Edward woke up the next morning feeling a little better than usual. Today seemed to look up, especially because he was going to hang out with Bella. He prepared himself for the day by taking a shower and cleaning himself up. He was taking her to breakfast and as soon as he could he called her to tell her he was on his way.
"So you'll be here in like five?" Edward smiled hearing her voice just made him feel so much better.
"Yes I'll be there soon sweetheart."
"Ok cool, I'll be done. See you in a few!"
"Ok babe!" He hung up and turned on Alice and Bella's street. He found their house and cut the engine before getting out of the car. He checked himself out in the clean car window before walking over to the front door and ringing the doorbell. Bella only took seconds to answer.
"Wow that was closer than I thought." She giggled and opened her arms for a hug. Edward happily bent down and embraced the girl he had missed for so long. He kissed the side of her head and rubbed her lower back.
"Who answered the door so fast?" He joked. She pushed him lightly and he chuckled before bending his head down and capturing her lips within his. Her hand cupped his cheek gently before pulling away slowly.
"You are beautiful." He whispered in her ear before kissing her temple gently. She smiled wider.
"I love you so much." Her tone was gentle and sincere, Edward knew she was telling the truth. He ignored the voice inside his head and kissed her head again before telling her how much he loved her too. Alice smiled at the pair from the kitchen, she was trying so hard not to burst into squeals. The couple still kept the adorable factor about them, even though they aren't official again yet. They will soon, she knows it.
"Alice I'm leaving now!" Bella yelled.
"Ok have fun!" Bella grabbed Edward's hand as she shut the door behind herself and they walked to Edward's car. He opened the door for her and she thanked him before settling in, buckling up and letting Edward prepare for the drive. While the engine warmed up he buckled up and messed with his iPod before holding Bella's hand and driving towards the local diner.
"So are yo hungry? Because I know I am." He asked.
"I am defiantly starving. I didn't eat anything because I wanted to have all the room I need to eat there." she said. He nodded and continued to drive. It was quiet, calm, not awkward but the perfect amount of everything. Obviously their connection was still there because silences were never awkward for either. When they arrived Edward helped her out again as they held hands and walked inside grabbing a table in the nearly empty joint.
"Everything looks so good." She muttered to herself. Edward chuckled at her adorableness. She hadn't lost her touch at all.
"Well everything is you know nothing has changed. Do you want your usual?" She giggled before nodding. Edward had Betty, the waitress who had been serving them for years, bring them their usuals. Edward always ordered the bacon cheeseburger combo with fries and a chocolate milkshake and Bella always had the grilled cheese and celery sticks with ranch dip. Both always got cokes to go along with the meals. Edward grabbed her hands from across the table.
"Ya know...I know we didn't really discuss it but I think we should get back together. Now I realize that we still need to give each other time to re-focus on our futures together and get used to being around each other again. It'll take time, all I'm asking for is a chance." Edward explained. He rubbed his thumb over her knuckles.
"Edward Masen you know I will always love you and I defiantly want to get back together. I don't think I've ever heard you take the words directly out of my mouth. That's amazing." Bella nodded.
"I'm glad you agree." He smiled. He leaned over the table and kissed her softly. She smiled into the kiss and tangled her fingers in his messy hair keeping him there. Edward eagerly kissed her back, feeling the passion stirring within. Every time he kisses her, ever since they first started going out, that's how it was for him. It hasn't changed and that makes him happy. As their tongues tangled and danced, their fingers playing in each others hair, a clearing of the throat made them pull away blushing.
"Well well I see you two haven't changed. It's nice to have you both back and happy." Betty stated as she winked and left. Bella and Edward shared smiles as they ate, it was a nice way to spend some time together again.
