Chapter 14

"Your parents were really nice to me before but do they kind of like me?" I asked Edward.

"They already love you. I just hope they don't scare you off."

"I don't think that's possible."

"Did I scare you?"

"Not in the way that you're thinking of and that was then, this is now. Actually Rosalie is pretty scary."

"She'll behave."

"So what's it like to have siblings?"

"You'll find out soon enough..." He said, and pulled into the the driver. Like the gentleman he is he opened the door for me.

"Thanks. Woah...it's huge." I said. It was large, modern but with the essence of a victorian home. It had a small porch and large windows to let in light; It was clearly built to withstand the cold, rain, and time.

"A regular house would be a bit stifling after a while."

"I suppose. Was it custom built?"

"Yes, and made to last. We move around a lot but this location is one of our favorites. Thick wilderness, abundant wildlife and little to no sun."

"How many houses do you own?"

"Soon it will be four."

"Then you're going to move?"

"Well...we can't stay stay in one place for long but not for another year. Let's go,"

The door was unlocked, I suppose vampires is enough of a security measure. The house immediately opened to the living room, a roomy one at that, and on the left was a spacious lounge. The inside of the house matched the outside; it had the same color scheme in the form of materials like the outside and a few souveniers from other places while the walls were white to bounce the limited natural light around.

"Through there is the kitchen."

"I thought you didn't eat?"

"Esme loves to bake, it's one of her favorite things to do. Interior decorating is another. Sometimes she works as one." Suddenly vampires fell from the loft-like second floor and staircase.

"Bella!" Alice cried as she fell. She ran up to me and immediately pulled me into a hug, then I had only just lifted my hands to accept her.

"H-hey,"

"'Bout time, I've been waiting to be introduced. This is Jasper,"

"It's a pleasure to meet you." He said while holding his breath.

"So Edward would share snacks after all." Emmett said with a grin.

"Uh..." I chuckled awkwardly.

"Emmett, what are you-"

"Edward's a don't-touch-my-stuff kind of guy-"

"That's because you always dent things."

"You wish you had my guns."

"Well, you'd need to buy me dinner before you get yours..." I tried to joke.

"Nice! I'm Emmett, this is Rose."

"Rosalie." She corrected.

"It's great to meet you guys here, where you know, you don't have to act human." Then his parents came from the kitchen.

"Mr. and Mrs. Cullen,"

"Carlisle and Esme Bella," Esme reminded me as she kissed my cheek.

"Hello Bella, everything alright?"

"Perfect, no one's the wiser." I said with a wink and a thumbs-up.

"We never doubted you, I was refering to your health."

"I'm as healthy as a horse."

"Good. I have to return to the hospital now; I can't stand being away for so long. Please, make yourself at home."

"Thanks...So, uh, your house is really something."

"Thany you." Esme said sweetly. "Can I get you anything?"

"No, I'm fine."

"I'm going to give her a tour...uh, mmm." I chuckled at that as Edward pulled me away to the floating stairs.

"That went well."

"I'm surprised it wasn't worse."

"I think your familly is awesome. I can tell though there's a competition to one-up Emmett's jokes."

"You handled it just fine." He said through a smile. "On this floor is Carlisle's study, there's the balcony, and a room where I keep my piano."

"So you play?"

"Yes, I enjoy it."

"I wish I could, but I'm just not nimble with my fingers. Graduation caps?"

"We matriculate a lot."

"Gosh...I feel sorry for you."

"We were able to go to college which changed it up a bit but due to our appearance we wouldn't be able to pass as adults."

"Right, yeah about that...why were you changed at such young ages-nevermind, it's too soon for me to know."

"Well, Emmett was dying from his wounds from being mauled by a bear, I can tell you that."

"Still, that's awful."

"...Up here are our rooms. Alice and Jasper's, Emmett and Roalie's, My parents, and this...this is my room."

"...It's nice, classier than mine." It could be a representation of his life. Everything was the same as the rest of the house; clean lines, and organized. His representation was done by the collection of CD's and sound system.

"I...like yours best."

"You've...been to my room?"

"When I stole your passport and...I-I watched you sleep. Last night."

"Oh. Did...you give me my passport back?"

"It's back in your drawer."

"That was...my underwear drawer..."

"I-I didn't look."

"That's impossible. It's okay though."

"Really?"

"Yeah," I said almost breathlessly. "So, um, how've you been? It's been three days since you fed, you know."

"Uh...I'm trying not to think about it. I caused a lot of trouble so I don't want..."

"Oh."

"You're disappointed?"

"Um...in a way. It doesn't much after..."

"You're terrible. Taunting me like that." His eyes turned black and he stepped closer and closer.

"I-I didn't mean-"

"It hasn't been easy, hearing your heart pump, being with you. I want you. I want to devour you, I want to savor you. I want you to give yourself to me and I want to take you. I want you to be mine forever. It isn't fair what you do to me. I don't deserve to suffer anymore, so please,feed me."

He grabbed my head and shoulder and bit into the scar he left last time. I couldn't help the gasp of pain that escaped my mouth but it died off into a moan as his bite took it's 'effect'. I tried to push his teeth in deeper, pressing his head into me, as if it would get me closer to my climax. He growled and suddenly we were on his couch, my wrists held together above my head in his grip.

"Don't!" He screamed.

"I-I'm sorry, I'll be good." He hung his head, his lips just an inch from mine. Still filled with the need, I tried to kiss him but he turned away.

"You don't...want me?"

"Not like this, I don't want it to be ruined by this...monster."

"...I see. Should I put some distance between us?"

"No, anything but distance."

"Okay...well, you're siblings share rooms so, are they like us?" I asked, trying to distract him.

"Yes, but they've gotten married before...We grew up in times where pre-marital sex was frowned upon."

"Is marriage the same as marriage between humans then?"

"Exactly the same."

"Cool."

"Yeah..."

"Would we...would you want that?"

"To be married?"

"Yeah,"

"Doesn't everyone."

"Not really."

"Do you?"

"Well yeah...if I could."

"Would you marry me just to have sex with me?"

"Well no, but it's a nice plus." He smirked at me.

"But you said you were going to move in a year," I want him to stay, or go with him but...would I be bothersome? Would I be allowed?

"I don't...want you to go."

"Would you come with me?"

"If...it's okay with you?"

"It's more than okay," He asked, as if I should have known.

"But you do know what I mean right? Since you're going to live forever, so will I."

"It's your decision Bella, I just want you to be sure; it can't be reversed. I need you to know what you would have to leave behind. I need you to be sure, for both of our sakes. If you grew to regret the decision, I would feel guilty."

"I am sure. I don't think I would regret it but it sure as hell won't be your fault so you shouldn't feel guilty."

"Just...wait a year, at least."

"Do you promise not to take off? I'll hunt you down you know."

"I know, I promise."

Was this nice? I think it was nice. Grr! I hated it when Edward left Bella in New Moon, I was like, what the fuck asshole, it's MY choice! I'll chain you up if I have to. XP

Excuse my 'french' but in all seriousness, it was always her choice. Those pages with the one letter were the most disturbing I have ever read. I mean, we're all waiting or have waited a REALLY long time for 'the one' right? Everybody is whether they like or read Twilight so for them to take that way away is sooooo, ugh, not...
