and disappeared through the trees.
I stood there for what seemed like forever, even to an immortal. I have to find a way, any way to make him see that he should be mine.
