Wow. Fanfiction is super hard to figure out the first time loading everything.
Chapter 2: Good Intentions
Disclaimer: I own none of this. S.M. owns it all.
Edward's POV
Poor Carlisle. I had caused him more trouble, than use. His creation of me was made with good intentions. Good intentions that never happened. Carlisle was certainly most disappointed when I left him. He had high hopes for me, and to accompany him on many journeys. But this wasn't the life, I wanted, no, I'd rather die than be like this. I had to get into the next town, soon. I ran. This I would miss. Running. Running with such speed like this. It was freeing. It was the one thing I enjoyed about being a……vampire. It was twilight once again, when I entered into town. I had decided to keep out of sight until morning. I walked down back roads to keep myself occupied concentrating on the path and anything to avoid human's thoughts consuming my brain. I turned upon another back road and heard footsteps. They were light footsteps. I walked into a nearby woods to avoid confrontation. Yet, the small steps followed me. Curiosity was consuming me. Making my thirst almost impossible to feel.
I turned around, to see a small girl about age 15, following behind me. Her dark brown hair cascaded down her back to about mid-back. Her brown eyes stared at me with such intensity, it almost made me want to look away. When I tried to concentrate on her thoughts, all was blank. Nothing. Her face turned solemn when she saw me. She seemed deep in thought. Thoughts which I couldn't read. The longer I stood there, my thirst came back to me. It came back to me strong. It crippled my mind and body. I could not believe how strong it was. The burn rippled throughout my whole body. I never wanted any blood like I wanted hers.
Her tattered skirt blew as the wind picked up. There was a silence between us, but not at all awkward. I stared at her biting my lip to ignore the burn. She was beautiful. She was unlike anyone I had ever seen. She stared back at me. She took a step closer to me. I took one step back as she did so. A small smile broke out across her lips, which seemed contagious to mine. I smiled back. Edward a voice called inside my head Edward what are you doing? Get away from her. I broke our stare and walked away. She stood at the same spot just staring at me. By the time I got up the nerve to look back, she was gone. Gone. She was so beautiful. Edward get your thoughts away from her. She's a human, you're a monster. For that moment, I was able to overcome the monster in me, and take in her sheer beauty. I wonder if I'd see her again before I died. I really did hope so.
I wandered deeper into the woods searching for deer. Well, Edward at least your keeping the deer population down, I joked with myself.
Bella's POV
I had gotten kicked out of the house. I'm such a klutz, I swear I trip over everything within a 100 feet of me. My mother had lost her temper when I spilled the soup she was trying to make. The humor in it was I tripped over the broom I had sat down, to go get the soup. M y father only laughed at me. My mother said I wasn't good confined to small spaces, and to go pick berries for dessert. I meekly nodded and nearly ran out of the house. I had longed to go into the woods anyway. It was much cooler, and quiet. The silence I desired for after all, with two screaming younger brothers, silence is like a gift. I slipped the tie out of my hair letting it fall down my back. I threw my shoes at the back of the house before walking down the road. I loved walking bare footed. Feeling the earth beneath my feet it was like an irreplaceable experience. I walked down a back road and saw a young man. I had never seen him before and to me that meant he was probably up to no good. I followed him into a nearby woods. I could hear my mother's voice yelling at me in my head. ISABELLA MARIE SWAN YOU DO NOT GO INTO THOSE WOODS AND FOLLOW THAT MAN! HE COULD HURT YOU AND THEN WHAT WOULD YOU DO? I pushed the thoughts aside. There was something about him. Something he radiated that attracted me. I needed to know more about him. I walked lightly behind him, dodging all potential obstacles that I could trip over.
I jumped a little when he turned around. He stared at me emotionlessly. Wow, his eyes were gorgeous. They're unlike anything I'd ever seen. Gorgeous. He kept silent and so I decided it best to do the same. The presence of him made me a bit timid. I stepped closer to him, to hint a gesture of friendliness. Immediately, after he took a step back. He was a perfect being. In my tattered skirt and messy hair I felt inhuman. I smiled and then he returned the look. Lost in thought, I hadn't notice him turn and start to walk away. I took a step to follow him until I heard my father's voice call from the wood's entrance. I turned and began to run back, I guess a small lie wouldn't hurt. My father waited impatiently as I hurried out of the wood's.
"Where are you're berries" He questioned.
"I didn't find any edible ones." I whispered.
"Try telling that to your mother." he grumbled.
I followed meekly behind him, glancing every now and again back to the forest where I first saw him. I hope I see him again, soon. If not at least before I died.
Carlisle POV
Edward had been gone for weeks. That worried me quite a bit. I had created him to be a vampire with intention of him being a vegetarian and becoming a functional part of society as much as possible. However, from talk around town, that was a failed attempt. I had heard a teenage boy was killed by a vampire in a town not far from here. The boy was walking along to chop some wood, and was suddenly just killed. Well at least that's what a group of boys who said they were walking nearby said. Highly unlikely story. I would certainly hope Edward wouldn't kill that fast and not in daylight. I had to find him, for his sake and mine. What was I thinking? Creating a family? I vowed to keep that idea off my mind for awhile. At least until I got my newborn vampire under control. Poor Edward. I have to find him before something really bad happens.
Edward POV
I had killed a few deer, but the yearning for her blood lingered. It lingered on and on. I wouldn't kill her though. Would I? The "human" side of me argued in favor of keeping her. She was so beautiful. Her eyes were so enticing, the way her hair waved it made me want to run my fingers through it. The more I pictured her, the more inappropriate the thoughts became. I shook my head as if to shake them off. The vampire side of me, though thirsted for her blood. It kept my throat burning for her. Edward it would be so easy. I thought. She's so tiny, she wouldn't even know if you killed her fast. Then Edward this huge temptation would be gone. After all you're going to kill yourself why not give yourself a going away present.
How selfish of me to think that. How selfish of me to give in to that side, but that's exactly what I did. I was going to find her tonight before morning when I would reveal myself, and kill her. Kill her. The "human" side of me screamed out in anger, but my newborn thirst for blood outweighed that.
Reviews would make my day. I need feedback on this story.
