****************************************************
~E POV
I rushed back into the forest in search of Bella, feeling excited and anxious. After a while of blurring through the trees, I heard a noise and came to a stop, listening. I went in the direction I had heard the noise come from. There was no one there, but up ahead I could see another small note.
I reached down and quickly picked it up. I laughed when I read what she had written. It said: SLOW DOWN AND LOOK FOR MY CLUES! NO CHEATING!

~B POV
I could hear Edward streaking through the forest, probably following and relying on my scent. I knew he probably wouldn't notice the notes I had left him, as he blurred past everything. So I had to think fast because I still had plans and I didn't want him to find me just yet.
So I quickly scribbled another note, purposefully making my footsteps heard as I went to place my note. When it was placed where I wanted, I silently slipped away, trying to make it so that Edward couldn't tell the direction in which I was going. I could faintly hear him come to stop, after hearing my movements. I smiled as I waited for him to find my note and I began writing my next one……….

~E POV
I moved at a slower pace at Bella's request, carefully examining the forest floor for any more of her notes. Once again it had been a while since I came across any. Finally up ahead I could see another note. I moved at a faster, but human pace to retrieve it. I became curious as to how she was placing the notes there without my knowing, and if she had already placed them.
I had to admit I was actually enjoying this game Bella had created and I made a mental note to reciprocate. She was really using the fact her mind was silent to me to her advantage. It was still frustrating for me, not knowing, especially at this moment, when I wanted so badly to know what was going through her head.
If I could though, I would have been able to now, since she was apparently near and close enough for me to be able to. But that would have ruined her game and plans since I would have been able to know her every move. So at this moment I appreciated that her mind was silent to me, so as to not spoil the effect of her game.
It felt weird not knowing what to expect and having to play "fair", as my brothers would call it. I chuckled, thinking of them. They have always told me my advantage was cheating, since whenever we play a game I am always able to know every move they are planning and counter it, so Emmett especially doesn't enjoy playing games with me, although he can't help but to try. He's a sore loser even though he loses every time, unless I was feeling generous and allowed him to win, tired of his pouting.
He would probably laugh now, at my helplessness in this game and lack of knowledge.
I picked up the next note and I could hear the loud gasp that escaped me, at what it read. It said: TAKE OFF YOUR CLOTHES, in large letters.
I stayed frozen like a statue, still in shock, my eyes never leaving the note. When I was finally able to move again, I began to blink rapidly and I closed my mouth, which had been hanging open. When I had composed myself enough, I began trying to think how I would follow Bella's newest request. I started by unbuttoning the shirt I had been wearing and dropping it on the forest floor. As much as I wanted to follow what was instructed on the note, I felt slightly self conscious to the fact that I would be out in the forest nude moving at a human pace, due to the fact I wasn't sure if I still needed to look for any of her notes.
I laughed at myself, shaking my head, ending my internal debate by resolving to simply having my shirt off until I came upon her next request. I began moving through the forest again once my shirt and shoes were off………

~B POV
I couldn't resist staying near enough to watch Edward's reaction as he found my next note and to see him follow the instruction I had written on it. I made sure to be hidden out of sight, knowing that it was a risk of Edward probably seeing me, but I couldn't bring myself to care enough if he found me at this point. I bit my lip in amusement and anticipation as I watched him stare shocked at the note. I struggled to keep quiet, with my laughter that was threatening to burst.
When he finally pulled his eyes away from the note and seemed to gain control of himself again, I saw that he was stalling. Then he began slowly unbuttoning his shirt. He dropped it to the ground as I looked over his beautifully exposed skin, sparkling in the sunlight, with a faint flush. Once his shirt was off he froze again.
He looked as if he was thinking about something, and concentrating as he stared at the ground unmoving again, then suddenly he laughed shaking his head.
I could feel the confusion cross my face, then it was replaced with worry when I thought that he had figured out I was there. I couldn't move from my spot though, as I continued to just stare at him. His laughter was short and then I saw he bent to untie his shoes, never looking in my direction. Relief washed through me as I relaxed and watched Edward as he began taking off his shoes.
That relief immediately disappeared when I saw him heading off through the forest again with simply his shoes and shirt off. I scowled at his retreating figure, reaching for my note pad and quickly scribbling down another note for him. I was shocked that he had chose to ignore what I'd asked, but there was no way he was getting off that easily with this one, especially since I was standing here nude myself.
I wouldn't give him anymore instruction until he followed this one. My scowl had quickly faded and turned into a smirk. I rushed ahead at vampire speed leaving the note for him to find and then I headed off to put the next phase of my plan into action, wondering if I should stay and make sure he followed through this time………

~E POV
As I moved forward looking for my next note, I could smell Bella's scent in a different direction from where I was headed. I immediately changed and went down the different path. A few feet into the new path I saw another tiny note, and smiled as I picked it up.
My laughter erupted when I looked at the note. It read: TAKE OFF ALL YOUR CLOTHES!
It was written in huge letters again, but this time underlined. My eyebrows rose at the realization that Bella had been nearby watching. I was genuinely surprised that I had not realized she was there and so close.
With a sigh I complied to her request this time fully. Once all my clothes were gone I continued moving through forest at a faster pace.
Luckily not too long after the last note there was another one. I quickly picked it up reading it and a huge grin broke across my face at what it read. In small handwriting it said: come find me. I moved with vampire speed through the forest now and I realized her strong scent was leading me back to our meadow…………………………………………………..
