Eventually it got late and was time for us to go. Edward offered to take me home, and I graciously took it, though I never wanted to go home to the Swan house. I loved my parents, really I did, but they never supported me. At least they tried to, but I could see they were lying the whole time. Whether it was when I was in the 7th grade play, or when I decided to go to Stanford, 7 hours away from them, they were never truly supportive. Even with that, they were still my parents. As Edward drove out of his parents' house, I asked the question I had been wondering about and had been asked a million times by Alice. This was also the question I knew all guys hated. I actually hated it too, but only because every time I asked it, I was always given and answer I didn't like. Such as: "oh I really like you… as a friend." I quickly put all those thoughts into the back of my mind, and began.

"Edward?"

"Yes Bella?"

"Where exactly are we? I mean what are we? I mean I like you a lot, and so are we like just dating, or are we going out, or what?" I stopped, realizing I was babbling. There was a moment of silence, as Edward blew out a breath.

"Bella, I like you... a lot, a little too much I think. I want to do this right. So for now, we should date, but only each other. I wouldn't be able to stand it if I saw you with another guy. Just seeing that James kid all over you was too much to handle. How does that sound?" I felt a smile rise on my face. That was exactly what I wanted too. I didn't want to rush into anything, but I didn't want us to be casual. This is perfect.

"I think that sounds great," I replied as Edward reached for my hand and held it in his. Before I knew it, we were at my parents' house. "Walk me to the door?" I asked him.

"Of course," he replied, smiled, and walked around the car to my door. Edward held out a hand, and I placed mine in his. We walked together in unison, feeling as one. We reached the front door, and I turned to face Edward.

"Be ready at 8 tomorrow night," he told me.

"For what?"

"Our date silly," he smirked.

"Oh, okay," I smiled, feeling silly, as Edward said I was. We stood there for a moment, lost in each others eyes, in our feeling for one another. After a few minutes, Edward moved his hand to place it softly on my cheek. He rubbed my jaw line with his thumb. Suddenly, he turned around and walked away. I stood there, motionless, awed by him for a few moments, watching him drive away. I quickly shook out of my present state, and walked in the house.

"Oh honey you're back!" my mom greeted my at the door, "how was your night at the Cullen's last night?" Last night, what was she talking about?

"Um, what mom?"

"Last night. Alice called and told me you were staying with her last night. Am I wrong?" Yes, you are wrong.

"Nope. That's right mom. We had fun, played games with the whole family and what not." My mom stared me down for a minute, trying to see if I was telling the truth or not. She quickly shrugged it off.

"Well, I made some chicken for dinner."

"Mom, I'm really not hungry, I ate at the Cullen's not too long ago. I think I'm just gunna go to bed. Alice, I'm sure, is going to force me to go shopping tomorrow. So I better get some rest."

"Oh okay sweetie."

"Night Renee," I waved and walked up the stairs to my room. I turned on the light to my room. It was the first time I'd been in my room in years. I noticed some of my bags Charlie graciously put in my room. As I sat down on my bed, exhausted from the great two days I had just had, my phone rang. I pulled my phone out of my back pocket and checked the caller ID. It was Alice.

"Hey Alice, what's up?"

"Bella, Edward just told me you and him are going on a date tomorrow night. Well I sort of really pulled it out of him, but whatever. We HAVE to get you something to wear. I'll be over tomorrow morning at 10. So be ready. Night!" I didn't even have a say in going shopping tomorrow, but that was Alice for you.

I got undressed, changed into some pajamas, and laid down. I thought about my whole day, and how amazing Edward was. Soon, I let sleep take over me, as I floated in a bed of unconsciousness.

"HONK!" I heard a car outside my house, meaning Alice was here. I ran into the kitchen and grabbed a bagel.

"Bye mom! Bye dad!" I yelled to them, as they were reading their morning paper. I put the bagel into my mouth and shrugged on my jacket. I ran out the door only to be shocked by what was parked in my driveway. It was a yellow Porsche. I don't know much about cars, but I did know that this has got to be a damn expensive one, even for Beverly Hills.

"What the hell is this Alice?" I asked, getting into the front seat.

"It's a car silly," she replied as if it was just a normal car.

"What I mean is, you got a Porsche?"

"Yup," she smiled. "Well I need something to drive around in LA in. This was the best thing I could find. And of course it had to be yellow. It's more noticeable.

"Well of course," I said, clutching onto the seat while Alice sped away.

We spent the day shopping for one outfit, but managed to get fifty. We shopped mostly in Rodeo Drive, and though I hated shopping, I had fun. Half way through our day we met up with Rosalie or Rose as she told me to call her. By now, we were all back at my house, trying to find the perfect outfit for tonight. All Edward told Alice was that he was taking me to a casual Italian bistro.

"What does that mean? I mean bistros are fancy, but he said it was casual. Oh my god, this is terrible. What are you going to wear?" Alice was frantic in my room, while I tried on an outfit in my bathroom.

"Alice, chill. We'll make this work," I heard Rose relaxing Alice. I was really starting to take a liking to her.

"Okay guys, I think this one will work," I said, referring to my outfit and walked out of my bathroom. I was wearing a pair of skinny jeans, a white tank top with a black scarf and a black leather jacket. I put on a few necklaces and to top it all off, I wore my favorite boots.

"Bella, you look…"

"HOT!" Rose said, finishing Alice's comment.

"Thanks guys!" I said. For the next half hour, Alice and Rose attacked me with make up and beauty products. Once they were done, we sat and started talking. But then, the door bell rang.

"I'll get it!" Alice yelled. With that, she ran to the door and opened it. Rose and I rolled our eyes and walked to the door. My heart skipped a beat. Edward was there looking as hot as ever. He was wearing semi-formal jeans, a light brown shirt, and a dark brown jacket. He looked amazing. After staring for god only knows how long, Edward stepped inside and walked towards me.

"Shall we?" He asked holding out his hand. I took it and nodded. He led me outside and I waved and winked back at Alice and Rose. This night was going to be great!
