That night we went back to our castle. We went off to our rooms and went to bed. Then I remembered as I laid in bed the letter I had gotten from Edward. I jumped out of my sheets and got up. I grabbed the note and opened it.

"Dear Bella,

I am sorry for not speaking with you, please forgive me. I only wanted to keep you safe from your father so I could see you again. If I came back to soon he would suspect something about us. I still love you, with all my heart. I miss you as well. Every day I think of your smile, your laugh, everything about you, especially your beautiful brown eyes. I'm also terribly sorry for not being there tonight, but I couldn't risk your father hiding you away from me, or seeing you in the arms of someone else. To prove how sorry I am to you, go out to your garden at midnight.

With all my heart,

Edward"

The letter was touching to me; it brought tears to my eyes. I remembered what my uncle told me, once when I was younger.

"True love happens in the blink of an eye, it also disappears just as fast if you let it go. It happens once in a lifetime and can never happen the same way twice."

I knew I had to go see him. Even though he left me I still loved him. Being in his arms made me feel same, his smile seemed like it could stop time. Everything seemed perfect.

I went to my closet and took out a scarlet red dress. It was strapless and had diamonds on the top, with a skirt that flowed outwards to the floor. One I believed belonged in my fairytale.

I snuck out of the house, very quietly. I went out the garden and made my way through the maze and sat on the marble bench that was in front of the fountain. Then I saw him walking towards me. The moonlight reflected off of him and he looked like the prince he was. I ran into his waiting arms. His arms wrapped around my back, mine wrapped around his back holding him tightly to me. He rested his chin on my head that rested on his chest. We rocked from side to side just holding each other, not wanting to let go.

"If you keep holding on to me were going to be permanently stuck together." He said softly. I giggled. "Shh. We don't want people hearing us or we may never get to see each other again if they catch us.

I closed my eyes and wanted to stay like that forever. It seemed to be just Edward and me.

"Why don't we go for a ride?" He asked. I nodded. He took my hand and led me out of the garden towards a white horse. I stopped for a moment and he turned to look at me. "Are you alright?"

"Yes, it's just that I love fairytale and it always ends with the prince taking his princess off into the sunset on a white horse." I told him.

"Well I'm not taking you away but I could be your prince, and you will be my princess." He said.

We rode on the horse for hours and I didn't want it to end, then Edward took me back to my house.

"Goodnight Bella, I'm sorry but I have to leave. And I don't want you in trouble." He told me as he got off his horse.

"Alright I understand." Tears were coming to my eyes, and he took me off the horse.

"Please don't cry. I promise I will come back for you, I would never leave you." He took my face in both of his hands and wiped my tears away with his thumbs. He looked me in the eyes and I knew he was telling the truth.

"I know, but it's the thought of you leaving that makes me sad. I'm going to miss you so much." Tears still came, and I threw myself into his chest. He held me as I cried.

"It's going to be okay. I'll come back, you don't need to cry." He pulled me back and looked in my eyes. "I'm going to miss you too, and I want you to know that I love you."

"I love you too." I told him. Then he gently pressed his lips to mine and I put my arms around his neck. We then pulled away both gasping for breath.

"I'll see you soon. I promise." Then he left and I walked into the house.

"Bella, wake up honey. It's almost noon." My mom said quietly while shaking my shoulders a bit.

"Sorry mom. I didn't mean to sleep in so long." I told her.

"It's alright. You just need to get up now." She told me in a quiet voice.

I got up and got ready for the day. I was just planning on going outside and being me. Lying in the grass looking at the clouds go by.

Things weren't the same as before, Edward would come every Friday night to the garden and I would go to see him. Then he would take me home and tell 'goodnight' along with 'I miss you' and 'I love you'. I was in love with my prince charming. But this night was different.

"Bella I need to ask you something." He asked me softly as we were cuddling in the grass. I was wearing my red dress again; I liked it for these kinds of nights. It would sparkle along with the stars.

"Okay, ask me."

"Does your father know about your love for me?" He asked.

"No. Why would you ask?" I was curious.

"Because I got a threatening letter a few days ago, and it was from you father." I sat up and stared at him.

"What? Why would he do that?" I asked.

"I don't know but here." He handed me the letter. And I opened it, and read it.

"Dear Edward Cullen,

Stay away from my daughter, it would be better for you, your family, Bella, as well as my own family. She doesn't love you, nor will she ever. I think it would be best if you leave her alone before you hurt her. If you don't I will make sure your life is miserable, and you will never see her again.

Charlie Swan"

I gaped at the letter. I could not believe my father would do this. Tears were coming to my eyes, and they were rolling down my cheeks.

"Bella, it's alright. I don't believe any of it." He took me in his arms and whispered in my ear. He rocked me back and forth until my tears almost stopped.

"How could he do this? I thought he would be glad that I fell in love. I guess I was wrong, and he doesn't even know your dad's side of the story. And I love you Edward, I really do." I told him.

"I know you love me, and I love you too. I guess he can't stand what happened in the past that he doesn't want the same thing happening to you. But I will never let that happen again, I promise." He told me.

"I know."

Then he took me back home, just before he was going to leave I stopped him.

"Wait, Edward." He stopped. "Will you stay?"

"Of course I will stay, and only for you. " He said to me.

Then in the morning I woke up on the bed. Edward was kneeling on the floor with his head on his arms, he was asleep. I crawled to him and started to play with his hair. Then he lifted his head and I smiled at him. He smiled back, and rested his head on his arms once more. He was still looking at me his eyes staring into mine. Then he lifted his head and kissed my lips. Then my dad burst through the door, and I jumped back and so did Edward. He was now almost lying on the floor, and I was sitting up on the bed.

"Dad this isn't what it looks like." I told him, putting my hands out in front of me. He was furious. Then I saw that he was starting to go towards Edward. I got up off the bed and ran to stop my dad. Edward also stood up. "Dad please stop." He pushed me to the floor.

"I told you to stay away from her, and what do you do? You break into my house, into her room!" he was angry. Then I ran between him and Edward.

"No, dad, stop. I wanted Edward here. He came to see me last night, we met in the courtyard. It was getting late so I told him he could stay for the night. He slept on the floor, and never in my bed. I love him." I told him. I saw my uncle smiling, but my dad was furious. He pushed me out of the way; I hit the corner of my bed with my hip. Then I fell to the floor and pain was going through my hand. I cried out in pain. Then my mother and uncle ran to me to see what was wrong.

"Charlie, stop! We need to take her to the Cullen's she's badly hurt." My uncle said as he grabbed my dad and stopped him. Then they picked me up and my mother handed me to Edward, I was surprised by this. Then he carried me to the carriage, and my mother got in with us. My father took his own horse, while my uncle took Edward's. And we rode off to the Cullen's castle.
