The Biggest Ego
-Bella's POV
"There is no way that that will fit me!" I screamed at Edward.
He looked so down, so... disappointed.
But there is no way that the thing will fit me. No. Way.
"Bella..." he started.
"No, Edward. End of discussion." I used my 'serious' voice to tell him that I meant what I said.
The thing was just too precious, too unique. So special... I can't bring harm to it... it was too large for me.
He looked at me pleadingly.
"Bella, please, I can't... I want... please."
"I can't Edward..."
"Bella, you're killing me..."
"I'm sorry Edward, it's too wide... it won't fit."
"But..."
"No 'buts' Edward," I cut him off.
"I'm yours ok? We don't need to show the world that I'm a soon to be Cullen."
"That may be the case for you. But-" his eyes took on a hard glint as I cut him off- again.
"Edward," I began.
"Bella," he started seriously. "You're crushing my heart, killing my ego."
"Well your ego will just have to live with it." I countered.
"Bella, please... no one will have to know."
"Edward, they'll know. Trust me. With a thingthat big, they'll notice. I'm sure of it."
Edward looked down sadly at the thing.
"Bella, I thought that we talked this through..."
"I'm so sorry, but I might do something that will damage it..." I gulped.
"Bella, it's one of the hardest things in the world. Nothing can cut through it. Not even my teeth."
I looked at it closely, not actually believing what he said. But if that's true then...
No. I can't. I might... I might...
"You will not lose it." He growled at me.
I gulped. "You really think so?" I asked while reaching out to grasp the thing.
We both gasped as our skin came to contact. His cold hand enveloping mine and placing the thing securely over my ring finger...
"It's so beautiful..." I gushed.
"It fits you perfectly..." he breathed in my ear.
I looked at the engagement ring... so unique, so artfully designed. His family heirloom. His mother's engagement ring. I thought that I was too skinny to fit it... the silver band that surprisingly felt warm and the diamond that adorned it perfectly... The shoulders are stylized double leaves; flanking the centre diamond... it was exquisite. It was perfect...
It was...
"Yours," Edward said with a satisfied smirk on his face.
I looked at him breathlessly for a second or two before I smiled and rested my head on his shoulder.
"Mine." I sighed contentedly.
