Chapter 10 Your a what? BPOV:

Edward is a vampire. Edward is a vampire. I still could not wrap my head around it. Edward is a vampire and he said he's in love with me. Part of me was trilled and part of me was scared to death.

He said he would never hurt me. He said he was in love with me. Why why do I keep thinking about that part? If Edward was human and said he was in love with me I would be shouting it to the world.

But he's not human he's a vampire. Yea but he's still in love with you. Ug just stop it and think. He said he would leave me alone if I wonted him to. Why do I get so depressed just thinking about Edward leaving me alone?

Oh yea cause I'm hopelessly in love with him too. So what do I do? So what are my options? Tell him to leave me alone and finish my eighteen months here then move away to some collage? Intolerable.

Keep going like we have been and hope he is telling the truth about not wanting to hurt me? If he wonted to hurt me wouldn't he have already done it while he was alone with me today?

Somewhere in the back of my head I already knew it's to late to turn back. I have already gave him my heart. It's up to him now to take care of it. Only I could fall for the worlds most beautiful boy that also happens to be a vampire.

I start cooking Charlie's super and decide to text Alice. 'Alice can you come over for a little while to talk?'

Ten minutes later the door bell rings. "Hi Alice" she smiled.

"Now Bella I'm still the same person I was this morning you know." and she gave me a small hug. "I know that Alice I wonted you to meet Charlie." Alice's eye's unfocused

Then she squiled "That's a great ideal Bella." I just stared at her. " Oh that's right Edward didn't give you all the details, you see some of us have special abilities when we are changed into what we are." My curiosity was peaked. "Jasper has the ability to feel and alter people's emotions, I can see the future and Edward can read people's thought's."

I turned pale, oh no Edward knows everything I think. "Edward can read everyone's thoughts except yours Bella."

Oh "Really? Why?" I asked her. "Well Edward says you are a very powerful shield Bella, if you was a vampire you could even protect other minds." I froze.

Alice laughed "Don't worry Bella we are not going to whisk you away and change you." I had not even considered becoming a vampire yet it's to much to deal with all at once.

"Alice how did this happen to you?" I asked "I don't know Bella, I can not remember my human life at all. I don't even know who changed me when I awoke I was all alone." she looked sad for a moment. "I'm sorry Alice."

"Oh don't be I'm very happy with my life, my jasper and my family. Charlie will be home in seven minutes."

I finished diner while talking with Alice. Charlie just loved Alice right of the bat I think anyone would love Alice if she let you. "Oh Charlie you just have to let Bella spend the night at my house this weekend."

Charlie was wrapped around her little finger I think he would have done anything she asked. "Well I have to go Bella, Charlie Esme expects me home for diner." She grinned at me.

The next day I parked in the school parking lot beside Edwards Volvo. I could see the worry written on his face before I smiled at him. He smiled back and walked over to me offering his hand which I took without hesitation.

He walked me to class and started playing with my hair again after we took our seat's. In that moment I knew I could never give him up it was an impossibility.

We talked a lot that day every chance we got I had one burning question on my mind. "Edward you didn't become my pen-pal by accident did you?" I watched him compose his answer. "No it wasn't by accident Bella." I waited "So why did you start writing to a ten year old girl Edward?"

"Its a long story Bella but I promise you I will tell you everything soon." "OK I can live with that but I'll tell you right now Edward no more secrets between us and I don't like being lied to."

"I promise I will never lie to you, right now I'm writing a journal for you that explains everything and will give it to you as soon as it's finished" "That sounds good I can't wait."

The rest of the week went by in the same fashion, I was really nervous about meeting Edwards parents Friday. I was leaving right after school and spending Friday night at the Cullens. I followed Edward's car to his home.

The Cullen's home was beautiful and huge three stories with a basement and a huge garage. I could even hear a river nearby.

Hello Dr. Cullen I said as I walked in the front door. "Call me Carlisle, Bella this is my wife Esme." "Hello Esme you have a beautiful home here."

Esme was a beautiful woman, snow white in the flesh. "Hello Bella it is so good to meet you again" she said as she hugged me. "Come in to the family room and meet our kids Bella."

Esme had such a welcoming smile it seemed almost like I was some how in a fairytale.

"Hello Bella I'm Rosalie and this is Emmett." Hi I shyly said. It was truly intimidating just being in the same room as Rosalie

Emmett came over to me and gave me a huge bear-hug. Cant breathe Emmett He broke out into booming laughter as he sit me down.

"Hey Bella do you like video games? bet I can beat ya in Mario kart." sure Emmett your on. We took turns for the next couple of hours playing each other in Mario kart and laughing. It was honestly the most fun I've had in a long time.

I had such a strange feeling I belonged here, It felt like I was home. They had a pizza delivered. Sitting here eating pizza with Alice, Emmett and Rose I couldn't help but wonder where Jasper and Edward went off to. "Come on Bella I wont to get even on Mario kart."

We walked back into the living room just as Edward, Jasper and Carlisle come in the front door. Emmett , Jasper, Edward and me all grab a controller. With Edward sitting beside me on the couch I could barely concentrate on the game.

Edward showed me to the guest bedroom "Your family is a lot of fun Edward." He smiled "I'm glad you like them Bella. Would you allow me to take you to diner tomorrow night?"

My heart stooped then picked up in double time, he was actually asking me out? "I would like that." I studerd out "Pick you up at seven?" "sounds good." I said. I had never been out on a date before I was nervous. "Goodnight and sweet dreams Bella." My breath ca-ult when he leaned in and kissed me on the cheek.

I went home Saturday morning to tell Charlie about my date with Edward. "Dad I'm going out to diner with Edward Cullen tonight" I couldn't read his expersion "He's a little old for you ain't he?" I almost laughed thinking of Edwards real age. "No dad hes the youngest he's In my grade." I told him.

"Well I know you'll going to wont to date, do you know about the bird and the bees?" Oh my god "Dad its just diner and yes mom had the sex talk with me already."

If I could be a redder shade of red I would be on fire right now. "Well alright I trust Dr. Carlisle has raised those kids well but if he gets out of line call me at once, make sure you have your cellphone, and also I wont to Meet him first." OK but be nice please dad he's important.

I spent the day cleaning up the house and doing the laundry until it was time to get ready for Edward. At seven on the dot the door bell rang I ran to open it almost tripping on the way.

"Hello Edward I'm sorry but my dad wont's to meet you before we leave." He didn't look nervous at all "Hello Bella that's fine I would like to meet him." Charlie was cleaning his shotgun at the kitchen table. "Dad this is Edward Cullen". "Hello Edward I know your father, he's a good man".

"Hello Chief Swan I'm pleased to meet you and yes Carlisle is an inspiration to all of us. I'll have Bella home by ten sir we are just going to port angeles to the restaurant on the boardwalk." "Alright It was good to meet you Edward, take care of my girl". With that I grab Edward's hand leading him out the door before Charlie starts drilling him more.

"Sorry about that" I said as we got into the car. "It's no problem and might I say you look lovely tonight Bella." I blushed "Thanks your not so bad yourself."

"Bella what kinda music do you like?" "All types really from classic to rock not much country really and you?"

"Petty much the same, music is really my passion, I love playing the piano and writing compositions." wow "Oh so that beautiful piano at your house must be yours?" I asked "Yes I'll play for you some time."

"I would love that, wow we're already here?" How fast was he driving? "Yes I hope you like sea food I guess I should have asked first?" "Honestly I've always wonted to try lobster there is no real seafood restaurants in Arizona."

Table for two please non smoking. "Right this way, your server will be with you shortly." moments later "Hello my name is Sarah and I'll be serving you tonight."

"What can I get you to drink?" Bella Edward asked "I'll have a sweat tea" "I'll have the same." "I'll be right back with that". "So Bella how are you liking Forks so far?"

"Well you know I was born here and lived here until I was Eight so it's not really a new thing, I loved Arizona the sun the heat, here it's always so wet an rainy." The waitress dropped off our drinks.

"Are you ready to order?" Bella Edward asked again "I'll have the lobster special" "Nothing for me" Edward told her.

"What would happen if you was to eat human food Edward?"

Edward grimaced "I can't digest human food it would have to come back up Bella."

We spent the next hour eating and talking about each other likes an dislikes. "How was the lobster Bella?"

"It was great the butter dip made it better I think."

"Bella would you like to take a short walk around the boardwalk? It's really nice this time of night with the moon shining over the water?" He smiled "I would love to walk with you Edward." and I blushed.

We walked around the boardwalk for about an hour hand in hand without really saying much just enjoying each others company. After a while we drove back home.

I hoped he would kiss me at the door but he just kissed me on the cheek again, even so my heart felt like it would leap out of my chest. I made it threw goodnight to Charlie before heading to my bed. This was the best night of my life.

We seemed so right together like two halves of a whole. Walking down the Boardwalk holding hands with Edward made me feel more alive than I ever had before.

That night while I was dreaming of Edward I woke up with a quick start and seen something out of the comer of my eye.

I knew it was Edward I can smell him, he's been in my room. "I walked over to the open window "Edward I know your here please come back." I whispered "Bella I." I looked up and there he was siting in the tree outside my window. "Edward come in." I told him.

He looked at me puzzled for a moment before jumping into my room. "What are you doing out there Edward?" He looked guilty. "Bella I'm sorry I just hate being away from you." What did he think I would tell him to leave?

I got back into my bed without saying a word and held the blanket over inviting him to lay with me. "I'll lay on top of the covers Bella so you wont get cold, at least until I get you an electric blanket." I smiled "Better hurry up with that I told him"

He put his arm's around me and I snuggled into him laying my head on his chest. After that night Edward was in my bed almost every night.
