"I would like you to come and see me next Sunday, I don't see any damage but some time's its possible that it may take a while for any symptoms of exposure to show. So when you come on Sunday we will make another appointment."

I nodded and grabbed my coat.

"Thank you see you then."

"Yes. Be more careful Cory, you wouldn't want something to happen to you."

"Ah but if it doesn't happen now something will just happen later." I replied walking out of the office.

"Cory how did it g-"

Bella's eyes traveled behind me to the doctor that had been checking me out. Her jaw dropped to the floor.

"That's the Cullen's dad." I replied as I turned to pull her towards the exit of the hospital

"He's your- He's so- wow…" she stumbled. I let out a chuckle

"You know what they say, 'An apple a day keep's the doctor away, but if the doctors cute, screw the fruit.'" Bella stared at me wide eye I know she was thinking how is it possible that someone as young as Carslie could have so many children.

BPOV

It was Monday morning. Dad, told Cory to stay at home today which she was more then happy to do. I reached the parking lot. The day was cloudy and the parking lot wasn't full. I got out of the truck slowly, since yesterday; my mind has been filled with one thing and one thing only, 'Dustin Ryder'.

All the way to the hospital and at home, Cory had insisted that this Dustin Ryder got on the ride with her. I didn't know what to believe, sure there was a unexplained hoodie, but no one was there with her, it would have been impossible for him to escape the closed compartment. Charlie just told me that she was probably under a lot of stress, and she created an imaginary person to help her through; and a person probably left the hoodie on the ride before her.

I was snapped out of my trance by a very loud pop, like something exploded. I looked up and my eyes met with Edward's. He was standing by the door to the school, his face filled with nothing but horror. Then I heard it. The loud squealing of skidding tires. I turned my head away from Edward to see what the sound was. A large van was careening out of control towards the door of my truck; right where I was standing. Everything went slow. I watched the van skid, Tyler jerking the wheel a hard as he could to get it to stop, or skid in a different direction. I looked back to where Edward was standing. Horror was still plastered on his beautiful features. I smiled lightly as I closed my eyes waiting for death to befall.

Instead something else hit me. I opened my eyes to see Edward holding me in an iron embrace. We fell backwards with him on top of my. I felt a crack as my head hit the pavement. I could see the underside of the van. Edward's one arm was extended holding the van up as he pushed it to the side.

I could hear the horrified screams of students.

"Call an ambulance!" Edward shouted, his breath fanning over my face.

"Bella? Bella answer me!" his voice was so panicked it was heart breaking. I wanted to tell him I was fine, but when I opened my mouth to speak, something else came out.

"You were over there."

"What? Bella I was beside you the whole time."

"No, I saw you! you were by the doors." His eyes hardened and his jaw set

"Bella I was beside you the whole time."

"No you were over there, and then you were here and- and the van, y-you lifted it. You were lifting it!"

"Bella your seeing things, you must have hit your head pretty hard."

"I know what I saw!" I was starting to get angry now. I knew what I saw. I saw it before my head hit the ground. I could here sirens in the background but I wasn't paying attention. I was staring back into Edwards's eyes trying to stay as stubborn as possible.

"Bella please, don't say anything. I will explain to you later but just be quiet." I nodded. So he was agreeing that something happened. Good.

I felt my cheeks flush as I realized Edward was still on top of me. He noticed and he shifted himself so I was lying against him. Soon enough I was being placed on a stretcher and into the back of an ambulance.

"Well, I don't see anything wrong with the cats scan but you might have a mild concussion, so if you start to have a fever, nausea, dizziness, or vision problems, come back immediately. You can take these for pain."

"Thank you Dr. Cullen." I said at I held an ice back to the back of my throbbing head. Edward was in the corner leaning casually against the wall.

"Bella?" I looked to the door. Attached to a stretcher was Tyler. His arm was in a sling, he had cuts and scrapes allover and a bandage around his head.

"Hey Tyler."

"Oh my God Bella I am so sorry I will make this up to you I promise I'm s-"

"Tyler I'm fine really, Lucky for me Edward was beside me and quick enough to pull me out of the way. I'm really okay."

I saw Dr. Cullen stiffen in the corner. He shot a look at Edward and Edward said something quietly back. His lips moving too fast for me to hear what they were saying.

I thanked Dr. Cullen as I followed Edward out of the room. When we got around the corner I stopped Edward.

"I want to know why I'm lying for you. I think it's time you told me what happened now."

"I told you. I was standing beside you and pulled you out of the way before you could get hit."

"NO! I know what I saw Edward! You were nowhere near me. You were by the school and then you were lifting that van off of us!" I said sternly but quietly as to not attract any attention.

"You think I lifted a van off you?" his tone questioned my sanity. I took in a deep breath.

"I know you did."

"BELLA!"

"Dad, Cory?" Cory pulled me into a huge hug.

"Oh my God, are you all right? I should have been there I could have-"

"I'm fine. Edward pulled me from harms way." I said flatly shooting him a look.

"Thank you!" said Charlie grabbing Edward's hand and shaking it generously.

"It's no problem, I just happened to be at the right place at the right time."

Dad and Cory thanked him again before tugging me off towards the car. I looked back and mouthed 'I'll figure it out.' to him. A smile played itself on his lips as he turned to head towards Dr. Cullen's office.

I woke up in the morning from a massive headache. I had a dream, and this time I remembered it.

My legs were carrying me through the forest. I could feel rocks and logs disrupting my speed, but I pressed on still. I could feel branches whip at my face and I could smell the rusty, coppery, salty blood dripping down my cheek. My vision was going woozy and I started to stumble. I hit a clearing. Leaves were rustling around me as I spun at each sound. I tripped over my feet and landed in the grass. I could feel my stomach lurching as I fought back the urge to vomit. A growl caught my attention. I looked up to see Edward's face coming towards min; his eyes were dark. He grabbed hold of my arm. I struggled under his grip, but it was inhumanly strong. He smiled a toothy smile, what caught my attention was not how dazzling his smile was, but how menacing it looked, and that his two eye teeth were longer and sharper then the rest.

"Edward?" I asked keeping my voice steady.

I was still out of it when we arrived at school. The day went quickly and next thing I could recall was that I was walking towards the cafeteria with Cory. I faintly remembered being bombarded with questions, and I just replied that Edward was the savior who happened to be right there when I needed saving.

"Thank you."

"Huh?" I looked at my sister who had a childish grin on her face.

"Well thanks to your little, incident, almost everyone had forgotten about mine." She teased playfully. I nudged her with my arm and muttered 'your welcome' before we were intercepted.

"Do you mind if I borrow Bella for lunch?" I looked up to see Edward staring down at my sister. I unconsciously held my breath. His question amazed me. This Greek God of Adonis, wanted to borrow me; me of all plain people. I shook my head to knock some sense back into me. This would be a perfect time for me to ask him questions.

Edward already had a tray for me as he led me to a table in the far corner. I could here the whispers of the students, and I could feel their eyes burning into my back.

We sat at the table and he sat across from me; pushing the tray with pizza forward. I took it graciously and took a bite.

"So does this mean your ready to tell me what happened."

"I already did."

"Yes but what you said was a lie." His brow furrowed and his lips set into a hard line. "How bout if I guess, will you tell me?"

"You have theories?" his frown melted away to a look of curiosity.

"A few. None that I have really, decided upon."

"Are they creative?"

"Some. But I think I need to think of more." He nodded slightly

"What do you have so far?"

"An X Men?" I asked. Edward burst out laughing. I could feel the blush coming again

"That's not very creative."

"I'll work on that.

CPOV

Bella and I were making chicken cacciatore when the phone rang.

"Hello? Oh hey Jess. Yea hold on. Hey Bella, Jess, Angela, and Lauren are going shopping for there dresses tonight they want to know if you want to tag along."

"Uh, I guess sure."

"Bella say's sure. Hey do you think you guys can give me a ride there and back? Great thanks see you guys then."

"Why are you coming?" Bella turned on the faucet and eyes me suspiciously.

"I want to play." I said simply. Bella nodded and ordered me to grab plates.

"Bells? Cory?"

"In the kitchen!"

Charlie walked in and sat in his chair. Bella scooped a big portion onto his plate and handed it to me to se on the table.

"Thanks girls this looks delicious."

We ate in silence for a while when Bella broke it.

"Dad, Jess wants me Cory, Lauren, and Angela to go dress shopping tonight I know it's a school night but please?"

"I thought you and your sister weren't going to the dance."

"We aren't, they just want us to tag along, were their friends."

I let out a breath I had been holding. I gave Bella a look clearly saying thank you. If Charlie knew that I wanted to go off by myself to play he wouldn't let me go.

"We'll I suppose, don't be gone too long though."

"Thanks dad!" Bella kissed the top of his head and he smiled at me. I smiled back.

We went up stairs to get changed. Bella went on the computer as I put my guitar in its case and went out the window. Carefully I lowered my self onto the tree and climbed down leaving my guitar at the side of the house. Just as I climbed up and back through the window I heard a honking from the front of the house.

BPOV

We had dropped Cory off in Town Square at Port Angles a little over two hours ago. It was now about 10:30. The whole shopping tip my mind was else where thinking about the dream and what I searched on the computer.

I remembered what Jacob said about the 'Cold One's' and I decided to look it up. I must have searched through a few sites till I came to one that startled me.

"Cold One's- AKA Vampires. Description: unnatural beauty. Red eye's that may be black. Ice cold skin. Survive off blood. Pale skin. Have super speed, strength, and grace."

"Let's stop at that café for a while before we leave." suggested Angela. The café.

"I'll meet you their guy's, I'm going to go find Cory."

"Okay."

I was pretty sure I knew how to get to get to Town Square, but I got lost. I walked down a street when I heard a guitar. I looked down the long alley, it looked like it was five blocks long, but I could see Cory's guitar case with her candle lit on top. I walked through the alley after her. Suddenly she stopped playing. I saw her stand up quickly put her guitar in her case and she took off forward sprinting.

"Cory!" I shouted as I started to run my self when suddenly three men stood in front of me.

"Well look at what we have here. Looks like were going to have some fun tonight boys!" they laughed and that's when the stench of alcohol on their breath hit me like a train. I took a step back. That was a mistake.

"What, you're going to run? Go ahead run. See how far you get!" one of the men lunged at me as I turned to run. Though he was drunk and staggering, he was still fast. He leapt forward and managed to get a fistful of my hair. I screamed as he yanked me back. I felt a hand clamp over my mouth and stale foggy breath lingered by my ear

"Just be good, and we promise we'll make it a quickie." The man's three friends started laughing. I opened my mouth slightly so I could get a chunk of his flesh in my mouth. I bit down hard until I smelt the nauseating scent of blood. Me knees wobbled as the man screamed. Before my knees collapsed causing me to fall to the ground I was being held up by one of his friends. The third guy slapped me across the face muttering something about his friend.

"If you don't want to die I suggest you let her go this instant." Some one growled from the darkness of the ally. I looked up to see a figure walking catlike towards us. When the streetlight danced of the persons face I gasped.

"Edward." I breathed. He wasn't paying attention to me. His eyes were fixated on the monsters that picked me as their plaything. I suddenly felt afraid for them. His eyes were unnaturally dark as night as he stalked towards us, like he was stalking his prey. I felt the hold tighten around my neck. I gasped for air.

"Don't come any closer of she'll get it!" shouted the man who was holding me. I clawed at the hand around my neck. I could dark closing in on myself as I tried to breathe.

Next thing that happened was I was on the ground. The three men took of down the alley limping along the way.

Edward picked me up easily in his arms and took me to his car, placing me in the passenger seat.

He throttled the gas driving aimlessly through the streets of Port Angles, at a dangerously quick speed. The white of his knuckles were showing through his already white skin as he gripped the steering wheel.

"Edwards I-"

"Talk Bella, I need to calm down. Talk to me."

"Uh- w-well, I came up with some ideas, on what you might be."

"Okay," he started he was still tense.

"Well I was thinking, if you indeed get form point a to point b in a matter of seconds, and the super strength you must have gotten it from somewhere." Edward loosened his grip slightly and nodded so I continued.

"No spiders?"

"Nope."

"And no radioactivity?"

"None."

"…"

"Kryptonite doesn't bother me either."

He smiled and relaxed quite a lot. I hit him playfully on the arm when I noticed. His arm was extremely solid, and… cold.

He pulled to a stop by the dock. We got out and sat on it our feet dangling off the edge.

"Is that it? I thought you would be more creative then that."

"I got one more, I'm just not sure if…"

"if what?" I paused for a second before turning towards him.

"Do you promise you wont laugh if it's utterly ridiculous assumption, and promise to tell me if I'm right on the marker." He looked pained slightly we sat in silence for a moment before Edward spoke.

"What if I'm not the good guy, what if I'm one of the worst out there, the one that puts you in the most danger? What if I'm not the superhero and instead I'm the monster." his eyes looked like they were pleading to me. I thought carefully about my reply.

"I don't believe you could be the bad guy. You saved me back there, you didn't even kill them for what they were trying to do, you just protected me."

"If you weren't with me now I would be killing them with my own two hands." I stared at him blankly. His face was now twisted with anger.

"Edward, I'm fine they didn't hurt me."

"But you didn't hear what they were planning on doing to you." He dropped his head as his whole body tensed again. I reached out and cupped his cool chin in my hand and tilted his head up so that he could look me in the eyes. His orbs were dark, not black, but farthest from the beautiful topaz I had grown accustom too.

"But they didn't do anything, you saved me that alone makes you anything but a monster."

He took a breath as his eyes lightened and his body loosened.

"Promise to tell me if I'm right?" I asked. He froze for a second but then nodded his head.

"Well um, I was, uh… Are you a- a Vampire?" I waited for a burst of laughter or a raised eyebrow implying that I was crazy, but the look I got was pure shock.

"I'm right?" Edward stood silently shoving his hands into his pockets.

"Come on its getting late, you should be getting home."

"You promised! Am I right?"

He looked at me with sad eyes and then shook his head yes in defeat. He looked at me wincing slightly like he was waiting for me to scream and runaway in horror.

"EEKKK!" I squealed with a smile on my face "You are!" I jumped up and down in triumph. After Edward's shock wore off he dragged me back to his car. As we drove I bombarded him with questions.

"Do you melt in the sun? Do you sleep in a coffin, should I wear a turtle neck?" I asked clutching my throat. Edward laughed pried my hand off of my neck.

"No I don't melt in the sun. No I don't sleep at all, and no I wont eat you. The smell of your blood is however very appealing, but you don't have to worry about that, I wont ever hurt you."

"I know." I smiled "What does happen in the sun? And why aren't your eye's red?"

"Have you been reading up on our kind?"

"A little, I mean I heard of a myth down in La Push about the Cullen family so I decided to check it out."

"Well, my eyes aren't red cause I don't drink from human's. And I'll show you what happens in the light one day."

"What do you drink then?"

"Animal blood. That's why my eyes are topaz."

My eyes widened in realization.

"Your whole family are vampires too?" I exclaimed in disbelief. Edward just chuckled.

"Wow, this is wow… Hey, can I watch you hunt?" I asked turning in my seat slightly

"No. I would never allow that."

"Why?"

"Because when we are hunting we loose all our control. You would get hurt."

I nodded silently and then noticed the car stopped.

"Hello Jessica, I would like to tell you that I will be taking Bella home so you don't have to worry."

I looked at all their faces as they stared in complete awe. Cory had a distant look on her face, but she smiled wildly as she waved goodbye as Edward sped off down the street.

CPOV

I sat near the middle of Town Square. My guitar case closed and a single candle lit on top. Hardly no one was around but that's okay I liked it the most like that.

I breathed in and then started strumming the chords.

Hey, I said wait. Don't leave me here to die alone
Take another chance, we could make this last, you never know

the world keeps on turning,

My heart won't stop burning,

And deep down inside, I don't want to say goodbye
the first time we kissed oh the taste of your lips,

There were fireworks going off in my mind
the time when we went out and danced in the rain,

Laid out in the street and we called out our names...

Do you remember? Do you remember?

I missed you last night, empty bedside
I was cold, cold and alone
I admit I cried, cried over us
Over all were lost, lost and was

the world keeps on turning,

My heart won't stop burning,

And deep down inside, I don't want to say goodbye
the first time we kissed oh the taste of your lips,

There were fireworks going off in my mind
the time when we went out and danced in the rain,

Laid out in the street and we called out our names...

Do you remember? Do you remember?
Are we to be Romeo and Juliet,

Separated forever, lost in our own regrets?
Are we not to be one with another,

Fulfilling our roles as a pair of star-crossed lovers?

the world keeps on turning,

My heart won't stop burning,

And deep down inside, I don't want to say goodbye
the first time we kissed oh the taste of your lips,

There were fireworks going off in my mind
the time when we went out and danced in the rain,

Laid out in the street and we called out our names...
Do you remember? Yes I reme- (A/N:i cut it off here for a reason)

I looked across the Square and saw him. Standing there watching me play leaning casually against a light post. His hair fell messily over his eyes as he flicked his head to brush away the bangs. His hands were in his pockets and he was wearing a black leather coat. I stopped playing, and when I stopped, he straightened. Quickly put my guitar away and chased after him.

"Dustin wait!" I called. He had turned and was walking quickly down the empty street. He turned down one street and by the time I turned the same corner he was at the end facing the right but his head was turned in my direction. He smiled at me softly as I continued to run; the reflection of the streetlights against his skin looked like a fairytale, his smile was radiant. When I was about ten feet away he walked around the corner.

"Dustin wait ple-" I reached the corner and looked down the street I didn't see him, anywhere. I turned in circles searching the almost empty streets. I can't be going crazy can I?

"Cory! Over here!" I turned to see the girls sitting at the café I let out a breath and walked over to them

"Where's Bella?"

"She went to go get you."

"What?" I said before putting down my guitar to go look for her.

"Cory," Lauren grabbed my arm "if she can't find you she'll come back don't worry. There's no point in both of you disappearing." I protested but they wouldn't hear of it.

They were chatting girlishly about their dresses while I was pondering my sanity.

That was Dustin. I know it was. Why did he run? How did he vanish? I know it was real; it had to be.
