Ice Cream

Bella clung to her mother's leg as they made their way down the hallway to the kindergarten class rooms. Bella was terrified of going to school. She had gone to pre-school for 2 days out of the week last year, but she wasn't ready to be away from her mommy for more then that.

"Mommy, please please please don't make me go!!!!" she wailed, "I'll be good I promise! I don't want to go!"

Renee just shook her head. She hated hearing her daughter cry like this, but Bella needed to go to kindergarten. Eventually she would have to be separated from Renee to go to school. Besides, she knew Bella would like school once she learned to get past her separation issues. She was a smart little girl.

Bella held on for dear life as Renee talked to the teacher, Ms Johns. The week before she had been excited to get new clothes and crayons and pencils that said her name on them. Her mother even bought her a backpack with Cinderella on it. But now that she was at school, Bella wasn't happy anymore.

Renee pried the little girl off her leg and bent down to give her a hug and a kiss goodbye. Bella was still crying and resumed begging to go home. Renee told her that if she was good when school was over Renee would take them to go get a bowl of ice cream, and that Bella could get any kind of sprinkles that she wanted. Sniffing, Bella agreed to be good and draw a picture. She finally released Renee and decided to put her Cinderella backpack in the cubby Ms Johns showed her. It had a purple name tag on it the said Isabella Swan on it.

After she put her backpack up, Bella went and sat at a table that had crayon's and markers on it. There was also construction paper and glue. Bella set to work on the picture her mommy asked her to do. She swung her legs back and forth and hummed a song she'd heard on Sesame Street that morinig.

"That picture is stupid." said a voice from behind her. The voice belonged to a boy with curly brown hair. Bella looked down at what she'd been drawing. It was her and mommy eating ice cream.

"No it's not!" she told him. "My mommy says I'm the best drawer ever. You couldn't make a better picture!"

The boy was shocked. He could so draw better. He told Bella so, and that her mommy was a liar because his mommy told him he was the best drawer.

Bella ran away with her drawing. That boy was soooo mean! She decided to hide in the corner, so he would leave her alone. When she got to the corner by her cubby she put the drawing in her backpack, then sat down and cried.

"Why are you sad?" She heard someone say

Bella looked up. The boy standing in front of her had cool hair. It was a red brown color and it looked like his mommy hadn't made him comb it. He also had really big green eyes.

"I'm sad because I want my mommy and that boy over there was mean to me" Bella told him. "You have cool hair" she added on.

The boy smiled "Thank you, my name is Edward. I'm gonna go tell Emmett that he has to say sorry to you, he's my cousin."

Bella smiled, "My name is Bella. You don't have to make him say sorry. I'm okay now."

The two six year olds smiled at each other. Edward decided that he wanted to be Bella's friend, and that she was pretty. He liked her blue bow that was on her ponytail. He was going to ask her if she wanted to play with blocks when the teacher said they could go outside.

Bella was playing hopscotch with Edward when Emmett came over. He watched them play for a while. Then he decided that Edward wasn't playing with him enough and took Bella's bow.

"Come and get it!" he yelled while running away.

Edward immediately ran to get the pretty blue bow. He was faster then Emmett and tackled him. Once he got the bow back, he made Emmett say sorry to her.

"I'm sorry for taking your bow Bella" Bella giggled. Emmett was bigger then Edward, but he looked at Edward for approval. Edward smiled and they all decided to go play on the swings.

At lunch Edward gave Bella part of the cookie that his mommy gave him. Bella let him drink some of her chocolate milk. Then Edward asked her a question

"Bella, you are pretty. And I like your bow. Do you want to be bestest friends with me?" Bella said yes.

When the two had free time, Edward asked Bella to play blocks with him. Bella said that she would only play blocks if they could have a Cinderella castle. Edward said that a castle would be cool.

At the end of the day Renee came in, afraid that she would find Bella in tears. Instead she saw Bella playing pretend with a little boy with bronze hair. Renee then saw her friend Elizabeth, they hadn't talked in a while and she wondered if Elizabeth's son went here.

"Elizabeth!" she called out, "I didn't know your boy came here!"

The two women chatted as they waited for their kids to come out of the room. They decided that they would go to ice cream together.

"Mommy Mommy Mommy!!!!" Bella yelled when she got out of the class room. "I drew you a picture and was good and played with blocks! I have a bestest friend! His name is Edward. Can he come and eat ice cream with us? Please? Please please please? Edward has really cool hair! You should see it! Mommy can he come with us PLEASE!!!"

Renee laughed and looked over at Elizabeth. Her son Edward was doing basically the same thing, asking to go eat ice cream with Bella. When the children found out they could have ice cream together they danced around and hugged each other.

At the baskin robins the two mothers saw the cutest thing. Edward and Bella were sitting up in a booth next to each other. They were sharing ice cream. Then Edward told Bella she was the prettiest girl ever and that he didn't think that she had any cooties at all.

"I think that they are gonna get married" Renee said to Elizabeth.

"That would be darling, look how adorable they are!" Elizabeth replied.

Years later Edward took Bella to the Baskin Robins. The were sharing a bowl of strawberry ice cream when he got down on one knee.

"Bella you are the most beautiful girl ever. You are my light and my life. I will love you forever. Will you marry me?"

And Bella said yes.
