Chapter 1 (Teaser)

I checked my watch... 7 AM. I guess I might as well take a shower... maybe something to distract myself from missing Edward. I had arrived at 2 in the morning from my shopping trip with Alice and Rosalie in Paris (since I was changed I had more of a liking for shopping... one of the many things that had changed after my transformation) to find Edward gone somewhere. Although, never physically exhausted, when I arrived back at the house I had felt that certain tiredness deep insane I felt sometimes. So I had locked myself in my and Edward's room, thinking about the fight we had before he left. We had been married for all of 6 months now since our hasty marriage at the end of senior year. We had married in our old bio classroom with Emmett as the priest and our closest friends and family as the witness. But since then Edward had been smothering me. Not in any way close to me wanting to leave him, but certainly enough to need to say something about it. I'd been talking to Angela about it and she'd advised I had a serious, calm discussion about it with him, sometime when we were alone. Which is no mean feat if you live in a house of vampires.

But things didn't work out exactly as I planned. Of course they didn't. Right before my sisters and I hopped the plane for Milan, Edward was being all "Bella, I can't stand being away from you. What if you find some charming Italian vampire" and I sort of exploded on him, saying all this shit about how he had me, why was he complaining. And he countered with I never seemed to mind before. And then I said well maybe I did but I was just keeping my mouth shut. And basically it was this…. thing that I didn't know if I should regret or not. So I just… though about it a lot and decided to wait it out. What is said was legit, right? RIGHT?!

I hopped into the shower and let the hot water pound into my icy skin, surveying my flawless body, except for the crescent shaped scar on my neck and that little hickey...I stood in the shower until the room fogged up and, eventually, the water turned as icy as my own skin and I got outside and stood, naked in from of the mirror and sighed playing the argument over in my head yet again. Then I realized I'd left my clothes in Edward's closet. I picked up a fluffy white towel and wrapped myself up, and opened the door.

I looked up and jumped because I found myself staring into a pair of Topaz eyes, which, much to my exasperation, were filled with amusement.

A/N: Who do you think it is?? Hmm, I wonder…:)

So this one isn't done either. Sorry, guys. But its gonna be really hilarious, so stay tuned.
