I recently fell in insane obsessive love with the Twilight series, and really wanted to do a crossover for a while. I saw another Twilight/OTH crossover, which was great, but it's an LP. So I thought I'd snap out of my writers funk and help out the BL fans. Review!

Being in love with a human. I'd expected Carlisle to laugh at me, tell me I was crazy maybe. Instead he softly sighed, and pointed to the couple in the corner. I am not a part of their family, I never have been. My 86 years of life have been spent as a roaming, tracking, 17-year-old vampire. I had only heard about Bella, the human, and Edward, the vampire, and their legendary love story through others of my kind. Truthfully, I believed it was disgusting. To have any feeling other then bloodlust towards your prey was crazy.
Ending up in North Carolina and finding them was purely chance. And so was finding her.
She isn't weak. She doesn't need an Edward, a protector. She isn't afraid of me, yet she isn't attached. She is only bound to me by curiosity.
"Lucas?"
My head pops up at the sound of my name, in that graceful vampire way, as Bella says. Brooke Davis is standing there, hazel eyes shining, raven hair matted to her face from the constant drizzle over this town.
"Hey." I say, adjusting my position against the tree trunk I'd been leaning on. She zips up her sweatshirt and wraps her arms around herself, trying to keep warm.
"So. I guess we should just get to the point. I have questions, you have answers." She says, staring right through me. I hold out my pale hand to her and she takes it, adjusting to the shock of cold quickly. We walk steadily along the path through the forest behind her house.
"Well? Ask away." I say. "Although, I could save you some trouble. I don't only come out at night, a wooden stake through the heart probably won't kill me, and the smell of garlic doesn't scare me. I don't plan on sucking your blood, but plans can change." I finish, throwing her a wink and a crooked smile.
She smiles back and stares into my topaz eyes. I had come well prepared, hunting with Emmett and Edward the day before. Their vegetarian lifestyle had confused me at first, but unless I wanted to eat the poor girl I had fallen for, I had to adjust.
"And your…friends? The Cullens?" She asks tentatively.
"Yes."
"Do you think I'm making a mistake? Is there some vampire thing I'm getting myself into that I'm not aware of?
Her question intrigues me, and I wonder if she's right. Edward had brought Bella into a world of constant danger, but she had insisted, instead of asked.
"Do you trust me?" I ask.
"Yes." She answers, gripping my hand tighter.
"Do you love me?"
"Yes." She breathes. "Forever and ever."
"Then we'll be fine."
