"You're impossibly fast. And strong. Your skin is... pale white,
and ice cold. Your eyes change color and sometimes you speak
like like you're from a different time. You never eat or drink any
thing. You don't go into the sunlight."
The air was tense and heavy, I could feel my small world beginning
to close in on me. Yet I was more curious than scared and I would
let her know that. She just looked at me with her amber colored eyes,
a very even look across her beautiful face. What was she thinking?
Shifting my stance almost nervously I asked, "How old are you?"
Her response was slow, "Seventeen."
"How long have you been seventeen?" I asked.
I thought I saw her shoulders tense, but that could have been a trick
of the light. A bird chirped overhead and flew off in a flutter of wind.
The whole world seemed quiet as I stood here with her in a clearing
in the forest.
"A while."
In that moment I knew, for a fact, that she was not of this world. It
should have shocked me, I should have been running away from her.
Away from her world and the danger that could be found there. Instead,
I found myself embracing it. Because it was her world. Leaving Bella
wasn't something I could do, not now that I was so in love with her. Or
maybe saying that I loved her wasn't something that I should think, but
how else could it be explained? Swallowing, I steadied my own breath and
the fluttering in my stomach.
"I know what you are."
Her jaw tensed, "Say it. Out loud...say it."
"Vampire."
