I stare off into the trees that fly by as Edward drives towards our house. "How do you feel?" Edward asks Bella as he continues to drive.

"Irritated," responds Bella. That's an understatement. I would be angry if I was in her shoes.

Edward chuckles. "I meant your hand."

"I've had worse," replies Bella while shrugging. Like what Bella?

"How are you feeling Sophie?" I raise my eyebrows at Edward.

"Considering how I witnessed Bella punching Jacob after he kissed her; I'm fantastic Edward." I reply sarcastically.

Edward chuckles. Edward soon arrives at our house and drives around to the garage. I'm greeted to the sight of Rosalie underneath Emmett's jeep while he sits down to hand her tools. Emmett, always acting as the jack.

I hop out and make my way over to them. "Needing to fix this thing again Rosie?" Rosalie starts laughing underneath Emmett's car.

"Just tuning up loose ends. Nothing major."

"Hey! My jeep is in perfect condition," argues Emmett.

"Uh huh, ok Emmett. Keep telling yourself that," I reply while laughing. Emmett then notices Bella cradling her hand as she walks over to us.

"Fall down again, Bella?" he says with a grin.

Bella glares at Emmett fiercely. "No Emmett. I punched a werewolf in the face."

Emmett starts laughing. "Badass."

Rosalie suddenly appears beside me. "Jasper's going to win the bet Emmett." Emmett's smile is soon wiped off of his face.

That causes Bella to look shocked. "What bet?"

"Let's get you to Carlisle," interjects Edward as he tries to steer Bella inside.

"No, what bet?"

"Thanks Rosalie," grumbles Edward. I give Bella a little grin.

"Emmett and Jasper like to gamble. Their betting on how many times you will slip up in the first year."

Bella's eyes widen in realization. "They have a bet on how many people I will kill in my first year?" Bella grimaces.

"Yep. Rosie over here is thinking that your temper will turn the odds in Jasper's favor. He's betting high. It'll make him feel better if you have a hard time adjusting also. He's tired of being the weakest link."

"Oh, of course," mutters Bella.

I laugh as I follow Edward and Bella into the house. "Don't worry, they are betting on me too. Jasper is actually betting higher on me. He thinks I'll slaughter a whole village with my temper."

"Would I love to see that. Seeing you mad turns me on," says Alex who appears out of nowhere. I almost want to choke in surprise.

Edward gives Alex a withering glare. "Careful Alex," growls Edward. Great, big protective brother coming out.

"Seriously? Can you not talk about that?" I did not want Alex to be murdered by my family. Alex grins at me and kisses my head.

"Sorry, can't help it," he replies. I sigh in defeat. "Come on, let Carlisle tend to Bella," says Alex. I nod my head as he takes my hand in his.

"Fine. Bye Bella. Make sure not to hit anymore werewolves." I let out a laugh as Alex drags me away from everyone and leads us outside into the backyard.

"Where are we going?" I give him a small grin.

"Well, we haven't been on a date in a while and I thought this was a perfect opportunity to kidnap you."

My whole face lights up. "Kidnap me? Is it kidnapping if I give you permission to take me on this date."

He shrugs as he looks down at me. "Not really, but I find it more interesting." I give him a smile in return. I squeal as he lifts me into his arms. "Come on. It's a far walk to where we are going. It'll be faster if I ran to it."

I nod and close my eyes as he starts running into the wind blows into my hair as Alex runs in an unknown direction. I'm not sure where we are going, but to spend time alone with him sends my heart racing.

All too soon, he stops running. "Don't open your eyes yet." I keep my eyes shut as he sets my feet onto the ground. I let him lead me to wherever he's taking me. All too soon, he stops. "Ok, you can open your eyes now."

I slowly open my eyes and gasp at the sight before me. The first thing that I notice are the flowers that litter all over the grass. Lavender, daises, and other flowers are situated all around. They create a border around a ledge that leads to a small river. A waterfall calmly pours water into the river, and I watch as the water travels down the stream. The view is breathtaking. I smile and turn to see Alex standing into the moonlight. The moon emits a glow that just adds to the beauty of the meadow.

"I thought you would like this place. It's peaceful," says Alex.

"It's beautiful. Thank you." He smiles as he comes closer to me. I let him cradle my face with his hands and close my eyes in bliss. I slowly open them and lean forward to place a kiss on his lips. He starts to deepen the kiss and stops so that I can come up for air.

He smiles and chuckles. "You are going to be the death of me, Sophie Cullen." I giggle and give him a quick peck on the lips. I step back and sit down on the grass, gazing at the flowers that surround us. Alex sits next to me and I curl up against him.

I lie against him as he twirls a strand of my hair in his fingers. "Seems like you had an interesting day. Got to witness a human attacking a werewolf."

I smile "It was interesting. I missed you though." Alex takes that moment to kiss my head.

"As did I Sophie."

I let out a sigh and sit up straight to look at him. I needed to talk to him about the future; our future. What would happen in the next coming years? Breaking Dawn would be coming soon and I have yet to decide if I should let Bella and Edward know about the events that will unfold.

"So, we haven't really talked about the future. I don't know when I'll be turned. I'm going to be honest. I'm worried about the future Alex. Graduation is around the corner and Bella want's to be turned right after. Victoria is coming and that's a fight coming for us also. I'm worried everything is going to implode. I want to know what your thoughts are on me being turned. I don't want to be like you until a couple of years from now. I want to travel and experience my human life before it changes"

Alex looks at me and ponders. "You already know my thoughts on you being turned. I want to spend the rest of eternity with you Sophie. I'll keep you human as long as you want to be. Just tell me when you are ready and I'll be the one to change you."

"What if I'm ready now?"

Alex gives me a look. "Now, that is a lie. You just told me that you want to wait; but if you were, I would change you."

I smile at him. "Ok. You make everything sound so easy." I stare at the man sitting before me and can't help but to ponder why me? Was I always meant to have someone in this world? A world that shouldn't exist. I look at him before pulling him closer to me. He doesn't object as my lips slam onto his. I greedily kiss him. I wanted to show him how much he means to me. I start to show him as much passion as I can. I didn't know how to say this, but I was in love with this man. A vampire that shouldn't exist. This vampire who I couldn't stand at first; has melted my heart.

I continue to hungrily kiss him when Alex suddenly lets out a growl. I'm soon spun around on my back while he hovers over me. I close my eyes in bliss and let out a pant as he trails kisses up my neck. In the blink of an eye, he has me pinned against a tree. I wrap my arms and legs around his neck and waist. I slam my lips back onto his and continue making out with him. The only thought on my mind was of him and how much I wanted him. I start to tug at his shirt when he breaks away from me.

I'm panting from the lack of air and watch as he smiles at me before lowering me back onto my feet. A flush of embarrassment overcomes me. "I'm sorry," I say.

He chuckles and kisses my forehead. "Don't apologize. Trust me, I enjoyed it too. Just, not tonight. I want your first time to be special, and not in the woods against a tree." I let out a laugh. "Besides, your family is probably waiting for us to come back." I nod.

"Are you against it?"

"Against what?"

"Us..um...while I'm still human." I'm instantly flushed with embarrassment. I couldn't let the words escape from my mouth.

Realization dawns on his face chuckles and kisses my forehead again. "No, I'm not against it. If you want to while you are still human, then we can. Just tell me when." I smile and nod. "I do want you to be sure, though. If it's really what you want. If I'm really what you want."

I stare at him in confusion. "What are you talking about? Of course I want you. I want to be with you. Why wouldn't I?"

"Sophie, we wouldn't be able to have children together."

I give him a sad smile in return. He could give me children, but not in my case.

"You don't need to worry about that. I can't have kids anyway."

"What?"

I smile sadly at him. "The car accident I was in as a kid caused some damages. The internal bleeding and being stabbed with glass damaged some things... Basically, Carlisle told me it's impossible for me to ever carry a child." I watch his reaction as realization dawns on him.

"Sophie, I'm sorry."

I shake my head. "Don't be. I've come to terms with it. I honestly didn't know if I even wanted children." Alex gives me a chaste kiss on the lips.

"I love you Sophie, and just know that I will always be here for you." Alex is the angel that was needed. That I would always need.

"I love you Alex." We both laugh as he spins me around.

"Come on. I'll take you back home." He sweeps me off of my feet yet again. I close my eyes in complete bliss as he takes me back home.

I've had really bad writer's lately. Working on the next chapter so hopefully I will get it finished soon. This chapter was more of a filler. Graduation will be in the next chapter. Until next time!
