Song of the Chapter: The Wolves by Ben Howard.
The days seemed to slip by, continuing in a similar fashion. I'd wake up in the morning with breakfast in bed brought up by Edward. I'd get changed and ready and do some house work, read or just sit and do nothing. Edward would always be close. Either because he didn't trust me or just liked being near me, I was leaning towards the latter. We'd have lunch and talk for a while. I'd read for a while more and watch television curled up into Edward's side. Dinner followed by a movie. The day's all blurred into one, no definition between one day and the next. At a guess I would say I'd been with Edward from around two months now but I had no idea, there were no calendars up and we never watched the news. It seemed to be some unspoken agreement that we never watch it. I think it was the fear of seeing my Dad or Jacob asking for help although I didn't know if they'd still be searching. I hoped they were.
After the film, we'd walk to my bedroom and sleep in the same bed. Edward casually spooning me. I had come to hate that part of the day, Edwards eyes full of promise as he curled around me. I was being smothered and I could feel my mind dulling with the same repetitive actions every day.
About once every two weeks Edward would leave me, locked in my room as he left for what I could only presume as supplies and I revealed in that time alone. To just be myself. To not have to feel his constant burning gaze. It was the only freedom I could feel. Times like that I would pray. I'm not religious but I would pray that Jacob and all my friends were safe and they would find me. Sometimes I just curl up into a ball and weep. That was happening more and more often when Edward left me. It was like depression was sinking it claws into my mind and squeezing out the good in my life.
I was lying on my bed crying when Edward walked in on me. I hadn't heard him and I was thinking dangerous thoughts of how to end it all. I know my life wasn't bad but I couldn't see a happy ending to everything.
His face was a look of shock before he quickly scooped me into his arm and rocked me like a child. He whispered words of comfort which made the tears fall all the more quickly as my heart ached for Jacob. When I'd finally finished, he stood up and pulled me softly with him.
"Put some warm clothes on and come with me," He said gently before leaving to give my privacy.
I did as I was asked, shoving a blue hood on over my t shirt and opting to change my jeans to thick leggings and shoved on some socks. I went downstairs to him where he looked overly warm, wrapped in a scarf and in his thickly gloved hands he had another scarf and some gloves.
I took them and looked into his green eyes with surprise and expectation. I quickly wrapped the scarf round my neck and yanked on the gloves eagerly. He passed me some boots which I tugged on with excitement. He held my hand as he unlocked the door, chuckling as I literally bounced with exhilaration.
Everything was pure white as we stepped outside, hand in hand. It was like the ground had been covered in icing, no footprints had yet broken its pure state. The trees were also covered in a snow frosting and delicate icicles hung on the front of the porch. Snow was slowly falling from the grey sky. There was no noise from birds or from a city, everything was eerily silent as me and Edward gazed at the beauty before us. I turned to him, a smile plastered on my face; I hadn't looked outside that day so the snow was an unexpected surprise for me. He gave me a lopsided grin before running down the steps and hurriedly making a snow ball before promptly throwing it at my face. I brought my hands up and turned my head so only half my head became covered in snow. I gapped at him before sprinting down to join him, quickly creating my own snowball.
I couldn't stop the grin from spreading across my face as my snowballs missed him by miles and his continued to get closer to their mark. I laughed out loud as I finally managed to hit him in the face, covering it in snow. He looked up at me and I realised that was the first time I've ever laughed in presence. My smile quickly fell and he ran to me grabbing my hand.
"Mind if we take a walk?" He asked slightly out of breath, his cheeks rosy from the cold.
"Sure and we fell into step. We walked through the forest where not much snow had fallen. After a while we came to an opening.
"This is my favourite place to be when I need to relax." He said as we stepped into the opening. The snow here was slightly less here so I could see several varieties of flowers frozen in a perfect state. It was without doubt one of the most beautiful places I'd seen. I stepped forwards, the ground crunching beneath my feet. I spun round to Edward standing still, just watching me.
I rushed to him, wrapping my arms around him and pressing my face into his chest. He took a step back and stood for a minute with his arms frozen before they enfolded me into the hug further.
"Thank you Edward," I whispered, looking up through my lashes at him.
He stared for a minute before bending down and touching his lips with mine. I was startled and before I could think I started kissing him back. Our mouth moved in synch as snow began to fall around us again. We final took a step back, breathless and smiling.
"Come on, let's get you home," He grinned as he took my hand and we began walking home.
Nothing would be the same between us again.
Hope you enjoyed it! Sorry for any mistakes again.
