Baby Arizona
Chapter 11
Edward Point of View
I looked at my watch and saw that it was nearly seven in the morning, and that young Bella would soon be waking, and making her daily journey to the kitchen for breakfast. I whipped her up some scrambled eggs and bacon, had the food plated, and sat it on the dining room table as her feet hit the bottom step. I looked up and smiled at her as she rubbed her eyes with her fists and walked into my arms so I could place her in her chair.
"Good morning Bella."
"Morning, Edward." She said as she picked up her fork and dug in. I ruffled her hair, and went upstairs to set her outfit out. After her shower, and after she gets dressed her puppy would be presented to her. I ran into my room to change my attire, while Bella made her walk up the stairs.
I walked with Bella down the stairs into the living room after she called me to tie her shoes. Alice was waiting on the couch for Bella, to brush and do her hair. Bella walked up to Alice, smiled, and sat down in front of the couch in between Alice's legs. Her hands wiggled, and twitched in her lap as she tried to stay still. Alice combed the tangles out of her hair quickly, and gently. Alice decided to pull Bella's hair up into a hair ponytail and let her hair curl up as it air dried.
After Alice released her hold on Bella, she sprang up and ran toward me.
"Do I get to met my puppy now?" She asked me excitedly, her brown eyes were getting wider as she waited for my reply.
"Yes, let's go to the back yard. Carlisle is waiting for us." She held my hand tightly as we walked toward the back door. The glass door slide toward the left as I pushed it with my right. Bella and I walked out and saw the back of Carlisle's shiny blonde head of hair. She squeaked with delight as he turned around, in his hands he held a gray, and brown Yorkie.
I let her hand go and she walked quickly over to Carlisle. He held out his hands and handed over the puppy. She giggled as he craned his neck up and licked her pale pink cheek.
As the day went on Bella played with her puppy all day, which she had named Jones. By the time her bedtime rolled around she had no problem falling asleep. I had to go retrieve the pup from her bed side to tend to bathroom matters, shortly after sleep overcame her.
The next few days went by as normal, and as average as they possibly could. Bella was always busy with the trampoline, the puppy, all the board games, and video games, Esme had thought to buy. Although, Emment seemed to play the video games more then Bella ever did.
One day I finally got tired of sitting around the house and having Bella repeat the same thing everyday. I packed the trunk of my car up, woke her up a hour before the sun came up, and packed her up in the passenger side seat. We were going for a day at the park. With Jones curled up in the back seat of my car we set off for a state park an hour from the house. It didn't take long for us to reach the destination. Bella was completely awake by the time I parked the car. She smiled as I opened her door, and she took a deep breath of the cool morning air.
I zipped up her coat, then hooked Jones onto a leash. I handed her the handle and grabbed our things from the trunk. We spent awhile at the complex as she ran, hid, ducked, and tunneled through the giant play set they had built. She ran over to the swings and chambered on with much effort, then waited for me to walk up and push her. Once she got to the highest point that the chains would let her i tied the dog leash to the swing set's leg and sat on the swing next to Bella.
"Edward I wish I could fly." She hollered.
"Why?" I asked her.
"So I could see everything, in the whole world. I want to be able to travel everywhere." She said with a smile clear in her voice.
"What would you say if I told you I have seen everything." I asked her.
"You haven't Edward, there's no way you'd be able to see everything. You too young, and you never go anywhere. Your silly. Besides, there's something new out there everyday. There's always going to be something out there you've never seen."
"Well Bella, I can honestly say I never expected an answer like that from you." She was so young but she was so logical. I silently hoped that I would always be able to have a conversation like this with her.
I heard her stomach grumble and hopped off the swing. "Come on Bella, let's go eat."
She hopped off the swing and followed me along a path that I lead her to in the forest. We walked not very far, but I knew she was clearly lost. No sense of direction, cute. There was a small opening that I lead her to and moved some stray brush from her walk way. We walked into a small clearing with a thick blue stream that had large rocks resting next to it. The perfect seats.
I walked over to the rocks and sat the basket of food I had on the top, then turned and picked up Bella. After I placed her on the top, I hopped up quickly. We ate while we watched fish swim in the stream. After she was done eating I took the basket, ran to the car quickly and put it in the car and ran back to Bella.
I walked over to Bella, "Bella, do you want to fly?"
She nodded timidly. "How?"
I turned around and wrapped her wrists around my neck, "Hold on tight." I grabbed her small legs and took off running to the car, I ran the long way, and made sure that there was nothing on the sides that would hit Bella.
She screamed with joy as she yelled, "Edward I'm flying! I'm Flying!" I smiled as she enjoyed her time, and was soon stepping onto the pavement of the parking lot.
With the trunk packed back up, the dog in the backseat, and Bella fighting sleep in the passenger side seat we made our journey home.
Well this is the first chapter I've wrote in a long time. Review.
