Edward:

"Bella, sweetie…" I mutter as we get into bed.

"Yeah?" She questions. She looks really cute right now, in one of my shirts. I take a moment to admire her, before I remember what I'm meant to be asking her.

"What was up before? You seemed…distant?" I question her awkwardly.

"Nothing…" Bella and I have been best friends for years; I can tell when she's lying. I swear she forgets that sometimes.

"Bella, love, you're a rubbish liar. As soon as Rosalie announced she was getting married and pregnant, you seemed all…quiet…" I kiss along her jaw as I speak, hoping she'll give in.

With a sigh, she finally does. "It's annoying that we have to wait, you know? I mean, I know I love you. I've known that for years. You're it for me, I know that as well. But now…now we have to wait. And you know me, I'm impatient. I don't like waiting, especially what people around me don't have to wait." Wait…what? That was…cryptic…

"Uh, what? Am I just being stupid, or am I missing something? What don't you want to have to wait for?" I ask her, 'cause, I have no clue what on earth she was on about. Again, she sighs, before hopefully explaining herself in a less cryptic way. Hopefully.

"Don't feel like I'm pressuring you, or anything, but, Alice is already married, Rosalie is getting married. They're both pregnant. I just…most of my career goals are accomplished, and I wanted to have a steady career before I moved on in my personal life. And now… We've been in love for years, but because we've only been together for 7 and a half months, we have to wait for marriage and kids." Oh. Oh. I think I get it.

"You want kids?" I ask, a little stunned.

"I'm not saying that we have to! I'm just saying that, well, I'm 26. By the time my parents were 26, they'd already had me. I just…I definitely want kids in the future, but I don't want it to be...too far in the future." Bella tells me.

"How many kids do you want?" It's all I can think of to say. We've had conversations about our future, but never have we talked about minor details. Like how many children you want.

"What?" Bella looks shocked.

"You want kids, but, how many? We've never talked about this, and you seem to want to." It seems logical to me.

"I've always wanted a large family. So, 3 or 4 maybe?" I smile back at her.

"Ok. Well, a year from now, we'll definitely be married. I'm not telling you when I'll propose, though. And, you know, our honeymoon would be a good place to start on those 4 children you want. I know you said 3 or 4 children, but I know you. You want 4, and so do I. That means that, 2 years from now, we could have a little young'un running around. Hopefully, he or she won't inherit you're clumsiness, but you're hair and eyes would be cute. Then, I say we don't have too big of an age gap between our kids, so, as soon as you're ready, we'll start trying again. So, in three years' time, we could have two young'uns running about the place, and possibly a third in your stomach. Sound good to you?" I add the question on the end, 'cause, when I picture the future, that's what I see.

From the looks of it, that's what Bella sees, as well. 'Cause, with tears in her eyes, she jumps at me, kissing all over my face before finally reaching my lips.


A/N: Most of you guessed that was what was up with Bella ;) But what do you think of Edward's plan for their future? :D

Review please :)
