Chapter 13
For a bunch of people who don't eat, they can seriously cook. I took a great big bite of mashed potoatos Esme had cooked for supper and blush when I noticed Edward watching.
He laughed a little bit and walked out of the room. I wonder if my cheeks were still red.
I was about to go up to my room when I heard beautiful music coming from the living room. My curiosity got the better of me, so I went out to see who was playing. I was more then surprised when I saw Edward sitting at the piano, playing. He had his eyes closed and his fingers were gliding across the keys with such grace.
I sat next to him just watching him play for a couple seconds. Eventually he opened his eyes.
"Do you want to try?" he asked. His silky voice made my heart skip a little bit. I blushed slightly.
"I don't know how to play." I said, looking down. I wished right now that I knew how to play.
He smiled and said, "Give me your hands". As he took my hands in his, I felt a slight feeling of electricity. He noticed it too but didn't drop my hands.
He began guiding my hands across the keys. Making sure my fingers hit all the right keys. It took everything I had not to let my breathing hitch in my chest. I blushed slightly, my stomach forming knots.
"Okay, you try. Just play something. Play from your heart," he said.
So I hit a couple keys and made an awful noise. My cheeks heated a little bit. But I closed my eyes and tried again. This time I began to think about how happy I was right now. My fingers touched the keys and the music that came out wasn't too horrible. I opened my eyes and continued to play. I could feel Edward watching me and my cheeks heated a little bit more.
Eventually he began to play with me and before I knew it, we were playing music. Real music. The whole family had filtered into the room at that point and they all looked amazed.
I blushed and smiled. Everyone clapped and Jasper came over and kissed my cheek.
"You have you mother's gift for music," he said.
I smiled and stood up. My stomach growled revealing that I was hungry. I looked over to the clock and gasped. I had been playing the piano with Edward for four hours. I hadn't even noticed that much time had past. I was so happy, in pure bliss.
Edward had that effect on me. Time stood still whenever I was around him. He made me feel complete.
I followed Esme into the kitchen and got myself a sandwich to eat before I went to bed.
"Sweetheart, me and Edward are going hunting," Jasper said, followed by Edward. I nodded and blushed a little bit.
"Good night," I said, yawning.
A couple minutes after they were gone, I found myself wishing that they were back. As much as I wanted my father back more then anything it was Edward I missed.
That's when I realized. The blushing, butterflies in my stomach... I was falling for Edward Cullen.
I Jasmine Whitlock, was in love with Edward Cullen... a vampire.
