It was night. And I felt extremely uneasy. I had just kissed Derek; our first kiss, full on the lips and I could have sworn that I felt someone watching. I shivered as I remembered the feeling. The creeks that I kept hearing all over my room didn't help appease my mind either. Suddenly, another creek sounded. I sat up from bed, rubbing my temples, my closed eyes. I took a deep breath and opened my eyes. I nearly screamed out loud. There stood opposite me was Edward. I stared at him for a few seconds, horrified, my hand clamped over my mouth until I regained my posture.
"What're you doing here? Get out!" I
hissed angrily.
"Bella, let me explain, please! We can't
just break up without you hearing an explanation from me! There's
no reason, no justice!" I glared hardly at my once beloved and he
glared back. I sat back.
"Fine."
"Okay, what did you say I called you? Stupid? Ugly? Weak? Well, think about it, do you think I would call you these things?"
"No, but you did."
"No I didn't. But more on that later. So, did Derek ever tell you his power?" I looked at Edward carefully, searching my memory. I had a flashback.
"So, Derek, what is your power?"I asked casually. We were in his backyard, sharing a bowl of ice cream. Derek hesitated.
"I don't think I'll like to discuss it with you…for your own good."
"For my own good? What do you mean?"
"So
what'd you think of the movie last night?"
"No,
he didn't discuss it with me."
"Well, I know what his power is. Want to know?"
"What?"
"He can change shapes, forms, take on the appearance of anyone he wants." I
paused, thinking about this new piece of information, then it all clicked.
"Oh my God, Edward, he changed into you! He said those things to get you mad!"
"Exactly. He wanted you to leave me so you were available."
"Edward, I am so sorry, I should have given you a chance to explain!" Edward smiled meekly, running his long fingers through his hair, relieved that it was all settled.
"Can you ever forgive me?" I asked shyly.
"Off course I can." He smiled. I smiled back weakly and before I knew it, his lips were on mine. The kiss was sweet and passionate and I wrapped my arms around his neck, throwing myself into it a little more. Just this one time however, he did not stop me. Finally, he pulled away and stood up.
"See you tomorrow?"
"Definitely." He started to walk away when I called softly to him.
"Edward?"
"Yes, Bella?"
"I love you," He grinned.
"I love you too."
The next day, after school, I walked over to Derek's house. I had some matters to settle with him.
"Derek?"
"Hey, Bella!" He called. "In the house!" I walked to him where he was reading a book on the couch. Something was different about him though I couldn't put my finger onto it. He obviously had no idea what happened yet. He put his book down.
"Derek, we gotta talk."
"Sure Bella, what's on your mind?" He wrapped his arm around my waist, and pulled me close to his body. I almost gagged when I smelled the liquor on his breath and wondered why I never noticed it before, I pulled away.
"I know what your power is." He looked down confusedly at me, his eyes narrowed. I continued.
"You can change into any shape or form, take on any appearance. You took on Edward's appearance. And made me break up with him." He advanced towards me as I began backing up until I was against the wall.
"Clever girl, huh?"
"So, um…" I began to grow nervous at the close proximity. "I don't want to be…involved with you anymore." At this he gripped my wrist tightly. As soon as he did that, I knew it was a mistake coming here alone and unprotected.
"You're going to have to…" He
whispered, pressing his face against mine.
"Let me go!" I
tried to pull away but he gathered me in his arms and threw me onto
the couch. I tried to jump up to run away but he pushed me back down.
I screamed.
"Help!" But he pressed his lips down against mine, silencing my scream to only a desperate a muffle. When he released me, he began to bind me tightly with rope, my wrists together and my ankles together.
"Edward!" I screeched. He reached out and slapped me hard and tied a piece of cloth tightly around my lips, gagging me.
"Mmmm!" I screamed against the cloth, struggling against my bondage and withering against his arms. He smiled and picked me up.
"Let's get you somewhere where no one can find you. You're mine…all mine now." And he threw me into his Mercedes and drove off, me crying bitter, muffled sobs in the back.
What will happen to Bella? Want more? R&R!!!
