Disclaimer: I'm not SMeyer. I know, I know, tragic, isn't it?

A/N: So, I'm a little obsessed with Shakespeare and Twilight {dunno if you figured that out or not. lol!} And I thought, why not combine the two? What I got was a series of one-shots, based on Shakespeare's work, about life after marriage for Mr. & Mrs. Edward Cullen. I hope you like them.

"She's beautiful, and therefore to be wooed;
She is woman, and therefore to be won…"
Henry VI, Part 1
Act 5, Scene 2

"Bella, would you come here a minute, love?" I asked my wife.

"Sure," she said walking into the room. "I was just telling Jake and Nessie bye. They're going out somewhere."

"I know," I replied, "I asked them too."

"Really? Why?"

"I wanted to take my beautiful wife out on a date."

She smiled. "A date? You do realize that we are already married, right? You don't have to flatter me; you already have me."

I laughed. "Yes Bella, I do, in fact, realize that we are married. However, I wanted to do something for you anyway. As Shakespeare once wrote 'She's beautiful, and therefore to be wooed; she is woman, and therefore to be won.'"

"You've already won me though," she pointed out teasingly.

"Ah, but now I have to prove that I am worthy enough to keep you," I countered.

"You know I don't like people spending money on me," she complained.

"Who said anything about spending money? I haven't spent a dime on this. Would you like me to?" I really wish she would let me spoil her more; she deserves the world. I'd give it to her if she'd let me.

"No! No, it's fine," she exclaimed. "Whatever you had planned was fine."

I was excited. She was actually going to let me do something nice for her! I knew what I had planned was not much but maybe it would help her to relax a little.

"Well then, come with me." I took her by the hand and we ran to our meadow.

"Oh, Edward! This is beautiful!" Obviously she was pleased.

I came by earlier in the evening and lit candles all around our meadow. It was spring so there were all sorts of flowers in bloom. A blanket was laid in the middle of the clearing.

"Come love, let's go lay down." Still holding her hand, we walked over to the blanket and lay down to face the stars.

"Edward, it's beautiful out here. Thank you for this. It's been awhile since we've been able to just get time away for ourselves." I loved doing nice things for my beautiful Bella.

"Just wait a minute," I told her. "The real part of this evening is about to start."

"What do you mean?" she asked.

"Look." I pointed towards the heavens.

She gasped. "A shooting star! Oh, Edward! I've never really seen one before. And look another one!"

"I once compared my life to a moonless night and you to the meteor that lit up my world," I started gazing at my lovely wife. "I figured I would show you how magnificent they are and, by extension, you." I gently tapped her nose with my finger.

Her lips curled up into a dazzling smile. "Thank you, Edward. I love you so much."

My grin answered hers. "Anything for you, love."

We laid there in our meadow talking and holding each other whilst gazing up at the heavens till the sun rose and the meteor shower ended. I was glad to bring a little bit of happiness and peace to Bella's rather hectic life. And I would spend the rest of eternity finding new ways to make her smile.

And? What do ya think? I'm thinking this series is going to have about 5 one-shots in it; all fluff. They won't be in any particular order. It should be good. Why don't you review and share your thoughts and opinions? It would make me happy. Really it would.
