Chapter 12 Beautiful Voices

BPOV

I'm woken up by the sound and feel of Edward breathing so hard that I think he's having a panic attack. I sit up and he is really freaking out about something, as his hands come up to his mouth, eyes wide as ever, like he just seen a ghost.

"Baby, what's the matter?" I try to calm him down by placing a hand on his cheek but that seems to make him panic even more, and he squints his eyes as tightly as possible, "Talk to me, Edward! You're scaring the shit out of me!"

"I'm so sorry! I...I...we...didn't use protection. I can't believe I was so stupid! I know better!" I don't mean to, but when he says this I can't help but giggle, "This is no time to laugh, Bella! You could end up pregn..." I shut him up by kissing him.

"Edward, if I wasn't prepared I would have stopped you to ask if you had a condom. I've been on the pill for years now. I take it mainly because I had very irregular...uh...girl issues if you catch my drift." He's so dumbfounded that he just nods his head in understanding.

"So...you're on the pill? Really?" I giggle. God he is so cute.

"Yes, Edward. I'm on the pill and haven't missed a day ever! So you shouldn't have any worries. And it's not like we both have to worry about STD's or anything considering we are each other's 'first.' So, yes. I think we'll be OK." He takes me in his arms and just hugs me as tight as possible as he lets out a sigh of relief.

"Oh, thank God!"

"We should get back before your mom begins to worry."

We start packing everything up and once we get everything set, I stand there just taking in the view, reveling in everything that just took place in this meadow, our meadow. There was no denying it, I loved Edward more than anything in this world. Being with him and being able to share in that special moment with him was the most mind blowing experience ever. Yes, not quite the 'mind blowing experience' as some people have, but still, it was amazing. That experience will come later and I'm looking forward to that day for sure. I feel arms wrap around me and it brings me back to reality.

"Where did you just go, baby?" he says as he kisses my neck. I wrap my arm around his neck with my back still to him.

"I was just thinking about how amazing you are," I turn around to face him, "and how amazing you were," I say with a smile and a wink. I lean into him, give him a quick kiss then take off running.

"Hey! Wait up!" I hear Edward say through laughs, running after me. He finally catches up with me and wraps his arms around me, "Ha! I gotcha!" Just then I trip and fall and we come crashing to the ground with a thud. We lay there laughing so hard that we can't stand up right away.

"Are you OK?" I ask him still laughing.

"Yeah, I'm good. How 'bout you?"

"I'll be fine," I say as I see him stand up and offer me a hand to help me up. I take it and he pulls me in for a wonderful hug.

"I love you," Edward says to me as he kisses the top of my head.

"And I love you too."

We arrive back to his place and find that everybody is gathered around the TV.

"Hey there chick pea!" Emmett says to me as he gets off the couch and gives me a hug. Not really sure where 'chick pea' came from for a nickname, but it makes him happy, so I let it slide. Besides, he's been calling me that for a while now.

"Hey, we're back. What are you guys watching?" I ask.

"We're doing the channel surfing thing at the moment. Come and join us."

So, Edward and I have a seat on the couch next to Alice and Jasper. After a bit of searching, we finally decide that a Bridezillas Marathon was the winner. The boys kind of groan about it, but I think they secretly got into it as much as we did. Every once and a while, I sneak a look at Edward. We catch each other's eye a few times and I would just smile, with a slight blush on my cheeks. I notice that he seems to be slightly red in the ears as well. After the first couple episodes, I feel Edward lean down and kiss me behind the ear.

"I have a surprise for you. Will you come down to the basement with me?"

"You are just full of surprises today aren't you?" he laughs shyly.

"Yeah, I guess I am." He kisses me behind the ear again and whispers, "I'm not the only one with surprises today though." I can't help the blush that I feel in my cheeks.

"Yes. I'll come with you." He takes my hand and leads me down the stairs to the basement. I've never been down here before so I have no idea what to expect. We get to the bottom and I notice that it's a finished basement. The room in front of us is what Edward refers to as the 'man cave.' It has a pool table, Foosball table, and a fifty-two inch flat screen TV mounted to the wall with every game console you could think of. I also happen to notice that there is a door off to one side of the room. This is the door that Edward is leading me too. When he opens the door, I can't help but gasp. On the other side was a beautiful, black, baby grand piano. I walk into the room and just marvel at its beauty. I feel arms wrap around me and it brings me back from my thoughts.

"It's beautiful, Edward." He leads me to the bench and he sits down next to me. He hasn't said a word yet. I'm not sure if he's nervous about me being in here, or he just doesn't know what to say yet. He lifts up the cover, exposing the beautiful black and white keys and takes a deep breath and lets it out.

"You inspired this one," was all he said before he started playing. I didn't recognize the tune that he started playing, but it wasn't long after he started playing that I heard the most beautiful voice start to sing.

Her eyes, her eyes
make the stars look like they're not shining
Her hair, her hair
falls perfectly without her trying
She's so beautiful
And I tell her every day

I know, I know
When I compliment her she won't believe me
And it's so, it's so
Sad to think that she don't see what I see
But every time she asks me "Do I look okay?"
I say

When I see your face
There's not a thing that I would change
'Cause you're amazing
Just the way you are
And when you smile
The whole world stops and stares for a while
'Cause girl you're amazing
Just the way you are

I can't help the tears that spill down my face as he sings. Edward chose that moment to look over at me. He sees the tears and gives me a shy smile, bites his lip, almost as if to keep his emotions in check. It's this moment that I realize not only am I in love with him, but I want to spend the rest of my life with him. He continues with a shaky voice.

Her lips, her lips
I could kiss them all day if she let me
Her laugh, her laugh
she hates but I think it's so sexy
She's so beautiful
And I tell her everyday

Oh you know, you know, you know
I'd never ask you to change
If perfects what you're searching for
Then just stay the same
So don't even bother asking if you look okay
'Cause you know I'll say

When I see your face
There's not a thing that I would change
'Cause you're amazing
Just the way you are
And when you smile
The whole world stops and stares for a while
'Cause girl you're amazing
Just the way you are

By the time that Edward is done with the song, I'm a sobbing mess. He takes my face in his hands and smiles, but looks worried at the same time.

"Hey, why the tears? I wasn't that bad, was I?" I can't help but laugh.

"No. Of course not. You were amazing. I'm just so overwhelmed with how much I love you. Not to mention you just sang me the most beautiful song I've ever heard and I had no idea you could even play. Where did you hear that song?"

"You promise not to laugh?" he says as he squirms where he sits.

"I promise."

"I heard it here," he says as he places my hand over his heart. I see him turn red. Oh no way!

"Are you telling me that you wrote that song?"

"Yes. I've been working on it for a while actually." Edward looks me in the eye and takes my hand in his again. "Every word in that song is so true about you. You're amazing...just the way you are." He leans his head on mine so our foreheads are touching, then leans in for a kiss.

It's this moment that I suddenly realize that Edward would take me no matter what I look like. I could be scarred from head to toe and he wouldn't care. I always knew he never minded the scar on my face and the way he kissed my other scars that he discovered today in our intimate moment, proved it even more. But I always felt that maybe someday he would ask if I wanted to get them removed. To be honest, since we started dating, I stopped worrying about what I look like in other people's eyes. Edward tells me every day that I'm beautiful and when he says it, he makes me feel beautiful. I have no choice but to believe him. I've come to accept that these scars on my body are a part of me now. It took awhile, but he helped me get over my insecurities, and that is just another thing I love about him, more than anything.

Edward plays a couple classical pieces that I've heard before and we chat some more while he plays. I can't get over the fact that I am am now just finding out that he can, not only play the piano, but plays it amazingly well. And sings, for that matter! Not to mention that said piano makes him even sexier than before. While he is still playing, I stand up and swing my leg over his legs so I'm straddling him. I hear him mess up a few notes and I can't help but smile, which gets a smile out of him.

"And what do you suppose my sexy girlfriend has going on in that pretty little head of hers right now?" I chuckle.

"Hmm. Why don't I show you instead." I kneel on the bench so I'm at eye level with him and kiss him. Edward stops playing after that and wraps his arms around me. Our kiss starts to get really heated to the point that Edward has me up against the piano and about to take my shirt off when I hear someone come into the room.

"Hey Edward you in...WOAH!"

"Jesus, Emmett! Don't you know how to knock?" Edward said as he helps me straighten out my shirt.

"Um...yeah I do! And I did, but you were too busy doing other things that you didn't hear me."

"I think I'm going to go," I say as I stand up and give Edward a quick kiss.

"I'll call you later. I love you," Edward tells me. I can see the I'm so sorry look in his eyes.

"Sounds good. I love you too."

When I get home, I find out that Charlie is still working and wouldn't be home until late, from the note he left me. I decide to make myself something simple for dinner and pop in a DVD. Once I make myself a peanut butter and jelly sandwich, I search my DVD's for something to watch. I go with Pretty Woman because it has been ages since I've seen this movie.

A little ways into the movie, I bring my dishes into the kitchen and wash them up. This whole time I just let the movie play because it's not like I haven't seen it before. Plus, I can still hear it as I'm doing the dishes. After I finish up, I go back into the living room to finish watching the movie. When I have a seat on the couch, I realize that it's at the infamous piano scene and I gasp.

That could have been me earlier today if Emmett didn't barge in on us.

Watching the scene play out, I start to think just how hot the idea would be to have sex on a piano.

In that moment, that's when I realize...

I will have sex with Edward Cullen on his baby grand piano.
