Chapter 9 Forks, School and a Gun

"Edward make sure Charlie has put away his gun before we tell him, I know he is going to think I'm pregnant and he will shoot you."

I laughed so hard at that while Bella glared at me. "It's okay love, I'm bullet proof remember? I'm sure Charlie will be happy for us."

She continued to glare at me like I was insane. "Edward that's not funny." I smiled. "Bella you really do look like an angry kitten when your upset." She elbowed me, I hope she didn't bruise herself.

By the time we pulled into her driveway her anger had turned into nervousness. "I will be right beside you Bella stop worrying."

I helped Bella bring her things into her room and put them away.

Charlie wasn't at home yet, there was a note on the fridge that said 'be back at six gone fishing.'

Bella was in the kitchen cooking when Charlie pulled up to the driveway. I thought for a moment she was going to hyperventilate.

"Bells you home?" Charlie called from the doorway. Bella went to him and gave him an awkward hug. "I missed you dad." Charlie flushed a little, not used to being greeted like that.

"It's good to have you back Bell's did you have fun? Oh hey Edward." I nodded "Hey Charlie." I replied. "It was amazing dad I had a wonderful time."

Bella turned back toward the kitchen. "I'll be done with dinner soon dad."

I froze looking at Charlie who was looking at Bella's hand or more exactly Bella's ring on her hand.

Charlie's thoughts quickly jumped from thinking 'He got my little girl pregnant to picturing the gun hung on his wall.'

Bella stopped in her tracks hearing Charlie's loud gasp. She looked at him then followed his eye's to her ring.

Charlie quickly turned his gaze to me in an accusing glare. "Do you two have something to tell me?"

"I'm not pregnant dad I swear, Edward just asked me to marry him while we were in Paris and I said yes." 'Oh thank god she's not pregnant.' Charlie thought as he let out a breath.

"Say something dad." Bella pleaded. "Your to young to get married Bell's." I let out a sigh.

"Charlie I love Bella and She for some reason loves me to. We plan to go to collage together next year. I want to marry her after graduation next year. I was brought up to respect woman and I want to do the right thing." I told him honestly.

'Oh crap how do I respond to that, tell them they should go live together in sin? I cant believe my baby is grown up so fast.' Charlie thought. 'At-least they have a year to think about it.'

I knew his hands were tied, what was he going to say really. Take my daughter and go have fun?

"Does Renee know?" Charlie asked. "Yes we told her while we were visiting, she wants you to call her." Bella told him weakly.

Charlie took a deep breath "Okay I will call her after supper, It's hard for me Bell's to think of you as a grown woman, I know you will be eighteen in two week's it's just hard." Charlie grunted out.

"I will always be your little girl dad you know that don't you?" Charlie actually smiled at that.

He turned toward me "Edward I want you to know that I don't have anything against you I think your a good man for my daughter and I really respect your father, Its just you two are so young and I don't want Bella making the same mistakes I did when I was young."

"I do understand Charlie and I swear to you I will always do every thing in my power to keep her happy." I told him with as much sincerity as I could.

"Alright well let's eat I missed your cooking Bell's." Bella let out a sigh in relief.

After diner Charlie was on the phone with Renee for a long time while me and Bella sat embraced on the couch.

"He took the news better then I thought he would, tell me his first thoughts were about me being pregnant and where his gun was right?" I smiled at Bella "Are you sure your not a mind reader to Bella?" She just snorted.

When Charlie came back into the room he let out a resigned sigh.

"Well congratulations you two just remember your both very young to become parents please tell me you are going to wait awhile before making me a grand-paw." Charlie said in a restrained voice.

"There's no need to worry about that dad." Bella told him which reminded me of our next conversation we would have to have.

Charlie turn on a football game and tried to ignore us embraced on his couch for the rest of the evening.

At ten I left to take the car home before going back to Bella's for the night. When I got home everyone greeted me and Esme push me upstairs to see my remodeled bedroom.

Esme really out done herself. She had redecorated my room to match mine and Bella's style. It looked like a place a married couple would live.

And the bathroom was unbelievable. Not only was there a Hugh jacuzzi tub but there was his and her sinks, a walk in shower with thirteen spray nozzles a built in the wall stereo system and candle holders all around the room.

The room itself was painted to look like a view on the beach."WOW!" I told her while giving her a Hugh hug. "The rooms are also now sound proof, I thought you two would enjoy the privacy." Esme told me with a Hugh grin.

She was almost as happy I found Bella as I was. "It's fantastic Esme, Bella will love it." I told her with certainty.

After I described what Esme had done to Bella and My room, she couldn't wait to see it for herself. That would have to wait tho tomorrow was the first day of the new school year.

It was just me, Bella and Alice going this year. Alice had Jaz hack into the school PC's and made sure we all three had the same classes and lunch at the same times.

Bella drove us that morning in her truck "I cant wait to see our room after school Edward." Bella said with a blush. I just grinned like a fool at her I really couldn't wait either.

Alice was driving the new yellow Porch I bought her as thanks for all the help she had given me and Bella over the last year.

"I love this car Edward." She squealed as she joined me and Bella in the parking lot. "I bet your going to miss Jasper this year, Why didn't the two of you start in the same grade?" Bella asked Alice.

"Oh yea I will but you know how hard it is for him locked up with a room for of kids. I didn't want him to suffer anymore then he had to. Besides I have my sister and brother to keep me company." She grinned at us and we both smiled back.

That was right about the time I started picking up the thoughts of Mike Newton. 'Man I thought for sure they would break up over the summer, I sure wish she would dump that freak Cullen.' I growled causing Bella to look at me. "Mike is getting on my nerves."

"Don't tell me he still thinks I would go out with him?" I nodded.

"I don't understand why, I have never gave him a reason to like me."

"You still don't see yourself very clearly Bella." which caused that blush.

We got our schedules And walked hand in hand to our class while Bella quietly talked to Alice.

"Angela its so good to see you again, I see you and Ben made it thru the summer." Bella told her while giving her a hug.

"Hey Bella I missed you hi Edward, Alice." "Hey Angela how would you and Ben like to sit with us at lunch this year." Alice asked her. I picked up in Alice's thoughts that she wanted to get to know Angela. Friend of my friend is my friend too.

Girls are so strange I thought to myself. "Sure Alice that would be great, Jess and Mike broke up over the summer and it's awkward being around one of them without hurting the others feelings." She said in an almost sad tone.

So we was all settled in school again the five of us had our own lunch table while jealous on lookers stared at us.

After school I took Bella home to show her our room, She had about three hours before Charlie would be home.

Bella greeted everyone before going up the stairs. When she seen our room she Gasp. "It's perfect Esme." she said knowing Esme would hear. "I'm glad you like it Bella!" Esme called up.

When she saw the bathroom "Oh my god its beautiful its like something out of a fairy tale." I scooped her up into my arm's

"That must mean you are the princess then." "Oh yes and your my prince." I started to laugh but Bella pressed her lips to mine and the rest of the world vanished.

Bella could not wait to start the bath. She lit the candles and turned on some soothing music. And to my shock started undressing right in front of me. "Bella?" I questioned. She just looked at me and smiled, I swear she dazzled me because the next thing I knew I was undressed as-well.

"Bella your going to be the death of me." I told her in a husky voice. She just laughed a pulled me into the tub. Needless to say Charlie's dinner was late that night.

The two weeks passed and it was Bella's birthday. Alice had charmed Charlie into agreeing to a three night girls sleep over.

As soon as school let out that Friday we had Bella at the house opening presents. "Oh thank-you Rose and Emmett for the IPOD I love it." When she opened mine she burst into tears "Oh Edward its your music you could not have given me anything more beautiful."

Alice had gotten her several outfits from Paris and a simple very pretty wedding dress which they would let me see even tho I already saw it in Alice's mind. " Thank you Alice, Jasper there all beautiful."

Alice squealed and hugged her.

Bella was about to open her last gift from Carlisle and Esme when I saw a vision in Alice's mind and yanked the present from Bella.

Bella looked at me in surprise."Edward?" she questioned. "I'm sorry Bella, Alice saw you cut your finger on the wrapping paper."

If I had ever been thankful of my sisters visions it paled in how thankful I was right now.

Shedding blood in a house full of vampires is not a good ideal.

I opened the gift for her, "Oh thank you Carlisle, Esme. Me and Edward will use them on spring break." It was two round trip tickets to Jacksonville Florida.

After her little party we all loaded up and headed to the airport. Me and Bella would be getting married in the morning at a chapel Alice picked out in Las Vegas.

This was the first time Bella had ever been to Las Vegas, She was amazed at all the giant hotels. We had booked rooms at the Excalibur hotel. It looks like and is decorated like a giant castle.

Me and Bella had the honeymoon suite complete with a two person heart shaped jacuzzi tub.

I carried Bella over the threshold to our room "Edward we aren't married yet." she said while giggling. "Patrice makes perfect." I told her with a smirk.

For diner the whole family went the their diner show. They bring out everyone a whole Cornish hen with vegetables and drinks. The seats are like a stadium only with a table in front of you. The show itself has jousting riding on horseback and sword fighting.

Emmett was really getting into it. The stadium is divided into six sections and each section has a team associated with them we had the Black knights team in our section.

The louder your team cheers for their knights the better they preform so Emmett was hooting and yelling at the top of his lungs.

In the end the white knight beat the black knight and we had to hold Emmett down from going after the poor guy.

"That was so much fun Edward I have never been to anything like that before." I smiled. "I'm glad you had fun love would you like to walk around the city and look around for awhile?" She smiled I would love to.

We walked from one end of the strip to the other checking out all the different hotels. When we got to our hotel we watched Jasper playing poker for awhile. He was an excellent poker player. Being able to feel other peoples emotions gave him a Hugh advantage. He was up sixty thousand. Bella was amazed.

"Wow I can see why you don't worry about money." I grinned.

"Bella he is just fooling around, with Alice and the stock market money means nothing to us, she can make twenty million in twenty minutes, which is a good thing with the way she likes to shop."

Bella stared at me, I guess to see if I was joking. "Wow." Is all she said. Emmett and Rose were playing craps. They were up a few thousand themselves. Carlisle and Esme was in the lounge dancing.

We went back to our room Bella was exhausted after the night of activities.

That morning Alice was knocking on our door. She dragged Bella to her room to get her ready. I was wearing a blue tux Alice had picked out. Emmett was my best man and Alice was Bella's maid of honor. Carlisle would be walking Bella down the isle.

When I got to the chapel I was surprised, Alice had really done some research. It was not a typical chezzy Las Vegas wedding chapel but instead and really cozy looking place with lots of flowers and stained glass like a real church.

I stood at the alter with Emmett at my side and Jasper sitting in the front pews. "Are you nervous Edward? A hundred an four years is a long time to be single." Emmett asked me.

"No not at all I cant wait to make Bella my wife." He grinned. "Yea Bella has hidden our prudish brother and replaced him with a love sick fool." Emmett joked. I smiled "A happy love sick fool dear brother."

The music started and when I lay-ed my eye's on Bella the rest of the world disappeared. She was so beautiful in her long flowing white dress, I couldn't tare my eyes away.

When she got to me Carlisle placed her hand in mine and the preacher started talking while our eyes remained locked on each other.

Emmett broke my gaze with a push I turned to him then understood. "I do." I quickly said I had been so engrossed with Bella I didn't even hear the preacher ask. Emmett handed me the wedding band.

"And do you Isabella Marie Swan take this man to be your husband? Will you love him, comfort him, and forsaking all other remain true to him forever?" "I do."

"With this ring I thee wed, and all my worldly goods I thee endow." I said as I slipped the ring on her finger.

"I now pronounce you Man and Wife, you may kiss the bride."

We embraced in a passionate kiss until the coughs from our family broke our kiss and forced us to release one other so they could congratulate us both.

Carlisle presented Bella with a wedding gift. It was a platinum bracelet with all our names and the Cullen crest. "Oh Thank-you all for welcoming me to the family I love you all." Bella said with tears running down her cheeks.

"We all love you too Bella thank-you for making our family complete." Esme told her while hugging her.

I picked my wife up and carried her to the Limo while Emmett pounded me with rice and everyone laughed.

I carried Bella thru the threshold of our room at the hotel once again.

"I'm going to start a bath Mr. Cullen." Bella said with a smile. "I will join you shortly Mrs. Cullen." I said with an even bigger smile.

I gave Bella a few minutes to to settle in. I made sure to keep the Contraceptive devices Carlisle gave me in a convenient place.

We started in the jacuzzi tub kissing and embracing each other until neither of us could wait any longer and I picked her up and carried her to the bed.

Making love with Bella was the euphoric moment of my life. I never imagined such absolute ecstasy could have existed. Bella's unbridled passion completely overwhelmed me. As we lay there with Bella sleeping, I once again thanked the maker for Bella being in my life.

The next morning Bella asked "Edward why am I covered in feather's?" I grinned sheepishly. "I sorta bit a pillow or two."

We spent the rest of our three day trip Making love and just being in love, I never wanted time to just stop and stand still more then at this moment.

As we boarded the plane back to forks I had to keep reminding myself that our life as husband and wife was just starting.

That night after we had got back, while I lay in Bella's bed I asked.

"Bella how quite do you think we can be?" Bella blushed and whispered "Quite enough my dear husband." before pulling me into a passionate kiss.

The rest of our week was spent in the same fashion. On Friday night at my house I was planing to tell Bella about the information we learned on vampire conceiving. She had yet to question my use of condoms but I knew she was curious.

"Bella we need to talk about something important, what would you say if I told you it was possible to have a child with me?"

"What? How? I didn't think that was possible for us?" I took a deep breath and began.

"We met a human /vampire hybrid while out hunting. He had a human mother and a vampire father he also had three sisters by different human mothers. They are born babies but grow full grown in seven years and they are immortal, they stop aging at what appears to be late teens. They can live off blood or human food and they blend in with humans better then we can."

I stopped to give her time to think about that information and ask any questions she may have.

"So you saying it is possible for me to bare our child and that child would be immortal and live forever?" She looked deep in thought.

"Yes it is possible but there is a downside, the child growing in your womb would be very strong, much stronger then your own human body, It would be a difficult delivery requiring immediate vampire venom to repair the damage the child would cause. You could die Bella." My voice broke on that last word.

"The baby grows at such an excel-rated rate your body will be under a change like a full nine month pregnancy but in only thirty days. It would be painful." I wanted her to know all the risk.

"That is a lot to think about Edward." Bella said to me quietly.

"Of course I just wanted you to know all the facts Bella that's all."

"Do you want to have a child Edward?" Do I want to have a child?

"That's a difficult question, would I like to raise a child an immortal child with you yes I would. Do I want to chance losing you? No."

"But I could not deny you the right to bare a child if you want to and I will fully support either decision, but we have months to think about it Bella." She nodded and went and started a bath.

Time moves at an exhilarated rate when you are euphoric the months ticked by like hours.

October November December January

I couldn't help but put in the months, that was such sad pages to read in Stephenie Meyer's New Moon. Anyway Jacob makes an appearance again soon. I hope everyone is enjoying my version of the story.
