A/N: Sorry it took me so long, but I was unbearably worried about putting the first chapter. I thought it would be nice, if the first chapter ended with a cliffie lol.
Disclaimer: Someone told me that it's important so, no I don't anything but the idea and something you'll discover later on. Lol.
Chapter 1: Presents
"You look lovely tonight" Edward murmured in my ear as we walked slowly under the moonlight, our hands entwined together. It was our first official date. He picked me up and took me to the movies. I was shocked when I found out the story of the movie. It was about a vampire falling in love with a human. It was supposed to be a romantic movie.
When I stood frozen in front of the poster he chuckled and said "I thought it would be a good laugh" and it did. We kept laughing through most of the movie about how ridiculous; the actor was playing the vampire role. I tried to ignore his comments every time the vampire appeared he would go like, "wrong, wrong, terribly wrong… we're not that stupid" but I couldn't ignore him any longer.
We were the only two laughing in the place. People looked at us like we were crazy. The movie ended by the vampire going back to his coffin, and the girl leaving him for a human. It was horrible. People were crying in the end, only Edward was laughing. But I was disgusted from the girl. But I had to admit, I had fun.
"You look pretty dashing your self" I said examining him. His face was as beautiful as always. His bronz-ish hair was a bit messed up from the wind. His pale beautiful face was filled with pleasure just like his black eyes (it's been almost a week since he last hunted). I looked at the clothes was wearing. He was wearing black jeans, and a blue untucked shirt over it. He rolled his sleeve up to his elbow, which revealed his long pale arms.
"May I ask where are you kidnapping me?" He asked flashing a brilliant smile. When he asked me out on a date, I told him that he could only have half a date, the rest will be mine. I wanted to surprise him, and since he can't read my thoughts, he doesn't know what I'm planning to do.
"Nope, not a chance" I smiled.
"Please?" He said smiling crookedly at me. I just shook my head, and he sighed. "But you are going to tell me, right?"
"Eventually" Of course, it's his surprise. I suddenly stopped.
"What?" he asked immediately anxious.
"Would you do something for me?" I asked politely.
"Anything" he vowed.
"Could you please tune out all other people's thoughts? Please?" I put on my best puppy dog face. "Please, don't ruin this for me"
"It's heartbreaking to tell you no when you look like this" He smiled, "ok, ok. I'm deaf, now are you going to tell me?"
"Wait for it" I said as I pulled him along. It's only a matter of seconds and he'll figure out where we're going. To the meadow of course.
"Ah" he said when he realized where we were heading, "but why?"
"I thought you were supposed to be patient" Since I first saw Edward I never saw him impatient. With me at least.
"Sorry, sometimes it gets out of hand" He chuckled. When we got there, I stopped walking and turned to him.
"Stay here" I ordered leaving his hands.
"Where are you going?" He asked confused.
"I'll be right back, just don't move." I said quickly, heading for the trees but I turned, "Remember, Tune out" I ordered. He was fighting back a smile, but nodded. I turned away from him and started running. She wasn't far, but she couldn't come to me or else Edward would catch her scent.
"Where is it, Alice?" I told her quickly.
"Here it is" She said handing my the plastic bag.
"Did they cost you more than what I gave you?"
"No, the money was enough. Now go" She said enthusiastic.
I ran back to Edward. He was sitting in the same place I left him in. He smiled when he saw me. I stopped to catch my breath before I sat in front of him. He noticed the plastic bag.
"What's that?" he asked confused. And I was sure that he didn't cheat, he really did tune it out. I smiled. I took the plastic bag that I dropped beside me and gave it to him. He looked at me unsure.
"Open it" I said, "It's yours" Confusion spread on his face as he took the bag. He got out to small boxes from the bag. He put them in front of both of us, and put the bag away. He looked at them then at me, still confused.
"Should I open them?" He asked. I nodded with a smile. He took the first box and opened it. He stared at it for a while before, reaching in and getting it out. It was a shape of half a broken heart. It was golden colored Topaz. He looked at it then at me, with a bewildered expression. "You bought that?" He whispered gazing into my eyes. I smiled and nodded shyly "Why?" He asked putting one hand on my face. Clearly liked it but he was still surprised. I sighed and leaned my head on his hand as I whispered,
"Happy Birthday, my Edward"
"Oh, Bella" He whispered. And so quickly I was in his arms. He hugged me tightly, "Thank you. But it's too much." He whispered struggling to find words.
"Look who's talking" I muttered. He chuckled and released me. He looked at the half hearted Topaz then at me. He looked like he was trying t figure something out. I knew exactly what he was trying to understand. So I got out my necklace, which I had carefully hidden under my t-shirt, and showed it to him. It was the other half.
"Wow" was all he was capable of saying.
"So you like it?"
"Like it?" He asked bewildered, "that's an understatement. I can't tell you how much I love it Bella. Thank you" His voice was full of unphrased emotion, but his eyes said it all. There were surprise, and joy in them. He took my face in his hands and kissed my forehead, "I wish I could tell you how much this means to me." He whispered in my ear. I smiled as he wrapped his arms around me again, but this time he pulled me next to him. So I was leaning on his right side.
"So if this is my present, then what is this?" He said pointing at the other box. I chuckled.
"Your present, too" I laughed. He pulled me away to meet my gaze. He narrowed his eyes.
"Isabella Swan, How many presents did you get me?"
"Just two" I shrugged innocently.
"Why two? One was more than enough. Besides we both know hat this is no real birthday."
"Wrong. This is to me. And don't you dare say one is enough. You get me stuff all the time can't I get you something once." I made my puppy face again. He sighed.
"Ok, but only this once." He reached for the other box.
"Wait" I stopped him, just before he opened it. He looked at me.
"Come first" I said standing up, he looked confused again.
"Where to?" He said standing up. I just sighed and pulled him with me. I walked a bit faster than my usual and I could feel his eyes on me.
"Alice" I called when her figure was clear in front of me.
"Alice?" He asked confused. She came to me.
"Is it there?" I asked her.
"Yup" She said jumping and clapping, "Oh Edward you'll love this" She said hugging him. He looked from Alice to me.
"Can't I cheat?" He asked me hopelessly.
"Nope" I smiled.
"Even if you did, my thoughts are well hidden" Alice giggled. We both pulled Edward through the woods. Till we finally reached the road. I turned to him.
"Ok, now you can open it" I told him. He looked at me and Alice, then turned to the box in his hands. He opened the box, and his eyebrows were raised in surprise. He got out a key and looked at me. I smiled and pointed to the right of the road, he followed my where my finger was pointing with his eyes, till they came to a sudden stop.
"You didn't" He whispered breathlessly.
"Oh, yes she did" Alice said energetically. I watched Edward as he stared with his mouth open on a silver motorcycle that resembled the one he had before, but never got the chance to ride. I was feeling really bad since he gave his to Jasper because of me. He turned to look at me.
"I figured since, I wouldn't be able to keep pace with you. Why not ride with you?" I smiled shyly. And I didn't feel the ground under my legs. He lifted me into a hug, that showed how excited he was. I laughed. But then he put me down and looked at me with hesitant eyes.
"You paid for all that?" He asked looking a bit uncomfortable by that fact.
"Well, I have to admit. Alice helped me a lot in the motorcycle." I admitted sheepishly, "Don't you dare say a word about that. It ill hurt my feelings" It won't but I only said that to make him shut it. He hesitated for a while then smiled.
"Thank you" He told me. Then turned to Alice, "Thanks Al, but you'll never let her do this again" She glared at him but then decided to ignore that. He turned to me and kissed my forehead again.
"I love you" He murmured
"I love you" I smiled.
"Now, lets' go for a ride" He said excitedly.
Next morning, I was so exhausted. Riding on a motorcycle with Edward was kind of frightening. It was going so fast that I didn't see the road. I nearly had a heart attack, but I didn't tell him of course. I went to the kitchen to make myself some breakfast. Edward was hunting with his family. He's supposed to be back in two days. I didn't feel up to anything since Edward wasn't here. I sat as I started eating my cereal, thinking about how happy Edward was and how it made me happy. I sat there for awhile in silence, but it was interrupted by the door bell ringing. I went to see who. I opened the door, and once I did I was frozen in my place. Shocked!
"Hello Bella"
