A/N: Okay peoples, guess what? Heehee, I've been kicking myself all week for forgetting about this! So I was thinking suicidal thoughts about this story 'cause I couldn't think up any amazing whatcha-me-call-its, when it hit me! I realised that- Oh, wait... I'd better not tell you. Oops! If I tell you, it'll ruin the story. Silly meeeeee! See if you can figure out my knew – I mean new idea! You may not be able to figure it out till next chappieeeeee!
(Sorry, I just drank, like, two or three coffees in the past hour. I know! I'm a silly-billy! But I don't care;P I looooooooooooooooooove coffeeeeeeeeeeee!)
Ahem...Back to the matter at hand...
I seriously hope you guys enjoy this chapter. It's taken me FOREVER to get it posted and I'm sorry about that. It seems, the longer I take to post chapters, the more story alerts and stuff I get!
Anyways, I'd really apreciate it if you guys could leave a little pick-me-up in the form of a review because honestly, I'm getting all these alerts and what-nots, and I have no idea what's good about the story etc, etc and as much as I love having so many people willing to wait around for ages to receive chapters, a review every now and again would be great too.
Enough word vomit from me! (Seriously, I just read that last sentence in my head and I was running out of breath...mentally!)
Thanks for reading and hope you enjoy it enough to review.
Chapter 7
B.P.O.V.
Was he serious? Did I really have to spell it out for him? Honestly! And I thought he was supposed to be so smart!
"Well, there's the fact that I'm such a plain Jane. I'm clumsy, weak and all together too needy," I ticked each reason off on my fingers, "All my proplems seem to amplify and reflect back on to you and your family so you're always in danger of some kind or other. I'm a human and my presense makes your vampire side all the more dangerous." I paused for almost too long before adding, "And you don't want me," in a small voice. My head bowed and I played with my fingers in embarrassment.
Edward didn't speak for so long, I was starting to get worried. Finally he whispered, "You don't really believe all that, do you? I mean, you're just kidding, right?" He sounded strangled and I glanced up at him with worry.
"Are you alright?" I inquired, concern lacing my words. I twisted until I was released from his arms and my feet met the floor. I moved so I was standing directly in front of him.
"I will be when you realise that you are beautiful and interesting and all too enticing."
I blinked in utter shock, "But I'm not."
He just stared at me, mouth gaping in astonishment. He seemed truly bewildered.
"I've answered your question. Now would you mind doing the same? Why are you here?"
He recovered enough to babble out, "I'm here for you. If you'll take me that is."
Anger flashed through me at his cryptic remark.
"What the hell are you talking about?" I spat with a strange hissing quality tinging the edge. Once again, Edward seemed taken aback at my response and wasn't the first to answer my question.
"Isn't it obvious Bella," I different voice spoke from the window. I froze, trying to block out this new smudge of insanity, "He's still head over heels in love with you."
I managed to break free from my self-imposed stillness to stumbled backwards and sit heavily on my bed.
"Bella?" Edward asked gently as though I would break. I ran my hand through my hair and let out a shaky breath. Shaking my head furiously, I closed my eyes, trying to reign in my overactive imagination.
"No, no, no," I mumbled.
I know, I know! It's super-duper short but never fear! I'll have the next chapter up in about a minute and a half. I wanted to give all you lovely readers a longer chapter this time but I didn't really want to change the P.O.V. halfway through 'cause it wouldn't have worked what with the overlap so I split it into two chapters.
Hope you enjoy both enstallments!
Read and review. (Emphasis on review) Ta!
