------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

I woke up the next morning at around 9 to the sound of my phone vibrating on the bedside table. I was irritable, and so I answered the phone without bothering to look at the caller ID.

"Hello?" I said groggily and a bit annoyed.

"Well good morning to you too, Sleeping Beauty," a smooth and velvety voice chuckled.

"Oh hey, Edward. Sorry about that I'm really grouchy when I just wake up," I replied.

"Not much of a morning person, I see," he chuckled again, "in any case I was just calling to say hi, and also to ask you out to a movie tonight."

"I'd love to go to a movie with you tonight, Edward," I accepted.

"Great, so I'll pick you up at around 7 so that we can catch the 8 o' clock showing," he said.

"Sounds good. What movie are we going to see?" I asked him.

"Anything you want to see," he answered, "I want you to have a memorable evening, seeing as this evening will be the last day you'll be here." I could hear the sadness in his voice. I sighed heavily as the realization washed over me.

"I know," I eventually replied, "and I want us to have a great evening too. We can pick a movie when we get there. And if it's okay with you I'd like to spend some time alone with you in your abandoned ballet studio."

"Sure thing. There's also a meteor shower tonight, so if you wanted to go to the park to watch it then we can do that too," he suggested.

"That sounds lovely, Edward."

"I'll see you tonight then."

"Can't wait. Bye, Edward."

"See you later Bella," he replied. We were both silent for a long time before he finally decided to hang up. I sighed in contentment and happiness. Though tonight may be the last night I'd see Edward for possibly a very long time, I was really going to try and make this work for us. I really did like Edward more than all those other crazy screaming fan girls, and I was genuinely interested to see if I could have a relationship with him.

Just then, Emily burst through the door, wearing her jogging clothes and carrying something in her hand.

"Bella! Have you seen the tabloids?!! You and Edward are on the front page!!" she exclaimed.

"No, Em, I practically just woke up. And, what are you talking about??" I asked.

"I was jogging this morning with Alice and we passed by a shop with a newspaper stand out front, and I noticed this tabloid sitting right on top! You and Edward are on the front page!!!!!" she explained.

"What? Let me see that," I said, taking it from her and looking at it. Surely enough, some sneaky paparazzi managed to get pictures of Edward and I while we were on our date yesterday. There were many pictures of us there, including a picture of Edward on top of me at the roller rink, two pictures of us dancing, and a large picture of us looking deeply into each other's eyes when we were at the roller rink.

I read the headline:

EDWARD CULLEN AND MYSTERY GIRL

EDWARD CULLEN WAS SPOTTED AROUND THE TOWN WITH AN UNKNOWN FEMALE COMPANION. MORE DETAILS INSIDE.

I was so shocked that I flipped the pages open to find the article. I was so surprised and slightly embarrassed when I saw a picture of Edward and I outside my hotel room door kissing. I blushed furiously and wondered how on earth those people managed to get the shots. I continued reading.

Edward Cullen has always been the single one in the very popular rock band, Vampire, and that status has remained the same, apparently up until yesterday when he and "mystery girl" as we like to call her were seen sharing some intimate moments. Our sources saw the two in a roller rink and in a popular restaurant/ club dancing, laughing and flirting, which causes us to wonder is Mr. Cullen's formerly single status has been changed.

Our cameras caught the two in some very intimate positions, as seen in the pictures. We do not know who his mystery girl is, but she has seemed to put the sparkle back in Cullen's eyes. The adorable couple seems to be very happy, especially Edward, who we have not seen this happy in a very, very long time.

I just stared at the paper for a minute pondering what I'd just read.

So, apparently we looked good together, and I "put the sparkle back in Edward's eye" whatever the hell that meant.

I reached down to pick up my phone so that I could call Edward but as I touched the phone, there was a knock at the door. I threw on my pink silk robe and went to answer the door.

"Edward?" I answered.

"Bella, have you seen the tabloids?" he asked in a surprised tone.

"Yeah, Emily just showed it to me!" I exclaimed.

"I can't believe that there was actually some creep brave enough to try stalk us even with Little Timmy around!" he said, slightly angrily.

"I know! I don't have a clue how they were able to get the picture of us kissing!" I exclaimed.

"Exactly! And I don't know why they assume that just because I'm hanging around a super hot girl and taking her on dates and being intimate with her and just because that I've never exactly done this with any other girl before and just because I've never felt so happy in my entire life because of her that she's my girlfriend!!!!" he vented.

At first I only heard the surface meaning of his words, but when his breath caught, as if to say that he realized he said something he shouldn't have, I repeated his rant in my head. I gasped.

"You-you've never done this with any other girl before?" I asked quietly. He sighed.

"No, Bella, I haven't," he replied softly.

There was an awkward pause as I replayed his rant in my head again.

"You've really never felt so happy in your entire life? Because of m-m-me?" I asked shyly, blushing.

"Bella, I'm being completely honest when I say this; before I met you, I was a complete loner. I had my friends, but they were all coupled off. When I met you, I realized that you made me smile and laugh more than anyone else I've dated. And though I'm aware that I've only known you for two days now, you have made me genuinely happy," he replied.

I was speechless.

He used his hands to push back the hair that had fallen into my face. He dropped one arm to snake it around my waist, and used his other hand to cup my face.

"Bella," he breathed, and he slowly pressed his lips to mine. I wrapped my arms around his neck and kissed him back tenderly for a moment, before pulling away.

"I don't understand, why are you mad at the tabloids then, if almost everything they said was true?" I asked.

"Because they are always making these assumptions about me and the paparazzi follow me everywhere and it's annoying. Even though I must say that you look pretty damn hot in those pictures," he replied. I blushed.

"You look pretty amazing yourself," I laughed, "and I can understand about the paparazzi thing. They must be annoying."

"Yeah," he sighed, "anyways I don't want to take up all of your morning, so I'll go now."

"You really don't have to," I countered.

"Bella, you are hardly awake or dressed. I'll let you wake up properly so that you're not miserable later, okay?" he said with a slight laugh, caressing my face, "Though I must admit, you look so delicious standing here in that tiny pink silk robe." I blushed like crazy and Edward chuckled.

"Alright, I guess, I'll go wake up and freshen up so that we can have a great time this evening," I said with a smile.

"Good. I'll see you later then."

"Most definitely," I replied and he started walking away down the corridor. I watched him for a few seconds before running after him and placing a kiss on his cheek. I blushed and ran back to the room, very aware that he was watching me. As I closed the door, I felt like an infatuated teenager all over again. I walked back into my bedroom where Emily was sitting down on my bed with that "all-knowing" smile on her face. I sat down on her bed and just looked at her.

When the silence became too much for me and her piercing look was driving me mad I had to say something.

"What?" I asked impatiently.

"The chemistry between you two is intense, and neither of you realize it!" she exclaimed.

"What are you talking about? I already told you I like him and now you know that he likes me too," I retorted.

"Yes, yes, Bella, I know that. I'm talking about the unspoken chemistry between you guys. The way he looks at you, the way he makes your insides melt, the way your face brightens up his day; it's like there is an electrical charge between you two! It's so obvious! Why do you think that the tabloids are making these assumptions?? Because it is so obvious!" she explained.

I thought that over for a minute. She was right about the making my insides melt thing, and according to Edward, she was also apparently right about the whole my face brightening his day thing. I considered what she said.

"Okay, Em, you have a tiny point, but in any case, I don't think he wants me. Yeah, so he likes me, a lot of people like me. They're called my friends. He could never want me as anything more than a friend."

"Bella, were you listening to a single word I said?? I just said that you guys had amazing chemistry! And besides, I don't think the case is whether he wants you, it's if YOU want HIM."

I sighed. "I don't know, Em. I've known the guy all of three days now, and I'm being honest with you here when I say these next things. He's the funniest and sweetest out of the few guys I've ever dated or even met for that matter, he makes me laugh, the sound of his voice makes my heart flutter, I get lost in his gorgeous eyes and even though I've only known him for 3 days it feels like he's someone I've been friends with my entire life! But we're still too different: he's a rock star and I'm just Bella; he's rich and I'm barely hanging on; he's absolutely HOT damn it and I'm just plain. He would never want a girl like me, and so I'm scared because I like him so much."

Emily came and wrapped an arm around me.

"I can see that you're scared, Bella, and it's okay," she comforted.

"Our worlds are too different and it might be hell if they should collide, which is why I'm so scared. I'm scared to imagine that bad outcome of pursuing a relationship with him."

"Hey, you'll never know if you don't try. Now enough with the sappy conversation let's go find you a super hot outfit to wear tonight!" she laughed as she dragged me from the room.

Edward's POV

"Alice! Alice!!" I called as I ran back into my own hotel suite.

"I'm in here, Edward," she replied, and it sounded like it was coming from the kitchenette. I ran into where her voice was coming from.

"Alice, I need some advice," I panted, severely out of breath.

"Let me guess, it has something to do with Bella, right?" she guessed.

"Yes, it does. Alice, I don't know what to do. My feelings are all mixed up. Bella is the one girl who has made me so incredibly happy, and yet she's leaving tomorrow morning. She's an incredible and beautiful woman with so many wonderful talents and abilities, and every time I hug her or hold her I never want to let go. I really, REALLY like her, Alice, and I don't know what to do. I want to keep up my friendly relationship with her, and yet I can't seem to help but wish that it were something more. I don't know what these feelings are that I have for her exactly, and it's even worse seeing as she's going back to Forks tomorrow. I'm so confused," I admitted.

"Edward, let me answer your question with one of my own. Do you believe in love at first sight?" she asked me.

I thought that one over before even attempting to answer.

Love at first sight.

I kept repeating it over and over again, and every time I thought the word 'love', Bella's face kept popping up in my mind.

"Chew on it, Edward," Alice chided as she left the room.

Stupid little pixie was always so cryptic.

Love at first sight…..

Bella's POV

Emily dragged me all over the mall that afternoon, making me try on outfit after outfit until she finally decided on one. See this is exactly why I don't like shopping.

When we finally got back to the hotel at around 4 (I seriously don't know how it is possible to spend 4 hours in the mall looking for ONE outfit), Emily insisted that I showered and got ready, seeing as she wanted to spend some quality time on my hair and makeup.

I decided that a long, hot shower was exactly what I needed to relax my nerves. I was really anxious to see Edward, but also really nervous. I was really hoping that tonight would be the night that he would begin to want me as more than just a friend, so that when I go back to Forks he'll have a reason to stay in touch with me.

I spent an entire half an hour in the shower. I even shaved my legs again, especially because the outfit I was wearing called for smooth legs.

When I got out of the shower and walked into our bedroom, wearing my blue silk robe this time, Emily was sitting right there with the whole outfit laid out for me. She smiled at me, and I took up everything on the bed and went back into the bathroom to get dressed.

I was searching amongst the pile of clothes for the underwear which Em felt was appropriate for the evening, and I was so shocked when I saw a hot pink thong and matching strapless bra. I marched out of the bathroom and held up the underwear to Emily.

"What do you call THIS?????" I asked.

"I call it sexy. If he's going to be looking, might as well give him something hot to look at," she replied with a wink and she got up and walked out of the bedroom.

I stared after her incredulously.

"And besides, it will help you realize that you are sexy if you FEEL sexy," she added, popping her head through the doorframe, only to disappear a second later. I shook my head and walked back into the bathroom and closed the door.

I put on the underwear and looked at myself in it in the mirror for a minute. I didn't last looking at myself for more than 10 seconds because I was so embarrassed to see myself in it.

I finished putting on the rest of the outfit and this time really stood back and looked at myself properly. Emily had chosen for me a completely black and white outfit, minus the jewelry and the shoes which I had yet to put on which were red, consisting of a black halter top with a low cut V-neckline, a white miniskirt, and a very thinly striped black and white pair of leggings which stopped right below my knee.

I truthfully would not have picked this outfit out for myself, and I honestly did feel kind of sexy in it, and I hoped that Edward would think that I was too.

I left the bathroom and went into the bedroom to face the horrors that were hair and makeup.

"Bella! You look absolutely gorgeous!!!" Emily exclaimed when she saw me. I blushed at sat down at the mini vanity desk so that she could have fun doing my hair. I knew that Em wouldn't allow me to do my own hair once I'm going out with Edward, because my hair would end up in my quick-fix go-to hairstyle: a messy bun. She figured that it would be better for her to do my hair so that he would get to see what "lovely hair I have underneath the bun".

For the next hour and a half, Emily did everything in her power to make my hair and face look good. When she eventually revealed her masterpiece to me, I was stunned.

She had flat-ironed my hair, and had even given me this adorable and sweet bang which she had swept to the side, and left the rest of my hair out. She kept my makeup relatively simple, with a light pink eye shadow, plum eyeliner and black mascara. She insisted that I wear a bold red lipgloss to go with my accessories. She didn't even bother to put on any blush since she knew that my natural blush would do the job perfectly.

"So, what do you think?" she asked after a little while.

"I think that I absolutely love you right about now! Emily, I look great!! Thank you so much!" I exclaimed, hugging her tightly. She laughed.

"Sure thing Bella, anything for my best friend."

"Okay you definitely have to go into cosmetics, fashion design and hairdressing because you are simply genius!" I complimented her.

"Hey, that's not a bad idea! Thanks, Bells!" she hugged me again and skipped happily into the kitchen.

I put on the blood red pumps that Em chose for me, despite all my warnings that I'll fall saying "if you fall, Edward will have to hold you up", and the thought of Edward holding me again had completely flooded my mind, so much so that I didn't come back to reality after she had bought them.

I finally finished putting on the earrings when I heard a knock at the door. I glanced at the clock on the wall, 7:00pm exactly. Wow that boy sure is punctual.

Alice gave me one last hug for good luck, and I grabbed my purse and opened the door.

My Greek god was standing there with that breathtaking crooked smile on his face. He was wearing a dark pair of jeans and a white button-down shirt. He was carrying a jacket in his hand.

I didn't realize that neither of us had said anything yet, we were just staring into one another's eyes.

"Hey, Edward," I began, "You look really nice tonight."

"Oh, umm, hey, umm, Bella," he replied stumbling over his words, "You, umm, look, umm WOW, Bella. You look absolutely-"

"Plain? Boring?" I suggested, helping him along in his loss of words.

"No. I was actually thinking more along the lines of sinfully delicious and appealing," he murmured as he took a step closer to me. I felt my blush creep up my cheeks, and Edward used the backs of his fingers to caress my cheek at that spot. His touch sent a shiver down my spine. "Are you ready to go?"

"Sure thing," I replied, slightly dazzled. I closed the door behind me. We started walking down the corridor, heading out of the hotel. We were walking in silence for a while, and I couldn't help but notice the strange urge that I had to hold his hand. It was as if some strange force of attraction existed between us that was making me want to hold his hand so desperately. Apparently, Edward was feeling it too, because by the time that we had reached the lobby, he wound his fingers through mine. I sighed a heavy sigh of relief, feeling perfectly at home with my hand in his.

When we reached out to his car, I noticed Little Timmy as well as another huge bodyguard stalking us from behind. I figured that Edward was really upset with the paparazzi. Edward helped me into his car before getting himself in, and we were soon on our way.

"So, Bella how was your day?" Edward asked.

"Well, it was interesting when you showed up this morning, and then after you left I succumbed to playing Bella-Barbie with Emily," I replied and Edward laughed. "Yeah, she dragged me shopping again and then when we got home she was all over my face and hair. That's part of the reason why I look the way I do now."

"Well at least the raw material she had to work with was already very beautiful on her own," Edward complimented, making me blush. "That's why you look so utterly gorgeous tonight. I'm still stunned."

"Thanks, Edward, so how was your day? What did you do all day?" I asked.

"My day was great actually, and I'll show you what I did all day later, after the movie," he said and winked at me. His response got me wondering what on earth he could have done that would make him have to show it to me?

We continued chatting for the rest of the ride, and we finally pulled up at the movie theatre at about 7:30. Once again Edward helped me out the car, and we walked into the theatre hand in hand.

"So what movie would you like to see? It's all about you tonight so you pick," Edward asked me when we were inside.

I quickly looked through the movies that were showing, trying to remember if I had seen a commercial for any of them. Then one struck me as looking familiar.

"I've seen the trailers for that Twilight movie," I eventually said, "it's supposed to be a romance/horror kind of thing."

"Well Twilight it is," Edward agreed and he bought the tickets and we went to find seats. The theatre was relatively full, but there were two seats at the back and in the corner that were empty, and so we went and sat there. It was very cozy back there, with not that many people directly around us. We continued talking until the movie started, and every time he made a sweet compliment I'd blush, and I'd feel this odd tingly sensation in my chest, a sensation that caused me to smile.

Eventually, the lights went out and the movie began, and there was that same urge to hold his hand. This time I didn't hesitate to hold it. I saw him smile through the darkness, and again I felt home in his hand.

The movie progressed, and as expected it was a romance movie. I was hyper-aware of how close Edward and I were seated, and when I looked down, I noticed that he had lifted up the armrest so that he could sit closer to me. I smiled and continued watching the movie.

About halfway through the movie, the main characters began leaning in for a kiss, and I felt Edward's grip on my hand get tighter. Because he was sitting on my left side and I was holding his left hand, he had used his right arm earlier to snake around my waist, and now that hand was rubbing small circles into my waist. When the main characters finally kissed, it was one of the hottest and most passionate kisses I had ever seen, and Edward's grip just kept getting tighter and tighter, and I knew that he wanted to kiss me. So I used my hands to cradle his face, and I kissed him roughly. He kissed me back eagerly, sucking on my lower lip. I pulled away, gasping for air. Edward looked at me and smiled, and I went back to holding his hand.

The movie eventually ended with another kiss, and this time Edward wasn't afraid to attack my face first.

"So how did you like the movie?" I asked Edward as we walked out of the theatre.

"For a chick flick, it was really good," he replied and I rolled my eyes.

"So where are we headed to now?" I asked.

"Well I know that you wanted to go to my little 'place'," he began while helping me into the car. He got in and continued, "But I discovered this sweet little secluded place that I think you'll like, and it will be perfect to watch the meteor shower. I was wandering around earlier, when I stumbled upon the place and I thought it was so serene and calm and perfect."

"Sounds nice, I can't wait to see it. Is that what you wanted to show me?"

"No it isn't. What I want to show you, well, more like give you, is somewhat like a parting gift. I don't know when I'll see you again, and so I have a sort of present for you."

"Awww, Edward, you didn't have to go and get me anything," I replied.

"Oh no, I didn't spend a penny on it. It's a gift that I can't wrap up and put in a box," he said, and he winked at me.

A short while after, Edward pulled up into the parking lot at the local park. He helped me out of the car, and we began walking slowly through the park, hand in hand, with Edward slightly leading. We were making light conversation during our walk.

After about 10 minutes of walking along the prescribed path, Edward began leading me off into nearby trees.

"Edward? Are you sure that we are going the right way?" I asked, becoming nervous.

"I'm absolutely positive," he replied with a smile. It wasn't a very far or long trek, but after a while, we emerged from the trees into a gorgeous moonlit meadow. The grass under my feet was incredibly soft and lush, and Edward's presence here earlier was very obvious. There was a blanket laid out on the grass, with several pillows scattered on it. I looked upwards, and noticed that this meadow had the most perfect view of the star-speckled sky above.

I felt Edward's arms around my waist and his soft lips at my ear.

"Do you like it?" he murmured, his velvety voice melting my insides like butter.

"Edward, it is absolutely gorgeous and perfect!" I exclaimed in a hushed tone, "is this what you wanted to show me?"

"This is part of it, yes," he replied, "Sit down, and I'll get your real present for you." I sat down on the blanket and crossed my legs. Edward disappeared behind a tree for a second, and came back holding his guitar. My breathing hitched. I hope he wasn't going to give me his guitar.

"Bella," he began, "These past few days have been three of the greatest of my life, and it's all because of you. I know I've only known you these few days, but I honestly have very strong feelings for you, feelings which have only been amplified. I really don't want to say goodbye to you tomorrow, and though I know I will eventually have to, it will be one of the hardest things I ever have to do. And so, I've written you a song. It's not much, but it perfectly sums up all the feelings I've developed for you over these past few days and how much you mean to me."

My heart did a cartwheel.

He began playing and singing his that lovely angel's voice of his.

If time was still
The sun would never, never find us
We could light up the sky tonight
I would see the world through your eyes
Leave it all behind

It's you and me forever
It's you and me right now
That'd be alright, (be alright)
Were Chasing stars to lose our shadow
Peter Pan and Wendy turned out fine
So won't you fly with me?

Oh, yeah
Gonna fly with me now

Now the past
Has come alive
And give it meaning
And a reason
To give all I can
To believe once again

It's you and me forever
It's you and me right now
That'd be alright, (be alright)
Chasing stars to lose our shadow
Peter Pan and Wendy turned out fine
So won't you fly with me?

Maybe you were just afraid
Knowing you were miles away
From the place where you needed to be
And that's right here with me

you and me forever
you and me right now
That'd be alright

It's you and me forever,
It's you and me right now
I'll be alright, (be alright)
Chasing stars to lose our shadow
Peter Pan and Wendy turned out fine
So won't you fly, fly, fly with me?

The song stopped and I felt the tears of joy beginning to roll down my face. I was so speechless.

"Bella, I was so confused about my feelings towards you, that I went to Alice to ask her advice, and she responded by asking me one question, and in her question I found my answer," Edward said. He came and sat closer to me and took both of my hands in his. He looked deeply into my eyes before continuing, "Bella, I can't ignore the chemistry between us. Every time I hold your hands, it's like electricity flowing through my veins; it just feels RIGHT, and I know that you feel it too."

I was still totally speechless, tears still coming. Edward was taking all my feelings for him and repeating them back to me.

He leaned in closer, so that our faces were about 5 inches apart.

"Bella, do you believe in love at first sight?" he asked. My heart raced. I couldn't believe my ears! I think that he was confessing to loving me! I thought back a few days to the exact moment when I felt that new pull towards Edward Cullen. I smiled and caressed his face as I prepared to answer. I leaned in close to his ear.

"Actually, for me, it was more like love at first kiss," I eventually said, and I attached my lips to his. He wasn't expecting me to do that, and he fell backwards, so that I was on top of him, all the while not breaking the kiss. I felt him smile under my lips, and he deepened the kiss. It was passionate and sensual, and my tears of joy never once stopped. I eventually pulled away when breathing became necessary, and I looked at his smiling, triumphant face, and I smiled back. He wiped away my tears.

"I love you Isabella Swan," he said.

"I love you too Edward Cullen," I replied. The tingly sensation in my chest returned as I said those words, and it felt as if the empty piece of my heart had been filled. It was no wonder why I couldn't identify the feeling; it was because I'd never truly been in love—until now that is.

I gave Edward a tight hug, and I laid my head on his chest as we watched the meteor shower from our perfect little meadow, in total and complete happiness.
