A/N: Sorry I haven't updated in a while, but now that I have a week off school, I will hopefully update a lot more!

Enjoy! :D

Bella:

I sat, staring at my phone, wondering whether or not to text Edward. Gah! I can't decide! I'm too indecisive!

Hey, maybe we could meet up tonight seeing as we couldn't yesterday. Is it sad that I miss you already? :D - B

I sent that, and instantly regretted it. Why? Why did I tell him I missed him? He is probably going to think I'm crazy, and never tal- My phone buzzed with a new message, breaking my crazy ramblings.

I would love to, Bella. I miss you too :P – E

Oh my god! He misses me too! Ah, I'm so happy!

Ok, how about at the coffee shop at 4:30? – B

I pressed send, and lay in bed, waiting for his reply. I knew I needed to start getting ready for school, otherwise I would be late, but right now, Edward was more important.

Sounds great, I can't wait! :D – E

I did a mini happy dance, and began getting ready. Because of my excitement, I fell over several times, but I didn't care. Edward was the same as me, he missed me, and he wanted to see me.

When I got to school, I noticed that Jessica wasn't there, so I hoped things had gone ok when she told her parents about her pregnancy. I was a little late, so I quickly began walking to my first lesson. Again, I couldn't focus on anything, as I was thinking about Edward. I wished for the day to be quick, and end so I could see Edward again.

I barely spoke to anyone that day, not paying attention to anyone's conversations. At lunch, I just sat down, eating, and listening to everyone. By now, everyone had realised that the rumours about Jessica were true. Mike was looking completely shocked, in deep thought.

Happily, the last two lessons passed quickly, and I only managed to fall over twice in P.E. Usually, I fall about at least six or seven times. I practically ran from P.E out to my truck, and quickly drove back to my apartment. I got changed into what I thought would be acceptable. Slightly dressed up, but not too over-done for just getting coffee.

When I got to the coffee shop, I looked around to see if Edward was already there. I spotted him at one of the tables, and had to control myself so I didn't run over and hug him.

"Hey, you're looking beautiful today, Bella." Edward said, standing up and pulling out a chair for me. I felt my face heating up at his compliment.

"You too. Well, I mean, you look beautiful every day, but…today you look really beautiful." I said, mentally slapping myself. I'm surprised he hasn't run away yet. Instead, he just chuckled at me.

"Thanks, do you want to order some coffee now?" Edward said, looking like he was still trying to hold in laughter.

"Yes, ok." I said, smiling at him.

"What would you like? It's on me." Edward said.

"A hot chocolate would be nice, but, don't worry, I can pay." I said, not willing to make him pay for me.

"No, I insist." He said, before jogging over to the line before I could stop him. When he was in the line, I glared at him, and he just stuck his tongue out at me. So childish, but cute at the same time.

Not long after, Edward came back with hot chocolate, coffee, and two cakes.

"Here, I thought you might be hungry." Edward said, pushing the one cake towards me. I will admit; it looked delicious.

"Thanks, but you shouldn't have." I said, eyeing up the cake.

"You're welcome, and you know, you can eat it!" Edward said, laughing at me. I took a bite of the cake, and it was so delicious.

"So, how are things going then?" Edward asked me.

"Alright, actually. I think it's better that I'm living in a different place, and everyone at school is treating me like usual. I only get the occasional sympathetic look." I said, much happier than I had been. I'm pretty sure Edward has a lot to do with that.

"That's really good; you've made such an improvement." Edward said, smiling at me.

"It's all down to you!" I blurted out, immediately embarrassed. I looked down, and played with the spoon in my cup.

"Bella, look at me." Edward said, but I kept my eyes down. He gently lifted up my chin, forcing me to look at him.

"I'm glad I've helped you so much. In a way, you've helped me too." Edward said to me.

"How?" I asked, confused by him.

"You have helped me to see there is more to life than just being clever and having lots of money. Before I met you, I was pretty boring. But, now, you have made me happier." Edward said, smiling at me. I smiled back, happy I have helped Edward.

"Why weren't you happy before?" I asked him.

"I wouldn't say I was happy, but I wouldn't say I was sad, either. But now I've met you, I feel like my life is complete." Edward said, and I felt my eyes water with tears. But, tears of happiness.

"I feel the same, Edward! I was in a horrible place, and not only did you help me as a counsellor, you were, just, there for me, as a friend." I said; feeling tears fall down my cheek.

"Why are you crying?" Edward asked, looking concerned.

"Happy tears!" I said, smiling widely. Edward just laughed at me.

"You are quite weird, aren't you?" He said, while still laughing.

"Hey!" I replied, feigning shock and anger.

"Bella, there was something I wanted to ask you." Edward said, becoming serious again, and sounding slightly nervous.

"Ask away!" I said, trying to give him a reassuring smile.

"Do you…Would you…sometime…liketogoonadatewithme? I mean, I know there is a bit of an age difference, but, it's not like I'm 50. But, I mean, I would understand if you didn't want to. So, yeah." Edward mumbled, quite quickly, actually. I found myself laughing at Edward. He was usually so confident; it was quite funny to see him so nervous. "Is laughing a bad sign?" Edward asked, again sounding nervous.

"No, it's just, well, you're never nervous. It was kind of funny to see you being nervous. I would love to go on a date with you. The age gap doesn't matter, but, how old are you?" I asked, and Edward instantly looked relieved.

"Great! I'm 25, and you're 18, so there is a 7 year gap." Edward said, smiling at me.

"That's barely an age gap! My grandmother and grandfather had like, a ten year age gap!" I said.

"Ok, are you free tomorrow then?" Edward asked me.

"Yeah!" I practically shouted at him.

"Ok, I will pick you up from your apartment at 12 then." Edward said, smiling still.

We spent another couple of hours in the coffee shop, and only left because it was closing. Edward told me lots about his family, and how his parents had also died, but he was much younger. This meant that he had spent a lot of his childhood in a children's home.

We went back to my apartment. We talked a lot more, and never once did I get bored. I don't think I could ever get bored in Edward's company.

After a while, Edward had to go home, seeing as it was getting late. As soon as he left, I did a mini happy dance. I was so happy that Edward asked me out on a date! He was so perfect, and so amazing, and could have any girl he wants, but he chose me! Life is good.

"OOWWWWWW!" I shouted out, to no one in particular. I think I got a bit too excited, which has resulted in me lying face down on the floor.

"We meet again." I said to the floor. Right then, I was thankful Edward had never seen me fall over. Yeah, he has seen trip, but never fall over. I slowly got up, and cautiously walked to my bedroom. I wanted to get a good night's rest before my date with Edward tomorrow.

BEEP! BEEP! BEEP! BEEP!

Damn! I forgot to turn off my alarm clock. I hit it to silence it, and looked at the time. Damn, only 7:00 a.m. Why didn't I turn it off?

Now that I'm up, there is no way I can get back to sleep. Maybe I should do some homework? Yeah, that's a good way to pass the time. After an hour, I got bored, so I decided to do some baking. Maybe I could give it to Edward, like a gift?

I don't have a clue where the recipe book is, I still haven't unpacked everything. I really should finish sometime; it's not as if there is a lot to unpack. Just as I was starting to get the ingredients out, my phone started to ring. Who would be calling me at this time in the morning?

"Hey, Bells." Jacob, my old friend, said. I had known him since we were babies, seeing as our dads were best friends.

"Hey, Jake." I said, happy to be speaking to him. We haven't spoken in a while, since we go to different schools.

"Are you busy today? I thought maybe we could hang out?" Jacob asked me.

"Sorry, I am busy today, but I'm free tomorrow?" I offered, feeling bad for turning him down.

"Yeah, that sounds great. Wanna meet me at the beach?"

"That would be cool." I said; smiling at all the happy memories I have had with Jacob and his family.

"Ok. So, what's more important for you to do today than me?" Jacob asked, teasing me.

"Just meeting a friend." I said, because I knew if I told him I had a date he would go into over protective mode.

"Friend…would this friend be male or female?" Jacob asked, and I knew he wasn't going to drop the topic.

"A male friend…" I said, emphasizing friend. Even though, I hoped him to be more than a friend after today.

"Ooohh…would this perhaps be a date then?" Jacob asked, sounding slightly jealous.

"Fine, fine. I will admit it. Yes, I have a date. Today. With a man." I said, hoping he would leave it at that. How foolish was I?

"How come you weren't going to tell me about this date? I thought we were friends." Jacob said, feigning hurt.

"Oh, shut up, you! I wasn't going to tell you, because you would go all over protective on me! I can't handle that!" I said, laughing as I did.

"Fine, just, have fun, and be careful." Jacob said, in a warning tone that made me laugh.

"Yeah; whatever. Bye, Jake!" I said, ending this awkward conversation.

"Bye Bells!" Jake said, and I hung up.

I went back to making cupcakes, which kept me preoccupied for a while. However, it began to get closer to mine and Edward's date, and I started panicking. What should I wear? Were we going somewhere posh? Do I actually have anything nice to wear? Ahhhhhhh!

A/N: I hope you liked it! The next chapter will be their date, which I should update tomorrow or the day after!

Any idea's what their date should be? If you have any idea, tell me in a review! :D
