Edward's POV:

"Edward! I thought I taught you better than that! You don't just go barging in like that!" Esme chastised, but I didn't have time for that. I was on a mission.

"Somebody start explaining…now!" I hissed. "Why did you change her? We left! There was no reason to drag her into this!"

Jasper, Alice, Emmett, Rosalie, Esme, Carlisle, Carman, Eleazer, Kate, Irin, Tanya, and…Bella all stared at me, not offering any information.

I growled a low rumbling sound deep in my chest that reverberated off the walls, threateningly. Carlisle opened his mouth to speak, "You will know when it is the right time."

"Now is the right time!" I fumed.

Bella stepped forward. "No it isn't," she said calmly, though I could tell she was shaken by my anger. I felt bad for that. I didn't want her to be afraid of me. "You will know after you've calmed down."

My family and the Denali coven then dissipated, going to their rooms and unpacking. I ran up to my room and went over to my CD collection. After much indecision I finally put in my Linkin Park CD. I laid down on my bed letting the blaring music and screeching lyrics wash over me, clearing my mind of my thoughts and everyone else's. I hadn't realized how long I was just laying there until the CD was over.

The silence that accompanied the ending of Linkn Park gave my mind free access to wonder. And all my thoughts were focused on Bella and the mystery see presented. Why can't I read her mind, and why the hell was she changed?! But what really was gripping my mind was how drop dead gorgeous she was and how I've never had this warm, bubbly feeling inside of me before. I think I'm…no…that can't be it…could it? I can't be falling in love with her. It's impossible. I'm a monster…and she's…she's perfect, an angel. And even as I told myself that that wasn't what was happening, in my dead heart I knew that I had already fallen.

I was pulled from my trance by a soft knock on my door.

"Come in" I called quietly.

Esme walked in and sat down beside me. "What?" I asked harsher than I intended.

"Edward," she started thoughtfully, "I know you're troubled about this whole situation, but you have to know, we all believe we made the right decision."

"I know you do, but that doesn't mean I agree with you. I mean, I don't even know what the other choices were." I was exasperated.

"You're just going to have to take our word for it for a little while." She continued.

"Why won't you just explain everything to me?!" I yelled at her suddenly.

"I've already told you why." Esme tried to calm me back down.

"Well that's not good enough!" I fumed enraged.

"Edward!" I heard someone yell. I turned around to see who it was and was surprised to see Bella standing in my doorway. "Edward Cullen you do not speak to your mother that way!" she reprimanded.

I immediately felt bad and turned to Esme. "I'm sorry Esme." I spoke softly.

"It's quite alright, dear." She said gathering me into a motherly hug. "I'm going to let you two talk." She spoke leaving the room.

I sat down on my coach feeling a bit awkward. I didn't know what to say. Bella sat down next to me and spoke, breaking the silence. "You have a bit of a problem with your anger, don't you?" she laughed.

She had a beautiful laugh, enchanting. I was so busy committing it to memory it took me a second to answer her. "I guess I do." I laughed with her.

"What is your full name." she asked out of nowhere.

"Edward Anthony Masen Cullen. You?"

"Isabella Marie Swan." She smiled.

"Favorite color?"

"hmmm…probably brown." She replied after a moment of thought.

"Brown?" I asked skeptically.

"Yes, brown is warm." She defended. "What's your favorite color?"

"I don't really have one. Movie?"

"Romeo and Juliet…and before you ask…my favorite book is Pride and Prejudice." I had to laugh. She was right. That was going to be my next question. "And yours is…"

"My favorite movie is probably anything involving vampires, I find those rather humorous, and my favorite book has got to be Dracula." I responded.

"You just got a thing for vampires don't you?" she chuckled. I couldn't help but think that I only have a thing for one particular vampire. And that thought brought me back to what had been occupying my mind for the past couple of hours.

I tried to bring the subject up casually. "So, is anyone going to tell me the story?"

She instantly sobered up, our playful moods lost, and I instantly missed them. "I don't know. I don't know if you can handle it yet." She muttered.

"I can handle it." I persisted trying to keep my temper in check.

"Fine, but if it upsets you remember that you asked." She bargained.

"Just tell me all already." I said rather sharply.

"Alice asked me if I would become a vampire…and I said yes." She tried to brush it off as no big deal.

"How could you have done that? You actually agreed to be changed!" I yelled. Why would she want to be changed? This life affords her nothing.

"I…I...I can't tell you why…yet." She mumbled.

"And why not. Didn't you just say you would tell me?!" Why won't she tell me!

"I'm scared." She answered truthfully.

"Of what?!" I howled.

"Of your reaction, of what you'll say, that you'll never speak to me again." She whispered. I would never quite speak to her.

"Just tell me! There's nothing to be scared of!" I never want her to be afraid of me.

I think she was getting tired of my yelling because she started yelling too. "Fine! You really want to know?! Well this is why!" She was frustrated, I could tell, but what took me by surprise was what she did next.

She wrapped her arms around my neck and crashed her lips against mine. I was shocked at first but quickly relaxed into the kiss. She playfully bit my bottom lip seeking entrance which I happily granted. Her tongue slipped into my mouth and I reciprocated. My hands couldn't decide where they wanted to be. They were tracing the contours of her body and finally settled on her hips, bringing them closer to mine. This kiss was the best thing in the entire world. It was accompanied by the most wonderful feelings possible. She arose sensations and passion that I didn't even know I possessed. I love her, I truly do.

After a while Bella pulled back and I rested my forehead against hers.

"I agreed to be changed because I fell in love with you, completely and irrevocably. And you and the family mean more to me than everything else in the world combined." She said passionately. "I love you Edward." Her words sent my dead heart into a frenzy.

"I love you more than life its self Bella." I told her. She smiled at me before I went in to steal another kiss from those most delicious lips of hers.
