So I wrote this awhile ago... I just never posted it, but tonight I though, what the heck? A bit unusual for me, seeing as I usually write all human fics, but oh well... Enjoy!
My thirst burned almost uncontrollably as I ran through the dense undergrowth. I let my senses take over as I whipped past trees, hunting for prey. Suddenly I smelt it, and I heard its heart as well, a mountain lion; dangerous, huge, delicious.
Edward sensed it as well, we veered north in the same millisecond, the only thing on our minds was our thirst. We had been a bit preoccupied for the last few days (or weeks) seeing as our entire family (minus us) had gone on vacation. Jasper, Alice, Esme, and Carlisle were all in Europe. Rosalie and Emmett were somewhere in the Andes, and Jacob and Renessmee were in Asia for their honeymoon.
In tune with my emotions as always, Edward paused and I stopped running for a second. I hefted my shield from my mind and voiced my thoughts.
I miss her.
He nodded. "I know Bella, love. I miss her too. But you know, and even though I hate to admit this, Jacob would never let anything happen to her."
He took my hands in his, squeezing gently. I smiled slightly and he pulled me in for a hug. I knew Jacob would never ever let anything or anyone hurt Nessie, but she was still technically a seven year old. A seven year old with the mind of someone who had walked the earth for centuries, the body of America's Next Top Model, and the kind and gentle nature of an angel.
"They'll be fine," He said, still reading my thoughts, "How about we get that mountain lion and then go home and…continue…where we left off?" Edward said, amusement clear on his face when he saw my face light up at the thought of continuing our previous activity.
"Alright," I said, "No more worrying."
My forehead was still crinkled in anxiety.
Edward kissed me, and I forgot everything on my mind and focused on his lips, so soft against mine. My hands running through his gorgeous hair, his fingers tracing patterns on my hips.
We broke away and smiled at one another.
"I love you Edward," I said softly.
"As I love you, my dearest Bella," He replied, grabbing my hand as we ran.
Do I even say it? Yeah, I will... REVIEW!!!!! (Please???)
