A/N: Short filler chapter, just to let you know! You don't really have to review this.

Disclaimer: Twilight does not belong to me, it belongs to Stephenie Meyere


Once Edward was out of the room, I quickly put back on my clothes. Those undergarmets were more than embarrassing! I got up and sat down on one of the chairs, and waited patiently for him. Actually, I think I was the only one in this family to be patient at all. I had countless conversations with Jasper or Emmett where I would take about five seconds to think of an answer to their question, and they would be off, already disinterested!

Finally, he came in slowly through the door. In his hands were car keys.

"Let's go for a ride." Edward jingled the alluring keys in front of my face. I was a bit confused but I still quickly took the keys from his hands.

"As long as I get to drive!" I smiled playfully and ran out the door, but even before I was at the steps, Edward had caught me by the waist, holding me tightly.

"And what makes you think I would agree to that?" He asked.

"Oh, I don't know…maybe because I have been deprived of my riding privileges this whole day!" I reminded him slyly of how he made me go shopping with Alice.

"Okay, but maybe I could drive some?" He let me go and I turned around to look at his pleading eyes.

"Umm…" I thought about it, wondering if I could give him such a gift when he consciously made me go shopping. But then, I looked into his deep beautiful eyes and I dissolved. It was so unfair the way he did that. Why didn't I have that affect on him? "I guess so." I finally said hesitantly. He smiled hugely and picked me up in his arms. He ran the fastest I have ever seen him run (in his house) to the car. He slid me into the driver seat of the Aston Martin and then quickly sat in the passenger seat. He was smiling and his hair was messy, but this only made him look better. He waited there, looking as if getting ready for the fast, invigorating car ride. But I just sat there, thinking.

"Come on! Let's go!" Edward said in a childish voice. He jumped up and down in his seat, ready for the high-speed ride.

"I want to drive my car!" I got out of the car and threw the keys to the other side, right outside of his door. And even though he wasn't out of the car yet, he still caught them. I jumped inside the car and found my keys on the dashboard.

"Why not my car?" He asked.

"I like my car better." I turned on my Porsche, and it purred reassuringly. Aww, I love this car. And just to surprise Edward (which was nearly impossible) I suddenly stepped on the gas all the way. We were out of the front yard immediately. And instead of turning toward Forks, down the hill, I turned the other way. I had never gone past his house, which was in the thick woods. When I looked over at Edward, he looked curious, but he didn't say anything. I pushed down the gas even more. Now I was going 120 mph, and Edward was looking a bit scared.

"If you get a ticket…" He warned me, but I just shrugged and once again, pushed the pedal further. Soon, the road became winding and it was hard to go 140 mph on it. I slowed 110, but I wasn't so happy. Edward and I were in silence as I drove up the now inclining hill.

"Edward, do you know where we are going?" I asked, breaking the quiet.

"Um, I have only been up here once before." He shrugged, then added, "At the top of the hill is a beautiful cliff. From there, you can see all the stars, if it's not cloudy."

I nodded and kept going, determined to reach the top. The whole way, I thought of the reason of my previous reaction to Edward. Why had I stopped? Maybe I was scared. But no, whenever I was with him, I felt an overwhelming calm, just like when Jasper was in the room. So scared was defiantly out. But maybe I wasn't scared of him? Maybe I was scared of It. I wasn't sure, and by the time I reached the end of the road, I still was undecided. Edward and I quickly got out of the car and walked together to the edge of the cliff. I looked down at the drop under us. And for some reason, I felt queasy, though that wasn't possible for vampires. I turned around and looked around. The cliff itself had grass and one small tree on it. There were not many trees here, unlike the road I was just on. As I was about to sit down, I felt Edward's cold hand grab my hand. I turned around and smiled.

"Don't worry." He whispered. And I knew, some how, that he was talking about earlier this evening. And even though his reassurance would usually help me, this time it didn't. It only made my mind race faster, knowing he was thinking about it too.

We both sat down. I leaned back and looked up at the cloudy sky. I knew, as a vampire, that dark and cloudy was very good, but right at that moment, I wish I was in Phoenix. Bathing in the hot sun. I looked over at Edward, who was sitting up, looking in front of him. He looked down at me, smiling.

"What are you thinking?" He asked.

I thought, not sure if I should say I wanted the sun. If I did, he would interpret it as a longing I had to be human again, which was untrue. So, instead of telling him the truth, like I always did, I told him a pure lie. "I was thinking about how nice this place is." I said, looking straight into his eyes, and for the first time, he believed one of my lies.

He smiled and nodded his head. I took his hand and sighed. I would have to tell him, sometime, why I had stopped. Why I had been scared, or whatever the feeling was. But for now, I was okay with just sitting here and relaxing.


A/N:So yeah, I'm sorry it is so short, but I needed a little filler. While I wrote this chapter, I thought of some new ideas for the rest of the story. So sorry if the next chapter doesn't come out until a while, I need to plan and strategize. Thanks for your patience!
