Chapter 3 Edward
The week went by in a blur and before I knew it, it was Friday and I was in my truck on my way home. Alice caught me at school to let know she would be over to help me pack. Then we would leave on our trip after dinner. When Alice got there I realized that her helping me pack was actually her going shopping buying all my clothes and then helping me put them in suitcase which she also bought. We talked about me being careful and that she would only try to see if there was going to be any trouble in my future. Alice said she would be back before dinner and she said Edward was hunting and would be ready when I got there.
While I was making Charlie's dinner I thought of something that never crossed my mind when I planned this. I had to sit down and think what if they wanted sex, I mean I am ready but with both of them maybe this isn't a good idea, I thought. Maybe I should make it clear from the beginning no sex. What if I want to have sex? O god I am sitting at the table talking to myself. What the hell suck it you're a big girl.
Then the phone rang and scared the piss outta me. "Hello, Umm Hello is anyone there" I said.
"Bella Jacob told me what was going on and I know we haven't always gotten along but if you want me to help you get ready next weekend or if you just want someone to talk to I am here ok."
I wasn't sure but the voice on the other end sounded a lot like Leah. "Leah" I said. "Yeah Bella its Me." she said sounding a little ashamed. "Well I just wanted to let you know that if you wanted my help just call me ok."
"Sure Leah that would be great it would be nice to talk to someone who knows Jake like I do." We talked a little more and made plans for next Friday night. After I hung up I looked at the clock and realized I only had an hour to finish dinner and get ready to leave. I shoved the lasagna is the oven and made a quick salad. Then I ran upstairs to jump in the shower. I pulled my hair back and put on the clothes Alice picked out for me. I ran downstairs as Charlie opened the door. "Bella, are you still here?" he yelled through the house.
"Yeah dad I'm in the kitchen and dinner is just out ready, I think Alice is going to join us." I yelled back. "Ok I think she just pulled up." His voice lowered as he got closer to the kitchen. "Wow Bells that smells great!" he said.
Alice joined us in the kitchen and we ate and talked. Charlie asked where we were going to stay, and told us to make sure we have an emergency kit in the car. We finished eating and I washed the dishes, then I hugged Charlie bye and Alice and I left.
When we pulled up at the Cullen's house Edward was waiting. Alice got out of the car and yelled back bye before running into the house. I watched Edward as he walked to the car and if I didn't know him the way I did I would not have notice the nervousness I saw. He was excited and happy to be doing this but he was nervous. It was kind of cute.
"So where are we headed to this weekend?" I asked as he hit the highway. "Well my love that is for me to know and you to find out." He laughed as he hit the gas.
We talked for a couple hours while he drove and around midnight I feel asleep. "Bella, Bella my love we are here come inside a get comfortable" Edward whispered as he helped me out of the car.
"Where are we?" I said sleepily.
"Well Esme built this place for me when she first joined the family so I would have somewhere to go when her and Carlisle wanted some alone time." He smiled and kissed my forehead.
When we walked in the little cottage everything looked normal. Edward turned to me and said "Bella, I am going to tell you something and you have to promise to stay calm and just relax ok." He said a little shaky.
"Umm what's going on Edward" I said.
"Bella, I love you and I can't lose you so I have decided to give you what you want" he was saying as we walked through the door to the next room.
This room was different it didn't even look like it belonged in a house. It was cold there was a small chair and table. On the table there was a bowl of ice and a stack of white rags. Next to the chair was a bed. At first the bed looked normal but then I saw the straps, the kind that holds you down so you can't move. I looked at Edward then. "Bella, I am going to … to turn you." he said this like it was hurting him.
I couldn't believe what I had just heard he was going to change me, I could feel my heart it started beating like it knew it only had some many beats left. "Really, you promise!" I said excitedly. "Wait I need to explain all of this before we make a final decision. First, if we are going to do this we have to start soon, which means are weekend together will be over. Second, the bed is for you, I will have to strap you in for your own safety, you see this is very painful, the venom, as it goes through your body it can literally drive you insane. It will fill like your being burnt at the stake, that's what the ice and rags are for I will do what I can to help with the pain. Last, I have three bags of blood it would be better if you didn't even try them, but just in case.
Are you sure this is what you want Bella." He said as he finished. "Yes, Edward let's get started now we don't have time to argue about this."I said in a rush not giving myself time to think. I walked over to the bed and before I could sit I heard Edward say, take your clothes off Bella they will only cause you pain later.
As I undressed Edward sat in the chair with his head in his hands mumbling to himself. When I got up on the bed I strapped my legs down and then laid back closed my eyes and waited for Edward to do the rest. I felt a sheet go over me and then his lips were at my ear. "I love you, Bella" he whispered as he titled me head.
The door burst into a million pieces. "No, Edward don't you will kill her I've seen it." Alice screamed. Then Edward was gone and Alice was unstrapping me and handing me clothes to put on. "Come on Bella I will take you back to the house from what I can see Edward plans to be gone for a while and you have no other way to get home.
