Twilight (IV)

What do you think is the defining moment for the main character/person in you book? Why?

There are several scenes in Twilight that alter the following events. However, one scene alone completely transformed Bella and Edward's relationship, and everybody else's along with it. The night Bella travels to Port Angeles with her two friends changes everything. She goes off on her own in the creepy little town (stupid girl!), wanders off way too far, and ends up getting into trouble with some (I don't even know how to properly describe them) men. They begin by following her. Then, they split up and circle around her in an attempt to trap her. And I'm thinking that mugging was NOT on their mind. Right as they were about to pounce, Edward drives up -almost running the men over-, opens the door, and Bella hops in. What a rescue! And talk about perfect timing.

They go out to dinner, which is the first time their ever alone together. This, of course, gives them the chance to talk. That night Bella finds out about Edward being a vampire and all his other secrets. This scene determines the rest of the book. Once Bella made her decision to continue seeing Edward despite what he is, changes their relationship. The whole rest of the book occurs because of what happened that night in Port Angeles. After that night, they are practically inseparable.
