Jacksonville

[Edward Cullen]

E D W A R D CULLEN

"That’s Edward. He’s gorgeous, of course.
But don’t waste your time. He doesn’t date.
Apparently none of the girls here are good-looking
enough for him."

Edward rubbed his hands together nervously, he had already made a bad impression on one of Bella’s parents, Charlie was still debating whether to drop that blasted cinderblock on his head. Even more so when he “threw Bella to the sharks” (as she so operatively put it, though she has no worries about eternal damnation) by telling Charlie that Bella wanted to go visit her Mother With him with the plane tickets his parents Carlisle and Esme had brought for her birthday. He wanted nothing more than Renee to like him, and this would be the first time she had ever met him. What was the worst that could happen? Well Edward thought to himself, he could end up eating her and Phil but that would be the very worst possible outcome. When Alice had envisioned Victoria coming, Edwards mind had gone into overload, scheming and planning, thinking of every possible way to get Victoria and throttle her with her own red hair. Of course Edward had later realized that this option was not possible, as vampires could not suffocate (he had previously tried this feat with Emmett-and it had resulted in him being impaled in the eye with the staple gun. If he didn’t know better he would swear that Emmett spent hours target practice with that damn thing.) He decided that the safest solution, though his least favorable as he wanted to get his hands on Victoria and rip her limb from limb was simply that he and Bella had to go somewhere. The answer that sprung into his head like a little light bulb. Jacksonville.
It was the morning they were leaving and Edward surprisingly had lay all night with Bella in his arms feeling decidedly nervous. All these fears came to him, he knew how close Bella was to her Mother, therefore he wanted to make a good impression and for Renee and Phil to like him. If they didn’t like him, it would make Bella’s life a lot harder, and this is what he did not want, it was bad enough one parent not liking him. Every so often in the night he had darted over to the window to check the weather, it looked as if it was going to be cold and wet in Forks. That gave him some leeway, it wouldn’t look to suspicious if he came off the plane in gloves, he needed to be prepared if Phil wanted to shake his hand, or Renee hug him. They may have got a tad suspicious, or infact called an emergency doctor if they felt how cold he was. He had visions of them calling an ambulance, listening for a non existent heart beat, attempting to take non existent blood, with the needle not even able to penetrate the skin. Within the hour the media would have been called and “the living dead boy” would have been across worldwide newspapers. He didn’t think this was the best way to keep the secret that he was a vampire. He was pretty sure the Volturi along with the rest of his family would have been mildly pissed.
The morning had passed rather fast, Edward nipped home, and grabbed his suitcase that he had previously packed. He had the typical touristy things that Esme had insisted on packing him just in case for whatever reason Renee noticed that he infact had no normal people gear such as swim costumes, sun cream and what not. His suitcase was infact that heavy that Charlie mistaking it for Bella’s hadn’t been able to lift it into the car. As soon as he realized it was his he wandered off moaning about pulling his back out.
After a plane journey they had arrived, Edward glanced out of the window. Luck was on their side today, unheard of cloudy weather was blessing Jacksonville. He wouldn’t look like a glittery fairy walking to meet them. He gripped Bella’s hand a little tighter.
“I’m a tad nervous…” he murmered. He took a deep breathe and walked down the steps of the airplane, with Bella in toe.

[Bella Swan]

Jacksonville she had thought it was a bad idea at first, and he had come up with the idea so fast. What was he trying to hide. She knew it was something Alice wouldn’t look her in the eye and Edward was being himself by not telling her anything. She had thought that they were in agreement that they were to tell each other everything. No matter what it was. Sighing she got ready by packing her clothes. She had a feeling that something was going to happen. Something bad and she wasn’t going to be here to help her family. She thought about Charlie and how vulnerable he was. Sighing again she looked toward the window, Edward was going to be here soon and then she was going to have to go to Jacksonville and live thought that. IT wasn’t that she thought her mother, Renee would not like Edward she was fairly certain she would like him. She didn’t know anymore she would just have to take it, what ever it was that he was trying to hid, she was going to have fun with Renee.

She had been listening to his CD that he gave her, the one with his compositions on it. Of course she listened to her lullaby mostly but all his music was beautiful. She couldn’t get enough of them. After he had come back and gave them the CD and pictures back she couldn’t really get enough of either things so when Edward wasn’t with her that’s all she really did. She sighed when they finally got on the plane. The ride itself was very long. Very, very long. As she made her way off the plane she smiled, she was actually going to see her mother. Though she hoped she warned him that her mother was a bit more perspective then Charlie was. She smiled when she herd what he said. “I’m a bit nervous as well. Not because of my mother but because of how.. Uh perspective she could be sometimes.” she said, holding his on to his hand tighter.

“How are we getting to my mothers house?” she murmured once they were off the plane and heading out toward the front of the building. “Are you driving or are we taking something else.” she joked. She knew that they didn’t have a car here but she also knew that the Cullen family did not hesitate to steal when needed. She sighed though because at that thought it brought memories of Italy back up and she did not want to think about that right now. She was happy with Edward and she was visiting her mother. Nothing else needed to be thought of right now.
