Chapter 3:

After everyone realized that I wasn't that special they left Edward and me alone. I was glad that I would finally get to spend some time with my Edward, but I wasn't sure how to start the conversation. I could tell that he was blaming himself and it was going to be hard for me to convince him that it wasn't his fault.

"Edward, please tell me what you are thinking?" I asked hoping I would not regret the answer. I had not yet looked at myself in a mirror so I hoped that I hadn't changed too much that he would no longer love me.

"Bella," he said softly, "I just can't believe that I condemned you to this life. You don't deserve to live this life of darkness. You are an angel and now you have to live the life of the damned. Bella I wish I could turn back time se that I could have kept you safe and not allowed you to be harmed."

If I could have cried, a tear would have streamed down my face. I could not believe that he thought he had damned my life. If anything I felt that I was brought a new life, a complete life because now Edward and I could be together forever.

"Edward, don't say that my life is damned. Don't blame yourself. Edward, you know that I wanted to be changed. I wanted to have eternity with you. A life without you would be hell, but this life with you is my heaven," I spoke softly.

I was Edward looking at me with astonishment. "You are happy with this life? You have no regrets that you can no longer be human? You still love me even though I caused you harm when I promised to protect you? How? Why?" he asked while pinching the bridge of his nose.

"I have no regrets. I can now be with the love of my life forever. The only thing that I am sad about is leaving Charlie alone again, but I would be leaving him shortly for college anyways. I just hope that he can handle this, but Edward I would never ever regret having you by my side for eternity." I told him with the hope that you would stop blaming himself.

I looked at him hoping he would say he loved me. Hoping that he would understand that I would no want it any other way.

"You are amazing, Bella. You have no idea how much I love you. You truly are my angel," he told me with love in his eyes.

"I love you so much Edward and I truly would not want things any other way," I told him.

We looked into each other's eyes and I could finally see in his topaz eyes that he was no longer sad, but filled with happiness. He leaned over and our lips met for the first time since the transformation. He no longer felt cold and my heart no longer went crazy, but he still managed to take my breath away. When our kiss ended I knew that Edward and I would always be together.

"I love you," Edward whispered as we sat in each other's arms.

"I love you, too," I whispered and then I kissed his cheek. As we sat there enjoying each other's presences I thought to myself how could this moment be more perfect?
