Once my hunger was satisfied we headed home. We took our time just enjoying each other. I knew that once we got home that Alice would be at my side like white on rice. We hit the driveway and I could see Alice standing in the doorway a cheshire grin on her face. Edward threw her a look and she quickly closed the door.

"What's going on?" I asked him, lacing my fingers together with his. "Did Alice have a vision?"

"Yes. I was hoping to keep this from her at least for awhile but you know Alice. I have a question for you." I looked at him in concern and then he dropped to one knee still gripping my hand in his. "Isabella Marie Swan will you marry me?" If it could have my heart would have stopped beating. I heard a screech from the house and I laughed.

"Apparently Alice has already seen what I say. But don't read her thoughts. I want you to hear it from me and not from inside her head. YES. With all of my heart Edward Masen Cullen. I will marry you." He stood up and pulled me close kissing me passionately. Then he pulled out a small velvet bag from his pants pocket. I've been carrying this around since before Phoenix. I had planned on asking you after the baseball game that day. I just never got the chance."

"I hope you didn't spend money on me." He shook his head. He knew I hated it when he spent money on me.

"No I didn't buy this. My mother gave it to me before she died. She didn't know that I would get sick as well. But anyway she told me to only give it to my true love. And that's you Bella. Forever and always."

I was speechless as he pulled the ring from the bag. It wasn't showy, it was perfect. It was a single round cut 1 carat diamond flanked by 2 emeralds on each side. And as he slid it on my finger it fit perfectly.

"Alright love. Let's get inside before Alice has a fit. I love you." He said pulling me roughly against his hard body and kissing me passionately again. As he broke the kiss I almost felt light headed. Would he always affect me like this? I certainly hoped so.

"And I love you Edward." We continued into the house, his arm wrapped tightly around my waist. Knowing he could hear me I spoke silently in my head. I was going to need to work on my shielding abilities. But until then, it wouldn't hurt to let him know a bit of what was going on in my head.

*Edward I know that you can hear me so I just want you to listen. I want you. More than ever. So now that I have changed we are going to give that couch of yours a workout. Do you understand me? Just nod if you do.* I glanced at him as we walked through the front door and Alice pulled me away begging me to let her plan the wedding. Meeting my eyes Edward nodded. I smiled. Jasper grunted at me. Poor Jasper, he knew what both Edward and I were feeling. Alice pulled Esme and Rosalie along with me into her and Jasper's room and began pulling out bridal magazines. Rosalie had a pained look on her face. I turned to her and grabbed her hand.

"Rosalie are you okay?" She shook her head and broke down even though we couldn't shed tears.

"Oh Bella. I am so sorry. I love you like a sister but I didn't want this for you. I wish I had been more understanding and helpful. I'm so sorry that you have to live like this." I pulled her close to hug her. I knew that whatever words I could say would not make her feel better but she had to know.

"Rose. It wasn't your fault. So I want you to stop thinking like that right now. You are my sister now. I love Edward. And while I wish it was him that changed me I wouldn't go back. I wanted this. Now are you going to forget about this and agree to be my bridesmaid?" I smiled at her still holding her hand.

"Of course." Hugging her I turned to Alice who was poring over the bridal magazine.

"So Alice, where do we begin?"

"First of all Edward told me to tell you that he will be back in a few hours. He is going into town to pick something up and it's a surprise for you." She said smiling. Alice knew what it was but I knew there was no way that I would get it out of her.

"Okay. I guess." Then we girls sat there for the next few hours discussing the wedding. It would have to wait until Rosalie and Emmett graduated and after the move. With me as a newly changed vampire it was not a good idea for us to stay in Forks. Edward and Alice were going to spread it around Forks that Carlisle had gotten a wonderful job offer in Alaska and that it was too hard for Edward to stay around here where every where he looked he would see me. I was worried about Charlie but Alice assured me that he would be fine. He would be upset that she was leaving since she had been my best friend and he would feel as though he was losing me all over again but he would quickly recover. She also assured me that he would remarry in a few years and live till he was 80. It was hard to hear but I was happy for my dad.

A knock sounded throughout the room and I looked up and saw Edward standing there with a grin on his face. I hadn't realized he was home.

"Ladies, might I borrow Bella?" They giggled with some unknown secret and nodded. As I followed him out of the room he grabbed my hand and spun me into his arms. Kissing me he was soon covering my eyes with a blindfold.

"Edward is this really necessary?" I asked a little annoyed but slightly intrigued.

"Yes love. You wouldn't want to spoil my surprise for you now would you?" I laughed as he pulled me along with him in the direction of our bedroom. Pulling me into the room he closed and locked the door.

"Edward can I please take this silly thing off now?"

"If you would like too." I pulled off the blindfold and was surprised at the sight before me. In the spot where his couch used to be was a king sized wooden bed. I spun around to him as he leaned against the door grinning. Growling I leapt at him and he accepted my weight as we crashed against the bedroom door. I began kissing him with every ounce of my being. Wrapping my arms and legs around him he crushed my body against his and holding me against him started for the bed. I pulled at his shirt desperate to feel his skin. I felt the fabric of my shirt strain as he fumbled to pull it over my head without unlocking our lips. I giggled as he growled when it would cooperate. Frustrated he finally just ripped it and tossed it across the room.

Still holding me tight never breaking our kiss, Edward pushed me down against the mattress. We were frenzied now. Neither one of us cared about anything other than each other, buttons flew, clothes ripped. And then all of a sudden he stopped and pulled back. I growled at the loss of contact. He gazed down at me unsure.

"Bella are you sure that you want to do this? Before the wedding?" I thought about for about a second and crawled up on my hands and knees and purring crawled towards him. Hearing me purr must have set something off inside of him and answered his question and he pounced on me taking me down hard against the mattress.

Our hands moved over each other's bodies exploring. We were both new to this and while I knew that we both should go slow I couldn't stop myself. I ran my nails down his back and he hissed in my ear with pleasure. He ripped through the clasp of my bra with his teeth. I shivered as his breath hit my skin. He didn't stop as he shimmied his way down my body first kissing my breasts and then placing kisses along my stomach only stopping when he reached the waist band of my jeans. Ripping the button off, he pulled my jeans off and tossed them over his head. They hit the ground with a thud. His followed quickly after. He started kissing my again along my stomach tracing the edge of my underwear with the tip of his finger. I shivered with pleasure. He glanced up at me and his eyes were coal black. But this time I knew he wasn't hungry for blood. He was hungry for me and my body. My eyes stayed on his as he slowly pulled my underwear down with one finger pulling them down my legs. I didn't realize it until then that my Edward had not been wearing any underwear himself. The thought nearly sent me over the edge. He pulled my legs open and did something I never thought he would do. My scream echoed throughout the house. Suddenly there was a banging at the door. Lifting his head Edward glaring at the door and growled which was even louder than my scream. I would have hated to be the person on the other side of that door because he was going to kill them. Apparently the person on the other side heard the growl and got the hint because we were not interrupted again.

Grabbing him by his hair I pulled him up to my lips, he settled in between my legs. Gazing into my eyes he pushed slowly forward. There was a slight pinch and he was in fully. Purring in his ear I begged him on. We were both even more frenzied now. I could feel his teeth skim my neck and I turned slightly so that he would have better access. He couldn't have asked for a better invitation. I ran my tongue along the side of his neck and bit his collarbone lightly. He must have liked that because he was thrusting harder with each time. I grabbed the wooden bars above my head and that's when I heard the crack but at that moment I didn't care what it was. I could tell he was getting close, and dear god I was already there. We screamed out our release at the same time. Flopping down on top of me I welcomed his hard weight against my body. He rolled off me onto his side gathering me in his arms pulling the covers over us. If I could sleep I would have fallen asleep. We could have stayed that way forever content not to move.

"We definitely have to do that again." Edward said brushing my hair out of my face.

"Oh I most certainly agree." Turning in his arms I kissed him sweetly and laid my head on his chest. That's when I looked at the bed. We were laying at a funny angle. The bars of the bed were crushed. Laughing I pushed away from him. He growled his anger of my moving. Laughing I flung the covers back and started around the room for my clothes. "Edward love we are going to need a new bed. We broke this one. "I started to get dressed but realized that my clothes were useless. "And we need to get me some clothing." I heard Alice squeal downstairs. She must have seen us shopping. Oh lord I was in for it now. "Now love, get your butt out of that bed and help me find something to wear." I laughed as I yanked the covers off him.

"Are you sure you want to go downstairs?" He questioned climbing off the bed coming at me like a predator. I glanced at his body and knew there was no way I was leaving the room for another hour. And we didn't but I didn't protest too much either.

When we finally emerged from the bedroom to find the family sitting in the living room watch Buffy the Vampire Slayer. I couldn't help but laugh. Emmett was sitting next to Rosalie with his arm around her shoulder holding her hand. Alice was on Jasper's lap whispering in his ear.

"God why do we watch this show? It's not even accurate." Emmett grumbled.

"Alice likes it. That's why we watch it. It's amusing." Rosalie stated as a matter of fact.

"Where's Esme and Carlisle?"I asked plopping down on Edward's lap after he sat down in the recliner.

"In town. They wanted to get some things before we moved. Plus a storm is coming. It's going to hit town as soon as they get back. Time for baseball." Alice said as she looked at me. "Are you going to play Bella?"

"I don't know. I've never been one for baseball." I said cringing.

"Yes but you have an advantage being a newborn." She looked so excited I didn't have the heart to tell her no.

"Alright Alice. I'll play." It was only a few minutes later that Esme and Carlisle walked in and took one look at Alice's face and they knew. It was only a matter of minutes before everyone was ready.

"Are you ready?" Edward asked wrapping his arms around me. "You'll do fine. Trust me."

"I always do."

"Then follow me and try and keep up." He chuckled at me and in a split second was gone. Oh no he was not going to get off that easy. I raced after him. Carlisle and Esme's laughter sounded behind me as I raced after him.

As we entered the clearing I could see Edward standing there with his hands on his hips as if he was waiting for me. I crashed into him tackling him to the ground.

"I beat you love." He laughed kissing the tip of my nose.

"Only because you had a head start and knew where we were going." I laughed with him and kissed him passionately. The discreet cough that sounded behind us made us realize that we were not alone.

"Alright you two. Can we play some ball?" I heard Emmett behind me and growled softly. Rosalie and Alice laughed and started making teams. Because Edward and I were the fastest we were placed on separate teams. Girls against guys. I was up first. Jasper was pitching. I missed the first pitch. Growling I was determined not to miss the second. I didn't. A loud crack sounded through the air as the bat connected to the ball. I took off. I knew Edward would be after it. I could barely think as I rounded the bases. Almost home. I slid into home a fraction of a sec before Carlisle caught the ball.

"SAFE!" Esme shouted. The guys growled at the call. The game continued for hours. Alice called te game to an end as soon as the storm stopped. The girls had won. 10-9.

"Edward, I will meet you back at the house." Giggling I raced off into the woods. At least this time he wouldn't have the advantage over me. This time I knew where I was going. I arrived at the driveway of the house only a few seconds before he did. "Hello my love." I said singly as I danced away from his fingers. Laughing as he lunged for me I easily sidestepped him again. Laughing at him I raced through the front door and up the stairs to our room with Edward closely at my heels. I was still laughing when I reached our bedroom and waited only a few seconds before he was slamming the door and wrapping me in his arms.

"Do you know how much I love you Isabella Cullen?" He whispered against my skin.

"Isabella Cullen? Now that is something that I could get used to. I love you my Edward, forever and a lifetime after that."

"And I you my love. Until there are no more stars in the sky."
