After Jacob had left Leah was ready to get back to packing feeling as if a weight had been lifted off her shoulders. She barely had time to finish packing up one box full of her things before her husband came in with a sheepish expression on his face and sparkle in his eyes. Right away Leah was suspicious. Whenever he had a look on his face like that it meant he had something he probably shouldn't have. With sigh she raised her eyebrow expectantly waiting for him to open his mouth and tell her what he had done this time.

Edward grinned at his wife as he came to stand next her. "So I did something I probably should not have bone, but I couldn't help myself Lee."

"You never can." She mumbled shaking her head and doing her best to hide her own smile. She had to keep her expression neutral until she found out what he had done. "Are you going to keep waiting all day or are you going to tell me what you did so I can give you the proper lecture and get back to packing?"

The bronze haired male took her hand in his and started dragging her towards the door. "Packing will have to wait. You need to see this Leah. You won't be disappointed I promise. I had to get it once I saw it. I know you are going to love it."

Having no idea what he was talking about she decided to just go with the flow. She wouldn't bother trying to get out of him because if he wanted it to be a surprise no amount of bugging or threatening would get him to crack. So she got in to the car without a word and waited patiently to arrive at their destination. Deciding to keep conversation flowing she decided to tell him about the visit from Jacob. She did not want to keep the truth from him and he had a right to know because if the roles were reversed she would want to know.

"Jacob came to see me today after you left." Leah paused when she saw her husband's hands tense around the steering wheel making his knuckles even whiter than they already were. He did not say anything and she took that as a sigh to continue with what she had been saying. "He wanted to apologize for everything. I guess he thinks the baby may not be his and I have to admit that I actually felt kind of bad for the guy. Now that I have time to think about it I kind of understood why he did what he did."

The bronze haired man ground his teeth together when he heard her say this. He wasn't sure where she was going with the subject, but so far he didn't like the direction it had taken. "Is that so?"

"Yeah, I mean I may not love him anymore or anything, but I understand what frame of mind he was in. I am not saying it was the right thing to do just that I get it. He's still an ass, but he's an ass with a reason." Leah lifted her left hand and set it gently over his on the steering wheel. "It was nice to clear the air and be able to finally put Jacob behind me. I made it clear that I loved you and to give him credit where credit is due it seems like he genuinely wants us to be happy. Apparently he is going to propose to Bella because he wants to do the right thing by the child or whatever."

Edward let out a breath trying to get his emotions under control. He felt a tad bit better knowing she wasn't planning to leave him or anything even after Jake apologized to her. "So does that mean everything is better between the two of you? Are you going to start talking again and spending time together?"

His wife snorted obviously finding something in his comment amusing. "If I see him on the street or whatever I'll probably say hi, but I am not going to go out of my way to interact with him. He misses you too Edward. You know we spent all this time being angry at them we never thought that they could be hurting as well in some way. I mean he lost his best friend and you guys were like brothers. If you ever wanted to try to repair your friendship with him I want you to know that you have my support. It's totally up to you on what you decide to do and you don't have to rush to make a decision either."

"Since you were truthful with me then I should be truthful with you as well." Edward stated taking his eyes off of the road for a second to glance at her. "I went to see Bella today and before you get angry with me for not telling you at least let me explain. You know how I told you she has been texting me all the time since that night in the bar? Well I knew the only way to get her stop would be by seeing her in person and if I had told you then you would've wanted to tag along and I didn't think that would make an already tense situation any better."

This time it was Leah who clenched her jaw trying to get her emotions under control. "What did you talk about?"

"Mostly we talked about why she left." He replied calmly taking a left turn before glancing at her again to make sure she was alright. "She wanted me back claiming that she had made a mistake and she didn't care who the father was. She told me that we could raise the baby together and I had to set her straight. I don't think she was very happy when I informed that I would never again be with her and that I pitied her for not being able to be happy with what she had. I was blunt and told her that she always wanted what she shouldn't and that is the only she wanted me back. When we were engaged she only wanted Jacob because she couldn't have him and now that the roles are reversed that is the same reason she wants me. In the end she stormed off calling me a few choice names. We did not get the same closure you seemed to get with Jacob, but I am okay with that. I got to tell her how I felt and that is really all I wanted. Ah we have finally arrived."

His wife let the conversation drop since he had been honest with her about what happened. As long as the Swan bitch didn't become a problem in the future then she wouldn't have to beat the bitch down which she would if tempted. Realizing they had parked she turned her head to face forward her jaw dropped. She had thought that maybe had went ahead and rented an apartment not a house! They had parked in front of a little two story cottage with a white fence and cute little lawn complete with a flower garden. It was white and had blue trim and it was just adorable.

"Surprise!" He cried in happiness turning off the car and opening his door before rushing to her side of the car and opening her door for her. "I know I should've talked to you first, but when I saw this place I knew it had been made for us. I didn't want to wait because I was afraid someone else would buy the place out from under me. Come on you have to see the inside of the house."

Leah was amazed as she walked around the house in order to explore the different rooms. Her hubby had been right when he said this house had made for them. It was like the perfect mix of their personalities. "Are you sure we can afford this place? I thought you wanted to wait to buy a house for a couple of years?"

Edward felt his happy expression start to crumble. "Do you not like it? I thought you would love because it has a room you can make in to your office and a patio and-"

The tanned beauty was quick to cut him off with a quick kiss. "Don't give yourself a heart attack I was only wondering. I love this place and I am glad that you bought it. When can we move in?"

Instantly his happy smile returned. "We can move in next week after all the paper work is finished up and has been signed. I am so glad that you love it as much as I do. This is going to be the place we start our family I just know it and we don't have to worry the past following us here. We can make new memories here together just as it should be. I think we should get all new furniture as well. I want everything to be new and fresh because I want us to have a great start. We can go shopping tomorrow and start looking around."

"Good tomorrow we will shop." Leah told him wrapping her arms around his neck. "Hey did you want to start working on the family we will need to fill place up? There is no better time to start making memories than right now."

Her copper haired husband laughed before sweeping her up in to his arms. "I think that sounds like a wonderful idea my love."
