…Even with most of my days taken up by vampire rescuing and what not, I would never regret becoming a vampire because its nights like this and being with Edward that make me completely forget about all my Volturi worries and remind me that as long as I have Edward I could stand anything...

As the sun rose I curled over to look at my Bella's beautiful angelic face sparkle in places the sun touched it. Her eyes were closed but of course she wasn't asleep so I rested my lips on the top of her head softly to let her know she could wake.

"Edward" she mumbled against my chest……

(At the airport)

We arrived at the airport early on account of our speedy driving so we all sat on the uncomfortable airport couches until it was necessary for us to go through customs etc.

Hmm might as well spend my last $40 Scottish money at the airport, won't have any use for it in Africa. But what could I possibly want in this airport. I looked at Bella for inspiration then smiled.

"Bella, you guys get going I'll meet you at the other end of customs okay?"

"But Edwar-"

"I'm just going to pick something up and meet you on the plane alright?" I gave her one of my crooked smiles, I knew dazzled her.

"Well… okay, love you." she said. She pecked me quickly on the top of my forehead, then on my lips before standing up and gliding into customs with the others.

"Love you too Bells." I whispered, knowing she would be able to hear it.

I took off in the other direction, back to the shopping part of the airport and entered a small florist.

"Hello sir how can I help you?"

"Ahh… a dozen red roses please" I could tell I dazzled the poor young lady. She fluffed around under the counter for two seconds before reappearing with 12 beautiful red roses, then she asked how I would like them wrapped. She followed my request and simply bound them creatively together with a red ribbon.

"That'll be $39.95 please."

Perfect.

I continued to pay for the roses and get back to Bella who I knew always appreciated my little, unexpected gifts. I liked giving things to Bella and make her smile, I often surprise her randomly with books or flowers or bracelets…

I went through customs and reached my gate and proceeded into my private plane.

As I approached the door of the plane eager to get to Bella, the hand of the hostess at the door darted out in front of me and stopped me front entering.

"Excuse me?" I asked, a little confused.

"I'm terribly sorry sir, the original aircraft is unable to fly, at this point in time and although we have replaced it with another private aircraft, it is much smaller and only holds seven passengers… I'm sorry for the inconvenience sir and we have organized a seat for you on a commercial airline, headed for the same destination. We will inform your family sir and again we are extremely sorry for the inconvenience; your flight will be complementary sir, on behalf of the airline"

I looked at her dumbfounded but she looked sincere so I sighed followed her lead to the other plane. I mean what else could I do? It's a simple inconvenience that's all, I'll see Bella soon enough and give her, her roses then.

The hostess kindly took me to another gate and escorted me to my isle seat. I was seated next to a large, grumpy looking man who didn't look up to conversation and smelt bad so I put on the headset, closed my eyes and pretended to be sleeping so no one would bother me.

Ten minutes passed like a second to me so eventually an hour passed, then two, then five, and it only seemed like a snippet of time had gone passed. Not long until I see Bella again.

'BANG'

To everyone else this would've happened in less than a second but with my being a vampire and all, I could kind of tell what was happening. The back half of the plane (which I was on) was plummeting into the open ocean thousands of feet below, while the front half of the plane had blown up. Completely destroyed. I could feel and hear the blast.

In the small amount of seconds I had before crashing into the ocean with many screaming humans, I wondered what had gone faulty in the front half of the plane to cause a small explosion. Then my thoughts quickly brushed over my current situation, plummeting thousands of feet, then they quickly fixed themselves on nothing other than Bella.

Oh I hope at least your ok Bella.

Even as a vampire my mind and body were completely in shock. It's not everyday your plane blows up. I suddenly felt a large jolt, I heard the human's screams and pleas intensify, and then felt the water wash over me and rip me out of my seat as the half aircraft collided with the water. My mind passed over Bella for a split second before everything went black.
