The Game Plan…..
This is weird, I thought. I had my family all around me. My vampire family. Emmet, Esme, Rosalie, Jasper, Carlisle, Alice, and Edward were all huddled around me in their living room. We had been discussing the plans for a long time. First we would go to Alaska where Edward and I would "go to collage" with the Cullen's. Then, we would find a little cabin in the middle of nowhere so I could be changed with out being disturbed. Finally, I would live a happily ever after with the Cullen's and most of all, Edward… For ever.
"Well, I'm game." Emmet said so seriously that I almost didn't think it came from him.
"Same." Alice sang in the most chipper voice ever.
"I'm in, too." Jasper said quietly.
Rosalie sat there and stared out the huge glass window. I already knew her opinion, no. She sighed and said, "I would never wish this life upon anyone. If I'd had the choice like you do, I would have said no. So, I'm sorry, but my vote is no." I understood.
Carlisle looked at Esme, and she nodded her head. "We are up for anything you kids are."
Edward just stood there shaking his head. I knew he was opposed to this whole thing. He wanted me to have a guaranteed spot in Heaven. He wanted me to live the most of the human life. I, on the other hand, didn't care the least bit about that. I wanted to be with him for ever, no matter what. Plus God was merciful, and I bet he would let us in anyways… I hope…
"OK," I said happily, "so when does this happen…?"
"We leave in two days for Alaska," Carlisle said.
"Wow," I sighed, "that's so soon."
"Yes, I know. But we must leave soon; we don't want the Volturi to step in."
Edward winced. As much as he didn't want to do this to me, he'd rather do it then have the Volturi.
"Bella, can I speak to you for a moment, love." Edward sighed heavily.
"Sure, hun." I replied some what confused.
We stepped outside onto the porch. He took my hand and started to lead me towards the woods.
"Bella," He whispered softly in my ear. His voice practically making me drool. But I pulled my self together.
"Yes," I whispered just as soft. I looked into his golden eyes, they were full of sadness and almost hate. Hate? Hate for what? Oh my gosh… Me? For what I was making him do? This was hurting him so much, but this is how it's supposed to be. I can't be with him if he is immortal and I will-it was hard to even think-die. I submerged from my thoughts as Edwards silky voice intruded them.
"Bella, love, please don't make me do this." His voice getting even softer. A surge of sadness and resentfulness overwhelmed me. Why was I making him do this? He obviously didn't want to. But, why was this causing him so much pain? Did he know something I didn't?
"Edward, you know I can't do that. All I want is this, and you. But, in order for me to get this, I need to be a vampire."
"Bella!" he was starting to shout, "You are making no sense. I don't see why you want to be eternally damned on this earth! You already have me. So mark that one off your list. But heaven… Oh heaven." His voice came back to his normal tone, "I want the best for you, love."
"Edward, what's best for me is being with you." I said lovingly.
"Sometimes I wonder why… I don't think that the best thing for you is to be hanging out with vampires." He started to whisper again, "Bella, I'm a monster. I could kill you so easily. Don't you see? I'm a monster."
"Edward," I said sternly, "I don't want to hear those words from you ever again. You are not a monster."
"Yes I am, love. To me you are a toothpick. If I bend you too much, you will break."
"Edward, don't do this to your self. You are not a monster, I don't care how strong you are or how breakable I am, and I will become one of you. Just accept it."
"I will not accept it." He said coldly. His eyes becoming fierce and black.
"Well, you should. It's going to happen whether or not you like it."
"It will not. I will not let this happen."
"Really? Go ask Alice."
At this he huffed, picked me up and he started back up to the house.
"PUT ME DOWN EDWARD!!"
"Not until we are at home."
"If you don't put me down I will go to Italy and have the Volturi change me themselves!"
He put me down at once. I flopped onto the dirt with a thud,
"Thanks," I mumbled.
I stood up and stormed off into Alice's bedroom. I stayed there for the rest of the night. I was too angry to go anywhere else.
