"What!"
I felt the basket begin to fall form my hand, yet I made no motion to catch it. Edward however, did. Like a bolt of lightning he grabbed it before it hit the ground. I was going into shock.
"Did he just say that?" I wondered, trying to convince myself it was real. I never thought anyone would actually want him to change me. Edward began chuckling at my response. Obviously my mouth had dropped open and still was. Taking my hand he guided me up to the front where the registers were positioned, but not without a comment. I heard whisper under his breath, "I guess I picked the wrong time."
Once at the register the boy scanned the food and was handed a green card. I felt Edward then raise his hand to my mouth and close it. Edward got his card and the groceries and walked away while the boy told us to have a nice day.
We rushed to the car, Edward's skin glistened like crystals, bringing unwanted attention to ourselves. The car was already unlocked so we jumped in the front seat and sep off.
"Well, are you going to listen to him and will you please tell me where we are going?" I was getting frustrated with him, he hardly answered any of my questions and it was beginning to get on my nerves.
"Alaska, and I am not sure Bella, we have to talk about it when the time is right. Being changed into a Vampire is not something you just do on a whim. Once we are committed to this, there is no going back."
I gave him a look, but didn't argue. "So where in Alaska are we going, anyway?"
"Not sure, Carlisle thought it best to not tell me, incase I had another run in with Aimes. He will be calling soon, to give us directions."
"Oh." I wasn't all that sure how to respond so I figured that should just about some it up.
Edward glanced over at me. "What are you thinking?" he asked.
"I just can't seem to make myself believe that all this is real."
"Oh my god, Bella, your father you were supposed to call your father a long time ago."
"What, oh, great, he probably has the rest of the precinct out looking for me by now. That is just perfect." I rolled my eyes, but deep down I was worried.
Edward pulled out my cell phone and I quickly began to punch in a number.
"Hello, Bella." It was a deep seductive voice that came over the phone. It wasn't my father's.
