A/N: Sorry this chapter isn't as long as the last one, I haven't had much time on my hands lately and my i-pod suddenly erased all two thousand songs I had on it (and I didn't have another list anywhere, so I can't even remember all the songs that I'm missing...) SO I'm so fucking pissed right now (I usually don't swear in my writing but, when I'm mad it tends to leak out...)

Anyways hope you like the chapter, thanks for reading, please review!

BPOV-- I had been on the plane for a few hours now, I couldn't focus on the movie they were showing, but my eyes stayed glued to the screen, I couldn't pull me eyes away. We were in first class like Alice always booked for us. Emmett and Rose sat off by themselves Carlisle and Esme did much the same. Alice and Jasper sat with me though, Alice had a center seat, with me at the window. She held both our hands, Jasper's out of pure habit and enjoyment, and mine for comfort. I don't think I needed comfort though, I was overjoyed. I figured Jasper must know how I felt but, he still sat there, I suppose their presence didn't seem forced... Maybe, they just wanted to sit with me.

My friendship with Emmett and Alice remained the same into my vampire life, Rosalie and Jasper were a different story. Although just recently Rosalie has warmed up to me, it seems Jasper's and I friendship improved from the moment I woke up from my transformation. Without the temptation of human blood, it was easier for him to be around me. In the sense that my mere presence no longer caused a burning sensation in his throat, that is. There were other ways it was harder for him though. Edward once told me, that the easier I took to immortality, the harder it was for Jasper. I could drink blood for nutrition but, why bother when I could perfectly well eat human food?

I still thought about what Edward said about Jasper being tired of being the weakest link. That fact almost made me want to slip up.

When I became a vampire, Jasper had picked up the habit of following me around. Apparently, I was going to get so hungry, and not find a granola bar in time. I am proud to say my record is just as clear as Rosalie's. I have never tasted human blood --other than in my constant accidents during my time as a human-- but, I never really wanted to. The smell changed, but my appetite at the site of it did not. The biggest change was stronger control over my stomach, which was great because they often came home smelling of it. If I could smell this good while I was human, their would be not doubt I would have vomited the second I walked through the door. One of the many benefits of becoming a vampire...

I tore my eyes from the screen when Alice spoke. "I'll be expecting a play by play of that movie when we get off the plane."

I laughed. "Why?"

"Because you owe me." She stated simply.

"Oh, yeah? For what?"

"You've been starring at that screen for far to long! You will give me a play by play of the movie!"

Jasper sighed sarcastically. I expected him to talk to Alice, but he instead spoke to me in his fake exasperated tone. "Well, it's the least you can do..."

I scoffed. "Common! Way to take sides Jazz!" I stuck my tongue out at the two of them.

Alice laughed. "You now owe, both Jasper, and me."

I spoke with sarcasm. "Whats the ingenious reason now?"

"We have managed to distact you till the ending of the flight."

Jasper mumbled. "Well, we owe that movie some of that credit... But hey, we both know you weren't paying a lick of attention to it." He finished in a laugh.

"Bella your off the hook, you don't have to describe the movie, I guess." She furrowed her brow, though a smile sneaked into her features in a moment. "You'll just have to make it up at another time I guess..." Alice smiled devilishly.

I looked over at Jasper, panic was surely written through my eyes. "Alice, calm. Your scaring her."

Alice and Jasper snickered.

"Hey, I thought going through that transformation gave me a free pass from laughs, at my expense!"

Emmett ducked his head in. "Yeah, thats true you did get a free pass." His face looked serious, no joke seemed to be lying near by.

"Okay... Why doesn't it count now?" I questioned, cautiously despite his serious composure. I knew Emmett, he had something I was bound to walk into.

"Well, you didn't get a pass..." He looked down, his face seemingly serious, though I knew he was looking down to hide a smile. He looked back up with a sheepish grin. "The thing is you only got one

Their laughs subsided just in time for the pilot to come on over the speaker: "We will be landing in within five minutes. I ask that everyone fasten their seat belts."

As the pilot ended his statement, two flight attendants walked up the halls, to enure we had fastened out seatbelts. We all knew we would never need them for protection, but for the whole charade we buckled up.

Earlier, Alice had told me that Edward was very busy, having meeting with the Volturi and such. She had given me the impression that he wouldn't be at the airport waiting for me when I got there, I couldn't help feeling a twinge disappointed at this insight, but I also couldn't help being overjoyed when the plane touched ground. I was in a trance like state as I grabbed my carry on and made my way behind Alice off the plane. I stayed in this state as I went through baggage claim. This trance wasn't good nor bad, the only thing I could say about it that would help you to understand, was that is was hope. I had hope building the further I went through the airport, I wouldn't allow myself to feel too happy or disappointed just yet. Alice had given me the impression he wouldn't be here, but she didn't outright say it. Maybe, just maybe when I am making my way threw the crowd, I'll see him, drop my bags and just run into his arms. Maybe... just maybe.

I could see this was unlikely, but I so... wanted it to happen. Stuck between these two emotions left me in this trance, it left me not over happy not over sad, it left with me with hope, and hope alone.

I had gotten used to the hope rising so quickly, that I was thunderstruck, when the hope began to diminish. I was being irrational. I'd see him shortly anyways. All hope was deceased by the time we were walking out the doors into the storm outside. The storm distracted my thoughts for a moment, it sure was loud. I wonder if they have any meadows suited for baseball around here?

The trance disappeared with the hope. Carlisle led the way with Esme at his side, they stopped simultaneously, Emmett and Rose came to a stop behind them. Jasper opened the back door to an impossibly expensive looking car, it was amazing colour of blue. Who had they hired to drive us? This family had too much to spend. Couldn't they find a good charity? Jasper answered my thought. "We regularly donate to several charities."

"Wow, your one smart dude, Jazz." I commented.

"What on earth would make you think such a thing Bella?" Emmett jokingly scoffed. Jasper lightly punched him in the arm-- Well, lightly for us-- Emmett chuckled.

Jasper gestured for me to get in. "If I didn't know better I'd think you could read minds. Can you really figure that much out from someones emotions?" I climbed in and slid across the seat.

Jasper laughed loudly, Alice giggled at his side.

Carlisle spoke now. "Oh, of course not Bella!"

I glanced at Carlisle, and back at Jasper. I smiled. "Then how could you answer that question?"

Rosalie laughed now, she leaned down and stuck her head in. "Your driver can answer any questions you have." She laughed, again. She leaned back out and shut the door.

"What the hell? Guys, why aren't we taking the same car?" I was sure they could hear me through the glass of the window, but they pretended to be oblivious. They smiled and waved as the car started off. I stared back at them. What. The. Hell?!

I huffed then mumbled. "Jerks."

I heard a velvet chuckle from the drivers seat. Edward. Edward. Edward! I jumped into the front seat next to him. I looked through the windshield to realize he was no longer driving, he had pulled over. Now I felt his warm breath on my neck, I was sure he was going to run his lips up against my throat and collarbone, but I didn't have that kind of patience at the moment. I turned my head fast to catch his lips, unexpected. He gave me every reason to believe he missed me just as much as I had missed him.

"Anxiety gone yet?" I laughed against his lips.

"Almost..." He pressed his lips even harder to mine.

When we finally parted, I laughed.

"Something funny, love?" He laughed with me.

"Did someone have a plan?" I asked, still gleeful.

"I wanted to surprise you." He kissed me again, on the forehead this time.

I giggled. He must be confused... or maybe, he's just playing innocent! "Edward..." I stretched his name out extra long. "Thats not what I was referring too..."

His expression remained confused. "You were really fast to pull over..." I let out a nervous laugh.

He chuckled.

I smiled quite awkwardly. "Did you expect me to throw myself at you like that?"

"No, quite the opposite actually. I expected to throw myself at you..."

Edward wrapped his arm around me and started driving again. "Have you eaten recently?"

I rested my head on his shoulder. "No, actually. I was nervous..."

"Say no more! I have the solutions to all that is chaotic but, I'll solve the worlds problems later. Lets get you some grub." He pulled over again. He walked around the front of the car, opened my door and took my hand. Edward pushed a button on the key fob, and the trunk popped open. He pulled out a picnic basket and led me through a wall of trees. The rain was pouring down harder than ever now.

When we stepped through the trees I looked around at the grassy area around us. Edward led me closer to the center and laid out a blanket for us to sit on. "I know it's not the same as the meadow, definitely not as big... but,"

"It's nice to have a place thats just ours." I finished his sentence. I don't know if thats how he had planned to finish it but, it seemed to work for the both of us.

The food was delicious, I had to give it to him, like other things he could do perfectly, he had a talent for cooking. It was a shame he would never be able to taste what magic he could create. When I was done the delicious meal he had prepared I rested my head on his lap.

"How was it?" He ask cautiously. Ha! One thing Edward Cullen couldn't do, read my mind. He probably thought his food was making me sick. Lets have a little fun shall we...

I let a fake moan escape my mouth.

"Are you okay? You don't look so well, Bella..."

"I don't feel so well, either." I laughed silently to myself as I clutched my stomach and groaned in fake agony.

"Bella?"

I bring my head up, in a way that will most likely make me look dizzy.

Edward spoke in a frantic voice. "Bella? Are you alright? Whats wrong?"

Maybe, I was being too mean... Just a short while longer... "Edward? Can vampires get food poisoning?"

Edward grabbed me and started checking me all over, as if it was a physical problem, like he would find a bruise to explain it all in a moments time. "Oh, god! Bella, I'm so sorry... I just wanted to make you something nice... I'M A VAMPIRE! How could I ever believe I could cook?"

I moaned again. "Can we?"

He sighed. "What do you think it is when we throw up human food? So yes, we can."

I looked up to him. "Really? That's what I thought... you look like your about to get sick yourself..." I snickered. "I guess my acting skills have improved, have they not?"

Edward stared at me with shocked eyes, there was a short silence before he spoke. "That was really cruel."

I felt bad now. "I'm sorry, I was just joking. You've gotta know that Edward."

I got to his feet in an instant and was folding up the blanket.

"Edward?" I squeaked.

He didn't answer. He shoved the blanket in the basket and started on toward the trees.

"Edward." I followed behind him. "Okay, I'm sorry, that was just mean, please forgive me." I tried to dazzle him like had the power to dazzle me, but I had no luck he didn't even look at me. "Edward!" He turned around now. "I love you and I'm sorry. I can't imagine you getting any better of an apology than that."

He smiled. "I can't either." Edward wrapped his arm around me. "Oh, and love?"

"Yeah?"

"Your acting has improved, but your still not as good as me."
