Edward POV

I felt a piece of hair brush across my nose and got a little confused. I struggled to open my eyes, but it was worth it. I don't remember how I ended up like this with Bella, but I didn't care. My face was snuggled into her neck while my left arm was under her head, holding it up. My other arm draped lightly across her smooth stomach and her hand held onto mine tightly. Our legs were tangled with each other's to keep warm. I stayed like I was trying to hold this moment as long as I could before she woke up. I tried to remember what the hell happened after our third round of quarters, I don't even know how in the world we made it to the living room.

I heard a small groan which made my thoughts pass and then I heard her whisper "Edward?"

I stiffened, but stayed exactly where I was "Yes"

"Do you remember how we got like this?" She asked and I noticed she didn't move either.

"No Bella, honestly I have no idea. I remember playing quarters and that's it" I mentioned before she turned so she was now on her back.

My hands stayed in place as she moved and our legs were still sort of tangled together. She rubbed my hand before bringing up to her forehead "I can't believe I don't feel bad"

I chuckled at her comment and was about to speak, but we were interrupted by Alice! "You two get the hell up and clean up! It's a pig sty in here!"

Both Bella and I both started busting out laughing before detangling ourselves and sitting up on the floor. I groaned as I felt how stiff my back was by sleeping on the floor. I also groaned at the loss of Bella by my side. I admit I could wake up every morning with her like that; it was just so…amazing. I looked up and across the living room to the kitchen; I was shocked because it did look like a tornado came through the house.

"Geez, I didn't know we made that big a mess" I heard Bella mumble as she picked herself up of the floor. She was right, there were two empty pizza boxes and like a hundred beer bottles all over the floor. The chairs in the kitchen were knocked over and even a few pizza stains on the carpet.

I finally stood up beside her and brushed my fingers through my messy hair before speaking "Yea, I guess we should clean this up even though I don't remember making the mess"

I noticed Bella shrug her shoulders and start picking up a few things from the floor, so I decided to make myself useful and go pick up the chairs in the kitchen. I stopped when I noticed Bella had a few tears in her eyes. Why in the hell was she crying?

Bella POV

Two weeks had passed since mine and Edward's Halloween encounter. I still couldn't believe he didn't remember kissing me. It was the single most amazing thing I had ever felt in my life. It was like a lightning strike through my veins. I can still feel his lips moving across mine. I touched my lips to try to simmer the burn I felt just thinking about the kiss. The kiss didn't turn into some hot make-out session; it was just gentle, intense, and beautiful. Afterwards we just laid there until we both fell into a deep slumber.

I sighed when I realized what time it was because I had to meet Alice and Rosalie outside the stadium for the game. Seattle was now in the record books with eight wins and two losses and ranked #22 in the nation. We were playing the #6 ranked Oregon team today with us predicted to lose by fourteen. Edward and Emmett said that the prediction was wrong and we were going to win, they just didn't know by how much. My thoughts shifted once I heard my phone ringing from my night stand….

Rosalie had called me and reminded me of what time it was, so I darted out the door. I arrived at the stadium a few minutes later, getting the glare from both Alice and Rosalie. "Bella, where in the hell have you been?"

"I just lost track of time, I was thinking about things" I mentioned taking a seat in between Rosalie and Alice.

"What were you thinking about?" Alice asked wrapping up in a blanket since Jasper wasn't going to be there to keep him warm

I sighed quietly to myself hoping they wouldn't hear "It's nothing, just a setback"

Obviously, Alice didn't believe me "Your full of crap, you've been acting weird for a while now"

"Okay, something is wrong. Please don't tell anyone" I pleaded as I pulled down the hoodie over my ears.

I noticed they were waiting on my to keep going so I started my story "Halloween night, Edward kissed me"

"What!" They both screamed at the same time, right before Alice asked another question "Why didn't you tell us sooner!"

"Well, it's kind of embarrassing. He doesn't even remember!" I stated as I let my head fall in my hands, covering up my embarrassment.

"What! He doesn't remember kissing you, when he's head over heels for you?" Alice said immediately regretting her announcement about Edward's lover for me.

I looked up and stared at her for a moment "What are you talking about?"

"Oh God" I heard Alice mumble before Rosalie started speaking again "Edward's in love with you. He didn't know how to tell you because he was afraid you wouldn't feel the same way"

I sighed and lounged further back in my chair and mumbled to myself "How stupid am I? I didn't even know my best friend was in love with me. I'm an idiot"

"You're not an idiot" I heard Rosalie say before placing her arms around my shoulder pulling me closer to her which made me smile. My attention made its way to the field when I heard the hollering from the fans sitting around us. We were winning 28 to 7 late in the third quarter. We had just made a first down and were now on the eleven yard line, but one of our players was hurt. Taking a closer look, I finally realized it to be Lance.

"I hope's he is okay" Rosalie mumbled under her breath.

I felt bad as they carried him off the field on the med kart, but I immediately felt better as I saw Edward make his way onto the field. As they lined up on the line, my breath caught in my throat. It felt like everything just got a whole lot slower waiting for Edward to snap the ball. I closed my immediately when he snapped the ball and quickly opened them back up once I heard hollering from Rosie and Alice.

"Woo Hoo! Go Edward!" We all hollered together, celebrating his second touchdown of the season. I was amazed, one snap of the ball and we scored. It's like he knew exactly where I sitting in the stands. Our eyes locked with one another for a few moments, like he was looking into my soul. That's the moment I knew I was made for Edward Cullen.

Edwards POV

Once I spotted Bella in the stands out of the 90,000 people there, I knew we were connected. I looked at her now from across the room. She was playing around with Emmett as they always do. Once I arrived here from the game she once again started acting weird around me. We probably said four words to one another the entire night which really bothered me, but again I didn't want to say anything about it.

"Edward, can I talk to you for a minute?" Rosalie asked me interrupting my thoughts.

"Sure" I mumbled as she took a seat beside on the couch.

I sat there for a good two minutes before she started speaking "Edward, I kind of told Bella something that I shouldn't have at the game"

I gulped before asking a question "Rosie, please tell me..."

She stopped me before I could finish "...I told her you were in love with her. It just slipped. I'm…"

I stood up before she could finish and pointed a finger in her face "I told you that in confidence! How could you do this to me, no wonder she's acting weird!!!"

I stopped yelling once I realized everyone was staring at me. I didn't realize I had raised my voice at her. I turned around once more to look at Bella's confused face and walked out the door…

The view of the stars from the middle of the stadium was amazing. I could probably point out every constellation in the sky tonight. I couldn't believe Rosalie told Bella about how I feel. I didn't want her to find out like that, but I guess now I have to deal with everything when it comes. The way I feel about Bella is sort of like the stars, burning bright and always come back to haunt you. I close my eyes and try to stop thinking about my bad problems and focus on the good ones. I will be the starting quarterback from now one, unless I start to suck which probably want happen. I felt so alive during the game. There was probably no other comparison than throwing a winning touchdown.

"I thought I would find you here" I heard Bella state as she walked up behind me.

I sighed and stood up to face her. I looked straight into her eyes so maybe I could get some conciliation of how she feels in this very moment, but I couldn't tell. I opened my mouth to speak, but I couldn't find any words to say.

"It's okay Edward. You don't have to feel weird around me"

I gave sigh of relief and spoke to her "Bella, I didn't want you to hear that from anybody but me. It's true what she said, I…I just..."

"You kissed me Halloween night" She blurted out when she realized I couldn't finish what I was going to say. I was a little taken aback because I didn't believe I would kiss her and not remember any of it.

I shook my head before speaking "I'm so in love with you Bella. I realized it when you started dating Mike, but I think I've always been. I just don't believe I could kiss you and not remember any of it…its' just insane"

She didn't hesitate a bit before she spoke again "Well, maybe I can remind you"

Before I knew what was happening her lips were on mine. It wasn't rough or a needy kiss, but gentle and sweet. When she pulled away my head was spinning. I thought a touchdown was the most exciting thing ever, but now I know it was a lie. Her lips on mine is better than any kind of drug.

I smiled at her and brought my hand to brush a piece of hair from her face. I felt her shudder beneath my touch and I smiled once again. My hand finally reached down to cup the back of her neck and pull her lips closer to mine…

Bella POV

I couldn't help but shudder beneath his touch on my cheek. My breath completely left me when his lips started to descend on mine again. I reached up on my tip toes to try and meet him halfway. Our lips touched for the second time and everything changed: I knew I would never kiss another soul if my life depended on it. It was slow and sensual at first until I moved my arms around his neck to pull his lips closer to mine. I felt his hands grip my hips firmly and our tongues teasing one another. The kiss was so amazing I didn't want it to end, but I needed air and had to pull away.

I kept my eyes closed as he laid his forehead against mine, trying to catch his breath. One our breathing labored out he put a small peck against my lips before pushing me out so he could look at me. "You're beautiful"

I smiled and put my hand to his cheek "I wish you would have told me how you feel a lot sooner"

"After that, yea, I wish I would have to" He mentioned and we both giggled.

He stopped suddenly and looked me dead in the eye "I love you Bella Swan"

"I love you too Edward Cullen" We both smiled before I jumped into his willing arms. I held on tight as he twirled me around, laughing. I really didn't believe in fairy tales, but I do believe this is my dream come true!
