Just a short, cute fanfic about Edward's Birthday. I started with a different idea but it turned into this!
Declaimer: I do not own Twilight
Edward's birthday
BPOV
I reached into my schoolbag and pulled out the keys to my truck and flipped them to Edward. Yes Edward was driving, much to my dismay. The Cullens celebrated the days they "died" or became vampires instead of having birthdays. Today was Edward's he was officially 105. A/N I'm not sure how old Edward is, or the day he died, sorry. It doesn't matter too much in this story.
He grinned and picked me up running at top speed to my truck. I didn't protest, not today. Instead I rolled my eyes at him from the passenger seat. He drove at top speed to the Cullen house, pushing the truck to 75mph.
"Edward…" I began but he interrupted.
"I know your truck can't take it." He said smirked at me. He pushed a small blue button on the dashboard that I hadn't noticed before. Then he took my key ring and selected a small silver key and pushed it into a lock next to the button. The load growl of my engine shrank into a purr. Edward began pushing 95.
"I had Rose put another motor in your truck. We can take it out if you want."
"Actually I sort of like it." I was surprised at myself. But this still was my truck, just with a shiny new engine.
"Let me pay for it." I demanded glaring at Edward.
He looked elated,
"You mean your going to keep it?" He looked surprised. "It's a hand me down anyway." He said with a chuckle. "It was the original engine to my Volvo, with a few tweaks."

Why hadn't I thought of it sooner? Bella was agreeing to it. The engine was unsatisfactory for a vampire, but it would be perfect for Bella. I wouldn't have to worry about her getting stranded anymore, and I could go a little faster. We reached the driveway, and I slowed down so Bella could enjoy the decorations.
The trees were wrapped in red and yellow lights, to represent the Spanish flag and the Spanish influenza. Balloons in the same color decorated the porch, so it looked as if the house would float away. Red roses accented it all, millions on the porch road, and in the house. Spanish style lamps were decorating the porch, just like the Japanese ones on Bella's birthday.
We got out of the car and I walked Bella up the rose covered steps.
Everything had been cleared away except the large dining room table, and my piano. The big couches were placed against the walls leaning a large open space. Bella didn't know it yet, but it was a dance floor. A large state of the art stereo system also was pushed against the wall, next to red and yellow glass bins of CDs.
Alice had followed the red and yellow color scheme with a white tablecloth and gold napkins. The table was sprinkled with rose petals. Even the presents piled around the piano were wrapped in red, gold and yellow. More roses adorned everything in sight as well as gold ribbons, and red and yellow streamers.
As soon as we were in the door Alice ran over and pushed us up the stairs.
"Edward, I laid out an outfit in your room. Go get dressed. The party starts in an hour, so I need to get Bella ready." The words came out in a rush and Bella looked confused.
I grinned at her before I ran up the stairs to my room.

Alice talked to Edward too fast for me to hear. Then shoved him towards his room. She dragged me to her room. I protested then looked back at Edward. He grinned then ran in a blur toward his room. Alice shoved me through the door, and then pulled me towards her bathroom.
"Nothing that fancy." She told me. "I only have an hour." It was then that I realized that I was going to be guinea pig Barbie again."
"Alice…" I protested.
"It's for Edward." She said and I immediately shut up. Over the next 40 minutes she got me ready, doing my makeup and curling my hair. She pinned it back somehow so it fell in thick curls down my back. A single red rose was pinned in my hair. Alice must have been hurried because she worked at vampire speed on my make-up, not doing it at a human pace.
After she gave me a red dress and shut the door.
"There is underwear in the bag." she said. Then shut the door. Once I had the dress somewhat on, she came back in and zipped up the back. She gave me a pair of diamond earrings to borrow and a matching necklace. Alice slid diamond clips into my hair to match the earrings then gave me a pair of red heels.
"I'm going to get ready." She announced. "Put on the heels and look in the mirror." I did what she said then gasped as I looked in the mirror. The dress was a halter top, exposing my back. It clung to my waist and ended in ruffles a few inches above my knees. The whole thing had a Spanish feel to it. Alice came out of the bathroom in a gold dress and matching heels, makeup fully done after five minutes.
"Time to party." She told me in an exited voice.
Reviews are love.
