100 REVIEWS! YAY! Just wanted to say thank you, and the next goal will be 150 reviews, which I will be hoping to achieve in the next 4-5 chapters (hopefully less). Thanks for sticking with the story!
Last time:
'Bella...' Edward started,
'I'm going to get ants in my hair'. I grumbled. 'But what were you going to say?' I turned my head to look at his face, and saw it was silent and serious. He took my breath away. He could change mood rapidly... from almost dead looking to joking to solemn.
'I lied'.
'What about?' I asked, sitting upright abruptly from my slouch.
'You know that question you asked...'
'The one about what I mean to you?'
'Yes, well I didn't say that you were my friend, I...'
Oh no, this is it... he either says he really likes me (not possible) or that he doesn't want to know me anymore. Ugh, I can't take this! Oh! What did he just say? Did I just miss what he said?
Edward leaned in close.
'Edward would you repeat that for me-'
I was cut off when he kissed me. I sat frozen for a moment, my brain not responding. Then I melted into the kiss... it was like heaven.
I got this really weird sensation that someone was sliding inside me. I looked down, and I realised that Edward had fallen onto the floor, and that I couldn't see myself, but I could feel myself there.
'Bella? Bella? Where are you! I'm sorry, I – 'Edward exclaimed franticly.
'What do you mean? I'm right here'.
Edward looked wildly around were my voice came from and looked straight through me!
'I... I think I've turned invisible!' As soon as I said that, I felt myself returning, like mist that had been blown away.
He finally saw me, 10 feet away from where I had been sitting.
'Wow! Why don't you try it again?'
I shook my head, shuddering. I didn't like that feeling at all – sort of being detached from your body... like not being whole. It just didn't feel right at all.
I walked back and sat down again, blushing. The event I had been dreaming, hoping, yearning for... I had ruined.
'So typical me'. I grumbled. No words could describe how bad I felt now.
Edward ignored that comment and sat down beside me again. 'So you have 5 talents now, huh?'
'Yeah'. I sighed... I would have rather have finished the kiss than have a new talent (one I would probably never use anyway).
'Anyway, I said that, well you were my girlfriend...'
I felt like my heart would explode.
'Really?' I said incredulously, happiness leaking out in my tone. Luckily, this time it did encourage him to speak more, so he said;
'Well, that's how I feel.' He looked abashed and shy. 'If that's okay... I could always leave if you like'.
'No!' He looked up at my exclamation. He was always talking about leaving, and I did not want him to leave.
'I mean, I would love to be your girlfriend'. I blushed again at this, but it felt right.
He beamed his crooked smile again. 'I really like you Bella'. His hand curled round mine as he spoke.
'You're not like anyone else I've ever met'.
'Thanks. I suppose I've never been in a relationship with a vampire either'.
'So, have you been with someone else?' He said, eyebrows furrowing.
'Nope, no one else seems to like me... and I've never felt this way before'.
'I'm glad, though I don't believe that no one fancied you – you're very pretty Bella'.
'Thank you'. I blushed again. What was with me? I never really blushed – only round him. Well, I bet after an eternity with Edward, I bet my skin will be permanently red.
'Do you want to play baseball with my family tomorrow?' He asked suddenly.
I thought about it. I had never played baseball before; I didn't enjoy sports that much. Not only was I a klutz, but I could not use any of my enchantress powers to help me.
'Is it normal baseball?'
'Vampire baseball'. He confirmed with a grin.
'I'll go then'. I said, smiling.
Very, short, but a very important chapter (which will lead up to the fight with James)
Bella and Edward finally got together!
REVIEW PLEASE! (10-15 GETS IT TOMORROW)
Have a great New Year's Eve/Day everyone!
