Chapter 4

EPOV

I walked to the front door first. Being honest with myself I would love to have walked behind her. I could picture the back end being just as sensual to watch as the front.

"I would offer you a drink but I'm not sure the fridge stocks anything we'd like" she chuckled slightly. Her laugh was like note, the softest note I would ever have the pleasure of playing.

"No, I can imagine it doesn't. That does sound like an appealing business prospect for vampires though. Bottled blood."

She wrinkled her nose "It just sounds so disgusting when you put it like that"

We talked lightly for a while. I didn't want to come crashing down on her with what I believed to be Alice's thought process of what she had seen. Between her comments and Jaspers and the way I seemed to be accommodating a huge warm space in my chest I had a pretty good feeling what she was insinuating.

Only too soon did the conversation take a full circle and I found myself at the point of no return trying to think of the best way to phrase my thoughts without her running a mile.

"Bella, I think I understand slightly what Alice was saying today. Certain things both her and Jasper have said made me feel like they have discussed it previously." I was careful not to alarm her with my words they were going to be pretty intense for a 24 hour period of knowing each other.

"Alice said she saw you coming, she said she had seen your future based on the decisions you had made. She said that we were both in the same place. I've never had a mate Bella, no-one has even come close to being what I would consider an addition to my life. However, when I saw you today and we began talking, learning about you and your life, and you ours I felt like something inside me had changed. You know as well as I do change isn't easy or normal for our kind. But when it happens it's consistent, permanent. I think you've changed me Bella, I think based on the involuntary decision I made to ask you questions about your personal life, Alice saw my future and you were part of it. Please correct me if I'm wrong or completely alone or conceited but I believe you may have found something similar happen to you today? Despite its quick nature you feel me in your future and also made an involuntary decision to have me as part of your life. Hence Alice's vision of seeing where we both stand."

I would have given anything I possessed to know her thoughts right then. It that one instant once I had stopped talking.

She looked at me inquisitively. Something deep inside me knew I was right.

"I think it's fair to say something....slotted...in to place today when I was with your family." She answered

I smiled at her not really knowing what to do or say. But it didn't feel wrong to stand there with her. Having discussed potentially the rest of my life with a girl I had known for a mere 24 hours I felt strangely light. She smiled softly at me too.

"Edward, I think Alice is right. I think your right. But I think this situation is a little crazy. I'm not going to lie to you this morning in the car park when I looked at you I felt something inside me change. It's like something in my chest felt warm and full. But I've known you for one day and it's just crazy!"

She looked at me, her eyes were questioning everything. I wished I had the answers for her.

I pinched the bridge of my nose and shut my eyes. Everything seemed to fit into place in my brain when I closed my eyes.

So, Bella was a fairly new vampire, alone with no-one to really call her family. She had moved to Forks, met us and now we were both having romantic feelings towards each other. All in the space of 24 hours. It wasn't difficult to understand, it was difficult to wrap your head around.

It was now 3am and I realised we had both been pondering our thoughts for over an hour, not moving or saying anything. This was a hazard of being a vampire when surrounded by humans. We could stand still as stone for hours, not fidgeting or needing to adjust our legs or feet. Just silent.

"Erm Bella" I asked softly

"Hmm" she responded lifting her beautiful face towards me.

"If it's ok with you I'd like to spend some time alone with you. Just so we can talk, try and work out this situation a little better. We could spend the weekend together?"

"Sure, I'd like that too. But let's try not to talk too much about this situation let's try and just let things flow?" Her eyes were pleading with me to not make this awkward or any more difficult that it already was.

"Sure. So I'll see you tomorrow? Would you like a lift to school?"

"Well if you don't mind I'd really appreciate it" she said

I said goodbye and went back out to my car, getting in the front seat I realised just how relaxed I felt. I slid into the car, turned on the radio and just listened. I didn't feel the need to try and block out thoughts, or plan the next boring hours of my life before school. I had never felt this way before, never felt so calm and collected. I touched my chest where the warmth had been growing since she'd set eyes on me. I felt happy, content.
I already couldn't wait to see her again.

I watched as he rolled his car out of my driveway. I could see the smile playing on the edge of his lips as he left and recognise the same one mirrored on my face. He was absolutely divine, he made my heart swell he made my thoughts crazy. I felt like every girl in high school at the moment. Desiring a boy, wandering if he felt the same. Although I already knew this one did, whether it was fate, coincidence, luck or just a blessing in disguise I was grateful right then for having moved to Forks.

I busied myself with tidying the house. I hadn't seen Charlie since my change and he had obviously had less and less time and energy to sort things before he died. I wandered upstairs into his room and although feeling slightly morbid (how ironic!) I began pulling shirts from his wardrobe to separate them between charity shop and rubbish.

It was sad and I reminisced what I could remember of him, but I felt slightly guilty that at that moment my thoughts were consumed by Edward and his amazing family. I thought of things we could do all weekend, together, alone.

The idea of being alone with Edward sent a pleasant warm shiver from my hair to my toes.

So now they can start having fun! Don't get too mad if the chapters aren't updated for a while, I have exams and Im working hard for them! BUT! I then have a whole month of and cant wait to dedicate lots of time to this!
