Alright my peoples, what's cracking! Ali's driving past a Burger King right now apparently, and she won't get me those crown things they give you! I can see Edward in those, can't you? Lol, okay... So anyway, I have my guinea pig on my stomach while I'm typing this, so hopefully she'll bring you guys a long chapter?Chapter 40: Cold
Bella's POV

"Edward,"

"Bella."

"It's broken."

"No it's not. It's sparkly, see?" He said, turning on the lava lamp. Apparently, Alice left it here last year when she came here with Jasper to check up on the place. What we are doing? I don't know. But I could tell you that this island was cold. And I mean seriously, I'm wearing Edward's sweatshirt and his jacket over my 2 shirts.

Yeah I know, making me look really puffy. But it was really fun to just jump randomly and then bounce back up. You should try it sometime. Yeah, and were back to the talking to myself again! Charming, isn't it?

"Yes. Pink and sparkly." I laughed, watching as the dark pink goo moved around into different shapes. Edward's stare caught my attention as I turned to look out the window, to see it snowing. Snowing.

That reminds me. What's even the month! "Uh Edward, what's the month?"

"December 17th. Why?"

"No reason. I just wanted to know." I said, walking around the room. I stared at the picture on the wall for a moment, until it dropped down suddenly. Edward turned around to stare at the picture, looking at it strangely.

"Did I do that?"

"I don't think so. The nail was loose. See?" He said, picking up the nail that had fallen to the floor. It was bent at an odd shape. He turned it around in his palm, pushing it back the right way and then sticking it into the wall again. Picking up the picture, he put it back up against the wall.

"It's crooked."

"No it's not."

"Yes it is, just look at it!" I laughed out, walking over to him and turning the picture to the left a little bit. We both took a step back, turning our heads to the left. He shook his head, turning towards me and tackling me onto the bed. We bounced on it, just staring at each other.

I raised my eye brows at him as he had a weird look on his face. He copied my facial expression, wrinkling his nose at the exact same time I did. We laughed, rolling of the bed. I made a 'umph' sound when I landed on his chest on the floor.

"Edward," I whined to him. He chuckled. "what can we do!"

"Watch a movie, go outside, do yoga, sleep." He rambled off. I shook my head at him.

"The movie would bore me, it's to cold, why would I do yoga? I'm not a guinea pig. And you don't sleep. Even though I could always try and make you..." I muttered the last part, but apparently he heard it.

"Ah, with the old human talent? I don't think so. That completely drained you last time." He sighed, rolling us over so he was on top of me. He pulled me up, grabbing my hand and walking towards the door.

"It's to cold!" I shrieked, tugging back on his hand. Edward just kept pulling, encouraging me that it wasn't cold out. "Yeah maybe to you!" He grabbed a jacket out of a closet, putting it on me and zippering it up.

He opened the door, dragging me along with him. He was right. It wasn't cold out.

IT WAS FREEZING!

"Edward," I whined, wanting to back into the warm house. The snow had already piled up a bit, it now covering my shoes. A gust of wind came, my hair going whacko around my head. That was until I felt something cold hit me in the back of the jacket.

I turned around slowly, my hands balled in fists with my arms straight out towards the ground. Edward was standing there, a innocent look on his face. I paused, then crouched down, grabbed the snow and making it into a snowball.

His eyes held amusement, that was until I walked over to him. He took a step back, still smiling. "Hi, love."

"Hi Edward, I want you to meet my new best friend!" I said happily, then smashed the snowball on top of his head. I laughed, running away from him, knowing that it was useless. He chuckled, shaking the snow off of his head and was in front of me before I could notice.

I crashed into him, laughing as he shook more of the snow out on my head. I shook my own hair out, feeling the coldness run down my back. I jumped but laughed, now glad that he made me come outside.

We laughed, looking at each other. His fingers caught a stray piece of my hair, tucking it behind me ear. I reached up on my toes, wrapping his arms around his neck. He leaned down, pressing his lips softly to mine. I sighed.

I was perfectly content, until I got whacked in the back with a snowball. We broke apart, turning around to see Emmett with another snowball ready to whack us in the head. "Emmett, do you mind- EMMETT!" I shouted, running over to him. Well more like slow running, since my shoes kept getting stuck in the snow.

He ran just as slow as me, his arms spread out wide with a goofy grin on his face. "Oh for crying out loud Emmett just hug her already!" Alice said in a playful tone as the rest of the family beat Emmett to me.

"That is so not fair!" He shouted as everyone grabbed me in a group hug. It felt as if they were all talking at once, but really it was- okay, maybe it really was all of them talking at the same time.

"Guys, slow down!" I laughed care-free as they all took a unneeded breath. They all started talking again at the same time but I noticed Alice freeze up while staring at Edward. Edward's head slowly turned up towards Alice as she took a step away from the group, a small frown on her face.

They all stopped talking as this happened and broke away, turning there attention to the two vampires. Edward growled as Alice shrugged her shoulders, smiling to herself. "That won't happen," Edward snarled at her, taking a step towards her.

"I've seen that same vision for the past sixteen years Edward, it's going to happen. And you can't stop it." Alice said a little bit to sweetly for Edward's liking.

"Alright guys. What are we fighting over now?" Emmett playfully said, walking in between them to put some space.

"Edward is mad because he knows that Bella is going to be one of us," Alice said brightly with a huge smile. If it was possible, I think she got Edward even madder.

"Really?" Emmett said smiley like an idiot as he picked me up and spun me around. I laughed again, holding on as tightly as I could because if I let go, well... bye-bye Bella.

"No she's not." Edward said after Emmett let me go. I wobbled back and forth until Edward pulled me over towards him. "Why don't you want me to be like you Edward?" I whispered at him. His eyes softened just a little, but his facial expression didn't change at all.

"Because this isn't the life you want to live, Bella." He said, holding onto my shoulders. "You may be half of us already, but you're still human Bella. You need to know that. You don't want this life Bella." He shook his head back and forth as he finished.

"How do you know what I want and what I don't want Edward?" I said angrily at him. He didn't know what I wanted! "So you lied to me then? You said that you would stay with me forever Edward! You know that that isn't possible if I'm still human!" When I finished my eyes had tears streaming down. I noticed that the rest of the family had left somewhere in the forest area.

The tears on my face felt like they instantly turned to a small teardrop ice cube. My face felt freezing cold now, but I didn't care. Edward looked livid but then he sighed, running his hand through his hair.

"Bella-"

"Don't say anything you don't mean Edward. I always knew that I wasn't good enough for you, right from the beginning. I'm sure you'd be a lot happier if you were with... I don't know someone like Tanya." I muttered the last part under my breath. He seemed to hear it. I turned around to walk back into the house, but crashed right into something cold.

Edward wrapped his arms around me, pulling my tightly against him. "Bella, I don't want you becoming one of us, because I know that you can do so much more. When I say that I love you, I truely, honestly mean it. What do I need to do Bella? Tell me, and I'll do it. Because I, Edward Cullen, am unconditionally, and irrevocably in love you you, Isabella Hale. I have, and always will. No matter what Bella. Please believe me." He had tears in his eyes now, but we knew that they would never be able to spill out.

I was full out sobbing by the time he finished. I nodded my head frantically into his chest, taking his words all in. He lifted me up, carrying me inside of the house. He sat us on the bed, taking our boots off and throwing them under the bed. He grabbed a blanket out of the closet and wrapped it around me. He then picked me up, placing me in his lap.

I stared right up at him for I don't know. We were both content like that. I knew that he didn't want me to become like him. But then again, I knew that I wanted to spend the rest of my life with him. He needed to see that I loved him, and I will always. He gently kissed my forehead, just before Alice walked in.

"Edward-"

"Alice you don't need to explain or apologize. You did nothing wrong. Actually, you helped me see that I can't change anything about what is going to happen. I'm the one that should be apologizing to you. So, I'm sorry Ali." He said, smiling softly at her. Her frown grew into a full out grin as she ran over and hugged us both.

"Well I guess Bella should get some sleep, since Emmett has planned something for all of us to do in the morning." Alice said to both of us as we gave her confused looks. "He's putting us on a tv show?" Edward almost shouted. I was almost asleep in his arms until he said that. "Wait what?" My tired voice rasped out. I was probably coming down with a cold now. Thanks Edward.

"He thought that it would break the tension because I told him about what was going to happen when we got here. And look to where that's led us." Alice said, nodding her head towards us two. I rolled my eyes, pulling the blanket up higher and burying my head in Edward's neck.

"Nite Bella," Alice said kissing me on the forehead. A chorus of "Good night!"'s came from downstairs. I groaned out a response as everyone laughed. "Sweet dreams Bella," Edward whispered kissing the top of my head. That's the last thing I remember before falling asleep.
