I leaned forward quickly and grabbed her hand, making her look at me in surprise "All of what you said is true, I am upset with you for invading my privacy like that, when you yourself can realize how necessary it can be for those who have inhuman powers."

After saying as much, I got up and walked up to her, "But, it is also true that I really have fallen for you Edythe, even more after hearing all this. So, if it is okay with you, I would like to give our relationship one more try. But this time, no more secrets. Neither from you, nor from me. Deal?"

Edythe jumped over to me like a feline cat and hugged me tightly, making me fall back to the couch.

"Deal" she whispered in my ear while hugging me close. I hugged back as tightly as I could, feeling as if a missing part of me had finally been filled.

In a way, I could get what she meant by being stone yet being able to slightly expand and contract. It was proven by the two enticing mounds that were mashing against my chest, making me burn like a flame from the inside. My arms were wrapped around her slim yet graceful waist while her legs were on the either side of my waist.

"Um, Edythe" I whispered "If we keep staying in this position, then I think our relationship might start progressing a bit faster than we would be comfortable with."

Edythe pulled back her head a bit with a throaty chuckle "Oh, and what might happen in that case?" She asked while leaning her head closer, staring directly into my eyes the whole time.

I was not stupid enough to need more invitation, as I leaned forward and took those cool and unyielding lips with mine. A low moan erupted from her throat, almost a purr of satisfaction, as we both closed out eyes and immersed ourselves in the sensation.

One of her arms looped around my neck and the other hand buried in my hair, Edythe responded with almost a wild passion.

Her legs looped around my waist, pulling us closer as her hips rested on my lap. At this moment I was glad for the upgrade my body had gone through, because I was pretty sure Edythe had already crossed the level of force a normal human can withstand without bruises or injuries.

She was breathing heavily through her nose, almost sniffing, as if she was taking in an extremely pleasant scent.

We made out like that for nearly half an hour, before my tongue slipped past her lips in our kissing frenzy. Her cool tongue met mine for a split-second, before Edythe suddenly pulled back swiftly and held me a bit away from her by holding my shoulders.

She was panting heavily while looking into my eyes, more for the need to control herself than the need for air, I realized.

"What happened, Edythe? Did I go too fast?" I asked anxiously.

"Oh, you can never go too fast with a willing vampire" Edythe chuckled softly before starting to explain, "I pulled back because we don't know how my venom could react to you. You are not human, and we have prior information through certain incident that Vampire Venom is not kind to other inhuman races. I am sorry for the abruptness but I had to make sure you stay away from it."

"It is fine Edythe" I said with a smile "I understand, I too was kind of out of control. But unarguably, that was the best experience of my life."

"Is that so?" Edythe said with a devilish smile "Lets see if we cant top that one then." She said while again leaning into me.I gave a soft chuckle before accepting the challenge.

My life was even more busy and complete with Edythe in it, however my power training suffered a bit.

We would hang out nearly the whole day and most of the night without exception. I was also introduced to Alice, Jasper, Emmett and Rosalie.

Alice and Emmett were pretty vocal and expressive in their approval, Jasper and Rosalie were a bit more reluctant.

Jasper was behaving as such because of the unknown factor that I represented. Rosalie was reluctant because I was not a vampire, and could hence endanger them or hurt Edythe emotionally.

But neither were outright in their disapproval of me. But this was not the case with Bella, who I found out through Edythe that Edward was interested in, smitten with more accurately.

Rosalie for some reason seemed to hate her to the extremes, even nearly causing a major fight in the family because of it.

Edythe also told me the reason Edward behaved like he had a love/hate relationship with Bella.

Apparently she was his 'singer', a human whose blood was so fatally attractive to him that it took him every ounce of his control to barely act like a human around her, rather than snarling and pouncing at her like an animal.

Edythe explained that it was a very rare case and that every vampire has a chance to encounter such a person.

These people would only pose such attraction to one specific vampire each, to others their blood would just be like any other human, if not a bit more tastier.

That is why Edward acted weirdly around her while the rest of the Cullen family were fine. Edythe had even taken a chance to briefly be around Bella to see if her blood held the same attraction to Edythe as it did to Edward.

But it turned out that despite being twins, Bella was only Edward's 'singer' and not Edythe's.

We would all discuss Edward's weird relationship with Bella over lunch everyday. Edward actually like me even less than Rosalie, because Bella was more comfortable around me than with any other boys in school.

He was very jealous of how easily I could interact with her and he couldn't despite desperately wishing to. He had a self-sacrificing limitation he had placed on himself not to be friendly to Bella and draw her into the world of supernaturals.

But everyone except Edward could see how futile it was, more he avoided her or acted rudely towards her, more he came closer to being with her.

His actions were inevitably bringing both of them in an inevitable collision, Bella due to her boundless curiosity for the unknown, and Edward because of his fascination and obsession with Bella.

I laughed inwardly when Edythe told me how Edward was seething when Mike, Eric and Tyler tried asking her out.

He was amused by Bella's discomfort while rejecting them, but was also curious at why she rejected them in the first place.

I felt Edward was so obsessed with her because of his apparent attraction to her, both physically and because of her blood, and also because of the fact that she was a mystery to him due to her mind block, unlike most of other humans.

I theorized it was also the reason he didn't like me and was uncomfortable around me, especially since finding about my powers.

I ignored him for the most part, because he was a self-obsessed emo most of the time, barely having an attachment to his family.

I could sense a sort of superiority complex in him, that seemed to irk me sometimes. It might be good if he falls for Bella and starts caring for someone other than himself. Though the chances are low, they say that miracles can happen.

Soon, it turned out that miracles do happen, when Edward finally took first steps toward being with Bella, admitting to her that he wanted to be with her.

Even if he said that it was as a friend, I was familiar with the apparent end result that would take place, as I knew how much Bella was attracted to him.

That was very apparent to anyone who had an observant eye too, as Edward and his car are the first things her eyes search for every day when she comes to school.

Alice, Edythe and I were like a trio of gossip mongers, as we kept track of this interesting drama collectively. Edward forbade us multiple times, but oh well, he can go and suck it.

Alice was extremely excited to meet Bella, especially because of what Alice's powers had shown her. Alice had the power for future sight and ever since Edward had realized his attraction to Bella other than just her blood, Alice had seen her and Bella becoming close friends.

We had an extremely good material for gossip today, as Edward was sitting with Bella in a separate table. Though they looked awkward, things looked to be heading in a positive direction, especially judging from Bella's wonder struck expression.

"Hey," I nudged Edythe slightly, "How come we never tried getting a table for ourselves like that? Makes me feel bad, as if I am not giving you enough attention."

"Oh, don't worry" Edythe said while intertwining her hand with mine and looking at Edward's direction with a smirk.

"My brother is just being an idiot as always, thinking it is better for Bella not to become involved the rest of the weirdos."

As she said that, I saw Edward's eyebrow and smile twitch for a moment as he turned away from Bella momentarily to shoot us a glare, before going back to her.

"I don't think he liked that very much" I told Edythe with a small chuckle.

"And I can't care less about it until he stops being an idiot" Edythe said as she leaned her head against my shoulder and started gentling tracing my intertwined hand with her thumb.
