Chapter 6 β Eddie, Eddie, Eddie!
Rosalie's p.o.v.
I took a last glance in the mirror. My blond hair fell in soft curls down my back. I was dressed in the outfit Alice had made me: A crimson satin blouse with a big black waist belt, black slim pants and a couple of black pumps. I turned in front of the mirror, and was happy about the reflection. I really looked drop-dead-gorgeous; probably the most beautiful thing that has ever walked on this planet.
I bumped into a very excited Alice on the stairs. Her usually spiky hair was smooth, and she wore a beautiful black dress with a bare back. She looked absolutely stunning β but of course nothing next to me. If there was something I could always rely on, it was my beauty. I had never met a single person more attractive than me.
I went to Bella's room to wake her, so she could go celebrate with the rest of us. She was in fact the birthday girl. I couldn't believe I had become a mum only one year ago. It was hard to even remember life without Bella.
"Bella, honey? Wake up birthday girl - One year. Come on baby, it is definitely something to celebrate" I shook her lightly, and she woke immediately. At first she looked irritated that I had interrupted her dream, but she seemed to forgive me, and reached for my arms. She was such a clever little girl. I dressed her in a really cute dress. Alice and I had seen it in a shop window, when we were looking for pink birthday-decorations and cakes. It was a light pink color with a purple back-bow, and laces in the bottom.
I scooped her up and walked down the stairs where the whole family stood to wish her a happy birthday. I admit that the party might be a little too grand and Bella wouldn't even remember it, but Alice was Alice, there really wasn't any other excuse.
Everything was covered in pink decorations. Millions and millions of pink lights was placed everywhere in the livingroom. Not lightened yet, but would be when it turned dark outside. A big table of pink and silver presents was placed beside Edward's piano. Pink ribbons and bows hang everywhere. And there were a bouquet of pink and white roses on every flat surface. It was absolutely mindblowing perfect. A little overdone for a 1 year old birthday party, but really beautiful.
Well, at least I would make sure we took a lot of pictures. Bella should definately see this again.
Emmett laid his arm around me, and then kissed Bella sweetly on the forehead and whispering happy birthday in her ear. Then he turned and gave me a kiss too. Edward came next then, and took Bella away from me. I growled, and Emmett actually got a little chock, but Edward was unaffected by it. He just pressed his forehead to Bella's and kissed her on the nose. Emmett turned towards Esme and made his puppy face. Then he made his voice very high and baby-ish: "Momma, Eddie won't share!" he cried and started making fake sobs.
Then a little voice, one I had never in my life heard before screamed with delight and said: "Eddie!"
Everybody froze. After the shock of my daughters words and the glory over how high and beautiful the sound was my mind turned furious. It wasn't fair! Why should Edward be the first one to make her both laugh and talk? I was enraged and green with envy!
Edward's p.o.v.
"Momma, Eddie won't share!"
Ugh.. I hated when Emmett called me Eddie. He had done it a lot since Bella got here. He claimed Eddie was a more baby-proof name than Edward. βDon't ask me what that meant. I just think it was an excuse. He loved it when I was annoyed with him.
"Eddie!" squealed a high soprano voice beside me. I froze instantly. My mind just completely stopped working decently. All it could think about was Bella. SHE SAID MY NAME! SHE SAID IT! HER FIRST WORD! EDDIE!
For some reason Eddie sounded exactly right when Bella said it. I could almost feel my heart beating again β although I knew that wasn't possible. But it swelled; I swear it swelled up to twice its size. My body seemed to get overheated, like I was about to blush - which I also knew wasn't possible. I just felt so human!
I could feel my big eyes ache like I was about to cry. I could feel my lips turn up in the corners, so much that it actually started to hurt. I swung her around in a circle and I couldn't help laughing out loud with delight. Never in my life had I felt happiness this overwhelming. If you could die of it, I would be rotting away in the cemetery right now. Bella joined in my laugh, and before I knew it the whole family started laughing. Well, except Rosalie. She stood glaring at me, but I didn't care. I didn't care that I probably looked like the biggest idiot right now. I didn't care at all.
Bella seemed so surprised at the good response to her saying something that she started squealing my name again and again and again. "Eddie, Eddie, Eddie" she sang at the top of her lungs. "Bella, Bella, Bella" I sang back, almost choking on all this cheerfulness.
Aaarh.. I thought it was time for a sweet Edward-Bella moment. About time 3
