Bella groaned as she heard a knock on her door.
"Bells, wake up! You have a visitor."
her ears perked up.
"Edward."
she whispered.
"Okay, Charlie. Tell him I'll be down in a sec."
"Okay."
She threw on a pair of jeans and a blue off the shoulder top. She brushed her hair quickly and threw it up in a ponytail. She ran downstairs so fast, she surprised herself. She had forgotten about the speed she gained by the change.
"Hi Edward!"
she beamed.
"How'd you sleep last night?"
she glared at him.
"Great, Edward. I slept great ."
"Good luck with your hiking trip, Bella."
"Thanks Charlie."
Edward and Bella left the room, golding hands as they walked.
"Did you bring the Jeep or the Volvo?"
Bella joked.
"Both."
Bella stopped and pulled Edward back by his sleeve,
"Both?"
he snickered
"Both."
Bella sighed and pulled herself closer to Edward.
"Are you sure?"
"Nope."
Bella smiled as they kissed each other softly. It was different then the last time, Bella thought. There wasn't a feeling of restraint between them. As they broke apart, Bella sighed. She wrapped her arms around Edward and laid her head on his chest.
They climbed into the Jeep and started to drive,
"I thought you said you brought both."
"The other one disappeared."
Edward answered with a completely straight face.
"I believe you."
Bella murmured
"What?"
"I said I believe you."
"Why?"
Bella turned to him and smiled.
"Because you are a magician."
Edward smiled at her, stroked her hair, and turned back to the road. After a few more minutes, Edward stopped. He opened his door and stepped out. Then he came around and helped Bella out. He held Bella's hand and walked a ways. Bella took a deep breath, and Edward stopped.
"Bella?"
Bella looked down at her hands, but Edward lifted her chin.
"You're shaking."
Bella started to say something, but nothing came out.
"We don't have to. We can find another way."
Bella fell into Edward's hand and began to cry.
"I'm sorry Edward. I can't."
"It's okay. I'm sorry. I'm sorry for doing this to you."
"Edward."
Bella whimpered.
"How many times do I have to tell you."
"I know. I'm sorry."
"Okay. I-I-I'll guess I'll try."
"Are you sure."
"Yes. I'm sure."
