Hello again everyone, here's the next chapter. I can't believe I'm getting two chapters up in the same day. Woo Hoo. I hope you all like it….. I don't own anything.

Chapter 7

"Today's the big day huh?" My Dad said as he walked into the kitchen. I was making up some sandwiches to take over to Edwards today.

"I guess. At first I didn't even realize it was such a big deal."

"Tony said it's a lunch date. He told me how Alice and you were talking about it."

"I didn't realize at the time but yeah, I guess it is." I just finished wrapping up the sandwiches and turned to look at my Dad. He had a big of a grin on his face like he was trying really hard not to smile.

"Oh it is a big deal if Edward Cullen asks you to come over. According to the girls down at the station he never dates. I felt pretty special after that. I actually got to see him ask you out when he doesn't' ask anyone out. Pretty special if you ask me."

"Thanks for making me nervous Dad. Gosh." I could feel my face heat up.

"What else am I suppose to do?" He asked seriously.

"Come on Tony, it's time for us to go." I yelled up the stairs.

"Coming."

"Now Tony, do you remember what we talked about this morning?" My Dad asked him as he was putting his shoes on.

"Yeah I remember. I won't forget."

"Forget what? What are you two talking about?" I asked.

"Oh nothing. Nothing at all." My Dad said as he went back into the kitchen.

"Ok. Well let's go Tony."

I was a little shocked to see Edward didn't live all that far from my Dad's house. When we pulled up to the house I notice Edward was sitting on the front step. When he looked up and saw us pull into the driveway his face light up. Just like how Tony does on Christmas morning when he sees the tree for the first time. He came over and opened my door for me.

"Thanks." I said as I got out of the car.

"I'm glad you guys found it ok. How's it going buddy?" He asked helping Tony out of the car.

"I'm good. Can I swing now?"

"Why don't we put these sandwiches in the fridge and then I'll show you where the swing is at." Edward said as he was helping me get the bag out of the car with our sandwiches and a potato salad in it.

"Ok." Tony said as he walked in front of us right into the house.

"I'm glad you are so comfortable here Tony. You could have waited for Edward to invite you in." I told him as we caught up to him in the kitchen.

"It's ok Bella. I want you both to be comfortable when ever you guys are here." Cue the blush.

After putting the food in the fridge I took a chance to look around the kitchen. It was huge. The house seemed so big for just a single guy to live in. I could tell Esme must have decorated it as well because it looked as good as Rose's and Alice's house.

"You have a very nice house." I told Edward as he showed us to the back yard.

"Thanks, my mom decorated it. It's a bit large for just me, but I just fell in love with it when I saw it. That and it really was the only thing for sell when I was looking for a house."

He had a huge back yard. There was a big patio with a BBQ on one side and a table with chairs around it plus some lawn chairs around the yard. There was a huge toy castle off to the side with two levels a slide and two swings. Tony ran over to it and started to explore the castle.

"Wow. That's some swing set."

"Yeah, it came with the house. Hanna just loves coming over to play on it. Sometimes I feel like she likes me just for the swing set." He said laughing. We walked over to the two chase lounges set up right in front of the patio on the grass. The chairs were so comfortable. I could see myself spending a ton of time out here.

"How has your week been since I last saw you?" I knew if I didn't start talking I ran the risk of falling asleep.

"It's been pretty busy. I got my new project all taken care of." He looked over me waiting for a reaction.

"That is great news!"

"How's your week been? I heard you had lunch with Emmett and Peter the other day."

"Yep, they crashed our lunch. It was very welcomed though. They saved me from Jessica." I notice he cringed when I said her name. That's good to know.

"She's um…well…she's…"

"A gossiping hag?" He looked a bit shocked at how straightforward I was but started nodding his head.

"That's a good one. Yes, she is a gossiping hag."

"It was good to meet Peter though. I feel like I've met everyone now."

"Well as least everyone who is important, but that happened before you meet Peter and after you met me."

"You don't think too highly of yourself do you?" I asked while laughing.

"Nope, not at all."

For the next half hour or so we sat there watching Tony play and we talked about a few things so we could get to know each other better. He asked about some of my past but really stayed away from Tony's Dad which I was so thankful for. He told me all about his garage and what it was like growing up with Emmett and Alice for siblings. I told him what my Mom and Arizona were like. He asked a lot about the shop I'm going to open. He sounds pretty excited about having a coffee shop in town.

After that we got out our lunches and Edward suggested we set up a blanket and have a picnic on the grass. It was really sweet how he kept thinking about what would be fun for Tony. I loved that he kept including Tony in what was going on. He even had Tony help set up the blanket. I could tell Tony loved being involved as well. After we were all done eating Tony went back to playing while Edward and I stayed on the blanket. Edward was sitting right next to me with his legs stretched out in front of him. I had my legs kind of to the side and was leaning towards Edward just a bit. I felt as if my body was being pulled towards him.

"That really was an amazing sandwich Bella. Thanks again for making them and bring them over with the potato salad."

"I was happy to. I love cooking and it's so easy to whip up a good sandwich."

"I'm not great at cooking, but I can do enough so I don't starve. My Mom was an amazing cook growing up so we kids never really had to learn. We all know just enough to get by but whatever we make it's nothing that is all that exciting. I'm pretty good with making breakfast but that's easy to cook. Dinner is really where I could use some help."

"Well, I think you will just have to make something for me and I can will be the judge of that."

"I think that's a great idea. I wouldn't mind cooking for you every night if I got the chance to have you and Tony over."

I blushed so much at that comment I'm pretty sure you could fry and egg right there on my face. The next thing I know I feel a cool sensation run down my cheek. I look over and Edward is running his finger down the side of my face.

"I have never seen someone blush so beautifully as you." He whispered to me. I didn't think it was possible but I blushed even more. We just looked into each others eyes with his hand holding my cheek. He started to lean towards me slowing. He looked down at my mouth and all of a sudden I realized he was going to kiss me. I felt like I was just a kid again. I could feel the butterflies in my stomach and I just wanted him to move a little fasted. I started to lean towards him as well. I couldn't believe I was about to be kissed by this God of a man. Just then Tony yelled over to us from the swing.

"Are you going to kiss my Mom?"

Just like that the moment was over and we looked over to Tony. I couldn't believe he just asked that. I was mortified by what Tony just asked. I have no idea what to say or do. Thankfully Edward saved me from having to come up with something.

"I was going to kiss your Mom. Would that be ok with you?" Edward said to Tony. Tony jumped off the swing and slowly walked up to us. He stopped right in front of Edward and just looked right at him.

"Are you a good guy? My Grandpa said you were a good guy this morning. He said you were nice and could never hurt someone because your Mom taught you to be a good guy. He said you could never be like my Dad because you couldn't hurt my Mom or me. Is that true?"

I felt sick at that.

"Tony come here buddy." Edward said as he crossed his legs and held out a hand for Tony. Tony walked forward grabbed his hand and Edward pulled him on to his lap.

"Your Grandpa knows me and my family very well. He would never lie to you would he?" Tony shook his head. "I am a good guy. My Mom raised me right, just like your Mom is raising you right. I would never do anything to hurt your Mom or you. I will do everything I can to make sure you are both safe. Do you understand?"

"Ok, then I guess you can kiss my Mom." Edward chucked at that.

"Are you sure you are ok with that. I don't want to do anything that might make you upset. I really like you and your Mom."

"Yeah it's ok. I like you too. Better than Jaspers brother. He was always winking at my Mom." Now I started to laugh. Edward looked over at me.

"Really? Well I might need your help than buddy. Whenever Peter is around you make sure he knows he can't be winking at your Mom anymore. That my job now."

"I can do that. You don't need to worry about that." With that Tony jumped up and ran back over to the swings. As if that whole conversation was not embarrassing enough once he got on the swings he yelled over to us. "You guys can kiss now." Edward was just laughing at that.

"I guess that's why most single parents go on dates without their kids." I said quietly.

"They've got it all wrong." Edward said before leaning over closer to me. I looked up at him and he was staring at my mouth. Before I could start to think about how awkward this was with my son obviously watching us he leaned the rest of the way in and gently kissed me. I instantly wasn't nervous anymore. It felt so right. I wrapped my arms around his neck and he pulled me closer to him. When we broke apart I heard Tony say 'ew' which had us both laughing. It was probably the best kiss I had ever had. I couldn't stop smiling and neither could Edward.

"Wow." I finally said.

"Wow is right. I could get use to doing that." Edward said as we kept looking into each others eyes.

"I'm pretty sure I could get use to you doing that."

I glanced over at Tony and he was in the castle playing. It was nice knowing he wasn't just sitting there watching everything we do.

"I know this is going to sound a little crazy as we aren't in high school or anything, but would you be my girlfriend?" Edward asked as I snuggled into his side.

"I think I would really like that." I couldn't believe it. I have a boyfriend and such a gorgeous one at that. I felt so giddy and just like a teenager.

We spent the next few hours outside. We played with Tony a bit around the castle. I was the princess who needed to be saved by the knights who were Tony and Edward. Edward suggested that every time one of them would save me I needed to kiss them as a reward. I must say I really liked that game.

"I was thinking we could order some pizza and maybe watch a movie? Do you think you guys would be up for that?" Edward asked as we started to pick up the blanket and food that was left over from lunch.

"I think that's a great idea. I wasn't really ready to leave and I know Tony is probably starting to get hungry. What movie did you have in mind?" I was hoping he would be ok with a kid's movie. I'm betting he will be after he has spent most of the day making sure Tony was involved in everything we have done.

"Well there are a few kids' movies that are now out and we could watch one of those. What about Brave?" He asked.

"We haven't seen that one yet and I bet Tony would love that."

"Great, what pizza would you guys like?"

"Hey Tony, Edward was going to order some pizza and we can watch Brave while we eat, what kind would you like?" I yelled over to Tony. He started to come running after I said pizza.

"Can I have just sausage on it?" He asked Edward.

"Sure. What about you Bella, what kind do you like?"

"Um, I really like pineapple and mushroom but if that's not something you'd like we can get something else."

"Nope, that sounds great. I'll go call it in."

Edward walked into the kitchen to make the call while Tony and I walked into the living room. He had two couches in the room. One was huge and it was right in front of the TV, the other one was next to it making an L shape. He also had a coffee table in the center of the room. There were blankets over the couches and pillows all over them. They looked so comfy.

"Is all this ok Tony? Us hanging out with Edward all day like this?" I asked as we sat down on the couches.

"Yeah. I like Edward. His house is so cool. Do you think we could live here if we ask him nicely Mom?"

"That would be moving a bit fast sweetie. Why don't we get to know each other first before something like that happens? Besides what would Grandpa do if we weren't there every day?"

"He'd probably be pretty bored huh. He could live here with us too."

"I think he likes his house and wouldn't want to leave it."

"Yeah, you are right." He seemed a bit down about that. Thankfully Edward came back in at that point.

"The pizza should be here in about 20 minute. Tony would you help me get some drinks and plates ready?"

"I'm a really good helper."

Tony jumped off the couch and followed Edward into the kitchen. A few minutes later they came out with plates, napkins, a juice box, and cans of coke.

"Are you sure it will be ok for us to eat in here? I would hate for something to be spilled on your furniture or the floor." I told Edward as they brought everything over to the coffee table.

"I'm sure. If something spills we will clean it up and if it leaves a stain it leaves a stain. I don't mind at all. Now, Tony how does the movie Brave sound?"

"Yes! I wanted to see that one."

"Alright well let's get it started."

Tony sat down on one side of me while Edward grabbed the remote for the TV and sat on the other side. The only difference was Edward was a lot closer to me than Tony was. The movie started and instantly Tony was only paying attention to the TV. Edward however wrapped his arm around me and pulled me closer to his side. Again it felt so great being snuggled up to him. He smelt so good. I don't know if it's cologne he is wearing or if it's just his smell but I was becoming addicted.

When the pizza got there Edward kissed the top of my head before going to get the door. He carried in two pizza boxes, one all sausage and the other pineapple and mushroom. Tony sat at on the floor next to the coffee table to eat while Edward and I sat on the couch. After we are done eating the pizza Tony moved back on to the couch. He laid down so he could be more comfortable while I leaned back into Edwards side. Edward had one arm wrapped around me and he was running his had up and down my arm. It was so relaxing. We just sat there watching the movie. It really did feel so good being here with him. Everything just felt right.

Once the movie was over I told Edward I'd help him clean up. We looked over at Tony and he was fast asleep.

"Awww, he must have been really tired to fall asleep during a movie." I said as I stood up.

"He did have a pretty exciting day." Edward grabbed one of the blankets and covered him up.

I put the plates on the pizza boxes and carried them into the kitchen. Edward brought in the glasses and put them in the sink.

"I really had a lot of fun today. Thanks again for inviting us over." I said to Edward as I put the pizza boxes in the fridge.

"I'm so glad you guys came. I can't even remember the last time I've had this much fun." Edward came over to where I was standing and put a hand on the counter behind me so I was trapped…but I didn't mind at all.

The next thing I know we are locked into a heated kiss. It started out soft and gentle but then Edward deepened the kiss by licking my lips. I instinctively opened my mouth and our tongues started to battle for dominance. I wrapped my arms around his neck while he ran his hands down my sides to my thighs. He grabbed my thighs, picked me up and set me on the counter. I opened my legs so he could get even closer to me. I just wanted him as close as I could get him. I felt his hands running along the hem of my shirt and all I could think about was how I wanted to feel his hands all over my bare skin. I ran my hands up in to his hair so I could run my hands through his hair. When I did this he moaned and it seemed to break us out of our trance a bit. We slowed our kissing down and ended up with our foreheads resting on each other. We were trying to catch our breath just looking at each other. I had never felt this way when I was with James before. I didn't understand it either.

"We should probably stop before we get too carried away, huh?" Edward said.

"Yeah, I don't think I could deal with Tony waking up and interrupting us again." Edward chucked and helped me off the county. "Plus I'm sure my Dad's probably wondering when we are going to be home."

"So, my parents have a big family dinner on Sundays and I was wondering you know as you're my girlfriend and all if you and Tony would like to come with me?" Edward asked as we walked back into the living room.

"Really, you don't mind that I've only been your girlfriend for a few hours, you want to take me home to Mom so soon?" I had to ask.

"Of course I want to take you home to Mom. You know everyone else in the family, it's about time you meet my parents too. Plus, even though we have only been going out officially for a few hours it seems like I have known you years and it all just feels right."

"It feels right to me too."

"See, that's how I know it's not too soon for you guys to come."

"Alright. What time should we be there?" I asked.

"Do you really think my Mom would be ok with me having you drive there on your own? How about I just pick you and Tony up at 3?"

"That works. Should I bring something?"

"Nope. Just you and Tony."

I woke Tony up and we both thanked Edward again for the great day. He walked us out to the car and we climbed in. Before shutting my door Edward leaned in and gave me a quick kiss.

"Drive safe, and I'll see you guys tomorrow."

Tony and I were both pretty quiet for the drive back to my Dad's. I could tell he was still real tired. Even after his little nap. My Dad was in front of the TV when we walked in and Tony slowly walked over and sat in his lap.

"Hey guys. How was your day today? Did you have fun at Edwards?" My Dad asked Tony.

"Yeah we did. It was so much fun. He has an amazing toy set. There's a slide, swings and a castle. And you were right he did try to kiss Mommy. I stopped him just like you told me to though. We talked about it and I told him it was ok. We had pizza for dinner and got to watch a movie. I feel asleep though so I didn't get to watch it all. I told Mommy I want to move there but we decided we needed to wait because you would be lonely….unless you wanted to move with us."

My Dad started to laugh. "Sounds like an eventful day."

"Hey buddy, why don't you go get ready for bed. I'll be up to read to you in just a minute ok." I told him as he got off my Dad's lap.

I sat down next to my Dad and waited for the questions to begin.

"Did you have fun today?" He finally asked.

"I really did. Tony had a great time to. Edward was so good with him. Always tried to include him in what we were doing."

"That's great. You know you deserve it right?"

"Yeah Dad, I know."

"So…are you guys going steady?"

"Really Dad? Steady? What year do you think it is?"

"You know what I mean. So are you two an item now?" I could tell my Dad really wanted to know.

"Well he asked if Tony and I would go to his family dinner with his parents tomorrow. What do you think that means?" My Dad had a huge smile on his face as I stood up and went to put Tony into bed.
