A/N: If you've noticed. The rating for this story is now Mature, you know what that means ;) . I'm not Stephenie Meyer.


Everyone took a seat at the table. Emmett and Jasper dug right into the food, while Alice and Rosalie kept giving me side-glances. I could feel my blush getting deeper and redder with every passing second. I was definitely caught. We made some small talk over the meal. Well, mostly they did. I was too nervous to say anything. The next thing I knew, the dinner was over and Edward was standing up, grabbing my hand to pull me up with him.

"Everyone I have an announcement to make." He said. I felt a surge of sickness as we were about to tell everyone about our engagement. But then I looked at Edward and he was so happy. And I was so happy. I wanted nothing more than to marry the love of my life. "A couple of weeks ago, I took Bella out to dinner." He said before taking in a deep breath. His hand actually began trembling beneath mine. I couldn't believe that someone like me could ever do that to Edward Cullen. "And I asked her to marry me." He said as giddy as a school girl.

"And I, of course, said yes." I said before holding up my left hand that I had been trying to hide all night. Alice quickly jumped up and grabbed my hand.

"Let me see that!" She said. I was expecting some sort of outburst of anger. Instead when I looked at my best friend, her eyes were laced with tears. "Oh, Bella! It's so beautiful. I'm so happy for you!" She exclaimed before she hugged me. "Did you pick out this outfit on your own?" She whispered. I nodded meekly, trying not to cry of the sheer joy I was feeling. "Good job." She giggled.

As soon as Alice let go of me I saw that Rose was next in line to inspect my ring and hug me. She was less explosive than Alice, but that was to be expected. I looked around to see Emmett and Jasper patting Edward on the back. "Congratulations, Bella." Rose told me sweetly.

"Oh! This is so exciting! When are you thinking you will have the wedding?" Alice asked Edward and I anxiously.

"Um. I actually hadn't thought too much about it. I was kind of counting on you and Rose helping me with that. I mean you are my maids of honor." I said. I hadn't anticipated that they would have thought it would be anyone else.

"We are?!" Alice asked, jumping up and down. Like it wouldn't have been obvious. They had only been my two best friends for the longest time.

"Thank you, Bella. That means a lot." Rose said much more coolly than Alice. I once again leaned in and hugged my two best friends.

"There's so much to do!" Alice said, suddenly overwhelmed. "Flowers, and dresses, and a venue, and cake, and limos, and tuxedos, and a guest list." She panted. I couldn't tell if she was extremely happy, or miserable that I'd hoped she would help with all of that. Knowing Alice, I would have to place my money that she was probably excited.

"Alice." Edward's velvety voice cut in. "You have to swear not to tell anyone. I know your parents are friends with Bella's parents, and my parents. And we're not telling them until Thanksgiving when they're all up here." Edward instructed. That was the first time I'd heard that plan. I was excited to tell Charlie, he still felt eternally grateful to Edward for saving my life from Sam and Jacob.

"I promise. Thanksgiving is only three weeks away, I can make it." She nodded furiously. Jasper chuckled at Alice's energy. They were so in love. I was surprised they hadn't tied the knot yet.

"I can't believe I'm so happy for you, Edward. I mean, you're practically marrying someone who has been like a sister to me. I would remind you to take care of her, but you've already proven yourself enough for me." Emmett said as he raised his glass for the second toast of the night. I delicately sipped on my wine. I didn't like alcohol all that much, neither did Edward.

"I think Alice, Bella, and I should get together this weekend and start planning this thing out." Rosalie said. I nodded my head in agreement. I was actually excited about it all. Even the dress.

"And Alice, don't let Bella talk you into anything just because it's less expensive. I'm funding this wedding and whatever Bella wants, Bella will get. I'm trusting you two to call her out for lying about liking nice things." Edward said right in front of me like I wasn't there, causing me to pout. He leaned down and gave me a soft kiss causing a chorus of "awws" to come from the small crowd. "I mean it, sweetheart. It's only one day. I want this to be perfect for you, and us." He whispered as if I was the only one in the room this time.

"Don't worry. If she's eyeing something, I'll make sure she gets it." Alice said holding up two fingers for scout's honor.

"Good." Edward said.

I glanced at the clock, it was already 9:30. I hadn't noticed how much time had passed.

"It's getting late." Edward said to suggest politely for everyone to leave. They all began to pack up their things. Edward and I walked all four of them to the door, giving them hugs and receiving their last congratulatory comments for the time being. Once they were all gone I took in a deep sigh. Alice hadn't murdered me, so the night had gone perfectly. I was going to marry Edward, and everyone was happy about it. I slipped out of my uncomfortable heels and left them by the door.

"My feet, they're free!" I joked toward Edward who looked amused as he began clearing the dished off of the table. "Let me help you." I said as I ran the water in the sink and put the soap in.

"Thank you." He said before taking his place next to me. Edward and I had a lot of moments like that. We didn't have to feel the void of silence with mindless chatter. We could sit next to each other and be quiet. We just enjoyed each other's company. Edward began whistling my lullaby, causing me to smile.

"You haven't played for me in a while." I told him. I didn't want it to sound like an accusation, but I couldn't help the look of sadness that crept on to my face. Edward abruptly grabbed my hands from out of the sink and dried them off gently. There was a smirk on his face as he dragged me into our spare bedroom, which really had nothing in it but a baby grand. He quickly sat on the bench pulling me alongside him.

"I'm sorry I've been so busy, love." He said apologetically. I didn't intend for him to feel guilty and I felt a small stab of my own guilt as I realized that was the effect I'd had on him.

"It's okay. I've been busy, too." I said before placing a kiss on his cheek. He smiled slightly before his fingers began playing against the keys of the piano. Every time I heard it I could swear it was even more beautiful than the last. After he was finished I hadn't even noticed that he was staring at me intently.

"What are you thinking?" He asked, truly curious.

"Just that I'm really lucky to have you. And I can't believe we're getting married." I answered truthfully. I looked Edward in the eyes and suddenly his eyes were burning with passion. I'd seen this look a hundred times before, and it never got any older. Without speaking Edward picked me up and carried me to our bedroom.

He set me down, but held me steady. He began softly kissing my lips. He would take my bottom lip in between his and gently suck on it. He then trailed soft kisses across my jaw line and down to my neck. He moved up to the sensitive spot right below my ear causing me to shudder and moan lightly. I could feel him smile against me, obviously proud of what he could do to me. He stopped kissing me, much to my dismay. He took my face in between his large hands, and just stared into my eyes for a moment.

"I love you so much, Bella." He said lovingly before he attacked my lips again. His kisses were more passionate this time. I parted my lips and felt his tongue slide gently into my mouth. He unzipped my dress and let it drop to the floor, leaving me in my white lace panties and bra. He ran his hands down the sides of my Torso, resting them at my hips. I began feverishly unbuttoning his top to reveal his perfect chest. Are lips had never broken apart. As soon as I managed to get his shirt off I began kissing his chest. He tasted unlike anything else. "mmm, Bella." He let out a shaky moan. Hearing him say my name only prompted me to unzip his slacks and watch them fall to the ground right next to my new favorite dress. I slowly backed up until the back of my knees hit the bed. And, in a way only I could, I fell onto it in a not so sexy way bringing Edward on top of me.

He didn't seem to notice as he again began kissing me down my neck and chest, harder this time. When he got to the delicate lace of my bra he circled it slowly with his fingertips causing me to tremble. I sat up slightly so he could get it off of me. As soon as he slid it off he began gently kissing my breasts, never quit making his way to the center where he knew I wanted him most. He reached up with his left hand and once flicked his thumb over my nipple causing me to gasp. "God, Edward. That feels so good." I said shakily, my head wasn't absolutely clear. He shifted upward slightly so he could finally take my hardened nipple into his mouth, and when he did I could feel his hard arousal through his boxers. I began to whimper slightly at the sensation of his work on my sensitive breast mixed with what I knew was waiting for me beneath the elastic band of his boxer shorts. I remembered the first time we ever made love. I was terrified, and he made it absolutely perfect in every way. And now it was like I was made for him, I had only been with Edward and I would forever only be with Edward.

He temporarily made his way back up to my mouth. Kissing me deeply and nibbling at my bottom lip. "You're so beautiful, Bella. I can't wait until you're my wife." He said with a smile. I could feel his finger slide under the top of my panties. He began slowly sliding them down my legs, leaving a trail of kisses as he did. I couldn't take it anymore, I needed him.

He once again came back up so we were face to face. "It's not fair that I'm completely naked, and you're not." I complained, be he silenced me with a kiss. I could feel his large hand moving up my thigh. I gasped as he placed his fingers in between my legs. He began ruthlessly teasing my entrance and my clit with his fingertips. I moaned his name loudly as he did this. "Edward, I need you." I panted. I expected him to keep on teasing me, but instead he slipped out of his boxers and got all the way on top of me, spreading my legs even wider apart than they were.

"You have no idea what you do to me." He had to audacity to say. How could he even talk about what I did to him as I was laying beneath him out of breath. He placed his erection at my entrance before swiftly sliding about half of himself into me. He gasped at the contact before sliding back slightly and making his way back inside. He did that a few times until he was completely filling me. I locked my arms around his neck. he made eye contact with me as he continued to make love to me faster and faster. At first it was awkward, of all the times I'd made love with Edward, he'd never looked me straight in the eye while doing it. But after a few moments it just became really intimate. I'd never noticed how intent he looked while he moaned my name over and over, and I wondered idly what he was seeing on my face.

Then suddenly he stopped looking at me and attached his lips once more to the spot below my ear, he knew that would make me come. He began sucking on it harder and harder, his thrusts were matching the pace of his kisses. I began calling out for him louder and louder. The muscles in my lower stomach grew tense, and he and I both knew we were about to lose control. He was grunting and moaning in between his devilishly good kisses on my neck and it was apparent that he was coming. I felt him shudder almost violently above me and the sensation made me reach my release, too. I yelled out his name and unintentionally clawed his back. He collapsed on top of me before sliding out, and getting beside me. He held me tightly to his body. He looked glorious, covered in a slight layer of sweat.

"I love you so much." He said again, as he pressed a kiss to my forehead.

"I love you, too." I replied. I gently wrapped my feet in between his when I noticed something. "Edward?" I giggled.

"hmm?" He said.

"Are you still wearing socks?" I asked.

"Yeah." He said with a chuckle. "Let's climb in the shower." He said, and I couldn't decline.

A/N: Okay. First lemon ever. Hope it wasn't too dirty, I'm sorry if you like to read the smutty stuff but I can't really picture Edward saying he wants to "Fuck" Bella, or anything like that, so I hope I was able to capture Eddy, without being boring. Review?
