BPOV
I had been wandering for ever in the dripping forest, I was cold and my hair was plastered to my head, soaked through with rain. All I wanted to do was curl up in my warm bed and go to sleep. I pushed through another clump of ferns and tripped again, hitting the ground with a painful thump. Angrily I pushed myself back up from the ground and brushed the dirt of my knees…my hands were numb. Why did Edward have to show up? Edward and his frighteningly beautiful existence. I had been mulling over him for the past hours since our encounter and I had come to the conclusion that Edward was not human…Edward was something indescribable.
The problem was that I couldn't come up with a logical explanation. All that came to mind was Peter Parker and Super man Quotes...'Faster than a speeding bullet' entered my thoughts frequently. I shook my head at my own stupidity.
"Stupid Edward Cullen." I muttered.
I stumbled over a fallen tree but managed to catch myself by reaching out and grabbing a small shrub. The shrub was covered in thorns and I pulled my hand back quickly gasping in the process. As I looked closely at my hand trying to remove a thorn I heard a loud thud not too far from where I stood. I slowly looked up, a single raindrop rolled across my face. I forgot about my hand and squinted through the darkness to see what was suddenly standing in front of me. My heart raced and my throat tightened. Could it be Edward…
"Edward" I managed to squeak. My voice sounded tiny and juvenile.
He didn't speak, he simply took three careful steps in my direction. I stood my ground. His beautiful face looked confused.
"You're not running." His voice was musical and calm, not how I imagined it would be.
"Should I be?" I wanted to run. I wanted so badly to run away from him yet I wanted to stay. My mind was at war with itself. I waited for him to respond. He was wording his answers very carefully.
"You should." I started shaking. He took a deep breath and his face tightened. I strained to see his eyes. They looked even blacker in the darkness. "I'm sorry."
He said it so quietly that I almost didn't hear him. I took a deep breathe and asked the question I had been dying to ask. "What are you?" He looked past me, into the darkness. He seemed like he was listening to something, something distant.
"It's not important Bella." I didn't know what to say, I opened my mouth but nothing came out. Out of nowhere I heard a voice calling my name.
"Bella! Bella Where are you?" I spun around to face the direction of the voice.
"I'm here!!!" I screamed back.
"I have to go." Edward said sternly.
"Why are you here?" I demanded. But he ignored me. He turned on his heels and vanished into the darkness.
