December 13, 1919
I was very nervous today, as I had plans to ask Isabella's uncle today. My mother has noticed I was nervous and sat down beside me in the sitting room.
"You will do great Edward dear," she said to me as she tried to comfort me. I gave her a smile but it was forced, and fake.
"You will be dear," mother said, as she was able to tell my smile was forced and fake.
"What if it doesn't? What if she doesn't feel the same way?" I asked at last.
"How could she not dear?" mother asked me.
I had no answer for that question mother asked me.
"I have noticed how she looks at you, dear she feels the same way she most likely just scared though."
I nodded at this and sighed some.
"I did get a call from Emma and she offered your father and I to be over for dinner," she said.
I opened my mouth ready to speak in protest, when she held a hand up and smiled, "I told her no dear, I was sure you wanted to do this on your own."
"Thank you mother, I am sorry…." I started but she held a hand again and smiled.
"I know how this is important to you dear and you want to do this on your own."
I hugged my mother, she smiled and got up and started to leave me alone with my thoughts when she stopped at the door way and turned to me, "Good luck dear." With that she left the room.
I was left alone with my thoughts for a bit of time. I was getting more and more nervous over time as I waited for her uncle to get home. So I could speak to him privately. The timed seemed to have gone by very slowly, and grew more and more nervous. I finally gave a sigh when the time finally came and made my way to their home. My nervous grew even more if that was even possible. Once I got to the door I took a deep breath and knocked on the door, Emma got the door and let me in.
"Good evening Edward," she said.
"Evening…."I said taking a deep breath before asking the question I wanted to know, she answered before I could ask question as if she can tell just by how nervous I was.
"He is in his study," she said and shut the door behind me.
I nodded to her and made my way to his study and took another deep breath and knocked on the door.
"Come in," he said I opened the door and walked in and saw him lift his head when the door opened and closed behind me.
"Edward good evening," he said.
"Evening…."
"Come have a set, relax son this is the easy part," he laughed when he sat behind his desk. I took a set and nodded at this he was right this was the easy part. I still had to ask Bella if her uncle says yes to me courting her.
"I..I love Bella very much, and was in the hopes that you would let me court her."
He didn't miss anything and smiled, "I have no issue with it, I know you can give my niece everything she needs and happy and safe. However…." He started I opened my mouth to speak in protest when he laughed. "Let me finish son," he said.
I closed my mouth and let him go on. "I do hope you understand that she grew up in a different time, she expect you to court her so publicly that you do plan to marry her some day, you will need to be careful with her she fears men for how she was raised." He said and finished.
I had a reply ready for this of course. "Yes I am aware she was raised at another time, and I do have every plan to marry her someday. I love her very much and don't see me spending the rest of my life with any other woman then Bella."
It seemed to be the answer that he was looking for he gave a smile. "Good luck son, the easy part is finished now. Now go and ask Bella if she wishes for you to court her," he said with a smile. We both got to our feet and shock hands before I turned to leave and went to look for my Bella.
I found Bella sitting in the sitting room and went to join her, her aunt followed me and smiled and nodded when Bella noticed me and left to give Bella and I some privacy. I sat down beside Bella and smiled, she smiled me back.
"You look very pretty Bella," I said, I was very nervous once more.
"Thank you, what do I deserve your visit tonight?" she asked me.
I took another deep breath and looked at my hands then at Bella. "Bella, I love you very much and was wondering if I could court you, and you court me." I asked.
I watched Bella for a bit before I looked to my hands, as I waited for her answer.
"Yes, Edward I'd love to have you court me, and love to court you." She said, I smiled and took her hand and kissed it with a smile.
"Thank you Bella," I said, at that time her aunt and uncle and the woman he was to marry and her uncle walked into the room with us.
"Congrats!" Her cousin said with a smile.
"That's great dear," her aunt said everyone said congrats to both of us, we soon had dinner, once dinner was over the time went by I sighed as I knew I had to leave but I so badly didn't want to leave Bella just yet. "See you again soon Bella?"I asked.
"Yes soon Edward," she said, as she walked me to the door and we said our goodbyes and I headed my way back home. Once I walked into the door my parents where in the sitting room.
My parents looked up when I walked into the sitting room and sat down. "How it go dear?" my mother asked.
"It went well, They both said yes," I said, my parents knew I meant Bella and her uncle said yes.
"That's great son," my father said shacking my hand with a smile. "She does seem to make you very happy," he said.
"She does father," I said, smiling at this. I was very happy for this I spent some time with my parents.
