A/N- I'm so obsessive that I HAD to write another chapter. Teehee. What will happen at the zoo…
Edward POV
Bella and the rest of my family skipped ahead of me towards the entrance, while I walked behind. I was thinking, again, about our upcoming wedding…
Suddenly, Bella popped up in front of me, pointing wordlessly towards the cotton candy stand out front.
I shook my head. "No way. I've seen what caffeine does to you; sugar is probably only worse. And you haven't even had breakfast."
She leaned in close, and stared up at me with her big brown eyes. "Please, Eddie? I really want it…" she traced her finger down my collarbone. Damn, it was so hard to say no to her.
"Fine," I grumbled. Bella pulled away cheering. And she accused me of dazzling her. And what was this Eddie all about. I walked over to the cotton candy stand and was immediately disgusted by the attendant's thoughts. Ooh, he's a hottie, she thought, and I shuddered at her sudden mental pictures. She continued her fantasies as she scooped up the cotton candy and gave me the change. The attendant looked up at me and I knew she was going to ask me for my number.
"Sorry, I have to get back to my fiancée," I said rather loudly, not caring who heard. Her eyes widened. Oops, she thought, and went back to her monotonous thoughts.
I walked back over to Bella. She grabbed the cotton candy and started eating it.
"What's with calling me Eddie?" I thought out loud.
She pulled me close for the second time today. "I could tell you," she whispered seductively, cradling my face in her small hands. I was mesmerized.
Bella danced away suddenly. She called, "but then I'd have to kill you!"
My eyes must have been wide, because she yelled, "You know you like it!" as she ran towards the entrance. Of course, her being Bella, she tripped, and of course, me being Edward, I caught her.
"Are you alright?" I asked, concerned.
"Yes, sexy Eddie," she murmured deliriously.
Knew I shouldn't have gotten her that cotton candy.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The family split up at the entrance. Alice and Jasper were headed to the elephants and giraffes, Emmett and Rosalie were of course going to the bears, but Bella and I were undecided. We finally chose to visit the African Animals (lions, mmmmm) and then go see the dolphins.
We strolled through the walkways hand in hand up until we reached the lions. Yes! They had a whole exhibit on mountain lions.
"Go have fun with the big cats, Eddie," she said, distracted by a woman with a baby carriage. Bella loved babies.
I decided to do just that. I would run in the exhibit and poke the lions, then run out before they could see who it was. It wasn't as fun as eating them, but Bella did say no hunting.
I heard her call out. "Eddie! Come see the little cutie!"
I sighed. Bella thought every human baby was a "little cutie". To be quite honest, it was starting to get annoying.
As I got closer to the carriage, I heard sounds no human baby could make. I could think of an explanation, but no way would one be here in a baby carriage!
"NOOOOO!" My suspicions were correct. I ran away as fast as I could, not caring who looked. I had to get away from that evil… thing. I just hoped it wouldn't kill Bella.
Bella's voice rang out from around the corner. "Edwa- oop!" she gasped as she bumped into me. I was curled up into a ball next to a tree. She stared at me long and hard.
"We all have weaknesses," I said softly. "This is mine."
"Edward," she regarded me skeptically, "You're afraid of a cat?"
I nodded weakly. When she said it like that, it sounded so trivial.
"I was lying when I said vampire venom was the only thing that could leave a mark on us," I started carefully. Bella stared wordlessly. "Rather, erm, angry cats can inflict pain on us. Specifically, cats being given baths."
She was howling with laughter. After she calmed down, she asked, "Why on earth would you give a cat a bath?"
"Alice had a cat fetish for a while," I stated simply. Enough said. Bella knew what that meant. Makeover time. Every single frickin day, until the cat was eaten by Jasper… or at least she thought it was Jasper. I smiled wickedly in my head. Revenge!
Bella still stood taking it all in. A slow smile broke across her face. "Edward Cullen, you are one of a kind."
A/N: Yeah, I know, sappy ending! And rather short…… But it is not the end, hahaha. Next up: Emmett and the bears… and Edward and the monkey!
