Chapter 37: "Our"

EPOV

It was not a dream, I was at the beach house with Bella in my arms and my grandmother's ring was on her finger. She was sleeping so peacefully, she was beautiful in every way and I could not wait to marry her. I could not wait to start a family with her. All though I knew we still had some quirks in our lives to iron out, none of that matter to me now. All that mattered was that I was in love; so hopelessly in love with her. Whatever else was thrown our way; I know we will get through it.

Not wanting to wake her, I slowly wiggled her out of my arms and went to call Alice. I knew that she was dying to know what happened. I was not going to say anything about the engagement. I wanted to wait to announce that but I at least needed to let Alice know that Bella was okay. I went into the bathroom that was attached to the master bedroom. I shut the door so I would not wake up Bella. My phone rang and I jumped.

"Hello?" I whispered

"Edward, oh thank god. Rose is in labor meet us at the hospital." Alice said breathlessly.

"WOW. Um…" I thought for a few seconds, running my free hand through my hair. "We will be there in an hour." I replied hanging up the phone.

I walked out of the bathroom and towards the big king size bed. Bella was on her side, she had her white tank top and her cute little boy shorts on. She was lying on her side and hand her hands tucked under her cheek. She looked so adorable.

I crawled on to the bed, I was on my knees and I bent down and moved her silky brown hair away from her neck. I bent down and kissed her neck then whispered in her ear.

"Bella, get up my love, we are going to have a niece."

She moaned and turned her body so she was on her back. Her eyes were still closed. I grazed my nose on her cheek. I went back to her ear.

"Rose is at the hospital; our niece is on her way." Our niece, I loved that way that sounded. Bella was officially going to be a part of my family she was going to officially be mine.

She reached out, grabbed my neck and pulled me to her.

"I like the way our sounds."

"I do to." I replied kissing her nose.

"Let's go." I said getting off of her and grabbing her hand to help her out of bed.

"Edward, this is exciting. I am so happy for Rose and Emmett. I am going to get cleaned up first then we can leave." She walked towards the bathroom and shut the door.

I sat on the edge of the bed in a daze. I could not wait to share all my life with Bella. Her love was all I cared about, all I needed. I started to day dream about our future. Bella and I getting married, buying a house, having kids, growing old together.

I heard a big bang in the bathroom and I was abruptly brought out of my thoughts. "OW, damn it." I laughed knowing she bumped into something. I stood up to and walked towards the bathroom, I heard the shower turn on and the shower door shut.

I opened the door and walked into the bathroom, I could see Bella's beautiful body through the glass. She had her head tilted back letting the water run down her face. I opened the shower door as quietly as I could. I stood there and watched as the water drip over her naked body. She put her hand over her eyes, wiped the water away and opened her eyes.

"AH" she screamed

"You scared the crap out of me." She said playfully pushing me. I grabbed her arm and pulled her close to me. She wrapped her arms around my neck and our lips met.

"So much for being there in an hour." I joked

"I am sure they won't mind." She said pulling me closer to her.

There is such an extraordinary feeling of being this close to Bella. No matter when or where we make love, it always feels like the first time, but there was something this time that was different, it was incredible. It was as if I was feeling her for the first time and her me. I could tell she felt the same way it was written all over her face. It was as if we were experiencing something new with one another and when we both hit our climax we stood their gazing into one another's eyes.

"I can't believe I finally have you again." She whispered.

"You will always have me, that is a promise." I whispered back.

We finally made it to the hospital. We headed up to labor and delivery to meet every one at the waiting room.

"Do you want to announce our engagement?" I asked as we were riding the elevator.

"Yes, I do. I want to shout it to the world." She said happily.

My heart skipped a beat when I heard the excitement in her voice. She was truly happy and I could tell that she had no more doubts. We were meant to be and we both knew it.

I reached over and pushed her against the wall. I kissed down her jaw line to her neck.

"Edward Cullen you are being very bad right now." She teased

"I know it's just…you are amazing, last night was amazing, this afternoon was indescribably amazing and now the fact that you just said you want to shout our engagement to the world…god I love you."

The elevator stopped at our destination and the doors opened. She smiled and took a hold of my hand.

"Edward?" She said as we walked of the elevator

"Yes." I replied turning my face to look in her brown eyes that were shining like stars.

"I love you to." she murmured

Everyone was in the waiting room except for Rose and Emmett of course, Rose's parents and Jasper. Alice shrieked and ran up to Bella. You would have thought that they have not seen each other in months. They were hugging and crying.

"How is Rose?" I questioned my father.

"She is progressing very quickly. We will have our granddaughter in a matter of hours." My dad reached over and grabbed my mom's hand. I watched as they gazed into one another's eyes and I knew that they had the kind of love that Bella and I had. After 29 years of marriage they were still so much in love and expecting their first grandchild. I could not help but picture Bella and I in 30 years, still happy and still in love just like my parents.

When Alice and Bella were done hugging and crying, they walked towards us. Bella was biting her lip, she looked so cute when she did that, I reached out and she took my hand. I squeezed it gently and gave her a small smile reassuring her there was nothing to be nervous about.

"Hi Esme, Carlisle."

"Bella honey you look radiant, so happy so in love. Oh Bella I am so happy that you and Edward were able to find your way back to one another. " My mother said hugging Bella.

"Yes you do look exceptionally happy." My father added hugging Bella as well.

"Well, I am I truly am." She reached over and I grabbed her waist and pulled her to my side.

"Carlise. Esme. I hope you guys know that I love your son." Bella looked over at me and stared in my eyes. "I have loved him since the first day he looked in my eyes. I never meant to hurt him." She winked at me and looked back at my parents. "I was young and confused and….Please just know that I love Edward with all my heart and I will never hurt him again."

I could tell Bella thought that my parents were angry with her but they were far from it. My parents respected Bella and her decisions. They still loved her just as much as they did the first day she walked into our lives.

"Bella dear, please do not feel like you have to explain yourself to us. We did not and will never judge you. We love you like our daughter and we are so happy that you found your way back to each other. Even it was not the best way for Edward to confess his love for you." My mom smirked at me, she gave me the speech the day Bella went to see James.

"We are so very happy for you two we love you both very much." My mother embraced Bella in another hug. When the parted, she took a hold of her hands and looked down at her left hand.

"Is…..is this my mother's ring?" she questioned with tears in her eyes.

Alice came bouncing over and grabbed Bella's hand.

"If you guys will have me, I would love to be your daughter in law." Bella sounded so sincere and my heart soared when I heard her ask my parents for permission to be their daughter in law. She was so adorable. He cheeks started to blush and she had an enormous smile on her face.

"There is no one else in this world that I want more for my son than you Bella. We would be happy to call you our daughter." My mother said. She was crying, she walked over to me and gave me a big hug.

"Oh my baby is getting married." She cried out.

"Mom, I am the youngest not Edward. So that makes me the baby" Alice joked she came over and gave me a hug as well.

"Son, I am so happy for you." My dad said shaking my hand and pulling me into a "guy" hug.

I went back to Bella's side and she leaned her head on my shoulder. I kissed her temple. Jasper and his parents came walking out of the double doors. Alice ran up to Jasper and announced our engagement. We got our rounds of congratulations from every one.

"Esme, I just came out to get you, Emmett and Rose is asking for you." Mrs. Hale said to my mother.

"Well we will see you guys when the baby is here." My mom said walking away with Jasper's mom.

We all sat down and waited. Bella and Alice were talking a mile a minute like they have not seen each other in years. Bella was holding onto Alice's hands smiling the biggest smile. I sat back at watched her expressions talking about how they were all going to be sisters now, planning and discussing the rest of the summer and talking about our wedding.

"Bella." Alice asked seriously and I immediately felt my heart sink. I knew she was going to ask where she was going to finish her last year of school. We had not talked about that yet in fact we had not talked about any of it yet. We still had a little over 2 months before I had to get back to school. I took the summer off from my internship and I was not due back to Boston till Sept 3rd.

"I'm transferring to Boston University." Bella stated.

Was she serious? Did she just say she was going to move to Boston? We have not even discussed our future plans and without any hesitation, she was ready to move to Boston with me. I was so happy but I did not want for her to give up her dreams for mine.

"Bella can we talk out in the hall for a moment?" I asked. I was so excited that she wanted to move to Boston but I did not want for her to feel like she had to. We would work this out somehow.

"Sure." She said standing up We walked out to the hallway and she turned to look at me.

"What's the matter Edward? I thought you would be happy that I wanted to move to Boston."

"Bella I am. It's just…"

"She's here, my daughter is here" Emmett came running out of the room.

Everyone came running out of waiting room to greet Emmett.

"She is beautiful, she is so beautiful. She looks just like Rose, she has blond hair. Wait till you guys see her." He was gleaming with happiness.

"Let's go, she is waiting for everyone." Emmett said and we all started to walk to the room.

"This is so exciting!" Bella said squeezing my hand.

We walked into the room and Rose was in the bed sitting up holding my niece. My mom and Rose's mom were sitting her on the couch they looked so proud. Rose looked exhausted but the smile on her face proved that it was all worth it.

Emmett went over and took his daughter from Rose. He walked over to where we were standing.

"I would like for you all to meet Julia Hale Cullen." Emmett said in a hush tone. He looked very proud as he held his daughter. We all took turns holding her and admiring his beautiful creation.

We stayed at the hospital for about an hour with Rose and Emmett but Rose was tired and Julia was starting to fuss. We said our goodbyes and left Rose and Emmet to rest and enjoy their new addition.

Bella and I went out to dinner with Alice and Jasper. Alice wanted us to go back to the house but we wanted to go back to the beach house for the night since we still had all everything there.

I wanted to continue our discussion about Bella moving to Boston. Although that is what I wanted more than anything in this world, I wanted to make sure that Bella was making this decision because that is what she wanted. She was very close with her brother and she spent just about every weekend with Marissa and Charlie. I did not want to take that away from her, I wanted her to know that we had other options and we can and will explore all of them.

We were both exhausted from the day, even though we did not do anything; it was still a long day. We got back to the beach house and immediately went up stairs. Bella put on her boy shorts and tank top and I put got into my boxers. I got into bed and Bella crawled right up next me. She snuggled her face in my neck and I wrapped my arms around her and kissed her head.

"Edward, do you not want me to move to Boston with you?" her voice was so soft and had a hint of rejection in it.

I sat up and she sat up right next to me.

"Oh Bella, of course I want you to move to Boston with me. I just want to make sure that you are ready to move across the country. I do not want to take you away from your life here. I do not want you to feel like us living in Boston is the only option, we have others."

"Edward. Boston is your dream, graduating from Harvard is your dream and I am going to follow you wherever you go."

"Bella, I thought Boston was my dream, but I realized that you, you are my dream and being with you, marrying you, loving you is what I dream about. If Seattle is where you want to be then that is where I want to be. All that matters is that we are together. I can go to medical school here, we can be close to both our families. Boston is not our only option."

"Edward, I want to go to Boston, really, I do. I want you to finish school there, I can get a teaching job after I graduate and then when you are done, we can move back up here if that is what we both want. But Edward, going to Boston with you is something that I know I want to do. Besides," She looked down and started to bite her lip I knew she was nervous. I reached my hand out ad pulled her chin up so she was looking at me.

"What is it?" I asked

"Edward I do not want to face any one at school, James was 'Mr. Popular' and…please Edward, let's just get out of this town and start fresh in Boston just you and me." I could see the sincerity in her eyes. She really wanted this and I wanted it as well. I wanted to take my Bella to my home in Boston and start a life with her.

"Then to Boston it is." I said embracing her in a kiss. She kissed me back and I pulled her on top of me.

Her phone started to ring she tried to get up to answer it, but I held her waist.

"If it is important, they will call back." I mumbled into her mouth.

"What if it is Emmett?" She put her hands on my chest and I let go of her waist.

"Damn, you are right."

She stood up and grabbed her phone from on top of the dresser. "It's Alice." She said looking at the caller id.

"Hey Alice, what's up?"

There was a pause and Bella came over and sat on the bed.

"Alice calm down, stop crying, and tell me where you are and what happened."

A/N Uh oh a famous CM cliff hanger. Why is Alice crying? Stay tuned to find out.
