A/N: Hey guy's, sorry this has taken me so long too get up. I've been having a slight writer's block. But it's good now. So here is the new chapter, i hope you like it. Oh and check out my other stories on here. Well I will try to update soon. BPOV: Edward and I are on our way to … well I'm not quite sure where. But, we're going somewhere. We both stayed silent after I said that I hated surprises. So we are now driving down a road in the middle of nowhere and I have no clue where we are. Then a thought occurs to me. 'What if Edward is a serial killer! Wait, then Alice and I wouldn't be such good friends… maybe she doesn't know.' I was so caught up in my surreal thoughts that I didn't notice the car had stopped until Edward spoke. "We're here," he stated. However, all I could see was trees. I look at him skeptically before saying. "And were is here exactly?" he chuckled at this and got out of the car not answering my question. He walked to my side of the car and opened the door. I got out and starred at him. He offered me his hand again and I hesitantly accepted. With that, we began walking towards the woods. This confuses me. But I continue to follow him to where ever he is taking me. We slowly begin our to make our way deeper into the woods. The darkness only continued to grow the farther in we got. But slowly it began to lighten up. Like we weren't as deep as I thought we were. I feel like we've been walking for miles when finally the tree line starts to show. We walk towards it and I can feel Edwards eyes on me. I look up at him with a questioning and confused look on my face. He just chuckled and looked forward once more. I continue to look at him. Taking in his features. His beautiful green emerald eyes, his angular jar line, his messy bronze hair. I was so caught up in looking at him that I was jerked back when he stopped walking. I looked at him for a second longer and I looked forward and gasped. APOV: Edward had told me about his feelings for Bella and I was thrilled. I barley know her and I already love her like a sister. So does Emmett, he's protective of her like he is of me. After I squealed and Edward and I talked more he left to his room. I was sitting there think about what it would be like to be related to her. We would have so much fun together. Then my thoughts wander. Edward should show her his place. The place that he goes to think, clear his mind. He always come's back happy. Bella would love it, he says it's beautiful, although I'm not quite sure what it looks like because he won't take any of us there. It's just him and nature. Again I squeal then go skipping into Edwards room to tell him about my idea. "Edward, Edward, Edward!" I say as I enter. "What Alice" he groans. "I think you should take Bella to your place" I state. "What place… I don't have a place. I live here." he responds. I laugh at this and he just looks at me confused. "Not place like that. The place you always talk about. Where you go to think." "Oh… Yea that place. Hmm, well seeing as how I seem to be going there and thinking about her a lot that could be a good idea." he states. I think more so to himself than to me. So I just walk out. Yay! I think to myself. I wonder when he's going to take her there. I hope soon though because I don't want her to think he doesn't like her. I can see the way they look at each other. So can Emmett and he's clueless half the time. So when he notices it, it must be pretty obvious. -Flashback- Rosalie, emmett, Jasper, Edward and I are all sitting in the living room. Edward is staring out the window lost in his thoughts. "Whatcha' thinking about Eddie?" emmett asked. "Be… Nothing." Edward replies. "And how many times do I have to tell you not to call me eddie?" "Forever, and are you thinking about bella?" emmett says. I cant help at laugh by this whole situation. Edward doesn't respond. So I ask the question again "Were you just about to say bella?" I ask Edward. "No, why would you think that?" Edward asks, trying to be inconspicuous. "Oh, no reason" I say with the hint of a smile playing at my lips. -End Flashback- I laugh at the memory of Edward trying to hide his feelings. Although he clearly can't, at least not well. EPOV: The whole drive there I cant help but to be nervous. I mean I don't know if Bella will like it or hate it. I don't even know if she likes me like I do her. It's ridiculous. I shouldn't care this much, I only just met her. But I care more about what she thinks, and how she feels than I ever have about anyone. We finally pull in and the nervous feeling only get's worse. Why did I let Alice talk me into this. I hate her so much right now. Well Bella's dad did kind of ditch her. And she did agree to come with me. "We're here" I say to both of us. Bella looked at me skeptically before saying "And were is here exactly?" I chuckle at this and get out of the car not answering her question. I open Bella's door for her. She gets out and just stares at me. The nervousness picks up again and I offer her my hand. She hesitates for a moment before accepting. And with that we begin to walk towards the woods. We begin to walk deeper and deeper and I continue to get more nervous. We walk in silence, just holding hands. As we get closer to the opening, I can feel her staring at me. I stop when we brake the through the tree line, and I watch as she gets pulled back. She looks back at me for a moment before looking forward. 'This is it, the moment of truth' I think to myself. Then I hear her gasp. This freaks me out drastically. BPOV: I stare straight ahead for a moment, I don't know what to think. It's beautiful, it's amazing, it's a place that someone like him would find. In front of me there is a beautiful lake, so crystal clear you could see the bottom. The trees inside of the clearing are so green, I've never seen anything like it before. There are flowers blooming up everywhere, in purple, pink, yellow, blue and orange. The rolling hills in the background made everything look so open, almost like cities don't exist. On the side of the lake opposite Edward and me, there is a small dock, it looks old, but sturdy. I stare at the scene in front of me. Edward shifted nervously next to me, I should probably say something. "Edward, I- it's beautiful. Amazing, I love it." I reply finally looking at him. A look of relief washed over his face. "I'm glad you do Bella." he said while grabbing my hand and leading us toward the lake. Once we reach the edge he stops and looks at me. "You know, we know all the major things about each other. But we don't know the details." he said with a chuckle. "Yea I noticed that too. So what's your favorite color?" I asked Edward "Brown, yours?" "Green" "Hmm, what's your favorite book?" "Wuthering heights and Romeo and Juliet, you?" "That's hard. I like a lot of the classics." "Favorite type of music" "Well I listen to a lot of music as you have seen. I especially like Debussy. What about you?" "I listen to almost anything except metal and most rock. What's your favorite by Debussy?" "Claire De Lune." "Me too." I responded. By this time we've reached the dock. We turn and go sit on the edge facing the direction we just came from. A peaceful silence washes over Edward and me. I cant help but to thing how he found this place. I feel like we walked forever to get here. "How did you find this place?" I question him. "Well I was walking through the woods trying to calm down after mike made me want to punch his face in. I walked so long and when I broke through the tree line, this is what I found." he explained "So it was purely by accident?" "Yea, I've never brought anyone here before." "So it's a secret place?" I asked amused. "Well it's not really a secret anymore, you're here." he stated with a chuckle. At that I smirked. "That just means it's our secret." I stated, completely serious. "You know I could kill you out here and no one would ever know." he said. "But you wouldn't hurt me, I trust you." I replied. He smirked laughing. "You shouldn't have said that" he states. With that he gets up and I follow. He grabs my waist and kisses me passionately, then throws us both into the lake. I come up for air, and he's not up yet. So I swim over to the edge of the lake and climb out. Then I see him pop up again. He swims over to me and reaches for my hand but I run to the dock. He follows swimming. Then reaches his hand out for me again, before he can say anything I cannon ball over his head into the lake. I come up and begin to laugh by the look of bewilderment that is on his face. I begin to laugh, and the next thing I know he's in front of me splashing me. I do the same back and then we swim for awhile. We get out and lay on the grass just as the clouds part to show the sun. The shinning sun on Edward's skin looks like diamonds because of the water that has yet to dry. I gasped at the beauty of it. Edward and I laid there until we were dry. Then we got up and headed back to the Volvo. The entire way there we were both quiet, both in our own thoughts. Edward dropped me off at home and my dad and cousin still weren't there. "Are you going to be okay alone?" Edward asked. "Yea, I should be. Thanks for today. It helped a lot." I responded. "No problem, anytime you need me, just call." he said with a small smile. "I will. I'll see you later." I said. And with that he went back to his Volvo and drove away. I walked into the darkness of my house and went straight upstairs to my room. I decided to take a steaming hot shower. Once I got out I felt better, I couldn't help but to think about Edward. I climbed out on the roof and leaned against my window pane and just thought about today. It was perfect, although I hate surprises. Today was something that I needed. To just get away from reality and know there's always a place to escape to, and not just in a book. When I was with Edward at the lake today, I just forgot about everything, forgot my problems and my worries. They seemed to disappear like I was in a different dimension. A place where they didn't exist. When I'm with Edward it's like he's just a huge mystery for me to break down to pieces and solve. One that will take up all of my time, and my energy. He's like a mystery novel, you see the cover and you think one thing, but slowly as you read deeper and deeper into it you learn little bits of information. Small pieces to the big puzzle. And slowly you unravel the mystery. That's what it's like with Edward. I think I have him figured out, then I learn something new. And every detail is an important piece of information that I absolutely have to know. So I forget everything but we are talking about, or what we are doing. The sound of car doors closing below brought me back to reality again. Charlie and Nadia had finally returned home. After they had came into the house, I quickly climbed through my window and closed it. Then I opened up my laptop and began to IM Alice who, lucky for me, was online. CumsyBells: Hey alice Shop-A-holic: Hi bella, how was your day? ClumsyBells: It was good. How was yours? Shop-A-holic: good, why was your day good, what did you do? Alice is being pushy… what could cause this? I thought to myself ClumsyBells: Well Edward took me to this beautiful place, he kind of saved me from being with Charlie and my cousin Nadia. I was feeling like a third wheel and he just showed up and took me to this place. Shop-A-holic: Awww that's so sweet of him, where did he take you? ClumsyBells: Well it's our secret place, so I don't really wanna say… Shop-A-holic: Awwwwww, that's so cuteeeee. Are you guys like together now? ClumsyBells: Not really. We've only actually gone out once Ally Shop-A-holic: SO! Me and Jazzy didn't really date before he asked me to be his girl. We just hung out a lot ClumsyBells: Yea, well, Edward and I aren't you and Jasper. Were us, and I don't even know if we'll get together. Right now he's just a really good friend who's there for me when I need him. I don't even know if we mean anything more to him so, yea… it's complicated. Shop-A-holic: UGH YOU TWO ARE UNBELIEVABLE… HE SAID THE SAME EXACT THING! ClumsyBells: Really? Hmm that's weird, why would he say that. Shop-A-holic: Oh Bella, I have so much to teach you…. Tsk tsk, this is going to take awhile… Right before I can respond, my conversation with alice gets interrupted. Charlie has finally came up to my room. I think he may have forgotten about me. "Hey Bells, how way your day?" Charlie asks. "It was fine dad." I reply. "Look, sorry, I completely forgot Nadia was supposed to come out." he states apologetically. 'Well I just got here' I think to myself. "It's okay dad." I say instead. "We have the next five years together kiddo, I only see Nadia once a year. You sure your okay?" He asks again. It's like he can read my mind. Hmm that would be creepy. "Yea I promise, I'm okay." I state truthfully. "Okay. Night Bells, love you." he says as he begins to walk away. "Love you too dad." I say just before he shut's the door again. Then I go back to IM-ing alice about my day and listening to her rant on about how I don't know anything when it comes to guys. But why would I with the whole trust issues and all. After about a half hour I tell alice I'm going to bed. So I get off of my laptop and go take a shower. Does Edward like me? Does alice know something I don't? Am I weird for not knowing how to act around a guy I like? I cant help but thing these things as I go over my conversation with alice in my head again. I have never had the chance to get to know a guy well enough to even begin to like him, so I've always just kept to myself. Things are so different know. Like Charlie said, I have the next five years here. The next five years to figure it all out. By this time I'm out of the shower and climbing into bed. I fall asleep very quickly, not realizing how truly tired I am. And with that I simply dream about Edward… again.
Disclaimer: I do not own anything twilight related. Stephanie Meyers does. I do own Nadia. I also own my laptop. So on with the story.
I know, A/N's at the bottom bother me too, so I am very sorry, but this is important. The lake DOES NOT take the meadows place. That will be in the story, just not yet. Okay now that that's out of the way... Review, and i will update sooner.
