A/N Ok, so some of you said you thought I should continue this story. This first follow up chapter might seema little choppy, but I promise, the others won't be. Reviews and constructive critiscism are always welcome. Enjoy!
Alec P.O.V.
Three months ago my life ended. I was "killed" in action. I thought I was dead for sure, when some stranger came up to me and bit me. The next thing I know, I'm on fire. Three days later the pain stopped, and I woke up in a clearing still in my fatigues, which I've been in ever since. Well those and my tags. It took a few days for me to figure out what I was. A vampire. I went to my own funeral, how sick is that, and watched my girl, my Rennie cry, broken hearted. It made my dead heart break. But for her sake I've tried to leave her alone, let her have a better life without was three months ago though, now I'm standing in the woods, watching m angel cry again. And then she says she loves me. I can't help it. I say I love you back. And I swear she hears me. And that's it, I can't take it anymore. I blur up to her. "Hey Rennie baby."
Renesme P.O.V.
Oh my God. Alec is in front of me somehow. "A, Alec? Alec!" I throw myself at him and he catches me as I sob into his shoulder, unable to belive that he's alive, and he's here. It's how I miss his red eyes at first. And his cold, rock hard skin. I recoil, scarred.
"Alec? What are you?"
Alec P.O.V.
I stand there not breathing, and all I want to do is cry. Because of what happened to me, to her.
"Rennie, I'm a vampire. " I say, and wait for her to run screaming. But she doesn't. She just stands there, still as a statue. Finally she seems to unfreeze.
"Alec. Oh God. I'm so, so sorry. I wish this hadn't happened to you."
"Why aren't you running scared Rennie?"
Renesme' P.O.V.
When he asks that, I can't help it, I launch into my history and tell him everything. When I finish, he sits there stunned for a minute. Then he pulls me to him.
"Renesme, baby." He murmurs, and it's like he never left, never died. We're suddenly all over each other. Clothes fall to the ground, and it doesn't matter that we're in the woods all that matters is each other as we finally, truly reconnect. Afterwards, he just holds me, murmuring 'My Angel' over and over again. After awhile, the sun starts to rise. I know Jake will be looking for me soon. And Alec seems to sense this, pulling me closer to him. I know I need to tell Jacob, and everyone else.
"Alec."
"Yes?"
" I have to go. I need to tell Jacob and my family. "
"I'm coming with you." He says and his tone leaves no room for argument. I just nod as we get dressed.
"Okay. But be careful. If I lost you again..." I can't finish the sentence, my heart breaking at the thought of it.
"Shhh, baby, you will never lose me. Ever." He says.
I look down at my hand, with Jake's engagement ring on it, and I take it off and pull Alec's out of my pocket. He smiles when he sees it and puts it on my finger. And suddenly, I know that no matter what happens next, Alec and I will make it.
