Nessie

Ch16 Epiphany

EPOV

Why on Earth would Bella want to go to my house?

"Of course. But how do you plan to get there?" I asked.

"Um, you." She admitted sheepishly.

I grinned and said "Ok, Let's go!"

I slung her on my back and jumped out the window to run at vampire speed. I remembered how this used to frighten her, but now she smiled at me and kissed my neck.

"Thank you" I whispered.

"Edward, are you sure you love me?" She asked. How could Bella think of that stupid question?

We arrived at my house then. I took her off my back and spun her so she was facing me.

"Now you listen to me Isabella." She winced; she knew I was serious when I used her full name. "I love you, and nothing can tear me apart from you now."

I felt tears well in my eyes, as he said those beautiful words.

"But I don't think I have anything to hold you here. I'm not a beauty queen or anything like that." I said, while playing with a strand of black hair that was on my shoulder.

He kissed my nose and I blushed. "You are the most beautiful thing ever. Your love can hold me here, for as long as you want." He pulled back and frowned. "What in the hell possessed you to jump off a cliff?"

I blushed even harder. When I didn't answer he said my name, "Bella."

"Um, well see I found that when I did something stupid or childish, I would hear your voice when you were angry with me." I answered looking away.

He cupped my face, forcing me to look at him. "After me making you promise not to do anything stupid, you go and do it. And for me?"

"Well I wouldn't throw myself off for fun now would I?" I joked lightening the mood. I noticed his eyes were black. At that moment I had a shock run through my body.

Edward noticed the change and panicked. "Bella?"

"Shh. I'm having an epiphany."

I had only seen two options back then. I hadn't seen a third, but what if there was? Option number three, Edward loved me. Our love was so strong it couldn't dissolve with absence or distance.

"Oh." I said.

"Bella your epiphany?" He asked curious.

I placed a hand on his beautiful face and answered, "You love me."

He cupped my face in both his hands. "With all my heart."
