Chapter Twenty-One 'Forever'
Bella and Edward had gathered themselves together mentally. They took the time to decide the next step of their lives. She still wanted to go on the honeymoon as well as he did. They had said goodbye and he took her to Esme Island. "This is beautiful," Bella said looking around.
"Carisle will be joining us in a few days," Edward said. "For the change," he said. "But right now I want you all to myself," he said causing her to smile.
"Then take me," Bella said teasingly. "But wait," she said. "I'll be right back," she said. "Get comfortable on the bed," she said causing him to kiss her passionately.
"Why should I let you go?" Edward asked causing her to smile.
"Because you are going to like your present," Bella said causing him to let her go. Edward sat down on the edge of the bed taking of his shoes and socks.
Bella came out of the bathroom in a blue silk baby doll night gown with a matching silk robe. "Oh my sweet Bella," Edward said swallowing his venom.
"You like," Bella said softly. "I know your favorite color is blue," she said coming over to him.
"You don't know the things you do to me," Edward said running his hand along her arm. "The things you make me want to do to you," he said.
"Do whatever you want to me," Bella said. "I make no objections," she said kissing his neck, nibbling his earlobe and blowing in his ear.
Edward snatched her in his arms and then threw her on the bed. They had stayed in bed for most of the time until Carisle would be arriving with Esme. They got out of bed she took a shower and got dressed.
"Hello my wife," Edward said taking her hand. "How are you feeling?" He asked.
"Great," Bella said. "And you my husband?" He asked causing her to smile.
"Fantastic," Edward said turning her. "You know when I left that day in the forest I hated myself for letting you go," he said. "And then when I saw you in the stone outside my house all bruised and scared part of me was glad because I got you back," he said. "And then Paul took you," he said.
"Shh," Bella said. "Everything is fine now," she said. "I am going to be with you for all eternity," she said kissing him softly.
"Hello to the happy couple," Carisle said coming in with Esme at his side.
"Hi Carisle," Edward said with a smile. "Esme," he said.
"How are you feeling dear?" Esme asked causing her to smile.
"Like my life has meaning now," Bella said with a smile.
"Are you both ready for this?" Carisle asked causing them to look at each other.
"I got to ask you something," Bella said causing his face to look down.
"What?" Edward asked.
"When you turn me," Bella said. "I won't be me anymore," she said. "I won't have the smell, the heat, nothing that made you come after me," she said. "Will you still love me?" He asked.
"Of course I will," Edward said. "All that was just what attracted me to you like any person's looks attracts them to another person it's the person I got to know that I love," he said.
"Okay," Bella said smiling. "I am ready," she said softly.
"Let's go," Carisle said leading them into the bedroom. Bella laid down on the bed and Edward laid down on the bed next to her. "Go my son," he said. "I'll be right here," he said firmly.
"I love you Bella," Edward said.
"I love you too," Bella said touching his face and he placed his lips on her neck. Then she felt her teeth clenched into her skin and brought on the pain.
Bella woke up three days later with Edward still near her. "How do you feel?" He asked.
"My throat hurts," Bella said touching her now cold skin.
"You are hungry," Edward said lifting her up. "We should hunt," he said.
"Where are they?" Bella asked looking around.
"They left so we could get back to the honeymoon," Edward said with a smile on her face. She took his hand and they headed to the back of the house. "Ready?" He asked.
"Yes," Bella said holding his hand. "Forever," she said kissing him passionately.
