Disclaimer: I did not create the ideas that this story are bases on. They are all from Stephenie Meyer's series.
I liked her ideas, but got tired of waiting so I decided to do some writing of my own. My chapters will probably be either short and sweet of long and complicated. Thanks for any and all reviews, especially those that will help me to improve my writing ability. And so we begin.
From her position looking up into Edward's eyes, Bella could see the love that rested there. She smiled, so excited that she had found the love of her life and a place where she could be happy. "I'm ready, Edward."
Edward just sighed and pulled her close. He knew that this day had been fast approaching. He had talked Bella into attending one year of college, but only on the condition that he stay with her at all times and that if she decided that she was ready for the next stage in their life to begin, he wouldn't question her.
She had honored her part of the bargain, she had tried at college life, but she was simply unable to find satisfaction in knowing that she was only postponing this next part of her life. She had accepted the fact that she wouldn't be fit for human contact for many years to come. She had accepted the loss of her human family, knowing that Edward and his family would not only offer her a platform to fall back on, but would keep track of her human family and keep them safe. She had accepted that she would, basically be dead to the world. Now she looked forward. She wanted the life she could make with Edward. She wanted the family that his could provide. She wanted the security of knowing she could be with him forever. In a small way, she even wanted the power that came with vampirism. She wanted to know that Edward wouldn't always have to watch both their backs. She wanted to know that she could defend him too. So she was ready.
"Let's go then," Edward muttered.
Bella smiled and hugged him close before standing up and getting dressed. Edward watched her with a bemused smile. He had been amazed that he had been able to be with her even though her blood called him constantly. And he, too, was ready to move on. He was truly starting to believe that Bella would be best off with the powers that they could give her. She would be stronger and after all of the attacks in the past few years, he could honestly find no fault in that. He had also recognized the fact that, if their souls were lost in vampirism, his was already gone and if they died, that would mean Bella's would have to go on without him. He would never put her through that. He had promised that he would stay with her. And so long as they both existed, he would keep that promise.
