"Dad, just, shut up!" I was irritated the second I walked into his hotel room. I didn't want to go back and be the girl I had been. I liked who I was now. Though I didn't know what I was going to do yet. I just knew I said bye to that girl a while ago.

"Just tell me how could you be so damn stupid! He is almost a decade older then you! On top of that you let him brand you!"

"He didn't brand me." I said quietly. "It's because it is his design. Like on a painting. People put there names on them. Its art."

"That." He pointed to me. "Is not art. You have marked your body for the rest of your life and without thinking! Don't you understand that you can never get rid of it without shoving out more money!"

"What is this really to do with? That I am dating a guy older then me or that I am more like Emmett then you have ever wanted to admit. You've done everything in your power to stop me from truly being in his life and now that I am your trying to what? Scare me out of Florida." He gave me a dirty look.

"See, this, this is what I mean. Your talking back, your acting out. This isn't the behavior of the girl I raised and this isn't how a 19 year old should act. Your coming home with me. End of discussion." My jaw about hit the floor.

"No."

"Excuse me?"

"I'm not letting you run my life anymore. I am happy. And for the record I am home."

"I will not let you ruin your life for some boy."

"The man has a name. It's Edward. And you better learn it because I plan on having him in my life for as long as possible. He is caring and sweet and-"

"And what? You think is going to want to keep a child around. Your nothing to him!"

"You don't know what your talking about!"

"Don't I? Bella I am your father. I want what is best for you."

"Well I love him and you can't change that." The back of his hand was about to hit my face when I stopped it. It was the first time I had ever done that. My father wasn't truly an abusive man, but it wouldn't be the first time I had been back handed. "I'm not a little girl anymore. This is who I am, and this is my life, if you want me in yours well then you have to accept it." I let my hand fall from his arm and grabbed my purse. "I'm sorry Dad, that I am not who you wanted me to be. But this is my life." And with that I left. I didn't expect him to follow me. But I also didn't expect to find myself face to face with Edward when I opened the door.

"Are you OK?"

"What," I closed the hotel door quickly and pulled him down the hallway. "What are you doing here?"

"Rose, she said that you might be leaving and I couldn't let you do that. I needed you to know I don't want you to go." I couldn't help but smile.

"Lets get out of here." I reached up to him giving him a quick kiss and then pulled him to the elevator. I didn't want to have this conversation in the hallway.

I slipped off my sandals when we made it to the beach. Though it was only minutes from when we left the hotel, it felt like hours. My head was reeling. He needed me! But what did that mean. I just admitted to my Dad that I loved him.

"Are you OK?"

"Yea, why wouldn't I be?"

"Um, because of that, back there with your Dad." I smiled a little. "I mean I didn't try to listen but I didn't want to interrupt. I shook my head.

"I'm fine. I promise. Great actually. I think."

"You think?" He stopped me from walking and I turned to face him.

"I just, I don't want it to be a mistake. You know, all of it. I want it to be worth it, but then again I know it will. No matter what happens." I was rambling.

"OK you lost me? What are we actually talking about?"

"Why did you come to the hotel?" I asked suddenly.

"I told you. I couldn't let you leave. No one wants you to. And I really don't want to loss you. Your brother knows everything and though he is a little upset, he is fine." I didn't know what to say to that. Could all this work out? I was scared of getting my hopes up. "Look I sort of had this whole speech planned out in my head but seeing as I can't remember half of it now just bare with me." I smiled, he was cute when he was flustered. "I'm not really good a grand speeches, though I've never given one but I never wanted to before, needed to really."

"Need to?" I asked when he stopped to gather his thoughts. I couldn't help but smile at him.

"Look I, you, I don't know, wow I sound like such an idiot."

"Your fine, just breath."

"Your loving this aren't you?" I smiled and shrugged.

"Maybe just a little." He rolled his eyes and sat down bringing me with him.

"Jeez, OK, look I don't want you to go, I can't promise you this will work. I can't say that we will have happily ever after. But, I, I really suck at this." I shook my head again trying not to laugh but I decided to not make him suffer anymore.

"Its fine." I went up on my knees closing the gap between us. "You showing up at the hotel proved I made the right choice. Telling me you need me and want me here, that just put the icing on the cake."

"Really? I thought grand gestures where a little more, big speeches and what not."

"This isn't the notebook babe." I kissed him lightly and he sighed. "I need you too. And I'm not going anywhere. Your sort of stuck with my now."
