Bella's POV
I couldn't take it in...The vampire I fell in love with when I was human was now a human when I was a vampire!!!!! What the hell happened to the world!!! I realised what Edward had meant when he said being human made us any less beautiful. Edward was still dazzling as a human. His emerald eyes pierced into my now gold ones. Edward noticed me staring and smiled. I smiled back and his eyes glazed over. I knew what this meant now...he was having a flash back. Edward face became a mask of pure love. He suddenly said some words that made my insides melt to mush.
"And so the lion fell in love with the lamb" he paused for a second then grinned "What a sick masochistic lion"
I couldn't stop myself from smiling. Edward's eyes focused and he looked at me frowning. I smiled back. He then spoke to me.
"Are you really Bella? Because you look so different from the girl I just saw"
"Yes, I'm Bella" Edward's eyes narrowed.
"Prove it" I smirked. Did he really think I wasn't Bella? I pursed my lips as if to think hard. Edward smiled, clearly proud of himself. I cleared my throat.
"What a stupid lamb" Edwards eyes narrowed again.
"That's not enough to make me believe you" I glared at him and he shrunk back in his bed. I walked over and sat on the bed, taking his hand.
"Edward, I'm going to say something that will bring back a scary memory ok?" Edward nodded his head cautiously. I tried my best to imitate the voice perfectly "My name is Laurent, and this is Victoria and James" I smiled, quite proud of myself. I had said it perfectly. Edward's eyes glazed over again and he growled, not exactly a vampire growl but not quite human either. I felt someone grab my hand. I turned round to find Jasper, holding my hand firmly staring worriedly at Edward. I held Jasper's hand tighter. I turned to face Carlisle, still holding Jazz's hand and asked
"Will Edward be alright? I mean, will he get his memory back soon?" Carlisle smiled.
"Yes, he'll get it back but we need to keep bringing memories back. I believe he remembers you because his love for you was so strong that not even time or distance could weaken it" I fought against the tears that were coming. I smiled weakly as Jasper squeezed my hand.
"What the hell was all that about the lion and lamb thing? Is he mental?" I chuckled at Emmett.
"No, its just something we spoke about once. Because he was so strong and dangerous he was the lion and because I was so weak and vulnerable I was the lamb. So the lion fell in love with the lamb" Emmett grinned.
"That is so smart who he thought of that!!" I laughed and shook my head. Edwards shout regained my attention.
"No, no! Bella, don't you dare leave me! Please don't. Bella listen to me! You stay with me!" I knew exactly where he was. He was with James in the ballet studio "I don't know if I'll be able to stop" he paused and Edwards face turned agonised clashed with hopeful "I'm going to make it go away Bella" Edwards face turned pleased. His eyes focused again and he stared up at me, smiling. "Bella?" I smiled and nodded "Who changed you? And why am I human?" I frowned. It seemed Edward had remembered just about everything.
"Victoria changed me and I honestly don't know why you're human. There was a fire and you must have gotten out or something" Edward smiled and nodded.
"I remember. You attacked the headmaster didn't you?" I grimaced and nodded. He turned to face Carlisle, Jasper and Emmett. "Well Emmett, you'll be able to beat me at fights now" Emmett laughed as did Jasper. He then turned to face me.
"I think I know why I'm human"
"Why?" Edward blushed. It was a beautiful colour.
"I did die. I was given a second chance, because I loved you so much" Tears sprang to my eyes.
"I want to be human with you" Edward smiled and placed his warm hand on my cheek. I closed my eyes at the warmth. I felt Edward lean in to whisper.
"You can be" I felt my eyes flash open. I could be human with him? "You are human" Ok now I was confused. "You have a heart" The tears poured down my face.
"But you'll die" Edward smiled and nodded.
"Everyone does" I started shaking. I couldn't let him die. But he wanted to be human. Edward frowned. "Will you love me when I'm old?" I placed my lips to his as gently as I could. When I pulled away I whispered.
"I will always love you" Edward smiled and pressed his lips against mine again.
