AN: Hello hello everyone! Alright so i couldn't help but write up another quick chapter for this story. Now, I'm hoping that most of you who are reading this have seen the movie Breakfast and Tiffany's. This chapter is kind of based on it seeing as it's my absolute favorite movie of all time and Audrey Hepburn is my idol. If you haven't seen the movie I highly recommend seeing it. However, I'm pretty sure everyone is aware of the famous opening scene of the movie where Holly (Audrey) is actually having breakfast at Tiffany's in that beautiful gown. Anyways I hope you all enjoy this next chapter and thank you so much for the reviews. I know a lot of you were worried about Edward's date and the possible incorporation of Tanya into this story...all I can say is read this next chapter...you won't be disappointed :) Mucho love xoxox

Chapter 3

Your heart just breaks, that's all. But you can't judge, or point fingers. You just have to be lucky enough to find someone who appreciates you.- Audrey Hepburn

Moon river wider than a mile
I'm crossing you in style someday
You dream maker, you heartbreaker
Wherever you're going I'm going your way
Two drifters off to see the world
There's such a lot of world to see
Were after the same rainbows end
Waiting round the band
My huckleberry friend, moon river
And me-Breakfast at Tiffany's

Bella's POV

Well, my ego took a hit. I thought for sure that Edward and I were moving forward, not necessarily in a romantic way, but at least we were working on our friendship. Edward had a right to date anyone he wanted, as did I. We were adults living our own lives and doing our own things but it didn't keep my pain at bay. My heart kind of ached for him… not because I was totally infatuated with him or totally head over heals, it was because I figured I would always be the roommate girl, the friend and nothing more.

Instead of wallowing in my sudden sadness I hopped into the shower and got ready for bed. I threw on a tank top and some boy shorts and tried to get comfortable but I just couldn't. I dragged my bed spread along with me back towards the living room and threw it over the couch. I crawled towards the TV and shifted through Edward's DVD collection in hopes of finding a classic. It appeared that he had almost every DVD ever produced, all in alphabetical order. Much to my surprise I found the collectors edition of Breakfast at Tiffany's, one of my favourite movies of all time. I popped the DVD in and ran over to the freezer in hopes of finding some ice cream. Ice cream always made me feel better. Evidently Edward was as much of an ice cream fan as I was since the freezer was jam packed of pints of Ben and Jerry's ice cream. I grabbed the container of chocolate chip cookie dough and a spoon, made my way back to couch and snuggled back into my bed spread. The movie was just about to start as I dug my spoon into my lovely dessert. I let the ice cream and the movie ease my pain…

When the movie credits began to roll I heard the door creek open. I lifted my head off the couch to see Edward tiptoeing towards my direction from the kitchen. As he passed the couch I spoke.

"Hi" I whispered as I tried to sit myself up on the couch.

"Did I wake you? I thought for sure you were sleeping…" he said as he stopped dead in his tracks.

"No, I was just watching a movie. I hope you don't mind…"

"Of course not" he chuckled. "I brought you back some dessert but I see you've already had your treat for the night…" he said while motioning to the empty ice cream container that sat on the coffee table. I blushed. He had brought me back dessert…that was sweet.

"Sorry about eating your food…." I mumbled. He rolled his eyes at me before sliding my legs off the couch and sitting down. He then proceeded to bring my legs back up to lie on his lap. He leaned against the back sofa cushions and closed his eyes, his head falling back. My body went into panic mode. This was the most physical contact Edward and I had ever had, I felt my heart start to race.

"How was your date?" I asked trying to distract myself from the fact his body was touching mine. I was pretty sure I didn't want to know about his date but I needed to say something. He let out a deep sigh before opening his eyes to look at me.

"Terrible" he said. I felt so relieved.

"Oh no. What happened?" I asked, continuing to play along.

"She was just money hungry, like most girls I meet. She practically had our future planned out tonight…" he explained. I made a face.

"I'm sorry it didn't work out" I said. He shrugged his shoulders.

"I'm used to it by now" he said while patting my lower leg.

"You'll find the right person when the time is right" I hummed, trying to make him feel better about himself.

"I really hope you're right Bella…" he whispered. We sat in silence for awhile, I felt my eye lids getting heavy but then Edward spoke again.

"You watched Breakfast at Tiffany's?" he asked while reaching for the DVD case that sat on the table. I nodded.

"It's one of my favourites…" I informed him.

"I've never seen it" he replied.

"What!" I exclaimed, startling him. He let out an uneasy laugh.

"I've never watched it. I knew I owned it but I've never bothered with it" he clarified for me.

"Well we're going to have to change that!" I announced while restarting the DVD.

"You've already watched it tonight though…"

"I could watch this movie a hundred times over and never get sick of it" I giggled.

"Alright let's do this…" he said in a way that made me feel like he was bracing himself for the worst. I laughed.

We watched the movie in almost sheer silence except for the occasional time when Edward asked me to clarify something for him. When it came to the part where Holly and "Fred" kiss in the rain Edward sighed. I figured that he thought the moment was cheesy.

"What's the matter?" I asked

"Why can't I find love like that?" he said with a slight smile as he looked at me.

"Maybe you're looking in all the wrong places…" I suggested, feeling the blush on my cheeks.

"You might just be right Bella" he whispered, his green eyes piercing into mine. I felt his finger trace the inside of my calf for a fraction of a second before he pulled away and stretched.

"I better get to bed. I need to get to work early tomorrow…" he said without looking at me. I nodded and lifted my legs off his lap. I wrapped myself completely in my bed spread and stood up. He followed after me. We walked towards the bedrooms. When I was just passed his room I turned around.

"Good night Edward" I said with a weak smile.

"Sleep well Bella…" he murmured while his eyes met mine once more before closing the door.

Xoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxo

I heard rustling outside of my bedroom door. I jumped out of bed and cracked the door open a bit. All the lights in the main part of the apartment were turned on. Edward must be up already. I glanced at my clock. It was only five in the morning.

I walked slowly into the kitchen, rubbing my eyes so I could see clearly. Edward was eating a bowl of cereal over the sink.

"Do you always eat like that?" I asked causing him to spin around quickly to face me. I saw his eyes trace over my body.

"Nice outfit" he said. I looked down to discover I had forgotten to put a bathrobe on and I was standing there in a skimpy tank top and boy shorts. I tried to cover my chest with my arms nonchalantly. He laughed before placing his dishes in the sink. I noticed he was wearing a very expensive looking black suit and a grey dress shirt.

"You look very dapper Mr. Cullen" I said while sliding in to sit on one of the bar stools that flanked the centre island.

"It's all part of the gig" he said with a wink as he leaned over the island to face me. "I was wondering if you had any plans this morning…" he said quietly while lacing his hands together. My mind went crazy. Where was he going with this?

"No I don't have any plans…" I said calmly. He reached into the back pocket of his dress pants and pulled out a small piece of paper.

"Would you be willing to meet me at this address?" he asked as he slid the paper towards me. I knew the street he had written down.

"I can do that…"

"Let's say for around ten then.." he suggested. I nodded and smiled up at him. I had no idea what he had planned. He then grabbed his keys from the counter and a bag that sat on the floor and made his way for the door.

"You get some more sleep Bells. I'll see you at ten". And with that he was gone…

Xoxo

I took his advice and slept for a few more hours. Once I got up and did my hair I debated, for what felt like hours, on what to wear for my "meeting" with Edward. I finally decided to keep it fairly casual and I threw on a pair of tight fitting, dark jeans and a long sleeve white t-shirt. I pulled out a pair of black patent leather heels from the closet and slid them on. With one final look in my mirror, I skipped out of my room, grabbed my purse and keys from the kitchen and headed downstairs. I got into my car with ease and pulled out from the building quickly since I noticed I was running late. I sped all the way to the street Edward had written down for me. It was just on the outskirts of Seattle and I'd never been there before but I knew where it was.

I noticed his Cadillac parked further up the street. I tried to get a parking space as close to him as possible but it was no use. I settled for parallel parking about five cars down. I got out of the car and threw my purse over my shoulder. I could see Edward leaning against his car now and I walked as fast as my heels would permit.

"Hey" I somewhat panted as I approached him. "Sorry I'm late". I noticed he had changed out of his suit and was one again in a pair of jeans and a t-shirt. He didn't say anything, instead he just smiled at me.

"So what's going on here?" I asked. He held out a coffee for me and shook a bag that must have contained pastries of some sort since it came from a bakery.

"Oh! Breakfast?" I asked now figuring out what he was doing.

"Not just any breakfast…." he said. I looked at him, confused. With his free hand he grasped my shoulders and spun me around. I looked across the street to see we were standing in front of a Tiffany's store. I gasped.

"We're having breakfast at Tiffany's" Edward whispered in my ear. I spun back around very slowly to see him again.

"Oh" I sighed while my eyes began to mist over. There probably was no reason to get emotional but this felt special. He was re-creating the opening scene of Breakfast at Tiffany's for me. This was possibly the most romantic thing anyone had ever done for me but I had no idea what Edward's intentions were. Edward took the look on my face as his cue to explain.

"Bella I don't know what it is, but there's something about you, something that makes me feel like I could love you and that you would love me back for me…" he said very softly. My eyes widened when I realized what he had said.

"I can love you…" I whispered back as one single tear fell from my eye. I wiped it away quickly. He smiled at me, pushed my hair behind my ears, and whipped all the other tears away that had just fallen.

"Let's go eat our breakfast okay?" he cooed while pulling me close to his side and throwing his arm over my shoulder.

Finally something felt right to me….
