Hello everyone, so I really need new music like badly, and so I was wondering if you guys could give me the names of a couple songs in a review. Thanks!!!

I want to dedicate this chapter to TWIMOM because she has read like all my stories and she reviews every single chapter! This is just kinda my way of saying thanks, and you rock.

Disclaimer: Twilight is on the list of the many things I don't own. Like I don't own a pink diamond though I really wish I did. When you read this chapter you will find out why. And yes I wish I owned Twilight too, but I don't own that either, as you know this is really depressing and takes a toll on your wellbeing after a while. Thankfully I haven't gotten to that point yet. Let's hope that doesn't happen cuz I don't have the money to pay for therapy because I don't own Twilight OR a pink diamond.

Oh and this chapter wasn't betaed, sorry again to my beta, but it had been a while since I updated, and I didn't want to keep you waiting any longer.

"Did he say it? Did he say it? Did he say it?" Alice asked. We had just gotten to the stadium. Alice knew what had transpired earlier, but she just wanted to make Bella admit to it.

"Yes Alice, and I can't believe you knew this whole time!"

"Sorry, but he asked me to keep it a secret." Bella just rolled her eyes, but smiled at Alice, and I knew she was forgiven.

I was so happy. The girl I loved, loved me back, and I honestly didn't know how it could get any better.

The game was a lot of fun, and Bella really enjoyed it, which was my whole reason for this day. Emmett caught three foul balls, and gave them to each of the girls. But at the end of the day the only thing that mattered was that I was with Bella.

"Thank you Edward! That was so much fun!" Bella gushed then kissed me, and I willingly returned the favor.

"Alright you two. I know you have both wanted this for a long time, but come on, we haven't disappeared. We can still see you!" Alice said.

"Shut up Alice," I broke away to say then immediately went back to kissing Bella.

"Bella! We have to get home! If we don't leave soon, we're going to have to stay overnight, and that means shopping in the morning!"

"You don't play fair!" Bella said breaking the kiss.

"Yeah well I'd rather not puke thanks!" Bella just rolled her eyes at Alice's dramatic nature.

"What's on the agenda?" Emmett asked.

"I say we go grab something to eat!" I said. I hadn't eaten anything all day I was too nervous about what Bella would say.

"Yes!" Emmett exclaimed. So we went to a steakhouse. We were all in good spirits. We were all together, and it was summer. I think that summer feeling had finally set in and we could all feel it.

"We really need to get home. I'm getting pretty tired." Alice said. We all felt the same, so we left, and started the long drive back to Forks.

"When did you first know you were in love with me?" Bella asked about halfway through the drive.

"When Alice and Jasper got together. I was thinking about how much I wanted someone in my life. Then you walked in, and smiled at me. I couldn't help but think wow that was like fate, and I had, had a crush on you for the longest time before that, but it kinda just hit me at that moment that it was a lot more than that. That's when I realized I was in love with you. I think that I fell in love with you the first time I saw you though." I smiled at her, and she had tears in her eyes. "How about you?"

"I realized I was in love with you when you came up and told me that you asked Alexi out in freshman year. But I too fell in love with you when I first saw you."

"Is that why you looked so devastated that day?" I asked her remembering how her face had crumpled when I told her. The memory hurt me. I didn't realize how much pain I had caused in her life for all these years. She just nodded and looked down at her hands.

"Bella, I'm so sorry. I didn't realize it was hurting you so bad to see me with her all this time. If I would have, I wouldn't have let the relationship go on as long as it did! No relationship is worth that."

"Edward stop! How were you supposed to know? Don't blame yourself for something you had no control over. The important thing is-we're together now." She said with a smile.

"You're right!" I grabbed her hand, and rubbed circles into the back of it with my thumb. We drove in silence the rest of the way home, just content to be by the other's side.

It was late when we got back, so we just said goodnight to everyone and headed up to our room. It was after all partially hers now. For the summer at least.

"Today was amazing! I'm so exhausted though." Bella said as she fell back on the bed. I smiled and nodded in agreement.

"It was a good day." I said as I crawled into bed with her. She immediately laid her head on my chest and put her arm around me. I held her in my arms and stroked her hair.

"Goodnight Edward, I love you." Bella said softly.

I smiled at how wonderful that sounded and said, "I love you too Bella." We both fell asleep quickly. Both still wearing the clothes we had on.

…

At seven the next morning Jasper came in and woke me up.

"Go away Jazz!"

"Edward I'm sorry, but I need your help today." Jasper whispered.

"With what?!" I was getting kind of annoyed.

"I need help picking out Alice's engagement ring! Emmett's coming too, but that's more so he doesn't tell Alice when we're gone. So I'm really going to need you."

I was definitely awake now. "Alright Jazz, are we going soon?"

"I wanted to propose tonight, and I don't know how long it's going to take to pick it out. I want enough time to set up for tonight, so I was thinking about leaving in about an hour."

"Okay, I'll take a shower, and meet you downstairs." He nodded. I was careful not to wake Bella up as I was getting ready. I left her a note, so she didn't think I just left her.

Bella,

I left to help Jazz out with something. I'm not sure when I'll be back, so try to have some fun with Rose and Alice! I will see you as soon as I can! I love you!

Love, Edward.

I left it on my pillow, and hoped she would find it. Then I bent down kissed her forehead, and headed downstairs.

"Alright, Alice wants a pink diamond, and it has to be from Tiffany's. She has been dreaming about this ring since the third grade." Jasper said.

"So it looks like we're going to Seattle again." I said. Jasper just nodded.

"Aw come on Jazz! There's a Sox game on today, I wanted to watch it!" Emmett complained.

"Dude our best friend is going to ask our little sister for her hand, and you're worried about missing a baseball game?" I said harshly, but he needed to hear it.

"Oh right!" Emmett finally caught on. "So what did our dad say? When did you ask him?"

"I called him this morning after I woke Edward up. He was thrilled. I believe his exact words were: 'What took you so long! Of course you have my permission. I just wish we were there to see it!'"

I smiled at that, we had all been waiting for Jasper to ask Alice. Now we only had to wait for Emmett to ask Rose, and I-Bella.

That last one-though I had loved her since I met her-probably was going to take a while. Don't get me wrong. I would love to secure a long future with Bella, but I had a feeling that a long future was a definite thing. But I wanted to wait until we were both out of school before I made any huge commitments.

The more I thought about it, the more sure I was that Bella and I would be together for the rest of our lives. It was like I had know it subconsciously, but now that I was with her, I knew she was the one I would marry.

I began to plan out how I would ask her. Maybe along the same lines as how I had asked her to be my girlfriend. That seemed a little too insincere though, so I would find something different. I couldn't wait to start my life with Bella, and I wished she was in my arms.

"Dude, did you hear what I just said?" Jasper asked, snapping me out of my reverie.

"Sorry, no what?"

"I was wondering if you would be my best man." Jasper said, he looked slightly embarrassed.

"Of course Jasper!" I was honored that he chose me. Emmett clearly had a case of the sour grapes though. Until Jasper said, "And I want Emmett and Carlisle to be my groomsmen." Emmett smiled like a kid in a candy shop.

"So how are you going to ask her?" Emmett asked.

"Well there's only one place I know of that Alice like as much as the mall." Jasper said.

"La Push!" Emmett and I exclaimed. Alice forced us to go there every summer.

"Yeah, so I'm gonna have a picnic on the beach with all her favorite food, and right before dessert is when I'm going to ask her."

I could tell that he had put a lot of planning into this. Despite the fact that all Alice ever seemed to want to do was shop-she was actually a pretty complex person. She liked everything to be perfect, and she was almost impossible to describe in words because she could go from a shallow, superficial drama queen who only cared about how she looked, to a deep, and compassionate person faster than you could say wow. So it couldn't have been easy to plan the perfect proposal, but Jasper somehow found a way. And that is why I was overjoyed by the fact that he was marrying my little sister.

"Do you think she'll like it?" He was a little more than nervous. I would be too if I were marrying one of the most crazy people on the planet. I loved my sister, but...wow Jasper had a lot of guts.

"Are you kidding dude, we're going to be hearing about how perfect tonight's going to be for years to come!" Emmett laughed.

"Seriously I can't think of how it could get any better." I said.

The words seemed to calm him a little.

"So are you going to play any part in the actual planning?" Emmett asked.

"No! That's all Alice, only she can know what her dream wedding is, and that's what I want her to have." Alice really could never find a better guy, or a guy who knew her better. Jasper was absolutely perfect for her. He would always be able to make her happy.

After that the conversation slowly drifted away from weddings. We found ourselves in Seattle soon enough, and it was time to get down to business.

We went straight to Tiffany's where we found a sales person to help us.

"May I be of service?" She asked in a polite tone, and I noticed she wasn't gawking at any of us.

"Yeah I want to propose to my girlfriend tonight, and she's had her dream ring in her mind since the seventh grade when we first got together, and anything short of that would be a disappointment." Jasper was obviously really nervous that we wouldn't get Alice's perfect ring.

The sales woman's smile clearly said I-know-what-you're-going-through-I'm-here-to-help. "Why don't you explain it to me and we can go from there."

"Okay well she wants a pink diamond with three smaller white diamonds off to each side of the pink diamond. Do you have anything like that at all?" Jasper looked worried.

"I think I have just the ring for you!" She said. Then stepped into the back.

"Explain the ring." I said. Alice must have had a reason for wanting that specific ring.

"Well the main stone she wanted pink for one because it's her favorite color, and she says it's the color of love, and the stone itself is supposed to represent me. It's the biggest one because I'm her one true love. And then the other six diamonds are supposed to represent the one's she cares about most-besides me of course-you, Emmett, Carlisle, Rose, Bella, and Esme. She says the band it to represent how we are all one big family. And if we ever have kids she wants a diamond for each added onto the ring too."

This is what I meant when I said Alice had multiple sides to her. The sales woman showed up a little bit later carrying a white box in her hand.

"I need to warn you now. Pink diamonds are the rarest and most valuable type of diamond. This particular ring is going to be very expensive. Well out of most people's price rang. If you were to look at pink topaz, or Garnet, or even Pink Sapphire, the price would be a lot more reasonable." She wasn't trying to be rude, just informing us of what was to come.

"It absolutely has to be diamond! Besides price really isn't an object. Unless of course you are looking for billions, just name your price."

"For a four carat pink diamond, plus six two carat diamonds, and a six carat gold band, we're looking at about $4,700,281.69. We tried to find a similar ring with smaller stones, but nothing fit the criteria." The woman said doubtfully like she didn't believe he could really afford it. Both Emmett and I knew he had more than enough money.

"Before I commit to anything I want to see the ring first. Just to make sure it's what I want." Jasper said. The saleswoman was obviously shocked that he wasn't telling her to go find pink topaz, but showed him the ring anyway.

When we saw it we all gasped. It was exactly what Jasper wanted. In the center of the band was a large pink stone, and off to either side were three smaller stones arranged in a triangular pattern with the tips pointing out away from the largest diamond in the middle.

"I'll take it!" This was obviously the ring Jasper had pictured, and he was dead set on having it.

"Are you sure sir?" The woman was astonished that he could afford it.

"Absolutely. It's exactly what I wanted! and I have enough money."

"Alright, I'll ring it up for you." Jasper handed her one of his many nearly limit-less credit cards, and she left to ring it up.

"Dude you must really love our sister!" Emmett was astounded. Jasper may have more than enough, but it still didn't take away from the fact that he had just spent close to five million dollars on an engagement ring.

"I really do, and this is nothing, just pysical proof of how much I love her."

"Here you go Mr. Hale. I hope you have a wonderful rest of you're day, and I really hope all goes well when you ask this lucky girl to marry you. She would be crazy to say no. And I hope you come back again soon." The sales lady said handing Jasper the ring, and his credit card. Of course she wanted him to come again. Who wouldn't?

He just nodded, and we exited the store.

"Well that took less time than I expected. So I'm going to drive you guys home, Then I need to go to Carin's to get food." (Carin's was Alice's favorite restaurant.) "And then go to La Push, set up, and then come get you guys." Jasper said.

"Who's going to make sure the food stays safe when you come get us?" I asked skeptically.

"Shoot I didn't think about that. Alright new plan. I'll call you when I'm ready. Make sure Alice just thinks it's a casual hang out at the beach type thing. I don't want it to be formal at all."

Both Emmett and I nodded. Jasper really had put a lot of thought into this, and neither Em nor I were about to mess any part of it up. We wanted out little sister to be happy after all. And jasper was without a doubt to only person who could ever truly make Ali happy.

Okay guys I actually did my research for this chapter, and I learned that a pink diamond is the rarest, and a one carat pink diamond can cost up to a million dollars. And think Jasper got a four carat with six other two carat diamonds on top of that. And just so you can wrap you head around how big four carats is. It's about the size of a typical females fingernail. Yeah, don't we all wish we were that spoiled!
