I'm amazed. Two updates in two days. It's a miracle. As i stated I want to get this story finished but Christmas and I think there is only three chatpers left: their date, their return to school and i little bonsu at the end. Enjoy the chapter and reviews are always welcome. Oh by the way, if someone could tell me what PDLD stands for and what flmaers are, that would be great. I was reading a Gilmore Girls fic and it had PDLD in the summary. Cheers.

Bella waited until she couldn't hear Edward's car anymore, before squealing loudly and throwing herself on her bed. The cheesy grin was permanently plastered on her face and she knew that if a meteor landed on her right at that moment, she would die happy. She rolled over and stared at the ceiling for several seconds before jumping off the bed and snatching the phone off her desk. She dialled her mother's mobile and waited with baited breath for Renee to pick up.

"Hello," Renee said with a giggle.

"He kissed me," Bella squealed down the phone and once again collapsed on her bed.

"Who is this?" Renee asked. Bella could just imagine Renee pulling the phone away from her ear and staring at it strangely.

"It's Bella," she replied with a laugh. "Mum, Edward kissed me."

On the other end Renee was grinning like an idiot. She knew she had been right about Bella's feelings towards Edward, but she realized that Bella would have to figure things out by herself.

"How was it?" Renee enquired. Bella pulled the pillow against her and hugged it tightly as she remembered the kiss.

"Breathtaking," Bella answered simply and Renee could hear the dreaminess in her daughter's voice.

"So what happens now?" Renee asked. Bella's smiled faulted and she sighed.

"I don't know. I didn't know he felt that way about me," Bella confessed. "It was probably just a spur of the moment thing."

"Honey, you are anything by a spur of the moment girl for Edward Cullen," Renee said trying to reassure her daughter.

"But look at me mum. I'm plain Jane. Edward is gorgeous," Bella rebutted.

"Isabella, you are gorgeous too. You're genes are from me, after all," Renee replied and Bella smiled.

"Thanks mum."

"Anytime. So when are you seeing him again?"

"Tomorrow. We're going to the beach and then Dr Cullen is having a barbeque at their house."

"Well have fun and I'll talk to you in a few days. I love you Bella."

"I love you too mum. Say hi to Phil for me."

"Will do. Bye Bella."

"Bye mum."

Bella hung up and laid back down, the pillow clutched at her chest. Today had been perfect, yet she let the negative thoughts cloud her mind and she couldn't push them away. A tapping at the window distracted her and she was pleasantly surprised to see Edward sitting on the ledge. He stepped into the room with one fluid movement and stood in front of her, his hand grazing her cheek.

"I couldn't stop thinking about you and all I wanted to do was kiss you again," he said softly and touched his lips to hers.

Electricity flowed through the pair and it was only seconds before Edward deepened it. Bella slid her hands up his arms and secured them around his neck, playing with the soft bronze curls at the nape of his neck. Edward's left hand was on the back of Bella's neck as his right hand came to rest on the small of her back, pulling her against him as their kiss intensified. Breathing soon became an issue and they broke apart reluctantly. Edward's forehead rested against Bella and their breathing was deep and laboured.

"Wow," Edward mumbled, closing his eyes as he remembered the kiss.

"I know what you mean," Bella replied back, her face now buried in the crook of his neck.

"I have something to confess," Edward stated and Bella lifted her head so she could see his emerald green eyes.

"That doesn't sound good," Bella added.

"You might hate me for it," Edward rebutted. Bella shook her head.

"No chance of that ever happening," she promised. They remained quiet for several seconds as Edward silently worked out what to say.

"I think I'm in love with you," he finally whispered and looked anywhere but at the brunette still in his arms. Bella smiled and cupped his cheek with her hand. He finally looked at her as her chocolate brown orbs revealed her soul.

"I love you too," she whispered back and courageously took control. She kissed him with as much passion as the last one and knew at that moment that things were finally looking up. A weight had been lifted from their shoulders as their confessions floated away with the breeze.

Bella rolled over and threw the blanket away from her face. Blinking several times a smiled appeared on her face as sunlight filled her room.

"Someone looks happy," Alice announced as she walked into the room, Rosalie in tow.

"The sun is shining. What's not to be happy about that?" Bella asked.

"I don't think it has to do with the sun. You have been walking around with a stupid grin on your face since we went to the beach last week," Rosalie said.

"I'm going to guess it comes from a certain 6 foot 2 inch guy with bronze coloured hair and emerald green eyes. Otherwise known as Edward," Alice teased and Bella went bright red. She remembered exactly a week ago at the Cullen's barbeque, Edward had asked her out on their first official date. She had accepted without hesitation but had coped a night full of teasing from Emmett. Rosalie had punished him by making him sleep on the sofa. Alice and Rosalie laughed and pulled Bella out of bed.

"Why are you here?" Bella suddenly asked as they pushed her down the hallway and into the bathroom.

"Because you have your first official date with Edward tonight and you need a gorgeous new outfit that will make him want to throw you on the bed and have his wicked way with you," Rosalie announced. Bella's blush grew redder and she slammed the bathroom door in their faces as their laughter rang out in the small house. Six hours later Alice, Rosalie and Bella returned with Bella's date dress, shoes and accessories. They shoved Bella in the shower once again and when she re-emerged, Alice was armed with the blow dry while Rosalie was armed with a brush and curling iron. When Edward arrived three hours later, Alice and Rosalie were putting the finishing touches on a gorgeous Bella.

"She'll be down in a sec," Alice promised and Rosalie ushered her other door.

Edward didn't have to wait long. Standing at the top of the stairs, Bella slowly made her way down, one step at a time. They had insisted on stuffing her into high heels promising her that if she tripped Edward would be there to catch her. Bella said a silent thank you as she made it down the stairs without tripping. She took in Edward. He was dressed in black dress paints and a white dress shirt. He looked amazing and Bella felt the familiar blush creep into her cheeks as she openly ogled him.

"You're beautiful," he said finally. Alice and Rosalie had bought her a strapless white dress with purple designs adorning it. It sat on her knee and the black shoes complemented the bright colours.

"Ready," Edward asked and offered his arm to her. She smiled and took it. Their date was going to be one to remember.
