Waking up to his scent felt like irresistible bliss. Every morning would be like this from now on. Edward and I are legally to be forever and ever. We were in his room, on his golden bed, the most comfortable bed I've ever laid in.
Last night was the most spectacular night of my life. As newly weds, we spent our first romantic night together. I laid in his arms opening my eyes to take in the morning sunlight, something I wouldn't be able to enjoy in my later life.
"Up already, my dear?" His sweet scintillating voice filled my ears. His words sounded like a lullaby that was meant for me only.
I turned to face him as he kissed my forehead. "You are so much prettier than ever. Not that you weren't before, but now that you're mine, I feel so much closer to you."
I wanted to speak in return but my morning voice would come out like a murmur, almost a low growl, how embarrassing. In return, I smiled the nicest of smiles that I could. Before he tried to kiss me, I had to wash up. I hated morning breath.
Slipping out from under the covers, I headed for the bathroom. "Do come back shortly," Edward called out from the bed, still under the covers.
I came back to find him sitting on his computer chair dressed in his dark blue jeans and a black t-shirt. His hair was gelled and rustled and combed towards the back. He sat there, smiling at me. I couldn't help but be mystified by his topaz eyes.
"Sorry for taking so long," I told him.
"You weren't long at all, my dear. But I'm glad that you're here now."
He called me over to him, I knew what he wanted. I sat on his lap, gazing into his eyes as his face moved towards mine. He searched my face. "I love you more than ever," his breath brushed my lips.
"I love you too," I replied as I teasingly kissed him. His hands ran down my back and then to my sides. "That was a lot of fun last night, you know."
"Lots and I'm sure it shall happen again soon," he mouthed against mine. He then came to a halt. "Alice is wondering why we haven't come down yet."
"Does Alice not remember what happened yesterday? I specifically told her to not expect us down too early," I laughed.
Edward smiled in return. "Poor Alice. She wants everything to be perfect. You know, she just finished making breakfast for you. She figured you'd be hungry since you hadn't eaten since yesterday afternoon."
"We should go down. She's done a lot for us, especially me. I only wish I could enjoy her meal with you."
"How I wish I could do everything I can with you. Soon enough, like you wanted, it shall happen."
I froze at his words.
"What's wrong?"
"Nothing, I just—" I stopped. "Never mind. I just completely forgot about—never mind, I can't wait to become one of you. We can spend the rest our million years of life together, for as long as we want."
Edward stared at me for a little longer than expected. "No matter what you choose, I still love you."
"What do you mean, what I choose, you know what I want already."
Edward paused in thought. "I know, my dear. Whenever you're ready, you'll let me know," he said as he led me towards the door.
We headed down the stairs. Edward held my hand as he led me. Alice was waiting at the bottom. "I can't believe it Bella. You guys are married!"
Alice ran to the kitchen and brought back a plate full of pancakes, designed in the shape of a crescent moon with syrup. "All night, I stayed back and made these for you. Cooking is actually kind of fun, Bella."
"Thank you so much Alice," I told her as we walked to the table. Edward took out my chair for me. I sat down and started to eat. I had no idea I was this hungry. The pancakes were delicious as well. I started to chow down on it.
"Well, Alice I think you've got your answer," Edward said.
Alice smiled at Edward. I could tell they were talking with each other telepathically.
Eating the pancakes made me remember Charlie. The first time he ever made me breakfast was the time he made pancakes. They tasted like the first time someone decided to cook but all in all, I knew he meant well. Charlie was a great person and I knew I would miss him a lot. I didn't want to start thinking of him right now because I knew I would start to tear up, something I didn't want to do at this moment with Alice and Edward sitting right next to me.
"Why can't I stay here today?" Alice demanded.
"Why are you being so loud?" Edward retorted.
"What's up with you two?" I asked.
"Your husband wants me to go hunting with Emmet and Jasper so he could take you somewhere 'special' as if I can't come either. Tell him you want me to go too," she said.
"Where are you taking me?" I asked Edward.
"It's a surprise but it was only intended for me and you not me, you, and Alice," he said calmly.
"You know what fine! I'm gone. I guess leaving you two alone is what I should do from now on. Hope you enjoyed your breakfast. I'm sure Edward's going to be cooking it from now on," Alice shrieked as she loudly left the table.
"Don't mind Alice. She's just scared that she'll feel left out now that we're together," Edward whispered.
"I DO NOT!" Alice yelled from her room.
