When I woke up the next morning the spot next to me was empty but for a small note laid on the pillow where my angel's head once been. Meet me downstairs. I jumped out of the bed and ran to the connecting bathroom to freshen up.

I found a brush lying on the sink counter and ran it quickly through my hair, and straightened out my shirt before I rushed to the stairs only tripping two times. It wasn't until I had rounded the corner that I remembered that no one besides Edward was here, and I came to a quick halt, trying to hide behind the wall.

"It's alright Bella, we already know." I heard Carlisle's voice coming from the adjoining kitchen. I walked through the doorway, taking a seat next to Edward on the bar stools at the center island, where an array of breakfast foods laid arranged.

I glared in the direction of Edward who kept his eyes down while picking at the muffin that sat in front of him. "He didn't tell us Bella, Charlie called last night and then Edward's odd behavior and well we put two and two together."

"Look, I talked to Edward last night and he helped me to put things in focus…." I grabbed Edward's hand that had fallen onto his lap, and he glanced over to me. I gave him a reassuring smile which he returned but the smile didn't reach his eyes. "I didn't mean to intrude on your family. I will just go grab my bag and be on my way."

"Actually Bella, dear, we wanted to talk to about something first." Esme said as she came around to the other side of the counter to face both Edward and I. "Well you both know that the move is coming up soon, and we would like to discuss with the two of you some ground rules."

"Ground rules?" Edward asked looking up to the faces of his parents with a puzzled look.

"Yes, ground rules. Phone calls, email, text messaging, or even carrier pigeons are all free for all, but visitation will only be granted during school breaks and when the parents allow it. Understood?" Carlisle answered. This was something that should be comfort, knowing that our future had been discussed but it just made my heart ache.

It made the move all that more real. I mean in the back of my mind I had always known that the move was approaching but I had always tried to forget it, because maybe if I forgot about it then it wouldn't happen.

"Understood." Edward said meekly, I guess he felt the same way that I did. "Can we go upstairs now? I would like to talk to Bella before she has to head home." Carlisle and Esme both nodded and Edward led me up the large spiral staircase.

We didn't speak; we just sat on his bed in each other's arms. Edward was stroking my hair as my head laid on his chest. After awhile I felt like something needed to be said so I said the only thing that filled my mind at that moment.

"I love you Edward, never forget that." His arm tightened around my waist as his lips crashed onto the top of my head, and I felt his chest begin to shake. I sat up to see me dear Edward's face tear stained, his eyes tightly shut.

I ran my finger across his cheeks, wiping away his tears but this only triggered my own. We must have looked like a site, tear stained teenagers holding each other tightly as if afraid to let go for the other would disappear. Once we had both settled, Edward sat us up and took my hands in his own.

His eyes bored into my soul, capturing my heart and making a shutter run through my body. It was amazing the effect that he still had on me, even after all this time.

"Bella, I am not saying now but it would help to settle my nerves when I leave. Because I can't lose you, and I mean that's not the only reason that I ask this. I love you Bella, you are my world….."

"Edward, what's wrong? You know that you can tell me anything." I leaned my forehead against his and freed one of my hands, resting it on his cheek.

"I know I should do this better, but I need something that will ensure me that you will always be mine…..Isabella will you marry me?"
