Edward's POV
The next morning I woke up, feeling the best I had ever felt in my life. The warm light that cascaded from outside to my window brought a brilliant light to the room. When I actually began to focus on the sight before me, I noticed Bella wasn't in bed. I shot up, and looked around the room, and she wasn't in here either, that's when I heard conversation downstairs. Bella must have gotten up early to make coffee, I should have done that.
Slowly getting up out of bed, I grabbed a blue t-shirt and brown sweater before heading downstairs, the smell of bacon, eggs, potatoes, and waffles enveloped me, and I felt like a little kid again, and the events of last night had become a dream, but I was living that dream now. When I made my way into the dining room I saw everyone sitting around the table, eating, and when Bella's brother Quil saw me, he gestured me over, "Come on over soon to be brother." I smirked, and nodded my head, making my way towards the seat next to Bella before giving her a quick kiss on the cheek before sitting down.
"Good Morning Bella, how did you sleep?"
"I slept great; considering the events of yesterday, how about you Edward?"
"I slept amazingly. Especially after yesterday.. thank you for breakfast by the way." She smiled and nodded before looking forward at everyone. Esme slid closer towards Bella, and looked at her, getting ready to chat.
"So Bella, have you thought about what time of year you wanna get married at all? Like what season?" She smiled and nodded.
"I have thought about it, but I haven't mentioned it yet... but then again we just got engaged yesterday, but was I thinking in autumn when the leaves have changed color, I think that would give the wedding more character." As I listened it had sounded so beautiful, so full of life.
"I agree with you Bella, it does sound like a gorgeous time of year to get married." I said, picturing our wedding day in my head, Bella in a beautiful white gown, and everyone we love and care about, sitting before us, as we took our next step into happiness. It wasn't too long before our guests left, and it was only Bella and I, thankfully, they had helped us clean, so there was nothing with worry about when it came to cleaning.
I decided to jump into the shower, and once the warm water hit my back, my body relaxed, so instead of a shower, I decided to take a nice warm bath, to just lay back and relax. The warm water, felt so relaxing, to sit here, and only think about things that were absolutely important to me. While in the tub, I closed my eyes, and began to think. I was extremely happy, over the top, probably so happy that laughing gas is a joke. But I was also nervous. I wasn't sure why... but I couldn't help but to be nervous. As soon as I finished my nice bath I got out, dried myself off, and dressed into Bella's favorite shirt on me, my black, tight fitting long sleeve shirt.
When I got out, I began looking around for Bella, but I couldn't find her. I walked into the laundry room, to put my dirty clothes and towel in the hamper, and she wasn't there. I searched the living room, kitchen, half bath, and the bedroom, but I couldn't find her anywhere. I then looked in the basement to see if she was getting anything from there, and nada. As I made my way back up the stairs, I saw a figure out on the back deck from the kitchen window, and there I found Bella. As I made my way to the sliding door I found Bella in her black fall leather jacket, looking and touching the engagement ring on her ring finger.
I slipped on my jacket with ease, and made my way onto the back deck and next to my Bella. "Love?" I ask, my voice coated with the tone of concern. "Are you all right?" She looked at me, almost as if I had broken her out of a trance.
"Yeah... I'm just thinking is all." She said, It made me worry, the way she was acting at the moment, deep in thought.
"What are you thinking?" I ask as I wrap my arms around her from behind, my hands overlapping each other over her navel, and resting my cheek against her head.
"Well... I'm thinking about how happy I am to be engaged, especially to the person I am in love with, I guess it's just the nerves getting to me.." She paused for a deep breath, and to place one hand on top of mine. "But I've also been thinking... about how we should talk about some things." I was confused now.
"What do you mean Bella?"
"I mean... we should talk about things that we want in our future like future possibilities for us." This eased my nerves a bit, it was actually a great idea.
"Yes, we should talk about those things, why don't you write down in a notebook topics that we should talk about while I get you and myself some lunch?" She nodded, turned in my arms, and looked at me, placing a soft warm kiss upon my lips before we both went inside. When I entered the kitchen, Bella followed after me, sitting at the breakfast bar, writing down the topics in the notebook. She had insisted on wanting to help me with lunch, but I politely refused, working on ham and cheese sandwiches and pulled out a bag of Frito Honey Barbeque spiral chips.
Slowly, after setting things down on the counter, I took my seat, and started to eat waiting for her to finish. It looked like she had almost twenty different topics on it when she was done, but that was alright, perhaps it was good that we were talking this stuff out. She began eating, and gave me a thank you look before focusing on her food again.
It wasn't long until we were both finished eating and both got ourselves situated on the couch. "Ok Bella, what topics have you written?" I ask as I casually grab the notebook to read the topics.
Kind of Wedding?
Honeymoon?
People we should invite?
Children?
Pets?
Ok, I was wrong, it wasn't twenty... but the things made it seem like more, but the one question that struck me the most was, "Children." She wanted children? This made me happier than anyone could ever know. Most of the friends of mine, who were women said they despised little children and I could never figure out why. "Bella?" I gasped.
"Yes?" She asked me, looking nervous.
"You... you want children with me?" I asked happily. She looked at me and smiled. She nodded before scooting closer to me.
"Of course I do, you are the love of my life, why wouldn't I?" She had a point, but still, I couldn't help the joy I felt. She cleared her throat and looked at the paper, "Ok... so how many children would you want in the future?" I sat there, and thought, trying to think of an exact number.
"Well, I know how you've always grown up in a big family... me not so much, but I know I want a big family. So, it doesn't matter, so long as it isn't something like cheaper by the dozen." I say with a laugh, getting a laugh out of her.
"Ok... I'm glad to hear that, cause I've always wanted a large family as well." She said with a smile before looking down at the notebook paper. "What about pets?" She asked.
"Love them, love them all, cats, dogs, reptiles, amphibians, all.. well except for poisonous things." This caused her to laugh, and pull me straight into a passionate kiss. Her lips upon mine were lip liquid honey as they overlapped mine. I let out a groan of pleasure when I felt Bella's tongue lightly sweep across my bottom lip, asking for entrance, and I permitted it.
"Edward... I-... I want you." She said, almost nervous.. at first I didn't quiet understand until I felt Bella's hands travel to the bottom of my shirt, signalling she wanted to remove it.
"Are.. Are you sure?" I asked, overjoyed. She nodded, softly biting her bottom lips. This is when I lost the control to yield myself from her. Kisses as soft as silk were given as I swept her into my arms, heading towards our bedroom. Once again our tongues made their way passed each others lips as I slowly laid her down onto the bed. Our eyes were half-lidded as we gazed lovingly at each other. Our hands began to explore, mine traveled from her neck to her shoulders, down her arms, going down her sides, and giving her hips a gentle, playful squeeze, making my way back up to her neck. Her hands had gone down and rested themselves on my hips, making my heart race.
The fast pace of her heart was overly exciting, and for the first time in my life.. I wanted to test my limits. I slowly let my right hand travel down her side as I moved my lips to her neck and lightly squeezed her thigh, moving her leg so it would be curved over my hip.. and this excited me more than anyone could ever know especially when I felt her heart begin to thud against her chest and mine. A smile broke onto my face as I continued to kiss her. Subconsciously I moved my hand to her chest, and caressed her in the most gentle of ways causing her to make a pleasured whimper before our passion overtook us into the night.
