Evening all, this is yesterday's update that wasn't written due to the lovely doctors. I'm off on holiday tomorrow so updates will begin again 2 weeks on Monday. Thanks for all your support!
Experiment: Do people actually read my author notes? If you are reading this, drop me a review but stick your favourite animal randomly on the end so I'll know if you've read this. This is purely for experimental purposes. I'm interested in this sort of thing.

As 7 o'clock came around I became increasingly nervous. It was my first ever date with Sam. I'd dressed in a skirt and nice top, hoping that I'd fit the criteria of 'Comfy smart'. I still wondered what we were doing and where we were going and had been begging Jared all afternoon to tell me. It had gotten to the point where he begged Sam to let him go on patrol so that he could get away from me as that was the one place he was allowed that I wasn't. I grumbled when he'd gone as he was my distraction to stop me from thinking about the date.
The doorbell sounded and as I was the only one in the house (because Dad was fishing with Billy – Jake's dad), I answered. Sam stood there looking completely irresistible in a white shirt and a pair of jeans. He had a bunch of daffodils in his hand which he offered me as he kissed my cheek.
'Hey, you look gorgeous this evening.' He said. 'These are for you.'
'Thanks, you look good too, thanks for the flowers. Come in, I'll just put these in a vase.'
'Okay, how was your day?'
'Long, I guess you heard from Jared that I was bugging him?'
He chuckled. 'Yeah, I'm still not gonna tell you where we're going.' I pouted. 'And that pout won't work on me missy.'
'Hmph.'
'Come on, we need to get to our destination for the evening.'
We walked out the house hand in hand and he opened the door of his truck and helped me in. We drove in silence neither of us saying anything because we didn't need to. My hand in his said it all – we were ready for this. Sam drove us towards the cliffs and I could see candles lighting up the evening sky. We stopped and Sam ran around to open my door for me.
'My lady.' Sam scoffed in a fake English accent.
'Well thank you kind sir.'
'You're very welcome.'
He pulled me towards a blanket that was laid out with an assortment of food and surrounded by candles. The cliff edge was fairly close and I could hear the waves lapping at the bottom.
'You did all this?' I asked in astonishment.
'Yep,' He said very matter of factly. 'even the cooking.'
'Wow.'
He pulled me to sit down next to him and threw an arm over my shoulder. I felt safe and warm.
As we ate, we played 20 questions.
'Favourite colour?' I asked
'Brown.'
'What!? That's a rubbish colour you can't say that.'
'It's beautiful. It's the colour of your eyes.'
'Oh.'
'My go, favourite film?' He asked.
'That's so hard! I love Disney, but I'd probably say Pirates of the Caribbean, you can't go wrong with Johnny Depp and Orlando Bloom dressed as pirates. You?'
'That's such a girl movie! Erm, I'd say Die Hard.'
'That's such a guy movie!'
'That's 'cos I'm a man' He said as he batted his pecs and grunted likea Neanderthal. 'First kiss?'
'It was a boy called Kyle as a dare in 8th grade. Who was yours?'
'Emily. In 10th grade, I was a late developer. And then you, and you've rated highest out of the two.'
I loved that he could tell I was feeling insecure about Emily. He'd been with her since forever and stuck through the phasing to still be with him. If I ever saw her in the street, I'd be avoiding her.
We spent to remainder of the evening feeding each other food as the sun set over the ocean. Sam gave me his jumper after it started to get cooler. I protested, but he claimed that he didn't need it anyway due to his freaky body temperature. He hadn't kissed me yet and I was starting to get agitated. Maybe he didn't want me?
'Hey, what's up? You've gone all quiet?'
'Nothing.' I mumbled, burying my face into his body.
'Yes there is, I can tell. Tell me.'
I sighed. 'Do you not want me?'
'What!? What do you mean?'
'Well you haven't kissed me all night and I was kind of hoping you would?' I asked shyly and highly embarrassed.
'Baby, I haven't kissed you because I want you to be my girlfriend before we kiss again, so, Bella Swan will you be my girlfriend?'
'Yes.'
He leaned in and captured my lips with his. I never believed people when they said that fireworks exploded and stuff when they kissed but I did now. The kiss was similar to our first one but lasted longer and Sam was firmer, not hesitant about rejection. When he pulled away he had a huge grin on his face.
'Hey girlfriend, was that kiss satisfactory?'
'Yes, thank you boyfriend, but we may need to kiss again to be sure.'
He chuckled and leaned in again.
'How about now?'
'That'll do for the time being.'
'We better be getting back, it's getting cold and I don't want you getting sick.' He kissed my hair to show that he was being over protective because he was my boyfriend, not because he was some crazy stalker freak.
'I'll be fine but you're right, we probably should get back. Dad'll be wanting to know that I'm ok.'
'Ok, you doing anything tomorrow?'
'Yeah, I've got to go shopping to get some weather appropriate clothes, my stuff from phoenix won't last long.'
'Well you can keep my jumper, I won't be needing it and I like seeing you in my clothes with my scent all over you.' He said nuzzling my neck.
I pushed him off. 'Okay you caveman, take me home.'
We drove back and as we reached the door, Sam gave me a kiss on the lips. I looked at him for explanation .
'I can't do it while your dad's there can I? I'll see you the day after tomorrow.'
'Ok. Bye.'
I walked into my house with his kisses lingering on my lips.
Hope you all enjoyed that. They're too cute.
If you review, Sam will give you his hoodie.
