How to cure writer's block number 3: Go to a two hour long choir rehersal and spend the whole time thinking about your story! I'm glad to know that nobody was upset over the change in POV from the last chapter, but don't worry we are now back in the head of Edward! YAY! This chapter will be split up into two chapters...It will help me out because I get to celebrate my grandparents' 50th wedding anniversary on Saturday so I won't be able to sit at my computer all day (so when I come home I can easily post the next chapter, I won't have to write it first!)

Let me set the stage for this part: We get a little Cullen family interaction (awe) and then Edward/Bella interaction! ~Enjoy!~

EPOV

The next morning I was actually looking forward to going to school, even though I knew Bella wasn't going to be there, just the thought that I was going to her house afterwards made me happy. I woke up earlier than my siblings, and found Esme and Carlisle in the kitchen, who both looked shocked to see me up so early. I quickly ran to the garage and jumped into Rosalie's BMW, She has plenty of gas that little liar, I thought when I turned her car on and saw that the gas gage was at full.

I turned her car off and started back to the house. "Oh sorry Carlisle!" I said almost bumping into him when I entered the house.

"Not a problem, that's what coffee mug lids are for!" he said with a chuckle. "Bye Esme, love you!"

"Bye Carlisle, I hope all goes well for you today love!" she replied from the kitchen.

When I re-entered the kitchen Esme was sitting down at the small table with a cup of coffee, a bagel and the local newspaper. While still reading an article she asked me, "Is Carlisle in the garage?"

"Yes," I replied.

She quickly set the paper down and ran to the kitchen window that overlooks the driveway. I saw her smile reflecting in the glass and she waved. She then turned to me with the smile still on her face. "Can I get you something for breakfast?" she asked sweetly.

"I can get it! Go on back to your breakfast!"

She nodded, walked back to the table and continued reading the paper. I finally noticed that she was in her pajamas, with a bath robe, and slippers. Her hair was still a mess from sleeping, and she had no make-up on; but upon further inspection I decided that she really didn't need to wear any make-up at all. This was a sight I have never seen; she and Carlisle were always dressed and ready to go when we woke up.

I wasn't very hungry so I decided on orange juice and a bagel. I joined her at the table when I finished gathering my breakfast. She looked up from the paper, smiled and grabbed her coffee cup. "It's nice to have company this morning," she said after sipping her coffee and placing the cup on the table. "Was there anything important in Rosalie's car that you turned it on?" she asked.

"I was making sure she has gas. I'm going back over to Bella Swan's house after school to continue working on our project, so I need to drive separately," I replied.

"That's nice! I'm glad to know that you are interacting with your peers at school; even if it's for a class," she responded smiling at me again.

I nodded took a bite of my bagel and looked around the quiet kitchen. "So do you and Carlisle do this every morning?" I asked her.

"Every morning since we got married," she nodded closing her newspaper. "We married when Carlisle was still an intern, so sometimes the mornings were the only time we got to have to be with each other. After all these years, it's become our little routine," she said with a sort of 'remembering' in her voice.

"I'm sorry I interrupted your routine then," I said feeling somewhat ashamed that I ruined one of their moments together.

"You interrupted nothing! That's just what we do; he tells me he loves me when he gets to the garage, I wish him well, I go to the window, he drives past and slows down, I wave, he blows me a kiss, then I finish breakfast and get you all ready for the day," she said softly sighing.

"As long as you're sure I didn't interrupt then okay," I said taking another bite of my bagel.

She nodded, picked the paper back up and continued reading. A few minutes later, Alice came down the stairs with a big smile on her face, "Morning Esme! Oh – and Edward!"

"Morning Alice," said Esme. "Is it my turn for the bathroom now?" she asked placing the paper down on the table.

"Yep!" replied Alice almost gliding to the fridge.

"Then please excuse me while I get myself ready for the day," she said standing up and grabbing her coffee cup; she then disappeared up the stairs.

Alice continued getting her breakfast ready. She sat down where Esme had been sitting and picked the paper up. "I didn't think you were a morning person Edward," she said to me.

"I'm not really. I just uh – couldn't sleep so I decided to get up,"

"Hmm, well mornings are great! It's so calm and peaceful," she said smiling. She was reading the paper when the toaster dinged signaling her breakfast was ready. I watched her grab a plate and place what I thought was just toast on it. When she returned to the table I finally noticed what she was having for breakfast.

"We have toaster waffles! I didn't know we have toaster waffles!" I said to her as she took a bite.

"We always have toaster waffles, but you always wake up late and miss breakfast!" she said matter-of-factly.

Pretty soon everyone was awake and we were leaving for school. I drove alone as every one else drove with Rosalie. I was glad to have the car to myself for the fact that I didn't have to listen to Emmett hassle me about going to Bella's house.

The school day went by faster than I would have imagined. I had thought that the lack of Bella would have made the day longer, but my excitement to be with her was much more overpowering. I had to remind myself to remain calm as I drove to her house. I parked where I had the day before. The first thing I noticed about the house was all the window shades were closed. "Duh! Her allergy to the sun," I told myself.

I took the steps of the porch two at a time and gently knocked on the front door. "Come on in Edward," I heard her voice through the door.

I opened the door and saw her standing on the steps. She was wearing a dark colored sweater; I guessed to protect her skin from the sunlight when I opened the door. However, little bit of the sunlight followed me in and reflected on the hardwood floors causing her to flinch. She threw her arms up to her face which was exposed, "EDWARD THE SUN!" she screamed.

I quickly slammed the door shut. "Sorry! I'm so sorry are you okay?" I said with a guilty concern in my voice. She lowered her arms and looked at me.

"No harm done," she said after a few moments. "Shall we get working on the project?" she asked with her singsong tune back in her voice.

She led the way to the dining room and I saw that the motor, wind machine and tubing was all set up waiting on the table. "I finally got the pressure to work, but I can't get any of the blood to move through the tube. So we just need to get the properties of the mixture right and our project will be complete then all we have to do is write the speech to go along with it!" she said with a smile as she sat down.

She passed me a bowl with the corn syrup and a bowl of water. I began to mix the two together, and she did the same with her own bowls of syrup and water. We worked in silence, but I secretly enjoyed the soft small breaths that she took. I looked over at her and noticed that her eye color had changed.

"Your eyes their like the color of – gold," I said.

"Um, it's just the lighting of the room. Your eyes look yellow-green," she said without taking her eyes off of the mixture she was creating.

"But last week they were golden brown,"

"My eyes change because of the lighting!" she said getting annoyed; she furrowed her brow just a little bit.

A few moments of silence passed again, but then another question popped into my head. "Is your skin so cold because you can't go into the sun?"

She sighed heavily, "No, its not," she said with even more annoyance in her voice.

"Well, then why is it hard like concrete?" I asked innocently.

Her reaction was not what I expected. She pushed herself away from the table, so hard that it caused the table to slam against the wall. She got up and left the room. It took me a few minutes to realize that her chair ended up sliding from the dining room to the kitchen and the back door was opened. THE BACK DOOR IS OPEN, I screamed in thought. I ran to the back door and outside. The sun was shining brightly and there were no clouds in sight. Shit! I thought looking around her backyard. "Bella?! Bella?!" I called out circling her backyard. I began running around crazily trying to find her but I couldn't. "BELLA!!" I screamed out again and finally I got the response I was looking for.

"Edward," her voice was calm and soft.

I turned toward the sound and saw her coming out of the forest, the hood of her sweater pulled up over her face. I ran over to her but before I could get to close she stopped me by holding up both of her hands, which were now covered with gloves.

"Edward, there is something that I need to – show you," she moved toward me and reached her hand out. She closed her hand around my right wrist; her strength matched Emmett's which shocked me, I wasn't expecting a 5'4", 120 pound girl to have such a grip.

"Okay," I said slowly and gently. I didn't want to sound too eager.

She slowly reached her hand up to her hood, and pulled it off.

Oh No! Cliffhager!!! AHHHH!! Yeah I know, there have been a lot of those lately! But think back to what just happened, we got to see Edward showing his protective side! Ooo I wonder what will happen next?! Oh wait I already do! hehehe! Don't worry, you will too!! Again major THANKS to you the reader (yep you, sitting there on the computer!)

A even bigger thank you to Stephenie Meyer, for her genuis in creating all things Twilight, and for not being angry when someone innocently writes a fan-fiction for fun! Please R&R!!!
