Chapter Four
"I Give You Myself"
Previously…
"I have to get home... but I will see you again tomorrow afternoon not morning." He smiled and I nodded. I watched as he mounted his horse and with a wave galloped into the tree's. I watched him go and knew in my heart I wanted him forever, and fell in love with him the moment he told me he wanted to take care of me and never have me work again. It was a sweet gesture though I would never allow it. It showed he truly cared, maybe even loved me.
Two Years later
Rose's POV
I woke happily, today was my sixteenth birthday and Edward had promised me a wonderful gift. I jumped from my bed, pulling on my gray skirt with the off white blouse and pulled on a new corset, lacing it tight as a young woman should before pulling back some of my hair with a headband and skipping down stairs.
"Oh she is going to be so happy when she finds out that all these years she was really…" Angela gushed before Bella hushed her.
"Shhh, we don't want her over hearing!" Bella snapped.
"Look we are going to have to use them! We can't get all this done by ourselves!" Bella groaned.
"No we are not taking any chances!" Alice chided before I stepped into the room.
"What are you all fussing about now?" I grinned.
"Nothing, now we need you to go pick berries!" Angela smiled.
"Yes, lots of berries!" Alice grinned. I didn't want to point out that yesterday I had picked berries, I wanted out of the house as much as they wanted me out. I skipped happily out picking berries as I made my way to our usual meeting place, I can't believe that two years had passed. Two wonderful years filled with laughter and love. Sure we fought, sometimes days went by that neither could see the other. We made it though and that is what is most important. He was there waiting for me, my best friend and my true love. I placed my basket down before running to his arms and placing my lips firmly to his as he spun us around.
"Happy birthday my love." He smiled and kissed my forehead.
"Thank you." I whispered and looked at his horse; sure enough there was two blankets and a basket for lunch. He placed me down and pulled a blanket down and opened the basket with bread, cheese and dried meat. Simple but delicious! We talked as we ate, ignoring the subject we had been battling with the past couple of weeks. We had finally decided that my sixteenth birthday was the day. He cleared away the meal when I finished and grabbed the second blanket.
"We are really doing this." I smiled.
"You can still say no. I don't want us to do this if you don't want to. After all we aren't married." He frowned.
"Yet, we aren't married yet but as soon as you break off your arranged marriage you will be all mine." I grinned happily.
"That my present for you." I told my father I wasn't letting him make the decisions for my life. I told him I was marrying you." He smiled happily and he kneeled to one knee pulling out a large cut diamond ring. I smiled and cried and laughed all at the same time. I was getting married! "Will you marry me?" He asked.
"Yes!" I grinned and he stood, pushing the ring into my finger.
"We both have a lot of secrets don't we?" He asked, I nodded. We had agreed long ago that for now we would enjoy the world with just us in it, that when the time came we would tell each other the secrets we kept. Like where he lives, where I live, who we live with. It never mattered until recently. "I think we need to tell them to each other, starting with me meeting you're three guardians." He frowned. "Also I need to tell you exactly who my family is." I placed my lips to him, silencing him.
"We will do that all tonight, come to the cottage in the glen. You can meet them, tell me about your family and then we will get married. As of right now, we have some business to attend to." He grinned at me and grabbed the blankets before laying them out on the ground. I turned my back as he unlaced my corset, pulled down my skirt and pulled the blouse over my head. He laid me down as he undressed himself, kicking his boots off, pulling down his breeches and pulling his shirt over his head. This had been building for two years. Two years of him fiddling beneath my skirts, my hand down his breeches, this was what all of that had led up to. Us completely naked and vulnerable to each other. He grabbed the second blanket, placing it next to us before laying next to me. His hand on the flat of my stomach, his hand running slowly up and down my stomach.
"Edward please." I whispered as his fingers found my opening and plunged in. I groaned slightly, grinding myself onto his fingers, he added another finger, stretching me before he leaned over me, kissing my stomach down until he hit my treasure trove. He ran his tongue over it and I hummed happily. He plunged his tongue in. I groaned and wiggled my hips, needing so much more than he had ever given to me before.
"Edward!" I moaned and he appeared above me, pushing my legs farther apart. I could feel him, hard and erect at my opening.
"Are you sure?" He asked again.
"Please Edward, please I want this." I begged, smiled broadly. He loved when I begged, I didn't do it often. I waited for the pain as he pushed into me. It hit like a ton of bricks. I gasped loudly and dug my nails into his back, biting his shoulder hard. He groaned and shoved fully into me. He was still until I let go with my teeth, kissing where I bit him before he pulled out and pushed back in. Pain again, but suddenly it felt so good.
"Oh Edward please more!" I whispered as he pushed harder into me, faster. The pain was long gone as I felt this coil in the bottom of my stomach tighten. He was making me feel pleasure like never before.
"Oh Rose, I'm almost there." He groaned into my neck before my back arched and I came, followed by him second later.
"That was like nothing I have ever felt before." I groaned as he pulled the second blanket over us and pulled me close to his chest.
"That was incredible Rosie. To imagine you are all mine, and we get to do that all the time!" He smiled happily.
We laid there reminiscing on the two years that had flown by, he helped me dress, and he had cloths in the basket along with water and food. He washed the virgin blood from me, so lightly and lovingly. I kissed him as we parted. Knowing it was only for a few hours, he was going to be at the cottage tonight. I smiled to myself as I walked home. I hurt, I was sore; walking was hard for the first few minutes. I walked into the cottage and smiled when Alice, Angela and Bella jumped from behind the door and yelled surprise. A beautiful cake stood tall, sixteen candles on top and a beautiful dress on the chair.
"Oh it's wonderful! This whole day has been wonderful. Oh my dears I have meet someone." I sang happily to them.
"What? I stranger?" Alice asked.
"No, I have seen him over the past two years but I know its love." I grin.
"Oh my dear this cannot be, this is terrible." Alice muttered.
"Why is this terrible, I am sixteen after all." I ask.
"Oh dear it's not that, you are betrothed." Alice frowned.
"Betrothed?" I asked in horror.
"Yes, to a Prince." Angela sang happily.
"How could I be with I Prince I would have to be a…"
"Princess?" Bella asked, you are King Carlisle's daughter. Hidden away to be kept safe from an evil prophecy…" I cut her off.
"Yes I know that story but I am not Aurora! I am Rose, Rosalie!" I yell.
"My dear, it is far better for you to forget this boy, for by tomorrow you will be safe from the spell and marrying the Prince." Alice said gently.
"Forget him? He is my everything!" I yell and run upstairs, flinging myself into the bed. How will I explain to my betrothed that I believed myself a peasant girl, who was going to marry a handsome peasant boy… that I had given him myself I believed in that so. I rook the ring on my finger and turned it so it looked like a simple golden band. I cried and cried until Alice came upstairs to make me dress to go meet this father of mine.
