Chapter 7

Curiosity

I ran toward's Jacob's tiny cottage, that was right behind our house. He was supposed to be meeting Abi in 20 minutes and he was not even dressed yet. Either I was going to dress him myself, or he was going to get some serious vampire butt- whooping. He can not just blow her off like that, if he was trying to. Jake has been moping around ever since Edward got home from talking to Richie.

Edward had stayed behind at Carlisle's office to ask Richie some questions. He said he would just catch a ride with Carlisle, and for us to go ahead home. Ever since he got home, he hasn't been that happy. Even Edward's kissing was not as good as usual. There was just not that much love put into them.

I had asked him, "Edward. What's wrong? You seem unhappy."

"Love, it's nothing. Now, come on lets go upstairs." He replied. His eye's were black and his tone was too tense.

Something was wrong, but why wouldn't he tell me?

I barged into Jacob's house, without a knock. And I wish I would have because he was standing there, naked. I covered my eye's and walked out of the house.

"Whoa. Sorry Jake! Should've knocked!" I yelled before I started running.

I had a mental picture in my head that Jake was utterally embarased and that he couldn't look me in the eye's anymore.

I was surprised to see Edward there waiting for me at the entrance to our house.

He was smirking again and I was happy to see that he was happy again.

"Bella, love! I have to tell you something that Richard told me." Edward said while running to meet me. "But first you deserve to have a passionate kiss."

His index finger traced my lips and then his hard, wet, lovable lips, were on mine. This kiss was much more passionate from the one he gave me after he got back from seeing Richard.

I tried to focus harder, and be more passionate. But it was so hard comparing to his kiss. But once again, I was trapped in my fantasy land.

This fantasy was with Edward and I kissing by a river. Edward was not human, and we were both vampire's. No one else out of our family was there. The setting was perfect; the beautiful tall, green trees, the calm and smooth river, and best of all quietness. Edward began to unbutton my purple, long sleeve dress shirt and I did the same on his blue dress shirt. I finished before him and I pulled myself even closer toward's him and closed my eye's. But something was different, his scent was so much different, like if he was human, it would have matched perfectly. I kept my eye's shut trying to not think about the scent. This was so revolting! I could not focus at all. So, I told myself to open my eye's to see what was going on. I gasped at the sight of Edward. He was....was.....was human! How could this be? Then Esme, Carlisle, Renesme and the rest of the family entered my fantasy. They were also human. But all of a sudden, Richie and Abi entered my fantasy and they were vampire's. They lunged toward's Renesme and Jacob, but I leapt in a protective crouch in front of them. The vampire's stopped abruptly and started hissing, and then looked at Edward and darted toward's him. I grabbed Abi, and Richard, and pinned them to a tree. They pleaded for me to let them go but I didn't. The fantasy then ended.

I gasped at the last scenery in my fantasy, Edward was down. He laid there not moving, and everybody surrounded him, and then glared at me. I gasped again.

I opened my eye's to see a frozen Edward. I was wondering why he was like that, and then I forgot that my protective shield was off.

"Bella, what was that?" He asked while staring deep into my eye's.

Edward, I've been having fantasies while you kiss me. And the last two times we had a fancy kiss, I've been having them. I don't know what it mean's. But I'm scared. I thought toward's him. I thought because I didn't want anyone else to hear about my fantasies besides Edward or Alice.

Who would have ever thought that a vampire would be scared.

Edward didn't reply for a few second's.

"Come on, love. We have to talk to Carlisle about this." Edward replyed. He tugged at my arm. But I didn't let myself go with him. I did not want to go with him. "What's Wrong?"

"Edward, I don't want anybody to know!" I squeaked. "Why does it matter anyway's?"

"Because vampire's don't have fantasies. Carlisle, he probably know's why."

"Oh! That make's sense. Can you just wait til' Jacob gets back from his date, please. I need to go now. So, I will talk to you later. Can you tell Renesme to call Richie and just say that women have hormone's, or that she had an adrenaline rush or something like that." I asked while walking toward's Jake's cabin.

"Sure. But we have to find out, Bella. Okay?" Edward asked in his unresistable, lovable tone.

"Yes, dear. See you later! I have to pick an outfit out for Jake." I blew him a kiss, and stalked off to his cabin.

Edward was right. I shouldn't have them, but why was I having them? Those fantasies seemed so real, so vivid. It was hard for me to believe that those fantasies weren't real.

I knocked on Jake's cabin, I made sure this time because I didn't want to see him naked.

"Come in, Bella. I am dressed now." Jake said, I heard a small giggle coming from him. So, I take it won't be awkward for him to see me. But I'm the one with that image, that wouldn't go away.

I opened the door and walked to his small room.

"Hey Jake." I said while entering his tiny room. "I will find you a set of clothes for you're date tonight."

"No need, Bells!" He said while grinning that huge grin. "Alice had already stopped by. And! She even did my hair. She cut it for me, do you like?"

"Oh! Geez. She is a quick one. And I love you're haircut. Do you know why she picked out you're outfit?" I asked curiously.

"I take it that she had a vision on what you were going to dress me in, and so she had to come before you showed up." We both laughed at his remark.

It didn't seem awkward around Jake, surprisingly. "Well, I better be off. Guess what, actually. Rosalie said that you can take he car if you want."

"Sure sure. I've decided to take my old car that I built back in Forks." He said and then he pushed me out of his room and shut the door. "See ya, Bells. No spying tonight! I'm sure Edward will tell you everything once I get home."

"Bye! Have fun!" I yelled and ran back to the house.

I waited impatiently for Jake to get home from his date, because I was curious about what she wanted to tell him so urgently.

"Bella. Settle down. He'll be home soon. You are messing up my concentration on this chess game." Jasper said. He and Emmett were having a chess match for about 30 second's now. That was actually quite along game for them to have.

"Sorry, Jazz." I said and I walked out of the house.

I decided to go find Nessie and see how her phone conversation with Richie went.

I went to her room and she was no where to be seen. I checked Edward's and my room, the basement, the kitchen, our backyard, and yet I had no trace of where she went.

I was panicking, where could she be? That's when Edward showed up beside me and hugged me gently.

"Rosalie took her to see Richie at Carlisle's office." He stated. "Her phone conversation went remarkably well, and surprisingly Richie was not mad at her."

I kissed his hand's that were holding mine around my chest and whispered, "isn't this life perfect?" I didn't need an answer for this statement.

"You meant this existence, and yes it is." He said and he kissed the top of my head and I snuggled in tighter to his grip on me.
