Bella-age 20

Edward-age 26

Bella was laying on the ground in the living room studying for a very important microbiology exam she had the following week. She had her books spreed out in front of her. Her class notes and study cards in hand as she read over everything. She was having a hard time understanding some of the information and was wishing she had gone to the library with her class mates instead of coming home in hopes of seeing Edward and perhaps flirting with him. She had talked to Alice about her crush on Edward. Alice then proceeded to tell her how to behave around Edward and what she should or shouldn't wear around him. So Bella took the advise she was given.

She went out and bought some new clothes to wear around the house. At the moment she was wearing a blue fitted short sleeved t-shirt with a scoop neck and a pair of blue and orange plaid cotton shorts that left little to the imagination. She had hoped that the outfits would get Edward's attention but he was no where to be seen. After an hour of reading the same thing over and over again and not getting anywhere she got up and took a quick snack brake. She was finishing her sandwich when she heard Edward get home.

Edward came in to see all of Bella books on the floor. He smiled at it. He made his way in calling out to warn her that he had arrived home. She called out from the small kitchen and asked if he wanted a sandwich before she put the things away. He accepted gratefully. The moment he saw her his breath hitched but she was to busy to notice. He gathered him self quickly and hid the emotions running through him. He took a deep breath and attempted to have a normal conversation with her.

"So studying again?" he asked trying to keep his mind off of her body.

"Yeah but I'm stuck. The professor said that we would have to list all the types of pathogens, their characteristics and some examples of each. I've read my notes, my text books, and my study cards and as long as I'm reading it I know them but the moment I try to write them down with out help I get them all mixed up." she complained to him.

"Don't worry so much, I've got your back. Lets finish here and I'll help you study. I have a great way on remembering the types of pathogens." They smiled at each other then ate and cleaned the kitchen quickly. Once done they went to the living room to study. She laid on her stomach and grabbed her notes. He laid beside her and took her note cards. He started talking to her about the difference between the pathogens and what they did. Back and forth they discussed things and slowly but surely Bella finally was able to get things in order. While they talked they would still glance at each other sighing inwardly at having the one they wanted so close yet they were so far.

Once they were done for the evening Edward helped Bella pickup her things. As she put her things in her bag she thanked him then gave him a kiss on the cheek before running off to her room. Edward watched as she walked away in her short shorts than sat down the hall. His hand was on his cheek and his heart palpitated rapidly in his chest. His feeling for her had grown a lot over the last few years but he refused to act on them. She meant to much to him to lose her over what he was feeling.

After that kiss in his office almost a year ago Edward had fallen even more in love with Bella. He was ecstatic to find out that her feeling had been the same for him and wished that one of them would have made a move sooner. He felt they had wasted so much time that they could have had together as a couple. So he decided that he was going to waste no more time. He planed to purpose to Bella tonight on their weekly date night.

He had made reservations at nice restaurant that they both liked. He had gotten the engagement ring from his mother who insisted he give her his grandmothers engagement ring. He even made a rather hard call to her father and asked for his blessing, which luckily he got. He was more than ready to start his life with her. He felt his pocket one more time before he called out for her. Although he always thought she was beautiful, that night he couldn't put in to words just how beautiful she truly was to him.

They had gone to dinner and had a wonderful time but Edward seemed to lose his nerve just before he would ask. He was starting to feel discouraged by his own inaction. They finally made it home and after changing in to their pajamas they sat on the couch and watched a movie. Edward spent the whole time trying to psych him self up finally ask. Half way through the move he paused it and turned to Bella.

"Bella, love, can we talk?" He asked nervously.

"Sure Edward, what is it?" she turned to face him.

"We've been dating for a while and well we've known each other almost our whole lives. We've been good friends to each other for years. We've been like family to each other when we didn't have our own there. I never knew I could need some one so much until you came to Chicago. What I'm trying to say is that you have made my life better just by being you and being there. Bella, My Isabella tell me you want to spend the the rest of forever with me. Tell me you will be my wife." as Edward spoke Bella could feel the tears building in her eyes and when those last seven words were spoken she couldn't fight them any more. All her emotions came pouring out .

"Yes Edward, yes yes yes yes yes yes yes." he grabbed her face and and kissed her softly. And gently on her lips.

"Thank you Bella, thank you for wanting me as much as I want you."

Bella- age 27

Edward-age 33

Edward made his way home to his beautiful wife. He loved calling her his wife. They were doing wonderful together and couldn't be happier. When they had told their families that they were getting married, they were all happy and excited for the couple. His sister and Bella's best friend, Alice, went straight in to planning there wedding. It had been a small ceremony with only their closest friends and family. It had been the best night of his life.

When Edward walked in to his living room after a long day at the hospital, he found his wife pacing. She stopped and looked up at him. Her face was red and blotchy. He could tell she had been crying. When Edward saw this he ran to his wife and held her in his arms. He rubbed her back as she started to cry all over again. Edward was getting more worried by the second but could bring himself to pull away from her.

"I'm sorry Edward." Bella said while still holding her husband. She took a ragged breath trying to stop her crying.

"Bella whats wrong? What happened?" Edward's voice was calm and sweet but his insides were in total bedlam. He was scared of what was making his wife cry like this. He tried to comfort her but he needed to know what was going on. To many thing were running through his mind at that moment and he was afraid that if he voiced any of his suspicions then he might be right and at this point he wanted to be wrong about what he was thinking.

"S... sorry, I didn't mean t...to scare you. It's j...just I'm not ready. W...we aren't ready." she stammered as she tried to control her breath. Edward pulled away just enough to see his wife's face. He looked in to her eyes searching for some reassurance.

"Bella, Love, you can tell whats wrong? What ever it is you can tell me." he said trying to show his faith in her.

"Please don't be mad at me." she begged him with tears running down her face. He looked in to her eyes.

"I promise." he said hoping he could keep his promise.

"I'm pregnant." she said looking away from him. Edward let out a breath he didn't know was holding. He held her close and pulled her face up with his fingers and looked in to her eyes.

"Bella, you don't have to apologize to for that. I know we hadn't plan on this happening but this could be a good thing for us." he held her face in his hands and kissed her soundly.

"You aren't mad?" she asked softly and slightly relived, he smiled at her.

"No my love, far from it. I am so happy to be having a baby with the woman I love. It is one of the best things that's ever happened to me." he kissed her softly.

"I was so worried that you would think we weren't ready, that you might not want this. I still have to finish my residency..." he placed a finger on her mouth. She looked up into his eyes.

"Love, no one is ever ready for this even when they think they are. I'm happy, so happy I want to stand on the roof and yell it to the world. You have no idea how much I want this. We may not have planed this but I have thought of having children with you, even before we were together. I want this and I want this with and only only you." he gave her another kiss then bent down and kissing her belly. He began talking to his unborn child. This sent all of Bella's insecurities about her pregnancy out the window and she was now truly happy about having Edwards child.
