I laid there in my angels arms taking a deep unnecessary breath and then inhaling my loves sent. It sent a calm wave over my body and mind making all my doubts and troubles disappear, like it always had for the past 80 or so years. I loved nights like these, were we just laid in tangled up in each others arms in this comfortable silence with the rain tapping against the window. It was nights like this that I would wish with all my might to be able to live out the rest of my eternity like this. Nights like this, I felt utterly and completely whole. I felt like I had everything, and nothing in the world would stand in the way of mine and Edward's love.
Edward and I had been through so man things, down that long bumpy road with speed bumps and pot holes so many times, but each time we steered clear of most troubles and continued on our way, with our love stronger then before. I sighed at the thought of the up coming week. It was a week long celebration that Alice was putting on and inviting over a hundred people, mostly family friends that had accumulated over the years. And Alice was in over drive mode, so I tried to stay away from her and tried to calm her down before she broke anything. For the record she already broke 3 windows and 4 doors and almost broke Edwards beloved piano, thank goodness I stopped her and he was out of the house, it would not of ended very well. So all of this celebration is for my 100th birthday, which so happens to be mine and Edward's 80th wedding anniversary. And not that were celebrating it, but it will be 70 years since Charlie and Renée died from a plain crash, while they were on their way to Alaska for mine and Edwards 10 year anniversary. And even though it wasn't my fault, I still blamed myself for it. Even though I have very few human memories left, I know that I will always love them.
One thing that I remember faintly was when I told them that I was a vampire, Charlie fainted and Renée flew in from Florida to take me to a doctor, however Edward and I showed them our vampireness and then just stood there stunned, then asked questions, and then turned all supportive. It was weird. But after that I moved in with Edward and the rest of the Cullen family. I was changed after graduation like Carlisle promised, and then promised Edward I would marry him by becoming his fiancée. We moved to Alaska so I could control my blood lust.
That was a big reason why we waited two years to get married. My mom was dead set on throwing a huge wedding ceremony in Forks, so I had to be under control, and it was possible because she wanted me to be older then 18 to be married. I controlled my blood lust fairly quickly, and surprised everyone. Carlisle believes that because of my distaste for blood as a human was strong, it somewhat carried on to my vampire form. So I am only really set of by it when I don't hunt for a long time, which hardly ever happens, but it still makes me different. I also carried over two human traits, one is to cry and the other, to my humiliation, is blushing, but only when I am most truly embarrassed, but no one knew that side of it. I also have more then one power, I can see anyone or anything anywhere whenever I want, it's a lot like spying, and I try not to use it to much, but its pretty useful at times. I can also read peoples minds like Edward and block other vampire's powers that have to do with mental power. And my favorite part about it was having conversations with Edward with out anyone knowing, it was quite useful at times when trying to get away from Alice's make-over parties.
On queue, I heard Edwards velvet voice in my head, "Bella…" I lifted my head off his chest to look into his topaz eyes and softly smiled, "yes?" I answered back, letting my black down, he smiled his perfect crooked smile and simply thought, "forever?" I shifted my body so that we were eye level, placed my hand on his cheek and looked deep into those wonderful eyes that showed so much love and devotion. I smiled and thought back, "yes, forever" and then pulled him into a passionate kiss that would have surly killed me if I had been a human. I pulled back and rested my head on his chest again, and we feel into a comfortable silence again as we watched the first rays of sun light enter the sky and our room. I looked up into his face and kissed the tip of his nose and said, "Good morning love."
"Good morning to you too" he replied with a smile and ruffled my hair. I shot him a glare and then he quickly combed through it to make it look nice again. I smiled, gave him a swift kiss and headed to the bathroom. I quickly showered and then got dressed. I dried my hair, which was now a darker brown with red highlights in it from becoming a vampire. My body didn't change much, well not that I could remember, my pale skin just turned even paler, my face was more angular but not to harsh, and my lips were more pink. However, my eyes stayed their deep chocolate brown that Edward loved so much. I looked into the mirror and shrugged thinking, "this is as good as it gets" and then headed back to the room, and switched places with Edward.
I went to the couch and laid on my stomach, waiting for Edward to finish up, and thought about what we were going to do today. I used my seeing power to see if anyone was around. I skipped Emmett and Rose because they were in Africa on some extended hunting trip but would be back for sure by next week for my, or shall I say Alice's, grand party. I checked Carlisle, and saw him working in his office and saw Esme there as well. I checked Jasper, and watched him in his study, which only left Alice-
"Oh Bella…" I shuddered and looked at her tiny frame in the doorway. I instantly read her mind and groaned, "No, Alice! I told you I don't want to help plan my 'special week'" I took to calling it that because any other name I had used before threw her into a fit about how much I didn't appreciate her work and blah blah… so I stuck to 'special week' instead, which barley passed her. She was by my side in and instant and was pulling my arm as my mind searched for Edwards and then begged for him to come save me, but only got a "I love you, have fun honey" And I could hear the smugness of his voice and thought back, "how dare you!": which I only heard a laugh from behind the door, which he surly already barricaded so Alice couldn't get in to make him plan this 'special week' too. I focused on him, and then watched him in my mind with a couple metal chairs behind that door, "coward" I thought to him.
I quickly thought, and came up with an idea, I stopped struggling and faced Alice and put on my most sincere face. "Alice, you know that next week is huge, and its going to be really special, one that I will remember for all my eternity, right?" She nodded her head, but gave me a suspicious stare, I continued, "Well, seeing that you are the best party planer that I'll ever meet, and I am surly not the one with all the creativeness or decorating sense…" I cut into her thoughts and heard, "oh so she's trying to act all innocent and try to use her inexperience…" I panicked and then set in a different tactic, "…and yeh, so I know that if I chose what to do it would not look good, but if you did, I know it would be awesome. And Alice, I really want the week to be one that I remember, so I think that if I am surprised by the decorations, were its at, what my dress is like, then it will be even better and I will enjoy it that much more." I finished nervously, and then peaked in her thoughts again, "well she does have a point…but all the work…who will help…" I cut her off and then whispered in her ear, so low, " You know, Edward is free" I couldn't help but smile, but he did leave me out here to defend myself against Alice and is hiding out in the bathroom.
She smiled, and then leaned into my ear and whispered back to me, "oh your good, and yes I will get Edward to help, cause i want you to enjoy this, but next time I wont be so nice" Then she backed away and then said loudly, "Fine Bella, I just want you to be happy with this and have a grand time, ill figure something out" then she winked and left to go to her room. I smiled to my self, happy with my feat of overcoming Alice, and laid back down. I heard a movement in the bathroom, and then the door opened a crack. Edward whispered, "Is she gone?"
"My, my, that was an awful long shower you took Mr. Cullen. You should really try to conserve more, it just isn't nice to those that don't have running water else where around the world."
"Why didn't you go with Alice?" He said, completely avoiding my question, and his voice sounded weary.
"Well im sure you heard well enough from behind the barricaded bathroom door" He looked at me shocked and then I continued, "Well, if I dear say, honey, don't you want me to be happy and have next week be one that I'll always remember for the rest of my eternity?"
"Well yes, I want you happy-"
"Good, and so for me to be happy, I cannot work with Alice on this project." Silence followed, and I heard his thoughts, "oh gezz…Bella, what am I going to do, how is Alice going to plan this…oh no…she better not think I am…" Horror filled his face, I just looked at him innocently, "What?"
"Who's helping Alice then?"
"Oh, I believe that you may get to, but right now I need to go check on my garden." I walked over to him, gave him a quick kiss and walked to the door. I picked up his thoughts as he said, "..And who does she think she is to do that to me…" I turned around and smiled, and replied, "Um, Edward, I do believe that I am your wife" I saw his face fall as he thought, "ah shoot, I hate when she does that…shoot your listening again…" I smiled and said, "But I love when you do that, its cute. Now go see Alice before she has to drag you away." I turned and fled to my garden, hearing Alice saying, "Oh Edward…." And then I chuckled to my self and turned my attention to my plants.
