"Bella, tell us again what happened."
"Please don't make me tell you again." I whispered, tears flowing freely down my cheeks.
"Carlisle don't make her say it again, I don't think I could stand to hear it again and she's so drained, I think that's enough."
Edward hugged me closer to his body, placing small kisses on my head. I buried my face in his neck, breathing in his calming scent.
"I'm sorry Bella; I just want to get to the bottom of this."
I nodded against Edwards's neck, showing his I understood. I heard Carlisle sigh before getting up out of his chair and crossing the room. He opened the door and returned to his seat, another set of footsteps following him. I looked up and saw Alice walk over to the desk and perch on the edge.
"Alice have you seen anything indicating that they could be coming for Bella?"
Alice gave me an apologetic glance before shaking her head.
"I'm sorry Carlisle, I haven't seen anything. I'm not even too sure if I can see anything when it involves the monsters. Our powers are useless against them. I may never be able to see them coming."
Her words sent shivers down my spine and I buried my face back into Edward's neck. My teeth took hold of my bottom lip, biting down to stop my sobs.
"It's okay Alice; it's not your fault."
Edward gave a heavy sigh while running his fingers through my hair, gently scratching at my scalp. Silence filled the room; however, I had a feeling that there was a silent conversation going on around me. It didn't last long as, Edward soon stood up, bidding goodbye to Carlisle and Alice, before running back up to his room.
He led me gently on the bed, before crawling over to me and pulling me into his chest. We led in peace.
"Bella, we will do everything in our power to keep you safe."

4 Weeks Later.
"Alice, are you almost done yet?"
She continued to pull and twist at my hair, constructing it into a loose messy bun, with soft curls falling around my shoulders.
"Bella, do you want to look nice on your first date with Edward?"
"Yeah but…"
She gave a little tug on my hair.
"Well then let me do my thing."
So I shut up and let her poke me and prod me with every single beauty contraption that had ever been made. The past four weeks had been rather tense, with Carlisle focusing on my healing and doing researching into how my body works Alice still had seen nothing of the monsters arrival, which I seemed so sure about, and seems to doubt that they are coming. Edward continues to be protective, in case of such an emergence, yet somehow managing to keep me at an arm's length, worried about 'breaking me' putting a stop to our heavy make out sessions, much to my displeasure. School had been running smoother. Lauren and Jessica no longer bothered me, thanks to the murderous looks from my family. Things then got especially better once I was freed from the wheelchair, no longer having to endure the staring from my fellow class mates, wondering if what Lauren had said was true.
With my mood improving and feeling as if live was starting to get easier, Edward decided that he wanted to take me out on a date, a real date where we can be alone together and enjoy with sudden change in nice weather. Hence the torture Alice was now putting me through.
After about another half an hour of having to suffer Alice's torture, she finally deemed me presentable. I stood from her beauty chair, smoothing the wrinkles from my dark blue skirt. Turning to look at myself in the mirror, I was taken aback by what was reflecting back. I was no longer plain old Bella. This Bella looked beautiful but not in an over-done way. Alice had used neutral colours to highlight my face and a soft blue eye shadow to bring out my now goldenly eyes. I was mixing between happy and content, thus the golden eyes.
"Wow Bella, with that eye color you got going on, you would think that you were one of the vamps."
Alice said with a wink and a light nudge with her elbow.
"Thank you so much Alice. I can't believe you made me look like this!"
"I can only enhance what is already there."
With that she danced out the room, leaving me alone. Edward was going to pick me up in my room for our date. He wanted it to be like the real thing, but seeing as we now lived together, he would just pick me up from my room.
Knock Knock.
Talk of the devil. I gently walked over to the door, seeing as I still found it quite hard to walk at a normal pace, and pulled it open revealing my own personal God. He was lent against the wall, hands in the pockets of his dark washed jeans with a dark green shirt tucked into the front of his pants. It looked like he had tried to do something with his bed hair, but it didn't work. I looked up at his face, noticing his signature smirk. He had caught me checking him out.
"Hey."
"Hey." I grinned back.
"You ready to go?"
"Yep." I said popping the P.
I reached over to my chest of draws and picked up my purse before stepping out and pulling the door closed. I was swooped up into Edward's arms as soon as the door came to and in a flash, we were at the bottom of the stairs.
"Edward, I can walk now, you don't need to carry me."
"I know, I just like having you in my arms." He smirked at me.
I heard a loud gawk coming from the living room. Looking over my shoulder, I saw Emmett rolling around on the floor.
"God Edward, you're so cheesy." Rosalie piped in, causing the rest of them to laugh. I turned back to Edward, who was looking down at the floor, looking a little hurt. I placed my hand on his cheek catching his attention. I gently smiled at him.
"I love your cheesiness."
He grinned a toothy grin and lent down, pecking me lightly on the lips. That's as far as we had been able to go ever since that time a few weeks ago. Edward was always too scared to take it any further, afraid he might hurt me again. I tried to talk it around him, but he's just too relentless.
I sighed heavily when he pulled away, much too quickly, but managed to put a smile on my face as we bid our family goodbye. Edward placed me into the passenger seat of his car, buckling me in like I was a five year old. He proceeded to jump into the car and peel out of the drive way, taking my left hand in his as he drove.
"So, are you going to tell me where we are going?"
Edward turned to look at me, his perfect crooked grin in place.
"Now what would be the fun in that?"
He winked before turning back around and focusing on the road. We drive through Forks and out of the town, however, not traveling too far away as Edward pulled up onto the side of the road, near a sign post reading 'The Lake'. I went to open the car door, when I was beaten by a very smug looking Edward.
"Are you going to let me walk this time?" I glared at him as he extended his hand towards me.
"Maybe." He replied with a cheeky grin.
I took his hand and stepped out of the car, shock as hell when I wasn't captured into his arms. Edward dropped my hand and went to the boot of the car, pulling out a picnic basket and a small blanket before joining me at my side and taking my hand in his free one.
"Oh, so you ARE going to let me walk then."
"Only because I already have my hands full."
I shook my head at him as he led us down a stone path through the forest, at a very leisurely pace, no doubt worried about pushing me too much. Along our walk, he pointed out different animals that we saw, occasionally commenting on how they tasted.
"…And see the badger over there?"
"Yes."
"Well they taste vile!"
I smacked him on the shoulder.
"Edward, I REALLY don't want to know what certain animal's blood tastes like."
He gave up after that, pointing out to me the different flowers we past, picking a few of his favorites for me in a little bocay.
"Did you know you smell like freesias to me?"
I looked up at him in surprise.
"Really?"
"Yeah and a little strawberry in there too."
"Wow, it sounds like I smell nice."
Edward suddenly stopped turning around to face me and bending down so his mouth was right next to my ear.
"You don't smell nice Isabella, you smell absolutely delicious."
He placed a single kiss just below my ear on my neck, eliciting a soft moan from me, before taking my hand and continuing to walk as if nothing had happened.
"Stupid teasing vampire boyfriend." I huffed under my breath.
"What was that love?"
"Oh like you don't know with your freaky super hearing." I grumbled at him. Edward threw his head back in laughed, pretending to wipe the non-existent tears from his eyes. We continued to walk in silence, partially because I was still mad at him for being such a tease. It wasn't until the silence had been going on for a while, that I noticed that we were still just walking through the forest.
"Edward, are you planning on actually taking me somewhere, or are we going to walk around the forest for a couple of more hours pretending we are going to have a picnic?"
He turned toward me, one eyebrow quirked, trying to keep the smile off his face.
"We're almost there."
I huffed in annoyance as he continued to pull me along. After about another 10 minutes of aimlessly wondering (particularly on my behalf) I noticed a clearing in front. I looked up at Edward who smiled back down at me in confirmation.
"We're here."
When we reached the opening I gasped in surprise and awe. It was as if there was an oasis in the middle of the forest; a huge crystal lake surrounded by lush green grass and beautiful wild flowers.
"It's beautiful Edward!"
Small families were gathered around the lake, having picnic's of their own. How on earth did they all get here? It wasn't until I looked across the opening that I was a small car park through the trees on the other side.
"You made me walk all that way for nothing!"
I ripped my hand from his and crossed my arms over my chest, pouting like a child. I really can't believe he had made me walk all that way!
"Love, please don't get mad. I just wanted to spend some extra time with you alone."
He tucked a loose piece of hair behind my ear, brushing my cheek lightly before cupping my face. I felt my anger wash away, leaning into his palm, placing a small kiss on the inside of his wrist.
"Come on love, I know the perfect spot."
He pulled me across the field, right to the edge of the lake, so that we were away from everyone else, overlooking them. He spread the blanket on the floor, sitting down and pulling me between his legs, my back against his chest. He opened the basket revealing a variety of different fruits and little savory snacks.
We sat there in each other's arms, him feeding me every so often and stealing sweet kisses in between our game of 20 questions.
"So what's your favorite color?" Edward asked while popping a grape into my mouth.
"Well, I have to say it varies from day to day depending on my mood, but I've always loved green. It's just such a refreshing color, that's why I like it around here so much."
"Aww and I was hoping you liked it around here for another reason."
I looked over my shoulder to see him pouting. He looked cute when he pouted.
"Well, I suppose you could possible maybe be considered a reason I like it here." I responded with a smirk.
"Oh really?" He growled at me.
Suddenly I was pinned beneath him and he ticked my sides. I squealed out in laugher.
"Please no stop!"
"Say I am the best thing around here!"
"Never!"
"Say it!"
"NO."
He continued to poke my sides as I rolled around on the blanket.
"Edward STOP."
"Say. It. Now."
"Edward you're the best thing that ever happened to me!"
He stopped tickling me, but still hovering over me, gazing into my eyes. His big hand gently cupped my neck, exposing my neck for him. He lent down pressing small tingling kisses along my neck.
"You're the best thing that happened to me too."
He gazed up into my eyes, sending me into a hypnotic trance. He tenderly took my top lip into his mouth gently sucking as I captured his bottom. However, before I had the chance to try and deepen it, he pulled away; bring me up and holding me against his chest like before.
"Some parents are worried that we might start doing a practical science lesson in front of their children."
I looked across the field to see a few parents looking at us disapprovingly, while their children stood there and pointed in our general direction. I couldn't help but scoff.
"Yeah and me hoping."
I heard Edward sigh behind me.
"Bella, I know you're mad about this whole physical stuff, but you know why I refuse to let it get out of hand."
"Edward, you are not going to break me!"
"Bella, I saw myself KILL YOU!"
I turned around in his lap and grabbed his face between my hands.
"But you didn't!"
"Only because Alice stopped me."
I sighed, resting my forehead against his.
"Edward please, I admit I was really fragile back then, but I'm getting stronger every day now. Can you just try? For me?"
"Bella, it isn't just about the fact that I might break you. I grew up in a time where it was forbidden to court a woman without asking for her father's permission. I was taught to believe that sex before marriage is prohibited."
"So you're saying that you want to be married before we have…sex?"
"Well yeah. Bella, there has been no one else before you and there will be no one else. You are it for me and I know one day I will want to marry you and I want your virtue to be intact."
"Wait, you want to marry me one day?"
He nodded, looking at me sheepishly.
"Well, I guess I will be looking forward to the day you ask me."
I was rewarded with a huge grin, Edward's eyes sparkling with love. He lent down to kiss me again, this time forcing my lips open with his own, passion and lust flowing through the kiss. After a few minutes of heavy kissing, he pulled away.
"I swear you are going to be the death of me."
I giggled.
"You know you can't die right?"
"I'm sure you will find a way."
We pulled away from each other, settling back down. It was then I noticed that the sun was setting and everyone had gone.
"How long have we been here?"
"A couple of hours. Time flies when you're having fun."
"That it does."
We sat there appreciating the silence, until I heard a faint crying from somewhere in the field.
"Edward, did you hear that?"
"I'm sure it was nothing."
"No, seriously, what was that?"
"I don't know."
I heard the crying noise again. Standing up from Edward's arms, I looked around the field and began walking in the direction of the noise.
"Bella, where are you going?"
I didn't wait to respond, walking off towards the noise. I got about halfway across the field when the crying got particularly loud, frightening me slightly. I turned around, finding a little girl sat by a tree crying. Rushing over to the girl, I couched down besides her.
She had long red curls framing her blotchy red face from crying, her bright blue eyes swimming with tears.
"Hey sweetie, are you okay?"
"I lost my mommy."
"Aww baby, it's okay. I will help you find your mommy."
I opened my arms to her and she scrambled into my embrace. Picking her up, I balanced her on my hip calling out for Edward. He appeared by my side seconds later.
"She's lost Edward. She can't find her mom."
"Then we will help find her."
I looked down at the little girl who was sucking her thumb.
"Hear that princess, we will find her."
Edward lent down, so he was around her height.
"What's your name gorgeous?"
She giggles slightly.
"Katie."
"Well Katie, shall we go and find your mommy?"
She nodded yes.
Together, we walked off, around the field, singing songs and cheering Katie up while we looked for her mother.
"I've got a lovely bunch of coconuts, here they are standing in a row. Big ones, small ones, some as big as your head!" I belted out with bouncing Katie on my hip.
"Bella, please don't sing again."
I stuck my tongue out at him.
"KATIE!"
We spun around to see a young woman rushing up to us.
"MOMMY!" Katie squealed in my arms.
"Oh thank God. Thank you so much for finding her."
"It's our pleasure. We just heard someone crying and found her by a tree."
I passed Katie into her mother's arms.
"Katie, say thank you to the nice people for looking after you."
"Thank you Bella, thank you Edward."
"It's quite alright darling." Edward cooed, wrapping an arm around my waist.
We waved goodbye to Katie and her mother, watching them walking away. I leant into Edward's chest taking a deep, relaxing breath.
"What's going on inside that beautiful mind of yours?"
I looked up at Edward, resting my chin on his chest.
"Just thinking…"
"About what?"
He asked placing a kiss on my forehead. I took a pause how to phrase my answer.
"Bella, you can tell me anything."
"Edward, I want a baby."
