definitely
something to celebrate.
- Yeah, but my aging's not.
- Your aging?
I think 18 is a little young
to start worrying about that.
Its one year older than you.
No, it isn't. I'm 109.
Well, maybe I shouldn't be dating
such an old man.
Iќs gross. I should be
thoroughly repulsed.
Uh-huh.
- We have to go to class.
- Okay.
Wait a second.
Someone wants you.
- JACOB: Bella!
- Jacob!
What?
I'll leave you to talk.
Hello, biceps! You know,
anabolic steroids are really bad for you.
Well, I'm just filling out, Bella.
You know, it wouldn't seem so drastic
if we hung out more.
You should switch schools.
You can come hang out with the palefaces.
I'm all right.
I prefer the rez school's exclusivity.
They let any old riffraff
into this place.
- I see. Then why are you slumming it?
- Mmm-hmm.
I was just buying a part for the Rabbit.
You should really come
take a ride when iќs done.
Is it fast?
Uh.
Iќs decent.
- I'm kidding.
- Okay. Good.
Hey, happy birthday.
Your dad told my dad, so...
Yeah, of course he did.
I saw this the other day
and thought of you.
Catches bad dreams.
Thaќs kind of perfect.
Thank you.
No problem.
- Good seeing you.
- Yeah, I'll see you later.
Bye.
So how come Jacob Black
gets to give you a gift and I don't?
Because I have nothing
to give back to you.
Bella, you give me everything
just by breathing.
See? Thank you.
- Thaќs all I want.
- ALICE: Bella!
- Happy birthday!
- Shh, shh!
I thought I said no presents.
I've already seen you open it,
and guess what,
you love it.
You're gonna wear it tonight. Our place.
Come on. Please? Lќll be fun.
- Okay. All right.
- Great!
Okay, I'll see you at 7:00.
Jasper, no fair with
the mood control thing.
Sorry, Bella. Happy...
Never mind.
You can't trust vampires. Trust me.
ROMEO: O my love! My wife!
Death, that hath sucked
the honey of thy breath
hath had no power yet upon thy beauty.
Thou art not conquered.
Beauty's ensign yet is crimson
in thy lips and in thy cheeks.
And death's pale flag
is not advanced there.
BELLA: I hate being celebrated.
EDWARD: There are worse tragedies.
I mean, look at Romeo.
Killed his true love
out of sheer stupidity.
BELLA: Yeah.
Though I do envy him one thing.
BELLA: Juliet is, like, perfect.
If you like
that obviously beautiful sort of thing.
Not the girl, the suicide.
Iќs nearly impossible for...
For some people.
For humans, a little poison,
a dagger to the heart.
There's so many different options.
Why would you say that?
Because I had to consider it once.
I didn't know if I'd get to you in time.
I had to come up with some kind of plan.
What was the plan?
That I'd go to Italy
and provoke the Volturi.
- The what?
- The Volturi.
MR. BERTY: Now, who'd like to repeat
the last few lines of iambic pentameter
just to show they were paying attention?
Mr. Cullen?
Yes, Mr. Berty.
"O here will I set up my everlasting rest
"and shake the yoke of inauspicious stars
from this world-wearied flesh.
"Eyes, look your last.
"Arms, take your last embrace!
"And, lips, O you, the doors of breath,
"seal with a righteous kiss a dateless
bargain to engrossing death!"
Eyes on the screen, people.
ROMEO: Thus with a kiss I die.
The Volturi are a very old,
very powerful family.
I guess they're the closest thing
to royalty my world has.
- Is that Carlisle?
- Yeah.
He lived with them for a few decades.
Described them as very refined.
No respect for human life, of course,
but a respect for the arts
and the sciences, at least.
And the law.
Above all, the law.
BELLA: Vampires have laws?
EDWARD: Not very many.
And only one thaќs regularly enforced.
BELLA: What is it?
EDWARD: That we keep the existence
of our kind a secret.
We don't make spectacles of ourselves,
and we don't kill conspicuously.
Unless, of course, you want to die.
You gotta stop talking about that.
I can't even think
about someone hurting you.
Bella, the only thing that can hurt me
