Hello, just to say thank you to all of you! And once again, do read my other stories. I need to know how they are :D I am happy that many of you like the makeover! I shall try and write more, then!
I have to admit, yesterday was a great day for me. It was the first time that I actually feel complete. All these years, it was just me and Renee, refusing to open up to anyone. But right now, I feel eager, wanting to get to know the Cullens and be with them.
Being deep in thought, I had not realized that Renee was busy discussing some matters with Carlisle and Esme. But they came up with a conclusion just then and walked towards me, with the Cullen teens following them.
Instantly, I was on red alert, the grins on Renee, Alice and Emmett's faces were enough to warn me that I might or might not like what they were about to tell me.
"What is it?"
Alice skipped forward and hugged me, "You are staying with us! Isn't that great?"
What?
I turned towards Renee, who gave me a smile and proceeded to explain, "Paris collection, remember? It is the event of the year and it will take half a year for me to get all the collections cleared and assembled. Not to mention the anticipation that the world is paying on this event. So, I am leaving for Paris and I definitely do not want you to be staying by yourself."
Rolling my eyes, I pointed out the obvious fact that I was not a kid.
Funny how that sounds.
Abruptly, Rosalie and Emmett's faces fell, and the others all looked slightly disappointed.
"Does that mean that you don't want to stay with us?" Emmett was using his puppy face on me, and I sighed.
"No, I did not say that. I am just indignant that I am being treated like a – a rebellious teenager or something."
Everyone instantly cleared up and cheered.
I rolled my eyes again but my mouth lifted upwards at the joy that they were showing off shamelessly.
Feeling a presence next to me, I turned to find Edward next to me, staring intently on my face. Being nervous, I asked if there was anything on my face. Chuckling, he shook his head and tucked a strand of hair behind my ear, sending me electric shocks across my face.
"You feel that too, don't you?" Edward murmured into my ears.
I shook slightly and nodded my head.
"Can you tell me what that means?" As his breaths slowly caressed my face, I knew that I could not resist him. Not anymore.
"That we are soul-mates." I breathed out gently, oblivious to the fact that everyone else around us had froze, anticipating what we are going to do next.
As Edward slowly leaned in, I was eagerly awaiting for what is coming. As his lips gently touched mine, I felt that a flame had been ignited within me. A flame that has been soundly sleeping for nearly a millennium.
Edward moaned at the feeling of his tongue on my lower lip asking for entrance. I moved closer to him. When had he ever felt so…good? Edward ran his hand down my back and gently pulled me even closer.
"Edward, shouldn't you show dear Bella around, since she is practically family now." Alice interrupted.
Embarrassed, we pulled apart as the rest of the family smilingly looked on. Renee told us that she had to rush to work and we bid her goodbye. I could tell that she is trying hard not to cry, trying to be brave for me and silently thanked her with all my heart. Edward took my head and I followed him around the house, listening attentively as he introduced to me to the history of every member in the family.
Yes, family.
I have a family.
When we finally reached Edward's room, I was surprised how white the room is. Literally white. The shelves, the bed, all the decorations are white. Turning to Edward, I stared at him with an eyebrow raised.
Soon, he grew self-conscious, "What? Is there something wrong with me?"
I laughed at his expression as he start to panic slightly.
"Nothing, I just don't expect you to be a – a person to like the colour white. One might think that as a vampire who loves to sulk in a corner by himself must be rather gothic or somthing."
He relaxed at my words and rolled his eyes, "You think you are funny."
We could hear the rest of the family chuckling at our conversation and Emmett's voice said, "I told you that she has an awesome sense of humour."
Edward just shrugged and moved on to start his stereo player.
"What song?"
I shrugged, "Anything is fine with me."
A while later, I was found laughing as "Sexyback" rang through the house.
Edward groaned, "Emmett, you changed my CD – again!"
Obviously everyone found this funny, all except for the owner of the stereo system.
"Aww, Eddie is getting flustered!" Emmett called out.
All was getting on Edward's nerve and he jumped out of the window and ran in the direction of forest swiftly. Grinning, I teleported into the forest and obviously, Edward was surprised to find me already at the meadow that I found the day before.
"How – how did you find this place?"
"You are not the only one to explore this forest." Was the only reply I gave him.
Fast as lightning, I climbed up a tree and beckoned for him to follow me. He did, without asking any questions. Sitting on a branch, he looked questioningly at me and I smiled.
"I have a song in mind for you. It is kind of perfect to describe what I feel for you. And I need to tell you that. I have been hurt, not directly, and definitely not by any lover, seeing I never had one. But now, I trust you with my heart and soul. So please take care of me." I whispered softly to Edward, who was listening to me deeply.
Taking a breath, I began to sing my heart out, to this god in front of me. The one who has the key to my heart.
Before I fall too fast
Kiss me quick, but make it last
So I can see how badly this will hurt me
When you say goodbye
Keep it sweet, keep it slow
Let the future pass, and don't let go
But tonight I could fall too soon
Into this beautiful moonlight
But you're so hypnotizing
You've got me laughing while I sing, you've got me smiling in my sleep
And I can see this unraveling
Your love is where I'm falling, but please don't catch me
See this heart won't settle down
Like a child running scared from a clown
I'm terrified of what you do
My stomach screams just when I look at you
Run far away so I can breathe
Even though you're far from suffocating me
I can't set my hopes too high
'Cause every hello ends with a goodbye
But you're so hypnotizing
You've got me laughing while I sing, you've got me smiling in my sleep
And I can see this unraveling
Your love is where I'm falling, but please don't catch me
So now you see why I'm scared
I can't open up my heart without a care
But here I go, it's what I feel
And for the first time in my life I know it's for real
But you're so hypnotizing
You've got me laughing while I sing, you've got me smiling in my sleep
And I can see this unraveling
Your love is where I'm falling so please don't catch me
If this is love, please don't break me
I'm giving up so just catch me
Edward kissed me softly when I finished singing the song.
"I love you, Edward Cullen."
"As I love you, Isabella Swan," He pulled me into his arm, "So is it my turn now?"
"You wrote a song for me."
"Yes, since twenty years ago. That was the time that I used to believe that I'll still find my love. Then I gave up. Till I met you now."
Staring deeply into his eyes, I gave him the go-ahead, excited to listen to what he had to sing for me.
You are the answer to my prayers,
When I used to believe in love.
You are the angel God sent to me,
I was lonely till you appeared in front of me.
With the smile that touched my heart,
With the love that I am yearning.
Now that I'm with you
I wonder how I had lived without you in my life before
You are my life, my destiny
You are my angel, and I love you so
You mean everything to me
So don't you ever leave
If you should ever, ever go away
The will be lonely tears to cry
Even though I have to leave them inside
Inside of my heart
If you should ever, ever go away
The sun above will never shine again
The sky will not be painted blue again
Not for me
So hold me close, and never let go
And say that our love will always last
You are my angel, and I love you so
You mean everything to me
So don't you ever leave
(I wrote this song with strong reference to the song "You mean everything to me" by Neil Sedeka, but I edited it. The previous song is "Catch me" by Demi Lovato. Cheers.)
When he finished the song, I was speechless. My dream has come true after centuries of waiting. I finally tasted the sweetness of love, to have someone there next to me, to have someone that I can protect and care for.
Edward Cullen. I promise. I promise you that I would love you, spoil you, fill you with care and concern and to stick with you no matter what happens. I would kill whoever who threaten our relationship.
I love you.
I love you forever and always.
Finally, the chapter is finished! *Clap*
Seriously, can someone please read the note I had posted. It explains clearly why so many chapters were missing. My original chapters are horribly SHORT and DIFFERENT FROM MY CURRENT STYLE. I am improving all my chapters so I am REPLACING them. Obviously it requires sometime. I changed my style while writing the wedding chapter, so I had to jump to Chapter one and start all over, that is why!!
:) Thank you people for reading my stories. 12,000 hits :DDD
