Robert's POV
Kristen and I were finally free from the typhoon of screaming fans, and were walking to a van, ready to go to our next destination; the set of Breaking Dawn.
Today couldn't have been any rainier in Georgia. The sky was almost black with dark rolling clouds as the rain relentlessly came down toward us. Everyone was retreating to the safety of their cars while trying to protect their memorabilia of the day.
I noticed a girl following us as we headed to our van, clutching her stomach protectively from the pellets of cold rain. Again, the dedication of our fans amazed me.
The girl caught my eye from across the street and began to run like mad after us.
It was then I caught a flash of light.
A car was driving to fast down the cramped parking- lot. The driver was aimlessly chattering to her friends, none of her attention on the road, heading straight towards the crazed fan.
Without a moments delay, I sprinted towards the unsuspecting girl and quickly shoved her out of the way with all the force I had. My ego came over me as I saw how far she slid away from me on the pavement. She was a pretty heavy girl, and I had really given her some distance. But then, reality kicked in.
I turned around just in time to see the car only inches away from me; close enough for me to catch the driver's eyes widen in horror.
Next there was pain.
Then… there was nothing.
Edward's POV
My family and I left school an hour early. Alice had predicted that the sun would make an early appearance, and if we stayed, we would all look like human shaped disco balls.
"Thank God we can go home!!!" Boomed Emmett, "Honestly, taking an one-hundred question test is no biggie, but doing it at human pace because your overly infatuated teacher is staring you? That's pure torcher." He moaned as we laughed.
"Don't be such a baby." Rosalie said frowning.
"Aw, don't be jealous babe! You can torcher me any time!"
We all rocked with laughter as Rosalie took a swing at Emmett that would have sent him flying across the parking- lot had he not ducked.
"Ha ha ha." Bella chuckled then sighed. "I really can't wait for the sun to come out…"
She looked beautiful as she stared off into the sky. The brisk wind played with her mahogany hair, as the knee length dark blue dress- that Alice practically forced on her this morning- whipped around her legs.
I was about to kiss her again for about the millionth time today, but something caught my eye.
Two teens, obviously skipping, were about to run across the road in front of a sixteen wheeler. Their judgment of how fast their weak human legs could carry them across the road before truck could hit them was about five seconds off.
One of them chickened out, and stopped before he was in the way of the driver. But the second, rushed in front of the truck, noticing her mistake half a second later.
I ran to the girl, my calculations perfect. I would swoop over and push her out of the way, then run back to my family and have them fake shocked expressions of the girl's narrow escape.
What I didn't calculate was that exactly as I began to push the girl out of harms way, the idiot of a truck driver would panic and accidentally slam his foot on the gas pedal.
I would have easily moved out of the way, but the boy caught a glimpse of me. So I braced myself for impact, hearing Alice shriek at the top of her lungs.
I did not have time to register her apparent vision as I felt the blow of the truck collide with my body, allowing it propel me up across the hood, and topple me over to the side like a rag doll. It didn't hurt.
However, what I absolutely did not calculate in all my existence, was my vision going blurry, and my body freezing in shock, as the sounds of Bella's screams fade off into the distance.
It was then I realized it…
I, Edward Cullen the vampire, was blacking out.
The last of my consciousness left me. Leaving darkness in its place.
