Chapter 2, The Meadow.

EPOV

'sure, i'll see you tomorrow.'

'can't wait.' she said.

'neither can i.' i winked at bella before getting in my volvo.

two weeks later.

i went upstairs and i found alice digging through her closet. i swear one day she'll drown in all those clothes.

'alice!...you know what, i'm not gonna bother.' i mumbled the end.

i walked to my room and put debussy on before lying down on my sofa. sometimes i wish vampires could sleep, maybe then i could dream and escape this dull life. i love my family dearly but sometimes i just need to get away.

i decided to just...think...lye down and think about everything and nothing. first i thought about school...which lead to classes...which lead to biology...which lead to bella. oh, how i miss her. hmm, why is that. i don't know why but i feel a kind of pull towards her. like she's the sun and i'm the earth. mindlessly following the same path of gravity over and over and not caring because i get to be near her. but i don't want to be earth, i want to be mercury, as close as i can get.

i kept thinking like this for a countless amount of time and soon enough, i had to get ready for school. i was so glad i could leave for collage in a matter of months and like i wanted, get away from it all...all...does that include bella...if i break away from my coarse of gravity i am sure to fly around until i crash into something bigger and abliterate.

i sighed.

'edward...are you ready to go?' alice asked.

'yeah, come on.' i ran to the car, got in and waited for the others. alice and jasper hopped in the back, and i left.

hmm, edwards quiet today... alice thought.

'just setting a good example for you, sister dear. she pouted as jasper chuckled.

she said you were quiet right? i nodded.

soon we arrived at school and sat down in the cafateria. like most of the time, we were the first to arrive, mainly because we had nothing better to do. after a while of sitting and talking, bella came skipping up to us and sat down quickly.

'morning bella.' jasper said.

'a very good morning.' she replied.

'Why's that?' i asked.

'i don't know yet...i just have a good feeling about today. and most of the time, when i have a good feeling, something totally awesome happens to me, or someone close to me.'

'Hey, i'm the future pradicter here, so back off.' alice joked. Bella laughed.

'i get feelings not visions.'

And with that we went to class....Lunch came and nothing extraordinary had happened.

'The day isn't over yet..' she said...

at the end of lunch i had only one class until biology...i hate how our schedules are mixed around. i liked having biology first, to sooner see bella. when maths finaly came to an end i was walking to class when i heard the mind of our teacher, mr banner.. ah blood typing, nothing like a room full of dripping red fingers, to make a teacher happy...not. hmm, so we were blood typing today. i saw bella walking through the cafateria and went up to her.

'guess what' i said.

'umm..we'll be late for class?'

'nope...we're not going.' she looked confused.'they're blood typing today.' i explained.

she grinned and linked arms with me. what're we doing?,she asked and i too was grinning.

'You'll see.' i lead her out of school grounds and to the edge of the forest.'hmm.' i started.

'what is it?' bella asked.

'well...i run much faster than any other vampires i know, and i'll probably leave you behind...you could get lost...i think, it's in your best intrest to let me carry you.' i said in mock concern. she smiled slyly.

'hmm...well, i guess you're right. but can i choose the way you carry me?'

'of coarse.'

'okay then...turn around.' i did. suddenly she jumpped on my back, wrapping her arms and legs around me.

'run, run like the wind.' she giggled and i felt her tuck her head under her arm, nestling into my back. i smirked.

'whatever you say.' and with that, i took off full speed. dodging trees, jumping over rivers and just enjoying the thrill of it all. bella holding me, the wind in my hair and most of all, somehow knowing she was just as happy. after a while the trees began to thin and i slowed to a stop. i swung her around so she was in front of me then put her down. she was smiling and her eyes held much excitment. i looked into them seriously.

'no peaking.' she crossed her heart and raised her hand.

'scouts honer.' she said just as serious. i chuckled and took her hand leading her through the remainder of the forest. when we were through i said...

'welcome to my meadow.' she opened her eyes and gasped. she walked to the middle of the circular clearing and sat down, looking at the flowers, the grass and basking in it's simplicity and over all beauty.

'i come here whenever i need alone time. i've never told anyone about it before.' i said nervously, sitting beside her.

'it's amazing, truly beautiful.' she looked into my eyes.'thank you, edward. you've been nothing but kind to me ever since i got here.' i smiled and took her hand.

'bella...i knew you were going to play an important role in my life ever since that first day when we met...how could i be anything but kind to you.'she sighed happily. we sat in comfortable silence for god knows how long. just enjoying eachothers company.

I soon realised i had to take ali and jas home from school, we would have to leave soon. bella seemed to notice this also beacuse she sighed.

'we should get going.' i stated.

'i know...but i don't want to leave.' i looked at her onyx eyes and had an idea.

'bella would you like to go hunting with me?' i stood and offered her my hand.

she grinned and took it. i pulled her up and we ran back into the forest. i watched as bella closed her eyes and took a deep breath through her nose, searching. as she let it out she opened her eyes and smiled slyly. she took off and i followed, intrigued. she climbed a tree and on one of the branches was a mountain lion.

'and the lioness hunts the lion, that's an interesting twist.' she was right. the way she held her body when she hunted and pounced at her pray, pushing it to the ground,was very similar to that of a cat. and when the soon to be corpse growled and attempted to scratch her she hissed, before expertly putting her teeth to the lions neck and draining it dry. she brushed off her outfit and looked at me expectantly.

but what could i say, wow bella, that was such a turn on. or perhaps, i should just kiss her right now....ugh, shut up. what is with me lately. i eventually decided on,

'Your amazing...i swear catwoman would be jealous.' i said dazily, but also pained, i longed to be closer to bella, i needed it.

'Are you okay?' she asked, i sighed.

'Do you really not know what you do to me, bella?' first she looked confused, then shocked, and then smug.

'nope...so elaborate, edward dear. what exactly is it, that i do to you?' i smirked then walked slowly toward her. i wrapped one arm around her waist and quickly pulled her to my chest, her breath caught. i leaned in and wispered in her ear,

'Isabella Swan, you know exactly, what you do to me.' then i let go and ran, as fast as possible, back to school.

i waited in the car until jasper and alice got in.

'no fair...i wish we would do blood typing...movies are sooo boring.' alice said.

'eh, beats doing work we've already done...dosens of times.' jasper replied.

i drove home thinking of bella, as always......

Ah, let the sexual tension begin. i know i went from the first day to two weeks later in one chaper, but i couldn't help myself. i can't type out every day up until they can logically like eachother. so i skipped it all. the real story starts in chapter 3.
