Chapter 10—Edward has a Brain
EPOV
It was the next day at breakfast and I was really excited to see Bella. I had the perfect plan for us today. She is going to love it.
"Jeez Edward, calm down. I'm surprised your not bouncing up and down in your seat by now," Jasper said looking at me with a half smile on his face.
"Sorry, just a little excited I guess," I said shrugging.
"Well calm down before you pee yourself," Emmet said chuckling.
"You would know Emmet," I said smirking as I remember his little 'situation' last night.
He glared at me. "Shut up Edward. It could've been you," he said.
"But it wasn't," I pointed out just as the girls walked into the banquet hall. They quickly headed our way and sat down at our table.
"Morning," Bella said before sitting down next to me.
"Morning. What are your plans for today?" I asked smiling.
She looked at me curiously for a minute and then said, "I'm obviously doing whatever you have planned." I smiled, she knew me so well.
"Good," I said before giving her a quick kiss.
"So…what are we doing?" she asked.
I smiled widely. "It's a surprise," I said simply.
"Oh goody, I love surprises!" she said with fake enthusiasm.
I chuckled, "I promise you'll like it. If you don't we can leave and do something else," I reassured her.
"I trust you I just don't like the unexpected," she said smiling.
"You seem to like surprising other people," I said as I thought of all the pranks we have received this summer.
She smiled smugly. "That's different," she said sticking her tongue out at me. I grabbed it between my fingers and she glared at me. "a's no' ery ni'" she said. (She said "That's not very nice")
I chuckled and let got of her tongue and flicked my nose. "What was that for?" I asked laughing.
"For depriving my tongue of movement," she said smiling teasingly.
"If that's the only you can deprive her tongue of movement Eddie…I'm ashamed," Emmet said from across the table. Everyone laughed as I scowled. Idiot.
"At least I think with my brain and not my-"
Bella slapped her hand over my mouth and shook her head at me as I smiled underneath her palm. "At least you have a brain," she said smirking at Emmet.
"Hey! I have a brain!" Emmet defended.
"Then why don't you use it and find a bathroom that's not in the middle of the woods," Bella said smiling smugly. I watched as shock crossed Emmet's face.
"That was you guys?" Emmet asked completely flabberghasted. (Again, I love that word!)
The girls all burst out laughing while Ben, Jasper, and I all looked at Emmet confused. Emmet just narrowed his eyes at the girls. "You'll get what's coming to you ," Emmet said scowling.
"Bring it," all four girls said at the exact same time. Which was kinda weird. And scary.
"What are you guys talking about?" Jasper asked.
"Nothing important," Alice said waving it off. "So, what are we doing today?" she asked.
"Stuff," Jasper asked smiling hugely. Alice pouted but let it drop. I guess none of the girls liked surprised too much. Oh well.
After breakfast I told Bella to meet me at the banquet hall in twenty minutes. She is going to love this…
BPOV
"Where do you think he's taking you?" Alice asked for about the millionth time.
"Alice, I already told you-I have no idea. He wouldn't give me any clues," I told her frowning. "Where are you going with Jasper?" I asked curiously. She had to have gotten it out of him. You can't surprise Alice no matter hard you try. And trust me-I've tried.
"He wouldn't tell me. Even when I used my puppy dog pout…Did you tell him not to look me in the eye?" she accused.
I smirked. "Good guesser," I said smugly.
"Come on Bella! That was my best defense!" she whined.
"Sorry, it was for the sake of the talent show," I said smirking. She huffed but dropped it. Thank God.
Twenty minutes later…
"Are you ready to go?" Edward asked when I met him in front of the banquet hall.
"Yep, lead the way," I told him. He smiled and grabbed my hand. Five minutes later we were at the head of a trail. "We're hiking?" I asked raising an eyebrow at him.
"Not on the trail," he said leading me a little further away and then into the forest. It was really nice actually. Just walking with Edward. He would ask me random questions and I would answer them completely honest. I would trip over thin air and he would catch me. It was a good time.
Half and hour later we stopped. "Are we there yet?" I asked smiling.
He chuckled and lead me through the trees and into the most beautiful meadow I have ever seen. (I know, very played out, but I had to. You already know what it looks like so just insert your own description cuz I'm feeling kind of lazy : P) My eyes widened as I took in the scene. I turned to Edward who was, instead of looking at the meadow, staring at me.
"Do you like it?" he asked.
"I love it. How did you find this place?" I asked incredulously.
"I was hiking one day and found it. It's one of my favorite places," he said smiling. "You're the first person I've showed it to."
"Thank you," I said sincerely. I pulled him to the middle of the meadow and sat down on the soft grass and dragged him down with me.
"Are you hungry?" he asked me.
"Not really. We just had breakfast," I pointed out. He nodded and reached into the backpack he brought and pulled out two water bottles. He handed one to me and I gladly drank some before putting it back in the pack. He layed down on the grass and I put my head on his cheast.
"So…" Edward said suddenly. "Pudding, huh?"
I laughed. "Sorry about that," I said smiling up at the blue sky.
"Don't be. We'll get you back," he said smugly. I rolled my eyes-and so the cycle continues…
"I'm sure you will-but I doubt it'll be any good," I said smirking.
"It will be, don't worry," he said.
"I'm not," I replied.
"How did you get so good at these pranks?" he asked curiously.
"God-given talent," I answered, because I honestly have no idea.
"I'm glad," he said.
I sat up on my elbow to look at him curiously. "Your glad?" I asked confused.
"Yeah. If you guys hadn't pranked us back we wouldn't have been so curious about you and we wouldn't be here right now," he said.
"Well then, I'm glad too," I said smiling before kissing him. He pulled me on top of him and the kiss deepened. Wow. I am way over my head here. He is just too amazing for me…
Once we pulled away we were breathing hard. I layed my head back on his cheast. I could feel his heart hammering just as fast as mine was. I'm glad I'm not the only one. "I love you," he murmured before kissing my hair.
"I love you too," I said back. And I really did…
………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………….
We got back to the camp around just as it was getting dark. I'm so glad Edward brought food with him-I didn't want to leave. He walked me back to my cabin and told me he'd see me at dinner. I miss him already. I pushed open the door and was immediately bombarded with questions.
"How was it?"
"Where did you go?"
"What did you do?"
"Guys!" I said. They stopped talking at once. "He took me for a hike and we ended up in this beautiful meadow. It was perfect," I said smiling.
"That's all?" Rosalie asked disappointed. "Nothing else happened?"
"He told me he loved me," I said smiling widely.
"He did?!" All three girls yelled at once.
"That's what I said!" I yelled in the same tone they used. They all scowled at me for a second before breaking into smiles.
"I knew you two would be perfect together!" Alice squealed.
"So…what did you guys do?" I asked curiously.
"Jasper took me to this mall outside of the camp. He told me he had to beg Carlisle and Esme to let him out of camp grounds. It was so fun! He carried all my bags," Alice said happily.
I stared at her incredulously. "All your bags?" I asked making sure I heard her right. When she shops she has a lot of bags. She nodded happily. Go Jasper, was all I thought.
"Emmet took me to his parent's cabin. They have a huge tv in there. We watched movies all day," Rosalie said happily. I couldn't help but think they did a little more than watch movies…
"Ben and I spent the whole walking around the beach. It was so romantic," Angela gushed. Awe, she and Ben are so cute…
"It sounds like we all had a good day," I said smiling-even though good was an understatement. It was perfect.
I hope you guys appreciate my forced gushy-ness. Next chapter will be BOY'S REVENGE!! Woot woot! REVIEW!
