So, I've, actually, had this idea in my head for a while now, and it has been saved on my computer for a few months. I, finally, decided to upload it. I have the first few chapters written already.
Summary: What if when Edward escaped to Alaska, after that 1 havoc biology class, he decided to give Tanya a chance? What will happen when he comes back and gets to know Bella? Will Edward and Bella's love win all?
**Side note: Yes, Edward and his family are vampires**
Disclaimer: I, sadly, do not own Twilight. :(

Chapter 1
Edward POV
I lay on my back in the snow, slowly getting covered, in the comfort of the forest in Denali.
"You did the right thing by leaving, Edward," I told myself over and over again. "You're not going to kill the girl. She'll be able to live!"
If it was the right thing to do, then why do I feel so awful, so incomplete?
I sighed. I was also missing my family very much. I'd be going back soon, that much I knew.
I could hear the thoughts of Tanya, a family friend, coming. The poor thing! It just tears me apart that he's so unhappy. Maybe I can help him with that.
I sighed. Why couldn't she just understand that I wanted to be alone?
"Edward?" Tanya asked.
I made no move to answer her.
"Listen, Edward. I'm tired of you being so upset like this. It is just one girl. Seriously, get over it."
"Thanks," I said sarcastically.
"No problem. Now let's get something straight. I'm here for you right now. Are you here for me?"
I sighed again. Tanya wanted us to be more than friends, she always has. I've always pulled back. I was not the one for her, nor she for me. It was really tiring.
"As a friend," I replied.
"Edward, please! Listen to me: we should be together. Why can't you see it? We're both vampires! I will never put you through anything like what that human put you through. It's like we are meant for each other. I realize it, it's time you do."
Tanya was really nice. I wish things didn't have to be awkward between us. She was an amazing friend to have, I've just never thought of her as anything else. I wasn't being very fair to her, though. If this was what she wanted, how could I deny her it? I was raised to put others before myself.
I looked up at her and smiled. "Okay. We can try and see where this goes."
Her face lit up. I knew I had just made her extremely happy. I reached my hand out for hers and we made our way back to the cabin.
Who knew, maybe in time, I really would have feelings for her that were more than as just a friend. There was only one way to find out.
Bella POV
I held my breath as I entered the cafeteria. I quickly looked over at the Cullen table to see if he was there. I let my breath out slowly. Good, he was still gone. I wasn't sure what his problem was, but it was definitely creepy. Yet so enthralling!
"Bella! Bella! Over here!" I heard Mike call out to me. I had to stop from rolling my eyes. He was nice, but I didn't think of him as anything more than a friend. He, on the other hand, had different ideas…
"Hey Mike!" I said, with a forced smile on my face. He, loyally, took the seat by my side.
"So, Bella, I was thinking that we should go see this movie. I've really wanted to go see it and it's just come out, and I think it'd be perfect if you would join me. It's the type of thing you'd like."
"Mike," I hesitated. This was really awkward. "I'm sure it'd be a lot of fun, but I don't really do movies."
"Oh. Well, I'm sure you'd like this one. Please? Can you make it this Friday?"
"I don't know Mike," I was willing to use any excuse now. "I'll have to check my plans."
"Great. Get back to me tomorrow. Or you could call me tonight. Or I could call you!"
"Umm, I'll just tell you tomorrow," I said, a little creeped out. This was almost worse than Edward.
"Are you sure?"
"Positive."
Just then, I heard an extremely loud gasp, maybe it was a scream; it was kind of hard to tell. I looked up to see who it was and made eye contact with Alice Cullen, Edward's sister. She looked a little worried. But why was she looking at me? She quickly turned to the other Cullens.
I wonder what all that was about, I thought.
"So, Bella," Mike started. I could honestly tell you that I could not repeat a word he said to me. It was so boring; he lost my attention easily. My thoughts kept drifting back to Alice. What was her gasp/scream for? And why was she looking at me like she was upset? Not with me, though, right?
There was no way to tell. I guess I'd just have to wait and see if it would enter the gossip circle. I doubted it. No one cared about anything that happened with the Cullens.
Well, I guess I'd just have to wait and see if whatever it was affected me, and guessing by our eye contact and the look on her face, I was sure it did.
Alice POV
This was just great. Now everything was all messed up. How could Edward do that? Would I ever get to be Bella's friend now? I glanced up at Bella again. She looked detached. She definitely knew something was up.
She was definitely thinking hard about it, too! That annoying Mike kid was talking to her, but it looked like she didn't hear a word he said.
What's going to happen now? Seriously, boys were incredibly stupid. Edward could not have made a worse decision.
How would this affect Bella now, though? I looked into her future. Oh No!!!!!

So, I'm still going to continue Eloquently Enamored. It's almost done, though. I think it has one more chapter left. I might write a sequel; I have a layout made for one.
So I know this is really different from other things that I've written! Please review and tell me what you think! Do you think I should keep writing it?
Thank you so much!!!
