Okay, this is my first Twilight fiction so don't expect it to be spectacular. The first half of the chapter was based on a dream I had. So I hope you enjoy it, and please tell me truthfully if its good or not. Thanks to my bff Jessica for helping me with ideas
UPDATE:I updated some of this chapter along with most of Chapter 2. Nothing major here, just a few grammar changes.
Chapter One-The FieldI lay beside Edward in the middle of a field filled with honeysuckles and grass. My right hand rested on his right hip as he ran his cold hand trough my hair. I felt most comfortable around him at times like these, where we don't even have to speak. On the other side of the field, I could see Alice and Jasper throwing a brown football back and forth. Earlier, Edward had tried to teach me how to throw a football properly, but I had no co-ordination at all. Every time I tried to throw the ball his way, I would end up twisting my arm the opposite way I was aiming, and throw my balance off only to fall.
I looked at his astonishing gleaming skin, amazed of his immaculate exquisiteness. His eyes were closed, but I knew he wasn't sleeping, only resting his eyes from the luminous sun. "You know what they never told me about you?" I asked him. His eyes kept closed, but he forced out a grunt of acknowledgement. "That you would give me so many butterflies in my stomach."
At this he opened his eyes and looked into mine. "You are so funny, Bella." A slight blush of pink crept over my pale face, making him smile. He placed his free hand on top of my stomach, and my heart began to beat faster. "Take a deep breath and release those butterflies." I did as he said, and almost immediately felt my stomach settle itself. I took my hand from my side and placed it atop his.
"I love you." He stated to me. I nodded, as he waited for an answer. "I know." I told him.
"Oh, so you think you don't have to say it back?" He questioned me.
"Of course, why say it when it would be a lie." At first, his eyes widened in disbelief, then a look of hurt washed the previous one away. I smiled, indicating I was only joking, then his face showed a look of mischievousness. In one swift movement, he positioned himself over top of me and began to tickle my sides.
My laughs and protests spilled into the silent field. I Yelled, kicked and screamed trying to get him off of me, but his astounding strength held me down. "I won't stop until you admit you love me."
"Fine! I love you! Now stop before I pee my pants." When the last words left my mouth, he stopped the tickling.
" I knew you loved me." I lifted my hand and stroked his jaw, admiring his beautiful face. Slowly and gently, he lowered his face towards my exposed collarbone and placed a gentle kiss on it. The one small kiss sent a wave of shivers up my spine and down my legs to my toes.
"Did you ever doubt it?" My voice came out serious.
"Never."
"Never?" I confirmed.
"Not since the day I met you." My blush creped through my cheeks once again. I placed a soft kiss on his glimmering lips.
"Let's go." He stood up, reaching out to me to help me to my feet. I was astounded once again of his splendour, and was frozen in one spot.
"What will I ever have to do with you, silly silly Bella." Slowly, I stood up, trying not to ruin this moment with my clumsiness. Once I was standing, his hand reached for mine, and we walked hand in hand to his silver Volvo. I sunk into the inviting seat, exhausted from our long day of physical activity. Edward sat in the drivers seat next to me, and I was disappointed that his skin was no longer glowing. The car roared to life, and music floated from the speakers. I felt Edward grab my hand a place a soft kiss on it as we began to drive. I turned and smiled at him.
The car pulled into the driveway of my house, and I stepped out. Edward was quickly at my side. "I'll see you tonight." I nodded, already knowing this. He leaned down, filling the gap between our faces and placed and kiss on my lips. Although it only lasted a few quick seconds, I felt blissful. I walked away no, walk is and understatement, I floated into my house, never tripping or falling. I heard Edward laughing behind me, obvious of what his kiss had done to me.
Once I was inside, I walked into the kitchen to figure out what to make for dinner. I really did not feel like fish, so I looked deeper in the freezer. Way in the back, I found some frozen chicken I had bought last week. I laid it on the counter to thaw, and grabbed some potatoes and asparagus out of the fridge.
After cooking for an hour or so, Charlie came home. I placed the meal in front of our usual chairs.
"How was you day, Bella?" I swallowed the bite of potato I was eating. "It was great, I went and played football with Edward and his family." He nodded and continued eating.
"And um, tonight Edward was hoping I could go to his house." Charlie stopped eating and looked up at me.
"Bells, I don't know if that's a good idea, I mean I trust him but He's just like any other hormone driven teenage boy." I almost choked on a piece of asparagus. If only you knew Charlie, if only you knew.
"Dad, you have to trust me and Edward."
"Okay Bella. I guess it's all right. Just be careful." I felt immense sympathy towards Charlie. I was his only child and I'm growing up. I grabbed the two empty dinner plates and placed them in the warm bubbly water.
"Don't worry about the dishes Bells, I'll do them tonight." I smiled at him, wanting so bad to go over to him, give him a big hug and tell him everything's all right, and I'm not leaving him. But I knew that it was just awkward contact.
I ran up the stairs to grab a jacket from my room. When I opened the door, I nearly had a heart attack. Sitting on my bed, holding my jacket was Edward.
I clutched my shirt above my heart. "You always do that."
He walked towards me, placing a hand on my chest, where my hand had previously been.
"I'm sorry." He said, and placed a kiss on my forehead. "I'll be waiting for you outside." I smiled as he placed my jacket in my hands.
I bounded down the steps in big strides, still managing to keep my balance. As promised, Edward was outside, standing by the open door of his Volvo. "Nice to see you again, Miss. Swan" He said, and kissed my cheek.
"Likewise, Mr. Cullen." I slid into the soft seat, and Edward closed the door for me. Who ever said chivalry was dead? We drove down the road at an alarming speed. My head rested on the cold glass of the window, watching as the white dotted lines along the road flashed by. Sensing something was wrong, Edward placed his hand on my knee.
"What's on your mind?" I sighed, not wanting to tell him.
"Nothing." He looked at me, knowing that I was lying.
"I'm always honest with you Bella, please be honest with me, I just care for you and I want to know how you're feeling." I rubbed my temple with my fingers, knowing that I should tell him but still not wanting to.
"Fine. You want to know what I'm thinking. I'm thinking about how you left me for two weeks, not telling me where you went, who you were with and what you were doing. I'm not a mind reader like you are. I'm still mad about it. I just didn't want to bring it up, cause I knew you'd blow up on me." I felt his hand leave my knee, and place it on the steering wheel. I saw the speed go up to 120 on the speedometer.
3 weeks ago, Edward and I had gotten in a fight, over what I forget, but he had gotten mad and left for two weeks. He didn't tell me where he went, nor did he tell his family.
I was heart broken, lost and confused. When he came back last week, I was too excited to see him that I didn't question him at all. But today brought it all back.
We pulled up in front of his house, and as soon as the car had stopped, I got out. I was to full of emotions, sadness, anger and hurt. Why didn't he answer me? Did he have something to hide? I didn't know.
My legs took me up the stairs as fast as they could. I contemplated on what room to lock myself in. Definitely not Edwards, nor Rosalie's, and if I went in Alice's and Jasper's, she would certainly question me, and Jasper would try to calm me.
I settled on the bathroom. I slammed the door so everyone would know I was angry, to get my point across to Edward. I locked the door, and leaned against it. That's when the tears finally came. I slid down the door until I was sitting at the base of it. There, I curled me legs up to my chest, and I wrapped my arms around my legs. With my head in my lap, the tears fell. I kept crying until the tears became sobs.
