Heart Beat

Plaza

I'm in a forest, it's eerily quiet and there's a rustle of leaves. I swiftly turn to see what's near me, and find none other than Edward Cullen standing in front of me. He's smirking at me like I'm a snack, and then scoops me up with ease. I can tell my face registered the fear bubbling inside me, because he chuckles.

"Oh Chelsie, you think I'm going to kill you. Drink your blood and you're done, right?" I nod frightened. His smirk returns. "Well, I'm not going to do that."

"What? W-why?" I cock my head a bit in confusion, and then move it back once I realize it would give him easy access to my neck if he had a change in heart, or hunger.

"Because, that's not what I do; I only drink the blood of animals, like a vegetarian-" Edward stops talking abruptly and I give him another confused look.

"Chelsie! Chelsie open the door! Amber's here! Open your door!" My eyes snap open and I lift my head, receiving an ache in my neck. I groan and roll my neck to try and lessen the stiff ache. I then wipe my mouth realizing I must have drooled, but I never drool. Then I see my novel on my lap and understand: I fell asleep reading and dreamt the part that I read to; myself in place of Bella. Man, two guys fighting over me, I'd only be so lucky...

The banging on the door reminds me that someone is trying to get my attention. I jump up off the bed, more aches in response. I swing open my door and see Shelby. I rub the sleep from my eyes before responding and acknowledging her presence.

"Shelby? What do you want so early?" I ask still tired. She laughs.

"Early? It's almost noon! And if you didn't hear me Sleeping Beauty," she teases, "Amber is here." Then she walks off. Probably to listen to Ross. Or maybe get lunch considering what time it is.

I walk down the hall and through the kitchen to get to the main hallway where the front door is. I see Amber waiting there and try my hardest to smile. I'm still practically asleep. She smiles brightly at me.

"I hope you don't plan on going out in that." She chuckles.

"Nah, come pick me something to wear." i say turning around and going back to my room, with her to follow.

"So my sister isn't the only premature teenager out there?" I ask sarcastically and take another sip of my smoothie as we walk around the plaza. Amber laughs.

"Apparently not. Gina entered that same contest. She's obsessed over some blonde kid; he's on Disney!" She shrills! I chuckle as we get a few looks from people around.

"Well his music isn't terrible, especially his families band; they're great. And he's not a kid, he's our age." I comment. She looks at me and her eyes widen.

"Are you serious!" She pipes yet again gaining looks for her volume. I laugh.

"Yeah why?" I ask shrugging, and taking another sip of my yet-to-be-gone smoothie. She grabs my arm like a life line.

"What if we met him?!" More looks from some now very annoyed people. "We could be famous!" She throws her arms in the air. I laugh at her until in hunched over holding my stomach. She puts her hands on her hips. "What Chels?" She raises an eyebrow at me.

"Y-you sound like...like Shelby!" I squeal through laughs, and trying to catch my breath. This is why me and my friends are a bad idea in public, we are so obnoxious.

"Well it's possible." She defends. I snicker.

"Yeah, if we won and of course if we were supermodels." I counter and take the last sip from my smoothie and throw it away in a near-by trash bin. She stops me and gives me a look; her hands on her hips again and her eyebrow arched, again.
