My last and only date had been in the Seventh grade. Brad Harrison had taken me to a movie. He held my hand the whole way through and but he didn't say a word the entire time. We were both too nervous the next day at school to say anything to each other. I thought about what a real date might be like. A date with Edward. A boy who wasn't really a boy, he was a… I couldn't bring myself to admit to what I had read.
I leaned in closer to the mirror examining my face. I wasn't wearing any makeup as usual and my hair hung loosely over my shoulders. I opened the brand new make up bag my mother had given me before I left and pulled out the unopened mascara. I could probably count on my fingers how many times I had used mascara. I carefully raised the brush to my eye lashes and gently stroked it on. I leaned back and examined my self. My eyes did look nicer…bigger almost...
Its probably a waste of time anyways, I thought bitterly, he's not going to notice my eyes after he's killed me. Killed me. I think he's going to kill me but I'm still going out with him! What is wrong with me! I should be running in the opposite direction! But I couldn't make myself do that. I wanted to believe he wouldn't hurt me. I forced myself to believe that he wouldn't hurt me.
I wasn't one to think twice about what I put on in the morning but I suddenly found myself thinking over my clothing choice. My entire wardrobe screamed plain. Plain T-shirts and sweaters, and jeans. Edward was so unbelievably gorgeous no matter what he wore. I had to at least make an effort. I finally settled on a pair of dark jeans and a green knit sweater I had never worn. It seemed too girly to me but it did look nice. I went downstairs and sat in the kitchen table. It was 5:45pm. I just didn't want to tell Charlie what I was really doing tonight. I had told him I was going out with a friend… He had nodded and gone back to watching the game.
I sat silently in the kitchen. The dull sounds of the TV echoed in through the door. I sighed and brushed my hair out of my eyes. There was a pen and a pad of paper in the middle of the table, I snatched it up and began to scribble absent mindedly. My mind was busy thinking of Edward. What he was. If he would admit to it.
I kept trying to form the word in my head. I couldn't. I decided Id write it. I ripped off a fresh piece of paper and set my hand on it. I took a deep breath and began to write. V. My hand started shaking. V A M P I R E. I mouthed the word silently to myself. There! I did it! I thought smugly. Edward is a vampire. I went over the myths that I had read online.
At 6:00pm I was already growing impatient. But as if on cue, at 6:01pm Edwards shiny Volvo slid expertly into my driveway. My heart beat fluttered erratically. This is a bad idea, I told myself. I shouldn't be doing this. But I got up and headed for the door anyways. I yelled goodbye to Charlie and stepped out into the cool air.
The full moon lit up the driveway and I took carefully planned foot steps towards his car. With each crunch of the gravel I was regretting agreeing to his plans. I thought about turning back. I knew what he was. I knew what he could do to me. What he would do to me. I was suddenly very afraid. Edward got out of the car and walked slowly around to the passenger side. I froze instantly. My heart felt like it was going to jump out of my chest.
Was he going to kill me here…right now, in my drive way? "Hello." His voice was calm, and very attractive. He smiled a heart wrenchingly gorgeous smile and opened the passenger side door. He extended one cold hand to me. You are so pathetic! I yelled at myself in my head. He's just being polite! I hesitantly took his hand and stepped into the car. He shut the door softly behind me and within an instant he was sitting in the driver's side closing the door.
