Chapter 14: A Day in Bed

"We need to find more movies." Edward commented his fingers running through my hair.

"I think we've exhausted your entire collection." I said with a small smile. We had fallen into a very comfortable routine of watching movies every night after dinner. Edward was still not able to leave the house on his own or for long periods of time without getting tired. However, most of the pain had gone away.

"What do you want to do after I'm able to be normal? He asked as the movie credits started playing.

"You know I don't mind just watching movies with you. I told you I'm not much of a going out type." I answered before getting up to shut off the DVD player and the television.

"I know, but you still have done much more than you've had to. The only time you leave me is when you have to go to work or class." He said shutting off the lamp as I crawled into bed with him.

"Edward, we can do whatever you want. We still have a week before your appointment with the doctor." I said snuggling into his uninjured side his strong arm wrapping around me.

"I just want you to be happy." He whispered.

"I am happy, because I'm with you." I said kissing his lips softly. Edwards arms quickly wrapped around me our kiss deepening. I loved the way he tasted, and the way we always moved in complete sync. I knew that I should not be allowing him to go so far, but I had a hard time stopping him.

He was a perfect gentleman and never tried anything. But I knew that he also had a hard time controlling himself, and he usually ended up taking a cold shower. I hadn't really thought of sleeping with him, because we couldn't. The thought had crossed my mind, but I knew we couldn't. But in about a week it was a possibility.

He broke the kiss after a few minutes as we both gasped for air. He smiled sheepishly at me his hands running up and down my bare arms. I always slept in a tank top and pajama pants unless it was cold.

"Goodnight, Edward." I whispered kissing him one last time.

"Sweet dreams." He whispered kissing my nose before his beautiful green eyes closed.

As I lay in his arms I couldn't help but feel sad. In a week he would be all better, and there was going to be no reason for me to stay with him. I knew that the only reason that I had not experienced nightmares was due to his presence. I felt protected when I was with him, and even in my dreams I knew he was there. But without his presence my nightmares would start again with a vengeance, and even just thinking of them sent chills down my spine.

I decided not to think about the nightmares for now. I would worry about them later. I slowly closed my eyes willing myself to sleep. The beat of Edward's heart and his rhythmic breathing singing me to sleep.

I couldn't help but smile as I woke up. My favorite part of the day was now mornings, when I had the chance to watch Bella sleep. Nighttime was also a lot of fun, but mornings were in a class all there own. Especially weekend mornings.

Bella looked so beautiful when she slept her brown hair framing her face, and without a single worry. I felt so incredibly lucky to have her in my life, and I knew she was the one from me. I had never been one to believe in soul mates, but now I did. I knew it was still too soon to tell her, but I knew what I was feeling.

I knew she was about to wake up when she started stretching and moaning. Her moans had been quickly added to one of my favorite noises the first morning I heard it, but I would not tell her. Not yet. She didn't know she did it, and I was not going to tell her.

Her eyes opened looking straight into mine. "Good morning, beautiful." I said leaning down to kiss her.

"Good morning." She mumbled closing her eyes and stretching again the covers falling under her waist and her top riding up revealing her perfect stomach. My hands instinctively traced the newly exposed skin loving the way a smile appeared on her gorgeous face.

"What do you think you're doing, Mr. Cullen?" She whispered in my ear.

"I'm not doing anything." I teased my hand still on her stomach tracing small circles.

"I'm going to have to get you for that one, you know." She said before kissing my neck causing me to moan. She had never done that before, and I never wanted her to stop. She continued leaving a trail of kisses to my lips.

We broke apart due to the necessity of air, our breaths coming out ragged. "You're going to kill me, love." I said softly kissing her hairline.

She giggled closing her eyes against my chest. "Bella would you let me cook breakfast for you this morning?" I asked watching her closely. "I swear I feel fine."

"I just don't want you to overwork yourself." She said biting her lip.

"What if I promise to stay in bed for the rest of the day without complaining?" I inquired practically pouting. I loved cooking breakfast it was one of the things I had learned from my dad.

"Are you sure won't burn down the kitchen?" She asked with a laugh.

"I promise." I said kissing her deeply before crawling out of bed.

"But remember I don't want a peep from you after you finish." She yelled as I made it out of the bedroom.

Breakfast in bed was a Cullen male specialty. My dad had made sure to teach me how to make a full breakfast ever since I was a child. It was a Mother's Day tradition, and I now had the chance to show off my skills to another very important woman in my life. Bella was definitely just as important and even a little more than my mom.

I watched the eggs as I flipped the pancakes smiling as they landed neatly back in the pan. I took out two plates placing them on the countertop as my pancakes started to golden, and the bacon started to crisp. After grabbing to cups and the orange juice I began to order everything on the tray. I topped off each of the pancakes with whip cream and fresh strawberries before carrying the tray into our room.

Bella had fallen asleep on my side of the bed, and I didn't want to wake her. I also didn't want the food to cool. I placed the tray on the dresser before sitting on the edge of the bed. I slowly leaned down and kissed her burying my hands in her silky hair. She immediately woke up and smiled into the kiss.

"Are you ready for the most amazing breakfast you've ever had?" I asked with a crooked grin.

"I say it's pretty amazing right now." She answered crashing her lips with mine again.

I reluctantly pulled away and brought the tray to the bed. "That's a lot of food." She commented.

"I just wanted you to try it all." I said crawling into bed with her.

She stared at the plate for a few minutes before picking up a fork and tasting the scrambled eggs and bacon. "Not bad." She said with a giggle. "And here I thought you couldn't cook."

"I can't." I admitted. "Breakfast is my only specialty." I added taking a bite of food in my mouth. "My dad taught me how to cook breakfast. He said every man should know how to cook breakfast for the special lady of their life."

She bit her lip nervously as I explained. "How many times have you served a woman breakfast in bed?" She inquired.

I paused pretending to count. "Fifteen times." I answered simply taking a sip of my orange juice.

"So this is one of Edward Cullen's way of wooing women." She said a bit angrily.

"It was working fine to about a minute ago. You're only the second woman I've done this for." I said with a shrug.

"And who was the first?" She questioned the jealousy evident in her eyes.

"My mom." I affirmed with a smile. "I did it every Mother's Day until I turned eighteen and started college."

"I'm sorry, Edward." She pleaded. "You must think I'm an idiot."

"I think you're rather sexy when you're jealous." I said picking up one of the strawberries and dipping it in the whip cream before feeding her it.

"Delicious." She commented before my lips found hers.

"I agree." I said with a chuckle as we broke apart.

We stayed the rest of the day in bed enjoying each other's company. We talked and worked on our paper. Bella only getting out of bed to take a shower and make dinner. It was probably the best Sunday of my life. I spent it with the woman of my dreams.
