Chapter 7

"Hi guys!" Alice exclaimed, jumping up besides us. I was shaken out of my daze.

"Alice" Edward snarled softly. We both leaned back, not looking at each other.

Ohhh…sorry guys, I'll come back later," Alice said, and she ran off to Rosalie's seat a few rows behind us. But it didn't matter. The mood was ruined.

There was a heavy awkward silence between us. Neither Edward nor I had anything to say. I kept sneaking looks at him, but he never turned to look at me. He just stared out the window, oblivious to his surroundings. I could hear Alice laughing quietly behind us. I sighed.

Eventually Edward turned to face me and began to speak.

"You don't look so good, Bella". He spoke softly. I had to lean in closer to hear him.

"Oh, I just tripped" I said quickly, referring to my plastered leg.

"No. You look so different. You seem to be functioning as though you are on autopilot or something. Like, you are physically here, but your mind is somewhere… somewhere else." He said finally. I looked down at my hands.

"Maybe…" I muttered, inwardly praying that he would change the topic of discussion. Much to my dismay, though, he continued.

"Bella, please look at me" he moved his finger under my chin and pulled my chin up. I did not try to fight him. I just stared up into his eyes. He moved his other hand up to my hair and pushed it behind my ear. His smooth hand brushed lightly against my pale neck. I hated myself for enjoying his touch as much as I did.

"I cannot stop loving you, Isabella," he said with passion in his voice. "I tried. Honestly, I did. I did not want you to be stuck with me preventing you from doing normal activities forever. You deserve better, Bella, and I do not want you to suffer."

"I… I missed y…" but I never got to finish. He put one of his long fingers on my mouth, making it impossible to speak. He then continued.

"But I could not do it Bella. I am so so sorry. You do not deserve this life, but I am so weak. So selfish. I should have stayed away from you when we went to get you. I should have sit in a different place and avoided you. I should have let Alice take care of you instead. Maybe then you could have fallen for another man. Someone who will let you live your life like you should. But I love you Isabella. Please forgive me." I was not expecting this at all, and tears began to slip down my cheeks.

"Please, Bella. I am so sorry. Please"

I nodded gently. He instantly removed his finger from my mouth, and replaced it with his lips. I had never experienced such a passionate kiss. His hands tangled in my hair and brought me closer to him. I hesitantly moved my hand up to his cheek. I felt everyone watching us, but I did not care. I had been waiting for a kiss like this my entire life. No boundaries, no limitations.

Eventually he lifted his head slightly. Both of us were out of breath. My face was flushed, and my hair was most likely a mess. But I didn't care. I was here in the middle of the air, flying across the Atlantic Ocean, leaning against him. I smiled and Alice began to clap softly.

Eventually, everyone went back to their own business, but Edward never took his eyes, or his hands for that matter, off me. His hands supported my back and we just sat there smiling at each other. I had never been happier in my life.

"I will always love you" I whispered, and with that I fell asleep in his arms.
