Flip it!
"Flip it! Flip it now!"
Edward flipped the burnt pancake over and smiled. "Did you see that?" He was so proud of himself. I laughed out loud. He eyed me suspiciously so I stopped and looked at the black pancake.
"It's a little burnt…" His face fell as I said this so I quickly added, "But a little burnt is always the best! Plus, I can just scrape most of it off anyway." His face lit up again and I kissed him on the cheek.
"I think it's ready now." He said and scooped the pancake up then put it down on a plate. I took the plate and sat down at the table where I had a bowl of strawberries and cream. Edward had whipped the cream himself.
"Would the chef like to have the honors?" I asked handing Edward the fork.
He shook his head. "No thanks."
I pulled a sad face. "Aw, not even for me?" Edward smiled and took the fork. He cut off a little piece of pancake and was about to put it into his mouth when I stopped him.
"Wait! You have to have some strawberry's and cream!"
He sighed and quickly picked up a strawberry and added some cream then put it into his mouth. I watched, wide-eyed and O-mouthed as he chewed then swallowed.
"Was there something wrong with it?" I asked.
"What do you mean?"
"Well, you kind of looked like you were chewing on paper."
Edward looked down. "That's because I couldn't taste anything."
"It was that bad?"
"No, Bella. I mean I can't taste anything."
"Wow. That's a shame, coz this tastes great!" I said with a mouthful. Edward pulled a face and kissed my forehead.
"See Bella? This is another thing I would be taking away from you if you were changed."
"If?" I raised an eyebrow. I was pretty certain that I was definitely going to be changed after graduation. Maybe Edward had other plans.
"Let's not discuss this right now." He said before I could argue.
I finished my pancake and Edward took my plate and washed it. I stood up and a second later I was doubled over, gasping.
"Bella?" Edward was suddenly right next to me, a very worried expression on his perfect face.
I pulled myself together and smiled, trying to ignore the stabbing pain in my stomach. "I'm fine." I lied.
"Are you sure? Do you need to lie down?" He was about to pick me up when I put up my hand. "No, really. I'm fine."
He didn't look convinced but I could tell that he sensed I didn't want to argue. "Ok, then. Well, I have to go for a couple of hours, but I'll be back as quick as I can, ok?"
"Why do you have to go?"
He didn't want to tell me, but I wasn't going to let him go without me knowing why.
"Edward? Why do you have to go?"
"I'll tell you later." A look of disgust crawled upon my face but I quickly wiped it off and replaced it with a small, fake, happy smile.
"Ok. I'll see you in a couple of hours then."
He bent down and kissed my cheek. "I love you." He whispered in my ear before disappearing suddenly. I dropped to the floor, exhausted. I gave in to crying, hoping it might ease the pain in my stomach. It didn't help so I crawled up to my bedroom, ignoring the carpet burn that now stung on my knees. I didn't mind though- my stomach hurt much worse.

I rolled over and felt a cool hand on my cheek. I snapped my eyes open to see Edward perfect, pale face in front of mine.
"You're back." I whispered.
"Yes. I am." He ran his hand up and down my cheek, staring into my eyes.
"How are you feeling?" He asked quietly.
"I'm fine. Why would there be anything wrong with me?"
"You went to bed in the middle of the afternoon."
"I was just tired."
"Fine. I believe you." He didn't. I could tell.
"Good."
Minutes that really felt like hours passed as Edward and I lay in silence, perfectly content with just being in each other's arms.
"Do you want to go back to sleep or should we get up now?" Edward said.
"I looked up to his face and pouted. "Can't we just stay like this? It's so nice."
"Absolutely not!" He sounded appalled. I looked up at him again, this time looking confused. He chuckled gently and sat up.
"Come on. Let's get up. I want to do something today."
"Like what?" I asked slowly as I sat up.
"I have no idea actually."
I thought for a moment. "How about we tell Alice some ideas and ask her if we'll have fun?"
Edward smiled and lifted me up in his arms. "Sounds like a plan."
Sorry, I know that chapter was pretty horrible but I was having trouble with words and ideas- just happens sometimes :(
Thanks for reading! Don't be afraid to review!
