Chapter 6

I woke in the morning with a smile on my face. A part of me knew this was wrong but I ached for him.

Alice had come into my room to get me dressed for today; Jacob was taking me out again, great.

Jacob insisted I wear a dark blue velvet dress which the corset pulled in tighter by the waist. I was finding it hard to breath.

"Will that be all Miss?"

"Yes thank you Alice, now go away and be with that man you have secretly been with"

She gasped at me

"Miss Swan please I didn't mean to…"

"Alice its fine I won't tell a soul, I've seen the way you two look at each other there's definitely love there"

She smiled "You really think he loves me?"

"Of course, now go on"

She giggled

"O and Alice?"

"Yes Miss"

"2 things one please call me Bella and two you have the rest of the day off, I know Jasper has today off also"

"O thank you m…Bella" she hugged me and skipped out of the room

"Ah Isabella how are you?" Jacob asked me

"Fine Jacob, and yourself?"

"I am also well Isabella, please let us walk"

We were walking by a ship merchant when I began to talk

"Jacob?"

"Hm" he said not taking his eyes of the ships

"Do you love me?"

He looked at me in shock

"Of course I do Isabella why would you think opposite"

"No Jacob I mean are you in love with me?"

He stood there for a moment but then kissed me lightly

"Never doubt the love I feel for you Bella, ever"

I nodded and bit my lip

"Do you love me?" he asked

I looked at him knowing not what to say "Yes Jacob but…" I was just about to say I love him but more like a brother.

"Very well then that's all I needed to hear" he linked our arms together to continue walking

"Look at that sun" Jacob spoke

"Yes it's beautiful"

"Very much so, nothing can compare of it's beauty"

I pursed my lips and sighed

"Mr. Black" I turned to see Laurent, Jacob's personal schedule organizer "I am afraid you have duties today"

"Of course Laurent I shall be with you soon" Laurent bowed and left us alone "Come Isabella" Jacob spoke walking towards Laurent, 'come Isabella' what the hell does he think I am, a dog?

"Actually Jacob I think I'll have a look around"

"Isabella"

"Hello" o thank you god I mentally thought

"Masen"

"Black" he looked to me "Bella"

I blushed and bit my lip

"Well if you and Bella like each other so much why don't you walk together" Jacob stormed off in a huff I sighed

"Can he get anymore childish?" Edward asked me with a amused look

"Yes" I smiled

"Evening love" he said coming near me and kissing me lightly

"Evening" I looked towards the sky the sun was still out, kind of, why isn't he bursting into flames, not that I want him to.

"Twilight, the safest time of day for us" he whispered into my ear sending me chills "Did you have a nice sleep?" he smiled

"Yes I did and before you ask I didn't have a dream"

He pouted "Too bad" he kissed my hand "Come on"

Edward had taken me to a place he liked to go when he needed to think. A meadow it was full of purple flowers and roses of different color.

"So how come you can go into the sunlight sort of?"

He laughed ""That's a myth, truth be told, I can go into the sunlight, just not in front of human"

"Why"

"I'll show you some time"

I thought for a moment but then remembered something

"Your friend Eleazer"

He looked at me "You're wondering if he's a vampire also"

"Yes, is he"

"No Eleazer was dying and I saved him, seeing as I have learnt medical things, but I wouldn't turn anyone who had a chance to live"

We were lying on the soft green grass talking about our lives

"Everything I said to you Bella was the truth"

"So about your family about you being a … you know virgin"

He smiled "Yes that's true, I only lead them on as if I'm actually going to do that, so I can feed"

I bit my lip "How many people have you killed?"

He looked at me with sad eyes "A lot of people Bella"

I nodded and pursed my lips he sat up on his elbow to look at me "Are you regretting your decision to be with me?"

"No" I said instantly "It's just is there any other way for you to feed and let it not be on humans"

he sighed "I have heard of a vampire who lives of the blood of animals" he looked at m2 "But I wouldn't be able to be with you" I frowned "Bella, your blood is sweet to me as it is imagine if I stopped my human cravings and sucked you dry"

I flinched

"I'm sorry" he said bowing his head and returning to lie down on his back. I leaned my head on his chest he wrapped his arms around me "Why don't you turn me?"

I heard him sigh "Bella, the change is brutal, for three days you feel pain like no other, you would beg me to kill you to make the pain go away" I closed my eyes tight and held him closer

"I would never regret anything if it meant being with you Edward" I whispered so low even I barley heard it but Edward did

"You don't know what you're asking"

"Yes I do" I looked him full in the eyes "I want you to turn me, to be like you, obviously not at this very moment but in time" I stroked his cheek he closed his eyes

"I don't deserve you" he told me "And so the lion fell in love with the lion"

I awoke in my bed still wearing my clothes on my stomach shown an envelope I lit the candle so I could see more to light the darkness.

The snow, so peaceful and serene,
caressed by the soft moonlight,
gave magical feelings to the night.

The soft blue glow,
the lovers' words that then did flow,
their lips closer and closer
until, locked in the throes
of a passionate embrace,
he decided to express his feelings,
to keep her safe.

He whispered softly,
his words like music to her ears,
"I Love You,"
and her response the same,
heard like the gentle breeze,
"And I, love you, forever."

That was the night they promised
to be together through everything,
each to care for the other when old and gray.
A lovers' pact
the most likely to last.

I smiled brightly he loved me and I loved him. I blew out the candle and fell back into peaceful slumber

I was standing in the middle of the forest; Edward was crouched down in front of me. He teeth bared and ready for something which was approaching in front of us.

I saw standing there a wolf of some sort, but it was much bigger than a wolf more like a man.

Edward growled loudly

"Run Bella" Edward told me

"No" I whispered

"Bella please run" Edward pounced on the creature when the creature ran towards us

My legs couldn't move I just saw them both fight. I saw the monster which was attacking Edward look at me for a second. Those eyes looked familiar deep black eyes looked directly into mine his mouth moved and whispered

"Bella" the voices name I recognized

I looked to Edward he was torn apart on the floor his blood creasing into the mud the blood seemed to make it's way to my feet. Before I could think the creature pounced towards me.

"EDWARD"

"Bella what's wrong?" Edward was there by my side I hugged him close crying into his shoulder. He was stoking my hair and my back to try and soothe me.

"Shh everything's fine Bella, I'm here" he kissed my forehead

"Don't leave me" I whispered

"Never"

I looked to him his face full of concern I kissed his perfect lips desperately trying to forget the nightmare I just had. Edward replied to the kiss just as eagerly as myself.

We pulled away to breath but our foreheads were still touching my hands were at the back of Edward's neck while his were cradling my cheeks in his soft cold hands.

"Everything is fine Bella" he kissed me once and pulled away to look in my eyes. I nodded

"Stay with me"

He nodded I pulled myself away from him so he can lie next to me. Our hands never disconnecting while he pulled me close to him. He began to hum a lullaby to calm me. It worked because the next thing I knew I was fast asleep in my beloved's arms.
