Okay so I updated MLIT&T so I've decided to put up another chapter to this story.
I hope this spices things up to my curious readers who have super big questions in their head.
Believe me when I say that I bet you'll love this story as much as I enjoy writing it.
Usual disclamer.
Twilight & VA?
Not mine.
Thanks Stephenie Meyer & Richelle Mead.
Enjoy!
Chapter 4
Still Heart
I knocked on Bella's how door and who opened up was Charlie.
"Edward"
"Hello Charlie I'm here to see Bella. Is she busy?"
"No she isn't here"
"Do you know where she is?"
I read it in his mind before he could even answer.
"She's at the reservation. Jacob came to pick her up about two hours ago"
Two hours ago? She didn't tell me anything. How could Alice not even know Bella was in that kind of danger?
Hanging with werewolves.
I sighed.
"Thank you Charlie. Please tell her I stopped by"
He nodded and I walked back to my car.
When I got in my car I called Bella first.
After the fourth ring it went to voicemail.
"Hi you reached Bella. Sorry I couldn't answer your call. But leave me a message and I'll call you back"
I sighed and hung up the phone.
Then I called Alice.
"Edward?" she answered after the first ring.
"She's at the reservation. How could you not see that?"
"I'm sorry Edward. I was distracted with…your…future that I forgot all about Bella"
I sighed frustrated.
"Alice, right now I don't care about me. I care about Bella and her safety. How do you think I feel not knowing whether she's safe or not? Especially when she's not answering her cell phone"
Then I hung up.
I sped away back to my house. When I got there I didn't acknowledge anyone. I wasn't in the mood. I darted up the stairs to my room and when I entered I found the girl still soundly asleep. She looked peaceful.
Sitting on the couch right next to my bed brought me peace too.
Like around ten o'clock my phone rang.
Bella.
"Hello"
"Edward" Bella sighed and all my irritation melted away.
"Bella. Why didn't you tell me that you were going to the reservation today? I could've driven you to the line between territories. I've been worried about you"
That wasn't a lie. I was worried, but not as much as I thought I should. The girl brought my still heart some peace, that I was mildly worried about Bella's safety.
"I'm sorry Edward, I forgot to call and tell you. But honestly how many times do I have to assure you that when I'm with Jacob and the pack, I'm as safe as I can be?"
I sighed. "I know, I'm sorry Bella but you have to know that I will always worry about your safety"
"I know"
"So did you have fun today at the Reservation?"
"Yeah, I hung out at Emily's house, helping her out with some wedding plans, and then I hung out at the beach with Jacob. It was fun. But I missed you so much today"
I smiled. "I missed you too"
"Can you come over tonight?" she asked hopefully.
"I'm sorry love. I still have things that need my attention. But there isn't a time that you're not in my thought Bella. Don't worry. As soon as everything that needs my attention is resolved I'll make up for our lost time"
Her voice sounded happy. "okay. I'm going to go and take a shower and then sleep"
"Okay. Sweet dreams my Bella"
"I love you" she said.
When she said those words I could minorly grasp what it's like to have a beating heart.
"I love you too" and then I hung up.
I continued to watch the girl overnight…again.
Before when I was looking at her I think I wasn't paying close attention because the bruises on her face were already healed. How is that possible?
She was only human. How can she already be healing?
Now I'm the one who has his head full of questions.
She is only human right?
She smelled human. Her blood…
More greater than Bella's.
I could imagine time and time again what the taste would feel like going down my throat.
I shook my head. No.
I could never do that to her, anymore than I've thought of doing that to Bella.
This girl. She's too beautiful and no one wants this "life".
"Dimitri" she said again and I saw her hand twitch, looking like she's reaching for someone.
Like if it was natural instinct for me I grabbed her hand and she immediately calmed down again.
She sighed in relief, the way I always noticed Bella did after she touched me.
Like I was her salvation as she was mine.
Was I someone calming for this girl?
For one reason or another I feel that right now she might need a protector and I'd gladly be that for her.
"Do you find her special?" asked Carlisle in his mind.
I automatically let go of the girl's hand.
"She's interesting. More so than Bella" I responded.
"Don't worry Edward. I know how you feel. Well more or less" he paused. "I bet her blood is appealing to you?"
I lowered my head in shame.
"So much more than Bella's. I still don't understand Carlisle. Is it really possible for there to be more than one?"
He put a hand on my shoulder. "Sometimes yes, sometimes no"
I sighed. "Thank you Carlisle"
He nodded and left.
I decided that for tonight I'd just lay here on the couch, staring at the sky. The moon was very visible tonight.
When was she going to wake?
Asleep a pure beauty.
Awake almost unimaginable.
Close to perfection.
"Who are you?"
I stiffened. My body for one felt like the stone it was made of.
That voice…
I turned around and I saw the most beautiful dark brown eyes staring at me.
Okay huge cligghanger but I definetely wanted to get that in there before the next chapter.
Next chapter we'll find out more about Rose and everything else.
So review and tell me whats the dealio
Peace In
