Chapter 22: For You I Will
Wondering the streets, in a world underneath it all
Nothing seems to be, nothing tastes as sweet
As what I can't have
The dull ach in the back of my throat was very irritating even though Bella said it would lessen in a year. I cleared my throat as Bella sat at the computer. She had taken it upon herself to by me a "new vampire wardrobe", her words not mine. I seriously think Alice is rubbing off on her. Not that I'm complaining though, yesterday Bella had surprised me with my own car.
Like you and the way that you're twisting your hair
round your finger
Tonight I'm not afraid to tell you
What I feel about you.
It was a silver Volvo and I loved it at first sight, I was a little mad that she spent so much money but she reminded me that technically it was my money now. We would be leaving for Alaska in a few days and I was kind of nervous to meet more vampires. In preparation for our move Carlisle had started to inform on all the vampire stuff didn't already know.

"Bella how much stuff have you bought?" I asked terrified of her answer.
"A lot" she said simply. I groaned and returned to sorting through her many CD's. I pulled one out and was surprised that it was one I had as well. In fact Bella and I had a very similar taste in music, we weren't mainstream we just liked what we thought was good.
Forgive me if I stutter
From all of the clutter in my head
Cuz I could fall asleep in those eyes
Like a water bed
"Bella?" I asked suddenly.
"Uh?" she answered.
"Are you ever…do you ever fell left out because you don't have a power?"
She grew very still and I would have thought she went into shock if I had known better. I heard chewing bottom lip trying to think of an answer.
Do I seem familiar, I've crossed you in hallways
a thousand times, no more camouflage
I want to be exposed, and not be afraid to fall.
"Sometimes" she said finally.
"Don't worry I promise to make sure Emmett doesn't pull any more pranks" I joked. Bella laughed and I heard Emmett in the next room grumbling about my promise.

Bella's POV
Edward was doing very well. He was satisfied with just hunting animals, but I could tell that sometimes it was struggle. He and Jasper had bonded over the difficultly of resistance. Esme was ecstatic that I had finally found someone to be with and I wasn't going to spend eternity alone. To be honest so was I.

For you
Edward and I were like a story from a book come to life. I had just exited out of the clothing website I was searching when Edward swept me up into his arms. He kissed me and then placed me back on my feet.
If I could dim the lights in the mall
And create a mood I would
"You're enjoying that newborn strength" I giggled.
"Yup" he replied. He took my hand and began to lead me downstairs.
"Where are we going?" I asked.
"You'll see."
Shout out your name so it echoes in every room
I would
That's what I'd do, That's what I'd do to get through to you
We got into his car and he drove away from the house. I recognized our surroundings and I smiled. We were going back to the meadow. Edward stopped the car and held my door open for me.

Once we were on the trail I took the lead. We reached the meadow and it was exactly how we left it. Edward stepped into the sunlight and I gasped. He was sparkling; making him look like some Greek god. I walked towards him and he pulled me towards him.

I breathed in his scent and relished in how good he smelled.
"I love you," Edward murmured.
"I love you too," I answered and kissed his lips, letting everything else disappear.
