Chapter 3:
Stars
" So, what plans do you have for us tonight, Mr. Cullen?" I was sitting on the bed in his room watching him as he shoved things into a backpack. " You'll see soon enough, love , have patience." He crawled across the king sized bed to me curled up in the middle. Edward cupped my face in his hands and pressed his cold marble lips to mine. I let my tongue brush against the smoothness of his lips taking in a deep intake of his sweet breath letting my head fill with it's essence. Edward slid his cool hand up under my warm shirt sending goose bump everywhere his skin touched mine. I could feel the longing between us. I pulled away taking a breath kissing his earlobe. I felt him tremble under me " Bella, love really, are you trying to make me drop you?" he whispered with a laugh in his breath. I looked around to see the dark forest flying past us.
I knew right away that we were heading to our meadow, our own little hide away from the rest of the world. I closed my eyes and snuggled my face in the crook of his neck letting his scent immerse me. Before I could get to swept away, I heard my favorite sound in the world tickle my ear " I love you " he spoke with his velvet voice. Edward placed my feet on the ground hugging me tightly to his chest with his hand in my hair. " I know." I looked up kissing him on the mouth letting my lips linger there for a moment. I pulled away looking at his sculpted face that was glowing with the blue light of the moon. His skin, his everything was always so breath taking, Will he ever stop having that effect on me? No. I answered myself.
Edward must have read the look playing on my face, he smiled his crooked smile pointing up to the sky. My eyes followed his outstretched long white finger bringing my gaze up to the full moon over head. The sky was unusually crystal clear for Forks. My only reasoning was that the storm must have taken all the clouds away with it. I was in aww. The forest was playing it's magical music of crickets and frogs singing to the low sound of the bubbling stream near by.
Edwards hand slid down my arm taking my hand in his. I felt the tip of his nose caressing the inside of my wrist taken me in. He kissed my wrist then my palm slowly turning my hand over to kiss my ring. I was mesmerized by the moon. I couldn't take my eyes off it. I felt like I was under some kind of spell. Edwards alluring voice broke the hold of the moon, but I could still feel the power of it.
" So beautiful my angel. "
I smiled and looked into those gold smoldering eyes " So are you."
His smile widened " Bella turn around."
I slowly turned to finally look on to the small open field to see the most amazing sight in nature. The entire meadow was completely filled with little lights of lightning bugs flying everywhere casting a soft glow on the long grass and wild flowers. I have never seen this many in one place before, the lack of rain must have brought them out.
" Edward it's...it's " I was speechless, but he understood what I was trying to say even though his eyes never left my face.
" That's not the only reason why I brought you here tonight.", his voice was a smoky purr,
" There is also a meteor shower tonight. Alice said that it should be starting any moment now."
I couldn't believe there was more. It was like we were in an enchanted forest. This night couldn't be more magical or could it?
Edward guided me forward telling me where to step so I wouldn't fall. We stopped in the middle of the field and Edward let go of my hand moving fast laying out blankets. I looked down and noticed that he had packed a camera.
" Edward, why do you have your camera?" I asked curiosity filling my thoughts as I begun to wonder what we would need it for.
" Silly... Bella, what else is there to do with a camera other than to take pictures." He chuckled at my thoughtlessness rolling his eyes.
" I know what a camera is, but what exactly are you going to take pictures of in a dark meadow in the woods?"
He looked at me from under his long lashes with a flicker of annoyance on his face " OF US."
I felt my blood rush to my cheeks at my stupidness. Edward laughed light heartedly shacking his head " Come here, it's about time for it to start."
I took a deep breath and went to rest against his awaiting chest. His iron arms locked around me and everything else melted away. I was in heaven, if there is a heaven, I was sure that this is what it must look like. I was blessed to be here in the arms of an angel, who I loved with every fiber of my being and I knew that he felt the same. I looked up into the starry sky searching for anything moving across it, but I didn't see anything. So I took a chance and sat forward grabbing the camera and took a pictures of the meadow. I didn't care if it didn't come out or not, I just wanted to remember this night. I felt Edwards cheek smile against mine.
" Don't move, keep smiling." I felt him stiffen like a statue behind me. I turned the camera on us and took a picture. I examined it to make sure I didn't cut anyones heads off and I was pleased to see I didn't, I smiled to myself. Edward kissed my cheek. I took one more picture of the stars and put the camera away. I didn't want to miss anything.
" There's one." Edward pointed up into the sky, but I didn't see anything " Edward, I can't see that far away remember."
Me and my lack of supernatural ability's and all. I was more than happy that I wouldn't feel so insignificant soon enough.
" It's getting closer. You should see it now!" and sure enough there it was striking across the sky.
" Make a wish" Edward whispered into my ear. I closed my eyes and my wish hit my mind instantly.
I opened my eyes to find Edwards face in front of mine. He had spun me around on his lap so I was facing him. His eyes were filled with uncertainty and I didn't like it.
" What's wrong?"
" Nothings wrong, really. I'm just wondering what you wished for." his voice was so soft that I almost didn't hear him.
"If I tell you then it wont come true." I took his face in my hands looking deep into those topaz eyes.
"What else are you wondering about?"
" Hey, stop reading my mind." there was a laugh playing under his words as a small grin spreed across his face.
" Well.." I said indicating for him to go on. He looked away to the sky " I just wanted to try a little something to see what would happen, but I don't know if I can handle it." Edward turned his burning gaze back on mine.
" Handle what?" I could feel the heat rise up into my cheeks from the lustful glem in his piercing eyes.
" Does this have anything to do with what Alice told me earlier?" I didn't need an answer. His face said it all. I opened my mouth to protest, but his lips were already crushed on mine moving with little caution. All I got out between breaths was ' wait... after married' , but I couldn't think properly. My body was over come with ponding adrenaline. My heart rate must be off the charts. His kiss was so passionate, I was sure I was going to faint. Edward laid me down on my back supporting his upper body weight with one arm as his other hand was holding my face while still kissing me.
He let go of my face sliding his free hand down to caress my chest in his cold hand. My heart stuttered. I tried to fight off the moan of pleasure from escaping my lip, but failed. I felt Edwards lips smile against mine as he moved his hand down lifting my shirt just high enough to expose my stomach. He broke free from my lips and lowered his head, kissing every so lightly along the bare skin while keeping my hips clasped in one hand. I didn't fight the sounds now flowing out of my lips. My body was aching with the feverish longing. His cold lips found their way back to my but not before his cool fingers replaced his kisses. I shuddered when I felt his fingers lightly gild along the top of my jeans before he moved them down along the burning fabric covering the place I was burning from the most. Edward pulled away breathing his tantalizing breath in my face with a huge smile stretched across his face at my response to his unrestrained touch. My body was numb has more gasp of pleasure fled my mouth.
Edwards breathing was becoming heavier with every nose that I made. My sweaty hands were sliding along under his shirt gripping at his marble skin. He buried his head into my hair breathing in my intensified scent lowering his body just enough against mine as he did so that he hadn't realized that he pressed his hand even more into the fabric. I couldn't help it my body had a life of it's own as I wrapped my leg around him pulling his hips into mine, crushing his hand between them. I felt Edwards body tense under my hands as he let out a small groan of pleasure in my ear. He brought his fiery gaze to mine and kissed me hard then carefully began moving his hips into the back of his hand. My heart was ready to burst, I couldn't believe that this was happening, I must be dreaming.
He pulled away taking a breath, his eyes were reluctant and cautious, but his purring moans told me his body thought other wise. I knew that look, but he didn't stop himself just yet. My breath started catching in my chest, I was beginning to feel some quacks of ecstasy slowly roll through my body. Our eyes were locked together in our own little world. Edward bit his lip silently fighting with himself. He slowly removed his hand from between us, gliding it along the length of my leg grasping the back of my knee and hiking my hip up more around his own pressing himself gently against mine a few more times
" Soon enough, my love " I knew from his tone that he had reached his limit. I clung to him and kissed him with all my might. I felt my body start to shiver, my muscles started to tighten. He slightly slowed his pass just enough to stifle the build up of feeling before he gripped my hips with both hands pushing himself one last time against me then pulled away far enough making the space between us again. My head was becoming more and more dizzier as the minutes flew by.
We were both breathing hard. The sudden stop of movement made my body ache. I didn't want him to pull away even if it was only mere seconds. I didn't have time to pout before his hand was back in place keeping up with the movement. Edward had positioned himself so his lower body was lying along side mine, with his torso still hovering inches above my own. He kept one of his legs intertwined with mine as he continued to kiss along my collarbone leading back up to my jaw line. His face was set in a soft loving smile of contentment as he brushed my hair away staring deep into my eyes.
" Bella look up" his voice was so sultry as he spoke with more even breaths than before. I reluctantly pulled my eyes from him looking up. I couldn't believe my eyes. All the fireflies were flying in circles above us caught in some kind of magical orbit. The sight proved to me that fairy tails could be real. I didn't have time to fully ponder this fact when I felt a surge of energy take hold of me. My breath stopped then restarted in gasps as the unrestrained euphoria rocked through my body. Edward had rested his head on my chest listening to my erratic heart beat trying to rip from my chest. He lifted his head up just enough to watch my face as I dug my nails into his shoulders closing my eyes tightly as my body finally gave in.
I didn't open them right away, but I could still feel his eyes on me. Edward took my head in his hands giving me butterflied kisses on my eye lids. He pressed his lips to my forehead whispering ' I love you' over and over again before brushing his lips on mine. I couldn't help but smile, my body tingled all over. I wanted the moment to last has long as possible.
" Are you going to be alright? I didn't hurt you at all did I?" Edward voice was a playful tease. I opened my eyes to my favorite
crooked smile. " If that's what you take has hurting me then please feel free to keep doing so" I pulled him to me kissing him sweetly in small kisses on the lips as we both giggled in between them.
" You know that's really not funny because I could really hurt you or even worse kill you on our wedding night if I'm not careful." He voice was light, but his eyes were serious.
" But did we not prove that you could do certain things", I grabbed his hips jerking them closer against the side of my leg,
" without hurting me tonight." I raised an eyebrow at him daring him to disagree.
" Well that's different" Edwards voice sounded a bit defeated, but strong to the point he was making.
I tilted my head at him with a silent 'how' expression written on my face.
He took a deep breath just as a slight breeze rippled through the meadows grass. Edwards body froze a deep growl erupted from his chest. In a flash he was on his feet crouching protectively in front of me. His whole body was shacking with anger.
" Edward" I whispered as the fear washed over me.
" SHHH" he quietly hissed. I sat there unable to move with fear looking into the dark woods that Edward was facing.
His words came out in a snarl " HOW DARE YOU SPY ON US MUTT!!!" he roared into the darkness then turned his head slightly, spiting venom on the ground while his eyes were locked on the woods.
'Mutt?' , I gasped in shock putting my hand to my mouth, Jacob was watching us. I thought to myself.
" Not him" Edward whispered answering my gasp.
But it didn't matter either way if it was Jacob here or not. He would see it whether he wanted to or not, in who ever it was from the pack that is hiding in the forest edge now.
" Yes, you should feel lucky that she is here, but only because it stops me from killing. Not because of the very cruel thing that you just put him through".
I wasn't sure if it was my imagination or not, but I swear I heard a wolf howl far off in the wind. I could feel the unwilling tears choking to get out.
" spy on us again and I wont refrain from killing you pup. You have my warning now go before I change my mind!" Edward stayed crouched for a few minutes longer before he relaxed his stance spinning around facing me placing his hands on my shoulders. The anger faded in his eyes and was replaced with concern.
" Bella, are you okay?"
" Edward, of course I'm alright. I didn't move. What's going on?" I demanded my words came out shaky. I didn't know how to take this. He closed his eyes pinching the bridge of his nose trying to fully calm himself before he answered.
" It was the dog Paul. He saw everything" Edwards face tightened clenching his jaw. I could see the agony in his eyes mixed with hatred. When he said 'HE' I knew he meant Jacob. My mind flooded with guilt at the fact that I had managed to hurt him yet again. Even if I wasn't the one directly doing the hurting. I promised myself that I would never cry for Jacob Black again, but one small traitor tear fell down my cheek before I could pull them back. Edward wiped it away with his thumb then kissed the apple of my cheek.
I felt sorry for Jacob to have someone put him through watching Edward and I. I couldn't grasp why Paul would do that to him.
All I could say was " Why?"
Edward shook his head back and forth with disgust " He's jealous Bella."
" Jealous? Why would he be?" I couldn't comprehend any of it.
" Jacob, he's driving them all mad thinking about you. So much so that it's even causing them to dream about being with you in more ways then one. He's putting them all through hell. He refuses to listen to reason, that it was the right thing to let you go. So when Paul came across our scent and followed it here. He wasn't excepting the scene he came upon, but he couldn't have been more happier. He cleared his mind completely filling it with nothing but the sounds of the surrounding forest so I couldn't hear his thoughts. It's something he has been practicing at since the battle. DAME IT!!! why didn't I be more careful." Edward growled at himself ponding his hand into his forehead making loud banging sounds echo off the trees. "Your scent was so strong that I couldn't smell anything else until the wind blew enough to clear the surrounding air. I'm sorry Bella, what happened tonight wont happen again. I let things go way to far as is."
" Edward, stop please." I pulled his hands away and squeezed them in mine.
The tears that flowed now weren't for Jacob, but for the way Edward was betting himself.
" But why would he do this of all things? Why didn't he just go another way and leave us be?" My voice cracked as I spoke.
Edwards eyes were warming as he looked at me with self pity on his face. " Don't you see, he did it to try to make Jacob realize the truth. To give up on the idea that you would go back to him. To push him to get over you and move on."
" I can't believe that I'm still finding ways to hurt him without even being near him." I spoke voicing my previous thoughts. Why me!
I yelled at myself. " Add that with making the rest of the pack miserable. I am one truly horrible person." I bit my lip looking down at Edwards and I's hands.
Edward leaned his forehead against mine. I could feel his furrowed brow. " Isabella never let me hear you say that again. You are not a horrible person. You can't take blame for other peoples sorrows when they refuse to see whats best. You did nothing but follow your heart. There's nothing wrong with that."
How could I be lucky enough to have this wonderful, loving, caring man in my life. Edward picked my chin up with one finger bringing his lips to mine kissing me softly. I sighed with a small smile " Take us home ". He nodded giving me a grin while he helped me up. I bent down picking up the camera as Edward started stuffing the blankets back into the backpack. I couldn't help snapping a picture when he bent down in front of me. I couldn't help but giggle as he whipped around startled by the flash. I snapped another picture of his face which was in the most adorable expression with his mouth half open with a laugh playing on his lips with his eyebrows raised. " What? " I said with fake innocents. My cheeks filling with the give away of my shyness as I gave him a sly smirk.
" You think your so funny don't you?" Edward chuckled picking me up in his arms. I wrapped my arms around his neck and kissed him on his jaw " Yes, I do. What can I say I couldn't help myself."
Edward leaned his head back laughing his musical laugh into the night as we headed back to the mansion.
I rested my head against his chest listening to his laughs rumble through his body. It amazes me that he can whip away all my worries with the littlest things.
As we made are way back to the house I was replaying what we said in my head when suddenly I was hit with a slight panicking thought. I looked up at Edward who met my gaze with a curious look in eyes at the shocked look on my face.
" What is it love?"
" When you said 'wont happen again' you didn't mean..." He cut me off before I could even finish.
" Of course not, I promised you that we will try. Oh god we will try. Tonight was a good thing believe me. I showed myself that maybe I don't have to be afraid so much that I might lose control. The only reason I pulled away was because I wanted more than what is allowed and I'm not talking about your blood." Edward raised an eye brow with a sly smile on his lips.
" The only thing I am afraid of is braking you.. If I don't keep up some restraint when I'm touching you, you know what could happen."
" So then you'll just have to turn me right then and there wont you. And besides if we try and you feel like you can't take it anymore then we'll stop. At least we tried once before I'm changed and then after just think you can have me whatever way you want me." My face was ablaze at the boldness of my words. Somewhere along the line I found a new confidence with telling my desires to him. Maybe it was the fact that we were going to be husband and wife that changed my modesty.
Edward gave me his crooked smile with the anticipation a lite in his eyes at my words. " Were going to have to reinforce the bed." he mused.
We were both still laughing when we broke through the trees on to the front yard. Edward stopped half way to the house placing me on my feet and pulled me in for some kisses. Edwards hand flashed up in the air catching something. I stopped bewildered by what he did braking the kiss looking at him puzzled.
Edward chuckled " I'm sorry Alice"
" How could you forget your phone!" Alice yelled at Edward making me jump at her sudden appearance even though I should be used to it by now.
" I've been worried sick. All I saw was you make it to the meadow then your futures went blank. I tried calling you but your phone rang from your bed instead. I was just going to go check on you when you reappeared getting reading to leave the meadow.!" she scowled at him then her face brightened when she looked at me.
" good one taking that picture!" she winked.
The rough splashed across my face for what felt like the millionth time tonight. I yawned as a wave of sleep swept through me.
" Alice how long have we've been gone anyways?"
" oh about an hour now."
" That's it, geeze I thought it was longer than that" I yawned again has we headed into the house.
" Did you do it!!" Emmett's booming voice sounded from the top of the stairs with a hopeful smile.
" Emmett thats very rude of you!" Rosalie snapped from the entrance of the living room glaring at her husband.
Edward and I stood there paralyzed with the sudden on set of question about are sex life. Edward squeezed my hand and looked at Alice for support. But Jaspers voice answered from behind us instead.
" No they have not though I am feeling..."
Edwards soft growl made him stop mid-sentence heeding the warning to stop.
" If you would all please stop discussing what has or hasn't happened intimately between Bella and I. I would like to get her to bed."
" I knew it!" Emmett shouted.
Edward flew at him punching him in the arm almost knocking them both over. " Shut up!! that's not what I meant. It's time for Bella to go to sleep."
" Must your mind always be in the gutter Emmett?" Rosalie exclaimed clearly annoyed.
" Always" he grinned back.
Edward walked back to me grabbing my hand leading me up the stairs bumping shoulders with Emmett as he passed him.
We had only made it half way up the stairs before I could hear the whispers emitting from the entrance hall. Edward growled something like "immature morons" he got frustrated at our slow pass picking me up and running me up the stairs. When we entered the room Edward put me down then slammed the door shut so hard that it made a crack in the wall.
Edward growled- a deep menacing sound. " Great! Just Great!! Now I'll have to hear it from Esme about my temper again and braking things!" he laughed in a hollow laugh. I stood there frozen by his outburst. I wasn't sure if it was okay to speak or not. Edward slid down the wall sitting on the floor with his face in his hands. I walked over to him slowly unsure on how he was going to react.
" Edward" I whispered tentatively crouching down beside him.
He didn't look up but spoke from his hands. " Please just make it stop." his voice was pleading I didn't know what he was talking about. " Whaa" Edwards eyes flicked up at mine his eyes were more yellow then gold. I didn't mean for the gasp to come out of my mouth but it did. " the voice's there so loud screaming in my head all at once I can't handle it when they are all talking about us especially the subject." I understood then and reached for the radio remote and turned the music on.
" Louder"
I raised the volume until he nodded for me to stop. It was so loud I thought my eardrums were gonna pop. I winced at the high pitch nose emitting from the speaker. The hole room felt like it was shacking. Edward had closed his eyes when I had picked up the remote pinching his nose between his fingers and couldn't see my reaction. I couldn't take it anymore I cupped my hands around my ears in an attempt to block out some of the sound. Edward opened his eyes feeling my movement beside him. " Sorry" he yelled over the music reaching for the remote on the floor in front of us and turned down the music to a tone more suitable for human ears.
" It's okay" I said rubbing my ears.
Edward leaned over and kissed me on the temple stroking my hair back behind my ear.
" They make me so infuriated sometimes with the way they talk about us or well think about us. It's unbearable sometimes. Blasting music is the only thing that seems to tune them out enough so I can't hear them clearly. Some of the things I would never let you hear. Alice of course is the only sane one, but her yelling at them doesn't help much. I don't get why they are making such a big deal about it anyway."
I shrugged " One could only guess. I think that maybe it's because I'm human that there all so curious on how it's all going to play out. You can't blame them. Wouldn't you yourself, if you were them, do the same.?" He didn't answer but the deep intake of breath told me that I was right. He just didn't want to admit it. Seeing as he's the smartie pant who's always right.
" I need a shower" Edward sighed into my ear kissing my earlobe sending chills down my spine. I bit the bottom lip of the smile that spreed across my roughed cheeks. My brow creased with confusion as I looked into his eyes. They were calm now, but they were still restless. In on swift movement I was in his arms with his lips to mine. He sat me on the bed then pulled away with his crooked smile just as my head was starting to spin. " I maybe awhile. I have some stiff muscles that need to be worked out."
He kissed me once more then turned to the bathroom shutting the door behind him. I throw myself back on the bed listening as the water turned on. I closed my eyes trying to calm my heart from his kisses. I exhaled slowly opening my eyes and almost screamed when I saw that I was no longer alone on the bed, but the cold hand covered my mouth.
" Shhh Bella, I'm sorry, I didn't mean to frighten you." Jasper whispered softly removing his hand.
" Jasper, what do you think your doing sneaking up on me like that and having the nerve to lay down beside me in the long run." I whispered back not sure why I was whispering.
Jasper chuckled " I...I'm not sure really. I was walking to Alice and my room, but somehow found myself here instead."
I looked at him completely bewildered by his words. " What do you mean by that?" I said feeling the anger fill my cheeks.
" I guess you could say I was lead by subconscious feelings." He reached out his hand and brushed them along my cheek. I recoiled away from his touch. " Jasper what are you doing?" His eyes weren't the same they looked misted over.
" I'm feeling. It's overwhelming." he let out what sounded like a strangled moan. I jumped off the bed and backed away from him pressing my back to the bathroom door. I put my hand behind my back reaching for the nob, but it was locked. Dame it Edward of all times to lock the door! I screamed at him wishing he could hear my thoughts. I jumped Alice swept into the room standing in front of me facing Jasper with her arms crossed. Jasper looked at her and shock his head trying to clear it.
Alice didn't speak she just stared at him seeming to wait for something. I thought I heard a quite groan come from behind the bath room door, but I wasn't sure over the music.
" About time!" Alice said throwing her hands up in the air. About time for what I didn't know. She walked over to Jasper and wrapped her arm around him. He looked up with a sheepish grin, the mist I noticed was gone from his eyes. I suddenly felt like I was falling backwards before I could fathom the movement Edwards arms caught me around the waist.
" I didn't know you were..." he stopped what he was saying when he looked up taking in Jasper and Alice's appearance on his bed.
" I'm sorry Jasper really. I thought that tonight would have helped."
I looked at Edward not knowing what to think. "What do you mean by that" I snapped.
Alice laughed meekly " Bella, think about what I told you in the car today"
Her words echoed out from my mind ' he said the lustful urges are driving him mad'.
My mouth dropped open when I figured out what happens to Jasper when Edward and I are in the same area as him for to long.
" Bella love, this is my fault. I couldn't help myself, I let myself get worked up when I kissed you." For some odd reason I could tell he was leaving something out , But I let it slid only because of the embarrassed look on his face. I don't know why but it made me giggle. My face I was sure was in full blown red and I knew his would be too if it was possible.
" I don't know what happened. I can't explain it. In all my years this has never happened before. It was like I was locked in some kind of trance. I knew what I was doing, but yet I didn't." Jasper's voice sounded far away. " I'm truly sorry Bella please forgive my actions."
" Your forgiven" I answered.
Alice was so quite that I had almost forgotten she was in the room when her sing song voice filled the air. " Luckily I saw it in time before he had a chance to do anything he would later regret."
I shuddered at the thought of what could have happened. Edward nodded in agreement. " I do think that would be best. Will you be going with him?" Alice shock her head no. I knew what her thoughts said without having to hear them.
" We wont be gone long I promise." Jasper said to Alice. Alice scrunched her nose " You'll be fine in.." She closed her eyes and put her finger to her lips looking into the future. She smiled after a few moments and finished her sentence," three days, oh and make sure you pack a spare pair of shoe's Emmett's gonna hide the first pair."
Edward cleared his throat " Now that thats out of the way, will you two please get out of our room so I can get dressed and get this one to bed." He tilted his head towards me. A smile broke across my face when he called it 'our room' after all it is only a week and a half to go before I was living here full time as his wife.
Alice jumped off the bed and rushed over to me kissing me goodnight on the cheek then grabbed Jaspers hand and stopped at the door looking at the crack in the wall. She rolled her eyes laughing then shut the door behind them.
" Well that was awkward." I let out a long breath. " Yes it was, may I ask what exactly did he do.?"
" I thought you knew"
" I don't know I didn't hear him, that seems to be happening a lot tonight. I only heard after I got out of the shower, but Jasper was singing in his head trying to calm himself and Alice was only thinking about taking Jasper away because it got to much for him to deal with or something like that." Edwards voice was unsure. I was positive that he didn't like this fact at all. Neither did I for that matter.
" Nothing really happened. I laid back on the bed to rest my eyes and when I opened them Jasper was lying on the side of me. He put his hand over my mouth to stop my scream and apologized for scaring me. I asked him why he was there, but he wasn't sure. He said that he was lead by subconscious feelings. His voice sounded funny like it was dreaming, I guess you would say. But he said things that were truthful just he couldn't explain why he was there other then the feeling being overwhelming. He brushed his fingers across my cheek and thats when I jumped off the bed and tried to get into the bathroom, but for once you remembered to lock a door!" I didn't tell him about the moan.
I didn't want him to get even more mad. He may have acted like it was nothing, but I could tell deep down that it was. He clenched his teeth the still mask flickered for a second on his face before he kissed my head relaxing.
Edward walked off into his closet, while I changed in the still steamed bathroom. It was so hot that it was making me sweat a little. I wondered if he even used any cold water at all. I dressed quickly pulling my hair up into a pony tail on top of my head. I washed my face then opened the bathroom door striking what I hoped to be a sexy pose. I was dressed in one of his button down shirts with a pair of cotton pj shorts that barely showed from underneath the the shirt.
Edward was already lying on the bed with the blankets pulled down for me. He smiled at my pose and indicated for me to come to him bending his finger. I ran and jumped on the bed and almost fell off the side, but Edward caught me pulling me on his lap laughing at my clumsiness. I blushed laughing. He leaned down filling my face with kisses.
He stopped kissing me softly on the mouth then rested his cheek against my forehead playing with my hair. I looked down and saw the journal Esme had given me earlier. I picked it up and found a pen waiting inside of the first page. I smiled up at Edward who gave me a small grin back. " I knew you would love it."
" I do"
" So what are you going to wright about first?" his voice was loving and thoughtful.
" Well since my life didn't really start until I met you, what else is there to wright about?" I kissed him again.
" I love you".
" I love you, but don't you want to at least put somethings in there about your life before you moved to Forks and met me?"
I thought about it then decided that he was right, so I started with the basics, my birthday, my parents names and their birthdays and so on and so forth. Edward sat quietly with his eyes closed as I wrote listening to the low music playing in the back round. I stopped writing when my eyes were getting to heavy to focus. I put the pen in the page and closed the book looking up at Edwards flawless face. He opened his eyes looking down at mine and smiled softly.
" Time for bed now, love" he moved me under the blankets and pulled them up around me, grabbing the book and placing it on the floor before taking his place beside me, hugging me to him.
" Edward, I forgot to ask you, did you make a wish at all?" I yawned into his chest.
" No"
"No? Why not?" I asked.
" I already got my wish the day I found you. You were the shooting star in my life and you landed in my arms. What else is there to wish for. When I have everything that matters to me right here wrapped in my arms." Edwards soft velvety tone made my heart sing. I looked up at him and brushed my lips against his chin and fell fast asleep completely at ease.
Where was I? I couldn't see anyone. I call out for Edward, but he isn't there. Everything goes black. I smell candles and the lingering smell of blood. I open my eyes I was in a circler room... no I was in the top of a tower. I know this tower, I don't want to be there, I scream for Edward again and wait for him to come. Everything gets blurry and Edwards got my hand were running fast, the trees whipping by us. It's dark I hear screams, I hear crying. I'm falling I see Jacobs face flash by I reach for him and then his gone. I hit the hard ground. I hear a thud on the side of me, I peer through the dark it's a body, I know this body I scream his name but he does not stir. I roll him over his face is blank my beloved is dead.
I sat bolt up right tears streaming down my face still screaming his name. My angels arms cradles me back to him.
" SHHH love it was only a dream, I'm here, I'm here," Edwards soothing voice brought me around to my senses. I took deep breaths trying to stop my tears and steady my breathing. Edward took my face in his hands searching my eyes with his golden gaze. I felt relief flow through me. It was a confusing, heartless, evil dream. He kissed my tremblings lips calming me more.
" It was horrible, I never want to dream again." I crocked through sobs.
" You must dream while you still can before you can't" Edwards voice was strained his voice sounded upset.
" They all can't be nightmares remember that. It pains me so to see you this way. Will you tell me what happened? You don't have to if you don't want to?" I could hear the sorrow in his words.
I took deep breaths gathering my strength and quickly told him my dream. The tears burned my eyes the harder I cried. Edward held me tightly in his arms rocking me trying to calm my emotions for what felt like hours. I finally cried myself back to sleep with no more dreams.
o0o0o0o
I felt the heat of the sun on my eyelids and a lite tickling feeling dancing across my face. I wrinkled my nose breathing in a delicious scent. "mmmmm"
" Awake my sleeping angel, my love, my life." he leaned in and kissed me lightly brushing his lips on mine. I rubbed the sleep from my eyes and turned over more to face my prince. An astonishing beautie greeted my eyes. Even with the tinted window his skin showed a small glitter. I found the source of the tickling in his long white fingers. He was holding a branch of pink orchids and beside him was a tray full of all my favorite breakfast foods. I gasped smiling with joy at the sweet surprise.
" Breakfast in bed from your soon to be husband, another human experience you needed to have." Edward smiled my crooked smile melting my heart.
" It's perfect where did you get all this food from?" I asked taking a piece of bacon.
" I managed to make some of it myself actually. But the rest of it I had Carlisle pick up on his way home this morning from that little dinner near the hospital." He smirked.
" You cooked some of this?" I said in disbelief I knew that he had learned a little when he surprised me before prom with the dinner he made at my house. But this time there was no Charlie to taste test things.
" Don't sound so disgusted. I worked hard trying to get that bacon your eating to look right." he pouted his lip a little hurt.
I chuckled " Edward, I didn't mean it like that. I just wanted to know what you made so I could eat that first. Oh and who taught you how to cook this stuff anyway?"
Edwards face brightened with a big smile " Watching you cook breakfast for Charlie over the ...oh lets see... last two years we've been together. I was bond to pick something up. And some of it I just followed the box."
I couldn't stop smiling now the dream I had was gone from mind. " SO my oh so loving soon to- be- hubby. What did you make me?" He laughed at my little rhyme then started pointing out the toast and the sliced fresh fruit that was sitting on a huge waffle that looked a little burnt. It still tasted good all in all. I stuffed myself until I thought I was about to explode eating everything that he made me and left the food from the dinner behind.
I patted my full belly and thanked Edward kissing him on the cheek then hopped off the bed and took my shower and got dressed. I opened the door to an empty room. I figured he must have brought the food downstairs so I followed suit.
Me being me tripped down the last two stairs in the entrance hall landing right on the bruise I already had. Edward ran into the room at the sound and my frustrated growl.
" Not again! I can't leave you alone for a second can I" he rushed over picking me up caring me to the couch.
" I'm fine, nothings broken but my ego." I grumbled.
" I'll get you some ice don't move." Edward was back in a blink of an eye holding a ice pack.
I stood up a bit shaky but other then that I wasn't in much pain. " Edward thats not necessary." I lied. I hated being fussed over.
" You know you can't lie to me, Bella. Please just take it." He set his full power of his eyes on me and I felt my resolve crumble at once. I huffed and took the ice pack. " I love it when your stubborn." he laughed under his breath. I shot him a dirty look and smirked.
" So what do you want to do today?" Edward asked the laugh still visible in his eyes.
" I was thinking, if it's ok with you of course, if we could go start packing some of my things that I want to take with me. It's ok if you rather wait for a day when it's not sunny out, I can wait." I said placing my hands on my hips. He picked me up in his arms hugging me to him spinning me in circles.
" It's more then okay! No one will see I have a hoodie in the car and plus it wont be long until it rains. Plus we are after all going to be married really soon so we better get everything out now before there is no going back." He said in between kisses making my heart flutter.
We were out the house and in the Volvo in vampire speed. Edwards face was breath taking with the excitement. I grabbed his hand and kissed it.
" Forever"
" Forever" he whispered brushing the back of his hand along my jaw line. As we flew down the long drive in record time.

I know another A/N: sorry,
Okay this chapter was meant to be longer like I said in the beginning , but when I started typing the scenes after the meadow the Jasper scenes and entrance hall scenes just came out of me. It wasn't plained they wanted it that way. I know how crazy that must sound, but like Stephenie has said herself the characters have a mind of their own, whether it makes sense to us or not they do. So the chapter varied from course causing me to rework things. The dream was never apart of it either. I was going to end it there but I didn't want the chapter to end with Bella falling asleep again so I set up the next chapter that really was what was to happen next after the meadow. So the next chapter is the rest of this one that didn't work into this one which finalized its self. I know I'm babbling like a crazy woman and I'm sorry, but I also just want to let you know that there is 2 other ways the meadow love scene takes place. I have one that isn't so touchy feeling (lets just call it that) and I have one that is a milder one then the one I posted. So if I get to many complaints about this one being to much then I'll change it.
So I hope you like this one and I'll try to have the rest typed out A.S.A.P. Thanks again and happy reading!
