We had boarded the plane, and got to our seats. "So, are you going to tell me who you are now?" I whispered, quietly, not wanting to draw any attention to us. We didn't want anyone thinking I was kidnapped, now did we?
This boy, was incredibly cute, thought he looked boyish, younger than I was. Sixteen at the least. He had dark brown hair, slightly shaggy. And, he was from the Volutri, which Edward had briefly told me about before he left.
I had to know who he was, before we got off this plane.
"Alec Volturi. Nice to finally meet you," he said, with a smirk.
Alec. Such a unfitting name for him.
He was so beyond beautiful. It was so unreal. Like, he wasn't even here, and this was all a dream. 'What exactly are you doing with them?" I could tell that he knew what I meant because he smiled, and shrugged. "I guess its what I can do for them. They've become my family." I raised an eyebrow at him. "So, you're not going to tell me what you can do? Or why I'm here? Or anything?" I whispered this, very lowly, just in case others were listening.
He leaned in, his lips almost touching mine. "What I can do, huh? I can take away your senses. You could be dead, and you wouldn't even know." He smiled, and lightly kissed me, then sat back. Why did he keep kissing me? I didn't understand. "And, as for why you're coming home with me, you'll see when we get there."
My mind was still focusing on that kiss. He had kissed me, again. AGAIN. This wasn't the first time it had happened. And, it definitely wasn't the first time my stomach was filled with butterflies because of this sense-taking boy.
What's going on with you? Huh, Bella? You're falling head over heels for this boy. One that you've only ever met before in your DREAMS. Don't you still love Edward? No. Why not? He was your first love. You said you wanted to be with him forever, Bella. Why do you change your mind now? Alec. Alec, huh? What? You think he's going to drop everything he has and dedicate himself to a human? Have you gone completely mad, women? He's a VAMPIRE, for God's sake. I want him. Why? Because, he kissed you a few times? Because, he's absolutely breath-taking? Shut up. You don't know anything. I know that he doesn't want you, you're just dinner to him. Give it a rest.
I frowned. Why did I always have to be right? Alec looked at me, and tilted his head sideways. He looked so cute like that, like a small puppy who was confused. Then he recovered. "You should go to sleep. We have a long ride ahead of us. And, I did kidnap you from your house just a few hours ago in the middle of the night," he said, very causally.
Oh dear God, I wonder what people were thinking when they heard him say that. What if someone reported it to the Forks Police Station. I could see it now; Chief Swans' daughter kidnapped, last place she was seen, on a plane to Italy with a very strange boy. Yep. Well, I'm just going to go to sleep now, and NOT think about all the embarrassing things that could come out of my mouth.
Alec's POV.
She slept so peaceful, it had made me miss the nights when I could dream again. I never wanted this life, but it was either this or death. What was the difference, really? I still lost everything I had loved, until now of course. Bella, my Bella. Yes, she would know soon. And, I was nervous.
"You don't want me? No. Come back. Please." She was mumbling in her sleep, unintelligible to human ears. I felt my no longer beating heart die in my chest. She was begging for Edward to come back. Was I really that surprised? Yes. Trick question. I had been hoping that she felt the strong pull when I first encountered her in her kitchen. Or the sharp spark when I had kissed her before we left.
But, she acted as if we were barely even friends. And, I hated that I couldn't tell her what was going on. I had been given strict orders to bring her to the Castle with very little information on what was waiting for her there. If I didn't, then the plan would be ruined and there would be no use for me to even bring her there.
It was painful; not letting her know what was going on. Seeing her eyes, so beautiful, full of worry and fear. For herself, I presumed. She groaned lightly in her sleep. "Alec, please.. come here." I arched an eyebrow at her and grinned smugly. So, she was dreaming about me? Hmm. This was going to be a very enjoyable flight.
