These past few days with Bella have been simply amazing. I love spending time with her, I love learning about her life and I love every bit about her personality. Face it Edward you love her. Yes I do, I fucking love her. I was planning on telling her I loved her tonight, on our date that she finally said yes too; actually the date I bribed her into.

"I want to take you somewhere tomorrow night." I said while I tucked a lock of hair back behind her ear that had fallen into her eyes.

"Where to?"

"That's for me to know and for you to find out, so will you go with me?"

"I don't like surprises much Edward." A sudden feeling of disappointment took over me.

"But this surprise involves me."

"Tempting, but I really don't like surprises. Sorry."

"Fine then, will you go on a date with me tomorrow night Miss Swan?"

"A-a date?"

"Yep a date." I looked down at my watch while I was waiting for her answer; hmm two minutes till So You Think You Can Dance. "You have to say yes otherwise no So You Think You Can Dance for you." I knew I had won this time so I stuck my tongue out at her.

"You can't do that! Fine I'll go on the date with you; can I please watch my show?"

"Sure sweet cheeks" I gave her a wink and walked out of the room.

So today was the day of the first date; it had to be perfect. I was planning on taking her to the place I went to as a kid, my meadow. It was the place where I used to write all my songs, the place where I could get away from everything. I built a cubby house there with my dad when I was a kid; it was the best day of my life when he suggested we build one.

I remember one afternoon I took my best friend Eric there, my father didn't know about the trap door we put in. Eric and I used to go there and stash our porn magazines there. Fuck they are still there, must remember to get rid of them before tonight. Being only 12 we thought seeing naked girls was hilarious, until we hit about 16 and thought it was really uncomfortable to sit there together and look at the magazines. Having right angled pants wasn't a good look with your best friend sitting next to you. I don't see him much anymore he moved away with his girlfriend Angela. Note to self: must ring him and see how he is doing. The cubby house was tall enough still, well it would be for Bella, I will have to bend down to get in but this is where I wanted our perfect date.

There was still an hour left before she came over, an hour left of me thinking if I got everything. An hour left of my pacing this fucking hallway. Tonight was the night I actually found out where we go from where we are. Is she my girlfriend? I fucking hope so. I want to spend the rest of my life with this woman.

I found out that her favourite restaurant is Casa Di Nico so I rang up and ordered her favourite meal Risotto Alla Pitocca; I just had to pick it up on the way. I had decked out the cubby house with candles and lights. There wasn't enough room for a table or anything so a picnic blanket on the floor was going to have to do. I had my guitar in the car already to play her song to her after dinner. I also had the best wine money could buy.

I glanced at the clock again, fuck forty five minutes left. It feels like time is dragging. To calm myself down I went upstairs and decided to play that game Emmett left here; guitar hero. After about five songs I finally got the hang of it and went up a difficulty, shit medium was a lot faster than easy. What!? You have to do the blue one too? What the fuck?

Before I could get anymore annoyed with the game I saw headlights pull into the driveway. "Yes!" Did I just say that out loud? Ah fuck it. I literally ran down the stairs and waited for her to knock.

When I opened the door I'm sure my jaw hit the ground. Fuck she was beautiful. She had a black cocktail dress on that was tight in all the right places. Her hair was down, flowing just below her shoulders. That dress showed way too much skin, in that instant I had the hardest dick possible. Fuck.

"Miss swan." I kissed her on the cheek and let her in.

"Evening Mr. Cullen." Mmm I love that way she says that. Not helping your problem!

"So are you ready to go beautiful?"

She instantly turned a shade of red. "I wish you would tell me where we are going."

"Ah, but that would ruin the surprise sweet cheeks. I just have to stop off somewhere first."

I opened the door for her and held out my arm. "Shall we?" She took my arm and I led her over to the passenger side of the car. As I opened the door for her and she slid in her dress came up to show even more skin which caused me to become even harder. Tonight is going to be a long one.

As we were driving I gave her my IPod again and let her choose something. "Oh my God!" Bella squealed

"What? What is it?"

"You have Pink on your IPod? I fucking love her!" Again not helping my problem with hearing her swear, fuck it was sexy. It was becoming really uncomfortable; I could feel the strain on my pants. I don't think it can get any bigger.

When I looked over at Bella she was playing an air guitar singing at the top of her lungs.

So what? I'm still a rock star

I got my rock moves

And I don't need you

And guess what I'm havin' more fun

And now that we're done

I'm gonna show you tonight

I'm alright. I'm just fine

And you're a tool so

So what? I am rock star

I got my rock moves

And I don't want you tonight.

By the end of the chorus she was doing a little dance in her seat with her air guitar while bopping her head. Fuck she was adorable. Note to self: put more Pink on IPod.

When I pulled up to Casa Di Nico Bella was still singing along to Pink. "I'll be back" I gave her a kiss on the cheek and went to collect our dinner. As I turned around I saw her still playing air guitar dancing around like an idiot. Fuck I love her. I started laughing and smiling at her when she looked up and saw me she started scratching her neck and looking around like she wasn't doing anything. She was such a dork, my dork.

When I walked into the restaurant I got greeted by a pretty girl named Leah. Yeah she was pretty but she wasn't as pretty as my Bella.

"Hi, welcome to Casa Di Nico, how can I help you?" She batted her eyelashes obviously flirting with me; not that it was going to work.

"Hey, I'm here to pick up an order for Edward Cullen."

"Sure, I'll be right back."

When she came back she handed me my order still batting her eyelashes.

"Do you have a twitch or something Miss?"

"Excuse me?"

"Your eyelashes, they keep twitching." I started to grin to myself while she looked at me with a shocked look. When I paid for my order I made sure I batted my eyelashes back at her before I walked out laughing to myself.

When I returned to the car Bella stopped her air guitar and took I deep breathe in. "I smell Risotto Alla Pitocca." Oh she was good.

"Yep you sure do." I put our dinner on the back seat then started the quick drive to the meadow.

"Are we there yet?" Bella complained for the fifth time.

"Bella it's been ten minutes, don't get your knickers in a knot."

When we got there Bella just looked at me. I gave her a smirk and grabbed the flashlight from the back seat.

"So you up for a hike?"

"Umm, not really."

"Ah come on it will be fun."

"Yeah real fun in high heels." Oh shit I forgot she was wearing them. I should have told her to wear more comfortable shoes. Shit.

I handed her the plastic bag with the food in it while I put my guitar on my back. "Up we go." I picked Bella up and cradled her close to my chest.

"Edward what are you doing?"

"You can walk if you want, but you'll end up breaking those shoes of yours." She didn't complain anymore, obviously not wanting to break her shoes. The walk only took five minutes until we reached the cubby house.

I put Bella down and opened the door for her. I got really nervous after a while when she didn't say anything. "Is everything okay Bella?"

"It's beautiful." You must have done something right Cullen.

"Well I have to light the candles still." I walked over and lit all the candles I had around the place.

"Okay now this is beautiful." Definitely did something right.

When I looked around there were lights all around the cubby house with candles and the picnic blanket in the centre. To me it wasn't much, but for Bella it must be. I took her hand and led her over to the blanket. I grabbed two glasses and poured some wine for us both.

"So are you hungry?"

"Yeah."

I got our dinner out of the bag and handed her a knife and fork. "Enjoy."

While we were eating dinner we talked about little things that didn't really have a point, but to me it had a point, every little bit of information I found out about her made me love her more.

When we finished dinner we just laid there on the blanket together just enjoying each others company. I wanted to know more about her; so I just asked her random questions that will mean everything to me.

"Bella do you have any pets?"

She giggled very lightly. "Yes I have a dog named Bully, he's my baby."

"Do you see your mum often?"

"No, very rarely actually maybe twice a year." Her voice was soft; she was obviously upset so I pulled her closer to me. Her sweet strawberry scent was driving me and my bulge crazy. Now isn't the time to be thinking about your dick Cullen.

"I miss her, she is always with Phil travelling for baseball and never has time to come and visit. I mean I love my dad but a girl needs her mother." Very faintly I heard her say 'especially now'. I didn't ask her about the last comment I didn't want to upset her any more. Find a way to lighten up the mood dumb ass, this is meant to be a night you remember not one you dread to look back on.

"She doesn't know what she's missing; you are the most gorgeous girl I have ever met." I sat up and Bella followed. "The most beautiful girl I have ever met." I was looking at her dead in the eye with my hands cradling her face. "And the strongest girl I have ever met. I would give up the world for you Bella. I will do everything in my power to keep you safe and everything in my power to keep you happy. You are my life now.I love you Isabella Swan."

So will she say it back? Will she tell him about Jake?

Hopefully it won't take too long for the next chapter.
