Bella's POV
The whole living room had been transformed, their wasn't a single piece of furniture present and the piano had been moved from the corner to the room to the middle which Edward was sitting at playing. I recognized the song immediately. It was my lullaby. Rose peddles were scatter covered the floor. All the lights were out except for the candles that covered the room illuminating it. I slowly started to make my way down the stairs. I took it slow hoping not to trip and ruin this evening that had only just started. I reached the bottom of the stairs and Edward looked up from the piano and smiled at my while still playing.
I walked over to the piano and he finished the piece. He got up and took my hand leading me away from the piano. I was still in shock looking around the room. I looked at him. He was wearing a black suit, which made his skin paler. I was staring at my angel. He stopped and turned to face me. He slowly brought me closer to him.
"You look so beautiful," he whispered into my hair. I felt myself start to blush, which made him smile even more then he had before. He looked at me for the longest time. He brushed his hand against my check. He took a deep breath "Before I met you I felt my life had no meaning" he paused and took a black case out of his pocket and knelt on the floor I gasped realizing what was happening. He open the box and their laid the most perfect ring I had ever seen. "Isabella, with this ring, I give you the greatest love I could possibly give if you're willing to take the chance; with this ring is a promise to love you and care for you for as long as you and I shall live; but most importantly, with this ring, lies my hope of happy ever after. Isabella Marie Swan will you be my wife, will you marry me?"
Edward's POV
"Before I met you I felt my life had no meaning" I paused and took a black case out of my pocket and knelt on the floor. I heard a small gasp and open the box to reveal the ring. I looked back up at her face and continued "Isabella, with this ring I give you the greatest love I could possibly give if you're willing to take the chance; with this ring is a promise to love you and care for you for as long as you and I shall live; but most importantly, with this ring, lies my hope of happy ever after. Isabella Marie Swan will you be my wife, will you marry me?"
A single tear fell from her eye. I got up off my knee and stood in front of her. I think she was going into shock because she wasn't saying anything she was just stairing into thin air.
"Bella, are you okay? You do not have to-"
"Yes" she whispered. If I had not been paying close attention I would have missed the answer.
"Yes?" I repeated what I thought she had said. She looked back at my face and nodded. I grabbed her by the waist and brought my lips to hers. I put all the emotion I was feeling into that kiss. She I believe did the same. I loved her so much and knew that this was what I wanted more than anything else in the world. I wanted her to be mine and me to be hers.
She drew her lips away "I love you Edward" she said and placed her head against my chest.
Bella POV
"I love you Edward" I said as I placed my head against his chest. He wrapped his arms tighter around me. I stood there with him. We did not say a word. We did not have to. He knew what I was feeling and I knew what he felt. This was perfect in every way. He slowly unwrapped his arms from me and took my hand leading me to the piano. He sat down and began to play. The music was beautiful; it reflected the emotions I was feeling at this moment. I watched his hands graze over the keys with little ease. He was perfect and now he was mine.
When the song finished he turned to look at me "Bella, you made me the luckiest person tonight" he said lifting his hand to my face. He went back to the piano and played another piece for me. We sat there for a long time listening to the music and enjoying being in each other's presence. I could ask for anything better, because there was not anything possibly better.
Edward's POV
I just laid with her that night. She slept so peacefully. "Edward" I heard a voice whisper from the door. I glanced over to see Alice walk in. "How did the night go?" she asked.
"Take a look" I said and pointed to the ring sitting on her left hand.
"Oh Edward its gorgeous" she said and gave him a hug and left. I turned to look back at my one and only love. She stirred slightly.
"Edward….. Yes, I will marry you… I love" then it stopped. A grin appeared on my face and I pulled her closer to me. I loved to watch her sleep it allowed me to look at her and admire her for who she truly was without getting embarrassed by the extra attention she got from me.
"Edward? Can I talk to you for a second?" Esme said from the doorway. I slowly slid myself from Bella and headed to the door. I stepped out and shut the door quietly.
"Come downstairs for a second everyone wants to congratulate you" she said pulling me into a hug.
We reached the bottom of the stairs. I looked to see the living room back together. "Thanks guys I would have done it sooner but I got caught up with Bella" I explained.
"Don't worry about it" Emmett replied as he came over. "Congrats little bro, you deserve this" he said pulling me into a hug. After my hug with everyone, I sat down on the couch.
"Alice don't even think of asking, you can ask later I don't think it's quite settled into her that soon she will be a Cullen" Cullen I thought. I really liked that idea. Alice had asked me if she could plan the wedding. Of course, it wasn't up to me because I didn't care how or where we got married as long as I got to marry Bella.
"So how did you propose?" Rose turned to look at me.
"Same way everyone I guess does?" he said. "I just start to talk about how I loved her, and I got down on one knee, and asked her to marry me. She was shocked she didn't answer at first and she whispered yes" the last part made me laugh because in all the time I had been around Bella she was defiantly one who would not stop talking, and the only time I truly needed to hear a response is the time she's dead quiet.
"Well congratulations son, you could not have found a better wife for yourself" Carlisle said and got up and took Esme to their room. Emmett and Rose soon followed. Jasper and Alice were the last to leave. Alice once again came and gave me a hug before ascending with her husband to their room to be alone. I sat there and decided like everyone else I would follow and spend time with the one I love.
She was right where I left her. I changed into my pajamas and crawled back to Bella pulling she into my grasp. For the next hours to come I watched my love dream of happy thoughts.
