Twilight Fiction 5-11-08

Forks, Washington

"Edward it's been ten years. (Sigh) I think we would know if she was still alive."

Edward rolled over and gave his sister Alice the coldest glare possible. "How can you say that? Aren't you the one that told her she is like a sister to you? Just, please leave" He turned around and went back to facing his black leather couch.

At that point the sun decided to move from behind the clouds and shine through the window that made up the Cullen's backside of the house. Making the two vampires shine like a prism.

Alice got up, pulled the gold curtains back so the room was once again bathed in darkness, and went back to her spot on the edge of his couch. She laid her hand on his arm and said, "I'm just saying your not the only one suffering" She got up and silently left the 105 year old teenager to grieve.

Edward slowly got up once he realized Alice had left and put his head on his hands. Vampires couldn't cry, but his body still shook and he gasped for breath like he would be if his body was actually running out of air. An idea popped into his head and he ran. He ran down the two flights of stairs. Out through the door. And he ran deep into the forest. He finally stopped and realized where his mind and feet had brought him, their meadow. Before he could stop them his mind was flooded be memories.

Like the first day he took her to the meadow. They had just told Jessica Stanley that they were boyfriend/girlfriend and walked to lunch together. Last night she had found out about him being a vegetarian vampire, but didn't know much else. He sat there and was watching Bella eat when she popped up questions about Vampire myths. One of them being "Do vampires really burn in the sun?" He laughed at that and only answered "Instead of Seattle lets go somewhere else on Saturday." She agreed and they headed of to class. Slowly three days went by and before either of them knew it, it was Saturday. Like he promised Edward was at Bella's doorstep bright and early to pick her up. Under the normal speed limit the drive would have token hours but with Edwards crazy driving they arrived in little less than an hour. That's when he told her that she would have to hike five miles to get where they were going. She tried to smile and act excited, but like she has been told before she is a bad liar and her eyes gave her away. Edward just gave her his famous crooked smile that he knew she loved and they began their hike.

They finally reached the meadow, and when he thought Bella was ready he stepped out of the shadows. Instead of running and screaming she was amazed and excited. They ended up spending the rest of the day their.

He retuned to the real world when the sun, hid behind the clouds once more and disappeared. Twilight, his family's most hated time of the day. He didn't get up to leave, instead became more comfortable. He doesn't know why he didn't hear it before, but now that he could he noticed someone was circling his. Their feet breaking the leaves and twigs every now and then. He jumped up, ready for the attack as soon as it get deathly silent. Out of nowhere a ball of red fun flew at his face.
