"This is the end, my only friend, the end"
Haha. I'm just kidding. But this really is the end. 'Say that you love me' is no more. So, I'm very excited to tell you all about
THE ONE SHOT REQUEST SHOW!
What is it? I hear you ask. Well basically I'm going to start taking requests for one shots, whatever you want, with one exception. I will not write a story that features Jacob Black getting happiness in any way. I can't stand him. So, PM me or leave your requests in any of my stories! I am open to all suggestions! [Except the before mentioned] So people, get requesting! What do you want to see? What do you wish was in the books? Want to know how exactly Edward ripped those chunks from the headboard? What if Edward let one of Jacob's comments get to him a little to much and decided to show Bella how a real man acts? What do Carlisle and Esme get up to on her island?
JUST REQUEST! I look forward to them! :]
Edward's POV
Graduation Day.
I couldn't believe that after eight years of study this day had finally arrived, I was now a fully qualified doctor, like my father.
I could see Carlisle and Esme in the second row of the hundreds of parents seated in front of me, they were both glowing with pride. The newly married Alice and Jasper sat alongside them. And, at the most outer edge was Bella, my Bella.
Still my Bella after four years.
She had already graduated, Journalism was a shorter degree. She had gotten a job as the Music and Theatre reviewer for a large national magazine.
Over these past four years I have grown and matured into the man I have always aspired to be. Today marked the end of my hardcore partying days. I have a loving family and a beautiful girlfriend. Hopefully, soon to be fiancé, the weight of the ring in my pocket reminded me.
"Edward Cullen, Graduated First Class with Top Honours in Medicine, 2012"
I started as I heard my name called, lost in run throughs of what I planned to say to Bella later.
I approached the podium, I shook hands firmly with my professor, unable to keep from smiling as I took my PhD.
Life couldn't get any better. Unless of course she said yes.
Bella's POV
Edward took me for dinner to La Bella De Mer again. I wore the necklace her had given me here four ears earlier, it's sparkle had not dimmed, much like my love for him. It had only increased.
As we ate our dinner we talked, we talked about our college years. About all the hard work, how it had been worth it in the end.
As we called for the check I noticed Edwards shoulders tense, he fidgeted nervously, "are you all right?" I asked.
He merely stood wordlessly and beckoned for me to follow him. He paid cash and didn't wait for change on our way out the door of the restaurant. It was a chill October night, much like the night we had first met. I pulled Edward's jacket, which he had thoughtfully given me, tighter around my shoulders. His arm wrapped around my waist as he guided me to the seafront behind the restaurant.
We stared out at the wide ocean, the waves glittered in the moon light and cast shadows across our face. Edward shifted beside me, I turned to face him
"Bella love?"
"Yes?"
"Today marked the beginning of the rest of my life, Bella, I want you in my life. Always"
I gave a short gasp, was this leading where I hoped?
He got down to one knee and I nearly fainted right there and then. My own knees quaked nervously.
"Bella Swan, I promise to love you forever, every single day of forever, will you do me the incredible honour of being my wife?"
"Yes" I whispered as he slid a classic diamond engagement ring onto my finger.
His handsome face broke into a wide, sincere smile, "thank you"
He pulled me tight against him, the sea breeze swirled around us but I felt no cold.
All I felt was Edward against me, forever.
THE END
So guys, that's it. Finished.
I enjoyed writing this story and I hope you enjoyed reading it.
Final thoughts?
