What happened previously in this story: Our Miss Bella meets the stunning doctor Edward lol, after lot's of miss leaded hopes e.g Tanya, dog bites and miss bella thinking Edward was guy our couple have finally broken the ice with the first date. But what is going to happen now Esme is in the story lol...
Edward's POV before and during the date:
I can't believe they tried to call me in this morning! I love the money I get for working overtime, but today was going to be my first date with Bella and I didn't want to reschedule.
I didn't really need the money, but I was saving up for a future. I had often dreamed of a big house with a lovely wife to greet me when I came home and I definitely wanted children, but those dreams didn't start to come true until I met Bella, the sparks were enough to make my heart race every time we touched, and I just hoped Bella felt the same way.
After one of the many dogs Bella so enjoys walking bit me, I was sure I would never hear from her again and not from lack of trying, believe me.
Pulling out of my thoughts I glanced at the clock and noticed that I only had thirty minutes until my first date with Bella and there was no way I was going to be late.
I took a quick shower and got dressed before running my hands through my, often unmanageable, bronze locks, then hit the road.
As I was driving, I turned my mind to the stubborn little tiger called Bella. Every time we talked, she would ask where we were going and when I wouldn't say she would try to trick me then use her pleading voice to try to get some answers.
Luckily, I didn't cave. I had somehow managed to keep where we were going a secret and I was very proud of myself for that.
I lost all track of time and before I knew it, I was standing at Bella's door ringing her doorbell.
Not even a minute passed before Bella pulled the door open with a wide smile on her face, she looked stunning as always. She was wearing a light blue pair of faded jeans with a midnight blue t-shirt and a thin midnight blue cardigan. The midnight blue complimented her skin in every way she looked too perfect for words.
"Good evening Bella," I greeted, reaching for her hand and laying a soft kiss on her knuckles.
"Hi," she stuttered in return as my green eyes met her deep brown ones.
"Are you ready?" I asked suddenly feeling nervous. What would I do if something went wrong tonight and Bella decided she didn't want to see me again? I thought in a panic. I quickly pushed those thoughts aside, however, when I saw that Bella was just as nervous as I was.
"Yeah," she squeaked softly, taking a deep breath to calm down.
"Good," I answered, flashing the smile that made her knees weak and her breathing uneven.
I reached out for her hand, grasped it gently in my own and we made our way out the front door.
I waited while Bella locked up and we were off. I insisted on holding the door for Bella because my mother raised me to treat women with respect.
When we were in the car, I let Bella choose the radio station we were going to listen to hoping I would learn something new about her. Of course I did, we both adored classical music.
"So where are we going?" she asked softly. She gave me a cute puppy dog expression, but I didn't come all this way to cave now. Maybe I could give her a clue so she didn't get too upset.
"Oh no you don't, this is a surprise and I promise you'll like it Bella," I replied with confidence, but I was wavering.
"So how was work?" she asked suddenly.
I smiled grateful for the change of subject.
"Okay I guess. I love what I do, but one of my patients died today and it hit home," I explained, clenching the steering wheel tightly.
"I'm sorry," she whispered, gently brushing my knuckles with her hand.
"Thank you Bella," I replied as sparkling fairy lights and the smell of greasy foods of all kinds greeted us. I quickly found a parking space and waited to see Bella's reaction.
I wasn't disappointed. Bella was staring out my car window in utter shock.
"We're going to the fair?" she asked excitedly. I let out a carefree chuckle at the happiness in her voice.
"Yeah I guess you like the idea," I replied playfully as we both got out the car and started making our way to the entrance.
"Whatever gave you that idea," she replied with a bright smile.
"Oh I don't know maybe it's the smile on your face, it's like you just tasted pizza or ice cream for the first time," I responded cheekily.
I quickly paid for the tickets hoping that Bella wouldn't object because I knew I wanted to pay for all our dates together.
"What ride would you like to go on first?" I asked once we were inside.
"How about the bumper cars," she suggested. I guess she must have noticed it had a short line.
"Okay," I replied, taking hold of her hand once again and pulling her into the queue for the bumper cars.
"Are you planning to share a car or do you want to ride separately?" the guy running the ride asked when we reached the front of the line.
"Together please," I replied, wrapping my arm around Bella's waist so that this guy didn't get any ideas about my girl.
"Okay pick a car," the guy said. I noticed the way he ran his eyes over Bella's body and the way she clung to my side. All I wanted to do was punch the loser for even looking at Bella.
"Thank you," I snarled, "for nothing," I muttered under my breath once we were out of hearing range. I pulled her closer than kissed her forehead in what I hoped was a comforting way.
"After you Bella," I said, helping her into the car before taking my place on the driver's side.
"How come you get to drive?" she asked.
"Because I can drive better," I replied confidently, reminding myself of her clumsy tendencies.
After a few minutes, the ride was over. It was fun, but I did get a little upset when someone smashed into Bella's side of the car. I looked her over, but she just laughed and assured me she was fine.
Next up was the ghost train and I have to say I really enjoyed that because it gave me the chance to pull Bella closer. I claimed that I was protecting her, but I was really just enjoying the sparks I felt being near her.
We also rode on a ride that was similar to a teacups ride, but the circle was bigger and it moved a lot faster. Then we went on the Round up, Graviton, Scrambler and a lot more.
I felt the need to get Bella a gift so that she would always remember our first date, so I dragged her along to the games. She started pouting after losing the water pistol game for the third time.
She pouted even more when I won on the first try, but she stopped when I gave her the giant teddy bear I won.
Bella looked amazing carrying around the bear that I hoped would be the first of many gifts I gave her.
We were both having so much fun that we completely lost track of time. It was almost 9:00 o'clock now.
"Would you like to get something to eat now Bella?" I asked as we walked by a few food stalls.
"That would be nice, thank you Edward," she replied happily.
While she sat down, I went to order for us, but when I got there, I realized that I didn't know what to get her, so I just ordered us two large Cokes, two fries, two chicken wraps and a large side of nachos.
When Bella asked, I claimed that I didn't want us to be hungry so I bought it in a spur of the moment decision.
We actually managed to finish the food off so Bella's worries were for nothing.
"What can I say I'm a growing boy," I laughed as I watched her looking at the tray with wide eyes. I then patted my stomach, pulled Bella close once again and started leading us to the exit while she clutched the bear I had won her.
Once we were finally back, in the warm Volvo, Bella gave me a soft kiss on the cheek that made me want to fly.
"Wow! What that was for?" I asked in amazement.
"That was for giving me one of the best nights of my life Edward! Thank you," Bella stated, pulling her seatbelt on.
"You're welcome," I mumbled, reaching up to touch the cheek that Bella had just kissed.
I didn't want the night to end, but I had no choice. It was getting late and I didn't want Bella getting sick because she didn't get enough sleep.
All too soon, I pulled onto Bella's street and felt a strange silence fill the car. I noticed that she fought her way out of her seatbelt before quickly opening the passenger side door.
Why is she in such a hurry to leave? I wondered. I felt a moment of panic before she turned around to face me.
"Thank you Edward I had a truly wonderful night," she said breaking the silence.
"Any time Bella" I replied relived.
I returned my gaze to her open car door. I didn't want to let Bella go just yet. As she climbed out my heart cried in despair. When the car door shut, I couldn't take it anymore so I quickly got out of the car and made my way to Bella's side.
As I neared her, I gave her right arm a gentle tug to get her attention.
"Can I please walk you to your door?" I asked nervously, gazing at her shocked expression.
"Of course," she whispered as my heart screamed for joy.
We reached her red wooden door and I felt like it was mocking me because I knew our first date would be over in a few short seconds.
"Thank you again," Bella spoke quietly.
I suddenly wondered if she was just as reluctant to let this night end, as I was which gave me the hope of another fabulous date. She reached into her pocket to search for something.
"Wait Bella can I please try something?" I asked gently.
"S...sure" she stuttered.
I started slowly leaning in until our faces were almost touching. At this, point her eyes glazed over and she took deep shallow breaths.
"Bella," I whispered before my lips claimed hers. The kiss was slow at first, then, built into a sweet yet passionate kiss. She twined her fingers in my hair in a desperate attempt to pull me closer.
After a while, we broke the kiss so that we could breathe, but we still stayed so close to one another that our foreheads were touching.
"Wow," she stated breathlessly.
"Yeah wow," I repeated, gazing into her eyes.
She reached up and pecked me on the lips three more times before we went our separate ways with a promise that we would be in touch with each other again very soon.
As I once again reached my Volvo, my thoughts shifted to dreams that seemed more real now than ever before.
Wow please review I would love to hear some feed back. I love you all ... Tinian I' att is my brilliant beta and I want to thank her for helping and supporting me through everything xoxox
