.A/N: I just finished reading "the host" and it's super amazing. I have an idea for a story on the host, but I'm not settled. I'm scared lol. It's a strange idea. I might write it and I might not lol. So I'm guessing I would tell you a summary if you want and you could tell me if you want me to write it or not. Hope you like the first chappy of this one. Enjoy!

1. Gone!

Thirty three, thirty four, thirty five, thirty six…………. Ugh! How many footsteps would it take him to get to the door? I guess there's a human outside, that's why he had to keep a human pace. I didn't like human pace. It was so…….slow. My hobby has been running with Edward ever since I got changed. It was so much fun.

Forty five, forty six, forty seven……. Click! I heard the lock of our house door. Edward's here!

Once the door was closed I was in his arms. Even though I ran to him in a vampire speed, it didn't seem quick enough for me. I breathed in his scent that I hadn't smelled for hours.

"mmm" I sighed. His arms wrapped around me and his face pressed in my hair. I noticed that he wasn't wearing the same clothes he had worn when he left this morning. But I didn't ask, I knew he would tell me.

"I missed you so much, Mrs. Cullen" He added a chuckle in the end.

"Ahem, what did we discuss?" I gave my husband a playful glare. I tried to ignore what his beautiful face or his dazzling golden eyes did to me. He smiled.

"Sorry, Mrs. Masen" He took my face in his hands and leaned in to kiss me. If my heart had been able to beat, it would have crashed out of my ribcage right now. "But you know what, now I'm in the mood of just Bella" He smiled my smile. The crooked one. The one that had always made my heart stop.

I smiled back, "Ok then, just Bella and Edward" He usually said that when he was in a very, very, very good mood. And that happens almost every second of the day. I took his hand and pulled him with me to our living room. He came with me.

The room was huge. It was round and spacious. We had a big window that were covered with long white curtains. Opposite the window was a couple of couches. Light brownish ones. One was on the right the other on the left. They made a v-shape. On both sides there were two armchairs. And in the middle of the floor was a bunch of colorful pillows that gave the room a nice twist. Edward insisted on bring the big plasma TV. We don't use it much. When Edward wasn't here I sat in front of the clock waiting for it to strike six. And when he's here we spend our time together. The only time we use it is when there's a good romance movie on. Edward and I would watch it together.

There was a door in the very end of this room that lead to my favorite room. The piano room. It was almost as big as this one is. It only had the piano in the middle of the room. And the rest of the room was surrounded by other black and white pillows to match the piano. It was instead of the seats. We would be here in the end of each day. I would lay on the pillows as if I were to sleep and Edward would play my lullaby. I loved this room. I was the one who insisted on making it. Edward's house had to include his piano.

"How was work today?" I asked as I pulled him with me on the couch. Edward, now, helps Carlisle in the hospital. I asked him why once, he said: "I'm your husband sweetheart and I have to take care of you. I'm not taking our family's money. I want us to live from our money. I will work to bring you money, my lovely wife". I shouldn't have asked. I always knew Edward's a gentleman. I had rolled my eyes when he told me that. But I really appreciate what he's doing. I wouldn't like living off The Cullens money. Even if I was one of them now.

"Well it was going so well until a man came and he was covered in blood from head to toe. It was horrible. I ignored the burn but then a nurse was holding a bag full of blood to hang it for the patient. She tripped and spilled half of the bag on me" He winced when he remembered the smell. Oh, so that's why he had different clothes on.

"Oh that must have been so bad" I winced as I imagined how it would feel like, "Lay down for a while" It was a habit. I knew he couldn't be that tired. He was a vampire.

He smiled and nodded. He lifted his legs up and stretched them on the couch. Then he laid his head on my lap and took one of my hands in both of his. His face was facing the ceiling but his eyes were on me. I started playing with his hair using my free hand as I stared into his eyes.

"Comfy?" I whispered when he closed his eyes.

He sighed, "Slightly better than comfortable" he murmured without opening his eyes. This is how he usually relaxes. It was relaxing for both, him and me.

I was twisting his hair around. Probably messing it more than it already was. I closed my eyes too. Too content.

"What are you thinking?" I heard him whisper after a very long while. I have no idea how long we sat like that, but we weren't willing to move.

I opened my eyes to find his open. Burning into mine. I smiled. A lot of things changed since I became a vampire but this question certainly didn't.

"I was thinking about how perfect this is" I whispered and smiled warmer when I felt both his hands squeeze mine, "When I realized that I loved you and that by some miracle you loved me too, I never thought, never even dreamed that anything could make me more happy than that. I used to think that I had the whole world in my hands because you loved me. Now, I realize that I was wrong." He cocked his head to one side, closer to my knee and pulled his eyebrows together. Edward always have to worry.

"Right now, knowing that I'm yours and your mine forever. That we live in this house together as husband and wife. That nothing can ever separate us again. Well, I can't imagine how I lived before without having all that." His warm smile was back. I pulled my hand out of his smooth hair and pressed it against his cheek. He took it and kissed my palm gently. An electric shock ran through my body.

"I love you Bella. I'm sorry I can't find another word that could fit better but that's the biggest I could find" He put a hand on my cheek and stroked it gently. I leaned into his hand. "I still don't believe that I get to keep you forever. At first it was only a dream that I didn't even allow myself to imagine. Look now! You're the most beautiful vampire, and you're my wife. I can't even tell you how those two words, my wife, make me feel like. It's just entirely indescribable." He whispered sincerely, his eyes never leaving mine. "Thank you for being my wife" He said simply with a smile.

I leaned down and touched the tip of my nose to the tip of his and smiled, "you know I only married you to stay close to Esme, Alice, and Carlisle. You know how much I love them. Don't think I married you because I love you or anything" I teased.

"Of course I know. How silly to think that I could think that you would marry me because you love me. Of course you did it for them. Poor you. You suffer so much" he teased back and made his expression look like he really did pity me.

I chuckled, "I'll live"

"mm" he sighed. He looked thoughtful for a moment then a smile flashed on his face, "How about we travel this weekend?" He offered suddenly.

"Again?" We just got back from Australia last week. And two weeks before that we were in Mexico. And before that…..... Well, we travel almost every two weeks.

"Yeah, how about France this time?" He beamed.

"Edward, I really don't understand why do you insist on traveling so much" I said honestly.

"I want to make you happy, not bore you to death. Alaska is so dull. There's nothing interesting in it. And besides you're my wife" I saw a flash of excitement in his eyes when he said that, "I want to show you the world"

"Who told you I was bored? And I'm completely happy" did he doubt that?

"I think France's nice, don't you?" His smile is crooked.

I groaned. It was just like him and presents. He just loves spending money on me. How can I convince him that he should save that money for anything else more important?

I knew that what ever I said won't stop him. Why bother? "France….. is nice" I agreed with a sigh.

In a second he was beside me, holding both my hands in his. His eyes boring into mine.

"You don't have to agree if you don't want to" he murmured, "I'm not forcing you. I just want you to be happy"

I groaned internally, why did he have to be so irresistible? Why can't I tell him no?

"No, it's ok. France sounds cool. And I am happy. Be sure of that" I said the last two sentences firmly. Maybe one day he would understand them.

His smile was thrilled now, "Let's go pack"

I laughed out loud, "Edward, we never did unpack"

"Oh, right" he remembered with a sheepish grin.

I heard the telephone ring. I smiled at Edward and he nodded. I stretched my hand to get the telephone that was on a small table beside the couch.

"Hello?" I said quietly.

"Um hi Bella" It was Rosalie. I was confused. Rosalie never called. And why did her voice sound so tense?

"Hey, Rose. How are you?" I tried to seem casual.

She ignored my question, "Bella, is Alice with you?"

"No, why?" I asked confused. I looked at Edward, he had his eyebrows pulled together. He met my confused gaze and shrugged.

"Do you know where she is?"

"No"

"How about Edward?" I looked at Edward but Edward shook his head, his face started to get anxious.

"No, he doesn't. What's wrong Rose?" I asked concerned.

"We can't find Alice" She whispered her voice changing from tension to fear.

I gasped, "What do you mean you can't find her?" Edward froze beside me and his eyes were wide.

"She left two days ago and she didn't come back"

A/N: Where's Alice? What happened? Hope you enjoyed the first chappy. Cya in the next

Love
