Celestial Twilight

-Aarghhh!!! My head was hurting and I couldn`t keep my eyes open but I tried even if it was killing me. Someone was laughing in my face and it pissed me off.

-Not so powerful now are you? But let`s see how good are you with pain, hmm…and more importantly let`s see if that tight little pussy of yours is as good as I imagined to be. His venomous voice makes my inside turn and I trembled in fear. How could this be happening to me? Me, the most powerful person on this land, earth even. Why couldn`t I use my power? What kind of stupid spell did he use on me?

While my mind was wondering on this questions I didn`t noticed that my pants were ripped off or that someone was yelling. Or was more than one person yelling? I didn`t know, all I could feel was blood flowing everywhere and how blackness was surrounding me for the last time. The last thing I remember was the feeling of being ripped apart when something hard entered me…

January 20^th 2011

-Hey Bells, it`s time to wake up.

The bed was shaking so hard it was like some elephants were staying there and laughing so hard that the bed starts to shake. Mhmmm…but wait there is only one person who can do that. Seriously, I`m up if you`ll just stop doing this every morning. You do know that I`m awake before you every morning , and I just like to stay in bed? I opened my eyes slowly while saying this and the brilliant smile that I saw made me curse the person that came with the idea of waking me up every morning. Seriously what was I thinking when I asked Mihnea to do that.

-And you know it`s fun having someone smile to you when you first open your eyes, right? The lucky bastard answered me. So, like I said, time to wake up and go to school. He patted my hand while getting up. I have some business to attend but I`ll see you later in the afternoon ok?

- Ok see you later. Getting up from bed I followed him to the kitchen to make myself a cup of tea. So…wait...how life on the other side?

-I don`t know. I don`t spend that much time there. Why? You wanna go back?

-What? NO! Why would I do that? I hate that place. It`s cursed and I wouldn`t go there even if it was the last place on earth …or space…whatever. Moving to the living room I put my cup on the table and throw myself on the couch. You know that I can go back there and you also know why.What are you really that bored doing my job?

Mihnea came with a plate of food and put it in front of me. Eat! Pissed I took the plate and start eating. I`m not bored or tired or whatever you want to call it. I`m your bodyguard and associate in this…

-Best friend more likely , I said.

-Right , best friend , brother , but still I`m here to protect you and part of my job is to help you with everything that I can.

-Yeah , but being throw in a cage full of snakes were you could die anytime…well you could imagine why I`m so worried about this. Maybe I should stop using you as a shield, stop all this nonsense and pull you out. You have a wife home that needs you more than me. I mean, come on, Kristal is more important than me and my nightmares. It`s been three years since that night , and don`t have as many nightmares as I used too and I…

-Isabella Swan stop this instance. He put his arms around me and grabbed me hard. First, Kristal knows what I`m doing and why I`m doing this. Second, a shield, really? human maybe, but nothing else and also, you are important to me, to your friends and family…Letting go of my arms he took my hands in his and squeeze them. You have to let that night go and start to live a little, go out more that dinner with me or to the mall with your friends. You need to re-learn so things, so dating should be on the list. Life is too short and who better than you to know this. Please, for me , stop worrying about me and start living a little , will ya?

Every time we had this discussion for the past year tears were involved and this time was no different. I buried my face in his shirt and start sobbing. It took me a while to stop crying and taking a huge deep breath I said- Thank you , and pushing him away , but we both know that guilt , nightmares and dating are not stuff that I have in mind right know …the future is so unclear and not going to change soon. I gave him a kiss on the cheek and went to my bedroom to start preparing for the day, but as I was closing the door I could swear I hear him say that my future will change sooner that I thing.

Sometimes I wonder why did I choose this school, this major, just because I like to read doesn`t mean that I have to torture myself with some of the courses. I was a freshman Northwestern University studying Linguistics and Literature and by far the Phonetics class was the hardest ever. The course was easy but Professor Christmas was a nightmare, different that my usual ones; I think his name wasn`t a blessing at all during this year. I was currently at the class of Professor Ray, who was teaching us English Sintax , and of course bored out of my mind I started playing with my phone.

-Miss Swan are we interrupting something? Perhaps you could help us solve this sentence?

-Sure! Why not? Looking at the blackboard I saw the ironic sentence written “ Anyone can get old.All you have to do is live long enough”-Grucho Marx

Anyone is a subject and an indefinite pronoun; can get old , nominal clause,consisting of the modal auxiliary ”can” and the linking verb “get” followed by the adjective “old” who is a subject complement . All you have to do is a subject and a noun phrase ; all-indefinite article ; you have to do – defining relative clause, postmodifer of the head “All” ; is long to live enough- nominal predicate

-Good , Isabella! Now stop daydreaming and pay attention! Said the Professor after giving me the stink eye.

After class I was walking with my two friends Tia and Gaby to the cafeteria. We went to get our food and then set at our usual table near the window. I wasn`t that hungry so I started playing with my food and Gaby noticed that .

-Are you going to eat any of that? And hey what`s wrong with you?

-No, be my guest. I`ll ditch the last class. I`m not feeling well! And I wasn`t lying, after the conversation that I had with my roommate this morning everything started to fall into little pieces feeling of guild was eating me.

-You`re sure about that? It’s the last class before the exam, maybe it`s important.

-I doubt that. But even is its important I don`t care right now. I took my bag and hug the girls. See you tomorrow at the library.

-Bye!

I left the cafeteria and the campus in a hurry being too closed in my head when I came bump into someone. Or so I thought. A hand was thrown in my face. Hi, I`m Alice! I looked up and so designed closed, a prefect white face with a killer smile and warm yellow eyes. Next too this person stood other four people….all looking the same, with pale white skin and warm eyes. The blond guy that had his hand around the pixie girl that presented herself, the perfect blondie that had a calculating look on her face, the huge guy with the big smile on his face …and the last one. I didn`t even dare to look at him, I knew how he look like, how handsome he was…the outline of his jaw, the color of his eyes ,of his hair…how it couldn`t be tamed…I knew what they represented but I didn`t want to know them…the Cullens….vampires. The Cold Ones.

Ice…ice and fire…I could not let that happen. So no ice…the secret will not be reveled with them.

-So…I guess I freaked you about but we can try again…my name is Alice and this are….

-I`m not interested in who you are …so if you`ll excuse me…I gave a step back and look atl all of them one last time and run to the car.

Epov

I`m not interested…I`m not interested…the words circled in my head. Well that went well don’t` you think, Alice?

-She is scared…but I don`t know why.

-I don`t think she`s scared, darlin` .For a fraction of second I that I feel like she knew us …but her feelings of guilt and fear are way too strong to detect something else.
