Bella's POV
"Hey Edward, I'm going shopping with Alice," I informed him.
"Your going shopping with Alice?," he asked surprised. He knew how i was about shopping, and unnecessarily spending money, especially on me.
"I know, shocking right? But she just got in a fight with Jasper, over God knows what, and Emmett and Rosalie went hunting together, and i missed her being bubbly, so i decided i would lend a hand and make her happy again," I explained. We all knew how Alice was when she wasn't happy, and we didn't need to be physic to see where she ended up.
As i was speaking Edward took my hand and softly pulled me over to the piano. He sat me down gently next to him on the long black piano bench and started playing without a word.
It was beautiful, and his piano playing still knocked the breath out of me, but this piece was different, darker somehow, and it worried. It was nothing like his usual work.
As the notes slowly faded out he spoke softly.
"I wrote that the other day, do you like it?" he asked, barely audible. He looked up at me with his honey golden eyes, and there was deep emotion burning behind them. But what was it? Regret? Sorrow? Just plain sadness? This wasn't an emotion i had seen him wear before.
"It was beautiful, Edward," I said as I layed my head on his ice cold shoulder. I longed to ask him what was wrong, but there was something in his tone that told me he didn't want to talk and or think about it.
"Bella," he sighed. "My dearest Bella," That same unfamiliar tone burned behind his words too.
"I love you," he said. "Never forget that," he added. Why in the world would i forget something that was so important to me. Forgeting that he loved me would be like forgeting my name. It was impossible.
"I won't Edward," I vowed.
Just then Alice was next to me. I didn't see her show up, then again, with the Cullen's, you never do.
"You ready?" She asked. I have never seen her so sad before. Hopefully this trip would cheer her up, and get my mind off of whatever was wrong with Edward.
"Ya, let's go," I turned to Edward. "I'll come by later tonight. How about i tell Charlie that i am having a sleepover with Alice and we can spend the night together?" I asked.
"Sure," He said. His voice monotone.
"'Kay. I love you," I reminded him. I bent down to kiss him and he pulled me onto his stone lat and gently pressed his lips to mine. There was an urgency behind this kiss. He kissed me as if he hadn't seen me in months. It made me worried, more that i was already.
He gently broke the kiss, too soon as usual, and layed my head on his chest. As he patted my hair he said "I love you too, Bella. So very much. Have fun with Alice. I'll see you tonight." I gave him one final hug and went over to Alice at the doorway. "C'mon Alice. You can get me whatever you want," I said. I knew that would help brighten her up.
A slight smile twitched on the edge of her lips.
"Okay. Bye Edward," she said. I really hoped this was going to help. Both of us.
