A/N – Hey! How was the weekend going? Here's a new chapter! Enjoy reading! Thanks for all the reviews! It feels amazing when you know that someone is actually reading my stuff!

If I owned Twilight, Edward Cullen would surely be real!

CHAPTER 8

"Favorite color?" I asked.

"Um… It's not really fixed…blues and purples…" Edward said, with a smile.

Currently, we were hunting. Edward had come to pick me up from work and in the car, we found that we quite a similar taste in music.

Then, as Alice had predicted, we went hunting. Again, I found that if vampires start feeling thirsty, our iris start turning coal black. While running around and searching for animals, we were getting to know each other better.

"First pet?" He asked.

"Never had one, couldn't afford it…" It always made me awkward, talking about my restrictions, because of money.

We heard a couple of deer by the creak. Without a word, we took off running.

After drinking two of them. I felt full.

Even Edward had two…then he lead me to a large stone, where sat together side by side.

Sitting so close together made me intoxicated because of his scent.

"The silliest thing you have ever done?" I said to distract myself.

"Alice and I once had a race till Paris. If I lost, I had to buy her a Porsche and if she lost, she would stop buying me extra clothes and dress me up. I should have known that after hearing 'Paris' Alice would outrun anyone, as some sort of sale was going on.

And, obviously, I lost by 14.5 seconds. I'm still bearing its consequences…"

I laughed at that. Alice really loved shopping and dressing up people.

"The craziest you have done?" He asked.

"Um…would you believe that as soon as I became a vampire, my first 'kill' was a stray cat?"

This time he laughed.

"A cat? Couldn't you find anything better?" He started laughing again.

"I didn't know what to do…I had no one to guide me…ever…even when I was human" Suddenly, I was missing my parents so much…I wanted to cry but I couldn't. I could feel the tears in my eyes but they just weren't coming out.

"The venom is too thick, to pass through our tear glands… We can't cry…" He said softly.

"How did you know I was about to cry?"

"I have never seen you so sad Bella, please don't ever be sad again… it breaks me to see that way… You need to let go… After a few decades, everyone you know will be gone. Did you know…my parents died when I was 17…I was born in 1901, Chicago. My dad died in the army and my mother died of Spanish influenza… It was when I was minutes away from dying of the same, terrible disease, that Carlisle found me and changed me… I have been this way since… Even though I am very happy staying with them and the whole family, I'm still lonely inside…" He said as he trailed off.

I rested my head on his shoulder and he put his arms around me.

"We have such messed up lives… But we still like to think that we'll have the perfect forever…"

"No Bella, we don't need to think about it…I know we'll have a perfect forever."

~x~

When we reached the Cullen house, Jasper and Emmett were playing a game of monopoly with their own set of complicated rules, while Alice and Rosalie were shopping online.

I could hear Esme and Carlisle talking softly in the study.

"Let's listen to some music…" He said with a tiny smile.

"Sure!"

He lead up the grand staircase, turned left and stopped at the last door on the corridor.

"Are we going to your room?" I asked hesitantly.

"Yeah…" He said, as he pushed open the door.

"Wow" I said stupidly as I entered.

The opposite and adjacent wall was completely glass with a small door, which led outside, straight in the forest. The other wall was completely full of music CD's and a very cool music system in the corner. A flat screen was on the wall, with the door, through which we entered. Beside it was a small bookstand, which was cramped with journals. A comfy bean bay couch was the only seating arrangement there.

There were no curtains but a golden rug covered to whole floor.

"This so cool!" I said genuinely.

"Thanks…"

"Are those journals? You wrote journals all these years?" I was impressed.

"Yeah…it just takes a couple of minutes…helps me pass some time…"

"Can I read some?" I asked, not wanting to intrude his privacy.

"Yeah sure! Go ahead… but those come with a warning. As soon as you read the first page, you'll fall asleep because of being SO bored!" He joked.

For some reason, I found that incredibly hilarious and laughed like a maniac. He joined in and soon we rolling all over the floor.

Finally, we both stopped and looked at each other.

"Your favorite band?" He asked getting up and helping me.

"Um…I don't have any favorites…I like The Script, Maroon 5 and a few of One Direction and Shayne Ward…"

He smiled and quickly pulled out a CD out of his massive collection.

A few seconds later, the song 'Breathless' started. We just looked in each other's eyes the whole time.

After a few minutes, the song changed to 'No Promises'. This time, he held out his hand, and I put my hand in his. He pulled him in his arms and we danced.

I never knew how to dance. But this time, it felt effortless…

If the sun hadn't risen, I could have danced with him all night…

~x~

As we left his room, Esme came out of the study followed by Carlisle.

"I haven't seen you all day", She said as she pulled me in a hug.

"Um…Edward was just showing me around his room"

"Yeah, we heard that. You have a very good choice in music" She smiled.

I just smiled back.

"Do come again, Bella" Carlisle said from behind her.

"I will thank you"

With that, I started walking down the stairs.

"See you at school Bella! Please don't wear those dark blue sneakers! They look ghastly! The converse ones will look much better…" Alice said with an approving smile. I laughed, "Will do Alice!"

Emmett just winked at me and Jasper waved. Rosalie was nowhere to be seen.

Edward walked me out and together we ran.

As we reached my home, I said, "You showed me your room, it is only fair that I show you mine"

"Okay…but we'll be late to school"

"I never in my life would I have thought that you would regret being later to school Mr. Cullen!" I said with mock horror.

He laughed.

I unlocked the front door, and flipped on the lights.

"Well, It is not as grand as yours, but it is one place I would never like to leave" I said as I showed him around.

"I don't have one complete wall covered with music!" I warned as pushed open the door of my room.

"Wow… This place is so cute!"

In my room, a single bed occupied the opposite wall with a tiny nightstand. The cupboard took the adjacent wall with a dresser.

The study table, which held my laptop on top, was on the other wall.

I had no carpet to cover the squeaky floorboards. But a bright yellow curtain covered the window above my bed.

"This is really very nice" Edward said with a smile.

"Thank you" If I could blush, I would have been tomato red by now.

"And if my heart could beat, it would be thudding by now" Edward said as he read my thoughts.

"I should go now; I'll see you at school…" I guess I wasn't the only one who didn't want him to go.

"Yeah…"

We walked at a human pace to the front door.

"Bye…" I gave a sad smile.

"Bye…Isabella"

This time, he gave a hug.

Suddenly, everything in the world felt right…

My body fitted his perfectly.

Even though I was shorter than him, I had no regrets as my head rested on his chest…

As we pulled back, he rested his forehead on mine once, giving me a final look before he ran off in the forest.

Now, I really did believe in the perfect forever with Edward…

A/N – So, how was it? Review and tell me! And by the way, Happy Earth Day! :D
