Chapter 6
"Oh Edward, it will be great, if we find it!" I suddenly felt cheerful with the thought of the engagement ring placed back on my hand.
"Let's start searching for it, then" He smiled at me, and flew away.
"Hey Where are you going?" I shouted at him.
"I am going to try to spot it from up here" He shouted back at me.
"Oh" I said and he laughed.
I started searching, tried to walk carefully through all the glass and our broken furniture. How it broke my heart seeing the house my father bought for me, and the decoration we did in it with Edward all becoming dust.
"We'll never find it Edward" I said with sadness in my voice.
"Don't lose hope love, keep looking" he smiled at me.
Hope. I looked at him. He was flying up in the sky, searching for the ring. What to hope for? To die soon enough, in order to be close to him? Hope for what? All the dreams I made, they couldn't come true. I looked down. I didn't want to make him think I was tearing again….
"Any Luck" I shouted?
"It's really hard trying to spot it, but we'll find it my love" he was hopeful.
"Don't you think you are too high to actually see it?" I joked.
"Ha-ha no love, I see better from here, keep searching" he laughed.
I found a photograph of us. It was taken on our first date.
Memories started coming in my mind again.

"So this guy is…I mean he is nice? You like him?" Charlie said with an anxious voice.
"Of course dad I like him...otherwise I wouldn't go out with him" I smiled at my dad.
"Aha well I trust your taste, but he should bring you home at 12 AM sharp!" he demanded.
"Yes daddy" I kissed his cheek. "Don't you worry, Edward is a great guy" he was perfect to be honest. Then the bell rang. My heart started beating so fast. Did I look beautiful enough? Was I ready for our first date? Will he like me? Before I tried to answer all those questions my dad opened the door.
"Hello" I heard his velvet voice."You must be Bella's father, I am Edward, Nice to meet you" He smiled with his perfect white teeth showing out. He is as kind as always I thought, while I tried to calm down my breathing and heartbeat.
"Hey Edward, yes I am Bella's dad, Charlie, nice to meet you too kid" he tried to be polite. "Come on in, I think Bella is still getting ready" he giggled.
"Alright, thank you" Edward said and came in.
Oh perfect now he was in, here, ahh. Relax Bella, everything will be fine. I was wearing a beautiful blue dress that Alice picked for me. She said Edward loved the blue colour on me. I looked at myself in the mirror for the last time, took a deep breath and walked down the stairs.
"You look stunning" Edward said to me and gave me his hand. I touched it.
"Thank you Edward" I blushed.
"I promise to bring this diamond back to you, Charlie at 12 AM sharp" he winked at my dad.
"Yes, do that" my dad said seriously. "Have fun kiddo" he told me and kissed my cheek. Kiddo, grr I was not a kid anymore. Since I wasn't in the mood for arguing, I just smiled and said bye to him.
Edward brought his silver Volvo. He opened the door for me to sit, and then he drove away.
"You are so beautiful Bella, I am afraid to bring you to a place with a lot of people, in case somebody decides to steal you from me" he touched my hand.
"Don't be ridiculous Edward; No one is stealing me from you. I should be the one who is afraid. You look perfect always, have you seen how all our female classmates look at you?" oops I overreacted.
"I am all yours love"
And then I knew it, he was the man of my life. I loved him in all the possible ways.
"I am all yours too" I caressed his hand.
We arrived at a beautiful restaurant near a lake. We sat down at a table, decorated with candles and flowers, near to a beautiful lake. We could also see the moon clearly.
"It's so beautiful here" I told him.
"Not as much as you are" he smiled my favourite crooked smile.
We spent the night, chatting, laughing, touching each other hands, and then he asked me to dance.
"Will you dance with me?" he proposed. Since I didn't want to ruin the moment with my clumsiness I said " Yes"
He picked me up and we were dancing for hours, under the moon. I thought I would do something wrong but he was such a good dancer that he could totally guide me. Then I sensed a flash and I turned around and saw a guy taking pictures of us. Oh no, I thought.
"We always do that for the happy couples" the guy said with a huge smile on his face. "We think that people want to have a photo to remind them of this night" he winked at us and gave us the pictures.
"Thank you" Edward said and winked back.
I smiled.
"What do you think?" Edward said.
"Oh they look…magical" yes they did.
"They do, just as magical as you" he got me closer to him, and gave me my first kiss.
"I love you" he whispered to me.
"I love you too" I whispered back, and kissed him again.
The memory faded away and I heard Edward saying
"Bella love, I think I found something" he landed on the ground.
I went near him, he was holding something, and I came near him to examine it. And there it was, in all its glory, my engagement ring. He touched my hand and put it to my finger. I had Goosebumps.
"Make sure to not lose it again" he giggled and winked at me.
"Never" I said.
