A.N. So...OMG! Hey! I know. It's been like a year. See, the thing is...I ran out of ideas. Well, not really. I just ran out of motivation. But here I am again! And I wrote out a whole list of ideas! I'm not sure how many of them I'll actually do before I give up again (and this time for good), but for now, I'll get to hopefully at least 25.
Thanks for sticking with me! Enjoy, my lovelies!

Death 19: Total Eclipse of Your Life
Our dearly beloveds, we are gathered here today to witness Vampire Edward and plain ol' Bella watch the sun shimmer crystalline across the deep blue ocean. (AKA, see an eclipse by the sea shore)
Today, it was not a lovey-dovey moment. It was just a moment, but it was still nice.
Edward sighed contentedly. "Oh, Bella. Think we'll see Candy Island?" His voice was hopeful.
Bella pulled back slightly. "Uh...Candy Island?"
Edward pulled back, surprised. "Flapjack! Flapjack, Bella. Flapjack."
"Okay, just because you keep repeating the word doesn't mean I know what it is any more than I did."
"Marvolous Misadventures of Flapjack! A cartoon about their quest to Candy Island."
"...right. Can we just go back to looking at the ocean? I hope I see a unicorn." Bella stared back wistfully at the shoreline, waiting.
Edward shook his head. Under his breath he muttered, "And to think, I thought we had things in common. Pfft."
"What?"
"Nothing."
"Oh, look! An eclipse!"
Gasp! "Just like me! Bye-bye, Jacob!"
"What? You sure are weird today, Edward. Now, get out your box with a hole in it."
Edward snorted. "Right. Whatever."
Bella looked up at Edward, her eyes tight. "You can't look – "
"I'm a vampire, Bella. I'll be fine."
"You're in the sun right now. Sparkling. That is not very vampiric, so I don't think those rules still apply."
Edward didn't say anything. Just watched as the moon inched closer and closer...
"No, Edward!" Bella cried, her voice muffled but her eclipse watcher. "It'll fry your brain!"
"No, Bella. It'll be like Heroes. Peter Petrelli, here I come!"
Bella could practically hear the moon shifting its gears to cover the sun. Once it was in place, Bella sighed at its magnificence.
Beautiful.
But then, Bella heard something.
Popping.
"Edward, are you eating rice crispies? I want – !" Bella turned, smiling brightly at him. That was when she noticed. " – some," she finished, deflated.
Those snapcracklePOPS! she thought she heard weren't any breakfast cereal. It was Edward. Edward and his brain. His brain being fried.
With a startled look on his face, a deceased Edward fell onto the ground, sunlight starting to grow on his face.
Bella sat for a moment or two, staring at all and none. Without a word, she left the cliff.
Smirking, she sneered, "Jessica/Niki, here I come."
