Well I'm glad you liked chapter 8! Thanks for reading and review! You guys rule! Here's chapter 9! Enjoy!
"So where are we going?" I asked anxiously. Edward said he was taking me on a date but he wouldn't tell me where. He even blind folded me.
"You'll see" I sighed.
"Can't I take of the blind fold?" He held my hand.
"Nope. But we are almost there." This didn't surprise me. Edward always drove way to fast. I felt the car began to slow then come to a stop. Edward let go of my hand and a door opened and closed.
"Edward!" I scream thinking he left. My door opened.
"Relax I'm right here." He unbuckled me and helped me out of the car.
"Now can I take off the blind fold." He picked me up bridal style "Ahh! Edward! Don't let go." I screamed and put my arms around him and held on type.
"I won't." He promised and the door closed. I heard him open and close another car door and held on to something.
"So how long are you going to carry me?"
"A couple hours." He said casually. If I wasn't blind folded I would be glaring.
"You wouldn't dare!" I said harshly.
"Your not the one in control at the moment." I didn't need to be able to see to know he had a crooked smile on his face.
"Actually, I'm in control because I can bribe and threaten you." I heard him chuckle
"Again you have no leverage here. I'm in control."
"I'll never kiss you again if you don't put me down right this second."
"…….Point taken" He set me down on my feet. "Either way I win, because we're already here." He untied my blind fold to reveal a small meadow. The grass was frozen with frost that made it shimmer like diamonds. There was a small snow bed which was not ruined by even one foot print.
"It's gorgeous Edward!" I said admiring it. He laid out a blanket and a small basket that was stuffed with sandwiches and snacks. I sat down beside him.
"This is amazing!" I told him and gently kissed him.
"I thought you where never going to kiss me again." He said sarcastically.
"I was bluffing." I smiled and kissed him again. He chuckled and we began to eat the lunch Edward prepared.
"So you never told me what you did at military school. I missed all the good stories so tell up!"
"Noting interesting really happened there. I got yelled at, ate bad food, they shaved my head, and made me run a lot. That's it."
"Why did you go?" I asked curiously.
"I had to escape some stuff. I was actually planning on going to medical school or something when I got back but Esme made me wait a year, and then you were…Well you and now I can't even think of leaving."
"What made you want to leave?" I asked curiously.
"Well it was….because of Tanya."
"What?" I didn't understand.
"I was totally in love with her. Everything she said, everything she did was amazing to me. I talked to her once and the next thing I knew we were going out. And I was so happy."
"If you're trying to make me jealous mission accomplished." I said folding my arms and looked away madly.
"Bella, I didn't love her. I just thought I was because I was lusting over her." So much better! I thought angrily "I don't remember one word she ever said to me, but we were always kissing and she was always touching me." Why was he telling me this! "But she was horrible to me. She dumped me, by text message. She didn't talk me again for months but she spread vicious rumors about me. I was heart broken so I ran away and hid. I basically was a zombie, not talking to anyone until you came back home. You helped me get over her and on to better things, much better things." He kissed me but I was still a little mad. I heard a noise in the bushes and I turned quickly.
"Bella?" Jacob asked. His shirt was off and he took his head phones out looking like he just came from a jog. I Jumped up and ran to him to hug him.
"Hey Jacob I missed you." He was surprisingly warm although he was running in the cold forest
"Hey Bells. I'm not interrupting anything am I?" Edward walk toward us and pulled me to him.
"Yes you were" Edward said bitterly toward him.
"I should go." Jacob said turning to leave. "Merry Christmas." He said over his shoulder.
"Wait Jacob! What did you say?" He turned around
"Merry Christmas." He repeated. I started to panic
"It's Christmas time already!" I searched my jeans desperately for my phone.
"Ya it's in a couple of days." He verified.
"Edward, where's my phone?!" He looked worried because of my panic.
"In the car. Why?"
"I need to call my mom!" I said desperately. He handed my the car keys.
"I'll be right back. Jacob please don't leave I still need to talk to you. Edward which way is the car?"
"Just follow that path for a little while. It's a quick walk."
"Ok I'll be right back. Be nice." I took off running. I only tripped once making a small rip on the knee of my jeans. I opened the car door quickly and grabbed my phone from the seat and dialed my moms cell number.
"Hello?" Her happy voice said.
"Hey mom."
"Bella! How have you been?" She sounded distracted.
"Um good. I just wanted to call to wish you a merry Christmas."
"Ah honey that's so sweet!" There was load cheering in the background.
"Mom where are you?"
"Oh Phil is playing a game right now." I felt guilty, I had interrupted something important to her
"Mom, I'm sorry for keeping you from the game. What's the score."
"It's 12 to7 but it's ok honey. You can interrupt me when ever you need to. How had everything been?"
"It's been amazing mom."
"Even with all the rain?" She asked.
"Yep."
"How are the Cullens?"
"There good. Esme and Carlisle are very hospitable to me."
"How is everyone else."
"Good. Rosalie, and Emmett are happy and Alice and Jasper are perfect."
"What about Edward?" I bushed.
"He's……same as ever."
"That's great Bells. WOOOHOOO!! Ya go Phil!" I smiled. Phil must have scored or made a home run, or what ever is good in base ball.
"Mom I let you get back to your game. I love you."
"I love you to honey. Bye." She hung up. I sighed and started on my way back to the meadow. I gasped and called Alice.
"Hello."
"Alice you've got to help me!"
"Bella what did Edward do to you?!" She screamed into the phone. I laughed.
"Nothing it's just I forgot to get Edward a Christmas present ad I was sort of hoping you could help me."
"Sure what do you want to get him?"
"I don't know. I was thinking a cd or something."
"Bella he was like every cd under the sun." I thought for a second.
"Does he have an Ipod?" I asked her.
"Nope! That's a brilliant idea! I'm at the store I'll get you one to give to him."
"Alice it's too expensive."
"Bella, don't worry about it. I've already picked him out one so you can't stop me now."
"Thank you Alice you're a life saver!"
"I know!" She said in her usual perky voice. "I've got to go. There's a sale at Victoria secret!" She hung up on me. I laughed. Alice was always at the mall. If she could she would live there. I walked to the meadow but something was wrong. I heard yelling. I ran the last part of the way to see Edward and Jacob on the ground hitting and kicking and yelling at each other.
"What the hell are you going?!" I yelled at them.
"How dare you use Bella!" Jacob yelled at Edward.
"I didn't and never will!" They were still hitting each other. I ran over to them and attempted to split them apart. They rolled away from each other and stood up still glaring at each other. Edward's nose was bleeding and Jacob had a black eye.
"What the hell were you doing?!" I yelled at them. Jacob and Edward both pointed at each other.
"It was his fault!" They said in unison. I went to the picnic basket and got out a napkin and made a snow ball. I gave the napkin to Edward for his nose and gave the snow ball to Jacob for his eyes.
"I leave for ten minutes and you two are at each others necks!" They were still glaring at each other.
"He deserves it!" Jacob yelled. "He doesn't deserve anyone nearly as good as you! He is going to dump you just like with Anna!" Anna is Jacob cousin. She left a few years back. She never told me why she left. I asked once and she just said personal reasons,
"I didn't do anything to Anna!" Edward yelled at him.
"You made her leave! She was heart broken!"
"It's not my fault! I didn't do anything bad to her! She just wasn't the right one."
"SO YOU DUMPED HER BY EMAIL!" Jacob yelled at Edward and took a swing at him.
"I didn't dump her by email! I took her to lunch and told her that it just wasn't going to work out."
"Ya right! LIER!" He tried to hit him again but he dodged it.
"Look I'm sorry your cousin left but I will not hurt Bella! I could never do anything like that!"
"I don't believe you so just stay away from Bella!" Jacob yelled at him
"Don't you think I should get some say in this." They both turned as if they just relived I was there.
"Of course Bella" Edward told me.
"Bella you can't even think about staying with him! He's a jerk!"
"Actually he has been pretty nice to me."
"Bella! He does this to every girl! It's just an innocent act. He'll just use you and then drop you like a rock!" Edward went forward and hit him in the face.
"I would never even dream of such a thing!" He yelled angrily.
"Edward don't hit him! He didn't do anything wrong."
"He insulted me!"
"Jacob, Edwards not all bad. Just give him a chance."
"So you made your choice." It wasn't a question but a statement. I just nodded
"Let's go Bella." Edward went to pick up the picnic basket.
"Ok....um bye Jacob. I missed you." I went to hug him and he pulled me around into a big bear hug and spun me around.
'Merry Christmas." He told me and kissed me on the cheek gently. I heard Edward growled and Jacob smiled and jogged off. I walked over to Edward who was done packing up. He whisked me into his arms.
"Are trying to make jealous? Because if so mission accomplished" He said to me.
"Actually, that was Jacobs fault." He rolled his eyes
"You still made me jealous."
"I chose you over him and you're still jealous" I whispered in his ear
"Well…..you've got a point." I rolled my eyes again. We stood there for a moment just relaxing in his arms when Edward had a huge smile across his face.
"What?" I asked curiously.
"Good afternoon." I thought for a second then smiled and kissed him whileputting one of my legs around him and leaning into him. I was about to pull away when I felt something cold on my leg. I pulled away from him to see half a snowball on my leg and half on Edwards back. Another came flying and hit the back of Edwards head. Edward winced.
"You ok?" He nodded. And rubbed the back of his head.
"The snow ball had a rock in it."
"Come on lets go" I stuck my tongue out at the trees where I knew Jacob was. I heard a low chuckle then footsteps slowly fading away.
Edward and I walked back to the car hand in hand. "What do you want for Christmas?" He asked me.
"My two front teeth." He rolled his eyes
"Really, what do you want?" I smiled
"Nothing." I said honestly.
"Come on Bella there's got to be something.
"I really don't want anything."
"Why not?" He asked
"Well I have everything I could ever want."
"What movie did you get that from?" I hit him on the arm lightly.
"Shut up."
