Chapter 2
(EPOV)
"No Bella."
I couldn't let her do it. Take off on her own, running from the Volturi. The very thought of it made me sick to my very core. How could she even propose such an idea; couldn't she see how foolish it would be to runaway by herself.
"Edward," her voice broke me out of my internal rantings "it's the only thing that's right. I won't let you or your family get hurt. And because you don't want to change me, this is the only right thing left to do."
"Bella, if you are leaving then you are leaving with me." I stopped for a moment changing my tactics, maybe I could guilt her into taking me with her. I mean of course I could just stop her from going but we still had the problem of her trying to fix the problem using another…method. "Bella" I started slowly "I can't live without you, I won't survive if you leave."
Her expression changed immediately. Her eyes softened for an instant but then just as quickly, she looked pained. I didn't want to hurt her but if this was the only way to make her see reason then I would do it. Anything to ensure my Bella's safety.
"Edward, I can't take you away from your family. They need you just as much as I do. Maybe even more don't you think that six peoples needs is more important than ones."
She was right what would I do to my family if I left? How would they take this? Would they let me go? Would they let Bella go? But we didn't have to go as yet. They weren't coming we had time and plenty of it.
"Bella, we don't have to go - "
"Edward…"
"No, let me finish. I mean we don't have to go as yet. We have time. The Volturi aren't looking for you now. And when they decide to come for you, Alice will see it in a vision and warn us so we can go then. Let's just take it one step at a time."
She was silent probably searching in her mind for some way to contradict me, but she couldn't. She knew that there was nothing to worry about if the Volturi didn't want to find her; and it was much safer for her seeing as Victoria – the name automatically set off a fierce snarl – was still trying to avenge her mate.

His words made sense. Damn! I hated when he got me like that.
If he would just change me…but thinking about that made me realize. I didn't want him to change me. I mean I wanted to be a vampire but, did I really want him to do something that repulsed him so much. The look on his face when Aro talked of changing me hurt me, to know that the thought of me being a vampire was so disgusting to him. My resolve was to never ask that of Edward, I would never again ask him that, no matter how much I wanted it.
"So what do we do now? Continue as if nothing ever happened?" I was genuinely curious. How do I just get over months and months of pain, the fact that a powerful vampire family wanted me dead or changed (which was never going to happen) and the fact that I may be grounded for about an eternity.
"We…start anew. Fix all the things that are wrong and try to move on with our lives." His words made it sound so easy but thinking about it all it seemed almost impossible.
I didn't need this right now. I closed the gap between us and pressed my body into his relishing in the chill that ran through me. He lifted my chin up to his face and kissed me in earnest. It was indescribable. My head was swimming, I forgot my own name. As he pulled away from me all I could manage was a very breathy "Wow"
"How's that for starting anew?" he smiled my favourite crooked smile.
"I could definitely get used to that."
I know it was very short but it was just a filler.
So tell me what you think what I should change or any ideas you, I'm very, very curious.
