My Twilight Journal: Saturday with Edward Cullen
Saturday with Edward in Edward’s meadow is one of my favorite parts of the books so far. There is so much that happens and such a turn in the relationship between Edward and Bella!
Okay I have to admit it I love how Bella admires Edward’s chest and face. I can only imagine how truly beautiful the Cullen’s are. I don’t think the movies do them justice! On the way to Edward’s meadow he continues to badger her with questions. When they reach the meadow Bella is over come with the beauty there. Suddenly Edward is gone.
Edwards Meadow is a sanctuary
Here in the meadow Edward finally, Finally lets his guard down and shows himself to Bella, first in the sunlight and then they finally touch!! Bella starts by only touching his arm with her finger then his hand is in hers. She is so mesmerized by how Edward sparkles. The chemistry between the two is just electric! Then Edward loses it for a few minutes. He runs off, shows Bella how strong and fast he is. I get it, he wants her to truly understand how she should be in danger! What he doesn’t realize is that she knows she “should” be in danger but she can’t feel it!
Edward admits his desire to take her life.
Edward tries to explain how much his is drawn to her. How he had to resist taking her life the first day she came to school and how he ran away. Bella finally understands a little when he describes her as his personal brand of herione. He knows she will never complete understand. Edward explains a lot about his behavior so that Bella knows where he was coming from.
He also admits how he truly feels about her. I love how he says “Your are the most important thing to me now. The most important thing to me ever.” Then Bella responds with “…I’m here…which, roughly translated, means I would rather die than stay away from you.” Okay so now I am in my thirties, a lot of people say that these books really influence teenagers. This part of the book is heavy with emotion and feelings and I will tell you I don’t doubt that teenagers can feel these kind of feelings. I hope my kids don’t feel this way about someone when they are teens. Let me tell you why. When you feel deep emotion such as love like this it causes you to act irrationally, at times. I am not saying always but teenagers have not had the life experience that even twenty-one year olds have. I just hope my kids experience this a few years out of their teens.
Yet when I read this part of the book I dream of being this age and having my first love! I guess it is because of the newness and excitement that it brings!
No make-out sessions for Bella and Edward.
I love how Bella and Edward begin to touch one another. It is so innocent and guarded. There is no big make-out scene. I really love that. They care so much for each other they are careful about everything they do.
Time to leave Edward’s meadow.
As it is getting dark Edward decides he is going to show Bella how he travels through the forest. She is placed on his back and he runs. They are to her truck in seconds and she was sick!! Then as she is recovering on the ground Edward decides to kiss her for the first time. What does Bella do? She attacks him. Grabs him and won’t let go. I think this is pretty hilarious!
I am going to leave off right here for now. This section of the Twilight book was full of emotion for me. I really enjoyed it!
Until next time,
