I dialled Emmett's number on my mobile so the digits shone up on the screen. I confirmed my choice of numbers and waited until he picked up. The rings faded into each other while I tapped my foot impatiently. My brother answered eventually, a bored tone in his voice, "Hello?"
"Emmett - it's me. Have you gone yet?"
"Yeah, we've got her."
"Were you late?"
He sighed in obvious exasperation. "No, we weren't late."
"Put her on the line."
"Okay ... Here she is."
It didn't take long for Bella's lyrics to float through the speaker. "Bella -" I started, but was immediately interrupted.
"Edward! What on Earth is going on?!"
I couldn't prevent myself from laughing at her tone. "Bella ... Bells, calm down."
It took me precious minutes to stop her from nearly exploding. Every second counted. "Listen. Emmett and Jasper will be dragging you away as I speak, but I need you to trust me."

The gentle rumble of the engine starting disrupted our conversation for a few moments. I waited until the vehicle was in motion before continuing to put the phone to my ear. I only caught the last part of his sentence of needing to trust him. "Always," I promised.
"I'm afraid that they'll need to blindfold you before you can see the location."
"No!"
"You're right, I'm just joking." I could hear the laughter from the other side, wherever that place may be.
"Not fair." I tried sounding annoyed but without success. "I'm not going on a treasure hunt for you again. Why did you just disappear today without telling me?"
I could almost hear him tapping his nose. "All will be revealed." I heard scuffling and hushed talking.
"Edward, what's going on?"
"I've got to go now. I'll see you soon though, love."
"Edward! Tell me what's happening!"
The last I heard was a confirmation of some sort and then the line went dead.
I turned the mobile off, a puzzled expression trying at my features. "Here." I handed the electronic object back to Emmett who smirked when he saw my face.
"Almost there."
The thought made butterflies sweep through my insides. Where were we heading?
I closed my eyes and placed my head against the cool glass. It soothed and helped me think straight. A party? No. Alice and Rose would have joined me in the car. It would have saved extra hastle. An important announcement? No. Surely Carlisle and Esme would have come round or phoned to say something earlier.
By the time the car had stopped, the most I had come up with was an important and somewhat fancy dance. I desperately hoped it wasn't. My feet were about as coordinated as a drunk elephant's.
I peeked out of the window just as Jasper came out of the driver's side of the car. He opened the door for me, a faint smile painted on his lips. I nodded my thanks as I hesitantly stepped out. My mouth gaped as I saw the 'secret' place. I might as well have been Alice as my excitement overflowed. The two brothers escorted me inside the fanciest restaurant I had ever seen. As I passed the revolving doors, I could see an anxious but none-the-less handsome Edward waiting for me and I couldn't help a grin spread across my whole face.
Any ideas yet? ;)
I'd like to mention two people. Firstly, Hale.. for my first ever review *dances* and secondly, twilight37 for the invaluable advice, encouragement and simple help that has brought me to put these chapters down for everyone to read.
Once again, read, review and recommend, people!
