I sighed looking at the set of photos in front of me. They were so worn out that I wondered how much longer they would last. Looking over them again, I wished I could just cry away all the memories that I had both good and the bad. I suddenly felt movement next to me. I glanced over at Bella smiling. She was smirking in her sleep. I wonder what she was dreaming. "Edward give me back my trix. Your not the rabbit from the commerical..if you were you wouldn't be so shiny, but fuzzy." She mumbled rooling over. "No I'd rather have you shiny, than fuzzy Edward." she mumbled again. I laughed silently at her talking.
"What are you laughing at?" I heard her grumble into the pillow. I quickly grabbed the pictures that laid sprawed across my lap and put them in a pile on the nightstand. "Nothing, Bella, just listening to you talk again." I mused. She groaned again before rooling back over to look at me. I could see fear in her eyes. "What did I say?" I laughed again at her reaction as I pushed some hair away from her eyes.
"Nothing really, but I am curious love, do you prefer me shiny or fuzzy?" I questioned, making my eyes as innocent as possible. Her eyes went wide as a blush crept across her face. It was early morning, so I could easily see as her face turned different shades of red.
"Its early yet, why don't you try and go back to sleep." I replied, grabbing the small pile of pictures and holding them tightly to my chest with my hand..
She sat up a little, apparently not wanting to go back to sleep. "What are those?" she asked pointing to the pile in my hand. For a second my eyes went wide. Dang, I had forgot to put them away.
This was something that no one but myself ever saw. Sure the family knew I had it, but every time they asked to see, I would find some excuse to hide it from them.
I sighed. I hoped that an excuse would work."Just pictures." I said holding them tighter in my hand. I felt her gaze on me. "What kind of pictures?" she asked, not trying to hide the curousity in her voice. I knew it was a useless attempt to try and lie to her. I almost smiled at the thought. Bella, was more preseptive than that.
I turned on the light with my free hand and slowly let the pile down onto my lap. Bella was now sitting fully up next to me, looking carefully at the photos.
"Can I see them. I promise to be careful." she asked. I smiled a little and nodded as she gently took the picures from my lap. I pulled her up from her spot to take their place as she shifted through the photos, while my chin rested on her shoulder, gazing between her and them.
"Who is this?" She asked quietly, looking at a picture that contained a woman and a small child. Her hair was straight and she wore a long flowing skirt, while the little boy was dressed in a little tuexdo. His arms were wrapped around the woman's neck looking straight ahead, giving a goofy smile. While the woman smiled naturally.
"That's my mother, Elizabeth, and that's me. According to the writing on the back. I was seven when this was taken." I sighed to myself, because all I had was the pictures now. I could barely remember anything from when human, but I didn't tell that to Bella.
I heard her laugh a little. "Aw Edward you are so adorable." she said. looking at the picture again. "And your mother was so beautiful." she whispered. "She looks so much like you."
I wrapped my arms around her tighter and buried my head into her shoulder. I wish I could remember how she looked at other times. But as much as I tried I just couldn't. "I wish I could remember her." I mumbled outloud. It took me a second to realize I had said that outloud, but it was already to late. I felt Bella stiffen in my arms. She gently put the pictures back on the night stand before turning to face me.
"You don't remember your mother?' she asked. I shook my head. "I don't really remember anything from my human life." I whispered, my voice cracking a few time. I wish I could. The feeling of not knowing. Not even contemplating anything from my past, was a hole that lingered in my heart for the last hundred years.
I closed my eyes tightly. Suddenly I felt warm arms wrap around me. It was then I realized I was crying. Not with tears, but with silent tears that only fell inside of my heart.

I hugged him tightly after everything he had told me. I couldn't imagine how hard it must have been for him to not be able to remember things like his family. I wondered if I would forget when I became one of his family.
I pushed the thoughts to the back of my mind as Edward hugged himself closer to me, dry sobs rippling through him.
"It's alright." I whispered rubbing his back. I mentally slapped myself. Of course it wasn't going to be alright, but he didn't seem to notice it.
"I can tell you something though." I continued, trying to figure out what to say. It wasn't everyday that the tides were turned in our relationship when I wasn't being the one conforted.
He took a deep breath, nodding into the crook of my neck. "I can tell you, that even though you might not remember her, I bet you resemble her in every which way. Who ever she was raised you to be a great, loving, and caring person. You don;t have to try to remember who or what she looked like, all you have to do is look in the mirror and they will all be right there." .I replied.
He was silent for a few moments, as I continued to rub his back soothingly. Finally he pulled away to look at me. His lips were on my then. Like every other time, my heart thudded against my chest, ready to burst at any second. After a few seconds he broke away to let me breath, but his hands found the side of my face.
"Your right...everything you said is right. I can't believe I didn't see it before." He said smiling. I smiled back nodding. "And I meant every single word." I whispered.
