Another short chapter but enough happens in this entry so I didn't really want to make it any longer. Review Please : )

I do not own any of the Twilight characters.


I walked back into my room all the color had drowned from my face and one look in the bathroom mirror I could see that the rims of my eyes were all red from crying the whole walk back. I had ignored everyone when first coming in but now I noticed both Rosalie and Alice standing behind me in the bathroom.

"Bella what's wrong?" Rosalie asked worried. I clutched on to the side of the sink and bent my head

"I really hurt him didn't I?" my voice asked with a croak. They both seemed baffled by my question but Alice caught on quick enough to answer

"Oh Bella you didn't hurt him" she said grabbing onto my hand and prying it away from the sink.

"Yes I did, I can see it now" I nodded my head trying to hold back the fresh tears. I hadn't meant to hurt him like I did, I thought we were both doing the right thing by staying friends but today when I saw him playing I saw that he was closing down inside, that he was crushed. Alice put both hands on my shoulder spinning me around to face the two of them

"Bella listen to me. Don't blame yourself for this; you guys were both just doing what was right at the time. How were you supposed to know how it was affecting him?" I looked into her wide eyes, my own eyes watering.

"I feel so stupid for not seeing it until now and to bring Jacob into all of this!" I cried out. Rosalie frowned and shook her head

"You can always change your mind Bella. Jacob will understand, you just really need to talk to Edward"

"And tell him what Rosalie?" I snapped. She didn't take my tone of voice personally and smiled sadly

"That you're still in love with him"

I sighed burying my face into my hands. She was right, I was an idiot to ever try and get over him by seeing Jacob. Edward was always there for me but I turned to Jacob when it got to be too much. I had pushed him away and right into the waiting arms of Tanya.

When I thought that Edward didn't love me back anymore I had tried to occupy myself with someone as innocent as Jacob and I was a fool to even jump to the conclusion that Edward didn't like me anymore in the first place. The answer to all my problems where right in front of me the whole time.

I should have seen it in his eyes whenever he looked at me, I should have seen the love that was behind them, the love for me. He was angry towards Jacob for messing up whatever plans he had for me, for us.

That's why he was being so rude to him the other night. Because he was jealous just like I was jealous of Tanya. It was all making sense now, the tension behind all his words and movements. The pained and hurt expressions he gave me whenever I tried to brush away our past. It was painfully obvious that he loved me more then he let on, more than a friend, more than anything else in this world and I loved him too, it was just a matter of setting things right.

"Feel better?" Alice asked as I picked up my face from my hands.

I smiled and nodded as I wiped away the tears. They followed me back out of the bathroom and I saw that Edward still hadn't arrived which was kind of a good thing because I needed to get my head straight. Emmett and Jasper were messing around with Alice's radio bickering over what station to play.

I sat down on my bed trying to act like everything was all right as I patiently waited for Edward to arrive but he never did. Two hours passed and he never showed up, my heart was slowly sinking and breaking. He didn't want to see me but I so badly wanted to see him.

Alice and Rosalie kept shooting me concerned looks but I would shrug them off with a smile. Eventually I had; had enough and I walked out of the room noticing everyone's encouraging smiles; obviously Emmett and Jasper had been filled in some time during the afternoon.

I walked down Edward's dorm room hallway with all the determination I could muster. I had to set things right, I had to let him know how I felt and then we could take it from there.

I knocked on Edward's door a few times very slowly. Stepping back when the door finally opened revealing Edward just as handsome as ever.

"Bella" he said surprised "I was just about to go up there and-"

"I heard you playing" I cut him off. He sighed, a frown setting on his lips

"You did?" he asked quietly not meeting my eyes any more.

"Yes and I feel horrible Edward, If I had known what this was doing to you…" I trailed off getting a little annoyed that he wasn't even looking at me so I brought my hand up under his chin and lifted his face so he would look at me. His eyes were smoldering mine, they were filled with sadness and I couldn't take seeing him like that anymore especially when I was the cause of it.

"…I would have done this" I whispered before I pulled his lips to mine.

As he kissed me back I wrapped my arms around his neck. All the blood went rushing to my lips and I kissed him as passionately as I could. I was letting go of all the months of built up temptation, all the months I fought the urge to do exactly what we were doing now.

Our friendship was now completely tossed out the window and I was praying that we could go back to the way we used to be. He put one hand on the back of my head, getting his fingers all tangled up in my hair. His other hand placed itself on my cheek and I melted under his warm touch.

My heart was beating out of control and I felt week in the knees as his tongue slipped between my lips. I wanted nothing more than to be his again, to give him all of me and everything else I had.

I could feel the tears roll down my cheeks as the kiss deepened. But they weren't sad tears anymore they were ones of joy. Finally he pulled away, that kiss had left us both out of breath and I grew more and more lightheaded. But I held back the feeling of wanting to pass out and leaned into Edward's hand which was still pressed up against my cheek, his fingertips wet from my tears. I smiled up at him and he smiled warmly back. He looked just as happy as I was and I could tell that he had been waiting for this moment for as long as I had.

"I love you" he murmured making my stomach flip and my heart overreact even more.

I had butterflies the size of walnuts flying around inside of me and I had missed this feeling so much, a feeling that only Edward could give me, I didn't want to lose it again.

I pulled his face down once more giving him more of what he wanted. He was just as eager and willing as I was when he started to lead us both back into his bedroom without breaking the kiss. I stuck out one of my hands behind me to shut the door and then allowed him to turn me around so I could fall back on the bed.

He got on top of me supporting all his weight so I didn't feel anything but I still wanted him closer to me, I wanted to be apart of him again just like our first time together. I broke the kiss but craned my neck as his lips trailed down my jaw and towards my collarbone. I couldn't for the life of me catch my breath but I wasn't scared, this is how it always was when we would kiss it was inevitable.

I let my hands trail down his back missing the way his muscles tightened under my fingertips. When my hands reached the bottom of his shirt I pulled it up over his head and he finished by throwing it on the ground. My eyes widened and I felt like I might cry again, he picked himself up a little bit as I ran a hand down the center of his chest, the skin was just as soft and smooth as I remembered and when I got down to the buckle of his belt my eyes met his.

He smiled down at me with that crooked grin and I died a little inside "I love you so much Edward. I've never stopped"

I smiled softly as he ran a hand down my cheek and then the side of my neck "Happy Birthday Bella" he whispered making me laugh as his lips crashed down on mine.
