"Dear DiaryAugust 8th 1917
Today I'm off to my friend Mary's house, I woke up, took out my pin curls and put on a white navy ribboned blouse with a matching navy skirt and my favourite white leather lace ups, along with my white stockings, I've got my purse with me, in my purse is a small powder compact,mints,sense and sensibility by Jane Austen, and some remaining pocket money, although my seventeenth birthday is in a month so I shouldn't have to wait too long for some more."
I walked out of my house to a lovely warm breeze as I waved my mother and father goodbye as I walked merrily down the road, I'm from Illinois so it was rather sunny, for august at least considering it's nearing autumn
whilst my nose was in my book(which my mother is always pestering me about) I looked up and realised I had walked completely absent-mindedly, and seemed to be lost...Just my luck.
The place I managed to end up stranded in was not especially gloomy, just unfamiliar and more shaded than the rest of my neighbourhood. I turned around beginning to pace when a tall, bearded man approached me, he did reek of ale so my mental alarms immediately sounded
"hey baby u lost?"
think..think! "Um no, thank you"
"oh cmon I can help ya out" the man insisted.
"really sir, no thank you" I gave an ingenuine smile
suddenly, as I turned to confidently walk in the opposite direction to give off the idea that I even somewhat knew where I was going, his hands were on my shoulders and he was attempting to drag me into a small, dark alleyway. I kicked and screamed but he covered my mouth just before grabbing my waist to pull me into him
I trembled with fear as my screams turned to sobs as I wailed preparing myself for what was about to come, not that I could predict anything. Then, as if I'd died in that very moment, the terror stopped, the physical aspect of it at the very least, I was still shook with fear and I curled up in the corner of the murky alley my hands over my eyes as I cried.
I finally snapped my eyes wide open to see my attacker on the floor, unconscious and a man..no, a boy seeming just my age possibly older, kneeling to offer me his hand to get up.
"are u okay miss?"
"yes, I think so thanks to you actually"
"you seem a little shaken up, let me get you something to eat or drink"
you'd think with my encounter, literally twenty seconds ago, that I would not be so trusting of someone I don't know. But this man had just rescued me as if he were some guardian angel and I was the pathetic damsel so naturally I was rather lenient towards him, that and the fact I did very much need something to eat, I'd forgotten breakfast in my race to leave the house
I brushed my skirt clean, twirled my fingers through my hair and walked my way to the nearest diner, we should really be chaperoned for this but I was getting rather desperate.
it was not until he asked for our table that I actually looked at him and noticed he was rather handsome, green, greyish green eyes, lovely complexion, and oh his hair...
"what's your name mister?"
"Edward...Edward Masen, and yours?"
"Isabella swan, but you can call me Bella,glad to be acquainted"
"as am I, Bella"
EPOV
wow..just wow..I'd seen some beautiful women in my time but they had nothing on this girl! She has these chocolate eyes that draw you in so deep, beautiful fair skin and even after being shaken by that pig her hair was flawless and beautiful curled
"So Bella, how old are you?"
"I'm sixteen, though I'm turning seventeen in a month!" She said enthusiastically "and you?"
"oh I'm seventeen since two months ago, say, what school do u attend?"
"lakeveiw academy, the private school just over these few towns"
"I go there too, how come I've never seen if u we are both juniors?"
"I tend to keep to myself, although your name is familiar?"
"ah yes I'm on the baseball time, third base"
"oh I guess that would make sense"
the waiter came over and asked us what we would like,of course she is not going to pay a dime especially not after that ordeal just half an hour ago.

He ordered us a Sunday to share,gosh I love Sundays.He then payed but in a classy way, not the wallet waving way a silly immature boy would, he was a real gentleman.
About an hour of endless chatting came to a sad end, poor Mary has expected me today, though I find Edward to be far more worth while, we walked home in our usual manner asking and answering questions from one another, I really like this Edward.
he walked me up to my front gate as I skipped merrily up the porch, I heard his voice one again.
"Bella, as we're not yet back in school would u care to join me again tomorrow?"
oh my god oh my god oh my god YES!!
"that sounds good to me" I said with a smile
"I'll be here at twelve o clock then" he waved and I shut the door behind me,rushed up to my room and kicked my legs in the air on my bed, I. Cannot. BELEIVE. That. Just. Happened. Ohh Edward, Edward masen I could say it a thousand times in my mind and it would still make me feel all light and fuzzy as it had when he introduced himself, I CANNOT wait to see him again
