Disclaimer: Twilight is not mine. No duh.
Authors Note: Wow, this did a lot better then I expected. A lot of people stayed with the story and to those people I say THANK YOU PEOPLE! See I mean it because I wrote in caps. Do you see were I am going with this? No. Okay a lot of people don't, but still bear with me. A lot of this was written at 1 am and I usually go to sleep at 9 so….
'Let me see the ring.'
"Why? Do you not think my taste is good enough?"
'Ha ha. Very funny. I just want to see. I have to make sure that you aren't going to be sending Bella to an early grave.'
"I already am."
"I meant that it had better not be too expensive."
"I know and no it is not. It is good enough for my tastes." Until I buy the wedding ring. "But is low enough in the price range so that Bella will be thoroughly impressed, but still alive."
"Okay. You still have to show me." Sighing, I got the box out and showed it to him.
"You would put Alice to shame." I grinned at that. With the thought of Bella with me for eternity I think that I would be grinning a lot more.
We reached the house quickly and Esme was there to meet me at the door.
"What does it look like?"
"You will have to wait, or ask Carlisle. He knows." She looked disappointed so I quickly restated. "I want to have things set up, and I still have to go to school."
She nodded her head and I ran upstairs.
The first thing that I did was decide that I would write her a letter to tell her to turn around and then I would propose. I was looking in my closet for an envelope and found a ship that I had worked on.
When you had only yourself to pay attention too, you have a lot of free time on your hands and have plenty of things that you can spend time on. Just then I had a moment of inspiration. I should give it to Bella.
I quickly got a bottle and put the ship in it. (AN2: I have no idea how people do this, but I always thought that it was cool) Then I had been carving a piece of wood, made of me and Bella. I put that on the ship too.
Then I made a meal that would make even Bella happy that I had done this for her. I was finished after a while and even to someone that doesn't eat it looked good.
I glanced at my watch and saw that I had barely enough time to get to school in time for lunch. I ran down the stairs, yelled a goodbye to Esme and Carlisle and ran out the door. Since I had no car I would have to run to school.
After checking around and making no one was around I dashed off. I stayed in the woods and made it in record time to the school. After making sure that I had no leaves or sticks on me, I dusted myself off.
I walked into the school and headed to the lunch room. I knew that something was wrong because Alice tensed up and I knew that she knew I was there. The next second I images were flashing through my head.
Bella wasn't paying attention and someone bumped into her which caused her to tripped. Her tray flew out of her hand and fell on a teachers head. She slid and then hit her head on the table, with enough forced that it knocked her out.
I ran, as fast as I could without getting spotted to the cafeteria, but I was too late. Bella had already tripped. I watched as my love knocked herself out. Me and all of my family rushed to her side.
She wasn't seriously injured, just a slight bump. The teacher who Bella had thrown her tray onto came over. She had potatoes in her hair and what was supposed to be meatloaf sliding down her shirt. I had to try not to laugh.
"Is she okay?"
'Poor girl. She really has no coordination at all. I hope that she isn't hurt.' That was good. 'My shirt. I just bought this too. I hope that you can wash it out'.
'I'll help.' I glanced at Jasper and nodded my head yes. Instantly I felt a feeling of trust wash over everyone. That would be very useful.
"Yes she is okay, but maybe my father should check her out." I made sure that when I said this I was looking at her and thinking about what Bella had said about me dazzling people made sure that I was extra dazzling. Makes so sense but it is true.
All she managed to do was nod and I heard Emmet chuckle and then Alice said, "That was cheating Edward."
"It worked didn't it." I picked up Bella and carried her out. "Alice were is my car?"
"I'll bring it around." I waited for a moment and then sure enough my car came speeding at me. She opened the door and said get in. I was about to protest when she said, "How are you going to take care of Bella if you are driving?"
Damn she had a point. "Fine." I walked to the backseat and sat down with Bella's head in my lap and Alice drove to the house.
I pulled out my cellphone to tell Carlisle that we were coming.
It didn't even ring once before he picked it up.
"Hello."
"Bella knocked herself out and we are headed back over to the house."
"Okay. I swear I don't know how you kids get such good grades with you guys missing all of this school."
"Ha ha. Very funny Carlisle."
"I know. How far away are you guys?" I glanced out the window.
"'Bout two minutes."
"Okay I'll meet you at the door. What do you say, bag of ice and some rest?" I looked at her head and then said.
"Make it a really big bag and some aspirin. She is going to wake up with a headache if she doesn't get some medicine."
"Okay I'll be waiting." I hung up the phone and stroked her hair. I hoped that it wouldn't be too bad.
We pulled up to the house and I carried her inside. I was shocked and almost dropped Bella when I saw that my siblings had made it here before me.
"What are you guys doing here?"
"We wanted to make sure that Bella was okay."
'I thought that it would look weird if only one of us was still at school. I don't really care about the human.' This came from Rosalie. Glancing at her, I growled. It sounded low and threatening, she had better get a new attitude about Bella because I was not about to stand here and watch as my girlfriend be depressed because one person doesn't like her.
Carlisle came running down the stairs then.
'Sorry about that. The hospital called. They want me to cover the night shift.'
"Well I doubt that me, seeing her unconscious will do much good. She looks fine. You can take her up to your room or leave her on the couch. When she wakes up tell me so I can look at her."
I picked Bella back up and then ran up to my room. Once there I gently set her on the couch. Alice was apologizing so much that I was sure that she was going to give me a headache.
'Sorry, sorry, sorry, sorry, sorry, sorry, sorry, sorry, sorry, sorry, sorry, sorry, sorry, sorry, so-'
"Alice, it's okay. I get it your sorry. I understand. There is nothing that you could have done anyway. You would have run too fast and then that would be very very bad for us and we would have to move."
"Gosh sorry." She had a hurt look on her face and it made me feel so bad.
"Alice I am sorry for snapping at you. It's just that what if it happens again."
"What her falling? Yes that will definitely happen again."
"No Alice. What if you have a vision too late and I can't save her."
"It won't happen Edward. You are planning on changing her and marrying her, and when those things happen I doubt that you will ever be apart again. By the way, I love the ring that you picked out. Don't worry; she'll love it." Then she walked out of the room.
I glanced back at Bella and brushed some hair out of her face and I started thinking. What was I going to do with her? I really hoped that she was still my Bella when I changed her. I wanted her to stay the same but at the same time I wanted her to change, but only for the better.
Emmet then came here and gave me a pair of fake vampire fangs and a packet of watermelon flavored fake blood.
'Gag gift. It will throw her off and then she will be really surprised.' I grinned at this and put these things in a drawer by the bed that was filled with some photos and a couple of clothes that I could grab if I was in a hurry. More then usual anyway.
I saw her eyes flutter and then open. I saw the shock on her face and then the undying love that was always there.
"Bella, you're okay." It sounded like a question and in a way it was because I needed to know. She was alright wasn't she?
"Edward. Wow. I must look a mess. Where am I?"
"You are in my house. When you were knocked out I came in and saw you. The teachers wanted you to go to the nurse, but me, with a little help from Jasper convinced them that we should take you to see our father. You know, with him being a doctor and all."
"Oh." I could see that she was preparing for the question that I was going to ask. Even though I knew that she couldn't; every once in a while it seemed like she could read minds.
"So Bella. What happened to your face?" I was being sarcastic and we both knew it.
"Why don't you ask Alice? She knows what happened." Ow good comeback. Had to say that her wit was pretty high up on the things that I loved about her.
"Because Bella you are my girlfriend and I wan to here it from you. Not my sister." I leaned in closely and breathed on her, and then I looked her in the eye, knowing that I was going to get a confession from her one way or another.
"That's not fair you're cheating, and you are going to laugh when I tell you. I know that you are. You always do."
She was right, but I kept my promises and we both knew that.
"Will it make you fell better if I promised not to laugh?"
She spaced out.
"Bella."
"Fine." So she told me what had happened in my absence. I had to admit that it was only a little amusing and I didn't laugh, I only smirked.
"My poor, clumsy Bella. I should probably kiss it and make it all better. Don't you think?" Just as I started to lean forward, I heard footsteps and then my door was thrown open and Alice walked in.
"Oh my god Bella I am so sorry. I was going to warn you, but you had already tripped. You are okay right?"
"Yes. It is okay Alice; it's not your fault. I probably would have tripped anyway."
'Is she really okay?' I nodded my head.
"Carlisle wants to see you. He wants to see if you have done anything other then bump your head."
"I'm fine, but if he insists." We walked down the stairs and into the living room. Carlisle was waiting on the couch.
'Is she okay?'
I said quickly as fast as I could, "As far as I can see."
"Bella, come over here and let me see your head. I heard that you hit it pretty hard." Bella walked over to him and he looked her over. He touched the bump and saw her wince, and we already knew that there was no blood there.
"Okay Edward you can take her. She seems alright to me. If she feels dizzy, lightheaded, or otherwise sick bring her to me. I will be at the hospital; they asked me to cover the night shift. They asked because they wanted to make sure that I had enough sleep. I almost laughed, but then I remembered that they wouldn't know why."
'Will you guys be okay while I'm gone?' I nodded my head.
I picked her up and ran to the room. "I got you something."
"I know Alice told me that you were going too." My face fell. So she already knew. Damn Alice I was going to have to exchange words with her. How am I supposed to surprise Bella if she is always giving away my secrets?
"So it's not a surprise."
"Of course it is. She told me that she didn't know what you were getting. All she knew is that you were getting me something. So are you going to wait all day or are you going to give it to me?"
"Who is so anxious for surprises now? I remember you telling me that you hated surprises." I liked this. Maybe I should have Alice hint at surprises from now on.
"I do, but I want to know what it is all the same. So please will you give it to me." She pouted and looked adorable and cute. There was no way that I would be able to resist, but I could tease her.
"Are you trying to look cute?"
"Maybe." Coy
"Good because it is working." I kissed her and then blindfolded her with a scarf that I had next to my couch. I then carried her down the stairs and set her on the ground in the back of the house.
I then ran back into the house and grabbed the gag gifts and then wrapped the boat. After that was done I ran back downstairs.
"Okay. Now on the count of three you can take the blindfold off. 1….2…..3"
She took the blindfold off and then just stared at the gifts in my hands.
"This is my surprise." She picked it up and looked at it. "Wow. This is way under your usual price for surprises." I grinned.
"Bella you are always complaining about how I am always buying stuff for you so decided why not listen to you."
"Wow. So why did you have to blindfold me and then take me outside. You could have showed this to me anytime, anywhere?" She looked confused and even though it was a little mean I was a little happy. She would never even think of what my surprise was.
"Bella you would have to be insane to think that this is all that I got you. Really after everything that I got for you, and all of the complaints that I got from you. Do you think that I would change my ways? You are worth more then $2. If I had my way you would never have to worry about anything, because you would let me buy you everything, but alas that has yet to happen."
She had no idea that I loved her and would do anything for her. Even the world would not be enough to give to this angel on Earth.
"So are you going to give me my real surprise now?"
"Yes." I then picked her up and ran back into the house, and then the kitchen.
On the table there was a dinner set for two. On one side there was a plate and a glass of sparkling juice and on the other there was just a plate and glass. I tucked her into the chair and lit some candles.
"I feel underdressed. You should have told me so that I could have at least fixed my hair." How could she be so oblivious to her beauty?
"And spoil the surprise. No way. Plus even if you haven't brushed your hair in hours you would still be the most beautiful creature on this Earth." When I said this I meant it with every fiber in my being.
I walked into the kitchen and got the plates with the food and brought it to where Bella was waiting.
She ate everything and loved it. I could tell.
"Did you like it?"
"It was wonderful."
"Good. Now I can get you your real surprise." I was so nervous that if I could have I would have fainted. Then confusion registered on her face.
"What, I thought that this was the real surprise?"
"Nope." I then ran upstairs and grabbed the necklace box and the boat, and ran back downstairs.
"Here open this one first." I handed her the boat and waited for her to open it. What would her reaction be?
AN2: This is the longest chapter that I have ever written in my life. No this was not fixed. I hadn't updated so I felt bad and I don't think that this is too bad. I have to ask you something guys. I need you to be very pushy and pestery. I have to leave for three weeks on July 16. I need to finish this and the sequel because I won't be able to update while I am gone. Please bear with me.
