CHAPTER up!!! 25.... this is also me seeking Luv2WriteSoMuch 's forgiveness
I had started to get excited even though I was stumbling and walking around in the forest with no way to know where I was going. I wasn't sure why I didn't want to go in the first place, but I had changed my mind. I was just sure I wanted to have some fun with my one and only love, Edward.
"Can you see it yet?" Edward asked
"See what?" I asked
"You'll see the next time you come." He said with a mysterious tone to his voice
"There's gonna be a next time?" I asked slightly joking
"Well, If you like it" He said" And I have a feeling that you will"
"Well I guess we'll just have to wait and see" I said
"Oh, no we won't have to wait" He said "We're here"
"In the middle of the forest!" I replied sarcastically, really un-impressed
"Give it five steps forward." He replied cooly
I took a deep breath and predictable took 5 steps forward. My 4th and 5th steps brought me in to a small, but circular meadow. It was surrounded by trees with flowers around the edge . Lost in my thoughts I had forgotten about Edward.
"What do you think?" He asked
"I love it" was all I could manage to get out.
"Good" He said with a smile "That's what I was hoping for. Was it worth the surprise, hike, and the wait?" He asked
"Well actually I think it was" I said still taking in the beautiful surroundings
"Good now are you ready?" He asked
"For what?"
"The box!" Edward exclaimed
"Oh wow I can't believe that I forgot about that" I said "Let's open it"
"Edward, wow" I almost yelled
The box was packed with about anything you could imagine. There was a blanket on the top that Edward had pulled out, unfolded, and layed down in the grass. Next was some snacks that alike had packed along with 2 strawberry SOBE's. Then he pulled out scrabble, a deck of cards, phase 10, and a notebook and pen for score. When he pulled all of that out I thought he was done but then he pulled out two water bottles, 2 spoon, 2 forks and a note that read:
Dear Eddy and Bells,
I wanted to make sure you had
everything you needed. Plus Esme
glad to cook. There is Egg salad
PB&J sandwiches chips and drinks.
Have fun, relax, and stay out late.
*Alice*
"Oh Alice" I said
"Ya" Edward agreed "I've had this idea for a while but she kinda went above and beyond"
"That's Alice" I sighed
"Sure is" He laughed
"I Challenge you to a game of phase ten!" I exclaimed as I grabbed the cards and designated score pad.
"Bring it!" Edward yelled making us both laugh
He shuffled half of the card while I shuffled the other half. We played for who knows how long and Edward ended up winning, but only by a tiny bit. I then challenged him to a rematch. We played in an intense silence both time but when we were both on phase 5 i got hungry as did Edward. We simply leaned over and opened the containers of food and grabbed the forks and spoons and started eating we laughed and talked and started playing when we finished our sandwiches and all we had left were chips.
"OK you beat me this time" Edward said in defeat
"Beat? Beat?" I said "I did not beat you I creamed you!" I yelled
"Ok whatever" Edward said
"Oh no not whatever I murdered you" I said laughing at myself
"Ok I'll admit it you creamed me" Edward said both of us laughing.
"I think we should play speed or golf with the deck of cards" I suggested
"I've never played golf and don't want to get 'creamed' again "He said with air quotes when he said creamed "But I can beat anyone at speed" He finished
"Well I don't believe we've ever played so bring it" I said ready for the competition.
We played until it was starting to get dark. It was tied 4 wins to 4 wins. I had never seen this competitive side of Edward and I was sure that he had never seen me play like this. Together we decided that scrabble without a dictionary was not a good idea. It was time to leave because neither of us wanted to have to have to try to find our way through the forest while it was dark and cold.
All in all everything worked in our favor. It didn't rain or get to cold and the grass, for once, wasn't soaked from the previous night. I was glad that we had this chance to relax. With the stress of the wedding I though we were going to fold under the pressure
