Chapter 24: History in the Making

This could be one of those memories

We want to hold on to, we want to cling to,

One that we can't forget

Baby, this could be our last first kiss

The door to forever

What if this was that moment

That chance worth taking

History in the making

We're were driving back from the airport towards my parents house. We all decided to stay there for a week, and I knew my mom and dad were excited to have Sophee stay there. Alice was driving while I was sitting in the back with Sophee and Bella. Bella was in the middle with her head on my shoulder, asleep. I was slowly running my hand through her hair, just staring at her. Yeah, creepy I know.

"You need to tell her."

I turned my attention to Alice and noticed she was looking at me through the mirror. I sighed. "I know."

She rolled her eyes. "You can know all day, you need to do something!"

"Ok, I will!"

Fifteen minutes later Alice pulled up to the house. It was already eleven, and there were only a couple of lights on. I shook Bella lightly, letting her know we were home. She stretched, smiled at me and started unbuckling Sophee slowly so she wouldn't wake her. I got out and went over to Sophee's side to get her out for Bella. It was then I noticed my parents were by the car.

"How was the flight?" my mom whispered.

"Good but long."

She nodded and took a bag out of the back my dad handed her and then hugged Bella. I picked up Sophee and rubbed her back since she began to stir. I began thinking how smart Bella was for dressing her in her pjs before flying. Just more evidence of how amazing of a mother she is.

"Edward, take Sophee up to the guest room by your room. I have a bed set up for her."

I nodded and began walking into the house, and up the flight of stairs to get to our floor. When I reached her room, I had to stifle a laugh and I rolled my eyes. My mother never did anything half way. Instead of just buying a basic bed for Sophee, she went all out with a very pink princess bed with her name spelled out above it, painted pink with tons of glitter!

I walked over to the bed and slowly lowered Sophee into. She began whimpering a bit and I began shushing her lightly while brushing her hair with my hand. She settled down and went back to sleep, snoring lightly.

"You're too good at that," I whipped around to see my dad standing there with their bags. He went and set them down on the bed Bells would be sleeping on and then took a seat on it.

"Is that a bad thing?"

He shook his head and smiled. "Nope. Just making an observation."

I went over and set beside him.

"So where are the girls?"

"They are all talking about the trip downstairs." He sighed and looked at me. "So how bad was it?"

I ran my hand through my hair. "Her parents are asses, her ex is a jackass, but her grandmother is amazing."

He shook his head. "I was hoping it would go better with her parents, but after talking with Charlie and Renee, I knew it wouldn't be."

"I just don't get how a parent could be like that to their child."

"Neither do I."

We sat there for a moment before a voice broke our silence.

"So, do I need to find another bed to sleep in tonight?"

We looked up to see Bella and my dad chuckled.

"No ma'am. Its all yours. Goodnight you two."

He left and Bella walked further into the room. I wrapped her in my arms and kissed the top of her head. "Get some sleep ok; its been a long day."

"You too." She looked up at me. "Thank you again, for everything."

I smiled down at her. "Your welcome. I'm always here for you."

I began walking out the door when an idea popped into my head. I turned back to look at her and asked, "Bella, can I take you somewhere tomorrow evening?"

She grinned at me and nodded. "Sure, I'd like that."

I nodded in returned, said goodnight again, and walked to my room, excited about tomorrow.

"So, you two are ok with watching Sophee while I take Bella out?" I asked once again.

My mother rolled her eyes and nodded. "Yes Edward, this isn't our first rodeo you know."

I sighed. "I know, i just wanted to make sure I was imposing."

"Never. We love getting to spend time with her. Plus, you and Bella need more time to yourselves. Have fun tonight!"

I grinned and raced up the stairs to knock on Bella's door. She opened it, dressed and ready to go.

"Hey," she breathed.

I couldn't quit grinning. "You ready?"

She nodded, and I took her hand to lead her downstairs. We went into the living room where my dad was watching a princess movie with Sophee. Yep, he was whipped by a toddler. Bella leaned over, kissed Sophee on top of her head, and whispered something in her ear. She giggled and nodded. I then went over to tell Sophee bye. She pulled my ear down to her mouth and whispered, "Treat her like a princess."

I grinned and ruffled her hair. "Always."

Bella and I got in the car and I headed towards the place.

"So where are you taking me?" she asked.

"Its a surprise."

She frowned. "Should I be scared?"

I shook my head and she smiled again. "Ok good."

We drove for about twenty minutes until we were out in the country. I pulled over to the side of the road and hopped out of the car to go open her door. She giggled as I held my hand out for her. "So you ready to walk a bit?"

"Only if you're ready to catch me when I trip."

I brushed my fingertips across her cheek and she closed her eyes. "I'm always ready,' I whispered.

She shivered a bit and I linked my fingers through her and led the way. We finally made it to my spot, with her only tripping once. I knew it was a great idea bringing her when I heard her gasp. We were standing in the middle of a meadow, with tons of wildflowers all around, She looked around, smiling the entire time. "It's beautiful."

I just nodded and pulled lightly on her arm to sit down with me. I spread my legs so she could lean comfortably against my chest. it amazed me how comfortable we were with each other. No hesitation whatsoever when it came to little signs of affection this way. She sighed as she laid against me and I began playing with her hair.

"This is nice, especially after the trip. When did you find this place?"

I took a deep breath. "After my freshman year. I went through a difficult time and as I was running one day, I found it."

She nodded against my chest and was amazed when she didn't press for more information, which I was grateful for. I didn't want to ruin this moment with her.

"Does anyone else know about this place?" She was hesitant with asked this.

"No, I've never told anyone."

She was quiet for a few minutes, I figured just taking in the view, until I heard her sniffle lightly.

"Thank you."

I situated myself to look at her face and saw a couple of tear trails. I reached up to catch a new one that was about to fall.

"Why are you crying? I didn't mean to make you upset."

She shook her head. "You didn't make me upset. I'm just, overwhelmed by all this. Your trust, your comfort, your willingness to let not only me, but Sophee into your life. Your wonderful."

I shook my head and leaned my forehead in to touch hers. "No, you're the wonderful one."

She giggled and sighed. "I can already see where this is headed, so let me just end the argument and say we're both wonderful."

I leaned back and laughed. She was always surprising me with her words.

We continued sitting there, watching the sun begin to set. Before we were left with no light, we began walking back to the car. Before we got to it, Bella pulled on my arm.

"Hey, what's that over there?" she asked.

I looked towards were she was pointing. "Oh, that's the old Bradley home. It sits on a farm. Its been vacant for at least thirty plus years."

I turned back to head to the car and she pulled on my arm again. "Lets go!"

"What? Why?"

"Oh come on Edward, where's is your sense of adventure?"

"Bella, the house is old and no telling what could be in there..." Before I could finish my reasons behind not going, she took off running towards it.

"Last one there is a rotten egg!"

I groaned and went chasing after her. You know, for someone who tripped while walking, she was fast and flawless when it came to running.

I saw her disappear from my sight and I took off faster. I ran up to the door and went in since she left it open.

"Bella!" I yelled. I didn't get an answer and I began freaking out. "Bella!"

"In here!" I heard her sing. I followed her voice and found her in the kitchen, looking around in awe. "Isn't it amazing?"

I sighed. "Bella, its old, dusty, probably infested with rats..."

She stuck her tongue out. "Oh come on, look past that. This house must have been gorgeous when someone took care of it. Come on lets go explore."

She took off before I could stop her, and I went after her. She was now in what I guess was the living room, sitting on the fireplace. "Can't you see it! The couch over there, an oversized chair in this corner. Oh and think at Christmas! The fire lit with the tree over there, all decorated. Beautiful!" She grinned at me and decided to dash off toward the stairs. She kept darting in and out of each room, talking about what it looked like. I couldn't help the smile that took over my face, watching her face lit up. We had stopped in what I guess would be the master bedroom. She sighed while looking around. I came up behind her, wrapping my arms around her waist. 'I know it was beautiful Edward."

"I'm sure it was."

She turned in my arms, looked up at me and smiled. I smiled back, and realized I wanted to do something.

"Bella, may I kiss you?"

Her grin got wider. "If you don't, I'll just have to kiss you."

I leaned in slowly and let my lips lightly brush hers. I grinned and whispered against her lips, "I think I'm going to like doing this."

She sighed as I pressed my lips back against hers with a little more force. We didn't rush it or go into a frenzy. It was the perfect first kiss, soft and sweet, with just a little bit of passion behind it. As I pulled back I laid my forehead against hers. She smiled, keeping her eyes closed. "Perfect," she whispered.

I laughed lightly and opened my eyes. I realized that I had to tell her now, I had to let her know about the connection I already had to her.

"Bella, open your eyes."

She slowly opened them and smiled at me. "I...I have something to tell you." She nodded. "I've tried to tell you this before, but was interrupted. I really need to let you know about this, because...well I just have to tell you."

"What is it?"

I sighed. "Bella, almost four years ago..."

I was cut off my red and blue lights flashing through the window.

"Shit," Bella said then covered her mouth. "Oh my gosh sorry! For saying that, and for probably getting us in trouble."

I laughed humorlessly as I began dragging her away, trying to figure out how to get out of there, without the cop seeing us. I just couldn't catch a break!
