I was on my way to Bella's house like I do always at night. I never get tired of watching my angel sleep. I was thinking about the constant argument of Bella's mortality as I climbed up the side of her house. Just as I was about to open the window I saw Bella sitting at the foot of her bed, head down, crying. I opened the window and in a graceful movement was kneeling in front of her. She looked up and met my gaze. Sadness, hurt, and confusion were mirrored in her chocolate orbs. I reached for and took her hands in mine, she was shaking.

"What's wrong Bella?" I asked. This was one of those moments where I wished I could read her mind

"You, you don't want me?" Her voice cracked. I was utterly shocked at this question. Who would possibly ever consider the thought of not wanting Bella? I pulled her sobbing figure into my arms.

"Bella where on Earth did you come up with that silly question. You know that I love you and will always want you" truly I did I couldn't live without her.

"That isn't true, because it's impossible, you want me forever" I pulled back and looked her right in the eyes.

"Bella I will be with you forever, never doubt that, I'll never leave you, ever, I will stay with you forever, not a day less", her eyes held a hint of doubt a pang of pain washed through me. Another tear rolled down her cheek.

"I'll have to leave you some day, is that what you want?" Terror washed through my body followed by the numbing pain I suffered when I was, away.

"If, if you out grew me I'd understand" I would understand, to this day I still can't understand how she could love a monster like me

"I could never out grow you Edward, but I meant I'll have to leave you" my eyes widened "When I die, I don't get a forever like you Edward. Humans just can't " she whispered "No matter how much I wish we could" she looked down. More tears falling. Bella, dead. The thought was inconceivable.

"But why would you not think that I wanted you?" I was still confused about her accusation.

"You won't change me, the only reason is that you don't want me forever. You seem willing enough to leave me be the way I am, normal, breakable, mortal. You think that I don't know what's best for me or that you don't want to do this to me, but why? Because you don't want me forever no matter how much I want you, want this" More tears fell. I kissed each one away. If I could cry I would. She just doesn't understand, Bella, my Bella, so pure, innocent, warm, courageous. I could never turn her into the creature that suffers the lack of life that I must live.

"You truly want this? You really want to be a cold, soulless, monster, like me?" I looked into her eyes searching for a sign of hesitation, hoping she would say no.

"You are not a cold, soulless monster, because you love me don't you? And yes I want to be with you always and forever. Because being human is pure torture" more tears. I wiped the tears away. How could living be torture?

"But what about your family?" she smiled.

"You know that I would fly away one day, because I have trouble keeping my feet on the ground", she laughed, her beautiful angelic laugh.

"Oh and why is that?" I smiled.

"Because our love gives me wings" I pulled her into my arms, and kissed her warm forehead.

"Silly Bella all angels have wings" she must have known that. I kissed her strawberry scented hair and sighed. "By the way I'm sorry" I said.

"For what?"

"Angels should never cry", I said as I wiped away another escaped tear. It's true causing angels pain is a horrible crime.

"Bella you know that I really do want to change you, but I don't want to hurt you, I am a naturally greedy creature, of course I wanted you from the beginning forever" Ever since I first realized that I loved her, I wanted her, completely.

"Edward you know that I trust you, I can do it, you can do it, the pain means nothing to me I know that I can take this risk, with you. My wings aren't broken any more, I'm not broken, I can fly Edward, so let me." I looked into her chocolate eyes, she was right she wasn't broken any more, she was so strong, and brave. I kissed her more deeply than I had ever dared.

"Okay Bella, I'll change you, I love you, as long as we both shall live, and much longer" She threw my arms around me. I picked her up and ran her to my house where we were greeted by a smiling family. Alice was practically having a seizure in her seat they already knew why we were here. Everyone congratulated Bella and I. I swept her off to my room, but I stopped at the door and starred at the king sized wonder that was in front of us.

"I thought you might like that, it'll come in handy", Alice said as she walked past the door winking. I carried Bella over to the bed, sat her down and climbed up next to her. I pulled her close to me. I breathed in her luscious scent. She just snuggled into my shoulder. I started to sing a song to Bella. It perfectly described her to me.

"You are my sunshine, my only sunshine, you make me happy, when skies are gray, you'll never know, dear, how much I love you, so please don't my sunshine away." He kissed my hair. "Bella you are my sunshine, my bring and shining light, you are the moon in my starless sky, my sun, on a cloudy day. I love you Bella" She truly would never know how much I really loved her.

"I love you too Edward" she kissed me. I kissed her right back, crushing her to me. I made a trail of kisses down her delicate jaw line, to her neck I kissed it then, where I kissed, I sunk my cursed venom coated teeth into her beautifully pale skin.

"I love you Edward thank you" I kissed her, unable to speak from the hideous deed I had just done.

"Please don't take my sunshine away" Then she drifted into unconsciousness.

Bella simply lay there with her eyes closed as she slowly transformed. I sat next to her, she held my hand, her grip tightening by the minute. Her face held a look of extreme discomfort. Yet she didn't thrash, she didn't scream. She was perfectly still, every now and then she would squeeze my hand hard. Other than that she was my sleeping beauty. It has been nearly three days and her heart has almost stopped. Then suddenly she moaned softly. She squeezed so hard it actually hurt. I pulled her close to me when I heard it. Her heart, stop.
