OMJ, everyone I'm soooooooo sorry. It's almost Christmas; I really need to get more of this done!! This isn't going to be a long story just a couple more chapters including this one, probably.
Oh, and don't ask why I always have Bella pretend she doesn't know Edward is a vampire, I just find it funny.
Disclaimer: I do not own Twilight, (well actually I do own the book, heh heh heh) SM does, GOSH!
BPOV
I sit up in the bed; a large grin is on my face. Today is December 14th, the Cullen's and I are picking out a tree today and I'm happy. Very happy. Ok, and kinda hyper to. That might be why I'm up at 6:37am. But of course Edward is trying, and epically failing, to get me to go back to sleep for a while. His efforts are pointless, though.
"Bella, please."
"Hehe, never!"
"Bella."
"Yeees, Eddie-kinz?!"
"Go. To. Sleep."
"Why?"
"I've told you a million times, it is way too early to be up."
"But your up."
"I don't sleep."
I gasp, "You know Edward, the human body needs sleep to function properly. At least I slept a bit."
"I'm not human, Bella."
I gasp again, "You waited this long to tell me? On the night before our wedding as well! How can you expect me to deal with this craziness?!!"
"Bella," he says, he's giving me a look, and I think he is angry. "We are not getting married, you don't want to, and it is not night either. I have told you many times before, I'm a vampire. Not human, understand?"
I completely ignore him, "How could you do this to me Edward?!?! We are supposed to be married tomorrow! What will the kids think!?!"
"Bella!"
"What know? You gonna tell me something else completely insane? What are you exactly anyway, you never said,"
"Vampire," he says slowly.
I gasp once again "W-w-w-what!? A vampire? As in, bloodsucking creature of the night?! My gosh! You've got to be kidding me!"
"Bella for my sanity's sake, will you give it up!"
"Give what up?! I'm not joking, Edward. If you're a vampire, then we need to discuss some things."
"Bella, pleas stop."
"Stop what?! Are our children going to be vampire too?!"
"What children? I can't father children Bella. I. Am. A. VAMPIE!"
"So, you found out huh? You're a vampire and I'm a no good dirty slut. Everything is out in the open now. We need to talk, are we still getting married?"
"Bella. What will make you stop?"
"Bite me."
"Arrg, please Bella, just st- oooh, I get what you mean. No."
"Are we getting married? Do you think it is a good idea? Oh what will the children think, they still think you're their father, you know."
"Bella!!!"
"Yes, love?"
"Love? Since when did you call me love?"
"Since, forever, pet."
"Pet? I don't even call you that. I thought it would be offensive, since James thought you were our pet..."
"James? Is that the nice boy from down the road? He's cute," Yeah… I don't even know what's going on in my head, I'm probably just so tired I'm hyper.
Edward gives me a weird look, then shakes his head.
"Guess what, Edddward?" I say in a creepy feline voice, dragging out his name.
"Uh, what, Bella?"
"You should've killed me when you had the chance," I say in a creepy feline voice, with an equally creepy grin on my face.
"I can honestly say, Bella, this is the first time a human has ever scared me. Congratulations."
"Cooool. What time is it?"
"7:00."
"Can I get up nooooow?"
He sighs, "I guess…"
"YES!"
"Are you going to continue your foolishness?"
"Uhm," I was about to say something but Alice came in.
"Gosh. Stop acting like her father, Jack."
"Yeah!" I say agreeing, with her.
"Ughhhhhhhh…" Edward says,
"Cheer up, Eddy weddy, we get our tree today," Emmett says from the door way I hadn't realised he was standing in.
"Ok, fine, I'll cheer up, IF she clams down."
"Ok," I say pouting at him.
At the top of the stairs I link my arm through Edward's, because at the bottom of the staircase there is mistletoe hanging, so I always go under it with him because then he has to kiss me. When we get to the bottom, he leans in and kisses me very lightly on the lips. I kiss him back for the short time his lips are on mine, and pout when he pulls away. He sighs and kisses me again, longer this time, but still not very long. I smile, and walk away from the stairs.
The inside of the house is now fully decorated. Strings of holly hung along the walls of every room, bells and mistletoe in many of the doorways and much, much, more around the house.
"Ok, lets go!" I say smiling.
"You should eat first," Edward says to me.
"Aww, I can't eat when I get back," I suggest in a cute voice.
"No, Bella," he says giving me a stern look. To be truthful, I've gotten this look so many times these couple weeks that it barely affects me anymore. =D
"Edward."
"Yes, Bella?"
"I don't want to eat yet, I wanna get the twee."
"You can have something really quick. Esme already made something for you," he gives me an irresistible smile, it isn't my crooked smile but it is still very beautiful.
"Fine." I say sighing.
After I eat, we all go outside. Edward bends down so I can climb on his back. We run into the forest then stop at a part of the forest with tall, green, trees. They may be spruce or fir. I was able to tell the difference, once upon a time, but my mother and I always put up a fake tree, so I don't know how to tell the difference anymore.
"Let's look!" Carlisle says smiling, as Edward lets me down.
"Sure!" Emmett said.
Everyone ran to different places, and looked at different trees. I saw a very nice looking tree, very nice green in color, full branches, very tall. It looks like it would be the perfect size for the Cullen's living room.
"Edward, look at this one!"
"Hmm. Looks nice, Bella, very good. Hey, Alice, come here for a sec!"
"It looks great Edward! Bella picked it out you say?"
"I never said that, but yeah, she did pick it out."
"Wow, she has a great eye. The size leaves just enough room between the top of the tree and the measure of the ceiling that there will be room for the star."
"Great! Hey you guys, come look over here!"
In a few seconds after Edward yelled, the rest of the Cullen's are here and everyone is looking around my tree.
"It looks perfect" Esme says.
"Great size, nice color, it has everything," Jasper says.
"I think we have our tree," Rosalie says smiling.
"Ok, let's chop 'er down," Emmett says, being Emmett I suppose.
"Let us go back to the house ladies, this is a mans job!" Alice says, laughing.
"Uh, what about me? How will I get back?" I ask.
"You can come with me, dear," Esme says smiling warmly at me.
"Ok," I say smiling back at her.
The girls leave while the guys get the tree. Just as we ladies enter the kitchen, the little cooking timer goes off. I can smell freshly baked gingerbread in the air.
"Esme are you cooking gingerbread?" I ask
"Why yes, sweetie I am, we are going to make a gingerbread houses while we wait for the tree's branches to settle and stuff."
"Sweet!" I say. The other girls and I sit down at the table as Esme takes the pieces of gingerbread out of the oven and waits for them to cool.
After they pieces are cool and put together with frosting, we starts to decorate the houses. There are four houses to decorate, one of us at each. Before we get far the guys come in from the living room.
"Its done, now all we need to do is wait!" Emmett says grinning widely.
"Hey, love," Edward says and comes to stand by me.
"Hi, Edward," I say smiling. "Are you going to help me?" I ask him nodding my head at the gingerbread house, so far I'm only on the roof and it is pitiful.
"Do you want me to?"
"Yes."
"Ok then, I will help you."
We work on the gingerbread house together, he is much better at decorating then I am, but I guess that doesn't matter. I just like spending time with him.
