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. You never eat food, or drink, or come out in the sunlight. How old are you?
EDWARD
Seventeen.
BELLA
How long have you been seventeen?
EDWARD
... A while.
BELLA
I know what you are.
EDWARD
Say it. Out loud. Say it.
BELLA
... Vampire
EDWARD
Are you afraid?
BELLA
No.
EDWARD
Then ask me the most basic question: what do we eat?
BELLA
You won't hurt me. You're different.
EDWARD
You think you know me?You will see what I look like in the light of the sun.
BELLA
No! The sunlight will kill you.
EDWARD
This is why we don't show ourselves in sunlight..This is what I am.
BELLA
You're... beautiful..
EDWARD
Beautiful? I'm a killer, Bella. This is the skin of a killer.
BELLA
I don't believe that.
EDWARD
Because you believe the lie. The camouflage. I'm the world's most dangerous predator. Everything
about me invites you in - my voice, my face, even my smell. As if I need any of that..I'm designed to kill.
BELLA
I don't care.
EDWARD
I've killed people.
BELLA
It doesn't matter.
EDWARD
I wanted to kill you. I've never wanted a human's blood so much in my life. I'm dangerous to you.
BELLA
I trust you.
EDWARD
Me, and my family, we're different from others of our kind. We're not nomadic, we have a permanent home. We only hunt animals. We've learned to control our thirst..But you - your scent, it's like a drug to me... my own personal brand of heroin.
And so the lion fell for the lamb.

We're making Italiano for you.
EDWARD
This is Esme, my mother for all intents and purposes.
BELLA
Bon giorno?
ESME
Molto bene!
DR. CULLEN
You've given us an excuse to use the kitchen for the first time.
ESME
I hope you're hungry.
BELLA
Oh, absolutely
EDWARD
She already ate.
ROSALIE
Perfect.
BELLA
I just assumed -- because you don't eat, you know..
ESME
Of course. That was very considerate of you.
ROSALIE
Yes, let's keep pretending this isn't dangerous for all of us.
BELLA
I would never, ever tell anyone.
DR. CULLEN
She knows that.
EMMETT
The problem is, you two have gone public now, so..
ESME
Emmett.
ROSALIE
No, she should know.The entire family will be implicated if this ends badly.
BELLA
... Badly?Oh. Badly. Like, where I become a meal.
ALICE
Hi, Bella!I'm Alice. You do smell good.
EDWARD
Alice.
ALICE
It's alright, Bella and I are going to be great friends.
This is Jasper.
JASPER
Pleasure to meet you.
ALICE
You won't hurt her, Jasper.
EDWARD
I'll give you a tour of the house.

ESME
Good thing you're here. We need a umpire.
EMMETT
She thinks we cheat.
ESME
I know you cheat. Call ‘em as you see ‘em, Bella.
ALICE
It's time.
BELLA(to Esme)
Now I get why you need the thunder.
BELLA
That has to be a home run.
ESME
Edward's very fast.
BELLA
You out?
ALICE
Stop! I didn't see them...
ALICE
They're traveling so quickly .
ROSALIE
You said they left the county.
ALICE
They did, but then they heard us...and changed their minds.
EDWARD(to Bella)
Put your hair down .
ROSALIE
Like that'll help. I could smell her from across the field.
EDWARD
I shouldn't have brought you here. I'm so sorry.
LAURENT
I believe this belongs to you.He tosses the ball to Dr. Cullen who easily catches it and smiles politely.
DR. CULLEN
Thank you.
LAURENT
Could you use three more players?
DR. CULLEN
Of course.
LAURENT
I'm Laurent. This is Victoria. And James.
DR. CULLEN
Would you like to bat first?
I'm afraid your hunting activities have caused something of a mess for us.
LAURENT
Our apologies. We didn't realize the territory had been claimed.
DR. CULLEN
Yes, we maintain a permanent residence.
LAURENT
Really? Well, we won't be a problem any more.
VICTORIA
The humans were tracking us, but we led them East-
JAMES
You brought a snack.
DR. CULLEN
The girl is with us.
LAURENT
We won't harm her.
EMMETT
Just try it.
DR. CULLEN
I think it best if you leave.
LAURENT
Yes, I can see the game is over. We'll go now. James?
