Bella woke with a start, her chest heaving as she fought for breath.
"Oh God" she moaned quietly when would she stop having these nightmares. She lay calming her breathing and analysing the dreams she's been having lately. The same thing over and over, a dark presence, a glimpse of a face, the smell of sweet breath and the brush of lips over her own.
Although they were scary dreams, they were also strangely erotic and exciting.
The mans face was beautiful from what she could see of it in the dark of her dream. He was always standing, watching her sleep, waking her when his lips touched her own and then she did wake, her heart pounding and her chest heaving and her mind in turmoil.
Looking at the clock she decided to get up and shower and get into work early.
Drying her hair with a towel, the doorbell rang and Bella frowned. It was real early for visitors or the post. As she peered through the spyhole she could see a tall man with a shock of auburn hair and broad shoulders. Putting the safety chain on she opened the door and asked "Can I help you".
As the man turned and his face came into view Bella gasped, her hand fluttering around her chest. "It's you" She said and then everything went black....

For goodness sakes...it has a dream theme. I am going to try now...no one jump in yet...
Everything went black....
Bella awoke on the couch with the towel from her hair now pressed against her forehead. She could feel the cold ice slowly extinguishing the fire that was burning between her temples as the melted cubes sent tiny drips of water down her cheeks.
"Are you crying?" he asked, wiping the drops away.
"No," she responded, as she lifted herself into the sitting position. "what happened?"
"You fainted, Bella. Not exactly a warm welcome," he mused as Bella tried desperately yo believe her own eyes. It was the man from her dreams, and he knew her name. He was in her living room, and he was beautiful as she had imagined.
Ohhh! Me next!

Wait a minute...he was in her living room? How did he get in? Bella was absolutely positive she'd put the chain on before opening the door.
Struggling to her feet, Bella stammered "Who...who are you a..and, how did you get in here?"
The stranger stood up to help her, but Bella yanked her hand back before he could touch her. Somehow, she knew his touch would be cold.
Sighing, he ran a hand through his already touseled hair. Ignoring her first question, he stated, "When you opened the door you immediately passed out. You'd used the chain on the front door, so I went around to the back." He smirked at her. "That one was unlocked." He paused, staring at her for a moment. "Bella...when you answered the door, right before you fainted, you said 'it's you.' Do you know who I am?"

"Bella...when you answered the door, right before you fainted, you said 'it's you.' Do you know who I am?"
Bella blushed, the colour flooding her cheeks, her whole face. She knew she must look a fright and ducked her head to look at the floor "Ooh that, no I don't know you, I just thought I did"
There was no way in hell she was going to tell Edward about the dreams she thought.
"Anyway how do you know my name and I think I should go and get dressed"
Edward grinned "Oh I don't know, you look pretty good in what you have on but I guess if it makes you more comfortable then go ahead"
Bella looked at Edward, taking in the chiselled jaw, the bright caramel eyes and pale skin. Just like my dream she thought and shaking her head she made her way up the stairs. It was only as she shut her bedroom door that she thought there's a man I don't know sitting in my living room doing lord knows what. "funnily enough" she whispered to herself "I don't feel threatened at all...ha"
my go....

She quickly changed into some dark blue skinny jeans and a white fitted shirt, they showed off her curves nicely. She smiled at her reflection in the mirror, ran her fingers through her hair in an effort to tame it, then skipped over to the door.
She pulled it open and almost jumped a foot in the air.
"Edward!" she gasped, "what are you doing up here?" He was stood in her doorway, almost touching her now. "Bella", he breathed, staring into her wide brown eyes. " I know you recognise me", he reached up and trailed a cold finger down her cheek. Bella took a step back, slowly shaking her head. "I told you, i dont know who you are", her voice came out almost like a squeak, not at all how she had intended.
" Your lying, I can tell." He moved towards her again, slowly backing her up towards the bed. Her knees hit the edge and she fell backwards, quickly shuffling up until she was in the middle of the bed.
He followed her, stopping only when he was positioned above her, hands either side of her head.
" Is this better? Do you remember me now..." He bent his head and gently brushed her lips with his own. " ..Bella?"
She drew in a shuddering breath, looked into his beautiful golden eyes and whispered "Yes..."
Oh Becky...very nice!
