Bella's POV
I had just got done packing my cigarettes in Pride's saddle bag. We had already called and talked to Sam and Billy. They decided to come later today. So it left me some time to ride. My stomach was rumbling because I am still on strike. Pride nudged me with his nose.
"I am fine Pride." I told him climbing up on his back.
"Hey, looks like you had the same idea I did." Edward came walking over with War in tow.
"I am still mad at you." I turned away from him. Just because he thinks I am his, doesn't mean that I have forgiven him.
"Bella, love, listen for one minute please."
I looked at him. He flashed me that smile that I love. I sighed. "Fine."
"I want to show you a place that I think you will love. Please follow me. I promise you will not regret it."
"Fine." I pulled out a cigarette.
Before I could even light it, Edward snatched it out of my mouth. "Hey!"
He put the cigarette in his pocket. "None of that love." He swung himself up onto War's back. "Now come on." War started off at a canter. P{ride followed without any cue from me. We followed Edward through the forest.
What was so important to him that we had to go out into the middle of the woods. I had to admit that I was a little suspicious of this whole thing.
You need to come off of this strike Master. Pride spoke to me.
"No. I am still mad at him."
He means well.
"Are you taking his side?" I glared at Pride.
No. But you are starving.
"That's not true." I crossed my arms.
Pride snorted. Forgive me but you are. I don't like this Edward. But at least he cares for you. I can trust him to protect you.
"Bella?"
I looked up. Edward smiled and motioned in front of him. I slid off of Pride and walked toward some really thick bushed. I pushed through them. The sun was bright as I walked into a clearing full of beautiful flowers. It was breath taking.
"Do you like it?" I jumped as Edward appeared next to me.
"Edward, it is beautiful."
"I brought you here for a reason." He turned me around. "Bella, I have something to say." He took a deep breath. "Isabella Swan, I love you."
It was like I was hit with a truck. His words took me totally by surprise.
"Edward I..."
He put a finger to my lips. "And after we get all of this Horde business taken care of. I want you to be my wife." He stared into my eyes. "What do you say?"
All I could think of was the joy I felt inside. "Yes."
He hugged me close. "Thank you Bella. Just don't tell Alice yet." He chuckled.
OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
I stretched out my arms. The bed was soft below me. I could see the sun through the window in Edward's room. I rolled over and stretched out my back. My stomach growled. I needed a smoke.
Standing, I go over to my dresser only to find that the cigarettes I put there are missing. Well, at least I could get the back up ones from under the my pillow. But that was empty too.
"Edward!" I called out. This wasn't right.
"Good morning dear." Edward greeted me with my favorite smile. He came over and kissed me quickly.
I was not falling for this. "Where are my cigarettes?"
He looked down at me and smiled more. "I threw them out."
"WHAT?!" My cigarettes. He just takes them and throws it them out. "Edward those are expensive!"
"It's okay lovie. You won't have to worry about there expensiveness any more." He hugged my from behind.
"Really?" I asked nicely. He was going to buy me more.
"Yes love. Because you are quitting."
I could do nothing but laugh. "That's funny. Now give me my smokes."
"There are none left Bella. I threw them away."
He wasn't joking. I could fill the anger growing. "So help me Edward, if you do not give me my cigarettes back now, I will tear this place apart."
He frowned. "Bella, they are bad for you. Just give it a chance."
That was the last straw. I phased into my wolf and slammed my massive body into the wall. The plaster cracked and crumbled.
"Bella. Calm down." Edward said holding his hands up in what seemed like surrender.
I paid him no mind. I smashed his TV with my paw. Then I jumped onto his king-sized bed. It crumbled under my weight.
The bedroom door flew open. The whole family came pouring in.
"What is going on?" Carlisle asked at the sight of me.
"I threw away her cigarettes and she went baserk. Help me calm her down."
Hahaha. He thought he could calm me down. I found that to be hilarious.
Esme came over to me. "Sweetie, please change back so we can talk."
Esme had never wronged me. I phased back for her.
Carlisle came up next to his mate. "So, what is wrong?"
"He took away my smokes!" I growled.
Edward stepped forward. "Sweet heart, I am just trying to do what is best for you."
"You proposed to me and now that I have said yes, you think you can run my life?!"
Alice squealed. "Your getting married?" She clapped and jumped up and down.
"Yes." Edward answered her. He turned back to me. "I'm not trying to run your life. Cigarettes are bad for you."
"Give them back or else." I threatened.
"No. Bella please understand."
That did it.
Uh Oh. This can't end well. But hey, at least he loves her right. Review for me lovies and tell me what you think.
