I watched Edward run ahead of me, I knew now that I could easily outrun him but I stayed behind so that he could lead. We were several miles from the house now. The woods had the most wonderful smell. Everything was so earthy, I think I liked the smell of dirt the best. It held so many other smells with it. I could smell and hear all the things in the woods with us, even after they ran away from our presence. Everything was so different. I had no idea that there was so much to the world than what I had seen with weak human eyes. Edward was smiling as he watched my head whip back and forth.

He slowed down after a few minutes. I stopped behind him. He sniffed the air and turned to me. I sniffed as well. Somewhere close there was a large animal. I couldn't tell if it was a bear but it smelled like a predator. I waited as a breeze passed us. The scent was stronger. It was coming from directly in front of us. Maybe…100 or so yards away. I took a hesitant step forward. Edward smiled and held his hand out for me to lead. I walked past him, still taking in the scent. Then I let myself go. My pure vampire instincts kicked in and I shot through the trees. I saw the bear only a second before I tackled it. My strength crushed it. There was no time for it to strike back. When I sank my teeth into it I felt strange but good. It was like the strongest of desires fulfilled. After I drained it, I let the carcass lay beneath me.

Edward was standing behind me. I turned to him and found a face I had never seen before. His eyes were zeroed in on me and his lips were pulled up into an evil grin. He crouched and came at me. I let myself fall beneath him. His lips no longer crushed mine, we were on a level playing field now. I was just as able to pull at him as he was at me. I pulled myself as close to him as I could. Our bodies fit perfectly together. It was as if we were 2 pieces of a puzzle. His arms wrapped around me and pulled me close. He must have felt the same about not getting close enough. His tongue traced over the 2 bite marks on my neck and I shuttered. It was so much better that he didn't have to be careful. It was me that had to watch my strength now. My nails dug into his back tearing away the marble skin. I heard his teeth snap together but there was no other sign of what I had done. Edward grinned at me and captured my mouth again.

5 hours later we were still laying in the clearing. I was silently circling his chest with my finger. He was staring up at the sky. This was the first pause we had taken. The sky was dark and clouded. It was going to rain soon. I wondered what that would be like. Everything else was so different, why wouldn't the rain be as wonderful?

"We should go home."

I looked up at him.

"Why?"

"Because if we don't, I think we may be here for eternity."

"That doesn't bother me."

"Well love, its not that I don't want to continue this…" he gestured to our position, "…but the others will be home soon."

I sighed.

He laughed and stood up. I gazed at him as he dressed. His body was so perfect.

"Bella you cant go back naked."

Then he paused.

"Where is my shirt?"

I held what remained of his shirt up.

This time he sighed.

"At least you have pants, all my clothes are ruined."

He looked around at the tatters of my clothes.

"Guess I'm going to have to go get you some clothes then."

He suddenly ran into the woods and left me alone. I flipped onto my back and watched the clouds churn above me. Moments later Edward returned. He held out a short yellow dress.

"Really?"

"It was easy."

"Yeah but what about panties? Or a bra?"

He smiled.

"If you don't have panties on then I can take advantage of you whenever I want."

I snatched the dress out of his hands and pulled it over my head. It clung to my chest and hips but fanned out below that.

"Emmett and Rosalie are already home."

"Great, I cant wait for Emmett to start."

He laughed.

"Oh he already has. You should have heard him when he saw me without my shirt. Not to mention this."

He pointed to a silver mark on his shoulder.

"What….did I bite you?"

"Yes and don't be upset. It was incredibly sexy."

He took my hand and we started toward the house.

I could hear Emmett laughing in the house. Esme was scolding him. Carlisle was still upstairs and Rosalie was sitting. We walked in the large glass doors in the back. Esme smiled at us. Emmett eyed me and grinned. We walked in and sat in the large living room

"Wow Bella, you look good."

"Thanks Emmett."

"I cant believe it, I thought you guys were tearing each other apart!"

Edward glared at him.

"I really cant believe you're still around Edward, she is a newborn you know, I bet she could have torn you apart."

"Did you want to test that theory?"

I bared my teeth.

"Hell yeah!"

Emmett held the back door open for me. Edward gave him a warning look. The family followed us out.

"This should be an even fight, Emmett fights like a newborn." Edward said.

Emmett and I faced each other. He didn't stop smiling. I had no idea how to fight but my instincts weren't leaving me helpless. I had no time to think before Emmett was charging me. I leaped into the air and came down on his back. He growled and reached behind to grab me. I was gone before he could do it. I dropped to the ground and grabbed his legs. He fell forward but was back up in an instant. He snagged my arm and launched me across the yard. I landed on my feet several feet from the river. Emmett charged again and I waited for him. We hit at the same time. Our arms locked but I was stronger. For now. I twisted his arms and his knees gave out.

"Say uncle!"

"Yeah right!"

He tried to break my hold but couldn't. I was only days old, he couldn't beat me. I twisted his arms farther and he threw his back. I new the pain I was causing him.

"Just say uncle Emmet!"

"Never."

Before I could twist further, Edward and Esme separated us. Emmett looked horrified.

"What the heck?"

"Neither of you were giving up." Edward said.

"I could have beat her."

"No dear, she has too much strength." Esme patted his shoulder.

Emmett growled and walked into the house.

Edward laughed.

"Love that was great. Maybe now he will watch his mouth.I smiled.

"Well I have about a year to teach him how to be polite before he tears me apart."

"Like I would let him."

"I think I might let him get me at least once before I loose this strength."

"Lets hope I can let it happen."

He gripped my hand.

"So when will Alice and Jasper be home?"

"They should be here tonight."

"Oh."

"Something wrong?"

"You don't think Alice will be the slightest bit mad?"

"No. She didn't want me to feed on you, she never said she would be mad if I turned you."

"She might be mad."

"Why?"

"She wanted to have this all planned out for Charlie…"

"Don't worry, we will take care of all that."

"Why hasn't he showed up yet?"

"I don't know. He has Alice's number."

"I wonder what she told him."

"Knowing Alice, it will be something convincing."

I nodded.

We walked back into the house to wait for Alice and Jasper. I think we were both a little afraid of her.
