About a three days later

Andrea got out of the car, seeing the green-blue mountainous range that surrounded the back of her new house. The grass smooched under her sneakers with a crunching noise, wet from the morning dew. She sighed and slammed the door shut from her dad's car. "No money" was the reason why they moved out here. After her father died, she and mother found out that he was living a double life, gambling all their money, leaving them in debt.

Forks, this god-forsaken town with no warm sun and wet weathers, was the closest thing Vanessa, Andrea's mother, could afford. Luckily for them, Vanessa got a job as a nurse in the town's hospital. Going to college did her good.

Seattle had been her home all her life and living in a town less than half the size of her beloved city had her see how sad her family was in ruins. She suddenly regretted begging her parent to but her the latest iPod, cell phone, or what's "in" in fashion.

"Don't put that face, Andrea," said Vanessa. "Smile! Look on the bright side. All this fresh air will do good for your health, not like that polluted city."

Andrea rolled her eyes. "I hope we got cable," she mumbled under her breath.

"Andrea, sweetie, when you're done talking to yourself, will you help me carry bags inside. They moving truck will be here soon, so it's best to do this now before they get here," said her mom opening the front door.

Andrea nodded as she carried one of the bags, following her mom inside. As she stepped inside, there was first a musky smell to the place. The furniture was left by the former owners and they weren't as lavish as the ones in her old apartment. They were a plain beige leather and looked worn out. There was a table furniture that matched with the couches, as well. She sighed thinking that this was going to be her new home. All she needed was this place to be haunted to make it perfectly bad. "I'm going to put this in my room," shouted Andrea as she walked up the creaky steps. She looked to her right and noticed a room at the end of the hall.

"Too big for me," she said under her breath. To her left was another bedroom and a bathroom beside it. "Must be mine." She walked inside and found a twin bed with no sheets on along side a small desk. Andrea took a deep breath and dropped her bag onto the bed. She dug inside it and smiled as she reached a frame. It had a golden decoration around it. She took it out and laughed at the picture. It was her and her best friend. They had ice cream around their mouths, their arms wrapped around each other. Her name was Alexis Watson, but everyone called her Lexi for short. Was.

Her death had a huge impact in Andrea's life. Their smile was so sharp, eyes glistening without a care in the world. Maybe it was because they were happy together. No family, no high school drama, nothing and no one, but them. Lexi's life was anything, but pleasant. The only thing she had was Andrea to look after her. A hit and run accident. It's been two years since her death and it still felt like yesterday.

"Andrea! Come help me organize this kitchen! The moving truck is here!" yelled Vanessa down stairs. Andrea rolled her eyes taking one last glimpse at the smiling faces.

A day later

Andrea scowled to herself. She couldn't take it being inside the house. Her mom was at work. Said that she needed to start working as soon as possible. School didn't start until Monday, so she had nothing else to do. She didn't have much friends back in Seattle to call. After the death of her best friend, she became very reserved and pretty much no longer had a social life.

She marched into the woods behind her house. Trees towered over her that they seemed to be a thousand feet high. An endless maze that stretched for miles. Anyone could get lost in here. She picked up a couple of pebbles and threw them on the floor just in case she drifted off too far. She even made indentations on the trees for guidance. Andrea suddenly stopped hearing a twig snapping behind her. She was too frightened to turn around.

The footsteps grew closer and suddenly she heard a deep growling breath that no human can make. Her eyes widened in fear as a wet nose touched her face. That gave her the notion to jump and turn around. She was horrified to see a huge wolf standing behind her. He was almost as big as a horse. He had a menacing face like all ferocious animals. His dark red-brown fur made it look more intimate, but his eyes. His eyes, or at least she thought it was male, looked just as shocked as she was. They were warm brown that would make someone sigh from the intensity. She almost wanted to go to him. It felt like a force drawing her to him.

Andrea blinked and realized that he hadn't. He kept staring at her with a more stronger sense of emotion. Almost as if he were frightened now that he crossed paths with her. Her heart thumped as he took a step forward. That only made her move back. A couple steps forwards and backwards then Andrea found herself pressed against a tree. She shook in fear as he leaned towards her, sniffing her to her shock.

"God, please, help me," she whispered. The wolf cocked his head back. "You understand me?" she asked. He only stared at her. He growled making her jump. His face quickly contorted in a snarl. Andrea covered her face as his mouth widened as if to bite her, but he, in a flash, was running from where he came from. Andrea panted heavily, realizing that she hadn't been breathing for a while.

"What the hell was that about?"

First day of school after winter break

Lexi woke up gasping for air. She had that dream again, but she felt nothing but pain this time. It felt so real it scared her. She jumped feeling soft kisses on her shoulder. She sighed with a smile. "What time is it?" she asked. She knew that they had to go to school today.

"Six," said Edward into her neck, making her giggle. "You had that dream again?"

Lexi got quiet and nodded. "It felt so real," she whispered.

Edward sighed and kissed her. "I'm sorry."

Lexi shook her head. "You always say that. Why?" Edward sighed. If you only knew, you'd hate me, he thought. Lexi grabbed his hand and turned around, snuggling against his hard body. Lexi laughed. "I don't think vampires are meant for cuddling."

"I try to," he said.

Lexi froze at his comment. "Edward, I didn't mean it that way," she said, looking at him.

"I know, Lexi," he said, smiling.

"If you could choose to be a vampires or human, which would you choose?" she asked, tracing her finger up and down his chest.

He sighed. "I would pick being human in a heart beat if I had a chance, but I've adapted to this life that I don't think I can go back. When you're first made it's like you got your first taste of meth and then the blood! It's nothing like any human will know, but..."

"What?" asked Lexi.

Edward sighed. "The thirst is unquenchable, especially for a new born. After a while, you get used to it," he said, staring at her.

Lexi saw his eyes sudden change to a dark black. She closed her eyes as his hand moved up and down her neck. "Edward," she gasped as his lips replaced his hand.

"You're my meth, Lexi," he said. Before he could take a bite, Lexi moved away. Edward looked at her in confusion.

Lexi cupped his face caressing it. "I don't want to be your drug, Edward. Addiction is bad. It destroys your life. I don't want to be that drug. I want to be your antidote. Your rehab," she said.

He gave a her a sad smile. "Thank you," he whispered.

Lexi grinned. "Don't worry, Edward. I'll let you take a bite once in a while, especially when were having sex," she whispered, nibbling on his earlobe.

Edward groaned. "Damn it. Come on. We're going to be late to school."

"I'm not complaining," she smirked. She shrieked as Edward picked her up. "Put me down, Edward!" she demanded, through her laugh.

"I will, but first I almost forgot to give you something," he said.

Lexi smiled. "For me? What is it?" she asked.

He chuckled. "It's not much, but I know it's important for you," he said. Edward put her down the chair by the dresser. He opened the drawer. She looked at him curiously as he placed the gift on her lap. "Open it," he encouraged.

Lexi smiled. She unwrapped it quickly like a child on Christmas morning. She gasped as the gift revealed itself to be the same music box that she remember since she was a little girl. "Edward," she chocked, looking at him.

"It was supposed to be a Christmas present, but I forgot to give it to you. You are very distracting," he said.

Lexi laughed. "Thank you so much," she said, wrapping her hands around him. "It's the best thing I could ask for. Well, other than being your wife, of course."

"There's something else."

"More! Oh, Edward, you spoil me!" she teased.

Edward chuckled. "Here," he said, pulling out a couple of papers.

"What is it?" she asked.

"You know a Carol Reese," he asked.

Lexi nodded. "She was my mom's mom."

"She past away just recently before your mother. She had a will and left you everything. I think she didn't have time to change it. Your father took the money and property, claiming that you were underage, but after you and your mother died, he spent everything and now all he can afford now it that antique shop. That what you have in your hands, Lexi, is the bank account under your name that Carol left you. No one can touch it but you. Your father tried to, but couldn't. Lexi, your grandparents were rich. When you Carlisle and Esme brought you into the family, they filled out some papers stating you were alive and were thought to be dead."

Lexi shook her head. "I didn't know they were rich."

"I think your mom ran away with your father and they disowned her, but once they found out about you, they left you with everything," he explained.

"Is that why he killed her?" she asked, sadly.

Edward sighed. "It could have been a reason."

Lexi let out a sob. "I don't want this money, Edward, but I don't want him to get it either."

"It's OK, Lexi. You don't have to touch it. I just wanted to inform you of the situation," he said, stroking her hair.

"You're so good to me," she whispered, pressing her forehead against his.

"No, Lexi, you are the one who's good to me."

"I love you."

Edward kissed her. "I love you, too." Lexi gasped as he picked her up again. "Let's get you ready for school."

Lexi glared at him. "You enjoy torturing me, don't you?"
