Chapter 12: The BIG question.
EPOV
We were finally back in Forks, running towards our home.
We were almost there when I felt the small box in my pocket.
"Bella" I asked grabbing her arm, telling her silently to slow down.
"Edward?" Bella asked, concerned.
"Let's go to our meadow for a while"
"Um… sure" Bella said, confused.
***********
We were here, it was now or never.
She stood there, looking at me, smiling at me.
I took a deep breath.
"Bella I love you…" I began, only to be interrupted by Bella.
"I love you too Edward"
"Shhhhh… I wasn't finished" I said, nerves getting the better of me.
"Oh sorry" she said whilst trying to hide a smile.
"Bella, I love you and I want to spend the rest of my life with you. I would rather be ripped to shreds than live without you" I said, knowing it was all true. Bella looked confused.
I got down onto one knee and reached into my pocket, pulling out the little box. I looked up to see Bella looking the box, a shocked expression on her face. She looked like, if she could, she would be crying.
"Bella, will you marry me" I asked, nervously.
What if she said no? Then things will be awkward. Oh no. What have I done?'
Bella looked up from the ring to my face. She was biting her lip. She nodded.
"Of course Edward" she croaked out.
I stood up, taking her hand, sliding the ring onto her finger.
We were engaged.
We were going to get married.
I don't think I could be any happier.
