Sorry, but this is going to be a short chapter
When I allowed my lungs to take in air, the oxygen stabbed my insides like a dagger. I gasped to breathe, and ran in the opposite direction. Diana was right behind me questioning me madly. I had to stop to keep myself from stumbling and the high heels didn't help.
"What happened?" Diana demanded her eyes fierce.
"I … don't know." I stuttered. I couldn't have been hallucinating, could I?
"This is completely bizarre behavior. What are you thinking?" Anger and worry contorted Diana's perfectly smooth face.
"I thought I saw someone." I uttered quietly, surprised that she heard through the thumping music.
"Not this again. I got you out of Forks for that reason." Diana whined in exasperation.
"It's nothing. Forget it." The anger and regret that boiled in my blood quickly pieced me together. I went back towards the middle of the room through the corridor of flailing body parts knotted in various forms around each other.
Ravishing my lungs by taking in a deep breath I looked back in the direction of the golden eyes. Sure enough, they were staring back at me. I took in the whole being to find bronze locks carefully disarrayed around a marble white face. It seemed to glow in the dark and the black lights of the club. Next to the exquisite creature stood a much shorter one with similar features, but jet black pixie hair jutting out in various directions. She too watched me intently. The musky mixture of perfume and sweat stood between us as vanity wallowed in the beings inside the gap.
I clutched the eyes to my own and broke contact when I turned to walk outside. I convinced Diana that I needed a minute alone. The cold night air struck my face harshly and I stood shivering, though for a different reason entirely. Cryptic foot steps behind me commanded my attention.
"Bella." His voice dripped like honey from his perfect frigid lips. I stood in awe of the immortal less than a foot away from me.
I was caught in a whirlwind of emotions, every part of him called me to him as if invisible arms gripped me, pulling me towards his flawless body.
I nearly jumped when his cool fingers ran down my jaw. The tingling flames lashed out, but they were tender and kind.
"What are you doing here?" I demanded, resentment taking the upper hand.
"I had to see you. When you left Forks, I followed." He explained gently, voice a mere whisper.
"Well, what do you want?"
"To make sure you're alright. To apologize." His eyes blazed and danced in their utter misery.
"I'm fine." I said sadly, melancholy wrapping its firm fingers around my heart.
"And I'm sorry." His breathe escaped his mouth causing me to lose all coherence. His smell drove my mind in a tizzy. He could have done anything and I wouldn't have protested.
"I couldn't stay."
"You could have come back for me."
"I did."
"Too late."
