So sorry for the long wait. I had a complete computer break down. All my files were lost and my computer was covered in viruses. I still have many problems, so I apologize for any wait that occurs.

I awoke the next morning to a soft melody of a gentle piano solo. I opened my eyes only to quickly shut them again.

I was facing my bedroom window and oddly there was a tremendous amount of sunlight pouring from the small window.

Sunlight in it's simple form was a rare occurrence in Forks. Due to the constant rain and clouds, sunshine was a blessing.

I turned my back to the window and found myself facing Edward. He was propped up on a few white pillows, reading as usual. Today he was reading Shakespeare's, "Romeo and Juliet", this was probably the eightieth time he's read it since I met him. Edward for as long as I've known him has been quite an avid reader. He usually chose works with texts that I didn't understand easily.

As I watched Edward, trying to fully wake up I heard him softly humming then notes of the relaxing piano piece to himself.

I looked past Edward to my nightstand and noticed that my small stereo was in use. Edward often listened to gentle instrumental pieces while I slept. He had told me that when he turns them on, I tended to sleep more calmly.

Edward looked towards me and smiled as he set his book on his lap.

"Good morning." He said in a light voice, smiling my favorite crooked smile.

"Good morning." I returned.

He watched me with adoring eyes as I sat up and stretched, raising my arms above my head.

I heard a slight chuckle and turned to look at him curiously.

"What?" I giggled, suppressing a yawn.

Edward turned back to his book but his tell tale crooked smile kept my wondering.

"What?" I asked, pulling on his arm.

"Nothing." he said, laughter was evident in his voice as he kept his eyes on his page

I rolled my eyes and swung my legs out from under my covers, immediately getting goosebumps from the chilly morning air. I looked up and noticed Edward had opened my window. I promptly shut it and continued to my closet.

Today I would need to wear dress clothes.

A couple months ago Edward and I had began going to church together. It wasn't to help our religion, but Edward said it meant something to him.

Rarely did he discuss his faith or his true feeling about being immortal, but when he did the conversations was greatly moving. He would express his disappointment in himself and what he had become. When he spoke about these things I often wept, feeling his pain and confusion of what had been thrust upon him.

I often imagined what his life would have been like had he not been changed. He had told me that if I had to decide between never being changed and me, he would choose me without even thinking.

As I fumbled blindly through my closet I felt a reassuring hand guide my own. My hand landed on a pale yellow dress that flowed to the middle of my lower leg.

"I love this color on you." Edward whispered into my ear as he nuzzled his face into my neck.

I leaned into his chest and his arms wrapped around my waist. My body tingled at his touch and electricity burst under my skin where he began trailing light kisses along my collarbone.

I closed my eyes and drank in his alluring scent and raised my arm to tangle my fingers in his fine bronze hair.

Edward turned me so we were facing. He began to nibble on the tender skin at the hollow of my throat. Electricity radiated through my body, I felt my breath come in faster and faster as my heart rate increased.

I despised my body's irrational reactions to Edward's touch, but in the moment it felt remarkable.

Edward used his nose to make a lazy trail up the length of my neck. I sighed as he led his nose to my earlobe and began to gently nibble on it. His icy skin felt amazing on my now hot skin.

I was surprised at his restraint of his own desires, soon I was sure he would have to take a break.

I giggled as I spoke, "Edward!"

Edward chuckled and whispered into my ear.

"I must go."

I put my hand to his stone cheek and pulled his face closer.

"Must you?" I asked in a whisper.

Edward pulled my hand into his and kissed my knuckles,

"I'll only be gone for three minutes." He said, parting from me.

"Get dressed and I'll be back before you know it."

With that Edward's blurred form streaked through my open window.

Always one to show off I thought, turning back to my closet.

Charlie must be home since Edward had left through the window.

I slipped the yellow dress off its white hanger and crossed the room to my dresser. I rummaged around in the top drawer to find a pair of underwear and tights.

On my way to the bathroom I glanced at my clock which read 8:43, Edward was due back at forty-five after.

As I passed Charlie's bedroom I heard his thunderous snores through this shut door. I smiled and continued to the bathroom.

Once inside I pulled the pale blue nightgown over my head and looked inside the hamper for my bra. I put my underwear on along with my bra, and then worked on my tights.

I sat on the toilet as I balled the ends up so I could pull them easily on my feet.

My mind drifted to the previous night. When I had entered the bathroom I had expected to find puddles of water on the floor and the shower curtain in shreds. Miraculously the bathroom had been restored to its normal pristine condition and the shower curtain was hanging back up, not even a tear on it.

After getting my tights on, I slipped the pale yellow dress over my head and let it fall around my lean body. I looked in the mirror and found my hair in utter disorder.

I pulled a hair brush out of a drawer and quickly restored my hair to order. I then continued to brush my teeth. As I stared at my reflection in the mirror my mind drifted to the book hidden between my mattresses.

I then thought of the complete disaster last night had become. Normally I wouldn't have even continued with what I did, but there was something in me that yearned for this. My common sense was completely forgotten and this new desire took over all my sense. That was why tonight I was going to try the second tip. The only obstacle was reading about, and then preparing for the second tip.

Edward wouldn't need to hunt for at least four more days, and Charlie would also be home tonight. I slammed the sink draw with my frustration after finishing bushing my teeth. I quickly returned to my bedroom to find Edward as I hoped I would.

He was sitting on my bed with a puzzled expression on. I didn't think much of it and looked at the clothes he had left to change into. He was wearing black dress pants and hoes with a simple white dress shirt that was neatly tucked into his pants. Lastly a simple black tie was hanging from his neck.

I crossed the room and sat next to him,

"What wrong?" I asked him once I noticed his puzzled expression had remained.

He shook his head and turned to look at me,

"Oh, it's nothing. Something just seems a little off today."

I processed this momentarily and my eyes grew wide, Edward was sitting exactly above the spot where the book was hidden.

Edward looked into my eyes, worry on his face.

"What is it?" he asked, taking my hand in his.

I shook my head, trying to find a reasonable reply.

"N-nothing. I just realized I loaned my black flats to Jessica last week." I said.

I hated lying to Edward, but if he found the book I would never be able to face him again.

Edward's face lightened and he smiled at me,

"No worries. I bet Alice has a pair you could borrow."

Sorry to stop here, but my computer is dying and I'm having tons of problems. The next chapter should come out next weekend if all goes according to plan. Please review and tell me what you thenk
