A/N: Okay, you asked for it! Darbella121 this one's for you and everyone can thank you for it….or not. She said it needed more action, so here it goes! Btw, thanks for reviewing, everyone! I guess I agree that the last chapter was kind of a filler so I tried to get this one out faster! Short AN, don't really have a lot to say except….TWO MONTHS! Two months 'till the twilight movie comes out! Yay! I remember when it was this close to the Breaking Dawn release…. Sigh. Anyhoo, enjoy this action filled chapter. No, your dirty minds, not that kind of action! Haha… not yet anyways.

Don't worry if your favorite twilight character hasn't been in the story, it's all been pretty much Bella, Edward, Ian, and the occasional call from Alice. I know Jazzy-Is-Mine wants Jasper in the story. He'll be in here soon, but you'll have to wait a bit.

Disclaimer: Everyone here, except Ian, but who really wants him, belongs to the amazing Stephenie Meyer who I absolutely love and admire and hope she will continue writing midnight sun!

"No" he whispered. "I'll always want you. Always and forever"

"Always and forever" I repeated.

It was 5 days since then. The Cullens would be home soon, we were so excited! We finished redecorating our room, making Alice proud. We also cleaned the house, Esme would like that. The past few days blew by so fast. It was Friday and we went down to a lake. It was amazing how fast we could swim. I had never been a good swimmer but Edward taught me, it helped that I didn't have to breathe. He even taught me how to float, I felt like a little kid taking swimming lessons, but it was fun. We got out and decided to race home, thinking our clothes would just dry in the process of running. Yes, we swam in clothes.

"Ready? Set…" I started running. "Go!" I yelled over my shoulder. I got home first. He was faster than me, but I was stronger, so my legs carried me a bit farther.

"Ha! Beat ya!" I laughed

" Bella, but it doesn't count cause I let you win" He smirked and I glared at him.

"You did not! I beat you fair and square, Edward Cullen!" I knew I was behaving like a five year old but I didn't care. I stuck out my tongue.

We were interrupted by the sound of someone clearing their throat. I immediately knew who it was.

Ian.

I tensed and turned slowly on my heel to look, or rather glare at him. How dare he show up around here!? Did he really think I would forgive him?

With my arms wrapped around Edward, I spoke. "What do you want?" I didn't bother being polite. He didn't deserve it, he could go to-

"How've you been?" Ugh! Was he seriously asking that!?

"Good, no thanks to you." I was curt. My mouth was set in a stubborn line.

"I'm sorry, Bella. I really am." His eyes tightened a bit as he looked right at me. What the hell was he doing?

"Stop" Edward spoke for the first time, his arms unconsciously tightened around me and pulled me closer. Then it hit me. He was trying to use his powers on me! I felt heat flow through me and block me from any intelligible thoughts.

"What. Do. You. Want?" I repeated.

"I wanted to apologize; I really hope you can forgive me, since we are going to be living togeth--"

I cut him off. I took one threatening step towards him. I prepared to attack him. It felt weird; I wasn't usually a violent person. I wanted to hit him so bad, I would have if Edward hadn't been holding me back. "Oh, no we're not! Don't you even think for one second that you're staying with us!" I screamed.

"But-"

"No! Go to Carlisle and ask him about it, but we are not living in the same house. Even if me and Edward have to move!"

"I-I didn't know you felt that way, Bella. I am sorry." He turned and left running. I was breathing heavily, what with all the screaming.

I leaned in to Edward. "It's okay, love. He's gone" he whispered. "Come on, sweetie. Let's go upstairs…" He said in an obvious attempt to cheer me up. I wondered, though, about why he left that sentenced unfinished.

The bed, silly! A voice in my head told me.

I gasped. He wouldn't. No. Edward said… he wouldn't. He's old fashioned! He wants to wait! My stomach started doing frightening little flips. I gulped.

"You look worried." He said with an amused expression on his face. "Let's go, beautiful."

"I'm not worried" I managed to make my mouth move and the words come out.

We walked hand in hand upstairs. "Why are you so nervous? You're practically jumping up and down" He laughed. I didn't. I realized I just misinterpreted what he said. I sighed.

"What's wrong?" He, being Edward, noticed I sighed and instantly worried. God, how I love him.

"It's nothing" I whispered. "It's not important anymore"

We got to our room and lay on the bed, unfortunately doing nothing but cuddling.

"Please tell me, Bella" he pleaded. "You wouldn't believe how frustrating it is to not be able to hear your thoughts." He groaned in frustration.

"Really. It's nothing, Edward. I just thought… never mind" I grimaced.

"Bella" He pouted. It was unbelievably cute. I laughed and slapped his arm playfully.

I took a deep breath. "I just thought…well, when you said to go upstairs….and then you left the sentence open like that, I just thought…I-" I sighed.

"Oh, Bella. You know I want you, too" He whispered.

"Do you?"

"Of course I do, you silly beautiful, oversensitive girl." He chuckled. "You can't imagine how hard it is to deny you what you want…"

"Then don't!" I begged. I took three deep calming breaths. "I'm sorry, I just want to be with you in every single way possible" I confessed.

"I know, love, I know. I love you. Which brings us back to something I wanted to give you…" He paused. "Now, I know you're only seventeen, Bella." Where was this going? He took my hands. "What would you say to a promise ring?" I gasped and immediately stopped breathing.

"A what?" my voice shook

"A promise ring." He whispered, looking down at our hand entwined,

I couldn't bring myself to breathe. I couldn't bring myself to do anything.

"What would I be promising?" I knew most people knew about promise rings and even had some, but I was new at this love thing, I didn't know anything.

"Marry me someday." He sounded sad, as if he thought I would ever doubt how I felt about him.

"Yes" I whispered. His head snapped up.

"What?"

"Yes. A thousand times yes."

He wrapped his long arms around me and pulled me into a hug and then began covering me with a thousand kisses.

"Do you want to see it?" He was obviously excited.

"You already have one?" Shock coloring my tone.

"Yup" He said not sounding one bit ashamed. "Would you like to see it?"

"Yes" I smiled flashing my teeth.

He went to his underwear drawer and pulled out a small black satin box. He placed it on my knee, balancing it. I took my time opening it. It's a promise ring, not an engagement ring, I tried calming myself down but failed.

I opened the box in one swift movement. It was beautiful. It was silver and had three diamonds, the one in the middle, slightly bigger. On the inside of the ring, I saw writing. Love you always.

"It's beautiful" I whispered.

Edward took the ring from me and took my left hand. He then placed the ring where it would stay forever.

We sat on his bed and talked for hours.

:):):):):)

"What time is it?" he asked

"8:25" I whispered. "Why do you ask?" I wondered

"We have to go pick up the rest of the family at 11"

"I should go to the gas station. It's a long drive to the airport. Would you like to come?"

"Yeah, let's go." We went downstairs and as I opened the front door, the phone rang. I skipped to it and answered it.
"Hello?"

"BELLA!"

"ALICE!" I said with mock excitement

"Bella, I think Edward's rubbing off on you!" She said in teasingly.

"Actually, Alice, we were just going out, do you mind-" Edward waved his arms to get my attention.

It's fine. I'll be back in a second he mouthed. I kissed him goodbye and he left.

"Never mind, so how was prom?"

"It was so much fun! You have to go next time!"

"Hey, Alice? Do you mind calling me on Edward's cell phone? I want to go out for a walk"

"Sure thing, Bells! One sec"

I took Edward's phone and quickly wrote a note for Edward in case he came back before I did.

I started down the trail Edward and I had gone on and my phone rang.
"Hey Alice! Took you long enough! Just kidding!"

"Jeez Bella, you-"

Oh god. I knew that silence, from Edward's descriptions. She was having a vision.

"What's wrong Alice?"

"Bella…" she whispered. "BELLA RUN!" The phone went dead and I heard a growl from behind me.

I saw Ian looking like pissed about 50 yards away, half hiding behind a tree.
