Wow.. I'm embarassed that it's been this long since my last update. I had to go back and read my previous chapters just to remember things. I'm not going to give excuses. Hopefully a chapter will stand as a sincere apology in your eyes. I'll try to keep up with them more.

Here's chapter six! :)

"Did I ever express to you my love of your car?" Edward asked as he slipped into the passenger seat beside me. "No, I don't believe you did." I laughed lightly. He opted to ride back to my place with me before we both head to his house for the evening. He had begged me to let him drive but I refused. I've yet to see a vampire wreck a car, but I wasn't taking my chances just yet.

"What kind of music do you listen to?" Edward asked as he went through my car's stereo. It was a newly released advanced music system. It stored all your music, kind of like Ipods did back in the day. "I love classical music. My mother used to play it around the house when I was little, and my grandmother used to play for me as well. I'm still looking foward to those lessons by the way." I laughed and he grinned at me, finally settling on an old indie song back from 2013. "I also love alternative and indie styles. I could never pick a favorite. You can't control what you fall in love with, it just happens."

"Yeah, I know what you mean." he smiled his beautiful crooked smile at me, and his eyes held a depth of emotion that I could've gotten lost in forever. Was he saying he loved me? I knew I was falling for him hard, if I hadn't already fell in love with him already. It didn't make sense to me. I'd only known him for a few days, it was unimaginable. But, yet the very idea of vampires being real was unimaginable. I decided to just let the pieces fall where they may. He's my mate. I'm sure of it.

Pulling up my drive, I parked in front of the house and got out, laughing at Edward as he gazed around at my home. "I love your house, Bella."

"Thanks, Edward." I took his hand and led him up onto the porch and inside.

"Feel free to look around, make yourself at home. I'm going upstairs to change and I shouldn't be longer than a minute." He nodded and I grinned and went to my room.

What to wear.. what to wear.. Why was I so worried about how I looked? Oh yeah, because of Edward. I grabbed a pair of light wash, slightly distressed skinny jeans and and loose black long sleeve top. My favorite black combat boots were shouting my name from the depths of my closet and I grabbed them too. After dressing, I ran to the bathroom. My hair was just the way I'd left with it this morning and I added fresh coat of mascara.

Coming down the stairs into my living room, I saw Edward looking at the many pictures I had displayed above my fireplace's mantel. "Are some of these from your human life Bella?" he asked me. A memory of sneaking into my mother's house while she wasn't home came into my mind. "Yeah, a few of them are." Actually most of them were. After I was turned, friends were few and far between, and pictures weren't needed when you have a photographic memory. But the ones from my human life held memories of a time I missed, yet didn't. I was happy as a vampire, even more so now that I had both my brother and my mate.

"After I was changed, I told Daniel of my homesickness, and he made the suggestion of getting pictures. I went to my mother's house and found the ones in my bedroom and in her collection she kept over the years and duplicated them - all while she was at work."

I walked over to him and pointed at the each one in the row. "That was taken at my mother's house, its of her and I. I was eleven at the time. That one is of Emmett and I. It was early june and we took a trip to the Grand Canyon. I was thirteen and he had just turned eighteen. He always loved things like that, exploring and visiting new places. He took a hiatus before college and we visited many places together. This one was took when I was almost eighteen. That was my best friend in high school. Her name was Christa. It was just before graduation. She was the one I was with the night I was changed. The last one is of Daniel and I. I know you would think I would resent him for taking my human life away, but I accepted what he did and embraced my new life. He's like my brother, and I will always be grateful to him for helping me acclimate to this life."

"I don't know what to say Bella." Edward looked at me, he wanted to apologize, but there was no need to.

"You don't have to say anything Edward. I'm happy and content with my life, and I wouldn't change a thing." I smiled and took his hand. "Let's go. Your family's waiting."

On the drive over, my phone began to ring and I answered it enthusiastically when I saw who it was. "Danny! I've missed you!"

His familiar, deep voice came in through the reciever, "I've missed you too Isabella!" I rolled my eyes at his calling me by my full name and mocking my voice. He never called me anything other than Isabella, no matter how much I insisted.

"I have wonderful news, Bells, and I wanted you to be the first one to know." he laughed lightly and I wondered what could be the reason for his obvious happiness. "I have good news too, Danny, but you go first."

"I found my mate!" he said happily and I laughed in excitement and relief. "Thats amazing, I'm so happy for you! Its about damn time, Dan."

"I know right? Her name is Aurora and she is the best thing that's ever happened to me. Its amazing Bells, I can't wait for you to meet her. What's your news?"

"I've found Emmett!" I exclaimed happily.

"Thats great Bella, how old is he now, fifty? Fifty-one?"

"He's twenty." I said and laughed as I heard him gasp.

"He's a vampire?" he asked timidly. "Yes, can you believe it?"

"I feel like there's more we need to discuss, am I right?" he wondered and I smiled to myself. He knew me so well. Of course I wanted to tell him about Edward, but with him in the car with me at the moment it didn't feel like a good time to dish to Danny about it.

"Yes, there is, but it can wait until later." Edward shot me a sideways glance in curiousity but I waved it away.

"Well, I'll let you go for now, but I'll call soon. I have to let my best girl know when the wedding is, of course." Even though I couldn't see him, I could tell he was smiling.

"No way! Seriously! I get to be best girl! Thank you Danny!" I exclaimed. This was amazing. I couldn't wait.

"Of course I'm serious, silly. I'll keep you updated, talk to you soon. Bye Bells."

"Bye Daniel!"

Edward looked at me curiously, "What do you need to talk to him about that you couldn't say in front of me?"

"Don't worry about it, brother-sister talk. That of course means Emmett too, but I'm pretty sure he already knows. Call it sister's intuition." I laughed, hopefully he wouldn't press this too much.

"Do you not consider me your brother?" he asked, gazing at me intensely. I found myself getting dazzled by him again. "Nope, definitley not." I said without thinking. I immediately felt embarassed, but couldn't bring myself to regret saying it. His eyes held unresolved questions, which I did not know, but they also held hope. I could only hope for myself it was a feeling of hopefulness that I was more than a brother or sister could possibly be for him. Way more.

"Hmm. Alright. I suppose thats a good thing." He smiled mischeviously at me. I found myself struggling to keep driving and not jump him right here and now.

"Hey Edward?"

"Yes?"

"Would you like to be my date for the wedding?"

"It would be my honor, Bella."

I swear I melted and was hotter than the transformation ever could have made me. And in a definite good way.

I hope it was okay. I don't know yet if I'm going to put lemons in this story or not. I've never written one, but I guess I could try if you guys want me to. I'm getting the hang of the story line again, so more chapters to come! Review! :)
