I was crouched behind the couch in the living room of mine and Edward's apartment awaiting the arrival of my dear husband and daughter. I had been in my hiding spot next to Alice and Rosalie for a while and my legs were starting to hurt but I ignored the pain. Finally I heard the key in the door and when it opened we all jumped up and shouted.

"Happy birthday Emma!"

Her face was shocked as she grabbed onto Edward's leg. But once she realized what was going on a huge smile crossed her face. She immediately ran to Emmett. We hadn't told her that he and Rosalie were in town for the sake of the surprise. Emma and Emmett had a very special bond that I never really understood. I think it had a lot to do with the fact that he was really just a big kid himself.

After Emmett's big bear hug she greeted all her cousins and friends that we had invited for the party. I had Alice start one of the games and I went into the kitchen to get the food, Edward followed. He came up behind me as I was putting the finishing touches on the veggie tray and wrapped his arms around my waist.

"How was daddy daughter day?"

"Great! We went to that park and got ice cream."

"How was that?"

"It was great. She had a ton of fun." He kissed my neck softly. "I stole you something."

"You stole me something from the park?" I looked at him in confusion.

"I stole you a piece of something." He pulled out a six inch strip of yellow caution tape and handed it to me. "They had part of the playground taped for construction so I took a piece."

I had to laugh because it was just too cute. I turned to him and he had a big grin on his face.

"I thought you wouldn't want to think about that night after what happened with my dad."

"Yeah that was awkward but your dad loves me now so it's all good." He wrapped his arms around me and pulled me close. "Do you think your dad would give us more of that tape? I wouldn't mind seeing that dress again." He said with a wiggle of his eyebrows.

"Yeah right. That was like twelve years ago I don't exactly have that body anymore."

"I happen to like your body just the way it is."

"Fine you want the tape you ask Charlie for it." He face scrunched up like he smelled something bad. "That's what I thought."

Alice came walking into the kitchen and quickly turned her back when she saw us so close.

"Sorry I didn't mean to intrude but you've got like twenty hungry six year olds out there."

"We're coming Alice."

The party was a great success and Emma had a wonderful time with all her friends and Emmett and Rosalie's kids. Jasper and Alice had a one year old and it was nice to have a small baby around again. I couldn't help but notice Edward spent a lot of time with little Abby and it made me wish he had been able to be around when Emma was that small.

It was finally time for cake and ice cream so we dimmed the lights while Edward brought in a pink princess cake with a big 6 on it. Sometimes I look at my little girl and it's hard to imagine that she's six years old already. It made me smile though, to know that she would have a great life. She had a father and a mother who loved her and it was defiantly a relief that Edward had enough money to support us.

By nine o'clock we had ushered out all the guests and were attempting to put a sugar high Emma in bed.

"Emma sweetie you need to brush your teeth and get ready for bed." Edward was trying his best to be patient with her. He always was so I just kept to cleaning and left him with the hyper toddler.

"Daddy will you read me a bed time story?" It still made my heart soar when I heard her call Edward daddy.

When Edward and I had gotten together it wasn't something we had pushed on her but one day she just walked up to him and said 'Are you my daddy now?'. He said he was if she wanted him to be and from that day on she has called him daddy. It was quite an adorable sight to see how Emma had Edward wrapped around her little finger. I spent the first month after we had moved in trying to convince him that we couldn't give her everything she wanted and had to say no sometimes. It killed him to tell her no and she knew it. She would play on his weakness if she really wanted something.

By ten thirty we had gotten her asleep and the apartment clean for the most part. It was time for us to go to bed so we headed into the bedroom and got into pjs. I snuggled into the bed next to him and he wrapped his arms around me and kissed the top of my head. This was my favorite part of the day. Just before bed cuddling up to my wonderful husband. I always felt safe with him and it made me happy in a way that I couldn't remember ever feeling.

"Bella, love, I wanted to talk to you about something." The tone of his voice worried me. We talked about everything but he sounded so unsure of my answer.

I just looked up at him so he would continue. "I love you and Emma more then anything in this world."

"I know that." I hoped encouraging him would help him get out whatever he was trying to say.

"And I truly do think of Emma as my own, I want you to know that. I just think that… I mean… I would like us to have another baby."

I was shocked. I guess I'd never really thought about it. We'd only been married for three months and I had just finished school. But we were both turning 30 this year so I guess time was ticking. Plus I didn't want to be one of those women that had a kid when there other child was old enough to have one of their own. So I guess it was a good idea.

After I had processed his request I gave him a smile and his tense face relaxed.

"I think that would be a great idea."

"Really?" I nodded. "Well then let's get started." He said as he rolled me onto my back and lay on top of me kissing my neck.

"Edward I'm on the pill and I took it today. There's no way I could get pregnant right now."

"Practice makes perfect Bella dear."

He had now worked his way down my neck to my shoulder where he was sliding my strap down with his hand. My hands went to his hair and pulled him closer. He moved his hands slowly down my sides until he reached the hem of my top. My both adjusted slightly so that he could remove it.

"You're so beautiful." He looked deep into my eyes before kissing me passionately.

He always made me feel gorgeous and wanted, and that added to my excitement when we made love like this.

I felt the need to explore his body to so I ran my hands up and down is muscular back. He moaned into my mouth at the contact and pushed his lower half into my spread legs to show me how aroused he was. Feeling how hard he was made me throw my head back breaking our kiss. Edward took this opportunity to kiss my exposed neck. Every time his lips touched me it was like fire erupted inside me. I had never felt anything like it. The simplest touch from Edward had the potential to turn me into a horny teenager. So when I had his full attention it sent my world spinning.

I was so concentrated on his lips that I didn't notice his hands at the waist of my shorts pulling them and my panties down. He slid them off quickly and started to kiss his way back up my leg. My whole body tensed as he reached high on my inner thigh very close to my throbbing desire. But I didn't want that tonight. I wanted us to be one, reaching pleasure together. I reached my hand down and brought his chin up so that our eyes met.

"I just want you tonight."

He nodded and kissed my lower stomach before moving up my body to kiss my lips again. I brought my hands to his hips and started to push them off his body. I got them most of the way off before he kicked them to the bottom of the bed. We were now both undressed and so ready to have each other.

He looked deep into my eyes again. "I love you." And he leaned down and kissed me in the most gentle way as he slowly pushed into me.

Being connected to him in this way was the best feeling of completion. He was my everything and he was perfect for me in every way.

He slowly started to work in and out and I moan in pleasure. This was going to be a long night of love making and I was content with that.

We weren't making a new life tonight but damn I was looking forward to all the trying later.

AN: I'll be here all week. Don't forget to tip your waiter… or in this case tip your author with a review.
