Disclaimer: I do not own twilight. Ask Stephenie Meyer.

A/N: I'm so sorry. I actually finished this chapter before Christmas, but my computer decided to be a total bitch and won't turn on. I tried everything to retrieve my other files but it still won't work.

So now I'm repeating this chapter, but to tell you the truth I enjoy writing this, I don't feel obliged to write but because I enjoy expressing what's on my mind, and of course my addiction to twilight. LOL!

Oh and MERRY CHRISTMAS! Even if it's a little late. On with the story…….

EPOV

I woke up the next morning trying to remember what happened yesterday. All I could remember was of Bella and the texts I've received from her. I glanced at my clock only to find out that it' thirty minutes past eight. Shoot.

I quickly got of my bed and I ran towards the bathroom. I had 45 minutes left to get ready and have breakfast. Emmett decided that we should meet up today since I had this day off, he seemed as excited as I was.

I brushed my teeth and ran a hand through my hair trying to fix the impossible mess. I went out of the bathroom and grabbed some clothes. I changed into a pair of black basket ball shorts and a white sleeveless shirt.

I put a white dress shirt and black slacks in a duffel bag and all the things I needed after my work out with Emmett at the gym. I quickly put on my socks and shoes.

With only 25 minutes to spare I ran to the elevator before it closed. When I got to the lobby I saw a red head woman behind the desk looking at a magazine only to find out that it was a Vanity Fair June issue. Oh no.

(A/N: Vanity Fair is also not mine, so the ones I'll be mentioning here are not true or things I just made up. BTW this is a disclaimer. LMAO! I'm weird I know.)

The woman looked my way and I froze as she sized me up. Though this happens a lot I'm still far from getting used to the attention people give me, especially women.

"Oh my God!!" the woman screamed as she fanned herself. The whole lobby looked at her like she was crazy, well I guess she is.

She pointed at me slightly shaking while I stepped back, ready to escape if she tackles me.

"You're Dr. Edward Cullen! AHHH!" I covered my ears with my hands trying to prevent further damage. She started to run towards me and I squeezed my eyes shut bracing myself from her.

Suddenly two big security guards grabbed her by the arms and dragged her away from me. The manager came soon after apologizing. The people in the lobby were whispering and were also pointing at me. God!

"No! Wait! He's the Sexiest Man Alive! It says so in the magazine! Don't take me away! Marry me! EDWARD!!!!!" the woman screamed pointing on the cover of Vanity Fair with me on the cover while she was being dragged somewhere by the guards.

I slapped myself on the forehead. I knew I should have never agreed with Alice. She was the one who insisted on me doing this. I glanced at my wristwatch.

"Crap, its 9 o'clock. Emmett's definitely going to kill me."

"Is anything wrong sir?" the manager, who appeared in front of me asked.

"Actually, before this……. Incident happened……. Did my car come?" I requested my mother to ship my Volvo here in Chicago. I was informed by my secretary that it would come today.

"Yes, there was a car that came here earlier today." He replied with a British accent. The manager didn't look half bad, in his late thirties I guess. Clean shave and nice suit, very high class.

He handed me my car keys that he got from behind the desk and called for a valet.

"The car is waiting for you outside sir. Is there anything else?" he asked and I shook my head.

"Thank you….. Cadbury." I acknowledged as I looked at his name tag. (A/N: is you watched Richie Rich, you'll know. Ha-ha.)

"A pleasure sir." I walked towards the exit and saw a valet bring in my precious car. The Volvo looked exactly how I left it. I haven't seen it for a few months now.

One of the directors of the company wanted me to take a limo at all times. We practically just ignore him, but Aro is a very important asset to the company even if he wants me out.

I practically ran to the driver's side and handed the valet $100. He thanked me and I sped off towards the gym, a typical meeting place for Emmett.

On my way there, I decided to call Tanya, my ever so hated secretary. I don't mix work with my personal life, but she's been driving me insane. Sure she's a good secretary, she finishes her work but she sometimes thinks I'm in love with her or something. She's wacko.

"Hello, Cullen med. Dr. Edward Cullen's office." Said a very sickly sweet voice. I never call her on her personal cell phone; it would make her think I like the attention she's giving me.

"It's Edward Cullen. Tanya do you have any time to spare today?" I asked, I was wondering if she could get me a real state agent. I wanted to move into a house rather than an apartment; it would give me more freedom and privacy if I had my own home.

"Of course! All my time in the world is devoted to you Edward." She replied too fast and too excited. I think she tried to make her voice seductive.

"Great, then you wouldn't mind finding me a real state agent by…. Monday." I checked my schedule to see that I had nothing to do at that day except to meet with Bella at Nicky's. Maybe I could ask Bella to come with me….

"Fine, goodbye." Her voice dropped and I can't help but to think she was expecting something else.

I finally arrived at the gym Emmett goes to. I parked my Volvo at the parking lot across the gym and crossed the street.

With my duffel bag on my shoulder I walked towards Emmett lifting some weights, who to my dismay was working out beside a blonde, whose fake breasts look like there about to explode out of her any minute.

Emmett had a thing for blondes.

As I was nearing them I could hear their conversation more clearly.

"You have such big biceps. How many pounds can you lift? " said the blonde girl as she leaned closer to Emmett trying to show her cleavage.

Emmett didn't answer but instead continue to workout. I approached them and the blonde looked up grinning to me.

"Why hello there handsome." The blonde said touching my arm. I flinched and looked at Emmett who was still distracted with his work out.

He suddenly looked my way and dropped the weights he was holding and came rushing to me.

The blonde stepped back as Emmett gave me one of his bone crushing hugs which he only gives to his family and close friends.

The blonde stared in disgust "Gays." She walked off swaying her hips and I heard Emmett's booming laugh.

"Missed you bro!" Emmett said with much enthusiasm. I patted his back and went to the nearest bench to drop off my bag.

"How's Rosalie? I better not catch you cheating on her." he smiled and shook his head.

"Rosalie's good. Still being a good mechanic like always. We've been trying to have a baby but It just won't come." He said with a sad smile.

Rosalie and Emmett have been married for 10 years now but they still don't have children.

"Em, you've been trying since high school." I stated.

It was true, Emmett's room was across from mine when we used to live with our parents and every time my parents would leave the house they become so noisy that Alice and I would drag them out of the house and threaten to tell.

He rolled his eyes and we started to work out. I did a couple of weights and decided to run on the treadmill. Two hours later we hit the showers and Emmett offered to buy me lunch.

We had lunch in at a diner near a krispy Kreme, knowing Emmett he'll buy a few boxes after lunch.

Just as I suspected, we went to krispy kreme to have coffee and donuts. Emmett ordered a box of donuts and coffee. We sat down on an empty table.

"Hey Eddie, have you been sleeping around?" he asked boldly. Emmett is such a pervert.

"Dude, of course not. But there is someone I met yester-"

"So you had sex with her and fell in love?" I was cut off by Emmett and his perverted mind before I could finish my sentence.

"There's no point in talking to you." I glared at Emmett and he started to shake with laughter.

"Chill man! Loosen up a little. I know you haven't been laid!" I glared at him some more and all he did was take a big bite of his chocolate glazed donut.

"Oh yeah! Last time I checked Emmy was eating too much donuts he can't stand up from his leather chair." I teased. Emmett became silent; he hated it when we bring up the topic that he was gigantic back when he was back in middle school.

He glared at me and I smirked, admitting defeat he continued to eat his donut and so did I.

Memories of Emmy flooded back in my mind. Like the time he first saw rose in one of my mother's elite tea parties. Man, was Emmett star struck. I laughed out loud and Emmett quickly shot me a glare.

"You better not be thinking of Emmy moments." He said with a serious face. I quieted down, knowing Emmett would be up set and be a cry baby if I say more.

We finished eating and Emmett had to practice for an upcoming tournament. We said our goodbyes and I decided to go for a drive around the city and maybe shop a little.

I went to the nearest mall and parked my car near an Aston Martin Vantage. I stared at it in awe. I tried to get one a few months ago but decided not to since I couldn't take care of it anyway. Besides I had too many cars already…

I went inside the mall and went straight to the bookstore. I spent hours finding medical books and finally purchased the one I'm looking for.

I exited the store and looked at my clock. It was already four thirty, why don't I give someone a call.

I grabbed my phone and dialled jasper's number. He answered after the fourth ring.

"Hello? Edward?"

"Jasper! Where are you? Are you with Alice at the moment?" I asked, I hope she was I wanted to meet her, but I know she'll kill me because I haven't bought the trench coat she asked…. Or demanded.

"Yeah, she's with me, actually I want you to meet somebody."

"Sure. Where are you guys at?" jasper told me the mall and café only to find out that I was really near. I hung up and walked as fast as I could to the café. I didn't know why I was such in a hurry, but something tells me I should.

I entered and saw jasper sitting alone, sipping his coffee. I waved at him and he waved back.

"Hey jazz! Nice to see you. Where's Alice?" he pointed towards the bathroom and I nodded. I noticed the spilled coffee on the floor and wondered who owned it.

It couldn't be Alice's, she's anything but clumsy.

"Edward!" I turned around to see my hyper active sister running towards me. We hugged and I kissed her cheek.

I looked towards the direction where she came from and my eyes saw the most beautiful pair of eyes I have ever seen since yesterday.

Bella.

"Bella-" we stared at each other for a minute. She was looking directly at me and I can't help but to smile. A smile I never actually did before, something I know would

Only be her's.

"Edward." She said as she smiled back.

"Alice!" Alice interfered. Bella laughed and came to sit next to me. I stared at her for a second and stared back at what she was wearing. She was beautiful as usual.

She was wearing something that would make any guy drool but didn't reveal much but her long legs.

Faith seems to be on my side.

A/N: thanks for reading! Hope you liked it! Okay so any ideas on what Edward should do next. I have a few in mind, but I ask you to suggest anyway. So bye now! Rate and review please. Oh and sorry for the grammar and spelling mistakes.
