When I woke up, I struggled against the arms holding me tightly and felt them tighten around me. I struggled more. "Bells, stop movin' so much," I heard Edward's groggy voice and I instantly stopped.
"I'm so sorry!" I said quickly, blushing and relaxing again. He sighed. "Don't be sorry," he rubbed his eyes tiredly. "Might as well get up." He released me and stood up stretching. "Am I the only cold one here?" he said smiling at me.
I laughed. "I'm cold too. So you don't have to worry," I laughed and patted him on the shoulder. "So, why don't we get some breakfast. We can talk about....well I guess our past while we're eating." This was hard to do.
He nodded and we padded to the kitchen where Esme was cooking something. She turned to us and smiled. "Good morning!"
"Good morning....Es...err...What do I call you now?" I asked her hesitantly. "Is it Aunt Esme or just plain Esme?" oh this is uncomfortable.
She smiled at me. "Whatever you feel comfortable with dear. Although I do miss Aunt Esme," she giggled. I sighed with relief. "I guess I could call you that."
Edward rolled his eyes. "Good morning to you mom," he stole a bit of the bacon from the plate and Esme swatted his hand away. "You can wait mister."
He pouted slightly and I laughed. "Do you need any help?" she shook her head.
"It's okay. I've got this. Now why don't you two go out into the dining room and talk about whatever you need to talk about," she shooed us out and we walked in complete silence to the dining room.
When we had sat down Edward was the first to talk. "Listen, I remember every single memory of us hanging out together. I'm not sure about you though."
"Yeah...It's like...the video triggered something that made me remember you....I still can't believe I forgot you..." I trailed off to think. He leaned close to me.
"But it kind of feels like we're even closer now doesn't it," he whispered in my ear. I shivered and he chuckled. "I thought so," he said leaning back to his seat right when Esme came in with food.
We sat down to eat and while munching on a bit of the eggs on toast, I thought. I don't know what to do. It feels uncomfortable now. Like....kind of like a weird tense atmosphere around us. I don't know what I'm going to do......
I looked up to see Carlisle, Esme, and Edward all looking at me. "What I do?" I said confused.
"Bella dear, we've been calling your name for a while now," Esme said to me. I blushed bright red. "Really?" I said.
"Yes, we were wondering when your going to call your father. We called him last night to explain everything but I know he has to be worried," Carlisle said to me. I nodded.
"That man may act all tough. But everyone in this town knows he has the biggest heart," Esme said smiling.
I blushed and nodded again. I stood up and took the phone from Carlisle who was smiling softly at me. This felt all too familiar. I dialed the home phone number and Charlie's relieved voice came on.
"Bella?" he asked as soon as the phone was picked up.
"Hey dad," I said sheepishly. He laughed into the phone at me. "So, umm....I remembered?" I said blushing.
"That's nice," he said laughing more. "Is that why you fainted?"
I glared at the phone. "Yeah yeah, I know I passed out."
"I love you Bells," he said and I could practically see him rolling his eyes. "Just come home soon so that we can finally open these presents," I nodded and said a quick yes before setting the phone down.
Esme squealed happily. "Oh Bella! We have presents for you and Charlie!" she ran to the hallway and came back with about ten presents.
I looked in disbelief. "Oh Esme, you didn't have to get so many! I only got you and Carlisle a present each!" I said sadly and she rolled her eyes at me.
"Bella honey, we're adults. We don't need presents for Christmas. We'll survive," she giggled and handed me the first present she saw. "Besides, I like watching people open the gifts I get them."
Opening the present I gasped lightly and Edward and Carlisle chuckled from behind me. It was a dark blue sweater that was obviously home-made. "Oh Esme! This really is too much!" I slipped it on over the thin tunic sweater I had on from the previous night's party. It fit perfectly.
She smiled at me. "Please Bella, open this one too," it was a small box with dark red wrapping. It had a tag that said from Edward to Bella on it and I unwrapped it slowly. When it was open I gasped loudly and tears came to my eyes.
There, sitting on a small cushion was a ring. I picked it up and saw a sentence engraved on it. 'To Bella, my love for eternity' The tears spilled over and I pummeled into Edward's arms, crying softly. "What is this?" I asked him hesitantly.
He held me tightly in his arms and slipped it on my ring finger. "Isabella Swan, I'm not asking for your hand in marriage. I am asking that you be mine for eternity and whenever you feel ready in the future, then I will ask you for my hand in marriage."
I hugged him tightly back. "Of course Edward!!!" I squealed happily and eeked when I heard a flash going off. I turned slowly and saw Carlisle with the video camera and Esme with a regular camera.
Giggling again, she handed me the camera. "This is your next present. I opened it for you since you were preoccupied," I blushed brightly and took the camera from her. "Thank you," I hugged her this time and smiled at her before going up to Carlisle and hugging him as well.
I opened the rest of the presents. There was a baseball uniform and I looked at them curiously. Carlisle had to explain that they played baseball sometimes in their free time. Then there was the journals that I instantly loved. The last present was something that made me giggle. It was a book full of recipes. I could barely lift it and I nearly screamed when I opened it and saw what it was.
"Thank you so much Esme, Carlisle," I looked lovingly at Edward. "And of course, I've got to thank you too," I smiled at them all.
"Yeah I love hanging out with you all but I think poor old dad needs some loving," I laughed and tried to carry everything but failed immediently. Edward chuckled at me and carried the camera, book, and baseball uniform while I got the sweater and Charlie's presents.
"Goodbye Bella," Esme smiled at me. "We'll see you soon I hope?" I nodded and made my way out to Edward's car.
Dumping all the presents on the backseats, I jumped into the passenger seat making Edward burst out laughing. "Why in such a hurry?" I glared at him. "I'm tired, want to get out of these clothes, and take a shower."
He raised his eyebrows as he pulled out of the driveway. "Well...." he began before winking at me. "We could do all of those things together. Sleeping, Getting out of those clothes, and of course, showering," I blushed bright red and my eyes widened. "Pervert!"
He laughed. "You know it."
I smiled softly at him. Unfortunately, I did know that he was such a pervert. "And I still love you," I told him. But he's also such a gentleman. And that makes me love him even more.
"Yup," and he turned on the radio, stopping the conversation.
