Bella
Date night was every night at my house. I waited eagerly for Charlie to leave the room, to leave Edward and me alone.
The minute he left, I felt his mouth on mine. His sticky, sweet smell filled my nose, and his taste filled my mouth, screaming for attention. I knew his fangs were close, nevertheless I just had to move a little closer, had to let my tongue roll over his teeth.
All to soon, he pulled away. I pouted and opened my eyes. He laughed and smiled my favorite, crooked smile.
Against his will, I reached up and kissed him again. I felt cold fangs on my neck and shivered with pleasure. Then, I felt a small prick in my neck. I stared into the mirror over the kitchen sink. My hair was a little messy on the left, and my eyeliner had smudged. But only one change really mattered. A single drop of blood, crimson and scarlet and ruby, was the center of my world. I was going to die.
Edward dragged me away from the table and out of my chair. I gasped, as it hurt to be grabbed so. Before I knew it, I was on his back and we were running. Sprinting faster than I was sure the laws of time and space allowed.
Absolute trust in this God aside, where was he taking me? The green blur on both sides of me indicated that we were in one of Fork's boreal forests. The blood which had been but a mere drop before was now quickly streaming down my neck and drying in midair as it flew out behind me. Something made me wonder how Edward was so easily able to resist the liquid he had called heroin before. Now I realize, he couldn't.
As soon as he had started, he stopped. The warm trust and heart-turned-to-butter feelings that usually accompanied Edward's presence were no longer here, instead I felt a new feeling of pure terror and dread. I found my voice in seconds.
"Edward, what's going on?"
"I am so terribly sorry, Love," he said in a voice barely above a whisper.
I tried to run, but the minute my right foot hit the ground, I was dragged back. Edward was too strong. I had once admired his strength and power, but it wasn't nearly as attractive once it was being used against me.
Then fangs pierced my neck. The fear was replaced with searing pain. I was burning, drowning, freezing, and suffocating all at once. I screamed for help, but no one could hear me through the dense forest, besides maybe a bird or deer.
The moment had been so perfect less than a minute ago. I didn't understand how it could go so wrong.
I didn't think that he would ever hurt me. It didn't seem real. My life didn't flash before my eyes, I didn't have time to reflect on what I had done wrong. I just shrieked as the agony continued.
I welcomed the blackness when it came. I felt my tense muscles relax, the wet sucking sounds and moans made by Edward quieted, and my pained heart was numbing. I rose from my body and turned to see it, the strength and spice drained from my eyes. I slowly walked, away from my body and towards the darkness. My inner angst was leaving me, and waves of peace calmed my mind. I walked on to the dark.
