DEFYING DESTINY

CHAPTER 9

I felt the blood drain from my face and my frame shake. My breathing went awry but Edward was too busy to notice. I tried to talk but all that came out was a squek. I cleared my throat, licked my lips and tried to distract him.

"So, vampire, huh? Any other thing I should know?"

His breathing hitched and his features went hard.

"Nothing whatsoever. "

I frowned "But."

"No. Not right now."

We drove to my house in slience and I grew suspicious. How did he know my address…? I was about to ask when Edward's head snapped up with a shocked expression on his face before my door was wrenched open and I felt my fathers hand grab me.

"You fucking bitch! Staying up late with a boy? Whore!" He grabbed my arm and threw me across the lawn with super human strength. I felt several bones snap as I hit my head against a tree and everything went black. I awoke later I the back of Edward's car. I quickly sat up and a wave of nausea hit me, forcing me back to lying down.

"Don't overdo yourself. You've broken several ribs, your arm and you could have a concussion." He said. It explained the throbbing at the back of my skull.

"Wh…. Where are we going?" My voice drawled. It didn't sound like me.

"To my house. My father is the head doctor at Forks hospital." He replied looking at me and ignoring the road (Another vampire thing I assumed) his features softened.

"I will never let him hurt you again." He gently told me.

I bit my lip as another wave came. Everything felt so surreal. I wanted to sleep. Sleep would be good. My eyelids felt so heavy….

"NO!" Edward's voice caused my eyes to snap open. "Serenity, don't!"

"Why…?" My voice drawled. I closed my eyes again and as the darkness began to pull me under I felt his cold hands on my face, cooling my fevered skin.

"Open your eyes." He whispered.

I opened my eyes and looked into is melted eyes, his face paler than usual.

"You really must have it bad.."

I felt the sting of tears threaten to flow.

"Yeah, it's nothing I can't handle." I shrugged.

He shook his head. "No one should have to deal with this." He closed his eyes, hardened his features and gave me a sad smile.

AN: I actually deleted a whole scene. I'll put that up separately later.

DEFYING DESTINY

CHAPTER 9 – CONTINUED

We were parked outside a field in the less populated part of Forks. I opened the door to let the air in and felt a wonderful emotion engulf me. Freedom. Happiness. I sighed and gazed outside wistfully when I felt a pair of strong arms lift and hold me gently against a marble chest, cradelling me as if I was a child. Then, we were in the middle of the field, beneath the trees.

"You know, I've always wanted to fly away," I smiled up at Edward.

He blinked. "I guess you should."

He slowly began to spin around gracefully as I tilted my head back and closed my eyes. My unhurt arm lifted as if to catch the moon and I was washed in it's white light.

"You look like an angel," He whispered.

"Yeah, an angel caught in hell," I thought glumly as he halted.

Then the most amazing thing happened.

The full moon's light was freed from the clounds and shone down on us, fireflies erupted around us, stars sparkled in the heavens and it was so beautiful. Edward's gaze made me look up at him and he gave me a crooked grin.

"Dance with me," And set me down on my feet. Carefully so it didn't hurt, my vampire held me and lead me in a waltz. I had never felt so happy, so free, so pure. I threw my head back and laughed as we danced to the sounds of the night, without a care in the world.
