"I think your friends are angry with me for stealing you." - Edward
"They'll survive." - Bella
"I might not be giving you back though." - Edward
♥ -----
"So as long as im being...not smart, we'll try to be friends?" - Bella
"That sounds about right." - Edward
♥ -----
"Kryptonite doesn't bother me either." - Edward
♥ -----
"Does this happen alot?" - Nurse
"Sometimes" I admitted. Edward coughed to hide another laugh. - Bella
♥ -----
"You really shouldn't do that to people. Its hardly fair." - Bella
"Do what?" - Edward
"Dazzle them like that--she's probably hyperventalating in the kitchen right now." - Bella
He looked confused.
"Come on. You have to know the effect you have on people." - Bella
He tilted his head to one side, and his eyes were curious.
"I dazzle people?" - Edward
"You haven't noticed? Do you think everyone gets their way so easily?" - Bella
"Do I dazzle you?" - Edward
"Frequently." - Bella
♥ -----
"Well, I'm actually waiting for you to go into shock." - Edward
♥ -----
"You're not a magnet for accidents--thats not a broad enough classification. You are a magnet for trouble. If there is anything dangerous within a 10-mile radius, it will invariably find you." - Edward
♥ -----
"Dont laugh--but how can you come out during the daytime?" - Bella
"Myth." - Edward
"Burned by the sun?" - Bella
"Myth." - Edward
"Sleeping in coffins?" - Bella
"Myth..... I cant sleep." - Edward
♥ -----
"I always tell you what I'm really thinking." - Bella
"You edit." - Edward
"Not very much." - Bella
"Enough to drive me insane." - Edward
♥ -----
"What are you going to tell her?" - Edward
"Hey, I thought you couldn't read my mind!" - Bella
♥ -----
"She wants to know if we are secretly dating. And she wants to know how you feel about me." - Edward
"Yikes...What should I say?" - Bella
"Hmmmm...I suppose you could say yes to the first...If you dont mind--its easier than any other explanation." - Edward
"I dont mind." - Bella
"As for the second question...Well, I'll be listening to hear the answer to that myself." - Edward
♥ -----
"I dont know how you're brave onough to be alone with him." - Jessica
'Why?" - Bella
"He's so...intimidating. I wouldnt know what to say to him." - Jessica
"I do have some trouble with incoherancy when I'm around him." - Bella
♥ -----
But outside the door to our Spanish class, leaning against the wall--looking more like a greek god than anyone had right to--Edward was waiting for me.
♥ -----
"Do you truly believe that you care more for me than I do for you?" he murmured, leaning closer to me as he spoke, his dark golden eyes piercing.
I tried to remember how to exhale. I had to look away before it came back to me.
"You're doing it again." - Bella
"What?" - Edward
"Dazzling me." - Bella
♥ -----
"Of all the things about me that could frighten you, you worry about my driving?" - Edward
♥ -----
"What's your favorite?" - Bella
"Mountain Lion." - Edward
♥ -----
"Theres always plenty of deer and elk here, and they'll do, but wheres the fun in that?" - Edward
♥ -----
"Nothing more fun than an irritated grizzly bear." - Bella
♥ -----
"Your not like anyone i've known--you fascinate me." - Edward
♥ -----
"I'll do the laundry tonight--that out to be fraught with peril." - Bella
"Dont fall in." - Edward
"I'll do my best." - Bella
♥ -----
"You are exactly my brand of herion." - Edward
♥ -----
"You're as white as a ghost--no, you're as white as me!" - Edward
♥ -----
"Bella, I'e already expended a great deal of personal effort at this point to keep you alive. I'm not about to let you behind the wheel of a vehicle when you cant even walk straight. Besides, friend dont let friends drive drunk." - Edward
"Drunk?" - Bella
"You're intoxicated by my very prescence." - Edward
"I cant argue with that." - Bella
♥ -----
He tilted his head slowly and touched his lips to mine for the second time, very carefuly, parting them slightly. And then I collapsed.
"Bella?" - Edward
"You...made...me...faint." - Bella
"What am I gong to do with you? Yesterday I kiss you, and you attack me! Today you faint on me! So much for being good at everything." - Edward
"That's the problem. Your too good. Far, far too good." - Bella
"Do you feel sick?" - Edward.
"No--that wasn't the same kind of faint at all. I dont know what happened...I think I forgot to breathe." - Bella
♥ -----
"You're still waiting for the running and screaming, arent you?" - Bella
A faint smile touched his lips, and he nodded.
"I hate to burst your bubble, but you are really not as scary as you think you are. I dont find you scary at all, actually." - Bella
He growled, a low sound in the back of his throught; his lips curled over his teeth. His body shifted suddenly; half crouched, tensed like a lion about to pounce.
"You wouldn't." - Bella
I didnt see him leap at me--it was much too fast. I only found myself suddenly airborne, and then we crashed onto the sofa, knocking it into the wall. All the while, his arms formed an iron cage of protection around me--I barely jostled. But I still was gasping as I tried to right myself.
He wasn't having that. He curled me into a ball against his chest, holding me more securly than iron chains. I glared at him in alarm, but he seemed well in control, his jaw relaxed as he grinned, his eyes bright only with humor.
"You were saying?" he growled playfully.
"That you are a very, very terrifying monster.
"Much better."
♥ -----
"Hmmmm...It seems I'm going to have to tamper with your memory." - Edward
"Tamper with my memory?" - Bella
"Something like that." He was watching me intently, carefully, but there was humor deep in his eyes. He placed his hands agaist the jeep on either side of my head and leaned forward, forcing me to press back against the door. He leaned even closer, his face inches from mine. I had no room to escape.
"Now." he breathed, and just his smell disturbed my thought processes, "What were you worrying about?"
"Well, um, hitting a tree--" I gulped "--and dying. And then getting sick." - Bella
He fought back a smile. Then he bent his head down and touched his cold lips softly to the hollow at the base of my throught.
"Are you still worried now?" he murmured against my skin.
"Yes." I struggled to concentrate. "About hitting trees and getting sick."
His nose drew a line up the skin on the side of my throught to the point of my chin. His cold breath tickled my skin.
"And now?" He wispered against my jaw.
"Trees," I gasped. "Motion sickness."
He lifted his face to kiss my eyelids. "Bella, you don really think I would hit a tree, do you?"
"No, but I might." There was no confidence in my voice. He smelled an easy victory.
He kissed slowly down my cheek, just stopping at the corner of my mouth.
"Would I let a tree hurt you?" His lips barely brushed against my trembling lower lip.
"No," I breathed. I knew there was a second part to my brilliant defense, but I couldn't quite call it back.
"You see," he said, his lips moving against mine. "Theres nothing to be afraid of, is there?"
"No," I sighed, giving up.
Then he took my face in his hands almost roughly, and kissed me in earnest, his unyielding lips moving against mine.
There was really no excuse for my behavior. Obviously I knew better by now. And yet I couldn't seem ton stop from reacting exactly the way I had the first time. Instead of keeping safely motionless, my arms reached up to twine tightly around his neck, and I ws suddenly welded to his stone figure. I signed, and my lips parted.
He staggered back, breaking my grip effortlessly.
"Damn it, Bella!" he broke off, gasping. "You'll be the death of me, I swear you will."
