Hey guys!

Not a lot to say so, here is the next chapter, enjoy!

I DO NOT OWN TWILIGHT OR ANYTHING ELSE THAT MAY BE MENTIONED. I ONLY OWN WHAT I MADE UP!

The Last Sunset

Chapter 33. Memories and Bells

I stood up and was about to start running when Edward took my hand and spun me around to face him. "There's something I want to ask you, I wasn't sure if now was the right time. But if I don't do it now, I don't know when I will." I was about to speak when Edward stopped me by putting his finger to my lips.

"I love you, Zahra. We are going to be together for eternity and I need you to understand just how much I love you." He paused for a moment, looking around us. "I used to come here to think the last time we lived in Forks." I looked around, only just noticing the beauty in this small and peaceful meadow. "I came here a few days ago and I was trying to think of the best way to show you how much I loved you." He should have known by now that he doesn't need to do anything to prove his love for me. "Edward, I know how much you love me, you don't need to show me." He kissed my lips once and then continued. "Zahra. I love you and I need to do this."

He knelt to the ground and pulled out a small black box. "I promise to love you forever, every single day of forever; will you marry me?" What!? Marriage!? How did I not see that coming!? What!? The look on my face must have made it look like I was going to say no as Edwards face fell. I tried to take control of myself and let out a long breath, I didn't even know I was holding.

"Edward. I- I-. Well. Yes!" He jumped up from the ground and encased me in a tight hug and kissed my forehead down to my neck and placed the ring on my finger. "Edward, it's beautiful." I said admiring the ring on my finger. Edward smiled down at me. "It belonged to my mother, and her mother before her." I felt the need to cry again. "Wait until Alice-" Edward cut me off "she already knows, she saw me asking you but hid your reaction from me." I wrapped my arms around his waist and lay my head on his chest. After a few moments he pulled my head up to look into his eyes then kissed my lips with such passion and intensity that even as a vampire I could have been knocked off my feet.

This is could get used to! I smiled into our kiss as I thought it, but Edward sharply pulled away. "What is it Edward?" he had a look of pure shock on his face, which was unusual for Edward. "I just heard your thoughts." What? Wait, can you now? He didn't respond so I guessed that he couldn't. "What did I do?" he seemed completely puzzled, also strange for Edward. "Maybe it's your shield. You must have lifted it." I barely remembered the conversation that Kate and I had while I was still human.

*Flashback*

"Kate?" she was walking back though the door from her hunting trip "yes" I looked at the floor then back at Kate "I was just wondering how you use your ability, Eleazar thinks that I can shield as well, but that I will only be able to when I'm turned" she tipped her head sideways slightly "it would make sense, if Edward cannot read your mind and you do not feel my shield." She paused for a moment "but, each shield is different, you must find what it is that's makes yours stronger." In the space of two seconds Edward was standing next to me quietly growling at Kate. I know what that means. "Edward, forget it. I'm sorry I asked Kate." Edward kissed my forehead "sorry Kate it's just-" Kate interrupted "forget it Edward, no harm done."

*End Flashback*

"I need to speak with Kate." Edward nodded and we left the meadow. We scaled the wall and ran straight into Edwards's room. "I'll be back in a minute" Edward kissed my forehead and left the room. I could hear everyone talking downstairs. "Edward, do you really think she is a shield?" Carlisle seemed excited at our discovery. "Well, Amun felt it and Kate and I both think that is the only thing it could be. I'm going to ask Kate to visit soon and help Zahra."

"Good idea, Edward. But I think we should wait for a little while, give them some time to settle in back home. And I'm sure you too want some time to be alone." I heard Alice's 'shopping time' squeak. That is defiantly not a force not to be dealt with. I heard Edward laugh downstairs.

Edward came back into the room a few moments later "I heard that too, but I don't think Alice would appreciate you telling that to her." I laughed when I heard Alice shouting "you are going to be in trouble if you don't tell me Zahra!" I stopped laughing then remembered what Carlisle had said. "So, where are we getting time alone then?" Edward smirked at me. "Ease dropping, love?" "Edward, it's kind of hard not to overhear things when it sounds like the people downstairs are standing right next to you." He laughed "good point, and with that in mind, do you want to go somewhere a little more private?" I nodded and ran over to Edward, kissed him and ran downstairs. I was still faster than him. For now.

I think that I made this chapter a bit lame, but hopefully it will pick back up next chapter.
