Chapter 1: Cooking
I stepped out of the shiny Volvo we rode in and walked into the beautiful mansion. It seemed like every time I stepped into their house I still got that same shock as when I had first seen it. The room was just as clean as ever and the house seemed to sparkle like Edward. All of Edward's beautiful family stood in the room, probably awaiting our arrival.
"Hello. Did you two have fun?" Carlisle asked.
"Yes. The movie was……. interesting." Edward said.
"Bella?"
"I loved it." I said.
"Are you tired?" Edward asked.
"No." I lied.
"Come on, let's go upstairs."
"Kay."
Edward held my hand as I followed him upstairs to his room. When we got in, I plopped myself onto his comfy bed. He sat next me and wrapped his cool arms around me.
"You're sure that you aren't tired?"
"Fine, I give up. Of course I'm tired."
We both lay on his bed and he kissed my forehead. Then he hummed my lullaby. It soothed me and I closed my eyes.
"I love you." He whispered in my ear.
"I know that. I love you, too."
"If we could actually have kids, then how many would you want?"
"Probably two or three." I answered.
"I've always wanted a big family. It's a shame that I can't have one."
Well, you do have Carlisle, Esme, Rosalie, Emmett, and Alice."
"That doesn't count. I want a family of my own."
"We will try after the wedding, right?"
"Of course, I already promised that."
"I can't wait until the wedding, are you excited?"
"Yes, love, of course I'm excited."
"I'm kind of disappointed, though."
"Why?"
"I'm disappointed in Jake. I really want him to come. He's my best friend and I want him to be there for one of the happiest days of my life. I can't believe he ran off to Canada."
"Well, if he was a true friend then he would be there."
"True."
Edward rubbed my back and hummed my lullaby some more. I dozed off and fell asleep.
I woke up to Edward's gorgeous face and then I suddenly remembered that I wasn't at home. Oops! Time for the wrath of Charlie.
"Good morning, love. How'd you sleep?" he asked.
"Good morning, Edward. I slept great, but I forgot….."
"Don't worry. I called him last night after you fell asleep and told him that you and Alice were having a sleep- over."
"Thank you. I love you."
"I love you, too."
I leaned against his hard, cold chest and closed my eyes again. I felt so safe in his arms. I wanted to stay there forever.
"You should eat. What do you want?" he asked.
"I'll have cereal."
He lifted me up and carried me downstairs. I suddenly smelled eggs and bacon.
"Edward, did you cook all of this for me?"
"Yes. Who else would I have cooked it for?"
"Thank you!"
I looked at all the food, wondering what to eat first. Of course, I wouldn't be able to eat it all, so I did my best. I ate fast, trying not to make him wait long. I couldn't believe how good it was!
"I had no idea that you could cook." I said.
"I've been able to cook for a while."
"How'd you learn?"
"Saw it on TV."
"Oh."
"Are you ready to go to your house now?"
"Yea, but why would I need to go home?"
"We have plans for the day."
"Ooh! What are we doing?"
"We are going to our special place."
Not hiking again. He knew that I'm no good at it.
"You know I'm no good at hiking, right?"
"Yes. That's why I'll carry you. It will be much faster."
"Okay."

What do you think? The last story I wrote wasn't descriptive enough according to some people. Is this any better?
