We had been working on controlling my powers for about a week, with the help of the Denali's. Eleazar said I was improving but I still felt out of control. However I refused to give up. I didn't ever want to hurt anyone unintentionally again.
Especially Edward.
I had learned to expand my shield and expand it over others but my other power was still a mystery to me, since I couldn't really control what I was thinking. And I never knew when it was going to show itself.
Eleazar told me with time I would master it. I somewhat believed him.
However controlling my powers weren't the only thing that was nagging me.
I still haven't gotten all my memories from my human years back, even though some memories would flash in my mind at times. Though, those were just little memories. Laughing with friends. Eating cereal. Washing my hair.
What really bothered me were the visions of the little boy who kept passing through my mind. They were actually really beginning to bother me. I knew that Edward was keeping something from me, along with the rest of the family, but I didn't bother to ask them. If it were important, I knew they would tell me.
Or I hoped they would.
However if the visions kept coming, and I had another episode like in the woods, then I would demand them tell me anything I need to know.
Everything they were keeping from me.
Everyone had decided to go play another game of baseball since another thunder-storm was coming this way, I wasn't up for that just yet though, so me and Edward stayed home.
And now I was sitting next to Edward on the piano bench, while he played beautifully and flawlessly, my head on his shoulder.
I gazed as his hand moved from key to key, making a wonderful melody.
My memory of the first time Edward played my lullaby for me flashed in my mind a few hour's ago, and when I told him, the smile that lit up his face made my nun-beating heart feel as though it skipped a beat.
And ever since then we haven't moved from this spot. Not that I was complaining. Anywhere with Edward was where I wanted to be and now I was more content than I can ever remember being. Even if I didn't have all my memories.
I knew Edward was all I needed.
I smiled up at Edward as he hit the last note of the composition, "What is the name of that one?" I ask him curiously.
He smiles down at me, kissing my forehead gently.
"Moonlight, I composed it the first night after you're transition. This is the first I've ever played it though."
He laughed at my incredulous expression.
"How is that possible? You just think it and then just play it?" I ask with amazement.
"Well sometimes I have to practice it to find the perfect notes for the melody. It took me awhile to write your song, I wanted it to be as perfect as you are." My heart warms at his loving eyes.
I laugh, "Somehow I think you see something completely different to what I see."
His face is serious as I say that, "Bella, You are the most perfect being I have ever met, and ever will meet."
I smile, wanting to deny it but not wanting to ruin the moment. "I guess you haven't met you then. Because you, my love, are even more perfect."
He laughs at that and I'm glad to see his smile once more. "I beg to differ, however I know how stubborn you can be so I know there is no point in arguing on the fact."
I nod, and he smiles. Then he gets up and outsctretches his hand for me to take, which I do, and get up from my seat beside him. He kisses my hand before tucking it into his side. We then begin to walk to the balcony.
"The storm is passing, the others will be back soon." Edward sighs in disappointment.
I lean onto his shoulder, and sigh as well. "It was nice being alone, maybe someday we can go on a vacation or just way. Just the two of us. You know I can't even remember our honeymoon." I smile up at him.
He grins, before wrapping his arm around my waist, "I like that idea. I like it a lot." He kisses my lips softly, but not long after it begins to become more hungry and urgent. Our passion for each-other showing itself with our lips, my moans edge him further, and his edge me further.
And soon I can't have enough of him. His body seems to be calling out to me, my instincts yelling at me to take him, to love him, to claim him.
And I knew that he was thinking the same because once his lips left mine they urgently went to my neck, that arched at the bliss of his touch.
"I Love you Isabella Cullen, So much words cannot explain." He whisper between kisses on my lips, as he grips my waist in both of his arms.
I bring my hands to his head, running my fingers through his wild bronze main.
I bring his hungry lips to mine before pulling him back, his once golden eyes now black with want, "I love you too Edward. You're everything I want, everything that I need." I whisper before returning my lips to where they belong. On his.
We don't go any further than making out, since we both know that the family would be returning soon, and we didn't exactly want to have our first time as me being a vampire interrupted or heard.
Once we both calmed down, we went to his room, and cuddled into his bed-which he had apparently bought while I was human and listen to Debussy.
We heard the family before we actually saw them. Of course that was expected since vampires have amazing sight, hearing, strength, and speed.
"Oh Eddie! Did you score any tonight?" We heard Emmett tease from downstairs, before the sound of smacking, and then him wincing while apologizing for Rose's behalf. Edward growls in warning but grins amused with our brother and sister.
"Emmett, should I use my shield on Rose, and not have you 'score' any for a while?" I tease in my most serious voice.
I can literally hear him pale at the thought. "Please don't do that Bella, You know you're my favorite sister right."
"Hey!" Alice says in fake offense, however can hear the amusement in her voice.
I laugh along with the rest of the family, minus Edward.
" Don't get on her bad side Em, you know she can do it now Eleazar taught her how to control." Carlisle says from what sounds like his study.
"Bella!" He whines my name, and I laugh more. Sometimes it bewildered me how Emmett was older than most humans and still acted like a 5-year-old. If that.
"Fine. I promise not too, but if I hear anymore comments about me and Edward. Then don't be surprised if every-time you try to touch rose you end up being electrocuted." I warn, grinning at Edward who smirks at me.
"Naughty." He whisper's to me.
My grin widens before I laugh.
"Okay, Bella. You have my word. Just don't electric-fence my wife." He pleads.
"Deal." I chuckle.
Then I hear the sound of his play station 3 starting up, and roll my eyes. Guess he was back to being Emmett.
"Would you really do that?" Edward whispers so that I'm the only who can hear.
"If I needed too..Yes." I smirk mischievously.
He laughs before getting up and pulling me into his side. He places a sweet kiss on my lips before we both go downstairs to join our family.
Emmett was of course playing the game, it was some sort of war game. Rose was on the recliner reading one of her many magazines on cars. Alice was her lap top, more than likely online-shopping, and Jasper by her side reading one of his History books.
Me and Edward sat at the end of the couch, me on his lap.
"Where are the Denali's?" I ask them curiously.
Rose answered, not looking away from her magazine.
"They decided to go to hunting, since they hadn't hunt since being here, we just came here."
"They'll be back tomorrow." Alice says. I nod.
"Did you all have a good game?" I ask remembering that they had went to play baseball.
I heard Emmett scoff, and knew that he had apparently lost.
I smirk looking at Alice who came back from her world of shopping to answer, " We won 134 to 133."
"They cheated!" Emmett interrupted causing all the girls to laugh, and Jasper to shake his head with a smile.
"Really?" I say not really convinced.
Emmett is a sore loser, that much I knew.
"Yes. I would've got Alice out but she used her genie powers and dodged me."
He shouted as he shot some people on the screen.
I laugh, "Genie?" I question not able to keep the amusement from my voice.
"Yes, Her visions. Duh." Emmett says as though it's the most obvious thing.
"Ohhh.." I play along like I just figured out what he meant.
Edward shakes from beneath me as he laughs. Alice rolls her eyes, "Emmett, were able to use powers. Just wait until Bella decides to play again. Were gonna be invincible with her shield." She taunts.
He pauses his game to turn and glare at his little sister, "Never."
I cover my mouth to cover my laugh at the seriousness of his voice.
"Well kids that's enough of that. Bella, Edward, how was you're day?" Esme's kind voice came from the stairs as she appeared in the room taking a seat in the loveseat, seconds later Carlisle was beside her.
Edward answers, "It was great." He kisses my neck as he says it. "Bella remembered me playing her lullaby for the first time."
I smiled at the love in his voice as talked about me. It still amazes me how much he seemed to love me.
I loved him just as much, If not more.
Esmé smiles widely, along with Carlisle. "That's amazing Bella. Congratulations."They both say. I smile back gratefully.
"Soon you'll remember almost everything."Carlisle said to me but he was looking at Edward with a look I couldn't decipher, and I knew that he meant to sound hopeful but I couldn't help but hear a slight sound of something almost like panic in his voice.
"Yes. I hope." I reply almost questioningly.
There is a silence, and I can't help but again to feel out of the loop. Everyone had acted like they hadn't heard anything and wouldn't look at me.
I sighed. Slightly hurt with the continuous secrecy.
I get up from Edwards lap and he sends me a questioning gaze. I smile and shake my head.
"I'm going to go for a run." I say walking to the door. I feel a warm hand touch my arm and turn already knowing who it belongs too.
Edward is analyzing my face, trying to uncover my thoughts with my expressions.
"I'll come with you." He says.
"No. Stay here, I won't be gone long. I promise." I kiss his lips slightly before pulling away and run out the house.
I don't run for long, only about 15 minutes. But I'm already over 100 miles from the house.
The sky is darkening and I gaze up at the stars from the rocky cliffs. I knew that if it bothered me so much with them keeping something from me I should just confront them. But something inside me, knew that I wouldn't like it. That things wouldn't be the same thing.
As minutes passed I realized that I should get back, before Edward decided to come after me himself.
It only took 15 minutes to return home and I smiled at the sound of Emmett and Jasper playing the game, and Rose, Alice, and the Denali sister's talking about the latest trends. Carlisle and Eleazar talking about time from the past and Esmé and Carmen talking about design.
This was my family. I wasn't going to ruin it with questioning about my life, about their secrets.
If I remembered. I remembered.
And If I didn't. Then I didn't,
I walked into the house and into the welcoming arms of my husband.
"I missed you." Edward sighs into my neck while kissing up my jaw.
"I was only gone for an hour." I laugh.
"An hour to long." he pulls back to let me see his grin.
We go back into his piano room, and I take my place on his bench beside him as he plays another one of his compositions.
Time passes and after a few other compositions we hear a frightened gasp of Alice and the abrupt stop in Edwards playing. I grab his hands and squeeze slightly.
"What?" I ask startled with the sudden change. "Whats wrong." I hear Jasper downstairs doing the same to Alice, and the whispers of our family in a slight panic.
His pained eyes turn to me, and then down to my hand that's holding his.
"Edward." I hear the pain-filled voice of Alice.
Her voice puts me on edge. "Edward, tell me whats wrong."I plead as I notice his chest rising and falling, and gasps escaping his throat.
Something a vampire never does unless they were in pain.
"Bella." He finally whispers, but I stare in confusion at the longing in it.
"It's okay Edward, I'm here my love." I whisper to him reassuringly.
He pulls me into his lap, wrapping his arms tightly around my waist, as I'm about to disappear.
"Edward, You're scaring me. Whats the matter? What did Alice see?"
"The Wolves..."He whisper's.
His response just furthers my confusion.
Wolves?
Then suddenly I hear a rustle come from the woods, and then the sound of foot steps come onto the porch.
Who could be here at this time at night?
The Denali's? No they wouldn't be back until tomorrow Alice said. And Alice was never wrong.
There was a knock on the door, confirming that it wasn't the Denali's.
I hear the unwilling sigh of Carlisle before his footsteps going to the door.
Edwards grip on me tightens.
"Yes?" I heard Carlisle.
"I want to see her." I hear the rough, deep voice of a man, that is somewhat familiar. And for some reason I get a sense of comfort. I wonder who he is, and who he's talking about but for some reason I felt that it was me.
"Edward?" I hear Carlisle ask for permission.
Edward sighs before pulling back to look at me. I look over his face and into his eyes, noticing the hardness that had arrived.
"Come in Jacob."
Okay, hoped you guys liked the chapter. I did. Tell me how you feel about Jacob suddenly showing up, and what you thinks going to happen next. Also The compositions that Edward Played, "Moonlight." is actually a composition by the Piano composer Yiruma. Edward's 'compositions' will more than likely be from him since he is so amazing. Also if you haven't checked him out, you should. I love him. Anyways..
Peace, and Blessings.
