i want to stay with you." it was easier to say in the darkness, knowing as i spoke my voice would betray me, my hopeless addiction to him.
Stephenie MeyerDo you think Iโll ever get better at this? That my heart might someday stop trying to jump out of my chest whenever you touch me?
Stephenie MeyerNot many people get every single thing they want plus all the things they didn't think to ask for in the same day.
Stephenie MeyerDazed and disoriented, I looked up from the bright red blood pulsing out of my arm - into the fevered eyes of the six suddenly ravenous vampires.
Stephenie MeyerIt won't be the same for me," I whispered, half to myself. "You won't let me be like that. We'll live in Antarctica." Edward snorted, breaking the tension. "Penguins. Lovely.
Stephenie MeyerHeโs playing every bit as hard as I am, only he knows what heโs doing and I donโt. Donโt blame me because heโs a better manipulator than I am โ I havenโt been around long enough to learn all his tricks.
Stephenie MeyerI just know I'm too much of a wuss for Stephen King's books. I'm way too chicken to read horror.
Stephenie MeyerYou are...Well, not exactly the love of my life, because I expect to love you for much longer than that. The love of my existence." -Bella
Stephenie MeyerFor a second I was just a kid โ a kid who had lived all of his life in the same tiny town. Just a child. Because I knew I would have to live a lot more, suffer a lot more, to ever understand the searing agony in Edwardโs eyes.
Stephenie MeyerBears," I muttered, adding a new fear to the pile. "That would be just her luck, wouldn't it? Stray bear in town. OF course it would head straight for Bella.
Stephenie MeyerI used to dream about him all the time," Sunny whispered to me. "Every night. I kept hoping the Seekers would find him; I missed him so much...When I saw him, I thought it was the old dream again.
Stephenie MeyerI know you think that I have some kind of perfect, unyielding self-control, but that's not actually the case. - Edward Cullen
Stephenie MeyerIsn't it supposed to be like this?" He smiled. "The glory of first love, and all that. It's incredible, isn't it, the difference between reading about something, seeing it in the pictures, and experiencing it?" "Very different," I agreed. "More forceful than I'd imagined.
Stephenie MeyerMy heart hasn't beat in almost ninety years but this was different it was like my heart was gone like I was hallow like I'd left everything here with you.
Stephenie MeyerAs long as you like me the best. And you think Iโm good-lookingโsort of. Iโm prepared to be annoyingly persistent.
Stephenie MeyerWhat do I look like? The Wizard of Oz? You need a brain? You need a heart? Go ahead, take mine. Take everything I have.
Stephenie MeyerSo itโs still standing?โ he managed to get out between his snickers. โI wouldโve thought you two had knocked it to rubble by now. What were you doing last night? Discussing the national debt?โ Emmett howled with laughter.
Stephenie MeyerEdward helped, making faces every so often at the raw ingredients-human food was mildly repulsive to him.
Stephenie MeyerI could really appreciate him now - could properly see every beautiful line of his perfect face, of his long, flawless body with my strong new eyes, every angle and every plane of him. I could taste his pure, vivid scent on my tongue and feel the unbelievable silkiness of his marble skin under my sensitive fingertips.
Stephenie MeyerOf course, I still saw Edward at school, because there wasn't anything Charlie [her dad] could do about that. And then, Edward spent almost every night in my room, too, but Charlie wasn't precisely aware of that.

Stephenie MeyerI had the easiest publishing experience in the entire world. I sent out fifteen courier letters to agents, got five no replies, nine rejections and one I want to see it. A month later I had an agent. Another month later I had a three book deal with Little Brown.
Stephenie MeyerJackson Rathbone can really play the guitar. Our taste in music is not exactly the same, but we found common ground with Radiohead's Creep, with which he then serenaded me.
Stephenie MeyerOur relationship couldn't continue to balance, as it did, on the point of a knife. We would fall off one edge or the other, depending entirely upon his decision, or his instincts. My decision was made, made before I'd ever consciously chosen, and I was committed to seeing it through. Because there was nothing more terrifying to me, more excruciating, than the thought of turning away from him. It was an impossibility.
Stephenie MeyerSo, how come Jacob Black gets to give you a gift and I don't? Because I have nothing to give back to you. Bella, you give me everything just by breathing.
Stephenie MeyerAnd then... as you were sleeping, you said my name. You spoke so clearly, at first I thought you'd woken. But you rolled over restlessly and mumbled my name once more, and sighed. The feeling that coursed through me then was unnerving, staggering. And I knew I couldn't ignore you any longer.
Stephenie MeyerOnly you could be more important than what I wanted...what I needed. What I want and what I need is to be with you, and I know I'll never be strong enough to leave again.
