Chapter 5: Sanctuary.
--Edward's Point of View--
I learned that her name was Bella Swan.
I've also heard that she's done many concertos when she was young. I was right after all, she was a prodigy. I remember her going to my practice room one quiet afternoon to watch the breathtaking sunset with me. I was surprised to see her there but nevertheless, I was glad to share that sunset with someone.
I thought of her. She was simply amazing. Her talent was remarkable. It was unbelievable. Come to think of it, I never got to talk with her. We just shared our music. It was such a wonderful feeling.
I stopped by her practice room today. She was playing Pachelbel's Canon. Oh how I loved that piece. When I went inside she simply smiled and continued to play. I started accompanying her then. It was weird though, two strangers performing a duet. Without an idea of each one's identity (though I have somewhat researched about her) and just there, sharing our music together.
Afterwards, I asked her to go with me somewhere. She agreed and together we went to my sanctuary. I never showed anyone my sanctuary. But somehow, she was an exception. It was the meadow where I've been spending most of my time. She didn't say anything. She looked awed by it. There, was the sun setting beautifully. The view here was better than in the practice room.
"Thank you for bringing me here." She said.
I simply smiled and lay down on the grass, absorbing the moment. As I closed my eyes, I inhaled and exhaled the scent of nature. I opened my eyes. She was right there beside me, laying down, closing her eyes. I've never been this close to her. She was beautiful. Her features were to die for. She looked like a goddess. Suddenly I felt myself wanting to kiss her perfect pink lips. They looked so sweet and kissable. But then I shrugged it off. What was I doing? I ran away, leaving her alone in the meadow.
