A/N – Happy Valentine's Day loves!!! First I would like to dedicate this chapter to my hubby. He is my 'beta' for all intents and purposes. I bounce my ideas off him and make him proofread. He usually doesn't complain. I wait till the commercials come on ;) You are my life now. As always, outfits and other links on my profile.

Anyway, enjoy your day and enjoy the story

I woke up this morning on a rollercoaster of emotions. I was high just knowing that I about to spend yet another day with Edward. Tomorrow was our official first date and I was already feeling a little nervous. Not that the date will go bad, I know it will be special because Edward and I get along so well already. I'm more nervous about falling down and taking him with me. I was also excited to play some of my favorite music with Jacob in class. This brings me to the lows. James will be in that class and probably distracting me with his special kind of creepy. And not as low, but not a high, shopping with Alice. That I can deal with if she goes easy on me. She has her own date with that new guy, so she may be a tad bit distracted. That's what I'm betting on.

I decided to dress easy today, jeans and a tee shirt, nothing fancy. I figure I better finalize the plans with Alice before I leave. She should be ready to go too.

"Morning Alice. What's up with this afternoon?"

"Oh Bella, great! I thought you might try and weasel out on me."

"Not this time. I want this date to be great and I have nothing to wear. I know that you know best and I'll never figure out what to wear on my own. Besides, I know you'll be looking for yourself, right?"

"Definitely. So, should I meet you at school or here?"

"Here, there's no need to take two cars. I can drive if you want."

"Thanks Bells but you know I never pass up a chance to drive my baby."

Alice laughed her little tinkling bell laugh and headed for the door. We called a goodbye to Rose who was leaving an hour after us and I followed Alice out to our cars. I was really excited to get to school, who ever said that in life, and see Edward. He was really starting to be the highlight of my everyday and I missed him every night. I think if this date goes well it will just solidify the feelings that I have and maybe I won't feel as overwhelmed about them. I could only hope that he feels the same way about me. I won't tell him how I feel until I know that he at least feels remotely the same. I'm not a kid so I know that too much emotion too fast can scare some guys away.

I pulled into the school lot and I could see the familiar silver Volvo and the bronze hair blowing in the light wind. Edward was waiting for me to arrive outside today. That was new, he usually just met me in class. I'm not complaining, the more time together the better.

EPOV

I knew when I got up this morning I was going to get to school early to meet Bella at her car. She seemed a little skittish yesterday and I'm not sure why. I guess she'll tell why when she's ready but until then, I'll feel better knowing that she's not alone. Besides, what can be better than seeing Bella a little earlier than usual? If I have my way, I'll see her every day. I grabbed us some coffee and figured I'd be able to see her better if I just stayed in one place. Five minutes later I was rewards with her presence as I saw her walking my way.

"Good morning beautiful. Got your favorite."

"Thanks Edward. You didn't have to meet me out here. What's the occasion?"

"Do I need an occasion to walk you to class?"

"I guess not. I'm not complaining."

"Neither am I. Let's get going then."

I reached out and grabbed Bella's bag and handed her her coffee. We talked on the way to class and I longed to just grab her hand but I didn't want to be presumptuous. She asked me where we were going tomorrow, again and I wouldn't tell her, again. She will be so surprised. I finalized all of my plans this morning with my brothers and helped them with theirs. I hope that we all have a good time and we all get along someday. I hope to be with Bella a while and if Jasper and Emmet's late night calls are any indication, so are they.

Our first two classes together are always the same. We go, we listen, and we take notes. All the while we sneak glances and sometimes I work on the composition that has been in my head since I met Bella. I think I'll get it on paper and work on it for my final performance.

At the end of class I walked Bella to her final class of the day. It was in a different location because of the need for the pianos. I plan on meeting Bella here at the end of class too so I can get her safely back to her car. I still want to know what's going on in there but I won't press it, yet.

"So, I'll meet you here after you class?"

"You don't have to, but it would be nice."

She bit her lip in that way she does when she's feeling shy. I don't think she realizes how that drives me crazy. I want to just suck on that lip myself.

"It would be my pleasure."

She smiled and I could detect a hint of relief in her eyes. I know I'm making the right decision by sticking close to her and this class. I gave her a hug goodbye, mostly just to have some contact with her body, and turned to leave when she walked away.

I was so glad that Edward agreed to meet me here after class. I didn't want to seem needy, but I didn't like being alone with this guy. Jacob was great but I didn't want to give him the wrong impression by spending too much time with him. Next week's practices were going to be hard enough without this extra time together. Jacob was already in class and sitting at a piano by the window.

"Hey Jake. How are you? What did you bring?"

"Hey Bella, someone had their coffee this morning." Ha Ha smartass.

"Yeah, yeah, yeah. Maybe I did but I'm pumped to play today. So, what did you bring?"

"I wasn't sure which way to go so I brought my favorite classical compositions, Bach, Mozart, Schubert. And I brought my modern favorites, Alicia Keys, John Legend and of course Stevie."

"Those sound amazing. Someone's into R&B huh?"

"I grew up with it. Soul music, in my opinion, has the best modern piano music around. What did you bring?"

"I didn't bring any of my classical, but I brought my favorite Green Day songbook, Onerepublic and Sara Bareilles." I hope we can play some of both. We have totally different tastes in music. This should be fun.

"Well I know Green Day, let's start with One Republic. I don't know them well."

I opened up to Stop and Stare and had Jacob play that while I showed him how to set the correct rhythm. He caught on to that pretty quick. It's not that difficult so we moved on to his Ordinary People and I must say, John Legend is a musical genius. That was the most difficult modern piece I have ever played. I loved it. I will definitely play that for Edward one day. After a lot of practice.

James only came around twice to watch us each play and offered some constructive criticism. I did feel the stares, he didn't say anything inappropriate. Lauren didn't even come by to bother us. I'm not letting my guard down but there are a lot of people really close together to make a scene today.

Jacob and I packed up and began to leave class. I left before he did assuring him that I wouldn't be alone. Still not ready to tell him. If this date goes well, I'll tell him on Monday. He shouldn't have to worry about me. Edward was right where I left him before class. If I didn't know better I would think he never left. As soon as I walked to him, he reached out and grabbed my bag. We walked to my car and I told him about the music I had and what I played today. He'd heard everything I told him but hadn't played it. I told him he could call me tonight but I might be held hostage by my roommate. He laughed but that shit is not funny. Alice will be the death of me tonight.

I got home before Alice and made us a little snack before we left. She and Rose should be here pretty soon. Just as I was sitting down to munch on my chips and salsa the door opened and my girls came in, giggling like school children.

"What's so funny?" I wanna be in on the joke.

"Nothing. We're just excited about actually having dates that we actually want to go on." Rose stated with a smile and a small sigh.

"Yeah, so let's get a move on. Ohh, food!"

You'd never believe Alice could put it away like she does and stay so small. But whatever, at least she likes my food. We got going after Alice and Rose finished and headed to the mall. I swear we went to every store in there aside from Foot Locker and Dick's! I was exhausted. But I was ecstatic about my outfit. I told Alice that Edward said to dress casually and I finally convinced her to let me wear some nice jeans and a top. They are, in fact, skinny jeans, but I don't mind that. I would never tell Alice, but they are my new favorites. I paired them with a really cute pale cream top with ruffles across the collarbone and a bow on the neck. I could wear them with my Coach flats and matching bag Alice made me buy. I could be casual and still sexy.

Alice found herself a really cute, really short purple dress with a black v neck strap holding it up. She picked up a pair of purple satin strappy heels that I couldn't wear if you paid me. She said she knew that purple bag would come in handy one day.

Rose went with the whole sexy librarian look. She paired a pencil skirt with a polka dot top that had a black band from the breast down the showed off all of her assets. (A/N – all outfits on my profile)

We finally headed home to, as Alice put it, prepare our plan of attack. It was pamper time and that meant Bella Barbie yet again. This is the fun part though. Face masks, toe painting, romantic comedies and junk food. By the time we went to bed, I was more relaxed and able to just go to bed and have sweet dreams of my day to come.

EmPOV (the next day)

I am nervous. What does that mean? I never get nervous. It didn't matter how many games I played, how many parties I went to, how many times I was the center of attention, I didn't get nervous. Now, now, I decide to get nervous. I'm guessing it's because I've never actually planned a date around a girl before. I usually just find something fun to do, I mean who wants a boring date? But Rosalie is different. I want her to have fun but realize I care about her interest too. I had Edward help me with the plans, all I had to do is not fuck them up.

I made sure that I got to Rose on time. I stopped at the flower shop to pick up some flowers. Not roses, too predictable. She would like something just as pretty but original. So I got her a dozen pink gerbera daisies. Their pretty like Rose. I walked up to her door, took a deep breath and knocked. When Rose opened the door, I knew, she is my destiny.

RPOV

"There's the door, that must be Emmet. How do I look?" I'd spent the better half of the last 3 hours getting Bella and myself ready. I made sure my hair was bone straight and kept my make up light. Except for the red lipstick, of course. I put on my favorite chain link Manolos before getting the door.

"You look amazing, as always. Have fun and be good." Alice is so silly; of course I will be good. Or good at it. I opened the door and Emmet was standing there holding a bouquet of daisies. Most guys brought roses and that is so predictable. I knew he was different.

"Hi Emmet. Ready to go?"

"Yeah, wow, Rosie, you look amazing. These are for you." Emmet handed me the flowers and I placed them on the counter. I knew Bella would take care of them for me. I'd probably just kill them and I want them forever.

We walked out to his jeep and he held the door for me like a regular gentleman. I was curious to see if we'd do the typical dinner and movie bit. I secretly hoped not even though anything would be fun with Emmet. We were headed to the art district of town and wondered briefly if Emmet had an artsy side. I wouldn't know how to relate to that. I had no idea how to look at that stuff. We stopped in front of one of the building I've never been in before.

"Where are we Emmet?"

"This is the Crawford Auto Museum. I know that you love cars, so I thought you might enjoy looking at the vintage cars."

Holy crap, he is a keeper. This is amazing

"If you don't want to stay, we can go someplace else…"

"It's perfect." I interrupted him, not wanting him to get discouraged. "I can't wait to get inside!" I nearly squealed. What is happening to me?

The inside of the museum was amazing. There were cars from every era including the first car sold in the US, vintage Harley Davidson, racing planes and carriages. It was amazing. I felt like a kid in the candy store. Emmet listened while I read nearly every plaque, description and article in the place and he just smiled and listened. He took my picture in front of a few of the cars with his phone and told me he'd never seen anyone as happy as I am. We walked and talked about the cars and the plans that I had for my business. I had been working on the plans a little harder since I knew Emmet would be starting a business as well and we could help each other, provided we survive dating.

"End of the line Rosie, ready for a little dinner?"

"I'm starved." It was nearly nine and I was famished. We headed out to the car and Emmet reached over and grabbed my hand as we walked. We didn't say much just looked at each other. Emmet opened the car door for me as I climbed in and we were off to the next unknown location.

When we pulled up in front of the restaurant, I realized the theme and was, not only impressed, but touched that he put so much thought into my feelings and interest.

"Quaker Steak?"

"Yeah…I figured, you like cars, I like cars, this should make you happy. I just want to show you a good time and get to know you better. I think about you a lot and I want to spend as much time with you as you'll let me."

"Emmet that was the sweetest thing anyone has ever said to me. It means a lot that you care about my feelings." I stared into his eyes a moment, seeing that he was being sincere and seeing a fair amount of happiness and a little bit of lust. I couldn't help myself. I climbed over the center console and brushed my lips against his. Emmet responded by caressing my cheek and leaning further into me, deepening our kiss. Emmet's tongue licked my bottom lip, asking for entrance which I granted immediately. Our tongues danced, fighting for dominance as I let him control my movements with his hands. We only broke apart to gasp for air and looked into each other's eyes.

"We better get inside. We can finish this later." Emmet said to me with a huge grin and one raised eyebrow like The Rock. I agreed, only because I was so hungry, but I was going to have Emmet for desert.

Dinner was great; the restaurant was so much fun, based on motorsports. We talked more and laughed a lot and we felt each other up under the table. It was so romantic.

"Hey, we should go back to my place. My roommates aren't home and I have some…desert, you might like, if you want it?" Take the hint Emmet.

"I want nothing more than to taste your desert." Okay, that is hot. Emmet paid the bill and we practically ran out of there and headed back to my place. It's only about 10:30 so no one should be home yet, I guess. We parked a ways down the block, there was no parking available in front of the house for some reason. No matter. I was on cloud nine. We got to the door and walked in. I turned on the light in the kitchen and told Emmet to have a seat on the couch. I decided to make an ice cream sundae for us. It has all the sexy foods, whipped cream, cherries, without being forced. I noticed Emmet did make himself at home. He'd put in a DVD and taken off his shoes.

"Feeling quite at home are we?" I teased him.

"It's your fault. You make me feel this way, like I belong where you are. OH, is that ice cream!"

He is so adorable. "It is. Can I trust you with it while I change into something more comfortable?"

"I make no guarantees. But I will try very hard. "He emphasized the 'very hard' part and I knew he was a goner. I ran in my room and put on Juicy Couture shorts and hoodie. I was covered up but left little to the imagination. When I came back out, to my surprise, the ice cream was still there. I turned the light off and curled up on the couch and grabbed the bowl and spoon and gave him my most seductive look.

"Open wide." Emmet opened his mouth, well, it's been open since I came back in the room. He took the ice cream from me, his eyes never leaving mine. We ate like this, occasionally licking the drips off each other's mouths, until there was nothing left but the cherry. Emmet took the cherry out and rubbed it against my lips. I darted out my tongue to taste it, but not to take it in, yet. I wanted him so bad, I didn't think I would last much longer. He let the cherry linger in front of me and I curled my tongue around it and took it in my mouth.

Emmet placed his hand on my cheek and pulled me into the most passionate kiss I have ever felt. I wrapped my arms around him and pressed my body as close as possible. I could feel his hardness growing between us, getting me so aroused, I barely noticed I'd pressed him down on the couch. I rubbed myself against trying to get friction against my core when I needed it most. Emmet's hand wandered my body bringing me closer to him as her grabbed my ass, barely covered by my shorts.

I sat up on top of Emmet to unzip my hoodie when the light snapped on. I looked nervously to the door just as Bella walked in.

"Holy shit Rose! What are you doing here? You scared the shit out of me."

"Me! What about you, what are you doing home so soon?"

"It's after midnight. Did you lose track of time?" Bella wiggling her eyebrows at me.

"Yes, actually, I did." Two can play the smug game. At least I was about to get some. "Well, since you're here, meet my date, Emmet." I climbed off him and saw that Bella was not alone. This must be Edward. He was good looking, not like Emmet, but I wouldn't kick him out of bed. There was something familiar about his eyes. Whatever. Emmet sat up to meet Bella and he froze.

"Edward!? What the hell are you doing here?"

A/N – Don't hate me! I decided to stop with the cliffy and Rose's date. Next chapter will be Edward and Bella's date and how they ended up at the house. The chapter was getting long and I want to go 'back in time' so to speak.

I grew up in Cleveland, so I used the Crawford Auto museum and Quaker Steak and Lube, eventhough they're not on the West Coast. The museum is nice, I had prom there. It's so Rosalie. You can see a link to them on my profile.

I hope you enjoyed the first date and enjoy your Valentine's Day. Be my Valentine and push that little button down there that say REVIEW and I'll love you for life!
