I know, been a while. Sorry, very little inspiration, and I am currently working on my own novel. I will try to update and get new stuff up sooner since it's SUMMER, but I make no promises. Hope you enjoy the new chapter for He Is Gold!

"Okay, thank you." I groaned loudly, restraining the urge to bang my head on the table.

"No luck?" Bella asked as she stood at the stove.

I sighed. "None. Maybe I was just meant to go jobless for the rest of my life. I've been at this for three months now." I walked over to her, wrapping my arms around her waist as she stirred the chili she was working on.

"Edward, it will happen. You'll see." She turned her head to smile at me.

I kissed her temple. "I will never know what I did all these years without your comforting enthusiasm." I smiled. She always made me feel better.

She laughed. "You tell me. You parents still love me for changing your attitude." She smirked as she turned the stove down.

She grabbed my hand, pulling me to the table. I sat in my previous seat. She settled in my lap, my arms wrapping around her waist. I buried my face into her neck. Just thinking. Over the last three months I had been trying to find a job to help Bella with the payments on her house. She had a job, but she was just slipping by with her pay. And with being in school again, her work time had bumped down with her pay. Not only that, but she had met my parents. Oh, yes, I finally found a girl to bring home to the parental units. And of course, they were immediately in love with her. A spunky girl who kept me in line. They adored her.

Esme basically gained a daughter. They often gardened together as Bella had a love for flowers. My mother was also helping Bella being her own garden outside the house. Carlisle found her to be a sweet and polite young lady. Once she found out he was a doctor, they swept away into my father's study to discuss medical degrees, info, and God knows what. Bella wanted to be a doctor after college, and Carlisle was helping her to reach her goal. He had even gone so far as to tell me that he would pay her way through college if he had to. Bella did not know, but I knew he was completely serious.

I wanted to help her now. I probably could not be a benefit for college funds, but this, I could definitely work with. Bella deserved it all, and I wanted to give her everything I could. Whether it be a few dollars or just a hand to hold, but I wanted it be me who gave her those things. She used to object to my assistance, but I broke that habit of hers, officially, a few weeks ago. Now, I think she secretly revels in it. Never having to do absolutely everything for her. I even stayed at her house a few nights a week just to be there for her. It was amazing.

She…she was my angel. In every way possible. She started saving me with her first comeback. And to think, I used to dislike her. Don't know what I was thinking.

Pulling up to Bella's house on a bright Saturday afternoon, I found her hunched over the area against the front of her house. And her house was just vibrant. Multiple flowers lined across the front of it, lighting it up, making it seem cheerful on the outside. Huh, my mom had finally talked her into doing it. Bella had been procrastinating this for quite a while. I laughed. I knew she'd love it when she had it done, but I was just letting her work her way to it.

I walked over to her, my book bag on my shoulder. "Looks great, babe."

She stood, turning to me. An incredibly bright, beautiful smile spread across her face. I just had to smile back. Her happiness was contagious.

"Thank you." She practically danced over to me and wrapped her arms around my waist. I set my hand on her shoulder. "I like it. It really brightens things up."

I nodded, but then turned her to face me. I pulled her to my chest. "I agree, angel, but the flowers are just too dull right now."

Her jaw dropped. "You little-"

I laughed. "You're too gorgeous for them, angel."

She punched me in the ribs painfully. "Nice safe, jerk."

I took a step back and bowed deeply. "Why thank you, My Lady."

She groaned.

I followed her into the house, settling at the table. I started pulling my books out of my bag. We had a big test coming up Monday, and my angel was incredibly smart. She had been tutoring me for a good month and already my grades had risen. She had finished the assignment early, of course, so now she was reviewing with me.

I sat down at the table. She set her hands on my shoulders. "I feel gross, not gonna lie. So, why don't you start working on the review while I take a shower, and I will help you when I get out. Sound good?" she asked.

I nodded.

She kissed my temple. "Great! I won't be long."

She headed up the stairs. I sat back in my chair and let the air rush from my lungs. I smiled with a little laugh.

How did I get so lucky?
