Disclaimer: I do not owe twilight.
On the way back from school, I still couldn't manage to start a conversation. The tension and pressure in the car, I could feel it. I hated this kind of uncomfortable silence the most, especially when its main concern is Edward. Maybe I should not have said anything when they were glaring. Maybe I should have kept quiet.
"Edward, can I ask you a question?"
He never answered nor looks at me.
"You're angry at me, right? I'm really sorry for what I said in the morning."
"Why do you apologize for? I already said I wasn't mad at you. Just annoyed" he sounded apologetic.
"So does that mean you forgive me?"
He started humming a weird sound in a way that he seems happy now. I guess that was a yes. I gave him a kiss on his cheek that he nearly crashes the car into a tree. He looks at me.
"Do you want to die?"
"No, you told me that we would be together forever. Alive, so how could I die yet?"
"Right" he agreed.
He started to reverse his car to the road. The he started driving again. There he goes with his humming again. I find it rather funny so I tried not to laugh.
"Bella, do you want to come over to my house? Esme would be delighted to see you."
"Hmmm…it's still quite early…okay, sure."
"Then, it's decided".
He started to speed up at that moment. I nearly had a heart attack.
When we reached the Cullen's, Edward led me into the house. As usual, Esme, Alice, Jasper, Emmett and Carlisle welcome me with smiles and joy whenever I came over. Rosalie is still cold around me, but she's getting over it. One thing that was embarrassing was that, I stepped into the house and tripped over the banister. My nose was red.
"Come and sit beside me by the piano" Edward said calmly.
He started to play the piano. It was so pleasant and melodious. Then, he started to sing Think of any rhythm you like but it sentimental music or classic:-
Angel oh angel
As you're here now
Sitting beside me
Your voice brightens my day
And so is your love
Now I wish
I could stay with you forever
As day by day
I could not stop thinking about you
Your voice and look plays in my mind
Always
I will protect you
I will love you
As your passion stays with me
Forever….
Angel oh angel
How I wish I could be with you
Never to be separated
From your side
Always
You are my angel
Angel….
You are my angel
Isabella Swan…
After he stops playing the piano, he wrapped his arms around me and whispered "Happy birthday, Bella".
Tears started to fall from my eyes. It could not stop even if I wanted it to. I was touched and all I could do was smile and said…
"I love you, Edward"
"I love you too, Bella"
After sometime, I managed to ask, "How do you know that today is my birthday?" He just stared at me and smile. He is sure mysterious alright.
Esme, Carlisle, Jasper, Alice and Emmett came towards me with something.
"Happy birthday to you, Bella! Here's your present from all of us." They said together.
"Can I open it?" I asked anxiously.
"Sure" Esme answered.
It was a necklace. It has a heart shape pendant with something engrave on it, "Edward & Bella".
"Oh, thank you so much!"
"It's just a little gratitude from us for giving Edward love."
"Time to go home Bella"
"Yes. Thank you too, Edward. Your present is wonderful."
He gave me a slight kiss on my lips, grab my hand and walk. Edward is sure an unpredictable person.
When I reached, Charlie was at the door. I thought he was angry for coming late. Instead…it can be say the happiest moment I ever had since I came to Forks.
Charlie, Jessica, Mike, Eric, Angela and my other classmate had been waiting for me.
A birthday party!!!!
Edward must have read their mind.
