(A/N- It's amazing to write a story when I already know what is going to happen. I'm beginning to consider this dream one of the best I have ever had. I know this story is a little cliché but as it was bouncing around in my head I knew I had to write it or forever wonder "What if?" Think if SM had just kept her story to herself? Would we all just be sitting around doing nothing? Or dreaming of the really cliché Prince Charming?)

To her car

EPOV

I was excited to see Carlisle tonight, while he was actually my uncle, I thought of him as a father figure ever since he and his wife, Esme, had welcomed me into their home after both my mother and father had died. Carlisle was a respectable man and he had helped raise me into the gentleman I had become, along with his wife, who through her compassion was like a mother to me. I owed everything I had had or have now to them. I was forever grateful for their kindness and generosity.

I was on my way to the restaurant to join them for dinner when my cell phone rang. I pulled it out of my pocket to check the Caller ID. It was Carlisle. I wonder if Esme is running late from her class and he pushed the reservation time back. I flipped open the phone.

"Hello, Carlisle," I answered.

"Edward, I was wondering if you could pick Esme up from the university. She just called to say she was ready a little earlier than she planned and I have one last patient to see before I change and meet the two of you at the restaurant. Could you help me out by picking her up?"

"Sure, no problem. I know where her office is located."

"Thank you, Edward. I will see you two at dinner," Carlisle replied.

"See you there." I closed the phone and slid it back into my pocket. I flipped on my turn signal and turned so I was heading towards the university so I could pick up Esme.

As I drove I put on my favorite CD. The classical music made me smile.

I turned into the parking lot, noticing Esme was waiting for me along with another person. The other woman was in a t-shirt and sweats with her brown hair pulled back at her neck.

I pulled up in front of them, and then put the gearshift in Park so I could get out and greet Esme. As I rounded the front of the car to give Esme a hug I pulled off my sunglasses.

"Hello, Esme. It's good to see you," I said as I gave her a hug.

Esme hugged me and then pulled back saying, "Edward, I'd like you to meet my favorite student, Bella Swan," she gestured towards the girl in the t-shirt and sweats.

My eyes turned toward her. Her face was colored with a blush that suited her pale complexion. She was the most beautiful woman my eyes had ever seen. Even in sweats with her hair pulled back this girl was stunning.

Trying to cover my nervousness, I extended my hand, "Hello, I'm Edward Cullen. It's a pleasure to meet you." Did I just say it's a pleasure to meet you to this beautiful girl? She seemed frozen for a second until she put her hand out and shook mine. Her hand was warm and it sent of shiver down my spine with only that simple touch.

"Well I really should be going. It's getting darker and I need to get to my car," Bella stated, "It was a pleasure, Edward." She quickly turned to Esme, but I noticed there was another coloring of blush across her high cheekbones. Why is she blushing about saying goodbye?

"Don't forget who your favorite student is when you grade my paper this weekend," she joked.

"Oh! I left those papers in my office! Edward, will you wait just a few more minutes please? I don't want to forget them," Esme pleaded.

"Sure Esme," I responded quickly. I knew Carlisle was probably still with his patient so we had plenty of time.

"Why don't you give Bella a ride to her car while I retrieve those papers? I'm sure she would love a ride. And I'll be at least twenty minutes printing some of them off," Esme suggested.

"Oh no, I can walk I'll be fine," Bella responded quickly as she began backing up only to stumble on a crack in the sidewalk.

I instinctively threw my arms out to catch her. I caught her just before she hit the ground and righted her on her feet. She opened her brown eyes. For a second I did not want to let her go. She smelled amazing and her body was warm against mine.

"Maybe I should give her a ride. She might not make it there on her own if that's how she walks," I said to Esme, as I chuckled. Bella, however, blushed.

"That would be great, thanks," she turned to Esme, "I'll see you next week."

I held open the door for her as she climbed into my Volvo. I walked around, climbed into the car and put on my seatbelt.

"Now, where to?" I asked as I pulled out of the parking lot. She gave me the directions and we were on our way.

We reached a stoplight so I decided to initiate conversation. "Didn't Esme's class end almost two hours ago?" I inquired glancing over at her as I waited for the stoplight to turn green.

"Yeah, she just needed help with organizing some papers and ever since she tutored me earlier this semester, I feel like I owe her, for her generosity." Esme always helped her students. She was too compassionate not to.

I smiled, "Thank you for helping her. She would still be working without you." I loved Esme but she was a little unorganized when it came to work.

"Oh, it's no big deal; I didn't have any other plans tonight. My roommate Alice was out with her boyfriend anyway." No plans tonight? I would have thought a girl as pretty as her would have dates every night. Maybe she and I…I banished the thought. This girl was too beautiful; she probably already has a hundred other prospects. Another blush stained her cheeks. Never had a blush looked so beautiful on a girl.

I turned my gaze back to the road as she leaned forward to find something in her bag.

Suddenly an animal darted out into the road and I automatically slammed the breaks to avoid hitting it. I heard Bella gasp. Oh my god! Is she hurt? I'll never forgive myself if she's hurt.

"Oh crap! I'm sorry, an animal ran into the road and I hit the breaks so I wouldn't hit it. Are you okay?" I asked looking over at her with concern covering my face.

"Yeah, it just surprised me, that's all," she replied waving her hand.

"Are you sure?" I reached over to place my hand on hers. The touch felt like a spark and we both pulled away quickly. She nodded her head.

For the rest of the ride, we were silent. I never took my eyes off the road, too afraid something else would happen. I also couldn't look at her. That touch had sent shudders through my body and up my spine. I had known a lot of girls but none of them had ever had that effect on me.

I pulled into the parking lot and she pointed to the end of the row by the trees where her car was located. She reached for the handle and turned back, "Thanks for the ride, I really appreciated it." My mind was screaming Don't go, please don't go! Stay with me!

"Your welcome." I finally said. She opened the door, stepped out, and waved good-bye as she closed the door. She pulled out her keys and unlocked her car. She climbed in and put the keys in the ignition. As the car engine turned over she lowered the windows and put on a CD. Then she turned the engine of so the music was still playing.

I could hear what she was playing; she was listening to Debussy, just like the CD in my CD player. Someone else my age actually likes Debussy?

"Everything okay?" I asked giving her a quizzical look as I lowered the window of the passenger side door. I was curious to why she was just sitting there now.

"Yes, I'm just not ready to go home yet. I figure I can wait for the stars to come out," Bella responded gesturing toward the darkening sky.

I smiled and laughed to myself. This girl was doing exactly what I wanted to do right now. Listening to music and staring at the sky. She's perfect. I looked at the clock on the dashboard and realized I needed to get back to Esme if we were going to meet Carlisle for our reservation.

"Bye Bella!" I called as I pulled away. I will probably never see her again. I should have gotten her e-mail address or number. It's too late now. If I go back I'll look like some deranged stalker.

I quickly drove back to Esme's office and she was waiting with her overstuffed briefcase in her hand. She climbed into the car and buckled her seatbelt.

"Is Bella safely on her way home, Edward?" Esme inquired.

"Yes," I responded. Last I saw she was looking at the stars listening to one of my favorite composers.

"Let's meet Carlisle, now," she stated as I pulled out of the parking lot. I took one look in the direction where Bella would be and I noticed a star, it appeared to be the first star of the night sky.

Despite it feeling slightly juvenile I murmured, "I wish I could see Bella again. Soon."

(A/N Aww…don't you love how they both wished upon a star? Edward's perspective was a little harder to write. I wanted to be romantic without him sounding like a girl. What do you think? Please review!)
