i'd never given much thought to how i would die.
 so i can't bring myself to regret the decision that brought me here to die.
 the decision to leave home.
have a good.
 life.
you put it on hold.
look. you also called mexico.
very romantic.
i won't change my mind, mom.
it's not about forks, it's about dad. i mean, two weeks a year, we barely know each other.
i cut it since last time i saw you.
good.
that's right. one bathroom.
i can do it
yeah.  i think i remember.
no way. the truck is for me?
it's perfect!
maybe i can give you a ride to school.
too bad. would've been nice to know at least one person.
i'm kind of the suffer in silence type.
i -- no, i'm not news -- i'm, seriously, not at all
(hurries to him,
just bella.
that's why they kicked me out.
sorry. there's always eating disorders, or speedo padding on the swim team
who are they?
who's he?
i wasn't planning on it.
jerk.
that'd be great, thank you.
so.  you eat here every night?
i can cook.
i do the cooking at home - in phoenix. mom's not great in the kitchen.
a few people.  do you know the cullen family?
no.  well, a little.
 okay.
mom, where's your cell?
dad, i'm heading out. 33 ext. charlie's house - morning 33 on bella's face as she opens the door and stops, dismay filling her. it's pouring down rain --the yard is full of puddles, some frozen. bella shivers, wraps her coat tight.
great. whip pan to the driveway as charlie pulls in -driving her truck.
dad, i can drive myself to school.
ice doesn't help the uncoordinated.
you got me new tires. no one's ever done that before.
i mean.  nothing.
an animal?
be careful.
and thank you. for the tires.
terrific.
i'm.  yes.
you've been gone.
prophase.
like i said.
seriously? you're asking me about the weather?
no. i don't like the cold. or the wet. or the gray. or parkas. or turtle necks.
may i?
it's complicated.
my mother remarried.
phil is fine. young for her, but nice enough.
no.  i -- i just.
did you get contacts?
i'm fine, dad. calm down.
it's okay, tyler.
dad, it's not his fault-
but you didn't.
it would have been a lot worse if edward hadn't knocked me out of the way.
it was amazing he got to me so fast. he was nowhere near me.
you told her?! she's probably freaking.
can i talk to you for a moment? how did you get over to me so quickly?
you were next to your car, across the lot.
yes. you were.
i know what i saw.
you stopped that van. you pushed it away.
i wasn't planning to tell anyone.
i just want to know the truth.
no.
why did you even bother?
 yeah, false alarm.
prom. as in dance. i, uh - have to go
non-refundable ticket. maybe you should ask jessica.
hello, edward.
really?
how did you know about that?
you haven't answered any of mine. you won't even say hello.
and how did you stop that van?
no way. zero weirdness. you guys are great together.
i know you do.
your fault, for telling her about the accident.
he is.
should i know what that means?
i'll go if you stop saying that.
thanks.  but your mood swings are giving me whiplash.
what does that even mean?
so let's say, for argument's sake, that i'm not smart. would you talk to me? tell me the truth?
okay.  how bout radioactive spiders? kryptonite?
no. i don't believe that. you're not bad. you can be a jerk, but it's like this.  mask. to keep people away.
look, why don't we just - hang out. like.  come to the beach with us. it'll be fun - sand fleas, wind burn, salt water stinging your eyes.
la push.
is something wrong with that beach?
you could ask him. (off angela's flustered
guys, this is jacob. are you stalking me?
definitely not.
to be polite.
you know them?
you want to go look at tide pools?
so, what did your friend mean about the cullens not coming here?
i can keep a secret.
like fur, fangs .  doggy breath?
so the legend about the cullens is.
didn't they just move here?
riiiight. so what was this treaty?
wait.  what were they really?
they just.  ditch?
it's a family thing.
port angeles?.
it looks great.
look, just take my bag.
what -- no, how did you find -- ?
no. bad idea.
and you do?
okay, well. thank you.
i could eat.
you're not eating?
like south beach?
so how bout some answers?
i didn't ask for the square root of pi.
how did you know where i was?
were you following me?
so that's a yes?
you said before.  that you heard what those guys were thinking.
why, what's wrong with me?
what is it?
edward, you don't have to.
edward
i think i'm warm enough now.
your hand, it's still freezing cold.
he died? how?
the same kind that killed the security guard down in mason?
so it's getting closer to town.
but that's
dad, i'm sorry about waylon.
that's probably not a good
 it's not possible.
you're impossibly fast. and strong. your skin is pale-white, ice-cold. your eyes change color. and sometimes you speak like.  you're from a different time.
how old are you?
how long have you been seventeen?
i know what the cold ones are. what you are.
 vampire
no.
you won't hurt me. you're different.
where are we going?
no! the sunlight will kill you.
slow down.
no.
i'm not afraid.
no!
edward? where are you?
you're.  beautiful.
i don't believe that.
i don't care.
it doesn't matter.
i trust you.
i trust you, edward. i'm here.
edward?
oh.  i thought you hated me when we met.
i know you can.
i'm afraid.
not of that. i'm afraid.  you'll disappear. that i'll lose you.
stupid lamb.
how long have you been like this?
where'd he find you?
does someone have to be dying to become like you?.
so carlisle's the reason why you hunt animals, instead of people.
show off.
can they all read minds, too?
your house? with your family?
but.  what if they don't like me?
i'm glad i amuse you.
what is it?
come to visit your truck?
a person did that?
it's.  wonderful.
no.  not moats. he takes her hand. she girds herself. they head inside.
it's so light and open.
bon giorno?
oh, absolutely
i just assumed -- because you don't eat, you know.
i would never, ever tell anyone.
 badly?
and you're jasper, right?
graduation caps?
what a nightmare, repeating high school.
so you're obsessed with music. but.
ever?
depends. alternative? jazz? sixties, seventies.
i'd have to say.  debussy.
no dancing.
no tripping, no falling, no derision.
you don't scare me.
don't you dare -
in theory.
everyone's staring.
sorry i'm late. biology project.
order one for yourself next time. you should cut back on the steak.
yeah, me, too.
he's just a friend.
we're not really going to talk about boys, are we?
so spring training's going well?
actually, forks is kind of growing on me.
maybe.
well.  he is kind of a history buff.
i, uh.  have to go.
i'll call you later, mom.
how did you get in here?
you've been here before?
you're a peeping tom! perv!
oh.  i'm.  oh.
wish i could say the same. i'm so embarrassed.
i have a date with edward cullen.
we're both juniors. i thought you liked the cullens.
edward doesn't live in town. and it's in the early stage and -
he wants to meet you. officially.
be nice, okay? he's.  important.
no fair, reading charlie's mind.
and since when do vampires like baseball?
now i get why you need the thunder.
that has to be a home run.
yer out?
i said, leave me alone!
get out! it's over.
i have to get out of this place. out of forks. i'm leaving. now.
i can't hurt him.
no, dad.
i broke up with him.
that's why i have to leave. i don't want this. i want to go home.
she'll come home. i'll call her from the road.
i want to drive. i need time to think. i'll pull into a motel in a few hours. i promise.
his face.  i said the same words my mother used when she left him.
if any of you get hurt because of me
i wish he'd call.
they could get hurt. it's not worth it.
how do the visions work? edward said they weren't always certain.
so the course james is on now will lead him to.  a ballet studio?
no. i don't know. i used to take ballet lessons as a kid. the school had an arch like that.
yeah, around the corner from my house. but i haven't been there in ten years.
no. hell, no. i hated the place.
edward. are you alright?
no.  we can't. when will you get here?
mom, i'm so glad you got my -
calm down, mom. everything is fine, okay? i'll explain every
 mom? are you there?
leave my mother out of this.
i.  don't think so.
where should i meet you?
8th and palo verde, please.
everyone makes fun of me.
mom, i suck.
she's not here.
edward has nothing to do with this.
no! edward, don't.
it's on fire! my hand!
it's burning!
life.  is harder.
edward? where's -
what.  happened?
sounds like me.
mom, you're.  texting.
that's great mom.
mom, wait. i want to live in forks. i have dad.
what do you think?
um, mom, would you mind getting dad?
is james - did you -- ?
i'm alive because of you.
but you did.
what? no! i want to be with you!
you really are trying to kill me.
you're serious.
at prom.
edward.  why did you save me? if you'd let the venom spread, i could've been like you by now.
i want you. always.
i'm dying anyway. every minute, i get closer, older
not the way alice saw it. i heard her. she saw me like you.
based on what someone decides. and i've decided.
i dream about being with you forever.
yes.
yes.
for now.
No one will surrender tonight. But I won't give in. I know what I want.
