A/N: Fiiinnnaaalllly, Edward says what's in his notebook!


Bella:

25th March 2012

"Fine. In my notebook was a diary type thing. But it, uh, had some stuff. Embarrassing stuff." Edward admitted sheepishly.

"What kind of embarrassing stuff?" I ask. I mean, he just said he was going to tell me what was in it.

"You." Edward answered simply.

"What? Why am I embarrassing?" I asked, a bit annoyed.

"Because, I basically wrote a diary, every day, from the first day I met you, I wrote in the diary, about you. About any interactions we might have had, or just anything about you. And it had some drawings of you. And, yes, I am officially a stalker." Edward said, and I was slightly shocked.

"So you were telling the truth? About liking me and regretting your actions?" I blurted before I could think about what I was doing.

"Yes, I was." Edward admitted. I slowly walked over to where he was, and I reached out slowly to his hand. His head immediately snapped up to look at my face, and I looked right back at him. I took his hand in my own, and very slowly leaned in to his face. I hesitated for a second, and in the second Edward crashed his lips to mine.

The feeling felt so familiar, yet so different. Maybe it was because it was my first kiss as a vampire. Maybe it was because things between me and Edward had changed. In what way, I don't know. But right now, I don't really care. Wanna know why? Because I'm kissing Edward! I responded very happily to this kiss, and he definitely noticed it. We both kissed each other for what felt like hours, until there was a very loud throat clearing.

Edward and I abruptly stopped kissing, and jumped apart from each other. I looked to see both our families standing there, some looking amused, others looking happy. I was incredibly relieved I could no longer blush. Not that I wasn't incredibly embarrassed, but still, at least it wasn't as noticeable.

"I know you've found your mate and all, Eddie, but-" Emmett started.

"What?" Edward and I shouted at the same time.

"You don't realise it? You don't feel a pull to each other?" Carlisle asked, and both Edward and I looked at each other, puzzled.

"Up until a couple hours ago, I hated him! How can that work?" I asked.

"So you don't hate me anymore?" Edward asked happily.

"Maybe, maybe not. Maybe you should kiss me so I can find out." I told him, and so he began walking over until there was another cough. Crap. Forget everyone was watching. Since Edward was near me, I grabbed his arm and pulled him in front of me to hide me from everyone.

"Yep, you're definitely mates." Emmett announced.

"I'm not sure; I thought you couldn't hate a mate. Hey, that rhymes!" I said, giggling to myself.

"They say that vampires hold strong feelings towards their mates, and I think hate is a pretty strong feeling." Carlisle explained. Again, I looked up to Edward, and found him staring down at me.

"I…uh…" Edward stuttered, and then looked to our families, looked at me, and back at them. He then placed his hands on either side of my face, and kissed me slowly. It was incredibly romantic, and I don't think it was slow just because our families were watching. I responded, but Edward broke away way too soon for my liking. I pouted, and everyone just laughed.

"See. Mates." Alice announced.

"Just because I like kissing Edward?" I asked, and Edward grinned cockily. I looked at him and raised an eyebrow, and the grin vanished.

"Man, Bella, you've already whipped him into shape!" Rosalie said. I smiled happily at her, then innocently at Edward.

"Ok, I think we should give them some private time." Jasper commented.

"Yeah, Bella and Edward look like they're gonna jump on each other at any moment. And that would not be pretty." Emmett said, making a face of disgust.

"So, why did you actually come here?" Edward asked.

"You annoyed that we broke up your make out session?" Emmett asked cheekily, which earned his a slap on the back of his head from Rose. Thankfully, both our families left, and so I turned to Edward.

"Do you think we're mates then?" I asked Edward nervously.

"I dunno, I hope so, though." Edward said. "What do you think?"

"I don't know! I'm just so confused right now! Why couldn't you have been sweet and caring as a human?" I asked.

"I was, I just…I was only a jerk to you. Don't ask me why, because I don't know, and I'll probably never know. But…" Edward trailed off, so I went over and kissed him again.

We broke apart after a while, but I stayed looking into Edward's eyes. We walked downstairs, hand in hand, to face our families.

"Here come the lovebirds!" Emmett's voiced boomed, and I had to laugh at him. He always had so much energy. We sat down on the empty chair, and since there wasn't much room, I sat on Edward's lap. He quickly wrapped his arms around my waist, and so I snuggled into him.

"Anyway, we take it you're mates, then?" Alice said, and I realised everyone was watching Edward and I.

"Um…yeah, we think so." Edward replied, and then he kissed my cheek.

"So what does this mean then?" Kate asked, and Edward and I both had puzzled looks on our faces.

"What Kate means is that you two are both part of different covens or families. Now, as mates, you can't bear to be apart. So, you can either join one or the others coven, or start your own." Carlisle explained. I looked over my shoulder at Edward, and he seemed to be having a debate with himself over what to do.

"I'll join your family, if that's alright Carlisle." I said, but before Carlisle could reply, Edward started speaking.

"No! I won't make you leave your family!" Edward said.

"Look, Edward, I've made my decision. Eleazar, I'm sorry to be leaving, but I don't think I've ever fit in with you guys, not really. It's just; you're all so much older than me. I really hope you don't mind, but I just feel this is something I need to do." I explained. Edward looked like he was going to say something, but Eleazar quickly started speaking first.

"That is fine, Isabella. I understand you have to be with your mate, and you already fit in so well with his family." Eleazar said, smiling, and the rest of my old coven all smiled and nodded encouragingly.

"I'll call and visit often, I promise!" I said, smiling back at them. I looked at Edward, and he still looked annoyed at my decision.

"You shouldn't have to do this, Bella, just because of me." Edward said.

"I'm not doing this just for you! I need a change in my life, and you just so happen to be a part of it!" I shouted back. Edward looked like he was going to say something back, but someone must have thought something to him, because he didn't.

"I'm sorry." He said instead.
