Adrian's P.O.V

I just had a fight Seth and neither of us won. I tried using my powers to my advantage in a fight for the first time and it worked. Taking away Seth's sight made him pretty vulnerable and gave me a clear opening to his throat. I was just about to attack too, and rid myself of that mangy werewolf who had dared to imprint on the girl I loved, but then I noticed her crouching by the side of the car in the distance, scared.

She couldn't see what we were doing of course, but she could hear us just well. By being distracted, I accidentally gave Seth back his sight and he hit me head on as I lunged at him. I crashed into a tree nearby, but of course the hit impacted the tree more than it did me.

I was angry, and I even scowled and was prepared to launch myself at Seth again, but then I heard Charlotte whimper. I stopped, sensing that it was useless. I wasn't Edward, but I could tell that she was probably more concerned for Seth than for me.

So I ran.

I ran as my legs could carry me (which was fast in itself) and somehow I instinctively ended up back home. That was when I realized that I left the car back in the clearing.

Shit, now I have to go get it unless I want Jacob to be pissed, I thought, and I ran back, luckily finding the car there and in one piece. Jacob had worked hard on the engine so course he didn't want the car just abandoned like a toy. Cars were like toys to us vampires though...

Even while driving home though, I couldn't help but think about Charlotte. I was in love with her. I loved her and I wanted her. I wanted her so badly that unlike Edward, who was reluctant to do so with Bella, I would turn her in a minute if she'd let me. If she became a vampire, then her sight would be hers permanently even without my help.

She would be stronger, and more beautiful and...

But then another part of me went against those thoughts and reminded me that as long as she was human and as long as I was her chance at sight, then she would rely on me. Depend on me...

That thought appealed to me even more. Oh yes, I wanted her to depend on me, to need me. But right now she was pushing herself away from me and from her own sight which she so deserved because she was in love with Seth.

She thinks she is anyway, I thought, but it was false comfort. Charlotte was too smart and sure to make mistakes. She was in love with Seth alright, but I had a feeling that I could change that. I had to change that and make her realize that I was the better one!

It was cruel, but the only way to do that was by using her sight. Oh yes, her sight would draw her to me. In all actuality, who didn't want to see? What blind person didn't want their sight back once they had it? Charlotte was scared of the world now, but I could change that. I could change so many things...

For the first time since becoming a vampire, I was glad for my powers. At the beginning I'd almost resented them and like Carlisle, Rosalie, and Edward at the beginning I would've preferred to die. Things just didn't work out that way though.

But now I've got a chance at something else, I thought excitedly. I've got a chance of finding love and...Charlotte's going to give it to me.

My plan was clear. Coax Charlotte with her sight and get her to love me. I knew she could; she had to!

I didn't go home. Instead I drove the car far out on an abandoned trail and left it there. If any of my family found it, they'd also find a letter that read:

Went for a swim at the bottom of the ocean. That's probably were I am now, but don't worry, I won't drown. ;)

Yeah, I was being comic. That was probably a little harsh to get them involved too, but Alice could see the future and so she might know what I was really up to.

By that time it was morning and I was already headed to Charlotte's house. I wasn't missing out on my chance; not this time.

Whew, done! I know that this was a short chapter, but I also know that some people might not really care about Adrian at this point and just want to get ahead to the good stuff about Seth and Charlotte. That's in the next chapter amigos!

Please tell me what you think :3
