Sorry I haven't updated in a while. My laptop was on the funny side. LOL.
Enjoy! All things to do with Twilight belong to S.M.
Chapter 28: Good times.
Me and Edward went Christmas shopping. We were struggling about what to buy for the twins and their imprints. Jane was now like a daughter to me and Edward. We loved her so much and she'd changed so much after she left the Volturi.
She every now and again dropped hints of what to get them. Often it was either a new Samsung flat screen for hers and Seth's room or a laptop. Apple had just released a new range of them in all different colours. Me and Edward thought about it and said yes to the idea of new laptops. We thought we might as well get each of them a new one. The PC's we got were getting a bit slow.
Me, Alice and Rosalie went shopping for Christmas gifts. I bought Edward a new guitar and a new musical book. It had all the classics in but had about one hundred pages of black bars he could do some composing. He'd lately been working on Renesmee's and Leo's new lullaby. He was writing them down in a small A5 writing pad. I knew he would appreciate some actual musical bars.
Also we bought him some electronic equipment. Alice and Rosalie got him a new iPod touch; I got him an iPhone as his old mobile was getting a bit out dated. I knew he would like it. I had it engraved on the back in the Apple store it said;
To the man who holds my heart for all eternity, Merry Christmas, all my love, Bella xx
They'd now started to do engraving in all sorts of fonts. I looked through the book and chose one called Zephyr. I really liked it and I knew Edward would too.
I didn't know what he was getting me, even Alice said she couldn't see, I could always rely on her to tell me things too as she couldn't hold her own water. I wanted to know to if my present lived up to what he'd bought me.
The 25th of December was on its way fast. Me and Edward went out to the Apple store to buy the new laptops. Everyone in the shop looked shell shocked at how many we'd bought. Six in total. Two pink and black damask ones for Nessie and Jane. A blue and teal one for Leah, two green ones with the La Push wolf emblem in printed onto it for Jake and Seth and finally a deep blue one with a small Cullen crest in the right corner for Leo. Jane and Nessie's had a small Cullen crest on it too in the right corner. We knew that they'd like them.
When we arrived home we went into the living room. The kids had the house to themselves again, but they did something completely different to what we thought they'd do. They decorated the tree! In all different colours the room was lit up. It looked amazing!
We stored the presents under the tree once they all went to bed. The manager in the Apple store gift wrapped them for us to save us some valuable time. Me and Edward stayed up quite late watching TV. We snuggled up on the couch in the dark living room. The only light that was present was the light from the burning and crackling fire and the TV's light. I could have stayed there for all eternity if I wanted to.
"Bella, I'm really struggling on what to get you this year. I want to buy you something big, but I don't know what." Edward said as he pulled me on to his lap. I kissed him lightly and laid my head on his shoulder. His arms held me tightly, I didn't want to move. "Please Edward, I don't want anything big. Although… I have seen them new Sony eReaders. They look quite good and well my books have almost completely perished. So if you want you could get me one of them" I said as I leaned back. He smiled and nodded his head.
I hoped my present- which was now under the tree without Edward's knowing- would suffice for him. His phone had been dropped, smashed, kicked and whatever else could happen to a phone happened to his. Hopefully he'd take better care with this one.
Christmas day arrived soon. Luckily for us this year me and Edward didn't have to force down the rancid meal. The kids clicked about the whole Santa thing when they looked about nine. They all loved their presents form us. I looked at Edward as I was struggling to find mine. He took my hand and lead me to the bedroom.
He picked me up bridal style and put me onto the bed. He came out of our closet with about five huge boxes. I looked at him, confused. He told me to open them in the order he laid them out.
The first one which I opened had a small necklace inside it with the Cullen crest on it. "It's 18ct gold love. I had it specially made for you." Edward said as he put it round my neck. I cupped his cheek from behind me and kissed him. I loved it. The next one was a voucher for Selfridges and Co. worth $3,000. I told him not to spend too much on me! The third one was my eBook which I asked for. Present number four was a small map of the house, this one really confused me. He said that I'd need it for present number five which was a key.
I followed the map which Edward drew. It lead me to the garage. I pushed the door open to find a new car right in front of my eyes. A Ferrari California in lipstick red. My eyes almost fell out of their sockets. "Oh my God Edward! I bought you a crappy little iPhone and you bought me a brand new Ferrari!" I said as I launched myself at him. I hugged him tighter than I thought possible.
He shown me all the features on it whilst still dazzling me. I was overwhelmed by it. He took me back into the living room where the TV was on. Like last year the family was coming round. Esme was kind enough to make the kids a Christmas dinner.
The day passed us by quickly, it was a very "loud" night in the house. Every upstairs room was locked. We all agreed on something though, that it was the best gift we could have.
So...? Tell me what you think :)! R&R's are loved.. ;)
