A/N: Sorry I haven't updated in ages :] Too busy. Well, I hope you enjoy the second chapter x
"Are you ready to leave?" Edward asked me. I just nodded because I was speechless. He held out his hand and I took it. My hand slipped easily into his, it was where it was supposed to be. We walked outside and then into his Volvo. Once we were inside he took my hand again and steered with the other hand. My lullaby was playing on the stereo. It was a CD Jasper made for us, it was named 'Bella&Edward.. Eternal Love'. It was absolutely beautiful, the songs included My lullaby, Clair de lune and more of Edward's compositions and other love songs. "Will you please tell me where we're going?" I asked. A smile crept across his face. "Sorry, love. You're going to have to wait."
"You know I hate waiting."
"I know, I'm sorry. Can't you wait for a little while?" he asked looking into my eyes. How can anybody resist that? His liquid golden eyes always made me melt. "Fine." He smiled and squeezed my hand. I wondered what Renesmee and Jake were doing. Hopefully they were having a good time. "What are you thinking about?" Edward asked me. He always asked me this, always. It pained him not to know what I was thinking about. Out of all the people in the world, he couldn't read his wife's mind. He couldn't read the mind of the girl he loved, and this extremely annoyed him. "I was just thinking about Nessie and Jake. And how you always ask me what I'm thinking about," I told him. He chuckled softly when I said this and traced circles on my hand. The song changed to 'Love Story' by Taylor Swift. Alice insisted the song be put onto the CD, because apparently we were like Romeo and Juliet. "We're almost there, love. You won't have to wait any longer," he said moving both of our hands to stroke my cheek. I closed my eyes but I still knew he was smiling at me. I pushed my shield out so that he could read my mind. I was telling him that I love him. "I love you too," he whispered. "We're here." I opened my eyes. I was in front of La Belle Italia. This was the restaurant where we had our first date. Even though we couldn't eat, we could just sit and have a drink. Drinks weren't too disgusting, especially water because it had no taste. "Edward.." I began.
"Do you not want to be here? We can leave if that's what you'd like."
"No! No, it's .. perfect. Thank you," I sobbed just a little bit but Edward freaked out.
"Bella!? What's wrong?"
"Nothing, don't worry. I'm just happy," I said holding his hand to my cold, dead heart. But with my love for the man sitting beside me, my heart didn't seem so cold and dead. It seemed alive and beating. Skipping beats every time he touched me. We walked into the restaurant and we were seated by the same waitress as from our first visit! It had been, what? Two years? She remembered us, well Edward mostly. "What would you like?" she said looking at Edward. "Water, please," he said keeping his eyes on me. She looked jealous when she looked at me. "What would you like?" she asked me with a hint of acid in her tone. "The same," I said. I didn't care about her attitude, just as long as I was with Edward. Everything would be ok. "Anything else?" she said in a girly voice, trying to get Edward's attention. He kept his eyes locked on mine and shook his head. The girl frowned as she walked away from her pathetic attempt at flirting with my husband. "I don't think she likes me," I said smiling. It was funny the way she would glare at me with envy and talk to me in an acidic tone, she didn't even try to hide the acid in it. "It doesn't matter. I love you and that's all that really matters to me. You," he said taking one of my hands in both of his. If I could cry of happiness, I would. The sour waitress came back with our drinks. She placed them down and leaned against the table. She scribbled something on the piece of paper and handed it to Edward. "Call me?" she asked.
"I don't think so," Edward answered.
"Why not?" she asked moving closer.
"Because, he's married," I said sticking my ring finger in her face as she turned around. She blushed a deep red and stepped away from the table. I fought back the urge to hiss at her. "I apologise, I had no idea."
"It's obvious he's with somebody. We were holding hands for petes sake!" I almost yelled. Edward squeezed my hand, I was going a bit too far. I glared at her and she left. I turned back to face Edward. My day was going great until that woman came and messed it all up. "I'm sorry she upset you," Edward said.
"It's not your fault." I looked him in the eyes and held his hands with both of mine. I removed one hand so that I could get a sip of water and so did he.
"Don't be jealous. I love you," Edward told me. It was true. He did love me and nobody could ever change that. I put my hand back on his and beamed at him. "I know. I love you too."
