Chapter 2 Strange Connection

No way! Nuh-uh! Not at all! NO!!NEVER!!!

"Sue says it's gonna be good enough to feed all of us in the future. You will be able to do it easily", he said nonchalantly.

Im-freaking-possible!!! Is he mentally disabled or something?!

"Ummm... I'm not hungry anymore so I'm gonna go...", I said lamely because seriously if I said any of my thoughts aloud, lord knows who will bury me after that! Jacob or Billy.....shudders!

The whole day I spent in my room, crying. I was sad and angry. Sad because this was not what I or even my parents had planned for my future, and that now I had to do something that will hurt my parents, wherever they are, and that there was no way I could say no to this or Billy. Angry because there was no way out of my hell of a life. Because Billy was making me do something that he knows I would never ever do!

The whole day neither Billy nor Jacob disturbed me for which I was grateful. I really didn't wanna be near them when I wanted to kill him or even Jacob because I know he would support his dad in this. Like father like son.

It was dark outside and I didn't know what time it was but I needed to get out of here. Soon. But how? Billy would never allow that. That's when it clicked. I could use the window. It's not like this house is two storey or something. I'll just have to cross the window and I'll be free. Well, for a time being. Neither would Billy nor Jacob would know about it if I kept quiet.

I moved over to my bedroom window which right now had a sight of the dark forest. Where will I go? It doesn't matter! I have to get out of here for some time and I have to do it now. Carefully I crossed my leg over the window and repeated the same thing with the other leg. I was out of the house. I was finally out of the hell hole! I started walking slowly towards the forest, looking around to check if someone was around and would catch me because surely if someone did, then the news will go to Billy in seconds and I'll be dead. Literally this time.

I didn't know where I was headed to, but I knew one thing for sure that I needed to get outta here! I started walking into the forest which was really dark and dense. I walked and walked, getting deeper and deeper every time that I took a step forward. I stopped after a while, realizing that I was, actually, very deep into the forest by now. But I was just too busy being relaxed about the fact that I was free. Free. Free to do anything, go anywhere or say anything. I wasn't under the clutches of Billy and his rules, or even Jacob and his insults. I smiled, for the very first time in my life after my parents' death, and started walking again. Carefully of course because right now I didn't need me killing myself by tripping. It was quite hard to do so though because of the darkness that was all around me, but somehow, luckily, I made it to an opened space. It was a very beautiful meadow. It was lit by the moonlight and looked really serene. I couldn't see much details because of it being the night time right now but I did notice some of its beauty that I could, in the moonlight. The light breeze swayed the grass and made it look like a scene from a romantic movie. I sat down in the middle, crossing my legs beneath me and leaning on my hands behind me and faced the sky. I closed my eyes and concentrated on feeling the wind blow my hair on my face. It made me feel so light and happy, like my life wasn't what it was. Like there were no worries. Like I had no one waiting for me at home, probably with a baseball bat. Like I had a perfect and happy life.

I don't know how long I just sat there like that, with a smile on my face, but when I felt something move past me I snapped my eyes open and looked around frantically, searching for an animal or something. There was nothing out-of-place but I knew what I felt was real. It had felt like something had moved very fast around me. When I looked around again just to make sure there was nothing and I was safe but when I couldn't find anything, I turned back around and saw it. Or rather I saw him. He was standing mere feet away from me, still as stone and confused look on his face. His face. It was like nothing I have ever seen, or imagined or dreamed of. He looked like he was made out of the most beautiful and pale stone in the world, a pagan god of beauty. His features were pale and perfect. His eyes, well I couldn't see the exact color of them but they looked black. His nose was perfect. His lips were perfect. Everything about him screamed 'perfect'. Even his gorgeous hair. His bronze hair was swaying lightly in the wind and looked so perfectly messed that I had a sudden urge to touch it. To run my hands through them and feel the texture of them. This feeling, this urge, should've shocked the hell out of me because I never felt these things for any guy and the only guys I had ever seen were Billy and Jacob and his friends, but I could care less about it right now when something like him was standing in front of me. His expression changed from confusion to concentration to frustration to confusion again.

I was probably ogling him for a long time, when he spoke. His voice was the most amazing voice ever. Silky and smooth as velvet and perfectly articulate, "Ummm... are you.... lost?"

I came out of my daze and blinked. For a moment, I really didn't believe this to be real but then again, he was just too perfect to even dream of. Especially for me, who only have nightmares. Oh shit! I forgot what he said!

"Err..what?", I asked in a shamefully throaty voice. Way to make the first impression dumbo! He must be thinking what kind of a freak I am!

"Are you lost?", he asked again. God his voice is so distracting and swoony! Wait....swoony? I am a freak! And stop talking in your mind and answer him! Jesus, I'm so embarrassing!

"Ummm.....", I cleared my throat and tried my very best to reply coherently and sensibly. "Yeah...kind of....I was just actually wandering and stumbled upon this place...", I replied but this time in a not-so-embarrassing way.

"Well don't you think it's a bit dangerous to wander in the forest at night?", he asked, taking a cautious step forward. Wow, he cares about me! Shut up, Bella! He's just being polite! Stop swooning on his politeness!

I laughed nervously, because seriously what could I tell him? So I spinned the bottle in his direction and asked him instead, "What are you doing here?"

He was looking at me so intensely, I had to look away. Then he replied, "My house is very near and I come here often. Besides I'm stronger than you and I can fight off any trouble easily unlike you, I'm sure. But you still didn't answer my question."

He was looking at me like he was seeing my soul. When I didn't answer, he stepped closer. He was so close that if I reached, I could touch him. I still didn't answer. I couldn't. he came closer without breaking my gaze. Now he was so close that I could smell him, and his smell was-just like him-perfect. It was intoxicating and so amazing that I wanted to move closer and just bathe in it. Man, these thoughts are scaring me! But who cares.... And that's exactly what I did. Apart from bathing and all. Without even thinking , I moved closer to him. Mmmm....he smells mouth-watering! Now we were so close that our bodies were almost touching. Both of us were breathing deeply. He was still staring at me with that intense look that I was.....dazzled.

"Why are you here?", he asked again, breathily.

Without thinking I said, "I ran off from home. My foster dad wanted me to be bar dancer to feed the family and I obviously don't wanna do it, so I ran off."

Suddenly his expression and posture changed and a very livid look replaced the intense one. He stepped back and looked like he was about to kill someone. His fists were balled into tight fists and his knuckles became paler, if that was even possible. His jaw was set and he was glaring at the floor between us and his nostrils were flared. I could hear a deep growl in his chest and was shocked as hell. He looked deadly and dangerous but I wasn't scared of him. I was confused and worried. I suddenly wanted to comfort him but I don't know why.....so I took a step towards him and closed the distance between us. I reached my right hand and touched his face but almost immediately jerked my hand back. Not because he was ice cold or that his skin was impossibly smooth but hard as stone. No. because I felt an electric current pass through me when I touched him. A very good kind of electric current though. I looked at my hand in confusion and shock then back at him, only to find him looking at me with the same look. Did he feel that too? I don't think so...but then why would he look at me like that? Especially when just milliseconds ago he looked like he was about to kill someone.....hmmm...

Just to see if I wasn't dreaming or imagining things, I reached for his face again and cupped his cheek with my right hand. Yes. It's not me imagining things and it was real. Very real. I cupped his other side of face with my left hand and still felt the same thing. It felt so good that I didn't ever want to take my hands off of him. This thought was confusing but right now the only thing that I could feel, was him. He closed his eyes and sighed in contentment. I don't why I was even touching him, why I was holding a stranger's face but it felt good. It felt...right. As if this was why my hands even existed. To hold him and comfort him.

EPOV

We were content and peaceful. It felt like as if this was not our first meeting, like we have known each other for forever. Well, atleast that part was true for me. I have known her for a long period of time which felt forever to me.

You don't know how long I've waited for you Bella..... I sighed.

see you in the next chapter!:)
