Chapter 10: Blue Eyes

Edward's POV

We reached the woods in no time, I sniffed the air and caught the sent of a mountain lion. I could feel the venom in my mouth water, I raced after it and watched it. It was hunting a rabbit and didn't realize he was being hunted as well. I lunged at his throat and broke it sinking in my teeth and sucking out all the blood. It was warm and delicious, but wasn't all that satisfying. I heard noises coming from the west and rushed over to see her, my angel sitting on a rock accompanied by Demetri, Caius and Victoria. I was surprised to see her and Bella sitting together or even in the same area together. I was about to snarl when I saw her figure but reminded myself to be quiet. I watched in silence making sure they didn't know I was watching.

''C'mon Vick, animal blood isn't that bad. Sure it doesn't satisfy you so well but there a lot more fun to eat.'' I was shocked that Caius was trying to get her to become vegetarian. She sighed and answered.

''Fine I'll try.'' She turned towards Bella and pointed her finger at her. ''But if I don't like it I blame you for getting them to become vegetarians and get me to become one.'' So it was Bella who changed their ways.

''Go ahead. Just because I don't need to hunt doesn't mean I need to watch them slaughter innocent people who have families and lovers.'' What did she mean by the fact that she didn't need to hunt.

''It must suck for you not to enjoy hunting. I mean you could if you want to right?'' Demetri was questioning this time.

''No, I can't. I'm actually glad I can't. I can't because I'm not attracted to blood, it helped a lot as a newborn.'' She smiled at them all.

''I'm jealous. You're lucky. I hate having a burn in my throat when I get near humans, it drives me insane.'' Caius made my Bella laugh, I missed her musical voice.

''I would like to say that I know how that feels but I can't really say that can I?'' Demetri laughed at her sarcasm before answering.

''Well I'll show Vicky how to hunt animals. So see you two later?'' They all nodded and he left with Victoria.

''Do you think he's falling for her?'' Caius was first to break the silence.

''I don't know. I guess after seeing her chest any guy would fall for her.'' I was laughing in my mind. I remembered that during the race, my eyes almost bugged out of my socket when I saw them but I returned to the race not even a second later.

''It wasn't as impressive as yours Bells.'' I almost jumped out an attacked him once he said that. Had he slept with her?

''Shut up Caius, you walked in on me in coming out of the shower! Stop giving yourself images off me or I'll kick a hole in your head!'' I was relieved to know that she hadn't slept with him.

''I'm not sorry about that, but anyway. Anyone catch your eyes?'' She stiffened and her face went cold.

''I'm not sure about who I love.'' I wanted desperately for her to say me, but knew there was a big chance.

''Are you still caught up on that jerk?'' Silence fell over until her mouth opened.

''Caius I know that you have I thing for me and that you hate him but I'm not sure if I hate him or like him and there's Marcus too.'' She sighed. '' Like Marcus has always been there for me since I became a vampire and comforted me about what that idiot did to me but I can't seem to forget him.'' If I had a heart it would be beating like crazy. She might still love me!

''Okay, so there's no chance of us?'' She nodded no.

''But hey I hear Steph likes you.'' His mouth fell open.

''NOW YOU TELL ME THAT SHE LIKES ME.'' She started laughing. ''Well I'm going to go see her then, you going to be okay out here alone?'' Silence fell over and Caius slapped himself in the face. ''That was a stupid question.'' She giggled again.

''I can kick anyone's behind if I get attacked silly.'' He hugged her and left leaving her to ponder on the massive rock. I was going to make my move and talk to her. I walked forward hoping she wouldn't get surprised, to my surprise she spoke without even hearing me.

''Yes lover boy, what do you wish?'' I didn't like her calling me lover boy.

''I would like to speak to the Princess.'' She sighed and turned around.

''I'm listening.'' I sighed, I could finally get my chance to talk to her and I shouldn't mess it up.

''I'm sorry for leaving you all those years I-'' She interrupted me.

''I don't want your apology, even though you hurt me it made me who I am today and that's nothing to unwish.'' Her voice was cold. I knew this wasn't going to be easy.

''Oh, okay. Well can I ask you a question?'' She nodded. '' Why are your eyes blue?'' I could tell she saw this coming.

''I'm special.'' I was disappointed; I knew there was another reason why. ''Don't be disappointed, the reason why is because I don't need to feed at all.'' I was surprised. Why couldn't I think of that?
