illicit Relationship (Editing)

Ch 18: Lost Memories

“Love is just a word until someone comes along and gives it meaning.”

"What’s wrong" Mr. Night asked me. 

We were in my house watching a movie, the movie had finished and we were now just sitting there doing nothing. 

I looked at the concern and worry in his eyes. And the love and adoration he had for me. I didn’t know what to do. 

I just found out that Edward was the idiot who changed me, and I remember that day perfectly now..... 

FLASHBACK 

"I’m sorry honey, but this marriage will benefit the family." my mom said. 

I could feel the tears on my eyes. "No mom, I love Edward." I said. The tears now streaming down my face. And to make matters worse the corset was making it hard to breath. 

"Sometimes..." she said with sadness in her eyes "we have to sacrifice things for our families." 

I continued to cry, the urge to kick and scream present. But I restrained myself. "No mom" I said wiping the tears away. 

"I will not marry anyone, ever, unless it is Edward" I said running out of my house, and toward Edwards’s house. 

I found him, pacing outside his house. When he saw me running he came to me and held me in his arms. 

"I can’t marry him Edward." I said crying into his chest. 

"I know." he said running a hand through my hair. 

"Do something. Anything. I love you Edward, I will never marry anyone but you." I said with tears on my face. 

"Anything" he asked me, I was a little afraid of him at the moment. 

But I nodded anyways.  

He suddenly got a determined look on his face. But he didn’t tell me anything, I knew that face. I knew he had an idea but I didn’t know what it was.

After holding me for a long time he pulled away from me with a small smile on his face

“You should go home Emilia, your family must be worried sick.”

I continued to sob as I held onto him. “I cannot, and will not marry that man. And I don't want to see Momma for fear of what she will tell me.”

He smiled at me one last time before pulling away.

“Go, your mother loves you.”

I nodded before pulling away from him, I turned to walked home but decided to stay a little longer. But when I looked towards Edward u found him gone. So I went home.

"Oh honey I was worried sick, where were you?" my mother asked me. 

Yea sure. I thought to myself, you were worried you wouldn’t get your money's worth. 

"I’m fine mother" I said with a calm voice. 

"Good, I’m glad you've calmed down" she said. 

I nodded and followed her. 

That night we were supposed to go meet my fiancé and his family, so I could meet them. I never did find out who it was because when we got to the house I was already grumpy. 

It was dark out, maybe about eight. 

We were on the front door 

"I’ve changed my mind, I’m not ready yet." I said trying to pull away. 

My dad grabbed onto my hand. "We told them we would meet them tonight" he said in his serious voice. 

I pulled away from him with all my strength and ran away. Yes I know, walking alone at night was probably not a good idea, but I wasn’t thinking. 

I began walking home, and everything was fine until I heard a noise behind me. I ignored it, afraid, and continued walking. 

I heard the person behind me trip, they were probably drunk.  

That’s when they grabbed onto me, and for a split second I thought I saw Edward. But then I felt them bite into me, and I thought it wasn’t him. But now I know my first thought was correct.

A couple of hours later I woke up in a weird room in the middle of the forest. There was a cup of blood on the table next to me, without thinking I drank the whole thing. I looked around the room. 

There was only a bed. No windows. Just a door. 

I walked to it and tried to open it. It was locked through the other side. 

I ran to the other side of the room. Then with all my might I ran into the door, and to my surprise it flew about ten feet away. 

I smiled at myself and began walking away, unaware that Edward had changed me so we could be together

"I’m fine" I said to Mr. Night. Kissing him lightly on the lips. I honestly had no idea what to think anymore.
