Chapter Five-The Final Surprise
We were on a beach. I watched Luke as he put the headlights on bright, put a CD in the player and turned it up loud, unrolled the windows, and helped me out. I was still dumfounded until he pulled me up close. Then it hit me like a ton of bricks.
"Luke!" I exclaimed, "I can't! You can't make me!"
"Oh Bella, don't be silly. Of course you will." He laughed, "And remember, it is all in the leading."
"Ok, fine. But only because no one else will see and because I love you so much."
"Thank You," he cooed sweetly, as he spun me around to the music. I squealed and he caught me in his arms. He then gently pushed me into a standing position, still holding my hand tightly. We danced for what felt like eternity and I was perfectly content. It seemed he had made the perfect mix CD and had planned this all from the beginning. There were slow songs, up-beat songs, love songs, and hate songs but they were all perfect for us. Just perfect.
After the CD played through about three times, we went to sit on a fallen tree on the edge of the woods, hands still entwined. I rested, safe in his arms. He hummed a sweet, soft melody to me and I felt myself dozing off.
Then I heard a sharp crunch nearby. Luke tensed, and I looked up at him with wide eyes. There was another snap, this time accompanied by a low moaning. It sounded like an animal in pain. I wanted to think it was just the wind, but I honestly doubted it was. Luke's tightened his arms around me, and slowly pulled us both into a standing position. Then we heard a hissing noise and a growling sound. We backed down the beach to the water line, then started running back to the car.
My foot caught on a piece of driftwood sticking up from the beach. I tripped and threw my hands out instinctively, cutting them on the sharp rocks of the beach. Luke skidded to a halt and raced back to me, kneeling down to help me up.
Luke was inspecting my hands when a rock clattered down the beach towards us. I jerked my head up to look at Luke, and my fear was mirrored in his eyes. He stood in front of me protectively, and we heard a growl. He jerked around and swept me up in a hug quickly, mashing his lips against mine in a good-bye kiss. His lips were soft and gentle, yet they had a rough edge to them. He put me down and turned forward again.
"I love you Bella, don't ever forget that." He whispered.
"I love you too Luke," I whispered back with tears burning my eyes. I took a deep breath, and held back the scream that was building in my throat. I heard the growl get louder, and then a blinding impact hit us from the side. I knew it was over, and was happy that I at least got to die with the love of my life. I felt a burning sensation in my throat and darkness lapping at me.
"Goodbye Lucas, I love you," I whispered.
"Bye Isabella, I love you too. See you in the afterlife," he whispered back, his voice weaker than mine. As I let the darkness wash over me, I heard something like a rock being torn apart and a strange screaming noise that was cut off. I then knew it was over, and I reached for Luke's hand. He squeezed it gently and I let myself go. I relaxed, knowing it was over and we were dead.
