Chapter 23

You know how when you eat a couple of chips from the bag you have to eat more and more and more and eventually you've eaten the whole bag?

Kissing Josh in the forest was only a couple of my chips. We were both ready for more of the bag.

I pinned Josh to the ground while he brought his arms around my back to bring my body down to his.

As we kissed, our bodies closer than ever before, I brought my hands up and around and placed them on his shirt buttons. My fingers fumbled around trying to undo them. I heard a low chuckle down in Josh's throat, which made me giggle a bit, as I clumsily, slowly got the buttons un-done. When his shirt was nearly opened completely, I placed my cool hands on his warm, comforting skin.

My mind was so wrapped up in the kiss, so mesmerized by how good my hands upon his skin felt. I could feel my own heartbeat, and his, racing, going faster and faster, The feeling, this moment, it was so real…so perfect. We didn't need to take our clothes off to have a good time.

"Elizabeth, no!"

We pulled away from each other. I turned around to see Alice, Carlisle and my parents.

"Alice? What are you d…ohh…" I felt a sharp tingling pain throughout my body. A burning sensation cradled throughout it. My mind had ripped away the feeling of less than a minute ago, the feeling of pure love and happiness I felt, and replaced it with pain, burning and agony, my eyes closing to block out the pain.

"What's happening…" The voices I heard were all the same, they blended in with the soft pain I felt in my ears.

"She's changing…" I couldn't tell who spoke but I heard them. It sounded as if they were getting farther and farther away.

"Don't leave…" I managed to speak but it didn't sound like my own voice anymore.

"Bite her what change and bite her no I can't just do it…" The voices blended together into one, even quieter than before.

"Don't leave…" I said again. I tried to force my eyes open, but they wouldn't do it. My arms and legs felt like they were being bitten, ripped off. The sensation my entire body felt was none to be desired for.

"Please I can't bear to see her in pain her entire life you're our only hope please please do it now before it's too late…"

"Ahh…don't…" My words wouldn't even come out now. Whenever my mouth opened, only gasps and sighs of pain would come out.

But then I felt a sharp numbing feeling in my arm, I don't know which one, but it felt so good…so relieving.

And then everything went dark and I felt nothing more.

(Well, I hope you enjoyed that chapter! It's a bit short…but I think it's one of the most important chapters, if it's not the MOST important!)
