"Yesterday I kiss you, and you attack me" - Edward

????

This is on Chapter 15 (The Cullens) where Edward is observing Bella's responses to his kisses. But I do not remember Bella attacking him after their first kiss in the meadow on chapter 13 (Confessions).

Am I wrong?

    She doesn't literally attack him. She is just so attracted to him that when he tries to kiss her, she lets her instincts take over and she leans into the kiss, wrapping her arms around his neck and weaving her hands through his hair. This is, of course, dangerous because it is very difficult for Edward to control himself around her, much less when she is so willing to be close to him.

    when he kissed her she had the reaction and kissed him back which neither of them knew she would do. she was kissing him with a lot of enthusiam and he wasnt prepared for that.
