AN: Um, yea, I changed the title because the characters in this story took over and decided to make their own plot. Sorry, lol. This story will no longer be about piano lessons like I originally planned because Edward did something that I didn't want him to do yet...Read to find out :)
The Day I Died
Chapter 2: Did I wake you?
I was sitting on a beach back in phoenix, where I used to live before my family went off and decided to move to Forks, Washington.
I used to always go to the beach when I was in Phoenix; the fresh, slightly salty, air really helped me get my thoughts straight.
All there was out here on the glistening sandy beach was my thoughts and I, oh and of course the relaxing sound of the crashing waves.
But, this time was different…I could feel it…
Someone was staring at me.
I looked to my right to see Edward sitting next to me.
"Edward," I whispered endearingly, for some reason, as we locked eyes with each other.
"Bella," He whispered back with a smile on his face. He leaned over to me, stopping when our lips were inches apart, and then suddenly, I woke up!
I opened up my eyes and the first thing that I noticed was that it was still dark out.
I then looked at my clock to find that it was only 11pm!
Both my parents would be asleep by now.
My thoughts were confirmed when I heard a chorus of snores issuing from their room.
I decided that I couldn't go back asleep now, so I stood up from my bed and went over to look out of my window at the beautiful night sky which was amazingly clear, a bit odd when you live in one of the cloudiest cities in the whole United States.
That's when I felt it…someone was staring at me again, only this time it wasn't a dream.
I turned around to find that a person was standing right behind me.
I tried to scream, but the person, whoever it was for it was too dark in my room to see, got to me first and put a hand over my mouth.
"Calm down Bella," my attacker whispered to me with a voice like honey.
"What do you want?" Well, that's what I tried to say, but instead, since his hand was clamped over my mouth, it came out as "Whamph doph youph wantph?"
"Ssshh, don't talk." The mysterious night attacker hushed me, "All will be explained soon enough, but first you have to come with me."
I tried to scream through his hand, but it didn't work.
"I would rather have you come with me willingly Bella…" he trailed off.
All of the sudden, the lights came on and I got the first glimpse of my attacker.
It was none other than my mother's new piano student Edward!
I gasped through his hand.
He pulled his hand away from my mouth, probably seeing that I was dazzled by the mere sight of him and that I wouldn't scream anymore. I was too confused to scream…
"Bella, come with me please," Edward's silky smooth voice dazzled me yet again as he held out one of his hands turned palm up.
He was letting me decide! I looked up at his face and just knew, deep down, that I wanted to go with him.
Edward Cullen was a mystery to me and I was determined to find out what was so different about him.
So, I did the one thing that my brain kept screaming at me to not do and rested my hand on his upturned one.
He smiled widely, a true one, not forced or fake.
The next thing I knew I was on Edward's back and we were traveling at the speed of light through a thick forest.
I let out a little scream when my head almost made contact with a tree branch.
I heard laughter ring out around me and noticed that this beautiful sound was being made by the creature I was on.
He couldn't be a human, right? So, obviously now, to me, he was a creature. But, I didn't care because all I knew now was that I liked him, way more than I should have at the moment.
After what seemed like half an hour, Edward stopped suddenly and put me down.
I looked over to Edward with a look of confusion to see that he held one of guilt and sadness.
We were in the middle of the forest….why would he bring me here?
"I'm sorry Bella." Those three words sent me into panic mode.
"What for?" I asked as I backed up a little from him.
Had he brought me out here to rape me or, worse, kill me! My thoughts went wild with all the reasons he could have brought me out here for.
"Bella," He said again as he walked closer to me, "I have been looking for you for my whole existence."
Now I was officially freaked out! I backed up a little more, but my curse of clumsiness came back and I tripped over a tree root.
Before I hit the ground, I felt a pair of cold arms surround me and stop me.
I looked up into Edward's eyes. Why was he so cold?
Edward saw the questioning gaze that my eyes held.
"All will be explained in three days, after your transformation."
What the…? Transformation?
The next thing I knew, he was biting my neck.
Edward's biting my neck!
That was my last thought as a human…because that was when the searing pain kicked in.
The last thing I heard was Edward's voice whispering "I'm sorry" over and over again.
