Chapter 7 The 3rd Day of Bliss (Bella's POV)
I was walking with Edward though the Four Seasons. We were holding hands and laughing. He looked at me with his insanely gorgeous green eyes and kissed me. Not a good boy kiss but a naughty boy kiss.
His lips were soft against mine at first and then he became more engrossed. He licked my lower lip and his tongue pushed into my mouth searching for mine. We both pushed our bodies closer to each other. I had wrapped my legs around his waist and he held me up by holding on to my thighs. He pushed me up against a wall near the elevator. People were all around us, staring, but I didn't care. I wanted him so badly right now. I had to have him.
Irina walked up behind him whining.
"Edward, you don't want that plain old thing, you want me don't you."
Edward turned around and looked at her and growled.
"Bella is the only thing I want!"
He turned to me looked at my face; he studied my eyes then my lips.
"Bella, I need you, I want you, NOW!"
Like I could really turn him down. Thank you, God!!!
"Yes, Edward, now"
All of a sudden I heard some strange music and thought. What is that, turn it down. I fluttered my eyes and the sun was bright, too bright. Ugh, I had only been dreaming.
I grabbed my pillow and held it over my face and began kicking my legs. I didn't want to wake up. I wanted to finish my dream! Then I heard the music again. It was my damn phone. I didn't even look at the caller ID, I knew who it was.
"Damn It Alice I was having the best dream, and you, you…"
Alice laughed "Don't you have someone to meet today Bella?" I looked at my alarm clock.
Crap, I was going to be late to meet Edward.
'Now say Thank You, and I Love you Alice" She is such a pest, but I do love her.
"Thank You ALICE and I do Love you!" She laughed, "I know, see you later babe"
She hung up and I quickly got ready. Tank top, khaki shorts and my Grecian sandals. I quickly pulled my hair into a ponytail and ran out of the door.
When I arrived at the hotel I asked a man who was standing by the elevator to ring Edwards room.
"Edward who Ma'am. There are many Edwards staying here."
I felt like an idiot, I never bothered to find out his last name.
"Umm, well, funny story, I didn't find actually find out his last name, but he's a little taller than 6 ft., he has the most incredible green eyes, and bronze hair that is well perfect. Oh and ……"
"So I have the most incredible green eyes huh."
I felt his strong arms wrap around me and I looked at the man behind the front desk and he was smiling.
"I don't think I need to find him Ma'am, I think he found you."
I turned red, bright red. Why did I make a habit out of embarrassing myself?
Then I asked without turning around "So how much did you hear?"
He laughed, "All of it, I could have stopped you but I just liked hearing you say it."
I turned around and looked at him. He looked gorgeous, even better than yesterday.
"You know I do feel kind of silly, of all of the things that we talked about, I didn't ask your last name."
He pulled away from me and held out his hand "Edward Anthony Masen Cullen, so pleased to make your acquaintance Ms...?"
I laughed and took his cue. I curtsied and took his hand "Isabella Marie Swan Kind sir"
He kissed my hand. "Very well then Ms. Isabella Swan, shall we proceed with today's scheduled activities?"
I laughed and smiled "Yes, kind sir, please let us be on our merry way"
We both laughed as we walked out of the hotel and got into a cab.
"So what may I ask are the plans for today Ms. Swan?" Edward asked.
"I was thinking about taking you to the Shedd Aquarium, and the Adler Planetarium."
I looked for his approval and he just smiled.
"Sounds like a great plan." He looked at me and his face turned serious momentarily.
"Is everything okay Edward?" He smiled and looked out of the window.
"I wish I didn't have plans for tomorrow, so that we could spend the day together."
I remembered my graduation ceremony. He made me forget everything when he was around.
" I know, but its okay I have something planned too, you know my graduation from College, the beginning of my grown up life, no big deal"
He quickly turned around and smiled.
"Wait you are graduating from UIC right."
I looked at him suspiciously "Yes, why?"
"This is great Bella, I am also going to be at the UIC graduation tomorrow to meet Jasper's girlfriend and her best friend and some other girl. Don't you see Bella, I will get to be there, I will get to see you graduate!"
I could feel the smile spread across my face and then I screamed.
"Edward that is great, I mean, since I met you I've wanted you to come."
This is a wonderful development. Edward grabbed me and hugged me.
"I wouldn't want to miss it for anything Bella, for anything."
He looked into my eyes and I searched his. My mind was racing. How could I feel so strongly for a man that I just met? What are these feelings?
Suddenly his lips met mine and he kissed me. His lips were so soft and warm, and then he stopped. I opened my eyes and looked at him and then I just reacted. I grabbed him by his hair and pulled his face to mine. I kissed him, and hard. There was so much passion in my kiss; I wanted it to tell him how much I wanted him. Then he kissed me back with the intensity and passion as my own.
We pulled apart and were gasping for air.
"Aquarium" the cab driver said and we looked at each other and broke out into laughter.
I went to pay the driver and Edward stopped me. I stepped out of the cab and Edward just stared at me.
"What" I asked and Edward just laughed.
"You are full of surprises Isabella Swan" and with that I grabbed his hand and we entered the Aquarium.
(Edward POV)
The day was spectacular. Bella was so great.
She was bending down talking to some children that were on a field trip and the children were laughing. She would be a great teacher. As I watched her interact with the children my heart just opened up.
One of the little girls was upset that she couldn't see the penguins, so Bella talked to the teacher and picked the girl up so that she could see.
She was so compassionate and loving, funny, smart, and she was beyond beautiful. She was like a breath of fresh air.
I could not wrap my head around the fact that this woman had such a hold on me. She made me feel like I was missing something before I met her. As if some invisible hole had been filled within me.
She walked back towards me and apologized.
"Bella, don't apologize to me, that was great, you are great, a lot of people don't have patience for children, and I admire you for it. Your going to be a great teacher you know."
Bella blushed, "Well thanks Dr. Cullen" I appreciate that, it means a lot coming from you."
She wrapped her arms around my waist and hugged me. I grabbed her closer to me and kissed the top of her head. She smelled great and I never wanted to forget this smell.
Just then my stomach grumbled.
She laughed "Hungry are we, well then come on, only Chicago's finest for you,"
She led me outside and sat me down on the grass by the side of the Aquarium.
"Wait here I will be right back."
"Fine, just leave me abandoned here and all alone"
She laughed and walked away. As I waited I looked at the lake. It was a beautiful sight. The lawn was covered with families and couples just having a good time. The warm wind felt good on my face.
She quickly arrived with an armload of food and drinks.
"One Chicago Dog for you with chips and a pop."
I looked at the hot dog, "I don't know Bella, I don't often…."
She laughed, "Don't knock it till you try it Doc"
I bit into the hot dog and chewed"
"Well?"
"This is good Bella, REALLY good"
"Good now eat the rest so we can walk over to the Planetarium."
I watched the wind as it whipped Bella's ponytail around. Her hair kept getting blown into her mouth as she was trying to eat and she would laugh.
She finally decided to place her hair up into a bun and she was stunning. A couple tendrils of hair fell around her face.
To say she was beautiful would be an under statement. She was simply breathtaking.
When we finished we walked to the Planetarium. We walked around and decided to see the Night Sky show. It was beautiful. But still nothing next to the beauty that was sitting next to me.
By the time we got out of the Planetarium it was dusk. I didn't want to leave her.
"Wow, it's so late, where did the day go?"
Just then Bella's cell phone rang. "Hey Rose what's up? Yes I am busy, why what's wrong. Can't that wait till tomorrow? Fine, I will be home in a little while."
She hung up the phone and looked at me.
"It seems like my best friend and roommate cant do anything on their own. I need to head home."
I felt bad, I didn't want her to leave, but I didn't want to scare her off either. Should I tell her how I feel?
"To be honest, I don't want you to go, but lets look at the bright side, I get to see you walk across the stage tomorrow and then we will have nothing but time."
She smiled and hugged me again.
"You will come the party afterwards too right?" She looked at me as if she was anxious for my answer.
"Of course I will Bella"
We took a cab back to the hotel.
I kissed her again before she left. I walked slowly back to my room and opened the door. As soon as I walked in I saw Jasper and Emmett fighting on the couch.
"Give me the remote J, I am tired of watching the damn History Channel. UFC is on and you are making me miss it with this all of this boring shit."
I laughed and they looked up.
"You know the rooms all have their own TV's guys."
Emmett looked up and smiled.
"That's right Lover boy, Thanks. Oh and by the way I don't think that I will be needing a hook-up for Sunday, I got it covered."
He got up and ran to his room, he must have jumped on the bed because the whole floor shook.
"So how was your day Edward?" Jasper looked at me and was smiling.
I sighed, "It was great, as usual, I just can't get enough of her. I hate when we have to part. The thing is I know that we are leaving on Monday, and I don't want to leave her. I mean I know she is planning on moving somewhere in the Northwest, but I don't want to be apart from her at all. You probably think I am crazy for feeling this way already, but I do, I really do."
Jasper laughed and smiled at me.
"Its not crazy man, I felt the same way about Alice too you know, from the moment I met her I knew." She is my sunrise and my sunset and everything in between. But have faith my man, things always have a way of working out, trust me."
And with that he walked into his room.
I layed down on my bed and pulled out my phone. There was a text message on it.
I miss you already!!
B ;)
I sent a message back.
Tomorrow is not soon enough.
E :(
(Bella POV)
He was right tomorrow was not soon enough. The girls called me back for more shopping. They told me it would be worth it tomorrow. Whatever, I just wanted more time with Edward.
I went to bed early because I knew I had to get up early, and because I was so mad at Alice and Rosalie.
(Rose POV)
I knew Bella was mad, but we had to stick with the plan. To be honest I didn't want to end the day either.
When we met Jasper for breakfast I never thought for a second that I would meet my Mr. Right.
Emmett was Jaspers and Edward's brother, older brother, and he was wonderful.
He lived in Seattle with his brothers and owned his own construction company. He was big, very big and I when I had accidentally run into him, it was like hitting a brick wall.
"Sorry Ma'am, I tried to move but you were coming so quickly I didn't have time. Are you all right?
"Well you better…"I was going to say he'd better be sorry but when I looked up to look at the idiot that had bumped into me and I was frozen and completely lost for words.
He had dark curly hair and the prettiest blue eyes and then he smiled at me and had the cutest dimples. He was gorgeous, like a god."
He laughed, "I better what? I would like to apologize, but honestly If I had moved than I wouldn't have bumped into the most beautiful woman I have ever seen."
Oh no! he is smooth too.
"I stood up and smoothed out my skirt.
"Well apology accepted and if you don't mind I need to get to my table."
I walked to the table where Alice was sitting and got into the booth. Alice looked at me and smiled.
"Are you okay Rosalie, you have this silly grin on your face and.."
"Alice, here you are."
Alice turned quickly and smiled. "Jasper!" She jumped up and gave him a hug.
"I'm so happy to see you" She started kissing him and didn't stop until someone cleared his throat behind him.
"Sorry Em, Alice this is my brother Emmett."
"Well, its about time little lady" He did a pretty good John Wayne impression
Then he walked from behind the wall and my jaw dropped. It was the wall that I had bumped into. Emmett hugged Alice and he winked at me.
"So, Alice who is your beautiful friend." Alice then smiled and answered.
"Emmett this is Rosalie." He smiled and sat next to me.
"So nice to run into you again Rosalie."
He moved right next to me in the booth. What could I say, for the first time in a long time, I had butterflies in my stomach. For the first time in my life I was lost for words.
Emmett and I talked about everything. We found out we had a lot in common. Cars, Video Games, Music, TV Shows, Music, you name we like most of the same things.
"I got it!" Emmett suddenly yelled.
"You've got what?" I was very confused.
"I knew I saw you somewhere before. You did one of those Mom I don't feel so fresh commercials!"
Of all of the things that I had done, he had to remember that one.
"Yep, that's me. Thanks for the reminder of some the work I would like to forget."
He laughed. "Are you kidding you were hot in that commercial. Every time I saw it I would stop what I was doing and just stare at the television."
Jasper laughed. "I can vouch for that. He drove us crazy!"
Then we all laughed.
"Wow Rosalie, you are my dream come true."
Then I blushed. Yes mark it down in history. Rosalie Hale blushed.
Emmett put his arm around my shoulders.
"I am so glad I met you today Rosalie."
We spent the rest of the day setting up for Bella's party and making all of the arrangements. I knew that Charlie and Renee were both due in on early flights so we needed to head home early.
Emmett was pretty disappointed about having to leave and so was I.
As Jasper and Alice were saying their goodbyes, i.e. sucking face, Emmett looked at me and laughed. Then he shrugged his shoulders.
"When in Rome" he swooped me up into his arms and I pretended to fight him off.
Then he looked me in the eye and said. "I have been wanting to do this all day."
He softly grazed his lips across mine and I shuddered. He looked at me, I guess for signs of disgust, but I just smiled and kissed him back.
His eyes glazed over and he put me down and smiled. No, not just smiled it started off as a smirk and slowly spread from cheek to cheek to form a huge sheepish grin.
I giggled and Jasper grabbed him by his arm to lead him back to the car.
"Come on Romeo, we've got to go now"
He looked at me and said, "A Rose by any other name would not smell so sweet"
Then I laughed and Alice came over to me and elbowed me in the rib.
"Looks like all of the Cullen boys have all of us wrapped around their little fingers" I looked at her and laughed
" I don't know about little, did you see Emmett's hands, and you know what they say" Alice laughed " Ha Ha T.M.I. Rosalie, T.M.I."
Being with Emmett all day was quite a different experience for me. He wasn't scared off by my career or my looks like most men were. He just accepted me for me, and that was all very new to me but I liked it.
