This is the same girlwho I had a crush on at eight-years-old, became obsessed with at twelve, and now at nineteen have no idea what I’m doing with.

Seeing her now, I realize that that girl that I used to know is still inside her. She just needs to be taken out of her shell.

Sienna senses my inner turmoil; she always can. She grabs my hand and all breath comes back into my lungs, stilling me in my spot. My eyes flicker to the clock on my car's dashboard.

“We’re going to be late…” My voice comes out like an avalanche of words as Sienna tilts her head to the side.

“For what? I thought that this was—"

"I’m going to take you somewhere special.”

Sienna

“Kissme,”hesays,his voice just above a whisper. A shiver runs down my spine as his strong hands pull me against his muscular chest, holding me in place.

Jace’s golden hair and sage eyes glimmer in the sun as he leans in closer, hungrily searching me. My body is liquid in his embrace, aching for the moment our lips touch. The second our tongues dance with one another's and our bodies become one.

There’s a hint of mischief in the depths of his irises. He’s having fun with me, and I know it.

“Why should I, Heart?” I tease, my eyes flickering to his plump lips then back to his eyes in a second.

He chuckles softly, the feel of his breath is cool against my skin.

I want to taste him, devour his mouth and savor it.

If I were an artist, this moment with him in this field would be set and hung up in galleries all over the world.

“Sienna…This is the skin of a killer…”

Wait…What?

Jace’s eyes morph from the familiar light green that I know all too well to a light golden, cat-like color.

“Jace?”

“Bella—”

The world around us crumbles as my body shakes, pulling me from the reality where Jace Heart was a vampire and I, a human, standing in a green field, onthe verge of taking one another. Instead, my view is replaced by sparkling green eyes, moonlight, and the dashboard of a car.

Fucking hell…

“Where…are we?” I ask with a yawn as I stretch my crooked neck.

Jace leans back from my face, grinning like the Cheshire cat, gesturing to the view before me, and that's when it comes back to me.

A gasp leaves my mouth immediately as I take in the wooded area and the multitude of vehicles around us, all facing a giant screen with the wordsTwilight: Breaking Dawn Part Oneplastered on the screen.

“We’re watchingTwilight?” I ask, my voice scratchy as Jace rolls his eyes as if to sayduh…what does it look like?

“Eh…Only the last two, I know you put on the list that you wanted to watch the entire saga, but I also know that you only like watching the last two movies the most.” He shrugs as if what he’s saying is the most normal thing in the world, but it only heightens my shock.

I stare at the blond, my jaw dropped as he smiles softly at me, his brow furrowing for a second before softening.

How does he know that I only like those two movies? I mean I love the series, but those two movies are the best in the franchise.

Argue with your mom, not me. I said what I said.
