And I couldn't have been happier.

For a while we talked about normal things, like music, school, even some of the people and teachers at school. Of course it wasn't totally normal because Edward was able to give me insights that I'd never have known without him. He'd heard some of their thoughts and he was a music lover, he'd even been alive through it all.

He leaned in and gave me a kiss and I thought I was going to melt. I realized that I'd been holding my breath when he finally leaned back and I exhaled.

Edward tried to hold back a smile, "You are so cute." Was all he managed to say before he broke out laughing.

"What!" I asked indignantly. Surely holding my breath wasn't something to laugh at, at least not like he was.

He stifled his laughter as best he could then replied, "Nothing." And he looked away trying to force a smile from his lips. Well now, I couldn't let that be. He couldn't laugh at me like that. Oh no…He'd get what was coming now. I sat up quickly planted a kiss on his lips –a good one if I may say– pulled back and leaned away from him. That shut him up fast. He leaned in towards me, but instead of returning the gesture, I stretched and got off the bed. He gave me a puzzled look and I looked away. I knew that if I looked at his eyes I was done. He was off the bed and in front off me in an instant. I turned and walked towards his CD collection and began flipping through it. Edward grabbed my waist and pulled me into him close. I pretended to be unaware of the enticing sent that was now filling my nostrils and I, nonchalantly, fixed mychap stickand gave a sigh. He smiled as though he'd won. Yeah Right! He bent down to kiss me, and I tilted my head down at my feet and he kissed my forehead. I held back my smile and he let a low purr out at me and raised me up above his head.

That's when I freaked out. I screamed and clutched at his hands praying, stupidly of course, that he wouldn't drop me. He was smiling as he began to dance around the room as if I was his partner and I didn't rely on the laws of gravity to keep me on earth. I began to calm down and realized that he was humming a tune. He put me down and gave a coy smile.

"No fair." I muttered meekly and turned away.

"That was plenty fair." I could hear the smile in his voice. "At least compared to what you did."

I felt myself blush. "I didn't do anything!" I replied.

He pulled me in close and I pushed into his body noting how solid and cool he felt.

"You probably need to go home now right?" He asked. I gave a loud gasp.

"What time is it?" I jumped backwards and looked for a clock. It was three thirty.

"Sorry, I kept you here longer than I should have." We both knew that he would be visiting me again soon; last night was the longest I'd been away from Edward in a while. And that was fine with me.

"No, it's my fault."

"Well, let's go. I'll drive" he chuckled.

"Fine," I sighed, "but first…I need to know. Why were you so mad last night." I steadied myself for anger and got none.

"I was upset."

I waited.

"And..?" I pressed.

"And I'm sorry."

"No. What was bothering you?"

"It's nothing that concerns you. It's a family matter, and I just let out my anger, it was stupid, but these human emotions are affecting me more then I thought."

"It does concern me. I know that, don't insult me, Edward." I said softly.

"I scared you didn't I?"

"Huh?"

"Yesterday, you were terrified, I could sense it." He was whispering.

"Well of course. I was frightened for you! I didn't want you to be angry, you worry me when your angry." I said honestly.

He paused. "Carlisle and Esme," he began, "They aren't very happy about the fact that you are always pressuring me to change you. They love you like family, but they know that I can't do that to you. And they know it would just give us much more stress. More than we need now."

"Edward, I want to be changed to be near you. To not have to worry if you've fed or not. To be stronger for you."

"I can't do that now. Not now. Last night I lost my temper, please, say you forgive me?" he asked.

"Of course!" I nearly yelled and jumped into his arms. I knew that that wasn't all that was bothering him but I wasn't ready for another fight with him.

We were next to his Volvo in a second and I felt my head spin. Edward put me down and I leaned to open to door and proceeded to bonk my head on the door frame. Edward held back a laugh and asked me if I was alright. Nodding I climbed into his car and rubbed my head. Sooner then I wanted to be, I was back home.

We shared a wonderful kiss and I was back inside. I could feel goose bumps on my arms and smiled at just how strangely I reacted to Edward. I saw the note I'd left Charlie was gone and I went upstairs to check my emails. My mother would die if I didn't email her as frequently as possible. This is what I found.

Hey Bella!

How is Forks? Cold perhaps? I can't wait to see you again. I miss my little Bella! So I thought that you could come and visit. Maybe for a week or so… I know you have school and all but soon it will be over and I really would love to have you down for a while! I already called Charlie and he seems fine with the idea. Plus it's nice and sunny in Phoenix. (Or so I hear…I'm traveling now). But we'll be home soon and I expect to have my girl in her room again. Plus we have a surprise waiting for you!

Miss you baby!

Mom.

I smiled at the email and thought of how I could turn her down without hurting her. Because of course I wanted to go to Phoenix, but how could I leave Edward. I couldn't leave him or take him. If I took him people would stare –more than usual– at the giant diamond that I was walking with, not to mention that that would be pretty impossible to explain to my mom. Even more impossible would be explaining his hats, turtlenecks and long pants in one hundred degree shade. Especially since he was always cool to the touch. And leaving him was definitely not an option; I was anxious just waiting for him to come back from dropping off his car. I decided to wait and talk to Edward about it.

I went to the bathroom to fix my hair, which had started to frizz, and then waited another twenty minutes for him to return before I began pacing across my room. He never took this long, always ten or fifteen minutes. I was just about to pick up the phone and call his home when he appeared in my room.

"Where have you been?" I nearly screamed and plowed into his arms to calm myself. He didn't reply and I looked at him and saw a coy smile growing on his lips.

"What?" I asked and he shook his head in return.

"Tell me." I pouted.

"Surprise!" he said finally and I saw he was holding out two cell phones. My jaw dropped as I stared at them. The phones were cute but definitely just for communication, there was no camera on it (which was good because I'd probably break it in about five minutes). They were sleek and silver, identical and gorgeous.

"One for you, and one for me. That way when were apart we can call each other!" I smiled and gave him a puzzled look.

"We're never apart for more than an hour or two at most. Why do I need to call you?" I asked.

"Because now I can reach you where ever you are, even if I'm not there. Besides you can call your mom and Charlie." He shrugged.

"Seriously, why are you giving this to me?" I asked seriously, he paused and I knew I was not going to be too happy.

"You should go to Phoenix." He tried to thrust the phone into my hand.

"How did…" my eyes grew wide, "Can you hear my thoughts now?"

He laughed, "No. Bella I came back while you were in the bathroom and saw the email." He pointed to the computer screen which had changed to a screen saver, but I knew I had forgotten to log out."I think," he paused, "you should go."

I gave him a horrified look and shook my head. "No way! I'm not leaving you, not for a long time, not for even a whole day."

"Bella–"

"No. I can't leave you. Last night was hard enough. I can't leave you for a week!" squeezed him as hard as I could as I finished.

"Bella, you wouldn't be apart from me, I could visit at night. I could run down there at night and see you. Trust me it won't be so bad." He smiled, I could tell he wasn't too happy about this but he wanted me to be as "human" as possible and I knew he wouldn't give up.

"Let me think about it."

"Fine." Then he gave me a kiss and I was suddenly very aware of his smell. All I wanted to do was freeze that moment forever. I felt the shiver run up and down my back and saw his appreciative smile. "You sure you don't want to go?" he murmured, his lips near mine, and his coolhands trailed up my spine following the previous trail of the shiver. I pulled away, I'm not going to let him win that way!, and tried to give him a cold stare, it melted in his eyes.

"Let's go out." I suggested and he feigned mock horror – I hadn't been too social now that I'd found the only person I really needed. Plus theexperience with Jameshadn't made me very trusting.

"Like with other people!" he gasped and I felt a fine red blush run up my neck and hit my cheeks. He pressed his cool hand against it and smiled at its warmth.

"No." I said with as much dignity as I could muster. "Just you and me."

"Where?"

"Anywhere." He broke into a wide grin.

"Let's be normal for a day." He suggested nonchalantly. "No more fighting or vampire stuff, just us."

"Well, it's a little late for normal today. It's almost four thirty and besides I've fainted twice and attacked your sister already." I smiled and he rolled his wonderful topaz eyes.

"Come on. It'll be fun. And we should be around other people." His eyes bored into me and I felt myself leaning in towards him. I caved, what can I say, there was only the most beautiful man in the world (to me) staring at me and I could feel my mind turning to mush.

"Well..." I sighed, I would much rather stay here with him then go out into town with other people.

"Come on" he tugged at my hand. Sometimes he can remind me so much of a little kid, but I thought if "being normal" (no vampire stuff) was so important right now then I could handle it.

He half dragged me downstairs and out the door, just in time to see Charlie pull up the driveway. Edward stopped dragging me and mumbled, "Follow my lead." Under his breath as Charlie got out of the car.

"Like you give my a choice." I whispered just as quietly and rubbed at the arm he was holding. He gave a small smile.

Charlie looked at us both very suspiciously and asked if he could talk to me privately, Yeah right. We walked in the house and looked at me as if grasping for words to form a sentence.

When it finally came I wasn't too happy.

"What is wrong with Edward and you?" I was shocked, there was nothing wrong.

"Nothing Dad. Why do you think something is wrong." I asked almost angrily.

"Your note was….very…." he trailed off and waited for me to finish. Then I remembered I'd been nearly bawling when I wrote that and not myself. I instantly spat out the first excuse I could think of, even though it made my cheeks burn.

"I'm…" then I whispered, "in that time of the month." I hinted. He took a minute and then nodded and I saw his cheeks start to get a little pink. That must be where I get it. I gave a sheepish smile and began to walk out before he noted how bad of a liar I was, he let me go.

Edward was already in the car. The second I sat down he exploded with laughter. "That time of the month?" as if it was the funniest thing he'd ever heard.

I fumed. "Privately!" I nearly yelled at him, "He wanted to talk privately!"

"I can't help what I hear." He choked back the rest of his laughter and backed out of the driveway and sped off.
