Weeks after the incident with John Edward was still apologizing. He blamed him self for what happened. He said that if he never let me open the door it wouldn't have happened. I tried to tell him it wasn't his fault but he didn't believe me.
He did end up getting me a new phone. It wasn't just a cheap phone like I had before either. This was like full touch screen, full keyboard. This phone was kick ass, but not necessary. I tried to tell him it was too much but he wouldn't listen. He just said that I deserved the best.
"Where are we going?" I asked Edward after 20 minutes of driving. It was like 8 in the morning and Edward said we were going to go somewhere.
Edward chuckled, "It's a surprise," he said.
I sighed, "Please tell me?" I said.
Edward looked at me, "Just because you say please doesn't mean I'll do it," he said.
"I know," I said, "But it makes it harder to say no."
"You're evil," he said, "But I'm still not telling you."
"Damn," I said.
He laughed, "I will tell you that it's going to take a while to get there, you should sleep," he said.
"Okay," I said.
I slept until noon. Then I woke up to a headache. "Morning, Love," Edward said with a smile.
"Morning," I said.
"Hungry?" he asked, "You didn't eat this morning."
I smiled, he always took such good care of me, "Yeah," I said.
"What do want?" he asked.
"Um…" I said, "Taco Bell?"
He laughed, "Wow, like you never want Taco Bell," he said. I laughed too. Taco Bell is like my favorite. I was actually surprised he remembered.
"I can't believe you remember that," I said.
"Remember what?" he asked.
"That my favorite fast-food restraint is Taco Bell," I said.
"Of course I remember that," he said, as if I had insulted him.
"Sorry," I said. I really didn't mean to insult him.
"It's fine, Bella," he said, "I just…I never wanted to hurt you and I want to try to get you to forget what happened, but I know you never will. I told you when I left it wasn't because I didn't love you. It was because I do love you." It got really quiet and he looked at me, "You don't believe me…do you?" I didn't say anything. I mean, I wanted to believe he loved me, but after he left it's just hard to believe he really does.
He pulled into the Taco Bell parking lot; I hadn't even realized we got off at an exit. When he stopped he turning and looked at me, "Bella, I love you so much," he said, "I'd do anything for you. Be anything for you. I even kill Victoria to save you. How could you not believe I love you?" He sounded so hurt. Like he was 10 and I just took his DS.
"I want to believe you, Edward," I said, "I really do, but you left me. It's hard to believe you love me. It's hard to believe you've ever loved me."
"I love you so much, Bella," he said, taking my hand, "And if I have to spend the rest of eternity making you believe me, I will. That's how much I love you. I remember everything about you from before I left. I remember that you love Taco Bell. That you hate beer; you don't even like the smell of it. I've never known why you hate it so much, but I know you do. I know that even though everyone thinks you don't follow sports you do. You love the Yankees. I know so much about you I could right a book, Bella.
"When I was gone you were all I thought about. When I saw you if you even had a hair out of place I think I would've noticed. You're my best friend, Bella. I just want you to believe how much I love you." By the time he was done I was in tears. I leaned across the car and hugged him.
"I love you, Edward," I said.
"I love you too," he said. We sat like that for a couple minutes and then he said, "Come on, lets get you something to eat." I nodded and climbed out of the car.
"Want what you normally get?" he asked.
I laughed, "Yeah," I said, "Except I want a Sprite."
He looked worried, "You okay?" he asked.
"Fine," I said, "Why?"
"You never drink Sprite unless you don't feel well," he said.
I just smiled, "You're good," I said.
He smiled back, "I am," he said.
"My head just hurts," I said, "I'm fine." He nodded. We got my food and sat down.
Neither of us said much. I couldn't stand the silence, and I felt like a bitch for earlier. "Are you mad at me?" I finally asked.
Edward looked at me, "Of course not," he said.
"You sure?" I asked.
"I could never be mad at you," he said.
"Are you upset with me?" I asked.
He chuckled, "No," he said. I got up and slid into the booth beside him. He wrapped his arms around my shoulders. "I'm sorry," I said softly.
"For what?" he asked.
"For saying you didn't love me," I said.
"It's not your fault. I'm upset with myself," he said.
I looked up at him and kissed him, "Don't be," I said, "Please."
He sighed, "Okay," he said.
….
A couple hours later we both in the car again, acting like nothing ever happened. "Please tell me where we're going," I said.
"Nope," Edward said.
"A hint?" I asked.
"The whole families going to be there and it's going to be a lot of fun," he said.
"I always have fun when I'm with you," I said.
He smiled, "I glad," he said, reaching to grab my hand. I smiled back.
Around like two we pulled into a parking lot. I saw a sign but I wasn't sure if I read it right. "We're going to Universal?" I asked.
"Yup," Edward said with a smile. When we got out of the car the family was standing there.
"You surprised?" Alice asked.
"Yeah," I said.
"We're going to have so much fun, Bella!" Alice said while we were entering the park.
We went on so many rides its not even funny. Then Emmett insisted on going on this huge water ride. The wait was so long. We ended up getting to this part of the line were there was a ledge I could sit on. It was high up, but I could easily climb up. I didn't though because I knew Edward might have a heart attack or something.
"Edward?" I said.
"Yes, Love?" he said.
"Can you put me up here?" I asked.
He shook his head, "You're going to fall," he said.
"I will not," I said, "I'll climb up there if you don't help me."
He sighed and grabbed my waist and lifted me up to the ledge. "You're so manhandled," Emmett said.
"Well lets see," Edward said, "Be manhandled or have the love of life fall off this stupid thing. It's not a hard choose."
I just laughed. Edward looked back at me. He smiled and brushed back my hair. "What?" I asked.
"You are so beautiful," he whispered. I just blushed. He leaned in and kissed me. Of course nothing can last long with Emmett around though.
"Lines moving love birds!" he yelled.
After we got off the ride Alice insisted we go get a Hair Wrap. I tried to say no but of course she grabbed me and Rose and dragged us with her. "What's a hair wrap?" I asked.
"They wrap some of you're hair with string, almost like knotting it in your hair. It's so cool," Rose said.
"You should get blue," Alice said, "Edward loves you in blue." I ended up going with Alice's advice and getting 3 different kinds of blue.
We were on our way back to find the guys and we saw them walking up in front of us. Emmett was walking backwards in front of Edward and Jasper talking about something. Emmett saw us walking up but didn't say anything. It seemed like Edward and Jasper didn't know we were there. So I ran up behind Edward jumped on his back.
He stumbled a bit and Emmett laughed and snapped a picture. "Holy shit," Edward said.
"Who would've thought that Bella would be the thing to through off Edward's guard," Emmett laughed.
I laughed, "You didn't hear me?" I asked.
"I can't read your mind, Love," Edward said.
"You didn't smell me or something?" I asked.
"No, I was zoned out," he said.
"Oh," I said.
I tried to climb off his back but his grip tightened on my legs, "Nope," he said, "You never let me carry you, I am not letting you down now."
I sighed, "Fine," I said.
"Let me see your hair," he said, he turned to look at me and smiled, "I love it."
"Alice picked the colors," I said.
He looked at Alice, "Are you trying to kill me?" he asked. Everyone laughed.
"Aw," I heard someone say. I looked and saw an elderly women and her husband, "How long have you guys been married?" she asked.
I felt blush creep onto my face and Emmett laughed. "We're not married," I said.
"Really?" she said, "Could've fooled me. How long have you two been together then?"
"5 years," I said. I saw Edward smile.
"So cute," she said as she walked away.
"5 years?" Jasper said.
"I want it to be like you guys never left," I said.
"Me too," Edward said.
I buried my face in his neck. "I love you," I said.
"I love you too," he said.
…
Before we left we stopped at a restraint in City Walk. Everyone said they'd meet us at the hotel, so it was just Edward and I.
We were waiting for my food to come, and it was really quiet for a minute, "I got you something," Edward said breaking the silence.
"You didn't need to get me something," I said.
"Yes I did," he said. He reached into his pocket and slid me a box that looked like it had a necklace or something.
I opened it and saw one of those necklaces where they write on the rice. The charm part was in a shape of a heart it, had blue beads inside. It with beads with hearts on it them going up the necklace.
"It's beautiful," I said softly.
"Read it," he said. I gave him a confused look. Then I looked down and read it.
Marry me? It said.
I gasped. I looked up at him and he was holding a little box with a ring in it.
(A/N) Sorry it took so long to post. It took me a while to write this. It's one of my longest stories yet!
