Last time...

I was tired, sore and satisfied, and as I lay there on the cusp of sleep I realized that Me, 19 year old Bella just made love for the first time to my 26 year old biology professor, and more important, I was happy and for the first time in over a year. I regretted nothing now, because everything up until this point lead me here to where I was right now in the arms of my lover and my love.

Jumping ahead almost 2 years later, Bella is just about to start her 3rd year university.

It has been a little over a year and a half since that weekend when Charlie was hit by a car, and William and I got together. It's the end of August now and I will be entering my 3rd year of university in a few short days.

About 6 months ago Will and I broke the news to Charlie that we were dating, and had been dating for a year already, to say he was upset would be a major understatement. He was mostly upset that the relationship had gone on for so long without me telling him, not that Will had been my professor when had we started dating, but after I explained to him that when we decided to start dating he had, had more important things like healing to worry about and that I wanted to make sure it was a solid relationship before I told him to save him worrying about me, he understood.

Will had taken this summer off from summer term, so that he and I could go on vacation together, and so we headed to Britain. Between his heritage and the fact that he still had family over there that we could stay with, free of charge, and my love of reading, Britain really was our only choice. We spent a month traveling, visiting family and literary sites along the way. It had been an amazing trip and on the last night we were there Will had taken me out to dinner and then on the London Eye where he asked me to move in with him, while all of London sparkled before our eyes. I, of course, said yes!

When we returned from the UK, we spent a month in forks with Charlie. Will and I had talked about it and since he was taking time off for our trip anyways we might as well give Charlie one last chance at having me under his roof for any substantial amount of time, and when Charlie raised no objections to Will's being there also, we told him we would be there as soon as we got home from Britain.

I had given up my apartment at the end of term last term, because I knew I would be gone for 2 months straight and didn't want any extra money being wasted, so when Will asked me to move in with him it was actually kind of perfect, all my belongings were already in his storage unit.

Our month at Charlie's had flown by, and I was impressed at how well Charlie and Will got along. Every Saturday they would abandon me and go fishing, declaring it was 'man time' whatever that means, and then they would return home happy, relaxed and in possession of far too many fish, for my liking, for me to fry while they sat down with beers to watch 'the game'. I pretended to care but really I loved that not only did they get along but wanted to spend time with each other.

After the whole car accident thing Charlie had started to see Amanda, the nurse who had taken care of him and they seemed to be getting serious. Will thinks that Charlie is going to ask her to marry him in the next year. During our stay in forks Will met Billy and Jake and after some serious grilling (worse than even Charlie had done) they gave their approval, though Will did say later that Jake had threatened to kill him if he ever did anything to hurt me.

In July Will and I made our way back to Seattle and officially I moved in. We spent the remainder of July and August together doing nothing at all. We would walk down to the public market, and go sit and have coffee for hours while we read, on nice days we would go out on Will's boat, where I would read while he cruised the harbour and sometimes when we found ourselves in a secluded alcove, we would make love on deck. It was an amazing summer.

But now it was back to reality, at the end of the weekend I would be back in school, Will was already back to work. He had to go in to get ready for the upcoming term and apparently he was showing some doctor who wanted to try his hand at teaching biology the ropes. I guess it was mandatory for professors to 'shadow' someone for at least a week in order to cut down on problems such as not knowing where the fax machine was etc...

Personally I think a week is a little excessive, hand the man a map, and let him find his way, If he is a professor he's bound to be smart enough to ask for help when and if he needs it, but I wasn't consulted on this policy so Will had been spending a lot of time on campus as of late, and I couldn't even sneak into his office to play "what can I do for a passing grade" since his shadow was there. But Will seemed to like the guy and seeing how he was showing the guy around now, apparently that meant he wouldn't have to do it again.

When Will got home on Friday he said he thought this new guy was going to be fantastic and that they were become quick friends. He asked if it would be okay if he invited him and his wife over for dinner some night. We were still pretty careful about who knew about us on campus, just in case, so it meant a lot that he trusted this guy enough to invite him over.

The weekend passed too fast and on Monday I started school. The week went by in a blur and before I knew it, it was Thursday. Will and I had both managed to coordinate our schedules and both had Fri, Sat, Sun off, the price was that we spent less time together the rest of the week.

Friday night Charlie and Amanda came up and had my dreaded 'Birthday Dinner' with me where Will surprised me with 2 tickets for Las Vegas declaring, "You only turn 21 once so you have to do it right". We left that night and Charlie and Amanda were staying at our place until we got back on Sunday.

We Stayed at the Venetian, and did all the dorky touristy things a person can do, fake gondola ride and all. On Saturday Will took me out on a truly romantic day where we had gone by helicopter to the Grand Canyon, We stopped at one of the viewpoints where a gourmet picnic was set up for just the 2 of us champagne and all. We were standing together watching the sunset looking out over the Grand Canyon when I felt him step away from me. When I turned around to see what he was doing, candles were lit and there he was, kneeled on 1 knee in front of me. "Isabella Marie Swan, I have loved you since the first day I saw you, and with each day my heart grows to love you impossibly more. I knew that first night we watched the sunset on first beach that you were my forever. Bella I never want to see a sunset without you by my side, will you be my wife?"

"Yes!" I cried kneeling down next to him while he place the ring upon my finger, It was absolutely stunning, a flawless 2 carrot square cut solitaire on a platinum band, Simple yet extraordinary, he knew me so well not to get me something overdone and flashy. I stayed kneeling while I peppered his face in Kisses only stopping when I heard a throat clearing and someone say behind me, " I'm sorry sir, madam but we must be heading back now" We flew back to Vegas in total bliss. That night, after Will Persuaded me to play at least a couple slot machines saying, "It's Vegas after all" I left Vegas not only engaged but 5, 000 dollars richer.

I hadn't called Charlie or Renee to announce the engagement because Charlie, I wanted to tell in person and Renee would be so excited that I needed a lot of time on my hands before I picked up the phone for that conversation.

When we landed at SeaTac, Charlie and Amanda were there to meet us, with Amanda running up to me screaming, "OMG BELLA I'M ENGAGED!"

I being in my own little world said, "Who told you I was engaged?"

"OMG YOUR ENGAGED TOO???" she replied

"What do you mean too?" And then it clicked, "AMANDA YOUR ENGAGED?"

"YES!"

We jumped around like 5 year olds until security came and asked us to keep it down or exit the building, apparently we were scaring the passengers. When I looked at Charlie he had such a big smile on his face he looked 20 years younger and it warmed my heart to see.

Grabbing both my men by the arms to pull them out to the parking lot a said, "You guys planned this together didn't you?"

"Well I had to ask your dads permission first after all, and once he knew my plan we put our heads together for his and it all just worked out" Will said kissing my cheek.

"You're not mad at me are you Kiddo, I know I probably should have made sure your okay with this before I went and popped the question but..."

"But nothing Dad, I'm thrilled for you and of course I'm okay with it but even if I hadn't been. You need to put yourself first. "I said, "It's about time, now I can hand over the cooking to somebody else and I don't have to worry about what you're eating all the time, you're in good hands with Amanda."

"Hey, I'm the Chief of police you know I don't need someone to cook for me."

"Sure Sure dad, keep telling yourself that Dad." I said smiling and hugging his arm closer to me.

Charlie and Amanda left that night and Monday morning came again all too soon.

Will had already left for school to teach his morning class when I got an E-mail from my afternoon professor saying class for today was cancelled. It was perfect, I still had my evening class but it gave me plenty of time to go and surprise my fiancé at his office.

He had asked me a couple times to dress up in a catholic school girl outfit and I never have, but after all the work he went through planning the perfect proposal, I figured he earned it. I went to the store and got the outfit. After I came home and put the finishing touches on it I packed a spare change of clothes to change into before class and left putting on my long cashmere trench coat to cover up my outfit. Thankfully there was no one Outside Wills Office, so when I snuck in to wait nobody saw me. At exactly 2:00 Will cam through his office door to find me in pigtails declaring my teacher has sent me to be spanked for bad behavior.

Will was on me in seconds his books forgotten on the floor. After a little dirty talk about what the head master should do to punish this naughty little school girl I found myself sitting on my bare ass on the cool wood of Will's desk; with my barely there skirt up around my hips. Will had taken my underwear as part of my punishment and was just about to get down to business when the door flew open, And a blonde Adonis walked in saying, "I'm so sorry I'm late Will I got caught up... Oh my! I'm sorry, I'll come back." He said trying to rush back out the door.

"Shit, Carlisle, I forgot about him, put your coat on honey, Please, I'll be right back." Will said doing his pants back up and running out his door.

5 minutes later I sat on Will's sofa in his office clutching my coat tightly shut, telling myself there is no way humanly possible that was who I thought it was. When there was a slight nock at the door, "Bella honey, you all good?" came Wills voice. Damn men, I could hear the smile in his voice, he actually like that we were caught in the act.

"Yes Will," I said, head in my hands looking down as he came into his office. 2 sets of footprints, Oh no he had brought him back.

"Carlisle, I'd like you to meet my Fiancé Bella, Bella this is the man I was telling you about that I was showing the ropes to before school, Carlisle"

I looked up and was met by the all too familiar golden eyes. Sure enough Carlisle Cullen was the new biology professor my soon to be husband has befriended.

"It's nice to meet you Carlisle" I said, then fainted.
