AN: Hi guys. Heres the next chapter. I had to throw in some medical lingo into this chapter. I'm a nursing student so I know some stuff ahaha. I thought it would be cute if Edward and Carlisle had a little medical chat: Father teaching son moment. Anyways I hope you like it! Thanks for the great comments and reviews. I know some of you were wishing the last chapter was a bit steamier but I promise we will get there at some point. Keep reviewing! I'm already working on the next chapter and if you're lucky it may be up later tonight!

Chapter 14

"When you look at Clark Kent when he's working at the Daily Planet, he's a reporter. He doesn't fly through the air in his glasses and his suit"- Gene Simmons

Edward's POV

I was awoken by the sound of my cell phone ringing in my bedroom across the suite. I didn't want to get up but I knew I probably should seeing as it was already 9:00am. I took a quick glimpse at Bella to make sure she wasn't awake before I let her out of my grasp and bolted to my room to answer my phone. Of course, by the time I reached my room the ringing had ceased. I checked my caller ID. My dad had phoned. I quickly dialed his cell number and waited for his greeting.

"Hey Son!" he said as soon as he flipped open his phone. I knew he was in his car: the radio was blaring in the background.

"Morning Dad. Are you just getting off a shift now?" I asked.

"Yeah. It was a bad shift too. Newborn girl with Tetralogy of Fallot. Do you remember what that is Edward?" he questioned.

"I think so. Obviously it's a heart defect but it has four abnormalities associated with it: ventricular septal defect, pulmonic stenosis, overriding aorta, and right ventricular hypertrophy. Newborns are usually brought into the hospital looking cyanotic or blue hence it is a probable cause of blue baby syndrome. Is that right dad?"

"Dead on the money. You are truly your father's son. Edward I am so proud of you. Harvard is gaining an excellent student." He said and paused for awhile before speaking again.

"That's kind of why I was phoning Edward. I made a call to the office of the registrar yesterday while I was at work. They've agreed to let you and Bella pick your courses ahead of the other students. You could call it favor I guess but I wanted you and Bella to get into the courses you wanted and get the best possible schedule before things fill up. You have an appointment with a lady named Dianne at 1.00pm this afternoon. I hope this doesn't interfere with any plans you and Bella may have today. I'd really appreciate it if you go".

"Dad that's great! Bella will be really excited about that. Thank you for doing this for us. I was planning on giving Bella the grand tour of the grounds today anyways so it fits in perfectly with our schedule" I said

"You're very welcome son. I'm glad this will work out. Now there's something else I want to talk to you about. Do you have some time to chat?" he asked me.

"Yeah I've got time" I said. I knew Bella was still sleeping. "What do you want to talk about?" I asked

"Well I was talking to Rose a couple of nights ago and she happened to let me know that you were house hunting down there. I guess you forgot to mention that tiny detail to me….". I slapped my hand to my face. I had totally forgotten to tell my parents I was looking for a place to live with Bella while on this little trip. I felt like a moron. I was just about to apologize to my father when he started speaking again.

"No matter though Edward. I'm perfectly fine with that idea. I actually prefer it much better. Dorms and aspiring medical students don't usually go well together. Anyways what I wanted you to know is your mother and I will be very happy to pay for the house. You just need to fax us the papers when you've made your decision. Nothing is too expensive either Son. Buy the place you and Bella love. It's going to be you're home for the next four years…" he said with a crackly voice. He was getting emotional and I knew why. The baby of the family was leaving the nest. A sad day indeed but I knew my father was thrilled about me going to Harvard as well.

"Dad have I ever told you that you're the best father ever? And that I love you with all my heart?" I said

"A few times yes" he laughed. "I love you dearly son…"

"I know. Thanks for everything dad. It means the world to me and it will for Bella to" I said genuinely.

"It's my pleasure kid. So I'll let you go now…I'm just pulling into the driveway. Please be safe down there. We'll be seeing you in a couple of days. Have a good time and say hello to Bella from your mother and I" he said.

"Will do. Say hi to mom for me! And Alice and Jasper if they're around. I'll call you later on if I find a place today" I said.

"I'll tell them you and Bella say hello. I'll be home all night so keep me posted son. Talk to you soon" and with that I heard him shut his car off and slap his cell phone shut.

I checked the time on my cell phone. 9:30am. I still had time to order breakfast for Bella and I, shower and get ready. I decided it was better to shower first and made my way to my bathroom. I looked at myself in the mirror before undressing and stepping into the shower. I looked like shit. First I was wearing these glasses which I hated but then I remembered Bella announcing that she loved them. "I'll wear them until we leave the suite" I promised myself. I'd do anything to make Bella happy. I also had huge bags under my eyes but the shower would hopefully help to clear them up. Then I noticed on my neck a huge hickey. I laughed about it before shrugging it off. "I don't care who sees it…" I said out loud and stepped into the glass shower. I soaped up pretty quickly with the body wash I had placed in the shower last night and washed my hair with Alice's designer shampoos. I hopped out of the shower and dried off quickly. I secured the towel around my waist and made my way to the sink. I brushed my teeth and shaved. I lightly dried my hair with the blow dryer and gelled it up. I walked back to my room and began sifting through clothes I had placed in the dresser last night. I pulled out a pair of plaid boxers, threw my towel onto the bed, and slipped them on. Next I grabbed a pair of cream shorts and a black t-shirt from the drawers and threw them on. The elastic of my boxers showed slightly with these shorts. "Bella will enjoy that" I said to myself as I scooted over to my closet where I had all my shoes lined up. I slid on a pair of black flip flops, grabbed the towel off my bed and headed back to the bathroom. I disposed of the towel and put my glasses back on. I sprayed a little bit of cologne on and jetted out of my room. It was practically 10:30 and I needed to order breakfast and get Bella out of bed.

When I stepped out of my room I heard the shower running in Bella's room. I had one less thing to worry about. I ordered breakfast from the hotel and they told me it would be up shortly. There was really nothing else left to do so I made my way to the patio and sat down on one of the chairs basking in the sunlight.

Bella's POV

I had gotten out of the shower, brushed my teeth, and blow dried my hair. Alice had packed me a straightener so I figured I'd used it today. It didn't take long for me to finish doing my hair and I decided to move onto makeup. I followed the same pattern as yesterday except I opted for a raspberry lip gloss. "I wonder how Edward feels about raspberry?" I laughed to myself. I had decided to let yesterday slip out of my mind for now and to just focus on a new day.

I hadn't bothered to unpack my suitcases last night so I ploughed through them looking for some clothes to wear. I picked out a pair of light denim short shorts and a white jersey halter top that had quite a deep v-neck. I wanted to make Edward drool. I also picked out a hot pink lacy strapless bra and the matching panties. I quickly got dressed. The shorts Alice had packed for me barely covered my ass but I didn't care. The halter top showed a bit of the lace from my bra in the front but I thought it looked good. Sexy actually...very sexy. I rummaged through my luggage again looking for shoes and came across a pair of hot pink thong sandals that matched my bra perfectly. I slid them on and put a pair of silver hoops in my ears that Alice had packed me. I grabbed my watch from the side table and some bangles I had also discovered in my luggage. I did a quick check in the mirror. " I look damn fine" I said out loud and walked into the main area of the suite.

I could see Edward was sitting on the patio. He already had ordered breakfast and had it plated for us. He was sipping his coffee casually and he had his glasses on. He looked amazing just sitting there. He didn't even have to try like me to be hot…it ran through his veins apparently.

I slid open the slider door and walked onto the patio. Edward turned his head to face me. He gawked at me for a minute and then managed to close his mouth. He got up from his chair and pulled me close to him.

"You look amazing" he whispered in my ear before kissing me hard on the lips.

"Yummy…raspberry. I do enjoy that flavor too" he kidded with me. I figured he would. He never let me out of his grasp but let his hands trace all over my body. I kissed him again and eventually we separated.

"Go ahead and get eating Bells. We have a big day ahead of us!" he said. I sat down to join him at the table and we ate silently. Eventually I couldn't take the silence anymore.

"Edward why are you wearing your glasses still? You hate them!" I said

"But YOU love them Bella. That's why I'm wearing them" he justified. I blushed.

"I'm taking them off when we leave the suite though" he laughed.

"That's fair enough" I said as I began to pick up our breakfast dishes and place them back on the service cart. House keeping would deal with it when they came in later on. Edward led me back into the suite and asked me if I was ready to go. I told him I just had to grab my purse. He needed his sunglasses, phone and wallet so we decided to head separate directions and meet back in the living room. In a matter of minutes we had regrouped and we're heading out the door and down the elevators. Edward didn't have his glasses on. Sigh.

We reached the lobby and waved to Henry who was at the front desk. Edward asked the valet to retrieve our car and in a matter of seconds our monster of a vehicle appeared in front of us. Edward opened the passenger door for me and helped me get in. He hurried around to the driver's seat and hopped in. The car was idling so he quickly put his seatbelt on and put the car into drive. He lowered his sunglasses onto his face and stepped on the gas. We were out of the parking lot in no time. Edward sped down the road at rocket speed. I wondered how he never got pulled over.

When we came to a red light I felt his hand rubbing my very bare thigh for a moment before he grabbed my hand in his. Chills went up my spine. Edward always made me feel like I was melting.

"Do you know what were doing today Bella?" he asked me as the light turned green and the car started moving again.

"Nope! But I'm sure I'll like it" I said sweetly.

"Oh you will. Today we're going to see Harvard. I'm giving you the grand tour. Carlisle has also made some arrangements for us" he said while taking a quick glance at me and then returning his eyes to the road. I was super excited to finally see Harvard but I was curious about these "arrangements".

"What kind of arrangements are we talking about here Edward?" I asked politely

Edward grinned as he spoke. "My dad called in a favor. We're getting to select our timetables before any of the other students. He also informed the registrar's office that you most definitely will be attending Harvard come the fall. We have a meeting at 1:00. This is a big deal sweetheart". This was a big deal. We were getting special treatment and I wasn't going to complain. I was worried though. I hadn't even looked at the undergraduate calendar for Harvard.

"That's amazing Edward! I feel so special! I hope you thanked your father for me…" I said

"You are special Bells and yes I did thanked him already. He says hi by the way, so does my mom" he said as he squeezed my hand. I blushed again but decided to keep talking.

"So how far is Harvard from here anyways?" I asked

"We'll be there in less than ten minutes. The campus is going to be deserted too since schools out for summer break. It's the perfect time to visit" he explained.

In exactly ten minutes our car was pulling into the main entrance of Harvard University. I peered up at the gigantic "Welcome to Harvard" sign and it suddenly hit me that Harvard was going to be my new home.

Edward's POV

I could see the excitement in Bella's face as we pulled into Harvard's main entrance. I parked the car in the nearest parking space. Since school was out, all normal parking rules were suspended. I pulled the key out of the ignition, hoped down from the car and placed the keys in my pocket. Bella had already jumped out of the car and I closed the door behind her.

"Ready for the tour?" I asked her with a wide smile. She nodded and started to pull me further onto the campus. I showed her all the lecture buildings and we entered the ones that were open. She had to sit in every lecture hall we had access to. I thought it was cute. She was going to fit in perfectly here. Next I showed her all the libraries and Harvard had a lot. I focused on the medical and humanities libraries. That's where we'd be spending most of our time. In the medical library I dragged her up to the top floor. I had something special to show her. I led her to the individual study cubicles and told her to sit at one. I pointed to some text that had been scratched into the desk.

"C.C loves E.M" she read out loud and then thought about the initials and gasped.

"You're parents?" she asked me

"Carlisle Cullen loves Esme Matthews" I said cheerfully. "My dad etched that into the desk one night when he was studying. He'd only been dating my mom for about a month" I laughed. Bella traced the engraving with her finger tips.

"That's beautiful" she whispered admiring what my father had written nearly 30 years ago. "I didn't know your mother went to Harvard…" she said

"She didn't" I answered. "She went to a private all girls university close by. She met my father at a party. Love at first sight so I'm told" I said with a grin.

"I know that feeling" said Bella softly. I don't even think she had realized she had said that out loud. It was thrilled to know that Bella had fallen in love with me the moment we met just like I had with her.

"Shall we continue our tour love?" I asked while escorting her out of the library. I continued to show her the fitness centre, special monuments, dorm rooms, stadium, and medical clinic. The clinic had been named after my father seeing as he had donated the money for its creation. I had one more special spot for Bella to see before we went to the registrar's office. I pulled her towards a huge oak tree that stood in the middle of the campus.

"This is where we'll graduate you know…" I told Bella. "The ceremony is always outside" I continued while Bella sat down in the grass.

"There's also something else special about this tree" I said to Bella

"What is it Edward?" she asked with curiousness in her eyes

"This is where my mother proposed to my father…right after he graduated" I said with a huge smile. In my head I was thinking about the picture that was published in my father's yearbook. It was a picture of my father in his cap and gown and my mother in a beautiful dress kissing under this tree. Someone must have snapped it when they weren't paying attention. They cherished that picture.

"Oh my" Bella said examining the beauty that surrounded her. It truly was a beautiful spot.

"I know. It's a special place for my family..." I said.

"Your mother proposed to your dad?" she asked me with a puzzled look while she stood up and walked around the tree.

"You know it! She was always unconventional. My dad was going to start his residency in New York. She didn't want to live without him. She figured she better promise herself to him forever. He obviously accepted her proposal and the rest is history" I said while grabbing Bella's hand and kissing it.

"I love this place" Bella whispered.

"Me too" was my response. We stood there in the silence for a long time just holding each other. This was unbelievable. I was walking the same grounds my parents did when they were in love with the love of my life.
