Taking a few days off

That night I talked to Carlisle and told him I had to get away for a few days, because Bella’s Scent was driving me wild.  I planned to leave at midnight, but I had this urge to see Bella once before I left.  I knew where Bella lived because her father was Police Chief Charlie Swan.  I ran through the forest, her scent getting closer as I approached Chief Swan’s house.  The smell was totally tantalizing, it was like it was calling for me, no like she was calling for me.

I jumped gracefully and quietly through her window.  She was sleeping, not restlessly though.  She had only half her body in the blankets, and she looked like she was having a good dream.  She moaned softly and clutched the covers so tightly to her body.  I held my breath for fear that I would take her life, if I had breathed in her scent this close for even just a second.  I stood by the window watching her sleep, how I wished I could look into her mind right now.  Then suddenly she says my name “Edward” I backed away from the bed fearing that she seen me there, but her eyes were closed she was still asleep. I left her house with two questions in my mind.   Was she dreaming about me???  Why would she say my name if she hadn’t been??

I decided to go British Columbia up in Canada for my hunting trip, and to give me some time away from Bella’s delicious mouth watering scent.  I rather enjoyed my time by myself hunting mountain lions is a great distraction, still those questions ran through my mind.  I stayed up in British Columbia for four days, before I decided to return to Forks.  I sure wasn’t thirsty anymore and figured I’d be able to handle being close to Bella.  There was a warm welcome for me when I got home, everyone had missed me dearly.  Esme ran to me and hugged me tightly and told me that she was glad I was home.  My beautiful fragile mother for all intensive purposes was so sweet and kind hearted; she loved us all as if we were her own flesh and blood.  I decided I would go play the piano and relax a bit before the morning came and I had to go back to school.  I played the piano into the night until early morning.  Time passed by quickly and I didn’t realize the time until Alice put her hand gently on my shoulder.
