Hey guys! I'm looking for a beta, because I really don't ever have much time to edit my chapters, so if you or anyone you know is interested let me know. If I get a beta chapter will probably get up much sooner.
So I started a new story called Shattered. It is a little more intense then this story but still rated "T"
Summery: Bella Swan has not had much luck with guys, first her fiance leaves her in the middle of the night pregnant, then years latter she finds her boyfriend cheating on her. After she brakes up with her boyfriend her daughter, Charlotte, gets kidnapped. Edward Cullen is put on duty with Bella's father to find Charlotte. Why does he look so much like someone she knew, yet so different?
This chapter is dedicated to cbmorefie. This person has stuck with me from the beginning and reviews on every chapter. IT is people like this that keep me coming back to write. So congratulations cbmorefie.
"Edward," I whispered.
He didn't respond but continued to kiss me.
"Edward," I Whispered again.
"Bella, I love you," he said against my neck.
"I love you too, " I told him truthfully bring his lips to mine.
I woke up to little cries coming from the floor. "Raven," I mummer.
Me and Edward made a deal, after Ryder and Raven were born, he would take Ryder at night and I would take Raven. Elizabeth took care of them during the day so gave her a break at night.
I picked her up and held her to my chest. I has been one year. 365 day since Sally came and... left. 302 days since Edward and I got together.
I smiled to myself at that thought. I remember the day clearly.
We sit by the water waiting for the fish to bite. I then remember a time that was rather close to this one, just it ended it a kiss. I shook my head trying to banish the thought.
"Your blushing," he noted. I just smile and met his eyes silently daring him to figure it out with just staring into mine.
"You get harder to read by the day," he looked into my eyes confused. "You are also getting more beautiful."
Before I could register what was happening Edward grabbed my chin and looked into my eyes as I stared into his beautiful, stunning green ones. I then imagined a 7 year old boy, that was a splitting image of Edward, next to a 3 year old, who was obviously our daughter. Our kids.
I mentally scolded myself for even thinking that, but I could not believe myself 100%.
Edward painfully, slowly pulled my face to his and kissed me in a way that was full of wanting, yet, full of love and passion. This was our real 'first kiss.' Edward may have kissed me once when we were younger but it was different now. Back then we were just two children who liked each other, now it is more then just a crush. I even think I might have fallen in love with him from being on this island for as long as I have.
He pulled away all to soon and smiled at me. And I smiled right back.
"So are we a couple now?" I asked still staring into his eyes.
"Do you want to be?"
I laughed and nodded. "Well then we are I guess." he said pecking me on the check. I put my hand in his and didn't take it out for the rest of the day until we parted with a kiss on the check and went off to bed.
I slowly brushed Raven's now tear-stained wet hair out of her eyes. He hair was a light brown that was rather thin and was now down to her little ears. He hair made her sky blue eyes stand out more then they did before.
Raven started crying harder waking up her brother in the room next door, Edward's. I brought Raven to Edward's room to see him sitting on his bed trying to console Ryder. When Raven saw Ryder she stopped crying instantly, it was as if her brothers missing presence was he problem.
I set Raven on the floor, as Edward did the same to Ryder. Raven crawled right over to Ryder, he sat there dumbfound. He was a very slow learner.
I laughed at his expression as any big sister should. That is how I viewed the twins, and they viewed my as their sister. I silenced my laughter all together as I thought of Hannah and Vanessa. They should be the big sisters to the twins, not me. They have already missed out of a whole year in their lives, and will probably miss out on the rest. I just wish they would get my note, then maybe just maybe.
"Bella?" Edward questioned me. I didn't dare look at him if I did my tears would fall down my face.
"Bella, he said again walking to me. He grabbed my chin and pulled my face up forcing my eyes to meet his. I wanted to pull away but his beautiful green eyes took me over, yet again. "What is the matter?"
I shook my head refusing to tell him. He started to kiss down to trying to force the answer out of me.
"Edward," I sighed. "Edward. Not now." I tried to push him away again looking down Raven and Ryder to see them staring up at us in awe.
Edward sighed but pulled away only to look down at the twins. "They remind me so much of you when you first came here." he said bending down to push Raven's beautiful waves out of her eyes. "So sweet, little, innocent. Yet, just as dazzling." He finished as he stood up, now towering above my annoying 5 foot 4 inches.
I don't remember much of my mother. Her name was Alexandera Ann McCarty, and she had long brown hair and blue eyes. I don't believe she was much taller then me though. Maybe 5 foot 6 inches. I think my living on this island more then likely stunted my growth. But I think i got my appearance from her. Though I can't be sure.
Elizabeth walked into the room looking for the twins. Was it that time already? It didn't feel like it because I was still half asleep.
Well Edward and I watched the twins during the night and Elizabeth took care of them during the day. How does Eddie fit into all of this? He doesn't do anything, he may have love the twins a year ago but then he remembered the lack of sleep he would get a resented them almost as much as he did me.
Elizabeth smiled at me and Edward standing so close to each other and noticed Edward's arm spun around my waist. "Sorry, I will just take the twins," she said blushing.
"It's okay, Mom. Bella and I were just taking care of Ryder and Raven."
She rolled her eyes but grabbed the twins, one in each arm, and walked out of Edward's tiny room.
"Where were we?" he question as soon as we could hear Elizabeth's footsteps towards the kitchen. I swear I heard her laugh as she was heating up the twins food. I laughed as Edward pushed me onto his bed. His vivid green eyes bore into my brown ones.
He then bent his head down to kiss me. It was slow yet full of passion. It made me love him even more, if that was possible. He loved me but was not crazy about certain things like some guys were. He was my gentleman.
"Edward," I pushed his face away from mine, "We have to go fishing."
"But kissing you is much more interesting the stupid fish that we have everyday."
I nodded but tried to get up from under his grip.
"Where do you think you are going?" He asked pushing me down farther.
"Fishing," I retorted as if it was the most obvious thing in the world.
"Do you not want to kiss me?" He pouted. His face looked so much like Emmett when he did that. Emmett. I wonder what he was up to right now. He would have graduated from high school already, maybe collage, but he never seemed like that type of person. Then again I didn't seem like a person that would be living off the land on a deserted island. Maybe he was already settled down with a wife and kids. I just hope he is happy.
"Okay how about we can kiss down by the pond while we wait for something to bite?"
He thought about that for a second then replied with a 'deal.'
He stood up and grabbed my hand as we made our way to the lake.
As soon as we set up our fishing poles Edward started to kiss me just as promised. Edward was not normally this crazy about kissing me, what brought it on now?
"You are so beautiful," he said along my neck. "Funny," my jaw. "Amazing," my ear. "Will you marry me?" He whispered in my ear putting me into shock. He pulled out a ring I knew all to well. Elizabeth's ring.
He saw the shocked look on my face and the smile came off his face instantly. "I mean...you...like... don't have to ... if you don't want to. I mean... there is no one on this island that i need to... prove to them your mine... I just thought..." he stuttered.
"Yes," I whispered cutting him off.
His whipped his face around to meet my eyes. His beautiful green eyes looked at me as if they were boring into my sole. The green eyes that I have been so obsessed with for eight year. One of the factors of why I feel in love with him. Something I love about him and never want to change.
He didn't look convinced that I really did want to marry him. I kissed him full and hard on the lips. My arms found they way around his neck and I got up on my knees. It only took him seconds to get over shock and kiss me back. His right hand tangled itself in my hair and his left went to the small of my back pulling me so I was sitting on his lap. He was the first to pull away gasping for air. I then realized that I also need to breath and took a large gasp for sweet air.
Edward laughed and pulled me closer to him yet again. "Remember when we were little," he whispered nibbling on my ear. "When I kissed you here?" I nodded and laughed. Over the years we have learned to laugh about it and not act like it was terrible.
"Yeah, and you thought it was such a big deal?"
He nodded blushing. "Yeah, well. What I meant is even though I hated it at first I'm glad it happened."
"Why?" I asked.
"Because we may not be where we are today if that never happened." He said against my neck.
"Well, in that scene I'm glad it happened too," I whispered. "Because now that I think about it, it made me realize I loved you as something more then a brother." I finished pulling my fiancee's lip's to mine once more.
