Twilight is the property of Stephenie Meyer. I just like playing with the characters, especially Jasper.
This is a drabble.

Have I found you?
Flightless bird, jealous, weeping or lost you?

"Thanks," Bella said.
"No problem," was the response from the beautiful voice she had ever heard. It was followed by a sweet scent. Do people really smell that good? she wondered.
"Aren't you going to add 'You look kind of handicapped?'" she said.
"Nope."
She turned to see sunglasses. He was wearing sunglasses in the rain and dark.
The guy was tall, and looked lean under a rain coat. Very James Bond. Wait. Did Bond wear sunglasses?
She consumed with a desire to lift those glasses and see what was behind them.
"Sidewalk's slippery, so I'll help you to your car. Where is it?" he asked.
"Don't have one."
Silence.
"I mean, I do, but somebody…well, I don't have one tonight. I'll get it back soon," she said.
"Did he do that to your arm?"
The voice asking the question was so soft. How did he get menace in there too? She didn't need any more menace in her life. Are all men dangerous? Or is it just me, she wondered.
"It was an accident," she said aloud. "I mean, he pushed me, but it wasn't supposed to be that hard."
"And you hit your eye on the way down?"
"No." She didn't add anything else.
"Where's the car now?"
"Does it matter?" she asked, her heart beating faster at the thought of seeing Him again. She never wanted to see Him again. She wouldn't even let herself think of His name. If she did, He might hear her somehow and reappear. Right in front of her.
Bella thought she heard a growl, so she looked around. Was there a dog nearby? This Valentine's Day was crappy enough. She didn't need to be bitten as well.

This is a little Valentine's Day Drabble.
Hope your February is going well. Leave a note and share your thoughts. I'll be back with more very soon.
