Chapter 10

BPOV

It has been two months since I realized that I loved Rosalie and I still haven't told her yet. I'm moved into my house finally. I decided to just take my furniture from the apartment. I figured that if Rosalie moved in with me then we can go get stuff together.

Tonight is the night though. I'm going to tell Rosalie that I love her and that I want her and Sophie to move in with me. I had a long conversation with my mom about this because I was freaking out that Rosalie would say no that it is too soon for her. My mom told me that if Rosalie says not right now to moving in with me, but says she loves me then that is all that matters.

Rosalie and I have been having more and more sleepovers at her house. I didn't tell Rosalie that I was moving so I didn't want to bring her over to the house. Almost every weekend for the last month the dogs and I were staying at Rosalie's. Angela had gotten all moved into her dorms and was watching Sophie tonight for us. She still has another week before her classes start and her parents were here in Houston long enough for her to move in and that was it.

I have Alice, Victoria, Esme and Angela take Rosalie out to the spa and shopping for a nice dress for tonight. I decided to make reservations at a place called Morton's The Steakhouse at seven o'clock tonight. I told them to text me the color of Rosalie's dress so I can make sure that I have a shirt to match it perfectly. I also told them to try to steer her more towards a blue, red or black shirt since those were the colors that I brought with me. A few hours later, Victoria texted me that Rosalie found a blue dress.

I was sitting at Rosalie's apartment watching the dogs and the kids play on the floor together with Carlisle. I brought my PlayStation 3 over so Carlisle and I wouldn't be bored. We were playing another game of Madden when the girls finally came home. After Rosalie put her bags in the bedroom she came over and sat on my lap. There was still about three hours before we had to leave to make our reservations so we all sat around and talked for a little while.

"Did you have a good time?" I asked her.

"Yes, thank you for the spa day; I really needed it." She tells me with a kiss on the cheek.

"Anything for you babe."

About an hour and a half before we have to leave, Alice and Esme pull Rosalie into her bedroom so she can start getting ready. I decide to go ahead and start to change, so I grab my bag and head to Sophie's room to get changed. I put on my black dress pants, my dress boot (in case you can't tell, I like my boots), and my black tank top. Once I double check to make sure my hair still looked ok pulled up in its ponytail, I decide to wait to put my dress shirt on until it's almost time to go. When I get back into the living I pick my controller back up so we can continue our game.

"So are you nervous about tonight?" Victoria asks me.

"You have no idea. I just hope that she says it back and wants to move in with me. How did you make it through the night that you told Alice?" I ask her.

"I drank too much and then slurred it out." She laughed.

"What about you Carlisle?" Victoria asks him.

"I kinda just blurted it out to her before bed one night. I couldn't believe that I had let it slip but she was happy about it none the less. I don't think you should worry so much. You can see it in the way that Rosalie looks at you that she loves you and I'm sure she is just as nervous right now, but I bet she doesn't know what is going to happen." He says.

After our game is done I look at the clock and realize that it is almost time to go. I grab my blue long sleeve shirt, slide it on and button it. Once it is tucked in I roll my sleeves up and decide to wear my tie after all. Once I'm completely dressed I hear Rosalie's bedroom door open. When I turn around to see her, my mouth just drops open.

Her blond hair is pulled into some type of bun that sits at the base of her neck. The dress she picked looked sexy as all hell on her. It was a navy blue dress, like my shirt, that was strapless and came down almost to her knees. On her feet she had on these black fuck me heels on and I could feel myself start to get hard. You need to calm down. I tell myself trying to will down my erection.

My mind finally starts working again and I walk over to Rosalie, grab her hand and plant a gentle kiss on the back of it.

"You look absolutely beautiful. There are not enough words to describe your beauty." I tell her. I can see a faint blush coloring across her face.

"You look quite handsome yourself." She tells me. All I can do is smile at her.

"Are you ready to go?" I ask her.

"Whenever you are."

"Okay guys, we will see you all later." We wave goodbye to everyone and head out to my car. I open the door for her and help her in the car.

Once I'm in the car, I start and we are on our way. It takes almost 45 minutes to get there. I have the valet park my car and I escort Rosalie inside.

"Hi. How can I help you?" the hostess asks.

"Hi. Reservation for Swan please." I tell her. I hope this time goes better than our first date. I think to myself.

"Okay, your table is ready. Right this way please."

"Thank you." I tell her once we reach our table. It's positioned in the back corner so we have a bit of privacy. I pull out Rosalie's chair for her and then sit down myself.

"This place is really nice." Rosalie says.

"Yeah, but they have some of the best steaks that I've ever had." I tell her. I had been here on a couple of occasions.

"They should for these prices." She says.

"Don't worry about price, just get what you want."

"Hi. My name is Ben and I'll be you waiter tonight. What can I get you to drink?" our waiter asks. Ben is a guy that looks to be about 6'2" and is almost as built as Emmett. I wonder if he would like to do security. I think to myself. One of my best security guards is leaving and I need to replace him.

"Can I get a glass of Moscato d'Asti please?" Rosalie asks.

"Okay and for you ma'am?" he asks me.

"Can I get a Budweiser and a Coke please?" I ask. I figure one beer won't hurt at the beginning of dinner.

"Alright, can I get you guys any appetizers?"

"Can I get the Broiled Sea Scallops?" Rosalie orders.

"And I'll get the Jumbo Shrimp Alexander." I order.

"Alright I'll put this in and then bring your drinks too you." Ben says as he walks away.

"Well at least he is polite." Rosalie says.

"Yeah, I was worried that this would turn out worse than our first date because you look even more amazing then that night." I tell her.

"So I take it you enjoyed the spa then?" I asked Rosalie after she told me about her day and the appetizers arrive.

"Yeah, I haven't been in so long that I forgot how relaxing it could be."

"Well whenever you want to go just let me know and I'll send you."

"I don't know. I should save up my money and go again. I don't want you paying for all my stuff like you did today." She tells me.

"But if I want to then let me please. I have more money than I know what to do with and I'm getting even more in a couple of months from the other part of my inheritance." I tell her. I finally broke down last month and told Rosalie about my grandmother passing and the money she left me. That was how I was able to start the clubs and move here without any problems. I got the first half when I turned eighteen I get the other half of it when I turn twenty five.

"Okay, okay. I give up trying to convince you otherwise."

"Finally!" I exclaim.

"Are you ready to order dinner yet or would you like a few more minutes?" Ben asks. He has been really nice so far.

"Yes. Can I get the Signature Cut Prime New York Strip medium well with cream corn and Lyonnaise Potatoes on the side please?" I ask.

"Alright and for you ma'am?"

"Can I get the Honey-Chili Glazed Salmon Fillet with the Jumbo Baked Potato on the side please?" Rosalie orders.

"Can you also get her another glass of wine please?" I order for Rosalie. It looked like she wanted another glass but was trying to make this one last.

After dinner and desert are served, which we both had the Morton's Legendary Hot Chocolate Cake; I decided that it was time to head out to the house to start the main purpose of this dinner.

After I give Ben my card for the bill, I tell Rosalie to wait by the door for me. I wanted to talk to Ben about maybe coming to work for me.

"Thank you Ben. Now I've got a question for you. Are you happy working here?" I ask him.

"It pays the bills. I'm a student so it isn't too bad." He tells me.

"How old are you?"

"21."

"How would you like to do security work?"

"I would love that, but where?"

"Have you ever heard of the club Crazy Wolf?"

"Yeah it's a strip club."

"Well I'm one of the owners and one of our security guys is leaving and we need a replacement. Do you think you can handle it?"

"Yeah, definitely. When do you need me to start?"

"I would like to start your training as soon as possible. The guy is leaving in two weeks so I want to make sure you are ready. Can you come by tomorrow and start?"

"Yeah. Thanks so much."

"What was that about?" Rosalie asked when I reached her.

"I'll tell you on the way to the next place." I tell her as I grab her hand. Once the valet brings my car around we get in and I start heading towards my house. It's a thirty minute drive to my new house from downtown so we have plenty of time.

"So what did you talk to Ben about?" Rosalie asks five minutes into the drive.

"I asked him if he wanted to come and replace Derek. He leaves in two weeks and I need someone now to start training. Ben said that he would love to do it and starts his training tomorrow." I tell her.

"That's nice of you."

"Well it benefits me too, but at the same time he didn't look as happy as he tried to appear to be with his job."

Once the conversation was over, we spent the rest of the car ride in silence. The closer we got to the house, the more nervous I got. I didn't plan out how I wanted to say the things I needed to say. I wanted to just go by the moment and wing it.

"Why are we all the way out here?" Rosalie asked when we were almost to my house.

"You'll see." I smirk at her.

Rosalie slides over in the seat to sit next to me and I wrap my arm around her. About five minutes late, I pull up to the gate in front of my house. I have about two acres of land in which my house sits in the middle of. After I put in my gate code, I pull up to the front of the house. Once I park, I look down to see Rosalie's confused face.

"Whose house is this?" she asks me.

"This is my house. I didn't want you to see it until it was ready. That's why we always spent time at your apartment and not mine. Come on, I want to show you around."

Once I help her out of the car, I grab her hand and we walk to the front door. I flip the light switch on and let go of her hand so she can look around while I follow her. She looks astonished by the house. We finally make it to the bedroom where I planned to tell her. Once we are inside, I pull her over to the couch in the room and we sit next to each other. I grab her hand, turn towards her and look her in the eyes. She looks nervous sitting there waiting for me to say something.

"Why did you show me this house?" she asks after I have failed to say anything.

"Because this is my home and I wanted to see it." I tell her.

"Okay." We sit in more silence until I finally get my thoughts together.

"Rosalie I've been going over this in my mind trying to find the perfect way to say this to you but the best way I feel to say it is to just come out and say it. I know that we have been together for four months now and I just want you to know that I love you." I finally say. Rosalie just sits there quietly while looking at me and I start to get nervous.

"I know you may not feel the same way, but I needed you to know that I do love you and want to be there for both you and Sophie. Please say som-" I get cut off when Rosalie smashes her lips to mine in a searing kiss. She finally breaks away from me with tears in her eyes.

"I love you too Bella. So much so that it scares me. I have never felt this way for anyone ever. I never thought that I would find someone to love me and my daughter the way that you do." She finally says to me. All I can do is smile at her and start to kiss her again. I push her back on the couch and place myself between her legs. We continue to kiss as she pushes me back so she can climb into my lap. I push her dress up her thighs so she can straddle me better.

I break the kiss so I can ask her one more question.

"I have one thing to ask of you." I tell her.

"What is that?" she asks while panting.

"Move in with me." I tell her and she just stares at me in what looks to be disbelief.
