Hey Guys!

I DO NOT OWN TWILIGHT OR ANY OF THE CHARACTERS!

There's not much to say except there are a few surprises in this chapter...(evil laugh)

Enjoy!

Bella's POV

Alice and Rosalie literally tore the house apart getting ready for the outing with the guys.

And to be honest, I did too.

We called the guys about ten minutes after we arrived back at the house to discuss plans. The guys were thinking of going to Port Angeles to watch a movie, but Alice came up with the brilliant idea of going to the park and have a picnic. Obviously Emmett agreed immediately because of the children's play area. Edward and Jasper were slightly reluctant because of all the screaming children, but we eventually convinced them.

Not many kids go to the park. God knows why, but the park is always empty when I go to write. You see, I'm a journalist and I'm working on a book. I go to the park because of the peaceful atmosphere and the freshness. It helps me write from my heart and soul. The same with my music – oh yeah, I play the guitar – I can put all of my being into the song.

Anyway.

Alice started to screech how many minutes we had left to get ready. We decided to meet the boys at the park, at the play area – Emmett's idea.

"FIVE MINUTES!" Alice yelled in a full blown panicked frenzy. I was already dressed and ready. I put on some white leggings and a dark blue cotton dress shirt that had a material belt round the middle. My dress shirt also had a hood, for some reason; I mean, how can it keep me dry? It's cotton. I put a white clip in my hair that had a tight silk bow attached to it. I put on my dark blue flats and went for the natural look – no makeup and hair down and wavy.

I had to admit that, I looked okay. Considering that I picked out my ensemble. I would usually just put on a t-shirt with jeans and flats. I was proud of myself for the change.

I decided to take my journal and song book; just in case I got inspired.

"ONE MINUTE! GET A MOVE ON ROSE!" Alice screeched. I had to laugh. Rose was probably going over the top...again.

I walked down the two flights of stairs to the entrance to our little home, and saw someone carrying a; picnic basket, blanket, umbrella, books, materials (huh?), sewing kit (what?), and a couple of soccer balls. All were piled on top of each other, floating in mid air. I bent down to look under the pile of stuff and saw two pixie-like legs with some purple Jimmy Choo flats.

"Pixie?" I asked the big pile of clutter. I heard a breathless gasp and the ball of clutter flew forwards towards me. I quickly ran out of the way, but tripped and had to grab the front door handle to steady myself. I banged my left arm on the door handle and I let out a painful yell, followed by many profanities.

"BELLA! Don't scare me like that dammit!" Alice yelled as she got up off the floor. She quickly started to collect the pile of clutter in to her little arms.

"Alice, let me help." I offered my assistance while cradling my left arm with my right hand. Alice took one look at me and shook her head.

"Get in the car!" Alice demanded, and I quickly agreed. Alice nodded her head then yelled, "Rose for God's sake, HURRY UP!"

"Calm down Pixie! Damn, what did you do to your arm Bells?" Rosalie asked while eying my left arm suspiciously.

"Alice here," I pointed at Alice accusingly with my left arm, "threw that pile of crap at me and I tried to get out of the way, but tripped and hit my arm on the door handle!" I growled, my arm had started to throb.

Rosalie shook her head then sighed, "Let's go. We don't want to be late."

We left a couple of minutes later after I grabbed an ice pack from the fridge. The ride to the park was mostly spent talking about the guys. Alice started swooning over Jasper.

"Gosh you guys, he's gorgeous. When I saw him in that party, I didn't really recognize. I went over to him and asked 'are you from Forks, I haven't seen you before' and he spun around and his eyes went wide, I thought they were gonna pop out of his sockets, then he came over to me and took my hand. I felt a spark between us. He whispered my name then I got it! I just looked into his eyes and I thought that I could see his soul or something. He smiled at me and I just went mad and hugged him really tight then started crying. He comforted me and...I don't know guys,it just felt magical." Alice sighed. Then Rosalie started,

"I was just walking around trying to find you guys and then I saw this massive, muscled man that looked really familiar. I couldn't stop staring at him, and before I knew what I was doing, I walked over to him. I tapped him on the shoulder and he looked at me curiously. Then I just whispered 'Emmett?" and then he cracks the goofiest, sexiest grin I've ever seen. He just picked me up and hugged me real close and tight, God I couldn't breath! Where his skin touched mine it felt like it was on fire." Rosalie sighed contently.

Alice and Rose snapped out of their daze and turned to me expectantly. I was driving, but I could feel there eyes on me, and I knew that I had to tell them about mine and Edward's reunion.

"I went into the kitchen to get a drink, I chugged my first cup down and I scanned the kitchen for a bottle so I could get a refill. I just saw Edward leaning over his cup, pouring some Coke into it, I just stared at him and I thought he was some kind of...Greek god," I admitted shyly then continued, "then I looked at his face and I was shocked. He looked gorgeous and familiar. I realized who he was after staring a bit more. I squealed and jumped into his arms. We started talking and then the topic of our...parents," I flinched, "and I told him the whole story of what happened. He listened and when I was finished...he was crying too." I finished it there and glanced at Rose and Alice. They were clearly shocked.

"You told him?" Alice whispered. I simply nodded and concentrated on the road.

We didn't talk after that.

About twenty minutes later, I parked the car in front of the Park. We all carried something and headed toward the play area.

It was late summer and already some of the trees were changing color. I love the trees in the Autumn. The colors are so vibrant and rich.

"Hey guys! I found them." Rose called, pointing towards a bench outside the play area. I ran to Rose and so did Alice. I saw Edward and Jasper, but I couldn't spot Emmett. Probably in the play area. And at that moment to prove my assumption correct I heard Emmett call, "ROSIE, PIXIE, BELLS! OVER HEAR!" I looked at the play area and giggled. Emmett was hanging upside down on the monkey bars, swinging his arms around. Alice, Rosalie and I walked over to the bench where Edward and Jasper were sitting and dumped all the clutter on the benches table. Edward's eyes widened as he stared at the pile of crap we brought. Jasper just shook his head and chuckled, "Alice."

"Hey guys!" Alice beamed while staring at Jasper who was staring back.

"Hey," I said softly while smiling at Edward. He flashed a brilliant crooked smile that made my breath hitch.

"Emmett! You'll get stuck in there!" Rosalie yelled at Emmett. I watched as Rose ran over to Emmett and started to tug on his shirt. Emmett was trying to crawl through one of the tunnels, that was clearly too small for him.

"Rosie..." Emmett whined while pouting like a child at Rose.

"Emmett..." Rosalie warned while glaring at Emmett. He clearly got the message because he scrambled to his feet, the ran towards the climbing frame with Rose close behind.

I was paying so much attention to Emmett and Rose that I didn't realize someone was behind me until they whispered, "You look beautiful Bella," I span round and locked eyes with Edward, who was looking spectacular. He was wearing some long khaki shorts, some white trainers and a white polo shirt. His emerald eyes were smoldering. I found it hard to breath and my legs felt weak. I quickly, reluctantly, broke our gaze by grabbing my journal and heading towards the large pond on the opposite side of the play area. Before I headed there, I turned to Edward who was eying me curiously, and said, "Thanks, you look good," I nodded and smiled warmly, then an idea popped into my head. "Follow me," I ordered and motioned with my hand to come. He nodded and began walking towards me. I turned around and headed for the edge of the pond.

When I got there I sat, cross-legged, and stared at the water. The water was clear and pure and I could see some massive golden fish swimming around. There were pink water lilies floating on top of the water. Some ducks were traveling across the water effortlessly. It was beautiful and my favorite place to think and write.

"It's beautiful," Edward's velvet smooth came from my right as he sat down beside me. '

"Yeah...it's my favorite place to come and think. I come here to write too. Did I tell you that I'm a journalist?" I asked.

"No you didn't. I'm a pianist. I perform sometimes." He replied.

"I play the guitar and I sometimes sing. And no you can't hear me sing or play." I stated.

"Why?" Edward asked, curiosity in his voice.

"It's my own private thing." I shrugged.

"Do you want to hear me play sometime?" Edward asked suddenly. I had to admit that I really did want to hear him play, but I feel a little guilty that I told him that he can't hear me.

"Sure," I looked at him and smiled warmly. He smiled back.

Suddenly the atmosphere around us changed. It became charged and electric. I found that all I wanted to do right now was kiss Edward. I looked into Edward's emerald eyes. There were so many emotions in them, I couldn't name a single one.

His eyes darkened as they looked into my soul.

He leaned his face down, closer to mine.

Our lips were inches apart.

So close...

I jumped at the sound of 'Clare de Lune' coming from Edward's pocket.

Edward's POV

SO CLOSE!

I silently cussed at the person who interrupted.

I scrambled for my phone, breaking Bella's gaze.

I looked at the caller id.

Tanya.

My irritated state evaporated.

I forgot about Tanya...

(Evil laugh) Told you there would be a surprise!

It's a cliffhanger!!!! I'm evil, right?

Bye...x
