Yay for staying up until midnight-thirty writing a chapter!! Yay I tell you!!

Ok, so I tried to make this chapter longer. And I should be getting to the main plot twist soon, so hopefully those chapters will be long as well. Sorry for all the fillers and sorry for all the fillers I will have to write.

Please review! You know I love it when you do!
(That was supposed to rhyme)

Ashleigh's POV

Somewhere in between relating the song to my life, I realised that I was in love with Daniel.

And so I opened my eyes to see…

My Miracle.

The very second I saw him, before I could even think, I had launched myself out of my chair and flung myself at him, hugging him tightly.

His arms wrapped around me quickly, pulling me closer to him. I buried my face into his neck and continued hugging him.
I had no idea why I did it, other than the fact that I had realised I was in love with him, but I was too busy to be embarrassed. All I knew is that I was hugging Daniel, my miracle, my reason to continue existing, my reason to love again.

I pulled back slightly to look at his face. His arms never loosened their grip, and neither did mine.

I had only stared into his beautiful topaz eyes for a fraction of a second before my mouth was on his and I was kissing him.

It was wonderful. His scent was breathtaking, his lips were soft and smooth yet hard and passionate, his hair felt so good intertwined in my fingers, everything about him was perfect.

Suddenly, I realised what I was doing and pulled my face away from his. I swear I could feel a blush on my cheeks, though that was impossible.

"Sorry." My voice cracked nervously. "I-I don't know why I did tha-" He shut me up my placing his lips on mine and pulling me closer to him.

"I'm glad you did," he murmured softly around my lips. I entwined my fingers into his hair once again and sighed. Life was amazing right now. Everything was perfect, and nothing had a reason to not be perfect. Misery didn't exist. I loved life; I loved Daniel.

"I love you," I sighed before I could stop myself.

Daniel froze, his arms locked around me with enough force to give me bruises had I been human.

"I love you too." There was so much emotion in his voice, but I didn't have time to determine what emotions they were before his lips were on mine again, kissing me more passionately than before.

I thought that I was going to fall over. Whether it was from falling in love head over heels, or from the force and emotion of the kiss, I wasn't sure. Either way, I was surprised that I hadn't keeled over. I was still standing. Standing with Daniel, kissing him.

"Flight 38-D to England is now boarding. Flight 38-D to England." A loud, nasaly voice from the speakers interrupted my bliss.

"Is that your flight?" Daniel asked me. We were now staring into each others' eyes, arms still locked around each other.

"I'm not going," I answered with a dazed smile. Truth was, I barely knew what was going on. All I wanted to do was spend the rest of my life kissing Daniel.
Well, it didn't matter what we were doing, as long as I was with him.

"You mean to tell me that I drove all the way here, bought a ticket, and found you, just to learn that you're not going?" He smiled.

"Y-You bought a ticket?" I was dumbfounded.

"Well of course. I wasn't going to let you fly to England without me." His tone and his smirk were teasing, but his eyes blazed with emotion and I could see the truth and determination behind his words.

"B-But… You were going to follow me? To England? I… Why?" Oh, come on! I can't even speak coherently! Ugh.

"Because that's where you were going," he answered simply. I suppose I just gave him a blank look because he smiled before continuing.

"After that kiss in the forest, I realised something, Ashleigh. I realised that I was in love with you. Ever since I saw you, I was intrigued and dumfounded by your beauty. But I had never realised that I loved you. Once I realised it, I wasn't just going to let you run off to some country. I needed to at least know that you were alright. And I knew I had to tell you I loved you, but if you hadn't feel the same, and I was expecting that you wouldn't, then I would have backed off." His lips brushed mine gently.

"But you don't know how happy it made me to hear you say that you love me."

"I-I do. I do love you. And I only realised it a few minutes ago. Right before you came." I smiled.

"And you don't know how happy it made me to hear you say that you love me, too." He grinned and rolled his eyes at my copying of his words.

"Do you still not want to go?"

I pondered. I was set on going back to Seaham and resuming my life, but now I had Daniel. Did I want to stay in Forks though?

It would be nice to have a familiar place again, and I could show Daniel everything about me and my life, but what did he want to do?

"I don't know. If you're going, I'll go but if you want to stay in Forks, I'll stay too."

"I don't care. As long as I'm with you. I'm thinking it would be more comfortable for you to be back home, but if you want to stay in Forks, then I'm up for that too." He winced slightly.

"Although, we'd probably have to stay with the Cullens, and I don't know how that would-" I cut him off, he didn't need to explain.

"Ok, then we're going to Seaham." I smiled at him.

"Last call for flight 38-D to England. Flight 38-D to England." The speak voice boomed again.

Daniel smiled at me.

"Shall we?" I let go of my hold on him and turned to walk towards the boarding station. He wrapped his arm around my waist and walked with me.

We handed our tickets to the flight attendant and boarded the plane. Several passengers raised their eyebrows at our lack of luggage, but no one said anything.

Lucky for us, the aisle that had my seat number on it was empty, so Daniel was able to sit next to me.

I took the window seat, hoping he wouldn't mind but also unwilling to give it to him if he did. Fortunately for me, he didn't seem to mind. Although I'm pretty sure if he had minded, I would've given it to him anyway.

We sat in silence until the plane was in the air completely and the 'Fasten Seatbelts' sign was unlit. I unfastened my seatbelt. Those things were horribly uncomfortable.

Daniel raised his eyebrow at me.

"If the plane suddenly crashes, you'll wish you had that on."

I rolled my eyes at him. Silly vampire. I was about to say that out loud when I stopped. Maybe his mind was still set on Bella. Maybe he momentarily forgot that I wasn't human.

Biting my lip, I stole a glance at him out of the corner of my eye. He was staring at me with the hint of a smile on his face. I was suddenly self-conscious. I squirmed in my seat, causing the elbow rest to jab into my side. It didn't hurt my granite skin, but it was annoying. I shifted to the right and glared at the offending piece of rubber-covered metal.

Daniel stifled a laugh and placed his hand on the elbow rest. Suddenly, it was not there and I faintly smelled the scent of burning rubber. It was too faint for a human to notice.

He made a fist with his hand and then opened it, showing me the miniscule pieces of rubber and metal that was once the elbow rest.

I smiled. He had obliterated what was annoying me. It was such a sweet gesture, even if I was able to do it myself.

"Thanks." I rolled my eyes slightly, a smile still on my lips.

"You're welcome. But it was a purely selfish act." He grinned and wrapped his arm around me, scooting me across the seats so that I was sitting in the middle of our two seats- right where the elbow rest had been- and was leaning against him.

I was surprised at first, but I snuggled into him, feeling like I belonged there.

"Be selfish more often, would you please?" I almost laughed out loud at how cheesy that sounded.

"It would be my pleasure." He put his finger on my chin and tilted it up towards him and kissed me.

I sighed softly, turning my body slightly so it was easier to kiss him and pull my fingers through his hair.

He wrapped his arms around me and pulled me closer, making me turn towards him again. We didn't stop kissing until I realised that I was in his lap.

I squeaked in embarrassment and returned to my seat, again feeling like I was blushing but knowing that I wasn't.

Daniel's lips pressed together tightly as he suppressed a laugh. A laugh that I was sure would be loud and oh so beautiful.

I bit my lip and gave him a wary look.

He picked me up and placed me in his lap again. Before I could protest, his lips were on mine and my hands were once again in his hair. I traced his face with my fingers occasionally, but allowed my fingers to enjoy roaming his hair. His hands rubbed my back, sometimes up and down, sometimes in circles. Occasionally, he would press me closer to him, which would make me sigh and cause him to smile.

When the plane hit turbulence, I was forced to sit in my seat again and put on the stupid seatbelt.

But it gave me time to think about him and think about how we got to this point.

It really blew my mind.

I saved Edward, brought him back to Forks, met Daniel, embarrassed myself several times, went hunting with Daniel, decided to return home, realised I loved Daniel, and then kissed him. Now we were on the way to Seaham, where I would show him where I lived and tell him about my life. But what would happen next?

Would Daniel actually continue loving me? If so, what would we do?

Would we get married? Would we not? Would we stay in Seaham? Would I tell him about Caleb? Could I let myself forget about Caleb and the past and focus on Daniel and the future? Could I love Daniel while I still loved Caleb? Would Daniel mind? Did he still love Bella? Would he tell me if he did? What would I do if he did? Would I mind?

All the questions were beginning to stress me out, and I didn't want to voice them to Daniel yet so I shoved them into the back of my mind and spent the rest of the flight talking to Daniel.

We mostly talked about unimportant things. What car I had, our favourite colours, our favourite music, etc…

The real questions that I had could wait for later.

In the meantime, I enjoyed being with him and enjoyed the fact that I had found love again. Losing my first love was tragic, and life had finally been restored to me. Yay.

Haha, crappy ending I know. Sorry. I hope this chapter was long enough for you! And I hope you liked it!
