"What is Carlisle going to do for me?" I asked as Edward pulled me into the house. I was totally and utterly confused, yet very curious to see what Carlisle had to say.

"Carlisle, Bella has a question." Although Carlisle was in the other room, I knew he would hear.

Within the next second, Carlisle was staring at me. "Yes, Bella?"

I didn t know how to begin my sentence. How do you ask a vampire how you survived during birth of your vampire hybrid? "Why..."

I changed my mind. I didn't like that beginning for my sentence. 'How' seemed like a better choice of words. "How did I survive?"

Carlisle was too confused, uncertain of how to begin. "Bella, we're not exactly sure. We do know however, that if Renesmee had been stronger you wouldn't have."

"Why didn't you transform me, though?"

"Edward did everything in his power to keep you alive without turning you into a vampire. We're not sure how he did it. We all know why though."

He loves me. It made sense but he should have just changed me. It was what I wanted. I was an adult now; I could do what I wanted. So why did he refuse? Carlisle must have read my expression because he said, "You will have to talk to him about that."

I simply nodded as Carlisle walked out of the room. I looked at Edward and he automatically knew what I was going to say. "Love, we've talked about this."

"Why won't you do it?"

"Bella," He began softly, but I cut him off.

"You said my one condition was to marry you. I did that. Why won't you do it?"

"Bella, can we not discuss this right now?" He held my hands in his. I looked down at our intwined hands and couldn't help but wonder why he had choosen me.

"Why?" I was distracted. If he was aiming for me to forget our little discussion, it had worked.

"Esme has something to give to us." I looked at Edward with a funny expression. I was once again confused. I sighed, if he would've actually turned me into a vampire, confusion would have definitely been my power.

Edward laughed at my expression and then I pouted playfully. "Cheer up, love."

I sighed. Esme didn t have to get us anything, but it was no use arguing. Edward would win and we would eventually get it anyways. Plus, I was pretty curious as to what she did want to give us, so I gave in. "What is it?"

Esme smiled, she was now standing in the living room. She was obviously happy that I was interested in what she to give us. "You'll see."

Esme took my hand and led me out the front door. As we started walking into the forest I was more interested to where we were heading then before. "Where are we going?"

Edward chuckled. "Always so impatient."

I laughed with him. As we began walking deeper into the forest I was beginning to get really curious. What could be out here that Esme would give us? We then walked into a sudden clearing and a beautiful cottage stood before us. I was shocked. Could she really want to give us this?

Esme must have read my expression as she smiled and nodded.

I quickly hugged her. "It's so pretty, Esme!"

"I'm glad you like it." She returned the hug. Esme then took my hand and placed something in it. As she let go of my hand, I opened it. Inside of it was a key. I looked at it for a few seconds. For being a key, it was very pretty. It resembled the house, old but still beautiful in every way.

"You may go inside." She said.

I looked at Edward and he took my hand and led me to the door. I fumbled around as I tried to unlock the door. I finally got the key in the hole and I turned it. The door seemed to be unlocked now, so I pushed the door open. I gasped. The inside was even prettier than the outside, and I wasn't sure how that could be. The living room was a small stone room. The floor consisted of a quilt of smooth and flat stones. The ceiling was low, but I didn t mind. The walls were a mix of warm wood and stone mosaics. The fireplace was in the corner and held the remains of fire. Driftwood was slowing burning in it.

"It's just so....so pretty!" I didn t know what else to say.

"I'm glad you like it, Bella." I guess I didn t realize that Esme was standing behind us so when I turned around and saw her, I was a little bit surprised. Esme was smiling, she was obviously thrilled I loved the present.

"Wait, why did you give this to me?"

Edward looked away. "Don t you want to see the rest?"

"But, okay." Edward led me down a narrow stone hallway. It had small arches in the ceiling. It resembled a castle. I couldn t believe this was ours. Edward showed me an empty room with wooden floors. Renesmee's room, I guessed.

I looked in and nodded, I guessed the cottage was built after Renesmee, so they didn t have much time for her room.

We continued walked down the hallway. This is our room. Esme thought she should try to bring some of her island to us.

The bed was white, and very big. The wood floors matched that of Renesmee s room. The walls were the same color of that of a sunny day, and the back wall had glass doors that led into a small hidden garden. A round pond as smooth as a mirror, was edged with shiny stones, and surrounded by roses.

I didn't say anything. It was breathtaking, I couldn't say anything. I looked for Esme, afraid she would think I didn t like it, but I couldn t find her.

"Where did she go?"

"She wanted us to have some alone time."

"Oh."
