A/n: Super sorry for not updating sooner. I feel like a complete biz-itch for not doing it sooner.

One person said there were spelling mistakes in my fic. Well I don't have a beta to fix it and I don't catch everything so I apologize.

I listened to Unintended by Muse and yes it totally does fit! I listened to it while writing this chapter. : )

So here's Bella's point of view.

To say that I wasn't afraid for my life would be a complete lie. Of course I'm slightly nervous about being around Edward but for some strange reason I feel protected when I'm near him. That nothing was going to happen and that I could trust him. Can I?

"So where would you like to eat?" he asked politely.

"That place where I had the mushroom ravioli with you and Alice will be fine with me." I replied while playing with my hands.

About twenty minutes later we ended up out side of the Italian restaurant. I made my way outside and into the cozy area. It was warm and the aroma just felt Italian.

"Table for two please." Edward's smooth voice asked the waiter.

"Any thing for you sir." You don't need eyes to tell she was flirting. The lust was pouring out of her mouth and it sounded as if she would jump him right in front of me. And the rest of the restaurant.

I felt Edward's cold fingers wrap around mine and we walked towards the table. After sitting down and ordering I immediately became curious again.

"What would happen if a vampire ate human food?"

"Emmett was curious and supposedly it taste like dirt." he said. " I never tried it myself but I know afterwards Emmett had to vomit it all up again. It wasn't very pleasant."

"Oh." I nodded. "It's ironic how blood makes me nauseous but I hang around a vampire."

"Very ironic." I heard the smile in his voice and I responded with the same.

The food finally came and I didn't know how hungry I was until I smelled the mouth-watering meal.

"Have you every wondered what people look like when you talk to them?" he asked out of the blue. I swallowed my mouthful of ravioli and answered.

"Well I never wanted to forget what my mom looks liked so every once in a while I would touch her face to remind myself." I shrugged.

"Have you ever done it to anyone else." I was confused at that point. It was a very intimate thing for me and I only did it to people who meant a lot to me. Does that mean Edward wants me to feel up on his face? God, why must that sound so weird?

"Well…I guess yeah. I mean all you get is the simple description of me. I want you to know the real me." he said so quietly I almost didn't hear him.

"Okay." I put my fork and knife down and cleaned my fingers with my napkin.

I felt his face and immediately felt the coldness that I was used to coming from his fingers. His skin was soft yet hard like marble. I felt his cheek and well defined jaw. I tried picturing it all in my head taking note of the paleness he said he had.

"What color are you're eyes?" I asked while still touching his face. He leaned in to my touch and answered.

"They are gold because of the diet my family and I go by. If I drank human blood than my eyes would be red."

Half of me was yelling saying to run away and don't look back. But the other half wanted me to learn so much more about this vampire boy. What makes him tick and what his childhood was like. I'm an idiot for listening to my curious and trusting side.

I brushed my hand along his cheek and down his chin. I pulled away and suddenly missed the feeling of his face along my fingers.

"What color is your hair?" I asked.

"I think it's brown but Alice constantly calls it copper."

"I'll go with copper than." I was feeling pretty bold so I reached out and felt his forehead. I went a little further and felt his hair. It was thick and soft all at the same time. It stood a few inches from head and I could feel him move closer. I began to run my fingers through it and I heard him sigh and push his head into my hand. After what felt like forever I pulled away unsure of what to say. So I said what first came to mind.

"Your hair is really wild." I giggled. He chuckled and I went back to eating.

" So you read minds." I started. "What's that like."

"You ask that like it's the most common thing in the world." he laughed. I couldn't help but join him. "Well sometimes it's like hell but occasionally it's helpful."

"How is it helpful?"

"Between Alice and her premonitions and me with my mind reading we know every possible test coming up in school."

"You've probably been to high school multiple times; tests should be a piece of cake." I shrugged.

"It's pretty tedious so I usually zone out in class."

"Paying attention is mandatory in class Mr. Cullen." I scolded playfully.

"I've never cared about anything in school until something interesting grabbed my attention."

I was unsure if he mean me but I hoped so. Just the thought of Edward being interested in me made my heart flutter.

After that we continued to chat a bit and I learned some interesting things about him. We basically talked about his family and I told him of what my child hood was like. I wasn't completely embarrassed when I told him I did ballet in the fourth grade. Not the best decision my mother has ever made. Then the conversation turned once again.

"Do you remember what it's like to be human?"

"Well I remember important parts of my life but I don't remember small things like a human would. Like you can remember what your favorite food is but anything I ate as a human has been forgotten." He replied.

"So what do you remember?"

"I remember my mother very well." I gestured for him to continue. "Elizabeth, my mom, is a lot like Esme, my step mother. She was very calm and had serene soul. She was first person to teach me piano. After the both of us pretty much died I've been learning on my own. I think the connection I have with Esme was so strong because she's a lot like my mother. Very sweet and kind and gentle. You see, my father wasn't really around so I wasn't able to have a dad in the house. Even when he was there I barely mattered to him anyway. My mother getting pregnant with me was a complete mistake to him. But my mother never allowed me to feel like I was a mistake. She made me feel as I was worth something and that maybe one day I will receive happiness. I haven't gotten that for about 90 years now and I'm still looking."

"You'll find that happiness someday, Edward. I know you will." I wiped my mouth with the napkin and folded my hand in my lap.

"I hope so." he said in a very wistful tone. "I should take you back now. You're dad will probably wonder where you are."

"Yeah that's best."

Later on at Bella's…

After Edward dropped me off and I was bombarded with questions by Charlie I headed upstairs to my room. I was pretty tired with everything that had happened lately. I mean what are you suppose to feel like when you know the person you're in love with is a vamp-wait. In love with? Was I honestly and truly in love with Edward. Maybe a slight crush, but love? I practically met the guy a two weeks a go, I can't love him.

Then again what's not to love? He has an amazing personality and is more of a gentleman than all of the other boys I have ever met in my life combined. And from what I hear he's pretty good looking. But (there's always a but) I have know idea if he likes me back.

I found everything for my shower and began to walk towards the bathroom.

As I rubbed the shampoo through my hair a wave of doubt came over me. So what if I like Edward. Doesn't mean he likes you back. There was probably a million pretty girls at this school and he didn't have to choose me at all. The doubt was replaced with a bit of confidence when I remembered that Jessica had said that the Cullens weren't social outside of their group. I must have done something to make him want to hang around me. Maybe it's because we share the same interest?

I finished my shower and walked back to my room. I found my pajamas and slipped them on. Right before I was about to fold up my cane I heard a tapping on the window. I immediately froze and my muscles tensed.

I know I was probably being crazy and it was just the wind against the tree next to my window so I continued folding the cane.

Tap tap tap. Bellaaa.

Either I'm a schizophrenic or someone was outside calling my name from the tree. I didn't want to sit here and waste time to figure that out.

"Charlie.." I called out. My voice was shaky and probably too low for him to hear because the television.

"Bella no it's me." Yeah as if I actually know who they actually were. "It's Edward."

My heart fluttered and I hesitantly walked over to the window and lifted it up before I took a few cautious steps back. The cool breeze flew in and I heard a thump and two feet walk over to me. I felt cold hands touch each side of my face.

"Bella it's me." his velvety voice said to me.

"Are you crazy. You could have gotten hurt."

"Vampire." I could hear the smile in his voice.

"What if Charlie caught you. He probably would of tried to put a bullet through your head. You wouldn't have gotten hurt but-" I felt his hand press over my mouth and I began to pout.

"He's sleeping. Anyone in a two mile radius could probably hear his snoring." he laughed and I couldn't help but join him.

"What are you doing here anyway?" I asked after he pulled his hand away. We walked over towards the bed and sat down.

"Do you want me to leave?" he asked worriedly.

"No, no of course not. I want you to stay." I felt the heat emit on my cheeks. "I was just wondering what made you want to come."

"I needed to see you again, Bella." he explained. "I'm so confused right now and I feel the need to be with you. I'm not suppose to talk to you at all because of the risk of our secret."

"Then why do you talk to me?" I was thoroughly confused. If he wasn't suppose to be with me than why did he break the rules to be here?

"Because Bella I think I like you." my heart fluttered at his words and I'm pretty sure he could hear it beating. Any human probably could too. "But Bella it's more than like. Us vampires don't really do relationships the way humans do. Most of us settle down with one person forever. They are our soul mates or our other halves. And Bella I think I found that in you."

I had a mixture of feelings-confusion, hope, love- when he said what he did. I mean seriously a soul mate? That's someone you're destined to be with forever. No one else.

"Are you sure, Edward." I raised my eyebrow. "I'm not a vampire so I can't live for eternity."

"I know Bella but I'm willing to be with you as long as you want me." I couldn't think of a moment where I wouldn't ever want to be with him. "I want to try something Bella."

I felt his hand on my cheek and my heart began to race with thoughts of what he might do. I felt the chill of his breath on my face and I thought I would pass out because of his sweet and spicy scent. His cool lips pressed against mine and I could feel the fire ignite.

You know that feeling in all those books. Well the one where the couple is in a romantic spot and they end up in deep conversation. They end up forgetting the rest of the world. Almost as if it's just the two of them and it's all that matters. When they both lean in for a kiss they feel the sparks. They feel the love they share for each other and both of their feelings are out on display for the world to see. As corny as it sounds that's how I felt. I could feel the fire works and I didn't want it to end. I wasn't always the one to believe in love at first sight but I believe now. Well technically not love at first 'sight' but there is still some meaning behind it.

After a few minutes of our lips moving in perfect sync he pulled away. My heart clenched at the feeling of loss.

"So I guess that makes out relationship official." I said with a smile on his face.

"Yes and tomorrow I want to take you somewhere." Once again he was smiling. "It's my favorite spot in the entire world and I want to share it with you."

"Okay. Tomorrow then." I let out a yawn and stretched a bit.

"Good to know my kisses bore you to sleep." he said with mock offense.

"They definitely do not Mr. Cullen." I said shaking my head. "But I would enjoy a tad bit of sleep."

"I should go then." The weight on the bed decreased a bit but I reached out and grabbed his arm.

"Wait no. I want you to stay."

"Alright." He said and I crawled under the covers. I felt him slide next to me on top of them.

"I don't want you to get cold." He said almost as if he could read my mind.

"I like the cold." I whispered clinging on to his body.

"Hopefully you'll be experiencing a lot of it." he replied and kissed my forehead.

I fell asleep in his arms and I had an odd feeling. It was almost as if I was complete. That if the last thing I could have in the world would be Edward, I'd be perfectly fine with it. And I am.
