Some ideas of this chapter were given to me and discussed with me by RoryAceHayden147. Thanks so much! Also, this chapter is sorta short, but I hope to have a longer one out soon! Enjoy! Smiles234
I had finally convinced Edward to start my training. We only had two months, and I wanted to be able to defend myself.
I started humming before Edward could speak, blocking out his questions. "Bella, love, it probably won't even come to a fight. Do we have to start tra-" He stopped in the middle of his sentence. There was a pause, his face slightly confused, before he started talking again. "Hmm… Odd. I can't remember what I was going to say. For a moment, I changed my mind and agreed with you. Oh, well. Anyways, do we have to start training right away?"
I ignored his question and continued humming. I paced around him a few times, still humming. When I was at his back, I jumped and pinned him to the ground.
"Very…good…Bella." He said this through while still struggling to get up. I let him up after thirty seconds.
"Bella, that was impressive."
"Thank you."
"Okay, well, since you got that, does that leave me out of teaching you to fight?" He pulled me into his arms.
"For today." I said this, and then pinned him to the ground again.
"Gotcha," I teased as I stood up.
"Okay, now, Bella? That is not fai-"
Pinned again.
"Okay, are you done now?"
"Yes."
He stepped warily to the side just to be sure. You could hear Emmet's booming laugh from inside the house.
Alice danced outside. You could tell she had exciting news, but was keeping it from Edward, by the look on her face.
"Alice… is it really that important that you need to keep it from me?" Edward complained.
She just danced by, grabbed my hand, and pulled me nearer the forest. I was hoping that she would just tell Edward. My lying hadn't improved much…
"Oh! Oh, drat," she said when we were almost in the forest, and pouted. Edward was behind us in a second.
"Alice, why didn't you say anythi-"
"Can't you keep your nosy mind reading to yourself some days? It ruins all surprises."
"Alice…"
"No! Don't tell her. I was going to, when my concentration slipped for one second. I almost thought I should tell you. I should have expected it though…" She didn't go any further in detail on that, and she was blocking out Edward again.
I leaned into Edward and he fastened his arms around my waist. "Are you going to tell me what's going on?"
"Well…"
"Edward! Come on! Let me do it. I saw it…" She grabbed my hand and pulled me away from Edward.
We were deep inside the forest before Alice slowed to explain.
"Bella, any idea what I saw?"
"No, not really."
"No idea, whatsoever?"
"No."
"Do you want me to tell you?"
"It would be helpful." I was getting a bit annoyed.
"Bella, you have a power."
My eyes widened with shock. I froze.
"Bella? Are you okay?"
"I… I have a power?" I spat out.
