DICLAIMER: I DO NOT OWN TWILIGHT~
In my dream, I was brought back to my four year-old self when I was playing with my two favorite toys- Ms Barbie and Teddy. Ms Barbie was gorgeous with her golden silk hair and a size-two figure. Her lips were strawberry pink and her eyes were big and bright. Mr Teddy was not exactly drop-dead beautiful, but he was cute in his own way. His deep-set black eyes never failed to cheer me up and he was always warm and cuddly on rainy days. I loved them both.
However, when I woke up one day, I couldn't find them in my room .I searched the entire house, until I found Jacky, my pet dog, chewing and gnawing at Mr Teddy. On the right, Ms Barbie was burning in the fire? Who had put them there? I was stuck in a dilemma of which to save. But then, either way, the one saved would still be damaged and the other would be left to perish. Not knowing what to do, I sat down and started to cry, being the young child that I was.

I awoke with a start. I was surprised to find actual tears flowing down my cheeks. In front of me was the guy named Edward, his hand half-extended, probably afraid to touch me.
"Are…are you in pain?" He asked sincerely, as if he actually cared about me. I ignored the question, but his warm golden eyes refused to leave mine, and looked on questioningly. Feeling obligated, I shook my head infinitesimally, knowing that he could see, if he was really one of them.
He let out a breath a relaxed just a little, but the strain did not leave his eyes. I let my eyes run over him, taking in him properly. His features were perfect, for the lack of a better word. His arms were muscular, not bulging, and lean. His body was well-build and like his arms, lean and flat-muscled.
His face. It knocked the breath right out of me. I couldn't help but examine it over and over, mesmerized and stunned at the same time. His honey golden eyes were framed by thick, long lashes and his nose was shaped to perfection. His lips were full and inviting. And when he pulled them back into a smile, they revealed a set of pearl-white teeth.
I remembered what Carlisle had told me that night when I first regained my conscious ness. Edward and you were together before this incident. He cares for you a lot and would never, I repeat, never hurt you intentionally. Does it mean that he has hurt me before? Give him a chance, and you'll see he's not what you think he is.
So, Edward and I were sort item. And turns out, he wasn't helping Victoria to slay me, but trying to save me. Weird, I thought it was Seth. But come to think of it, it does make sense…a little. Three wouldn't vampires won't be needed to kill a human girl like me; just one would be much more than enough.
I needed to know him better. But I couldn't ask him directly like that, could I? It would be way too embarrassing for me, and I guess to painful for him to live through. Who could I consult on this matter? Someone who I could trust would tell me every inch of the truth I needed to know?
Alice?
I needed to speak to Alice. But I couldn't actually go to her, with me all wrapped up in casts now. I had to attempt to talk, and ask er, Edward, to get her.
"Edward?"
"Yes?" Oh my gosh, could this person really, actually be my boyfriend?
"Could…could you get Alice please?"
"Sure. May I?" He gestured to a loose strand of hair hanging in front of my face.
I nodded stiffly. He reached out and swept it behind my ear and smiled. The movement felt so natural, as if he'd done it many times before, but somehow, it also felt strange, alien. He turned and strode out of the room in a gracefulness that even swans could not compare.
"Hey, Bella!" Alice chirped.
"Hi!" I replied. I felt so totally at ease with Alice. She was my best friend in the whole world, the only one who I could trust completely.
"So, what do want to talk about? Make up? Clothes? Oh, did you hear that Cameron Di-"
"Alice," I sighed. "You know what I want to talk to you about. Some psychic you are."
"Yes, you and Edward are an 'item'. You guys love each other A LOT, and you always feel very lonely and lost when he goes on hunting trips. That's the only time when he actually leaves you. And did you know, he dosen't go as far north as Jasper and Emmett to catch his favorite mountain lions because of you? He's afraid that if he goes too far, it'd actually take him that much longer to return to you. He doesn't want you to be afraid, lonely, whatever. He doesn't want you to be anything but happy. And if you told him to leave now, he'd do that, although it'd hurt him much more than you know." Alice stared at me earnestly. "Are you sure you can't remember anything at all?"
"Sorry," I really was. I felt cheated by my own mind.
Alice lifted herself off the bed. "Well then, time for the photos!"
She came back, carrying a large, oversized photo album in her tiny arms. "Here you go." I looked at it and right smack on the front cover was Edward and I. His arms were around me, and I was smiling happily. Suddenly, I noticed the ring on the fourth finger of my left hand.
I pointed to it and asked Alice, "What's that?
"Oh, its your engagement ring."
Hey guys, so i decided to write from Bella's POV. and take note of Bella's dream at the start, it actually explains why she cannot remeber Edward. Anyway, that's just a clue. It does not really make much sense now though. Later on in the story, there is gonna come an explanation as to why she cannot rememeber Edward. so, i'm still targeting 5-7 reviews. not too ambitious^^
