He nodded and gave me a hug. I walked inside and I realized that I was exhausted.
I put on my pajamas, brushed my teeth, and crawled into bed. That night was the first night that I dreamed of Edward.
BPOV
That morning, I woke up feeling happy. For the first time in a long time, I actually wanted to get out of bed at 7:00 in the morning. My phone was going crazy.
I looked at the caller ID and I sighed. Of course; Alice.
"Hello?"
"Bella! Give me details! How was it?"
I groaned. "Alice, do you know what time it is?"
"I have been up all night, waiting to call you! You think that I would wait any longer?"
True. "It was fine, Alice. Edward kissed me and he took me to his house to meet Carlisle and Esme. That's all the details."
"OH MY GOSH!!!!! This is huge, Bella! He kissed you? Is he a good kisser? Was there a spark?" Oh great. Now I had to tell her if her cousin was a good kisser.
"You know what? I'm not even going to answer the first question, and I did feel something when he kissed me." I sighed. "That's all I am going to tell you."
"Good enough. Is he going to take you out again?"
"I don't know, Alice."
"Don't worry. I'll talk to him. Bye!" Before I could protest, she hung up.
Right then, my phone vibrated again. I looked at it and saw that it was Edward. Man, Alice is one fast little pixie.
"Hello?" I said, trying not to sound too excited.
"Bella! It's Edward." My heart sped as I heard his velvet voice. "So, I was wondering, do you want to go out again tonight? Alice wants to double with us. Emmett wants to come but he doesn't have a date," he said chuckling.
"I know some people. Let me call you back?"
"Okay. Bye," he said, sounding like he didn't want to hang up. Or maybe I just wanted him to.
I called Rosalie and asked her to go out with me and Alice.
"Well, I don't have a date. I don't want to be the fifth wheel."
"What if I get you a date?" I asked, sounding hopeful.
"I guess so," she groaned.
"Alright, I will call Emmett right now."
"Wait a minute. Emmett? Like, Emmett Cullen?"
"Yeah, is there a problem?"
"No, I guess not. Just make sure that he showers first. Agreed?"
"Thanks Rose!" I said, now really excited.
"You owe me, Bella."
I said good bye and called Edward to tell him the good news.

Edward picked me up at seven to meet Alice at Olive Garden. Alice had come over earlier and used me as her Bella Barbie. I now had a bunch of goop on my face.
When I heard the doorbell ring, I grabbed my purse and answered the door. Edward was standing there, looking like a Greek God.
He smiled my favorite crooked smile and reached for my hand. "You look beautiful. Of course, you always do."
"Thank you," I said breathlessly. "You look nice, too. Of course, you always do."
He smiled at my use of his words. "Are you ready to go?"
"Yep." I said, popping my mouth on the p. He took my hand and walked me to his car.
When we were almost there, Edward smiled at me and grabbed my hand. "You seem awfully quiet tonight."
"Do I? I have a lot on my mind." I said, absentmindedly.
"Well, if you need to talk, I'm here," he said reassuringly. He gave my hand a squeeze.
"Thanks." I said smiling at him.

"Thanks." Bella said, smiling at me. My breath caught in my throat. She was gorgeous. She had the most radiant smile. It made my heart drop into my stomach. She looked so beautiful tonight. Her hair was curled; she had some eye makeup on, and a blue dress. I thought that blue looked amazing with her skin tone.
I pulled into the restaurant that we were eating at and looked over at Bella. I couldn't help it. I leaned in and kissed her softly on the lips. I felt that odd feeling go through me. She tangled her hands in my hair; something that she did a lot. As the kiss deepened, I heard a tap on the window. Neither of us moved, then another tap. I sighed and pulled away. It was Alice.
I rolled down the window and said, "What do you want Alice?"
"Well, we do have reservations. We are ten minutes late thanks to you two and your lip-locking," she said, but instead of disappointed, she sounded kind of smug.
I sighed before I got out of the car and opened Bella's door for her. Once we were inside I saw where Alice, Jasper, Emmett, and Rosalie were sitting. Emmett had his arm around Rosalie and I bit back a smile. She didn't seem to mind though, which was a good sign. I wonder how much Alice paid her, I thought to myself. I looked over at Bella and she smiled at me.
"See?" she mumbled so low that only I could hear. I chuckled and pulled her to the table.
"Good to see you here, Rose." Bella sounded a little more smug than Alice had in the parking lot.
She smiled at Emmett. "He's not as bad as I thought." They were looking at each other all googly-eyed. It was nauseating. Finally, I cleared my throat. Alice and Jasper were talking quietly and didn't pay attention. Emmett and Rosalie were now making out. So I turned to Bella and she smiled and took my hand.
"Edward, I have been thinking, I think you should meet Charlie."
I'm sure I looked scared. "I'm not bullet proof!"
She grinned. "Yes, but his opinion is important to me. Please?" Crap! She looked at me with those puppy eyes. I couldn't resist.
"Fine, but you owe me." I said grudgingly.
She laughed quietly. "I'll be sure to pay you back." She winked at me and then the waiter came.
The rest of the date turned out to be not bad. Emmett and Rosalie's relationship turned out to be a big success. They left early and I didn't want to know why. Alice and Bella were talking about the graduation party Alice was throwing the night of graduation. It was only a month away. Jasper and I were talking about school sports and such. Finally Bella yawned and I looked at my watch. It was nearly 10:00 p.m.
"I better get you home, Bella. I don't want to get on Charlie's bad side."
She laughed and nodded. "That wouldn't be the best first impression."
We said goodbye to Alice and Jasper and got in the car.
"So Bella, how are you going to pay me back?" I was honestly curious.
"You'll see." She said with a small smile on her face. I couldn't stop looking at her all night. And now it was especially difficult.
I pulled into her driveway and noticed that Charlie's cruiser wasn't in the driveway.
She obviously saw the questioning look on my face. "Charlie doesn't get home until midnight," she said. "He works late on Friday nights."
"I had a wonderful time, Bella." I looked into her eyes and her breath became uneven. I smiled slightly.
"M-me too." She stuttered.
"So, when are you going to pay me back?" A look of realization came across her face. She grinned mischievously and took my face into her hands.
"It depends," she whispered, her sweet breath fanning across my face.
I chuckled and crushed my mouth to hers. It went slow at first and then it deepened. As it became more passionate, she crawled on my lap. I wrapped my arms around her tightly and her hands went straight to my hair. We sat there kissing for a few minutes before I noticed the time.
When we stopped to get oxygen, I sighed. I didn't want to stop, but Charlie was going to be home in ten minutes.
"You should go." She whispered.
I nodded and opened the door. We both scrambled out and I walked her to the door.
"Thank you, Edward. I had a good time."
"We should do this again sometime," I really didn't want to leave Bella. "Emmett and Rosalie are quite the pair, huh?"
She smiled. "And it was all the work of yours truly."
I chuckled and took her face in my hands. I leaned in and gave her a small kiss on the lips. "Good night, Bella."
BPOV
That night, as I got ready for bed, I couldn't stop thinking about the feeling that I got as Edward kissed me. It was like I knew who I wanted to be with, as if he was the one.
Before I went to bed, Alice called me.
"So, I see you and Edward have gotten past the shy part of your relationship. I had to tap twice on the window before you two pulled apart." She didn't sound mad. I could hear the smile in her voice.
"Hey, he kissed me first. Besides, this relationship is different than any of the other ones I have had."
"Wow, Bella. That was deep."
I laughed, and we continued to talk until one in the morning.
When I couldn't stand staying up any longer, I told her goodbye. As I closed my eyes, I heard scratching on the window.
