Chapter 36: A Dream?
EPOV
"It's a Small World!" Bella cried with a bounce as we neared the dreaded ride. I could ride every single ride, but I despised that one. The dancing dolls were freaky looking, and the constant song was annoying.
"Do we have to?" I said with a frown.
"Are you scared?" Emmett teased.
"No, I just find the ride pointless and annoying." I retaliated glaring at him. It wasn't scary, it was boring. "And anyway you're the one who's afraid of kiddy rides not me." I retaliated as he stuck his tongue out at me.
"Would you go on it for me?" Bella asked with the pout she knew I couldn't resist. "I've never been on it, and it's one of the classics."
"Bella, come on. I'll ride anything else you want me to." I urged as her bottom lip started to quiver.
"Please, Edward." She pleaded.
"Fine, love, but only for you." I conceded with a sigh as she gave me a quick kiss.
When we finally boarded the little boats I put my arm around her bracing for the headache I knew the song would bring. I was all for world unity, but that song was horrendous. The ride seemed to last forever as Emmett and Jasper took joy in singing each an every word of the song extremely loud. If I had disliked the song before I hated it after their spectacle.
"It wasn't so bad." Bella said holding back a laugh as we walked off. "I though it was cute."
"It's a small world after all!" Emmett continued to sing completely off key.
"Emmett, please." Rose said with a pout. "Can you stop singing?"
"Fine." He said with a frown.
"Let's go on the Haunted Mansion" Jasper said in a creepy voice causing us to laugh.
"Jasper stop it!" Bella cried hugging me as I glared at him. How dare he scare my Bella.
"What I'm just playing." He responded as we entered the small circular room for the pre-ride introduction.
I held on to Bella tightly as she buried her head in my chest. I could tell by the smiles on both Emmett's and Jasper's faces that they were enjoying holding Rose and Alice as much as I was.
As soon as everything turned pitch black Bella pulled me closer. "Nothing is going to happen, Love. It's actually suppose to be more funny than scary." I assured her rubbing her back as we neared the black Doom Buggy that would takes us through the ride.
She curled up next me practically on my lap as the ride began. As soon as she started to realize that it really wasn't scary, Emmett started to tap on the back of our car causing Bella to scream.
"Emmett!" I yelled.
"Boo!" He said as the little car turned sideways.
"I'll get you back for that!" Bella stated glaring at him.
"Come on, Bells. I was just having a little fun." Emmett whined.
"Don't do that again." She warned him curling back towards me.
"Do you think the ghost will really follow us home?" Emmett asked seriously as we stopped to have something to eat.
"It's a ride, Emmett." Jasper responded taking a bite from his burger.
"But you never know." Emmett replied before laughing.
"What's next?" Rose inquired taking a sip of her water.
"Well, we still have Splash and Thunder Mountain and the Pirate ride." Bella answered.
"We get to see Jack!" Alice cheered.
"He's the sexiest pirate I've ever seen." Bella added.
"He sure is!" Rose agreed.
"What's this I hear about sexy pirates?" I chimed in feeling a bit jealous.
"Are you jealous?" Bella inquired batting her eyelashes.
"Should I be?" I questioned as we made our way towards Splash Mountain.
"Well, if I ever do meet Captain Jack Sparrow, you might just have to be." She teased walking away to join Alice and Rose.
"She has you whipped!" Emmett said.
"She does." I agreed.
Splash and Thunder Mountain proved to have the longest lines of the park. I was becoming impatient as we waited for the line in Thunder Mountain to move. I knew the girls really wanted to ride the Pirate ride, and I needed to make sure to be near the front of the park by the time the fireworks began.

I knew something was wrong with Edward as he began to get jittery during the line for Thunder Mountain. He kept looking at his watch and sighing almost as if he was waiting for something.
"Are you alright?" I asked him.
"I'm fine." He answered with a small smile as the line inched forward.
"There's something bothering you." I replied with a frown. "Are you mad that I made you go in It's a Small World?"
Edward laughed. "Ofcourse not, Love. I can never be mad at you."
"I'm here to talk if you need to." I reminded him as we finally reached the front of the line.
"Can we get the last car?" Emmett asked the lady in the front. "It goes the fastest!"
"Sure" the lady answered as we were all directed to the back of the train.
"Keep your hands to yourself." Rose whispered to us as causing me to burn pink.
"I could say the same for you." Edward retaliated as we all laughed.
The ride was a lot of fun, and quickly became one of my favorites. The sharp turns and drops made it exhilarating, and I really wanted to go on it again. But the line was still huge by the time we got off.
"We have time for one more ride before the fireworks." Jasper announced as we neared the Pirate's of the Caribbean.
"Look at the sword!" Emmett said as he walked into the gift shop. "I can be your pirate, Rose." He said with a sexy grin.
"If you behave I just might let you." She said with a wink which caused Emmett to immediately drop the sword.
"Do you really think Captain Jack is sexier than me?" Edward asked me as we boarded the boat.
"I don't know." I replied shrugging. "I guess it depends."
"On?" He asked.
"I think Captain Jack is hot, but not someone I would date." I explained.
"He's definitely a one night stand!" Alice interjected as Rose and I nodded.
"Remind me to keep you away from him." Edward answered as the ride continued.
"We want the red head!" Emmett started to say as we passed the scene causing Rose to smack him.
"Someone is not getting lucky tonight." Jasper mumbled receiving a glare from Alice.
I had to cover my mouth to keep from laughing. Edward had wisely decided to keep his mouth shut. Even though I knew he was dieing to tease them. I was so glad I had the perfect boyfriend.
"Look it's Jack!" Alice said pointing him out.
"He doesn't look as good as in the movies." I commented with a frown.
"It's a puppet, Love. And I think I'm much better looking anyway." Edward said as I rolled my eyes.
"Someone is being humble today." I added with a giggle.
"I want to buy one of the swords." Emmett stated as soon as we got off the ride.
"You're such a kid." Rose replied as Emmett dragged her towards the swords.
"But you know you love me for it." Emmett answered kissing her as we all laughed. Even though he did behave like a five-year old, we all knew Rose would not have it any other way.
"Time for fireworks!" Alice announced as we bounded to the train station near the entrance of the park.
"It has the best view." Edward explained as we all stood on the second floor looking out onto Mainstreet USA and the castle.
I was in complete awe of the show as we watched it in each other's arms. The fireworks exploded in a sea of bright colors all around the castle. I knew at that moment that wishes really did come true, mine had come true the moment I had met Edward.
"Mr. Cullen, Ms. Swan can you come with me please?" One of the cast members said to us as the show ended.
"Is something wrong?" Edward asked obviously concerned.
"We need to speak to both of you." He said as we followed him. We were led to a small office and told to sit down as the man left leaving us alone.
"Do you know what this is about?" I asked Edward. "You don't think it's about Space Mountain?" I said feeling myself burning red.
"I'm sure it's nothing." He replied squeezing my hand in assurance.
"Mr. Cullen, come this way." The man ordered when he returned. Edward looked at me and shrugged before following him out the door we had entered.
I was left alone in the small room. I had no idea why they wanted to talk to us, and the more I waited the more nervous I got. Had something happened to Edward? Why did they want to talk to us?
After what seemed like an eternity another man dressed in Victorian attire, complete with the white wig, entered the room. "Ms. Swan, will you please join me outside?" I nodded walking slowly behind him.
We exited right onto the train station again, and I immediately noticed that the park was empty. It had been closed for almost two hours. "Your carriage awaits." The man says as he led me to Cinderella's carriage.
I was speechless as I looked at the magnificent white horses pulling the round crystal carriage. It looked to be straight out of the movie. "I don't think you have the right girl." I said not believing that this could really be for me.
"Isabella Swan?" He inquired. I simply nodded as he helped onto the carriage before climbing into the driver's seat.
I was in total shock as we began to move towards the castle. I simply couldn't believe that this was happening to me.I was probably going to wake up, and find it was all a dream. Things like these never happen to girls like me.
As we neared the castle I couldn't help but smile as I saw Edward waiting for me at the beginning of a red carpet that continued to a stage in the front of the castle. The stage was decorated with a bunch of flowers and candles. It looked breathtakingly beautiful as it contrasted with the lighted castle. The castle kept changing colors causing everything to glow.
The carriage stopped right in front of Edward where he smiled sweetly at me extending his hand to me. "Will you be my Princess for the night?" Edward asked me as he helped me down.
"Only if you'll be my Prince." I answered with a huge smile as he gently traced my face with the back of his hand. I couldn't stop smiling as soft music began to play. I instantly recognized as being So This is Love, from Cinderella.
He took my hand leading me up the stairs right to the center of the stage. "Bella." He started my heart fluttering as he spoke. "You are my dream come true. You are the reason for my existence, and I love you more than I could ever express." He continued before going down on one knee.
I felt my throat constrict as I realized what he was doing, I was speechless, and I knew this couldn't be true. It had to be a dream, the best dream of my life. But it was not real.
"Isabella, will you make me the happiest man in the universe? Will you be my wife, my friend, my everything?"
A/N: And you know I had to end it there. (Smiles innocently). I couldn't resist.
Was it what you expected? All I have to say that it's not over, and our Edward still has a surrpise.
Please review! I'm dying to know what you think. I will try and write the next chapter as fast as I can. I will try my best to post again tonight. Go on and review!
