Enough for Forever
Chapter Three-
I was walking outside with Edward. It was such a beautiful day, ignoring the fact that it was dark and gloomy. The weather was warm and refreshing, and the fact that it was dark and gloomy made it so that Edward could be with me outside today. We sat underneath a tree in the Forks Park, his back leaning against the tree trunk and me sitting between his legs. I smiled at this moment, planting the memory firmly into my brain. Edward started to stroke my hair affectionatly, causing my eyes to begin to feel heavy. I shivered as a sudden wave of chill rushed up my spine. The air had suddenly turned cold. I looked off into the distance, and noticed a silhouette standing just a few feet from us. I shivered again as I made out a blur of shocking blonde hair. I gasped as it stepped forward, it's face hidden beneath a black hood. "I told you," a femine voice said. "Vampires don't mix well with humens." The woman's hand stretched out slowly. I noticed the creamy white of her skin and her perfectly rounded fingernails which were painted a blood red. I screamed. I screamed so loud, I was positive I would no longer have a voice. The hand took grasp of my shoulder and I noted the firm grip this stranger had on me. "Leave me alone!" I yelled at her. "Edward!" I started to sob. "Edward! Where are you?" I was crying now that I realized Edward was no longer with me. I tried to break free of this woman's hold, but to no success. Unintelligibly, I began to fling my arms, hoping that would ward her off. It didn't. I screamed louder and louder until...
"Bella! Owe, Bella! Stop it. Calm down Bella." I opened my eyes quickly and sat up with one fluid motion. My face was wet with tears and my heart was racing so fast. I tried to calm my breathing as Edward pulled me into his arms. I looked around and took in my surroundings. We were outside, underneath a tree, at the park. Edward started to rock me back and forth while he rubbed my back soothingly. I started to hick-up as I tried to stop the crying.
"Bella? What happened?" he asked quietly.
"I-I don't...remember," I hick-uped again. "All I remember is that, a woman, with blonde hair, was trying to kill me. She...She said something, but-I don't remember." Edward nodded as he thought about what I had just said.
"Would you like to go home now?" he asked as he continued to rub my back. I was about to answer when a young woman approached us. She had amazingly blonde hair, it was almost white, and beautifully glowing skin. As she got closer, I gasped at the color of her eyes. They were purple. I had never seen anyone with purple eyes before. It amazed me. She was around my height, maybe an inch or two shorter, and looked to be in great shape. To say she was gorgeous was an understatment. As I stared at her flawless face, something around her neck caught my attention. It was a necklace. The pendant was a silver star inside of a cirlce. and had purple gems planted ontop of it. It was attached to a leather black string, and wrapped securley around her neck.
"Excuse me," she said kindly, awakening me from my stupor. I blushed as I realized I was staring at her. "I was wondering if one of you could point me in the direction of Forks High School?" Her voice was soft and sounded like a musical note. Something as to what a flute would sound like. Edward and I stared at her as if she were mad. It wasn't hard to find the high school. The town was relatively small.
"I'm sorry," she began again, sounding nervous and unsure. "I'm new here. I just moved from England." Her british accent was now noticable to me. "Forgive me," she giggled. "My name is Moira. Moira Boyd."
I held out my hand to meet hers and shook it. "I'm Bella Swan. And this," I nodded behind me, "is my boyfriend, Edward Cullen." Edward nodded and held his hand out to her. She took it quickly and shook it. An unusual wave of silence flew between them. I looked Edward in the eye and noticed something. He looked to be concentrating on something, like he was trying to remember something. But it was gone as quickly as it had come.
"Um," I started to say. "Right, so uh, the high school." I said, trying to get back on topic. "If you go straight down this street here to the next light and take a left, then follow all the way down, the school should be on the right." She smiled at me and I noticed her perfect, gleaming white teeth. Wow. Being in her presence made my self-esteem drop, especially since she kept eyeing my boyfriend. I gripped his hand tightly as she continued to smile.
"Thanks. I guess I will see you two around?" she asked. I nodded.
"Most definatly. In a town as small as Forks, it's hard to keep away from people. So, if your expecting to live a life without everyone knowing who you are, you came to the wrong place." She laughed at my sarcasm.
"Thanks, that's good to know. Bye Bella. Bye Edward."
"Bye," Edward and I said in unison. We watched as Moira climbed into her red BMW. "Let's go," I said to Edward as I stood up and reached for his hand. He took it and stood up quickly. We walked to his Volvo and I climbed into the passenger side while he shut the door of the driver's.
The drive home was silent. As we started driving up the road to my house, I broke it. "Why were you so quiet back there?" I asked. I looked at him inquisitavly. He continued staring at the road. I could tell he was hiding something.
"I-She looked so familiar. I swear I have seen her before, I just...Don't know where." He looked at me quickly, then look back at the road.
Edward knew her? But how? No, he said he swears he's seen her before. It could have easily been someone else.
The entire ride back home, I kept thinking about her. There was something...funny about her. But I couldn't quite place my finger on it.
We pulled up into the drive way, and Edward quickly rushed over to my side. He opened the door, and helped me out kindly. I stood infront of him, waiting for him to do something. We stared into eachother's eyes for what seemed like hours. The smell of his lucious scent, accompanied by his glorious topaz eyes, was starting to dazzle me. I blinked when I noticed he was getting closer. When his firm lips pressed against mine, I forced myself to behave. I held very still, taking in the moment. When he pulled back, I opened my eyes.
Edward smiled, then said, "I will meet you in your room." He quickly got back into his car, and turned it on. He would take it back to his house, then come back. I nodded and turned around to walk through the door.
My dad was sitting in the front room, watching something on the TV. "Hey Bells," he called. I peeked into the living room and greeted him kindly.
"Hey dad."
"Are you hungry?"
"No, I'm just tired."
"Okay. Well I'll see you tomorrow. 'Night."
"'Night," I called back from the top of the stairs. As I walked into my room, I saw Edward sitting in the rocker chair. I walked over to him and gave him a quick kiss. "Can I have a human moment?" I asked. He nodded. I rushed over to my drawer quickly and pulled out my pajamas. Then grabbed my bag full of bathroom necessities and rushed to the bathroom. I quickly threw on my pajamas and brushed out my hair. Then I brushed my teeth, washed my face, and ran back into my room. Edward was laying on my bed. His eyes closed.
I quietly placed my bag on my dresser, and tiptoed over to my bed. As I was about to scare him, my plan backfired. "You know you can't scare a vamipre." I jumped back not expecting him to speak.
"Well, I can still pretend. You didn't have to ruin my fun." I pounted as I got in bed to lay next to him.
"All right, next time I'll let you scare me, and I will pretend to be scared."
I laughed. "Promise?"
"Promise."
I nodded. "Good." He laughed wholeheartedly.
"Good, now go to bed, Bella." I did as I was told. I rolled over onto my side, so my back was against Edward. His arm was wrapped protectivly around my waist. The last thing I saw as I fell asleep, were a pair of purple eyes.
A/N: Okay, I know this was really short. It was actually longer then I had anticipated. But, I am still sick and I could write anymore. I'm really sorry. I'm also sorry if there are spelling errors. My program doesn't have spell check, so I couldn't run it. I red through it, but sometimes I miss things.
