I didnā€™t make the bracelet. Just the charm.
Bella: itā€™s beautiful. You made this? How?
Jacob: Itā€™s something Billy taught me. Heā€™s better at it than I am.
Bella: Thatā€™s hard to believe.
Jacob: Do you really like it?
Bella: Yes! Itā€™s unbelievable, Jake.
Jacob: Well, I figured that maybe it would make you remember me once and a while. You know how it is, out of sight, out of mind.
Bella: Here, help me put it on.
Jacob: Youā€™ll wear it?
Bella: Of course I will.
Jacob: Why are you so distracted?
Bella: Itā€™s nothing. Thanks for the present, really. I love it.
Jacob: Bella? Somethingā€™s going on, isnā€™t it?
Bella: Jake, Iā€¦no, thereā€™s nothing.
Jacob: Donā€™ lie to me, you suck at lying. You should tell me whatā€™s going on. We want to know these things.
Bella: Jacob, I will tell you. Just let me figure out whatā€™s happening, okay? I need to talk to Alice.
Jacob: The psychic saw something.
Bella: Yes, just when you showed up.
Jacob: Is this about the bloodsucker in your room?
Bella: Itā€™s related.
Jacob: You know something youā€™re not telling meā€¦something big.
Bella: Yes.
Jacob: Now. Explain.
Bella: Jacob, I donā€™t know everything.
Jacob: What do you know, then?
Bella: Alice!
Alice: I need to talk to you.
Bella: Erā€¦Jake, Iā€™ll see you later.
Jacob: Hey, not so fast.
Alice: Excuse me?
Jacob: Tell us what is going on. We have a right to know.
Alice: Itā€™s alright Jasper. He actually has a point. They are coming to Forks.
Jasper: We have a few advantages, dog. It will be an even fight.
Scene 9
Bella: That had to be the longest party in the history of the world.
Edward: Itā€™s over now.
Bella: Youā€™re taking me with you tonight.
Edward: Bella, youā€™re worn out.
Bella: You think I could sleep?
Edward: this is an experiment. Iā€™m not sure if it will be possible for us all to cooperate. I donā€™t want you in the middle of that.
Bella: If you wonā€™t take me, then Iā€™ll call Jacob. See you upstairs. Dad! Charlie!
Charlie: Emnemenem.
Bella: Iā€™m home now. Youā€™re going to hurt your back sleeping like that. Cā€™mon, time to move.
(She goes upstairs to bedroom)
Bella: Come here.
Edward: Please relax.
Bella: Sure.
Edward: This is going to work, Bella. I can feel it. Listen to me, Bella. This is going to be easy. The newborns will be completely taken by surprise. Someone may have to sit out.
Bella: Piece of cake.
Edward: Shhh. Youā€™ll see. Donā€™t worry now. Are you sure you donā€™t want to stay and sleep.
(She makes a sour look)
Bella: You know what I think?
Edward: No. What do you think?
Bella: I think itā€™s all connected. Not just the two, but all three.
Edward: Youā€™ve lost me.
Bella: Three bad things have happened since you came back. The newborns in Seattle, the stranger in my room, and, first of all, Victoria came to look for me.
Edward: Why do you think so?
Bella: Because I agree with Jasper, the Volturi love their rules. They would probably do a better job anyway. Remember when you were tracking Victoria last year?
Edward: Yes. I wasnā€™t very good at it.
Bella: Alice said you were in Texas. Did you follow her there?
Edward: Yes. Hmmā€¦Sheā€™ll never touch you Bella.
Scene 10
Bella: Edward?
Edward: Are you really awake this time?
Bella: Mmm. Have there been a lot of false alarms?
Edward: Youā€™ve been very restless. Talking all day.
Bella: All day?
Edward: You had a long night. Youā€™d earned a day in bed.
Bella: Wow.
Edward: Hungry? Do you want breakfast in bed?
Bella: Iā€™ll get it. I need to get up and move around. Ugh. Iā€™m a mess.
Edward: It was a long night. You should have stayed here and slept.
Bella: Right! And miss everything. You know, you need to start accepting the fact that Iā€™m part of the family now.
Edward: I could probably get used to that idea. May I?
Bella: Um, sure. Edward?
Edward: Yes?
Bella: I have to be in that clearing.
Edward: No.
Bella: Okay, look, Edward. Hereā€™s the thingā€¦Iā€™ve already gone crazy once. I know what my limits are. And I canā€™t stand it if you leave me again.
Edward: You know itā€™s not like that, Bella. I wonā€™t be far, and it will be over quickly.
Bella: I canā€™t stand it. And how do you not know that one of the vampireā€™s isnā€™t going there, and is going to look for my scent?
Edward: Itā€™s going to be easy, Bella.
Bella: You said it was so easy that someone could sit out. Did you really mean that?
Edward: Yes.
Bella: So easy that you could sit out?
Edward: Alice. Could you come babysit Bella for a bit? I need to speak with Jasper.
(Alice appears)
Alice: Youā€™re going to miss all the fun.
Edward: Hello, Alice.
(Edward kisses Bella)
Edward: Iā€™ll be back later tonight. Iā€™ll go work this out with the others, rearrange things.
Bella: Okay.
Alice: Thereā€™s not much to arrange. I already told them. Emmett is pleased.
Edward: Of course he is.
Bella: Iā€™m sorry. Do you think this will make it more dangerous for you?
Alice: You worry too much, Bella. Youā€™re going to go prematurely gray.
Bella: Why are you upset, then?
Alice: Edward is such a grouch when he doesnā€™t get his way. Iā€™m just anticipating living with him for the next few months. I suppose, if it keeps you sane, itā€™s worth it. But I wish you could control the pessimism, Bella. Itā€™s so unnecessary.
Bella: Would you let Jasper go without you?
Alice: Thatā€™s different.
Bella: Sure it is.
(Edward at door)
Bella: Did Alice tell you that sheā€™s kidnapping me again?
Edward: Actually, sheā€™s not. Iā€™m the only one who has permission to hold you hostage, remember? Alice is going hunting with the rest of them. I guess I donā€™t need to do that now.
Bella: Youā€™re kidnapping me?
Edward: Is that all right?
Bella: Wellā€¦sure, except for one thing.
Edward: What thing?
Bella: Why didnā€™t Alice tell Charlie you were leaving tonight?
Scene 11
Edward: For this one night, could we try to forget everything besides just you and me? It seems like I can never get enough time like that. I need to be with you. Just you.
(They start kissing as getting out of car and kiss standing in the entry for a while)
Edward: Welcome home.
Bella: That sounds nice.
Edward: I have something for you.
Bella: Oh?
Edward: A hand me down. Itā€™s up in my room. Shall I go get it?
Bella: Sure. Letā€™s go get it. Okay. Let me have it.
Edward: A hand-me-down.
Bella: (gasps)
Edward: It was my motherā€™s. I inherited quite a few baubles like this. Iā€™ve given some to Esme and Alice both. So, clearly, this is not a big deal in any way. But I thought it was a good representation. Itā€™s hard and cold. And it throws rainbows in the sunlight.
Bella: You forgot the most important similarity. Itā€™s beautiful.
Edward: My heart is just as silent. And it, too, is yours.
Bella: Thank you. For both.
Edward: No, thank you. Itā€™s a relief to have you accept a gift so easily. Good practice for you, too.
Bella: Can we discuss something? Iā€™d appreciate it if you could begin by being open minded.
Edward: Iā€™ll give it my best effort.
Bella: Iā€™m not breaking any rules here. This is strictly about you and me. So, I was impressed by how well we were able to compromise the other night. I was thinking I would like to apply the same principle to a different situation.
Edward: What would you like to negotiate? Listen to your heart fly. Itā€™s fluttering like a hummingbirdā€™s wing. Are you alright?
Bella: Iā€™m great.
Edward: Please go on then.
Bella: Well, I guess, first, I wanted to talk to you about that whole ridiculous marriage condition thing.
Edward: Itā€™s only ridiculous to you. What about it?
Bella: I was wonderingā€¦is that open to negotiation?
Edward: Iā€™ve already made the largest concession by far and away. Iā€™ve agreed to take your life away against my better judgment. And that ought to entitle me to a few compromises on your part.
Bella: No. That partā€™s a done deal. Weā€™re not discussing my renovations right now. I want to hammer out some other details.
Edward: Which details do you mean exactly?
Bella: Letā€™s clarify your prerequisites first.
Edward: You know what I want.
Bella: Matrimony.
Edward: Yes. To start with.
Bella: Thereā€™s more?
Edward: Well, if youā€™re my wife, then whatā€™s mine is yours, like tuition money. So there would be no problem with Dartmouth.
Bella: Anything else? While youā€™re already being absurd?
Edward: I wouldnā€™t mind some time.
Bella: No. No time. Thatā€™s a deal breaker right there.
Edward: Just a year or two.
Bella: Move along to the next one.
Edward: Thatā€™s it unless you want to talk carsā€¦I didnā€™t realize there was anything else you wanted besides being transformed into a monster yourself. Iā€™m extremely curious. Youā€™re blushing? Please, Bella, the suspense is painful. Bella?
Bella: Well, Iā€™m a little worried about after.
Edward: What has you worried?
Bella: All of you just seem so convinced that the only thing Iā€™m going to be interested in, afterward, is slaughtering everyone in town. And Iā€™m afraid Iā€™ll be so preoccupied with the mayhem that I wonā€™t be me anymore, and that I wonā€™t, I wonā€™t want you the same way I do now.
Edward: Bella, that part doesnā€™t last forever.
Bella: Edward, thereā€™s something that I want to do before Iā€™m not human anymore.
Edward: Whatever you want.
Bella: Do you promise?
Edward: Yes. Tell me what you want, and you can have it.
Bella: You.
Edward: Iā€™m yours.
(They start kissing so Bella can try and tell Edward what she wants to try before she is a vampire)
Edward: Be reasonable, Bella.
Bella: You promised, whatever I wanted.
Edward: Weā€™re not having this discussion.
Bella: I say we are.
Edward: I say weā€™re not.
Bella: You wanted to know.
Edward: I thought it would be something faintly realistic.
Bella: So you can ask for any stupid, ridiculous thing you want, like getting married, but Iā€™m not allowed to even discuss what Iā€¦
Edward: No. What now?
Bella: Nothing.
Edward: Did I hurt your feelings?
Bella: No.
Edward: You know why I have to say no. You know that I want you, too.
Bella: Do you?
Edward: Of course I do, you silly beautiful, oversensitive girl. Doesnā€™t everyone? I feel like thereā€™s a line behind me, jockeying for position, waiting for me to make a big enough mistake. Youā€™re too desirable for you own good.
Bella: Whoā€™s being silly now?
Edward: Do I have to send a petition around to get you to believe? Shall I tell you whose names would be on the top of the list? You know a few of them, but some might surprise you.
Bella: Youā€™re just trying to distract me. Letā€™s get back to the subject. Tell me if I have anything wrong. Your demands are marriage, paying my tuition, more time, and you wouldnā€™t mind if my vehicle went a little faster. Did I get everything? Thatā€™s a hefty list.
Edward: Only the first is a demand. The others are merely requests.
Bella: And my lone, solitary little demand isā€¦
Edward: Demand?
Bella: Yes, demand. Getting married is a stretch for me. Iā€™m not giving in unless I get something in return.
Edward: No. Itā€™s not possible now. Later, when youā€™re less breakable. Be patient, Bella.
Bella: But thatā€™s the problem. It wonā€™t be the same when Iā€™m less breakable. I wonā€™t be the same! I donā€™t know who Iā€™ll be then.
Edward: Youā€™ll still be Bella.
Bella: If
