A/N: Sorry for the wait. And I'll apologize in advance for the next one the (probably) last part is coming in about five or six weeks, becausethen I go home, and the stuff's at home. So, sorry.

Live forever

Remember
And live forever
Remember
To live for love

A dream, surely. I saw a beautiful man in my dream. He was of such a divine beauty, nearly an angel, such a heavenly creature couldn't possible exist. You were so incredibly handsome. I recall your pale face, the way your eyes shone in that first vision, the way your lips curved into a genuine smile, your hair tousled by the wind. I remember your arms, stretched out to catch me, your whole muscular body moving towards me, head held high, and your faint silvery scars.

After that first vision of you, I awoke with a start. The memory was so vivid, so real at that time, you calling me desperately. And I knew I'd fall in love with you, and you'd fall in love with me. And I also knew we'd leave together for a place I had yet to see in a vision, for a place that promised a future, for a place that would give us a family. I knew we'd be travelling a long way; however it would be worth it. I knew our journey would be happy, reckless and full of love.

Then I heard a knock on the door. I thought I saw your silhouette in the window, but when I took a closer look, there were nothing but fog and dust in the wind. Your beautiful face disappeared and I sank back into the couch. The wind continued to hurl outside, and the world sank once again into a dormant state to my eyes.

In my next vision, I saw the both of us during our journey. Bliss and happiness were evident on our faces, due to the overwhelming feeling of love I even saw in the vision. Sure, it was a long way, and it was hard. But we were young, and happy, and in love. We were vampires. Completely wild, we strolled through the forests, hunting the deer and bears we found. There was something gracious about you feeding off that mountain lion – I recall your head bent low above its neck as you prepared to bite it, you sucking the crimson red liquid from the body, later on you slowly but tenderly detaching those lovely lips from its soft fur and almost tenderly setting the lifeless animal onto the green grass. It was sensual, in some angelic yet archaic fashion, seeing your muscles flex, preparing to jump a deer, you effortlessly catching up with a bear, looking so small and fragile in front of it, you retreating from its motionless figure, licking the last traces of red from your lips.

We didn't need anybody but each other. I saw us in that abandoned fountain somewhere in the Canadian wilderness. We swam in that fountain beneath the northern stars. It was a magnificent night, stars were shining above our heads and I remember the immense feeling of freedom I felt, almost flying in the water. We cried from the laughter. The sheer absurdity of it, the odds of a vampire meeting his mate and making that insane journey to find happiness in a loving family, suddenly occurred to us. Indeed we had found our mate, and embraced each other, still laughing. That night, I must have died in your arms, for when I woke up, an angel was smiling in my face and it must have been heaven. Being with you was all I could ever have desired – all I will ever want. The way you smiled at me, you kissed me, you tenderly caressed my body until we were one, is all I could ever ask for.

I'd gone out in search of you after that very first vision on the cloudy November evening. But I passed a stranger who had your eyes, or was it you? Nevertheless, when I turned around, the stranger was gone. Eventually, I found you in the bar. Of course you didn't know me, so I just walked up to you and smiled. Everything was completely fine, at that one timeless moment I saw you. I had already seen our future together, at a family called the Cullens. I'd have a sister, two brothers, a mother, a father, and him, my mate. That first moment, I saw something in your eyes, maybe love, maybe attraction, maybe a silent question.

All I know is what I felt. What all the visions in this world or another couldn't have accomplished happened: I fell in love with you, but it was so much more than a simple human love. Human love can be a lie, mistaken for lust. Human love can be gone in the blink of an eye. Human love can be doubting. Human love can be calculating. Human love can be jealous. Human love can be divided between several people. Human love can be irresponsible. Human love can be irrevocable. Human love can be magnificent. Human love can be cruel. Human love can be quiet. Human love can be weak. Human love can be wild. Human love can be strong and loud and loving and free. My love is all of those, but so much stronger, because it is true.

My third and last vision of our journey consisted of us running through a graveyard. I saw our bare feet on the green grass and the dirt. I saw us jumping over the tombs with light steps, and kissing each rose on them. Sweet dew lay atop the silent cemetery, the sun shining through the mist at dawn like it had hours before at midnight. Such a magical experience, yet we felt like two children who are caught doing something forbidden.

In the green forests where no human had ever set foot, we danced, completely unashamed of our nakedness. We gave ourselves up until there was nothing more than the other –you… you… you… Endlessly we murmured "you" in each other's ears, spinning around in circles in the small meadow while the raindrops fell onto our naked bodies. We danced and danced until the summer was gone, caught in each other's arms for all eternity.

That's our story. Of how we met, how we fell in love and how we finally arrived at our family. Maybe it was fate, maybe it was destiny. Maybe it was life, or simply chance. But I like to think we were made to fall in love with each other one day, and as we couldn't in our normal lifespan, we were turned into vampires. Maybe love is the most important thing there is, for a vampire or for a human. Maybe finding true love – or what we believe to be true love – is what life's all about. For, if you live forever, remember to live for love. If you're in love, remember life never ends because love is immortal and can survive the ages.
