Chapter 1
"Mommy, can I marry daddy when I'm old enough?" Renee smiled at her young daughter's innocence, to have the innocence of a child again.
"No, honey, daddy is married to me," Renee laughed tucking young Bella Swan in her bed. Bella had just turned five, the day had been spent celebrating this beautiful young girl. How had so much time passed? To Renee, it seemed like Bella had just been born.
"Can I have him when you're through with him?" Bella asked laying her head down on her pillow and staring at her mother with those big, brown eyes that she had inherited from her father.
"I'll never be through with him," Renee laughed and ran her hand down Bella's hair. "Now, time for bed little one."
"Will you sing to me?" This was the question that Renee never got tired of being asked, she loved singing her to daughter to sleep.
"Of course my love. But then it's time for bed," Bella nodded and waited for the melody to begin. "Lavender's blue, dilly, dilly, lavender's green, when I am king, dilly, dilly, you shall be queen. If you love me, dilly, dilly, I will love you."
"Good night, mom," Bella whispered and waited for her mom to leave before getting up to run to her window to see nighttime sky. The sky held such fascination for this young girl, it was a place that was so infinite that Bella wondered if it had any end. Bella gave one look behind her, to make sure no one was coming, before looking at the sky again.
Picking one star, Bella began to say the words that she had said every night since the day that she could talk. "Starlight, star bright, first star I see tonight. I wish I may, I wish I might, have the wish I wished tonight. I wish that I could find a man like my daddy."
Hearing footsteps, Bella ran from the window and jumped back into her bed so she wouldn't get in trouble. When the footsteps passed, Bella sighed with relief and opened her eyes to continue to stare out her window at the sky as much as she could.
"Hello there Bella," Bella turned in her bed to see a man standing there wearing a big hat with a fancy suit. Questions entered Bella's mind, why was he wearing such funny clothes? How had he gotten in here?
"Who are you?" Bella asked watching as he sat down on the edge of the bed and smiled at her. In her mind, she knew she should be scared that someone strange was in her room. However, she felt completely comfortable with him, he seemed so familiar to her. His eyes had this effect that calmed her down in an instant, Bella had never seen that shade of green.
"My name is Edward, I'm here to make sure your wish come true. For now, just sleep." This man, Edward, tucked her in but she wasn't tired now. She was way too curious to sleep now.
"Why are you dressed like that?" Bella asked cocking her head like a dog would.
"Why are you dressed like that?" Edward shot back with a crooked smile that Bella would be sure to remember. Before she could answer, he said, "Alright Bella, it's time for sleep. It's late."
"Will you stay until I fall asleep?" Bella asked to receive a nod in return from Edward. Reluctantly, Bella closed her eyes and listened to Edward's soft voice begin to sing the melody that Bella loved.
"I love to dance, dilly, dilly, I love to sing; when I am queen, dilly, dilly, you'll be my king. Who told me so, dilly, dilly, who told me so? I told myself, dilly, dilly, I told me so."
