Here is the next chapter. Not much I can say! Just enjoy

Previously...

"I'm leaving dad." I ran out the door before he could do anything. I mean who at 21 still has to answer to their father when they go out? I took a deep breath and walked toward the breath taking man that was waiting for me outside of his car.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

I walked slowly to his car; he smiled at me and walked over to open the passenger side door.

"You look beautiful." He told me when we were face to face.

"Thank you. You look nice yourself." I said and I got into his car. I took one last deep breath before he got into the car. I could do this. He got in and we were off.

The car ride wasn't so bad. It was filled with small talk and listening to music. I had forgot about him being my teacher until we arrived at his house. It was a small house but I liked it. It was calm and comfortable.

"I like your house. Nothing like I'd expect." I said looking at paintings on the walls.

He chuckled. "Thanks. My sister decorated it. Usually it's a lot messier but I figured I'd clean it for you."

I smiled lightly. "Thanks."

He led me into the kitchen where everything was set up. It smelt amazing; it all looked amazing. He had candles on the table and everything.

"The chicken isn't quite done, I still got to do a few things. If you don't mind waiting." He said while pulling out a chair for me to sit.

I shook my head and sat and waited patiently just being mesmerized by his amazing kitchen. I watched him cook and my heart started beating faster.

"It smells amazing." I said to break the silence.

"Thanks. My mom was a chef so she started me young. She always told me one of the greatest turn ons for women was a guy who could cook, so I let her teach me."

"Your mom was right." He turned around smiling and came over and gave me a plate of what looked like heaven on a plate. He got himself a plate and sat across from me.

"It looks delicious."

"Thanks. I hope you like it." He smiled nervously. I smiled back and looked back down at the plate. I looked at him for one last glance and I caught him take a deep breath, like I did in his car. I wonder what he is nervous about. I took a bite of my food and it tasted 10 times better than it looked or smelled.

"Oh wow. This is amazing."

"I'm glad you like it." He smiled and we continued with our dinner making small talk and telling stories. He took our plates after we were done and we went outside with our glasses of wine and sat out on his deck.

"Mr.. err I mean Robert." I stopped. I didn't know what to call him! I mean all night he hasn't felt like my teacher but he is. Tonight he wasn't my teacher but I have never called him anything else but that.

He laughed. "Call me Robert anytime we aren't in class."

I smiled in relief. "Robert, I really want to thank you for tonight. It was good to get away from my life for a night. It was a great dinner."

He smiled a genuine smiled. "Thank you for agreeing to it. I didn't know if you would. Me being your teacher and all." He looked away from me and looked back into the woods behind his house.

It was quite for a moment and before I could stop myself I asked something I knew I didn't want to. "Why me? Why did you ask me of all people? I mean you are attractive," I didn't want to use beautiful, I thought he'd find that weird. "You are smart, nice, and funny. I'm just plain and there really isn't anything special when it comes to me. Out of all the girls in the world you picked me. I'm thankful but I just don't get it." I looked away from him; embarrassed I just said that all to him.

He didn't respond at first but I knew he was looking at me. I could feel it. I mentally started beating myself for doing that. I still didn't look at him; I waited for him to respond.

"Bella will you look at me please?" I reluctantly turned to him and our eyes met.

"You don't see yourself like most guys do. You are beautiful, you are nice, your are funny, and trust me you are smart. I don't know exactly what it is with you but I'm attracted to you. I have been for awhile. Last week I sat up all night debating whether I should ask you out and I kept telling myself I couldn't. And I wasn't planning on it but once I saw you today I knew I had to. Reading your papers and hearing you in class, you are so different from other girls, in a good way. So to answer your question, I don't know why but what I do know is that I just had a great time with you and I don't regret asking you." He kept my gaze the whole time he made his speech. I looked away after he was done not knowing what to say. It was the most beautiful thing anyone had ever said to me. I started falling for him at that very moment.

"You've left me speechless Robert. That was the nicest thing anyone has ever said to me. I don't believe you but I do know that this has been one of the best nights of my life and I don't want it to end." I turned to him and smiled.

"It doesn't have to."

"Well eventually the sun will come up and you will have to go to work and I will have to go back to my life."

"How about you stay here for the night. I want to know everything about you. You fascinate me Bella Swan."

I didn't know what to do. This was our 1st date and I liked him but I don't know. I would love to just spend the night with him but there were things in my life I didn't want him to know about. I just sat there thinking.

"Bella? Please. I know this is fast but I can't help it." He was begging me now. I looked at him and his eyes were pleading with mine. And at that moment I did something I knew I shouldn't.

"Ok, I will. You are a hard man to deny. You and those eyes are dangerous for me."

He smiled a big smile. "Thank you," was all he spit out.

We took our empty glasses and went inside. We sat on his coach and asked each other anything that came to our mind. Time passed so fast. He brought down my walls, which is something that not many people can do. I felt so comfortable around him. I felt like he would protect me. It was so easy to be around him. It felt good. We talked for hours on end. It was like we were the only ones who existed in the world. He was holding me by the end of the night and I loved it. It was the one place I felt safe.

"I could do this every night you know?" He said as we both started getting tired. I could to but I don't think my father would like if I was snuggling with my teacher while he was fighting vampires.

"If only things were that easy." I said thinking about how my life would have to go back to normal tomorrow when we had to take down a few vampires that have been invading Forks long enough.

"Why aren't they?" He asked disappointed.

I didn't know how to explain it. He couldn't know about it either. It wasn't safe for him to know. And anyways he wouldn't believe me anyways. Who would believe anyone who said they hunted vampires. "There are some things in my life that aren't so simple." That was as good as I could explain it.

"So make it simple for me." He sounded demanding.

"I can't Robert. It's not that easy."

"Yes it is. You can tell me anything." He was mad.

I sat up so he wasn't holding me anymore. "Listen it's not safe for you to know. I'm protecting you."

"I don't need protection Bella. I protect you." That pissed me off. No one protects me. I could protect myself. I stood up and grabbed my purse and started walking to the door. He stopped me.

"Don't leave Bella."

"No Robert I think that's what is best for now."

"Just tell me."

I snapped. "I can't! God Robert, this was our first date. I can't tell you everything. There are things in my life that aren't safe and they aren't simple!"

"If they aren't safe then you shouldn't be apart of it." He still had a hold of my wrist. I yanked away from his hold.

"I can take care of myself. Maybe one day I can tell you but right now I can't!"

"WHY!" He screamed.

I put my hands on his face to calm him down. "If I tell you, it can put you in danger and the rest of my friends. Like I said it isn't simple. But if you give me time I will tell you. Okay?"

He went back to breathing regularly and just nodded. I dropped my hands.

"I'm going to go now. Thank you for tonight and I will talk to you later." I kissed his cheek and walked out the door. When I walked out I realized I didn't have my car. I turned around.

"I'll drive you." He said going to get his keys.

"No. I'll walk."

"It's late, that is way too dangerous."

I smiled. "I've done worse. Trust me I can handle myself. I promise I'll make it."

"Fine. Call me when you get home though." He looked uncomfortable agreeing to it. I smiled and started making my way home.

Preview:

As i walked I could feel someone watching me. I checked all around me to make sure nothing was there. I saw nothing but I could still feel someone watching me. I continued walking but I was more alert now. Then i heard something to the left of me. I jerked my head towards the trees and before I knew it something was attacking me. I was pinned on my back and i looked up at the thing on me and right away i knew it was a vampire.
