As summer was moving on, and it was almost time for July to start transitioning into August, our entire group of six people became one huge bond. It was like a tribe, or like our own clique- I guess you could call it that.

I began to slowly get to know Edward better, sometimes the two of us going down to the beach, and just sitting down on the soft warm sand, and just relaxing and talking to one another.

Our topics of conversation ranged from our likes and dislikes, to what we want to learn in life. Edward was very interested on my pictures. I had shown him one of the pictures that I had drawn and colored in of the island when it was sundown.

"Bella, this is…..truly exquisite. No words could describe how truly gifted you are…" He had told me.

And of course, me being me, turned beet red, probably blushing for a few minutes, that's when the redness began to swell down just a tiny bit.

I had never thought of taking my drawings into consideration as a future career for myself. Of course, my mother and…father had always thought that I had true talent, and I thought my pictures were quite good, but what were the odds of mine actually getting somewhere? These were the subjects I thought about when I would think about my drawing and life.

Of course, Edward encouraged me to get off the island and go to an art school, preferably college. But I didn't have time for that, or money, or just…the heart to leave my mother alone on this island. Ever since dad left, I had promised that I would stay here, and help her out. By any means necessary, too.

I was on the beach again today, now drawing a beautiful white boat, that swayed in the water, the white paint glistening off its exterior, the sun making it glow. I looked at the finer details, the silver railings that surrounded the perimeter of the boat, the oak colored wood panels that covered the floor of the decks.

I got out my pad and colored pencils, and spent most of my day drawing there. I liked the way the sun hit the boat at the exact angle, making the boat seem more majestic, more real.

I heard footsteps behind me, walking over and stopping right at my back.

"Hey. I knew I would find you here." It was Edward.

"Of course…" I sighed, "Where else would I be?"

"With Alice and Rosalie?" He asked, sitting down next to me.

"Their both spending some quality time with Jasper and Emmett, and personally, I don't even want to know what they're doing."

I shuttered, and noticed out of the corner of my eye that Edward shuttered too.

"Ah, true. I know what you mean." He agreed, "What are you drawing today, Ms. Swan?"

I blushed, looking down at the simple sketch that was scribbled across my paper.

"Its that boat." I pointed out to where the boat was tied up to, just off the pier.

"It's excellent, Bella."

"Oh hush, it's nothing but a simple sketch."

Edward's brows furrowed together. "That's how all masterpieces start, though. And you have so much potential, Bella. This is your dream, isn't it?"

I didn't answer his question right away, looking off into the spanning sea in front of me.

I looked back at Edward now, looking into his eyes. I searched them quickly, wondering if he had a certain motive he had to actually get a specific answer out of me.

"I'm serious though, Bella," he continued on, "you are…amazing, to say the least. You have a wonderful hand at drawing…and a beautiful voice, if I do say so myself."

"Thank you, Edward." That was all I said to him, before my glance turned back to the ocean that was my previous sight.

"I have a dream…a song to sing,

To help me cope with everything

If you see the wonder of a fairytale

You can take the future, even if you fail

I believe in angels…

Something good in everything I see

I believe in angels…

When I know the time is right for me…

I'll cross the stream…

I have a dream…."

I shot a glance back at Edward, who was now looking at me attentively. I wanted to get through to him, let him know that I DO have a dream, but I can't do anything about it right now. It's just not the right time.

Like the song said, I'll cross the stream. But only when the time is right.

"I have a dream, a fantasy,

To help me through reality,

And my destination makes it worth the while

Pushing through the darkness still another mile

I believe in angels

Something good in everything I see

I believe in angels

When I know the time is right for me…

I'll cross the stream…

I have a dream….

I'll cross the stream,

I have a dream…"

"Bella - listen to me-"Edward started off, but I quickly put my hands on his face. I pushed his cheeks together, so it would be harder for him to actually speak.

His words sounded muffled, and now he was quiet, looking at me directly in the eyes.

"No Edward, you listen to me. I know I'm stubborn, but I know what I'm doing. I have wonderful and exciting dreams that I would love to happen for me in the future, but right now…I have a duty to my family, and to this island. I have a life here…it may not be much, but you all must understand, that I made a commitment, and I can't just break it!"

"Bella…" Edward started, but I cut him off again.

"I have a dream, a song to sing

To help me cope with anything

If you see the wonder of a fairytale,

You can take the future, even if you fail…

I believe in angels

Something good in everything I see

I believe in angels

When I know the time is right for me…

I'll cross the stream,

I have a dream…

I'll cross the stream,

I have a dream…"

I ended the note, with leaning into Edward a tiny bit. I closed my eyes, and kissed him softly on the cheek.

Once I gave him the one thing that had me a bit nervous, to be honest, I cleaned up all my art supplies and put them back in my bag. I slung it over my shoulder and got up on my feet.

"Where are you going?" Edward asked, his voice a bit dazed. I wonder why…

"Going to go walking around…just have a lot to think about." I told him, turning around and beginning to walk away.

"Wait!" I heard his voice get louder as he thrusted himself off the ground and almost slamming into me.

"Sorry about that," he said, getting his balance, "listen, I know that I must be just, pressuring you, but I don't want you to think that. I'm just telling you that I believe in you, just like you believe in the angels. I want you to know, that I'm here for you, like I've told you before. You are so special and unique, of course in a good way, and I just want everyone to know that."

I had a small tear going down the side of my cheek, but Edward's hand quickly came and wiped it away.

"Thanks.." I mumbled to him, trying to contain my sobs.

I didn't want to cry in front of him, but I felt so emotional at the moment. Just about my feelings for my future, my feelings about him. Oh, how my feelings for him were so strong.

I hugged him tightly to my body, my arms wrapping around his neck.

At first, he seemed a little startled, but his arms then wove around my body and grabbed me around the waist. We held onto each other for a few moments, enjoying out bodies being so close together.

We pulled back, both of us looking deeply into each others eyes. Edward's were so captivating, I wonder what he was thinking at that moment.

"Well," he said a bit awkwardly, "I'll leave you alone then. We can just…talk later?"

"Yes!" I answered a bit too quickly, "I just want an hour or two alone, that's all."

"Ok," he said, walking back up the cliff.

Once he was out of sight, I threw myself down again. Why didn't anything happen between us? We had known each other for a few weeks already!

I wasn't sure what was happening, but I really wanted something to spark, or just…a clue, a hint, a small surprise, letting me know that there was going to be something happening soon.

I closed my eyes, leaning back onto the sand, but hair probably being mixed with thousands of the little grain.

All I could see was Edward in my mind. Whenever I saw him, thought of him, felt my emotions for him, my heart would get happy, and flutter extremely fast.

And honestly…I have no idea how much longer it would be until I actually made some sort of move on him!

I could feel my drowsiness come over me, the blackness taking over my mind. The sun's rays were keeping my body nice and warm, as I drifted off into slumber land.

Ok, so like, I hope you guys liked that chapter!
