I DO NOT OWN TWILIGHT!

Creative Ideas

(Edward's POV)

I walked up the rainy sidewalk of Seattle from work like I do every afternoon to the coffee shop. When I can I try to have lunch with my lovely Bella but a lot of days like this I'm going to the coffee shop Seth is now working at. Before Seth got a job here it was my hang out with Emmett and Jasper. I guess you can say it was our 'man cave type thingy'. It wasn't exactly a man cave but it was our escape to be guys while the girls normally hung around Alice's apartment or sometimes they would join us down here. Somehow I feel like we're apart of the old T.V show, Friends, when we do this. I mentioned this to the others once and the only response I got was how Emmett wanted to be Joey.

I walk into the shop to see the guys on the couches. Seth was sitting down for what seemed to be his break, Jake had a newspaper and was circling for jobs, Emmett looked nervous while Jasper tried to consult him.

"So what did I miss?" I ask as I plop down. I was in my doctor scrubs and had my briefcase right next to me.

"I'm trying to think of ways to propose to Rosie" Emmett said as he looked at the red velvet ring box holding the ring.

"Emmett she loves you and I'm pretty sure she'll say yes" I say not really seeing there's a problem.

"But you know Rose! I do not want to upset her on what could be one of the most memorable days of her life!" Emmett cried out.

"Deep much?" Seth muttered as he took a sip of his coffee.

"What's with Jake?" I ask motioning to the guy examining the paper.

"Looking for a job, if I ever want to open my own garage or support Ness in the future I need one" he said looking through the paper.

"You know Ness did offer to invest in opening a garage for you" Jasper pointed out.

"Well I don't want to feel like I'm taking advantage of her money" Jacob stated.

"I'm sure Carlisle wouldn't mind investing" I mention and Jacob shook his head.

"Nope! I will do this on my own, no offense"

"Alright" I say.

"Anyway back to important manners, Rosie! Ring! Wedding! Propose!" Emmett cried in desperation.

"Emmett calm down..maybe just do it when you guys are alone or when we all go out?" I suggest.

"I guess...I'll think of something creative. Anyway when are you exactly planning to ask my sister to hitch with you?" Emmett questioned and I raised my eyebrows.

"And you know I want to marry Bella how?"

"It's pretty obvious Edward" Jasper spoke up "you're pretty whipped"

"Well..okay so maybe I do want to propose to Bella" I say.

"Well good luck with that" Emmett snorted.

"And why is that Mr. Know's everything about Romance" I huff.

"She's Bella. One thing she has always been afraid of, marriage. I don't know what she's going to say to you honestly" Emmett said and I frown.

"I love her and she loves me, why wouldn't she say yes?"

"Our parents divorce, you just have to convince her that you two aren't going to end up like Renee and Charlie. You remember how they used to fight? Remember Bella used to talk to you over the walkie-talkie un the middle of the night" Emmett says and a hint of remembrance hits me.

"Oh yeah right" I mumble.

"Just try and convince her, Bella loves you it's just she's scared of marriage" Jasper explained and I nod.

"Guess I'll try" I sigh. I then notice a new girl in the coffee shop send a little flirtatious wave towards Seth. She has curly red hair and big brown eye. I see Seth wave back with enthusiasm and a smile. I exchange looks with the other guys as we watch Seth.

"What?" he question.

"What the heck was that?" Jacob asked him.

"Huh? I just waved at Maggie, she works here" Seth's gaze didn't leave Maggie's and we all laugh.

"What?" He whined.

"My friend, you are whipped" Jacob teased patting Seth on the back.

"Shut up" Seth mumbled.

"So anyway onto more important things..ME! How am I suppose to PROPOSE!?" Emmett cried out.

"Calm down dude" Jasper said "look why don't you try...giving it to her on a teddy bear?" Jasper suggested and Emmett frowned.

"Wait are you suggesting just because I am bear like I should propose to her using a bear?!" Emmett stared down Jasper.

"What? I don't know? Too girly? Mushy!? I don't know!?I have been hanging around Alice too much, I love the girl to pieces but I mean I guess she can have a very feminine influence on someone?" Jasper replied.

"Actually I was going to say brilliant idea there Jasper, now if you excuses me I'm going to build a bear" Emmett announced getting up.

"You know you could just buy a small little one in like a gift shop?" I point out.

"What's the fun in that? Yo Seth, you wanna help?" Emmett asked.

"Can't, I got a shift to go back to dude. Good luck though" Seth said getting up and back to the counter.

"Jasper?"

"No way, I'm suppose to join the military soon, don't need to be seen in Build a Bear" Jasper answered "anyway I'm going to help Alice around the boutique, spend sometime with her"

"Sure go to a friggin boutique but to help a brother win your sister over!? Fine dude!" Emmett huffed.

"Ugh, fine" Jasper groaned "I'll go but I swear to god if I get embarrassed I'll beat you up"

"Got it, yo Jake wanna come?"

"Where?" Jacob questioned.

"To the umm bike shop"

"Oh sure why not, I'm getting bored looking through the paper and my eyes kind of hurt now from all the newspaper. Yeah sure I'll go" Jacob muttered putting the paper down.

"See ya Eddie boy!" Emmett sung.

"So what bike shop is this exactly?" Jacob asked as they left the shop.

"We'll I'm going back to work now" I announce as I get up from the couch and back to the office. Now how to figure out to convince Bella to marry me?
