A/N: I have been so busy this week, and it's my last week before I go back to work and school. (grrr). Anyway, I'm sorry this is late, but I have been trying to read Breaking Dawn as well. (No, Amber, I'm not finished yet. I am up to chapter 29 now). My goal is to finish it up this weekend, because if I don't I won't have time to work on this story once school starts Monday.
I have closed the poll for Edward and Bella's relationship reconciliation. I hope you all had the time to vote. Thanks to all of you who participated.
Anyway, it's time to get on with the show.
DISCLAIMER: You know the drill, I'm not her.

April 2
Dear God! Why me? What did I do to deserve this torture? Here I was, just dreaming on my emerald-eyed God. We were walking on a sandy beach, our fingers intertwined. We turned towards one another and our lips were like magnets, being pulled closer and closer together. Just before our lips met, I could feel someone jump beside me and nudge me in my ribs.
I had opened my eyes to find my "supposed" best friend bouncing on the bed beside me. "Let's go, Bella. We're going to get you ready for a fun-filled day. And I KNOW you want to look good for my brother." She pulled me out of bed, threw clothes at me, and fixed my hair and makeup. Apparently, I'm not able to do these things on my own. Then, she strapped some modest wedge sandals on my feet and pulled out the door and down to breakfast.
So here I was, sitting in front of a plate of food. I was nervous beside my best friend, and my stomach didn't want to eat. I picked at the food, but didn't taste anything. My thoughts and heart were racing. The entire time at breakfast, and it was probably only thirty minutes, seemed to drag on as my nerves got the best of me. Sooner than I expected, my parents had handed us our tickets for the parks, and explained what we would be doing. Thankfully, our parents had all decided to let us have some freedom. We had to make sure our cell phones were with us and on in case there was an emergency.
We got into our rental cars and, once again, Edward was sitting beside me. It didn't take us long to get to the park from our hotel. Once we were parked, we made our way to the ferry. Jasper, Alice, Emmett, Rose, Edward, and I all made our way to the top deck. Our parents had stayed below as me made our way across the lagoon. I stood against the railing with Alice and Rose on either side of me. My brother and Jasper wrapped their arms around their girlfriends' waist. I felt slightly left out until I suddenly found myself wrapped up in Edward's two strong arms. I sighed and leaned back into his chest. I could feel my heart ache slightly when I thought of how this felt perfect, but wasn't reality.
I smiled as I watched Cinderella's castle grow larger as we neared the gates. It didn't take as long as I thought it would to get inside the park, and soon we were all deciding where we were going. The parents told us where to meet them in four hours for lunch, and left us standing on Main Street. Because of my shoulder, I wouldn't be able to ride some of the more "exciting" rides, so I watched Alice and Rose being led towards Space Mountain by Jasper and Emmett.
"You know, if you want to ride Space Mountain, I can always wait by the exit. I don't want to ruin your whole day Edward." I tried to sound enthusiastic about this plan, but I could never lie to Edward.
"Bella, you won't ruin my whole day. Besides, I get to spend the entire day with you, how can that be bad?" He smiled at me and took my hand as we began walking down Main Street.
"Um… I… hmmm…" Wow, Bella. Way to amaze him with your extensive vocabulary and wit.
"Let's go on a few rides that won't bother your shoulder. I hope you don't mind if I pick the first one."
I think I would let him pick anything when he smiled at me and held my hand like just now. I couldn't speak eloquently, so I just nodded and smiled back at my best friend. He really was too good for me, but I didn't stop my heart from hoping, even if it was pointless.
We walked for a few more minutes until we were standing in front of the Pirates of the Caribbean ride. I had to smile up at Edward. It was a perfect ride for my injury and we could have fun on it as well. The line moved quickly and I found myself laughing with Edward as we joked and talked. Soon we were in the darkened room getting on a boat. We sat beside each other, obviously, and soon the ride was underway. After a few seconds, I realized Edward had placed his arm on the seat back behind me. I smiled and leaned into his body. We rode the dark ride quietly, and enjoyed each other's company.
After the ride was over, we went into Peter Pan's flight. There we had our own "car" and again rode in the dark ride. As the ride was starting, I could feel an electric current flowing through every square inch of my body. This current seemed to stem from wherever Edward would touch me, sending sparks and shivers down my spine. I place my hands in my lap and tried to keep to myself, so I didn't end up doing anything embarrassing. I glanced over at Edward and noticed that he too had his hands in his lap as he sat beside me. I would have giggled if it had been anyone else but the two of us.
About halfway through the ride I could feel every inch of my skin tingle. I don't know what came over me, but I reached over and touched Edward's cheek. He practically jumped out of the car. I pulled back, embarrassed, and tried to return my hands to their previous position. I didn't get the opportunity, because Edward had recovered after his surprise, and cupped my cheeks with his hands. Like my dream from last night I saw him moving closer to me. Our lips were getting closer and I licked my upper lip in a nervous reaction.
Our lips met as I closed my eyes and I felt that electric current speed up to a maddening pace. Edward was kissing me. Edward was kissing me. We kissed for the remainder of the ride, and only pulled away because we needed to exit the ride to allow other passengers a chance to ride. After that ride, we held hands or wrapped our arms around each other's body. We rode a few more rides, but had to walk to meet our parents and friends for lunch. I don't remember much about what happened the rest of the day. All I remember was that Edward and I were together, and if only for this week, we were back together as a couple.
A/N: So I took into consideration that all of you wanted Edward and Bella to get back together in May. And I decided that I couldn't wait that long. So, because all of you are awesome (and because I'm totally impatient) I hope you don't mind me putting them back together now. I know this is short, and i did consider writing this from Edward's point of view, but decided that I would wait to write his POV for another even on April 2. I hope you'll all forgive me.
Review please and let me know what you think.
