For the Rest of Our Lives
AN: Before I start, I would just like to say that while I appreciate criticism and everything, I do not tolerate rude comments. I try to make dialogue as clear as possible usually after the person who spoke or some type of action given. If there are any of you who feel like my dialogue, my writing, or my Authors notes are.. "not up to par" you do not have to read my stories. Thank you. Sorry if this comes off rude.
Summary: Embry makes a life changing decision.
Pairing: Bella/Embry
Rating: T
Embry rushed around the kitchen like crazy, slightly happy that Emily showed him how to cook. He hummed a tune, setting the flowers on the table. "Perfect." He smiked. His kitchen was candle lit, a few spread on the marble counters. The round table sat in the middle, a dish of Cajun Chicken pasta and a large bowl of salad.
Embry was dressed up for once. This was an important date and he wanted to make it perfect. He turned on the stereo, playing jazz. A knock sounded at the door and Embry rushed to the door but opened it slowly. There she stood, dressed in a black topless dress that went right above her knees, black flats because she hated heels. Her brown hair was wavy as it hung down her back and shoulders. "Beautiful." He whispered mesmerized.
Bella blushed smiling softly. She walked inside gasping at the decorated room. "Oh Em." She murmured taking in the candles and dinner that plated the table. She turned towards him with a smile. "It's wonderful." She commented. Embry smiles closing the door and leading her to the table.
Bella's smiles at her favorite dish giving Embry a blinding smile. "My favorite." She whispered looking hungry. Embry moved around her in a fluid motion fixing her plate and a glass of wine. She kissed his cheek as he passed.
The two are in a comfortable silence, glancing slyly at each other. "You seem...I don't know...nervous." Bella observed. Embry shook his head. "No..I'm just anxious." He answered, his brown eyes showing the emotion he had within. Bella put down her fork and cocked her head to the side. "About?" She asked looking him over. "This." He whispered taking in a deep breath. He stood slowly, coming around the table.
Bella turned in her seat staring at him. "Em..?" She asked looking at him. Embry stood in front of her nervously. "Wait..just..shh." He whispered as he closed his eyes. He dropped down to one knee, digging in his pocket. He looked to her, his eyes shining. He pulled out a small blue box. "Bella..." he started, opening the box to reveal a small diamond ring.
Bella gasped, holding her hand to her mouth as tears flooded her eyes. "The day I met you in Jacobs garage...I've been in love with you ever since. Even after phasing...I couldn't get you off my mind. Sam said it wasn't a good idea with me being so new..but I'm glad I went to see you. Um..you don't know how much the start of my day resides in you and this isn't the imprint talking. This is me. We haven't been together long, but...I know that I cannot spend another day in this world without you. So..will you marry me?" He asked, the two holding eye contact. Bella smiled internally seeing the nervousness in his eyes.
"Of course. A million times over." She answered.
End.
