I sadly dont own Twilight or anything!
The day started out with the sun shining high in the blue sky for the first day since id visited the small town of Volterra, Italy. I had been there for over a week now and it had been raining on and off and that so it was hard to really see all the sights that were interesting. This was my first time visiting Europe and so I decided I would start with Italy, it was large enough that I could see plenty but I was told there was a beautiful old castle in town that was worth seeing but it would have to wait a few more days until I finished what was already on my agenda. For me this is a huge deal because I've always lived in a small town, Forks, in Washington so I knew that this trip would be amazing for me and I had saved up for it, and I had managed to convince a few friends to join me in the process.
I had chosen a small hostel, with a beautiful courtyard to stay in for the 2 weeks that I would be there, I was sharing it with my friend Angela, and she was great we got along so well she had been my best friend since I moved back home with my father, which reminded me that I need to buy another calling card to make sure my father was still alive and well and not worried.
I decided that today I would travel alone and see some sights and maybe take in a museum or 2, I heard they had some great stuff and I wanted to see as much as I could before I had to leave for my next stop which was going to be France. The rest of my friends were already there because the rain and cloudy days had made them feel too at home so they went on to get some more adventure. I had always felt at ease in cloudy weather. I decided to head out early and start my day in the market near the main square.
While walking by all the shops and homes I would take pictures of anything that really stood out to me, whether it was a person or a building, it didn't matter as long as it was interesting, and I would use it later in my scrapbook. I stopped in front of an odd looking grey building and wondered what it was and started to snap away with the new camera I had gotten the year before, as I was standing there a sudden rush of air hit me and I suddenly felt shivers crawl up my back, as if someone was watching me, I looked around but couldn't see anyone near me, it was still quite early. I shook if off as nothing and just continued on my little adventure. As I got closer to the market I noticed something odd while I was walking, I saw a flash of someone or something walk quickly into an alley and my eyes just couldn't help it and I was drawn to whatever it was that was there and I was about to follow but all I could see was a dark cloak rush by and my instinct told me to stay away but I found myself in the middle of the street and the person had stopped as well as if they knew I was there without turning around. I was suddenly frozen in my tracks and for a split second I felt like this person was going to come out and talk to me but they never turned around and all at once they left in a rush and they disappeared as quickly as they had come.
After I got my heart rate down I kept walking wondering what and odd thing to see this early in the morning. When I looked up again they sky was turning grey, great! I thought now I'll have to get what I wanted from the market and hurry inside and hope it doesn't rain.
As I turned the corner to enter the market I stopped dead in my tracks and there he was, the most beautiful man I had ever seen. His hair was brown with bronze in it and he had to be at least 5"9 but he wasn't very build from what I could see but he stood very straight almost stoic like. I was surprised how he seemed to be so intense with his companion, a short girl with dark hair and she was beautiful as well, immediately I felt my face flush as I saw he realized I was staring at him and he slightly turned and took a quick glance and moved further away and spoke more to the little girl in an almost silent conversation.
He was standing where I needed to be "okay Bella just be calm and go right up there and get your fruit! Who cares if he's insanely gorgeous, he didn't even notice you!"
I slowly turned and felt myself move towards the stand, I could feel his eyes on me but I dared not look, I bought my fruit and started to stare at what else was on the table just so I wouldn't be tempted, in my head I was debating if I should just go up to him and try and speak to him, as I looked up to see if he was around he was gone, I was puzzled, was he not right here just a minute ago? Maybe I was losing my mind, was it possible he was never here and I was imagining the whole situation? Maybe I was trying so hard to meet some tall dark handsome Italian man to make my journey here more worthwhile.
As I continued on with my day, the god like man never left my thoughts and it seemed everywhere I went I was secretly hoping to see him again.
