~B POV

I could hear Edward call my name as he realized I wasn't there with him anymore. I could hear the rising panic in his voice, which caused me to feel slightly guilty. I knew it would be worth it though. I fought the strong urge to turn back and look at Edward, knowing my plans would probably easily be ruined if I stalled for any amount of time. I had to move fast if I wanted my plan to work. My plan had even surprised me; I was becoming much braver.

I began to let images play in my mind of Edward sitting up and discovering my disappearance. I couldn't help the soft giggle that escaped at the images. Luckily I was deep enough through the forest now. Plus Edward was probably a bit too distracting in his panic of not knowing where I was. I took a quick deep breath, trying to prepare myself for what I was about to do. A part of me wanted to chicken out, probably the rational part, but I fought with myself to follow through with my plan, since I had already started to put things into action. I didn't have much time to think it through, which was a good thing before I wasn't able to go through with it. Acting quickly I began to remove my clothes dropping them on the ground for Edward to find, knowing my scent would be strong in them. I hoped out of my shoes leaving a trail. I knew he would be very shocked and surprised and it made me feel giddy, thinking of his reaction.

Everything was a blur as I moved at the fastest past I could, trying to stay ahead of Edward. I could register his footsteps as he entered the forest and I smiled widely. ………

~E POV

Bella's scent was still overwhelmingly strong. I couldn't believe she had left. I immediately began to follow her scent and it lead to the forest. Just outside the forest line something caught my eye, and caused them to widen. It was Bella's jacket she had been wearing, lying on the ground. I picked it up and inspected it, everything seemed to be fine with it. I continued down the path. As I inched forward her sandals were also on the ground, they looked as if they had been placed purposefully. I didn't bother to pick those up, too determined to find Bella.

The next thing I saw caused me to gasp and stop walking altogether. It was the light beige flannel shirt she had been wearing. When I was finally able to take my eyes off the piece of fabric as images of half naked began to invade my mind, I continued walking. I moved at a slower pace, so as to not miss anything else I might find, although the pace was quite frustrating. I hadn't seen anything else for a while when I finally can across her pale jeans. Once again images of her without these items of clothing began to invade my mind.

I realized now that Bella was leaving me clues and it was another game she had started. I smiled at the thought.

The next thing I saw caused me to stop breathing, I could feel a low growl build in my chest and escape my lips. Lying right before me was Bella's soft satin underwear. I picked them up and brought them up to my face. I was overwhelmed with the scent of Bella which was still strong. I needed to find her.

~B POV

I took off my underwear, the last of my clothing, dropping them on the forest floor. Luckily I was moving at such a fast pace that even if I did come across someone, they wouldn't be able to see me. I'm sure I was probably a blur. After a while my pace slowed. I knew I probably had a few seconds to do this since Edward would probably be distracted by my clues. I wanted badly to be able to somehow see the look on his face, as he came across each piece I had left for him.

I bit my lip as I continued to move again to keep the distance between us as I realized I had no more clues to leave, sure he could probably just follow my scent, but I wanted to leave them for him.

Normally I probably would have drawn a blank, but my new quick mind quickly came up with a plan. I smiled widely as I headed out the forest and back toward our cottage…………

~E POV

It was almost painful as I continued my search for her. My pants had become very uncomfortable and hugged me tighter around the waist area, and the material was rubbing against my skin in a very uncomfortable way, as I continued to move through the forest taking in Bella's sweet and intoxicating scent.

I no longer saw any pieces of clothing and it had been a while now. A smile crossed my face as I realized she had most likely run out of "clues" to leave me. I started concentrating more on my sense of smell, no longer bothering to look for anything I may find laying on the ground. This enabled me to move faster.

I realized I was still holding Bella's jacket and underwear in my hand, gripping them tightly. I chuckled to myself as I looked at the items in my hand, and then groaned afterwards. The slight motion from my laughter had caused my pants to rub uncomfortably against me again.

Images of the things I wanted to do to my Bella when I found her began to play in my mind. I shook my head slightly, in an effort to clear the images, trying to concentrate on the task at hand, which was becoming harder and harder as time seemed to drag on. I wanted nothing more than to have her in my arms right now. Every second without her seemed longer and longer.

I realized I was now nearing the edge of the forest, which was now only a few yards away. I inhaled deeply again, closing my eyes as I did to let her scent completely surround and take over me, as I continued to move.

I opened my eyes when I was out of the forest, and smiled again when I realized the direction her scent was taking me. I began to move at vampire speed, getting impatient as I realized I was nearing our cottage. I imaged Bella would be there waiting for me, and I couldn't get there fast enough.

~B POV

When I made it to the cabin I began to hurriedly search for what I needed, smiling when I found it. I grabbed it, and prepared to leave my next clue for Edward. I placed it at the door quickly, and with that I left, shutting the door behind me, planning the next phase of my plan…………………..

~E POV

Finally the cottage came into view and I couldn't hide the excitement or stop the huge grin that spread across my face when I saw it. I was still smiling as I rushed toward the door quickly, trying to remember to be careful so as to not break the handle of the door in my desperate attempt to get to Bella. I twisted the knob as gingerly as I could muster, as my breath was started to come out a bit shaky.

I planned to wrap my arms around her tightly and kiss every inch of her skin when I made it inside to her. I wasn't going to waste time, I missed my Bella dearly and this mere time away from her was killing me. I couldn't stand not having her with me or knowing where she was for any amount of time, she was truly my life and there were just no words or actions to fully express that, but I would continue to try for all eternity. But now I just needed to feel her soft skin and luscious lips against mine. My need was getting worse and worse with each passing second.

I rushed through the cottage in search for my Bella when I did not see her there waiting for me. My grin widened when I headed toward our bedroom, the last place to check, realizing that's where she must be waiting for me. Images of her lying across our bed with her soft brown hair cascading down her shoulders came into my mind. Her scent was strong through the door. I heard no movement inside. I forced myself to slowly turn the knob, trying to drag out the moment for as long as I could stand. My smile quickly disappeared when I saw she was not there. I could tell that she had been here the longest since her sent was strongest in this room.

Her scent was still powerfully strong in the cottage, she had been here mere minutes ago. I looked down at the ground and noticed the footprints caused from walking barefoot in the forest. I followed them and they led back to the front door of the cottage. I noticed a small note I hadn't seen before in my haste to get to Bella, lying there on the floor.

I picked up the note, which smelled strongly of her. It read: COME BACK TO THE FOREST, written in her small hand writing. I let out a groan in disappointment and anticipation that she was not here and that I could not be with her at this very moment.

I quickly left the cottage, off to find my sweet Bella………

A/N: Okay so seriously please tell me what you guys thought, I'm dying to know. My main concern was that Bella may have seemed a little outta character but seriously you gotta think with no conflict and married to Edward she's bound to get braver and more comfortable. She sure did to me in the saga as time went on, especially when she became a vampire. Plus it was HER in the books insisting on the next step in their relationship and trying to make it happen. *Wink* I guess I got a little paranoia even though I love the chapter. Lol! So seriously tell me what you guys thought the reviews did really encourage me to write again so fast and thanks so much to those who took the time to drop me a line. They are truly appreciated and loved! :)
