Chapter 12: Edward's POV
Married live is wonderful. I don't even care that it has only been a week. It has been the best week of my life. Nothing could get me off this high and even Tanya doesn't bother me as much. While she's aware that Bella and I are together she doesn't know we are married. I hope to keep it that way.
Currently we have kept our marriage and relationship away from the paparazzi and I am thankful for that. I know we can't hide forever but we want to take our time. Where we'll slowly begin to tell everyone that we are married. Which is the reason behind my current stress of house hunting in Forks. While I'll be keeping my apartment in Los Angeles I wanted to find our permanent home here in Forks. The apartment is only for work.
Tonight, I'm surprising Bella by coming to Sunday dinner at her dad's house. I've been trying to sneak home to have dinner with Bella every night but something always comes up.
Tonight we finished up early and Garrett had gone back to the hotel for the night. I park at the hotel and have Jake pick me up on his way. I haven't had time to really hang out with Bella's family except at the wedding. I hoped after I moved here we could have more time and family dinners.
"Sorry I'm late. An oil change came in after Rose left." Jake remarks as we walked through the front door.
"It's fine. Bella just took the chicken out of the oven." Her dad replies.
"I also had to pick up a special guest."
At that time Bella popped her head out of the kitchen to yell, "Dinners ready."
There she is. My beautiful wife. With her hair cascading down her shoulders and a blue sundress that came to her knees; she was a vision of beauty. A broad grin appeared when she finally saw me.
"Edward?" She asked walking up to me, "Baby, what are you doing here? I thought you had to work."
Pulling her into an embrace I reply, "I wanted to surprise you. I know this week has been crazy."
"You don't know how much this means to me."
"I'd do anything for you. I love you Bella."
"I love you too."
I was the luckiest guy in the world. Not only was my wife beautiful, sweet, kind but she could cook. Dinner was great. We all laughed and enjoyed sharing our week with each other. I drove home with my wife and listened to her tell me about her day. It was the most fun I've had in long time.
Bella's POV
Since the wedding life has taken an interesting turn. It was not as easy as I expected it to be. I loved Edward to death and while I knew he would be working a lot I never fully realized what it would be like. Every night I would come home to an empty apartment to cook and eat dinner alone. I would try so hard to stay awake so I could be there when Edward would finally come home but, every time I would fall asleep on the couch. Waking up to Edward carrying me to bed and after we would make love we would fall asleep. Repeating the day over again alone.
Everything seemed to be building on top of each other and Friday at work was the tipping point. I had the worst day at work. Jessica came in for her twin's checkups and spent the whole time rubbing her pregnancy and amazing husband and life into my face.
"It is so wonderful. I love having a man come home to me every night. I don't even mind working then coming home to cook and cleaning. It's so satisfying making my husband happy. The sex isn't bad either. I wouldn't be surprised if I'm having twins again." Jessica began during her girl's checkup
"That's great Jessica. I'm glad you're happy."
"I heard Leah is getting married. That's got to be tough being around all that wedding planning and you don't even have a boyfriend."
"No actually I'm just very happy for my sister."I remark through gritted teeth.
"You'll find someone eventually."
"Actually, I'm seeing someone."
"Oh really? Who?"
"You don't know him. He lives in Port Angeles."
"Oh, Bella you don't have to make up a boyfriend." Jessica retorts rolling her eyes at me.
I had to leave my desk before I did something rash…. Like strangling the woman. I need to cool down and not overreact. I wanted to my marriage to be this way so that paparazzi wouldn't become my permanent shadow. I wanted to tell everyone I was Edward's wife but now wasn't the time to do that.
That night I had pizza and a movie with Princess and Kodak trying to figure out what I really wanted. I was awoken again by Edward placing soft butterfly kisses on my neck as he carried me to bed. I woke the next morning to an empty bed. Groaning I get up and shower, trying not to freak out.
It was too late though. Something inside me snapped and standing in the kitchen I broke down crying. I walked away from the dishes and collapsed onto the couch. It was all too much. I was tired of being alone every morning and night. I'm married damn it! I sure as hell didn't feel married.
That is how Edward found me.
"Hey baby. I didn't think you'd still be awake." He states closing the door behind him before looking at me, "Bella, have you been crying? Baby, what's wrong?"
"Edward, this is too much. I knew this was going to be hard but I want a husband who is there for a hot dinner and is there to fall asleep with." I sob trying to hold the tears from falling once again.
"Baby, as soon as I'm done filming in Los Angeles I'm coming home and you'll have that. I just need to fulfill my obligations. I promise you Bella the second I'm done filming I'm on a plane home to start being a family." Edward pleads pulling my hands into his.
"I love you but is it enough? I know I should have discussed this with you before the wedding but I was so wrapped up in us."
"Just tell me what you want Bella and I'll do it for you. If you want me to quit the movie I'll do it for you."
"Oh my god Edward. You'd do that for me?"
"You're my wife. I'd do anything for you."
"I don't want you to quit. Jessica came into the clinic and she was talking about how wonderful it is to have someone to come home to and how she hopes she's having twins again."
"Bella, we'll have that as soon as I'm done filming. I'll even give you a baby if that's what you want."
"Is that what you want?" I ask peering up at him
"Eventually yes I want babies with you but I'd like time just us first."
"Edward, I love you and I want forever with you and babies eventually too."
The next day I went to my dads for Sunday dinner like every week. Being around my family made me feel so much better. I had no doubts or fear after talking to Edward. I knew no matter what he'd be here for me.
I was enjoying making dinner with Sue and my sister's when Jake finally showed up. Timing it perfectly as I pulled the chicken out of the oven. Rounding the corner to give say hello was greeted by another.
My Husband. He never looked so good and I knew he would always tried to make me the happiest person in the world.
Tanya's POV
"Felix!"
He can't do this. He is not going to leave me. It's because of me that he's getting all these roles. That little slut is not going to steal my boyfriend. He. Is. Mine.
"Felix! Get in here!"
I need to break them up but how. Maybe I can get pictures of her cheating. No, wait. She's never going to cheat.
"Yes Tanya."
"I need everything you can find on Edward's little slut."
"I'll call Marcus in the morning."
"No, you'll call him now! I'm not going back to Los Angeles single! He is supposed to be with me!" I scream in fury. I couldn't believe he was doing this to me!
"Fine I'll call Marcus right now. Why don't you just forget about Edward?"
"Because he's mine. Now go call Marcus!"
I'm not going to lose Edward to her. He wants me. I know it. He's going to come back. I'll get him back. I just need to think.
