Chapter 2: Our Special Place
(Edward POV)
We walked to the silver Volvo and I unlocked the doors. We both hopped in and I started the engine. I could hear the low roar that it gave off. Then I heard the click of both of our seatbelts. She smiled at me and I knew she was happy. Her smile just made my day all worth while. No, she made my existence worth while. We rode all the way to her house as she complained about my driving. I pulled up into the driveway, and we got out of the car. The house was the same as the last time I saw it. Still pretty clean, except for the pizza that was left in the living room. She led me up to her room, and I sat down on her neatly made bed.
"What should I wear?" She asked as she opened up her closet.
"You look good in anything, love."
She smiled then she blushed. I looked at her nightstand and saw that old, torn- up copy of Wuthering Heights.
"You aren't reading Wuthering Heights again, are you?" I asked.
"Yes. Just to pass the time away when you are out hunting."
"Remind me to tell Alice that the next time you two go shopping that you buy a few books."
She rolled her eyes. She ended up putting on a pair of jeans and a blue button- up top.
"You look, beautiful, just like a vampire. Now, can we go?"
"Yes. Can I drive though?"
"Well, I wanted to get there and back before tomorrow."
"Ok, fine you can drive."
I wrapped my arms around her and kissed her forehead. We walked downstairs and went to the car. I then realized that the weather was beautiful. The sun was out, but the clouds covered it so that I didn't sparkle. I sped to the spot and we got out, knowing how far it was from there. I lifted her tiny body onto my back and then we were off.
(Bella's POV)
I felt like I was flying. The air hit my face, and it felt cold, but a good cold. I looked to the side and saw the blur of the trees. I had forgotten how green it was here. Seconds later, I could tell that we were slowing down.
"We're here." He said.
I looked up and saw the beautiful green meadow, light shining on it. It gave me flashbacks of the first time we came here. I looked forward to seeing him sparkle again. I walked out onto the meadow and lay down. The bubbling sound of the stream calmed me. I could also hear the birds singing their songs. It was funny how they were all different, just like people. Before I knew it, Edward was sitting next to me. He looked like a God. It always amazed me how shiny he was in the sun.
"I love how you sparkle. It is so amazing."
"You sound shocked, like you haven't seen me in the sun before."
"It's just always so stunning."
I touched his hard, rock- like face. I could tell that it felt good to him. He lay down beside me, and hummed one of the songs he wrote. I listened for a second, and then I could tell that it was the one that was Esme's favorite. The clouds then covered the sun and he no longer sparkled. He kissed me on the lips, making me melt in his arms. I kissed him back but more passionately. I thought that I had probably crossed his 'line' by now, so I pulled away from him.
"Why'd you pull away?" he asked.
"Didn't I cross your 'line'?" I answered, emphasizing the word 'line'.
"Since when were you the responsible one?"
"I don't know. Fine then, kiss me, and make it good."
He kissed me, more fiercely than normal, and I loved it. I got dizzy, but I ignored it. He then went to my neck, and I tried to unbutton my shirt, knowing what he would say. I got to the third button, and he never said anything, so I kept going. I finally got it all the way off and I was surprised that he took his off, too. Before I knew it, we were both fully undressed. Was that wrong? Maybe he decided to not wait any longer. It was so warm outside, that I never needed a blanket. When it was getting darker, we stopped. We got dressed and watched the sunset together.
"We should probably get going now. Charlie is getting worried."
"Okay."
I jumped onto his back and then I knew it would only be a few minutes till we were at the car. I closed my eyes and fell asleep.
(Edward's POV)
I could feel her relax even more and I knew that she was asleep. After a few minutes, we arrived at the car. I laid her down in the backseat, letting her have some room. The car ride back to Charlie's was very quiet. Normally she would have carried on a non- stop conversation. Within twenty minutes, I saw her house. I parked the car in the driveway and carried her in.
"Hello Edward." Charlie said nicely.
"Hello."
"Where did you kids go today?"
"We went on a short hike. She fell asleep in the car."
"Oh. Did you have fun?"
"Yes."
"Would you mind taking her upstairs? My back hurts. I was helping someone move in."
"Okay. Who is moving in?"
"This family with five girls. They moved from Virginia."
"Oh."
I carried her up to her room and laid her down on her bed. I kissed her and headed home.
