Hmm well I was reading my own story when I realized a few things you guys might have realized. Bella never really uses her power, and there isn't a lot of Bella/Edward stuff going on. Well I'm going to try to put more of those things in the story. By the way im really sorry I have basically stopped this. I don't want to get into it, but I go to a really intense school and have been doing literally nothing but school, eating, and sleeping. Does somebody want to help me co-write this? Like, alternating writing chapters? I'm totally open to this-send me a PM.
Chapter Ten: Out Of Sight, Out Of Mind?
"Edward, I keep thinking about Brendon, Lilah, and Audrey…ever since we brought them food, I've been thinking about how lucky we are to not have to worry about those kind of things. And wondering if they are ok…" I glanced at Edward and away from the wide screen TV, which was showing Phantom Of The Opera, one of my favourite movies. We had given up on the list of 10 things after sitting around for an hour coming up blank. (A/N: Based on a true story. I was sitting in my room forever trying to thing of lists for everybody, and ended up watching this movie-again. GIVE ME IDEAS….)
"I have actually been thinking about them too. So has Alice, but no surprise there-she adored them all. We were thinking of going to visit them again, if we could find them. I was going to ask you about it sometime today…"
"Could we really? I just need to put my mind to rest. I need to know that they are doing okay. We could go down to the store and get them something?"
"Hey you guys," Alice interrupted from the floor, "I couldn't help but hear..we are going to go visit them again?!"
We weren't totally sure of where we had found them before, but decided to walk around until we found them. We did have all the time in the world. But first, we stopped at the store to get them something. Summer was almost over-time to decide whether to go to school or not-and it was getting colder. We got them a few giant fuzzy blankets, some bottles of water, some bread, and some random junk food items. Hey, everybody wants junk food. We also got them some miscellaneous vitamins, whichever ones looked like they might actually be helpful.
Walking down the street with Edward, hand in hand, I realized how lucky I was. Not only was I with the man I love, but I get to be with him forever. I was surrounded by amazing people, and had literally nothing to worry about at all. Most people get not a fraction of this heaven that I was taking for granted.
I examined my surroundings. Looking up at Edward, he smiled at me and pecked me on the cheek. This didn't give me the usual jolt of affection I usually felt. Instead, it made me feel a little sad.
Up ahead, Alice and Emmett were bickering over some trivial matter, chasing each other around and poking at the other, so easily amused. Jasper was a not far from them, laughing at how childish they can be.
I frowned slightly when I realized how lucky we were. Most people don't get to be this happy, this carefree. Some people never get a chance to live. Stress after stress, until they get the cruel reward of eternal peace that is death.
I made myself a promise to help people when I could. How could I take my life for granted when I could so easily be helping others? I had infinite time to, not to mention infinite money.
And I would start with Lilah, Brendon, and Audrey. There are so many ways we could help them. I smiled as a plan hatched in my mind.
Edward looked down at me again, his eyes full of question. I wonder if he would approve of this plan?
Alice shouted at us that they had found them, and I came back to attention, my smile turning into a grin as I realized what this could become.
Ok so I was listening to 505 by the Arctic Monkeys while I wrote this, if you have heard this song, you can understand why it got all philosophical there. Don't worry, this isn't turning into a Twilight/Harry Potter fic. I just totally spazzed out when writing that. So I'm totally serious about this co-writing thing, just PM me if your interested!!
