I'm wondering about the last chapter. Did you guys not like it? My usual review number was cut by more than half! Anyways, on with the story!
My Fairytale Ending
Chapter 15
The noisy reporter moved in front of the door, making it so I couldn't get in. "So are you and Edward Cullen really engaged?"
"So that's the new rumor, huh? No, Edward and I are not engaged. We are not officially even going out yet. Okay lady? Can you please move, I need to get home now." I sighed, annoyed. I had a heavy load of groceries in my arms and I had a load of homework that needed to get done, and this reporter was not helping.
She completely ignored my request. "But that's not what I heard! And is it true that you and Edward had sex in the middle of a school parking lot?" She leaned forward, excited for the answer.
I started laughing in her face. I mean, really, Edward and I would never do that! "Oh yes, Edward have done it all!" I exclaimed.
She just gapped at me in amazement, and I took advantage of her momentary shock and moved her out of my way. I laughed softly at Edwards surprise when he finds out what I said. Oh well, it was worth it to see her shocked. I am sick of saying no, perhaps this will make them leave me alone. And maybe not… Oops.
I pulled up into my driveway and shoved past the three and four reporters waiting. Do they have a life besides digging up dirt on me? They all followed after me wanting to ask more questions, I guess not.
Running to the door, I quickly shut the door in their faces, and slumped back on the door. I started mumbling, "meeting Edward was a mistake."
"Now, Bella, don't say that!" My mother had just walked in the room.
"So you're saying you enjoy unplugging all off our phones so we can sleep? You like running for the front door every time you go home? You take pleasure from keeping all the curtains constantly closed so all we have is the light from the bulbs? Because I certainly don't." I concluded, placing my hands on my hips.
Renee frowned at me. "I didn't say that. But I do think that Edward is pretty amazing."
"That's what everyone else thinks."
She just shook her head at me disapprovingly, and went off, humming under her breath.
I put all the groceries away and started on all my homework. Hours later, I had finished. I grabbed a quick bite to eat and proceeded up stairs to my room. I lay down in my bed and thought about everything that had been going on.
I had never gotten a moment to myself this week, except for the few hours of sleep. And you don't even want to know how many times I have been called something rude, liked hometown slut, and this happens all the time. At first it really affected me, and I would come home crying. Now I had realized crying didn't get me anywhere, I needed to be stronger. And that's what happened, I became stronger, I stopped letting my emotions show, in some magazines they now called me the heart stealing robot. But that's okay, it's all for Edward. When he flies down every weekend and we spend time together, I know it's all worth it. I am real with Edward, I'm me. I not afraid for him to see how I really react to things, he loves me for who I am, not some image. And when I get his phone calls every day, my whole day will brighten.
Some call it love, when you can only think of that one person, when that person gives you tingles just from thinking about them. But I don't know if I'm ready for that, but I certainly not ready to give him up. Sure, I'm starting to fall for him, he's amazing. Anyone would fall for someone as perfect as him. Why he chose me, though, I'm still lost.
Deciding I need to get my sleep, since tomorrow is Friday, the day Edward will show up, I got in bed. Smiling at the thought of the astounding being named Edward, I fell asleep.
(Edward POV)
I was fidgeting on the plane. Thinking about Bella, as always. I was quite nervous about asking her to spend Thanksgiving with me and my family down in Rome. I was ready to move to the next level on our relationship, she meant everything to me. I wanted to spend my whole life her, she was like some angel sent just for me, and I wasn't about to let her go.
The plane slowly started to descend to Seattle. After grabbing my light luggage I got into a limo that was taking me to Forks. My heart was jumping around my chest, like it knew I was going to see Bella soon. I directed the driver to Bella's school, I wanted to surprise her.
I watched the stream of students come out of the school and staring in awe at the limo. I saw Bella walk out with Dmitri and I quickly got out of the limo and went up to Bella. Most of the students just stopped and stared, shocked into silence. Bella's face scrunched in confusion at the sudden silence.
Coming up from behind, I grabbed for waist and leaned down and whispered into her ear, my voice husky. "So we had sex in the school parking lot?" I refrained from laughing as Bella went deathly still. She turned around slowly, her face a deep, deep red.
"Edward!" She called out hoarsely.
"Yes, my love?" I gave her a small smile just to see her turn even redder, if that was even possible. "By the way, the limo is waiting."
She started sputtering out, embarrassed. Still keeping my hand on her waist, I led her to the limo, after giving Dmitri and small wave.
Bella leaned into me, hiding her face in my chest. She pulled back suddenly. "How much time do you spend at the gym, I mean really, look at your eight pack!" Realizing what she
had said exactly, she shut her mouth.
"Why?" I asked, "Do you like them? I could show you, we are in the school parking lot you know…" I trailed off suggestively.
She gave me a small punch, "Edward!" She said, her voice mangled.
"I'm sorry for embarrassing you, I couldn't help it." I opened the door for her, sliding in after her.
She looked up, her face innocent. "It's okay."
I resisted pulling her to me, and start kissing her fiercely. Remembering my mission, I decided to ask. "Would you like to spend Thanksgiving with us?" My voice was suddenly vulnerable; she could easily turn me down… But we had known each other for a while now, since late August now it was November.
Her eyes widened in surprise. "Me?"
"Yes Bella, you."
She looked up defiantly, "of course I will." And the most surprisingly she leaned up and gave me a small kiss on the lips.
My smile erupted over my whole face, she had said yes! I wrapped my arms around her, and kissed her once again, more desperately, I hadn't kissed her since the dance. As I looked into her warm brown eyes, I knew that she was meant for me. I needed her to go on, she completed me. I wouldn't ever let her escape, I, Edward Cullen, had fallen in love with Bella Swan without even knowing it, and we weren't even officially going out. How lovely.
Edward and Bella are moving on to the next level of their relationship, yay for them! I you have question, don't hesitate, just ask!
