BPOV
I giggled slightly as I woke, feeling someone running their fingers up and down my spine under my shirt. I smirked and looked up at Edward, grinning and kissing his cheek before sighing and rolling off of him.
"Morning Bella." Edward smiled and I smirked at him and went to speak before stopping.
"I'm not sick! I can breathe! I can smell…I need a shower." I crinkled my nose as I smelt my clothes.
"I don't mind, you smell good no matter what." Edward smirked and pushed me right down onto my back, pressing his chest against mine and smiling down at me.
"No I don't. Now let me up, I need to shower and change and get everything ready and make Ricky my famous pancakes." I said and pushed at Edward's chest before giving up and glaring at him playfully.
"I want something first." Edward said and I pouted slightly before kissing his lips lightly, pulling back after a second. "One more." Edward said and pushed his lips to mine, kissing me for several seconds before I managed to push him onto the bed beside me and I bolted from the room, running into my room and closing the door.
I grabbed my towel and shower things before walking into my bathroom and getting in the shower. I blushed as I looked in the mirror across from the shower and I quickly shaved my legs and armpits, being careful not to cut myself with the razor.
Once out the showed I walked over to my draws and smiled because it was a nice day before getting dressed into my black underwear, black short shorts, a white singlet, socks and my boots before walking over to Edward's room and knocking on the door.
"Come in." he called and I walked into the room to find him standing by his draws, buttoning his pants up with a completely bare chest and wet mess hair.
"Hey, you can have your hoody back but in return I want a top to wear." I bargained and Edward laughed before reaching into his draws and pulling out a baby blue checkered flannel top. I giggled at he handed it to be before I dumped his hoody on the bed and pulled the top on, leaving it open.
"You can keep the hoody. But I want a kiss." Edward said and I pouted and shook my head as I sat down on the bed.
Edward walked closer until he was standing between my thighs before pushing me back into the bed and kissing me feverously.
"Knock, knock." I heard Alice voice before a giggle and I pushed Edward back from me, gasping and covering my face as I looked at Alice.
"I knew it!" Alice squealed and I got up and ran over to her, placing my hand over her mouth.
"Alice, not fare. I'm not actually allowed to be kissing your brother, so please don't tell." I pouted and Alice giggled before nodding and hugging me.
"You guys are going to make a great couple and don't worry, we had bets on how long it would take for you two to get together, seeing as you've been flirting and making puppy dog eyes at each other since the very first day of you being here, Bella." Alice said quickly and I blushed before looking back at Edward.
"Alice, just leave." Edward groaned to his little sister and I blushed before gasping as I saw the time.
"I better go too. I'll make you pancakes." I said and I grabbed the hoody of Edwards and ran out the room, throwing it into my room as I ran past before running down the stairs.
"Esme, do you have the things for making Pancakes? I promised Ricky I'd make him pancakes for breakfast." I said and Esme pulled open a cupboard full of baking things.
"You are a legend. Thank you." I said and gave Esme a hug before pulling out everything. By the time I had finished making the pancakes it was 7.53am and I heard someone walking down the stairs as I put the last pancake on the big plate and carried it to a table where there were several little plates, seeing as I made enough for everyone.
"Bella, Edward carried me down the stairs!" Ricky grinned and I smiled before taking him from Edward and hugging him.
"Well, Edward can have some of the chocolate chip blueberry pancakes." I said and Ricky gasped before hugging me tightly. "Can I have some too?" he asked and I grinned before putting him down on the ground.
Ricky ran to the table and got up into a seat, getting a plate and a pancake before putting maple syrup on it.
"Esme, would you like some Pancakes? I made enough for everyone to have some." I said and I heard people walking into the house before Carlisle, Rosalie, Emmett, Alice and Jasper all walked in and spotted the pancakes.
"Do you guys want some? I made enough for everyone." I said and they all thanked me before going and sitting down at the table.
I grabbed two small pancakes and put my plate on the kitchen counter and ate there as I watched everyone smiling and laughing and talking like a normal family. It made me smile that Ricky was getting a chance to see what a family is supposed to be like.
"Bella, earth to Bella." I heard someone whisper in my ear and I pulled myself back to reality and I looked at Edward who was standing beside me.
"Yea?" I asked and Edward gestured to the empty table. "They all thanked you and left to do their work. I sent Ricky to have a shower and get dressed." Edward said and I nodded before turning with my barely eaten pancakes and put that plate on the bench before starting to rinse the dishes and put them in the dishwasher.
"Bella, what's wrong?" Edward asked as he walked up behind me and placed his hands on my hips. I smiled and shook my head before bending over and putting the last dish in the dishwasher, turning around and having Edward push me up against the bench.
"Tell me what's wrong, please Bella." Edward pleaded and I sighed before shaking my head.
"It's nothing Edward. I'm going to go tack Mystic. Can you wait for Ricky and I'll get Emmett to help me with two more horses?" I asked and Edward sighed before nodding and giving me a light kiss on the lips.
I ran out to the stables and found Emmett in the hay loft, sitting down and cleaning some tack.
"Hey Em, me and Edward want to teach Ricky to ride and take him out. Can you give me a hand and tack a horse for Ricky and then help me tack Comet for Edward?" I asked and Emmett got up and smiled at me.
"Sure Hell-Bells. Any little brother of yours is a little brother of mine." Emmett said and slung one arm around my shoulders and kissed my cheek.
"Come on you big goof!" I giggled and pushed him away before climbing down the ladder and going to the tack room. I grabbed everything I needed to tack Mystic and walked into his stall, putting everything over the fence before going up to Emmett.
"I need the gentlest horse possible for Ricky; I don't want to send him back to my parents with a broken arm." I ordered and Emmett saluted me before going back to what I had told him to do.
"Hey gorgeous, I was looking for my mate but I guess you're better." I heard a voice say and I turned around and crossed my arms over my chest as I stared up at the large male in front of me.
"Excuse me? I'll wait for you to take you fucking foot out your mouth and then you can repeat yourself because if what I heard was right, I will deck you." I sneered and the guy laughed as Edward walked up and looked the guy up and down before hoisting Ricky up onto the fence and standing beside me.
"What has you laughing now, Jacob?" Edward asked as he lightly placed his arm around my waist.
"I was just talking to the little miss." 'Jacob' smirked and I glared at him. "I wasn't joking. I will deck you." I snarled and Jacob's eyes widened before he snorted and walked off.
"What was that about?" Ricky asked and I smirked before walking over and lifting him down.
"Just a classic case of a guy with his foot in his overly large and unflattering mouth, you know the case mini-Cena." I said and Ricky grinned before unzipping his jersey and showing me the Cena tee shirt I had gotten him.
Edward laughed behind me and I poked my tongue out at him before turning and continuing to tack Mystic.
"Ricky, go find Emmett, he's getting a horse ready for you to ride." I smiled and Ricky grinned before running out the stall and down the aisle.
"I'm finished here, shall we go get Comet ready?" I asked and Edward smiled before poking his head out the door.
Once he was satisfied he shut the top half of the door and clipped it shut before putting an arm around my waist and pulling me to him.
"Had to make sure no one was there so I could do this." Edward murmured quietly before pressing his lips to mine and kissing me feverously as I backed up against the wall.
I smirked as Edward lifted me up with his hands on my thighs and pushed me back even more against the wall before I pushed him back and made him put me down. I shoved the door open with my foot and pushing Edward out it before leading Mystic out after him.
"Go get your horse ready, I'll tie Mystic by the arena and go find Emmett." I said and Edward nodded before walking in the opposite direction to me.
"Bella! Hi!" I heard Ricky's voice and I looked around before spotting him sitting on Taz, Alice's small paint pony.
"Hey Buddy." I grinned and walked over, stopping Mystic beside them and going to throw myself up into the saddle.
"I'll help you there." Jasper's voice came from behind me and I gasped as he grabbed my waist before lifting me up and holding me on one shoulder.
"Put me down Jazz! Alice! Get your psycho boyfriend to put me down!" I giggled and Alice walked up and looked up at me before looking at Jasper.
"Jazzy, put Bella down or next time everyone's out we wont have-" "Little brother around Alice!" I said before she could continue and she looked at Ricky who was giggling before smiling.
"We won't have a game of Twister." Alice said and Emmett, Jasper and I burst out laughing before I hoisted myself up into the saddle and looked down at Ricky on the smaller horse beside me.
"You ready?" I heard Edward call and I turned to see him trotting over on Comet. "Yea. Come on Ricky, to get Taz to go, kick your heel into her side lightly." I said and Ricky did as I said. He was wearing one of the learning helmets and vest on and I smirked as Taz started walking beside Mystic.
"Nice one Ricky. Steer by pulling to the side you want to do like this." I said and kicked Mystic into a trot before slowing him to a walk once I was ahead enough and making him turn in a circle.
"Nice!" Ricky said and we turned a corner to follow the fence line, me on one side of Ricky and Edward on the other.
I laughed as Ricky kicked his heel into Taz's side but Taz just turned his head and looked at Ricky before continuing to walk.
"Come on, let's go a little faster." I said and waited for Edward and then Ricky to move faster before I slowly moved up behind them, giggling as Ricky faltered slightly before slowing Taz down to a walk.
"Maybe I'll just walk." He said and I smiled before pulling Mystic to a stop and itching my leg.
"You alright Bella?" Edward called and I nodded as He stopped before I kicked Mystic to a walk and I walked beside Edward with Ricky a few metres ahead of us.
"Are you sure you are ok Bella? You seem really distant." Edward murmured just loud enough for me to hear and I looked at him before shrugging.
"I don't want to talk." I said and Edward reached out and placed his hand on my leg before I pulled Mystic away form him a little so he couldn't reach my leg.
"I said I'm fine." I snapped as Edward gave me a sympathetic look before I kicked Mystic into a faster walk so I moved ahead and was riding beside Ricky.
"So, we should be getting back around lunch time so what shall we do when we get back?" I asked and Ricky turned and grinned at me.
"Could you play a song and sing for me?" Ricky asked and I smiled before looking ahead. "Ricky, I left my guitar at home. It was too much to bring." I said and Ricky gave me a sly smile before shaking his head.
"Mum said that I could bring it for you because Mr. and Mrs. Cullen said you have been good. Now you have your guitar here. It's sitting in my bedroom and I know how much you love to sing and play. I bet you miss it." Ricky said and I gave him a smile before looking back to see Edward was gone.
"I do miss it…Wait up a moment Ricky." I said and turned Mystic around; riding back a few metres till I could see around the corner to see Edward was galloping in the opposite direction.
"What's wrong Bella?" Ricky asked as I walked back up beside up and we continued to walk.
"Nothing…everything…I don't really know." I groaned and Ricky laughed at me before putting one hand over his mouth and trying to hold the laughter in.
"Awe Bella, I'm sorry but you sound funny. I've never heard you talk like this." Ricky said and I threw him a pout. "Will you please tell me why you're upset?" Ricky asked and I sighed before pointing to a small clearing up a bit where we could stop.
"I'll tell you over there, when we stop." I said and Ricky turned Taz and we walked into the clearing before stopping. I smiled at Ricky and he followed what I was doing and hooked his reins over the horn of the saddle before just sitting there as I turned so I was sitting side saddle and looked at him.
"Ok, so you know how the other day you asked if Edward and I were dating? Well I don't know anymore. I know Edward liked me and he has been really nice and been acting like we are dating but he just doesn't ask me out." I said and Ricky nodded as if he understood in inner workings of my mind.
"Bella, Edward likes you. He really likes you." Ricky said and I sighed before pushing my face into my hands.
I looked up at Ricky and saw him smile before I turned and looked behind me to see a horse and rider in the distance, moving quickly towards us.
I moved so I was sitting on Mystic properly and turned him so I could face the rider, watching until I saw Edward's bronze locks flying out in the dust.
"Edward? Where did you go?" I asked as he slowed slightly and I gasped and placed my hands over my mouth as I saw my guitar strapped to his back.
"I went back to get it for you. So you could play for Ricky and I." Edward said and I felt my eyes tear up slightly before I dismounted and walked over to Edward, taking my guitar and running my hand over the soft wood before looking up at Edward and smiling as he dismounted.
"Thank you so much Edward." I blushed slightly before kissing his cheek lightly. Edward smiled and I walked over to Mystic, swinging my guitar up onto my back before mounting Mystic and sitting side saddle.
"Yes!" Ricky grinned as I pulled my guitar round in front of me and strummed the strings.
"Ok Ricky, what shall I sing for you?" I asked and Ricky thought for a moment before grinning wildly.
"Sing the one you sung when mummy and daddy went to Italy and you were looking after me." Ricky said and I thought through the lyrics to the Taylor Swift song I had sung before playing the opening tune.
You little hands wrapped around my finger
And it's so quiet in the world tonight
Your eyelids flutter cause your dreaming
So I tuck you in, turn on your favourite night light
To you, everything's funny
You got nothing to regret
I'd give all I have honey
If you could stay like that
I smiled at Ricky and he giggled before I continued singing.
Oh darling don't you ever grow up
Don't you ever grow up
Just stay this little
Oh darling don't you ever grow up
Don't you ever grow up
It could stay this simple
I won't let nobody hurt you
Won't let no one break your heart
And no one will desert you
Just try to never grow up
Never grow up
You're in the car on the way to the movies
And your, mortified you moms dropping you off
At fourteen there's just so much you cant do
And you can't wait to move out someday and call your own shots
But don't make her drop you off around the block
Remember that she's getting older too
And don't loose the way you that you dance around in your pj's
Getting ready for school
Oh darling don't you ever grow up
Don't you ever grow up
Just stay this little
Oh darling don't you ever grow up
Don't you ever grow up
It could stay this simple
And no ones ever burned you
Nothings ever left you scared
And even though you want to
Just try to never grow up
Take pictures in your mind of your childhood room
Memorize what sounded like when your dad gets home
Remember the footsteps,
Remember the words said
And your little brothers favourite song
I just realized everything I have is someday gonna be gone
So here I am in my new apartment
In a big city they just dropped me off
It's so much colder than I thought it would be
So I tuck myself in and turn my night light on
Wish I'd never grown up
Wish I'd never grow up
Oh, I don't wana grow up
Wish I'd never grow up
I could still be little
Oh, I don't wana grow up
Wish I'd never grow up
It could still be simple
Oh darling don't you ever grow up
Don't you ever grow up
Just stay this little
Oh darling don you ever grow up
Don't you ever grow up
It could stay this simple
I won't let nobody hurt you
Won't let no one break your heart
And even though you want to
Just try to never grow up
Don't you ever grow up
Never grow up
Just never grow up
"That was amazing Bella." I heard Edward murmur and I turned and gave him a small smile before swinging my guitar onto my back.
"Lets ride for a bit." I smiled and Edward turned his horse and started leading us down a track.
