Love Like No Other

Chapter 21: Dream

RECAP: I watched intently as the sides of Bella's mouth twitched upwards, damn she was adorable!

Bella's POV:

My eyes all too willingly closed as I rested my head against Taylor's strong shoulder, feeling his arms wrap around me instantly and pull me in closer to him.

I sighed to myself, as I remembered why I wasn't driving my precious car. India refused to let me drive her anywhere until I let her drive my convertible that just so happened to be both of our favorite color, orange. So after a while of us bickering back and forth I finally agreed, only to have a new argument arise about where to go.

Taylor finally cut into our childish behavior after about ten minutes with the idea of relaxing and going back to the house for a movie or something.

The idea was brilliant to me considering the fact that I was exhausted! All that I wanted to do was go back home and plop down on my comfortable king sized bed and SLEEP! But like my mom always says ' if your going to be a host, the least you can be is a good one.'

I must have fallen asleep because i suddenly felt my body being lifted from the car by sturdy arms, cradling me in a warm embrace that if given the choice, I would have stayed in forever.

When my eyes opened I gazed around at my surroundings. I felt my heart flutter as I tried to take everything in. I was in the most breath-taking meadow that had multiple arrays of flowers blooming from every which angle. Beautiful vines hung from the multiple trees that occupied the field. There was mist just above the trees that brought a bit of a mysterious feeling.

The meadow itself was almost a spit interpretation of Bella and Edwards. The only difference was that there was a huge willow tree in the middle of the area, and from it hung an old and worn out swing that looked like it had been there for ages.

I was about to walk towards it when out of no-where Taylor appeared in front of me, as tall and handsome as ever. But what chilled me to the bone was the look on his usually peaceful face. It held an expression that I have never seen on him before. Flashes of anger but at the same time looks of lose and love.

I reached out to touch him, and try to comfort him in anyway possible. Wanting whatever pain that was bothering him to just disappear. But before I could touch him Eric was standing in between Taylor and I separating us from being together.

I gasped, and stumbled back a little. Eric was my old, and only boyfriend that I have ever had before Taylor. We went out all through high school. Everyone thought that we were going to be together forever. We did to. That was until the day that I told him that I was moving to LA to live with my aunt.

"W_What are you doing here Eric?" I stuttered, looking everywhere possible to keep from looking into those enchanting blue eyes. The same blue eyes that took me to the movies, to the park, and to prom.

I shook my head, ashamed to have even thought those things. I was with Taylor. Nothing was ever going to change that.

"What am I doing? What are YOU doing Bella?" he asked his voice rising with anger," What the hell are you doing with this guy?" he asked, jabbing his finger towards Taylor who was standing only a few feet away from him with a look of rage displayed on his beautiful face.

"Don't talk to her like that!" Taylor hissed, the sound of his voice causing me to flinch. I watched wide eyed as he pushed past Eric to walk over to where I stood motionless, watching the scene play out in front of me

"He's not good for you." Eric's voice was suddenly gentle and soothing, "you should pick me over him."

The sound of his voice, a voice that I thought I would never hear again suddenly had me walking towards him, my feet moving without my permission.
