I just realized that I accidentally made the language for this story French. Oops. That would explain all the french reviewers. Je suis très désolée à propos de la bouleversement, mais merci pour la lire tout la même! (hope that wasn't too horrible)

So, onto the disclaimer: I am not Stephenie Meyer, and so one

Of course, I had forgotten about the whole super-speed thing that vampires happened to have.

I had not been stomping away for more than three seconds when Adrian ran in front of me and stopped me.

"Bella, please wait! I'm sorry I hurt you, but please let me make it up to you!"

"I don't need you to make it up to me! Just get out of my way!" I snarled with as much venom as I could muster. I started to stomp off again.

"Well, at least let me help you get out of the forest! You're going in entirely the wrong direction if you want to get out of here."

I stopped. He had a point there.

"Fine. But we are WALKING. I don't care if my hand is broken, I want to move at a normal speed!"

At this point, I could tell that he was trying his hardest not to laugh. However, when it just took just one more glare from me to make him burst into full-blown laughter.

"What is so funny? You think my desire to walk is silly?" I was mad now.

"No! It's your expression!" I narrowed my eyes at him. He attempted to clarify. "You look like you're trying so hard to be angry, but I can tell that you really just want to laugh with me at the bizarreness of the situation! I mean, I am just doing my everyday thing, get myself a nice juicy bear, when all of a sudden I see this girl who just happens to know how to recognize a vampire AND doesn't seem to be freaked out by the fact that she is talking to a member of the undead. And then, of course, there is the fact that I just broke your hand by doing something normal humans do every day."

He looked at me, searching for a smirk. I refused to give in, but I knew it was only a matter of time before I broke.

He started to make faces at me. When he started to do a full-fledged fish face, complete with waving hand fins, I lost it. My anger evaporated, and I laughed so loud the birds flew from the trees.

"What type of self-respecting vampire makes fish faces? You guys are supposed to smile, or sneer, or make some sort of scary expression!"

He grinned at me. It wasn't the crooked smile I had come to expect from him, but it was nice all the same. More than nice. It made me smile, and gave me a nice warm feeling I hadn't felt in a long time. I had forgotten how easy it could be just to smile and joke around.

The walk went by quickly, and soon we were at my car.

"That wasn't so bad, walking normally, huh?" I smiled at him.

That was weird. Smiles didn't usually come so easily to me. The only time I had smiled at all recently had been with Jake, and since he had disappeared, I had felt a cold in my chest, like something was missing. Weird, though- I didn't feel that right now.

"No, I suppose walking normally has its perks, particularly since we were only a half mile away from the parking lot."

He laughed as it dawned on me how incredible convoluted my path had been that afternoon.

I smacked him on the arm, but unfortunately, it was with my hurt hand, and it sent another wave of pain through my hand.

"Whoa there!" He said cheerfully. "If you're going to try and hurt me, at least wear a boxing glove so you don't hurt yourself!"

Stupid indestructible vampire.

"Listen, you are in no shape to drive right now. I'll drive you to the hospital."

"No!" No one was going to drive my car but me, particularly not some guy I had only met half an hour before.

"Listen, I won't take no for an answer!"

Next thing I knew, Adrian had stolen the keys from me.

"Hey!"

"We can do this the hard way, or we can do this the easy way. Either way, I will end in that driver's seat!"

I wouldn't give in so easily. "No!"

"Fine then, hard way it is!"

Next thing I knew, I was strapped into my car, and Adrian was behind the steering wheel, leaving the forest far behind.

"You will not get away with this!" I cried.

He just smiled at me and drove faster.

"We'll see."

Please make me happy and review! I am working for about 12 hours straight tomorrow setting up a bead show, so I would be very happy to come home to lots and lots of nice reviews!
