Bella POV:
The sun was breaking through the trees surrounding the mansion and entering Edward's bedroom. I opened my eyes and groaned for it was time to get up.
Edward's gentle, smooth voice broke the silence, "Good morning, love."
I slowly rose out of bed and admired the beautiful bed sheets, not having enough time to do this last night. Edward chuckled at my antics.
This morning I was excited because it was Saturday. The day of our first date. Realisation hit me. With another groan I fell back into bed and soon enough there was a knock on the door. You didn't have to open the door to know who it was.
"Alice." Edward and I both whispered in unison.
She didn't even wait for one of us to open the door before she came bouncing into the room.
"Not now Alice. Bella only just woke up." Edward said.
"Okay, okay." Alice said backing out of the room, not even closing the door.
I was already to go back to sleep when Edward had picked me up and was halfway down the stairs before I could start to protest. Once we were in the kitchen he put me down in one of the seats. Edward began getting things out of random cupboards.
As if sensing my curiosity, Edward simply answered the unasked question, "I'm making you breakfast, love." By now I have gotten used to him calling me that.
Edward whizzed around the room grabbing objects that were needed to make my breakfast.
Esme gracefully entered the kitchen with a smile on her face. "Good morning, Bella." She greeted me.
"Good morning, Esme." I said, sleepily.
"How are you this morning?" Esme kindly asked me.
"I'm fine, thank you. What about you?" I replied.
"Good." Esme walked out of the room to give me and Edward some privacy.
Edward placed a plate of food, what looked to be good, in front of me. "Here you go, love." He said.
Thanking him, I dug in. It was absolutely delicious. How could a vampire make food that is so amazing when they despise it?
"This is delicious, Edward." I exclaimed. Edward is definitely brilliant at everything.
"It's alright, love. Anything for you."
Half of the day is gone and Alice still hasn't stolen me from Edward yet. To be honest I'm actually quite surprised.
I told Edward that I was going to go and get ready. I reached the top of the stairs without tripping. When I hear Jasper saying to Emmett, "Ha, I win! Hand over the money." I shook my head. Them two were always making bets. As I was going to open the door to Edward's bedroom, Alice came out of nowhere and pulled me to her room. I have had enough of this.
"Alice," She looked towards me from the piles and piles of clothes she has made trying to get to something, " I am perfectly capable of choosing my own clothes." With that done I felt pleased with myself and walked out of her room to Edward's to get dressed.
I put on a blue, Edward's favourite colour on me, dress with a few gems at the waist. I have never liked high heels but was forced to learn how to walk in them by Renée so I always had a pair. Luckily they were just the perfect blue. I didn't really knew what to do with my hair do I just left it flowing down to the middle of my back. Renée had bought me makeup but it never got used because I hadn't had a reason to wear it until now. Grabbing my makeup bag, I went to the bathroom to use the mirror. I didn't know how to put makeup on so I watched a few tutorials before making a fool out of myself. Once my makeup was done I looked in the full length mirror to get a better view of myself. I was proud of myself. I actually looked good for a change. I was ready and I couldn't wait to go to my first date with Edward.
I went downstairs stairs with Edward waiting for me at the bottom. Edward was wearing a black tuxedo with a tie. His hair was as dishelved as ever. He smiled my favourite crooked smile and I smiled back. Being the clumsy person I am I just had to trip on the last step. I fell into Edward's cold but comfortable arms. I blushed at my own clumsiness. There were small laughs around us. We weren't alone. The entire Cullen family was here to wave us off to wherever Edward was taking me. My blush deepened. I hugged everyone before leaving the house with Edward.
He opened the door for me like the true gentleman he is and I got into the familiar silver car. Edward went around to his side and got in. Edward drove out of the driveway. We waved at the huge, white mansion.
We soon arrived at a small road that was gradually coming to an end. It was getting darker and darker by the minute. Edward got out and opened my door. Once I got out, confusion was eating me up, Edward instructed me to get on his back. I got on his back and he immediately set off. I enjoyed the breeze pushing my hair back and the scenery zooming past me. The speed was exhilarating.
Eventually, we came to a stop and as soon as I set my eyes on my surroundings I knew where we were but it had changed so much. I liked the change. I gasped as I took it all in. It was beautiful. It was our meadow. It must have taken Edward ages to get it to look the way it did.
There was a glowing pathway that was marked with thousands and thousands of candles. Not one of them was out of place. Slowly making my way to the end of the path, gasping in awe as I noticed all the little things Edward did to make tonight absolutely perfect. At the end of the path I found an amazing gazebo, flowers decorating every inch of space possible. They were my favourite. Peonies. There was table and a set of chairs in the middle of the gazebo. On the wooden table there was a picnic basket and a bunch of flowers in a glass vase with water. I blushed. Edward had thought of everything.
We spent the evening chatting and just enjoying each other's company. I was sad when I realised that this amazing night had to finish sometime. I ate the snacks Edward had brought for me.
Edward got up from his chair and got on one knee. I gasped and prepared myself for what was to come. He pulled out something from his pockets. It was a black velvet box. Edward opened it to produce a delicate ring. The ring was made up of small diamonds in the shape of a heart.
"Bella, I have never loved someone as much as I have you. I know I have made some mistakes but that will never change the way I feel about you. I promise that I will always protect you from anything. I will never leave you and understand the choices you make. Will you be mine? Will you marry me?"Edward asked.
