CHAPTER 13
And that is what I did. Edward and I went out in the late afternoon to the mall and had dinner out that night. He and Esme had turned all their calls over to the hospital service for the weekend. He caught me looking at him over dinner and said, "Yes."
"It is still amazing how comfortable I feel with you already."
"I know; I feel the same way."
When the waitress brought us our bill, Edward had just finished kissing me and setting me back onto my seat of the booth. "You two look great together and so in love when are you due?"
I said, "Thank you and unfortunately I am not due until March. I am carrying twins."
"Oh. You two are so lucky".
Edward gave her his credit card and said, "Thank you. I am the lucky one."
Then I said, "We both are."
After dinner we started to drive towards the casita and I said, "You missed the turn, Edward."
"No I didn't. I have someplace I want to show you, if that is okay?"
"Sure. Where are we going?"
"You will see soon enough."
So fifteen minutes later he pulled into a condo complex, "Edward, are you taking me to your home?"
"Yes. Is that okay?"
"Yes. I would love to see where you live."
"As we got out of his car, a neighbor stopped him and asked, "Where have you been keeping this beauty?"
"I haven't been hiding her. Bella, this is my nosy neighbor Peter and his wife Charlotte is pregnant right now and is one of my patients."
"Hello Bella. You are the first girl I have ever seen Edward bring home in the last two years I have lived here."
"Okay. Good-bye Peter. Tell Charlotte I will see her next week and to take it easy."
So into the condo we went. I saw the living room, dining room and kitchen and he had two bedrooms. One was a bedroom and the other held a piano and his music collection. "Edward, you play the piano?"
"Yes," he sat down and played me Christmas music and then he started on a melody and I said, "What is that?" as I leaned in and whispered while he continued to play.
Once he stopped, he leaned toward my ear and whispered, "It is a melody that I came home and created after our first meeting because your brown eyes were just so haunting to me."
"Edward," and he turned my face into his.
He wiped away my tears and said, "Does that mean you like it?"
"No, Edward. I love it as much as I love you."
"How about a movie here with me?"
"Of course," and we settled down on his couch and watched a movie. Two hours later we had fallen asleep on his couch. My cell phone started ringing. I fell off the couch trying to get my phone quickly and cursed. Then I answered the phone and said, "What?"
"Where the hell are you?" said Emmett. "Rose is out driving around trying to find you because you aren't answering her texts."
"Stop it, you two. I am fine. Until two minutes ago when the phone rang, I was cuddled up with my boyfriend on the couch. Now I am sitting on the floor because you scared me half to death and I fell on the floor."
"Then why is the casita dark if you were asleep on the couch and not answering the door."
"Because I am not there. I am at my boyfriend's house and I might not come home so call off my big sis and leave me alone."
So then I hung up and Edward came down to the floor with me. "So you plan on staying the night here."
"Only if my boyfriend will let me and he has some night clothes I can borrow."
"I would love to have you spend the night here with me. I am sure I can find something you can wear or you can sleep naked with me, I wouldn't mind."
"No thanks. I would be more comfortable in some clothing."
So into his bedroom we went, as I sat down on the bed, Edward sat a present on my lap. "What did you do?" I asked.
"I bought this for you a while ago for the first night you stayed here with me."
So I opened it and found a big long sleep shirt that was imprinted my girlfriend is so beautiful pregnant. There were plenty of panties underneath as well.
So I got up and went to the bathroom to change. I was then lying in his bed and then he climbed in next to me and pulled me in close. "I love you and I love that you are staying here with me. Are you comfortable?"
"Yes, with you wrapped around me; how could I not be?"
He started humming my melody to me. The next morning I woke up to the smells of blueberry muffins and my boyfriend whispering, "I love you."
"Morning," I said.
Edward set the tray down and helped me sit up against the headboard. Then he set the tray in front of us, we sat and ate breakfast together. Edward took a shower and got dressed; I just got dressed. We went back to my casita and this time I got my shower and clean clothes.
I had just finished showering, dressing and came out of my bedroom when my door bell rang. I went and answered the door
"Hi Rose and Emmett"
"Hi Baby Oven and Edward"
"Okay," I said, "All I have to say is sorry. The next time I am not coming home I will text you."
"That is all we ask," Emmett said.
"Are we all still going to the movies later today?" I asked.
"Yes of course." Rose said as she pulled me into a hug. "We are sorry we have just never seen you two not come back here."
"Fine. We are going for a walk; do you want to come along? But remember, Emmett, I will be going for a slow walk."
"We would love to go for a walk with you two. Let us go switch shoes and we will meet you out front." So the four of us went for a walk together, we laughed and giggled together sharing stories from our childhoods. When we made it to the park, Edward pushed me on the swing gently and then I sat and rested. We all finally headed back together.
That evening our group had just come back from an afternoon movie and dinner we were just lounging in Rose and Emmett's living room, Emmett asked, "Can we all go up to the cabin on the lake for the weekend, doc?" Everyone looks at Edward and me.
"Where is it and how long does it take to get there?"
"About 90 minutes from here up at Big Bear in the mountains. It has four bedrooms; we will give you two the master bedroom so that my children are the most comfortable."
"I don't see why not; you just have to take it easy," as he hugged me.
I smiled and said, "I can do that. There is a perfect porch swing with my name on it."
Alice was then up and running around squealing, "Road trip, cool!"
I rolled into Edward's side laughing and said, "Save me."
"Don't worry; I'll protect you."
Alice said, "Can we rent a minivan and all go together? Bella you can ride up front so that you are comfortable."
Edward said, "We can't because this one," as he wrapped his arms around me tighter, "is going to have to stop and pee more times than any of you will want to stop. This way with all our stops, you guys can have the fridge stocked by the time we get there."
"Fine," said Alice. "But I am going to text you, Bella."
I smiled and said, "Maybe I'll answer or just turn off my phone."
