Chapter 13- Supper Time
(Edward's P.O.V)
We just arrived home, and I ran in to Bella. I hugged her and kissed her so much she was laughing.
"You make it look like you've been without me for years" She smiled my favorite smile.
"Technically it feels like that. So when does Charlie come over? How did it go with Jacob?" I asked, as I picked up my lovely fiancée and carried her bridal style up to our room.
She laughed all the way up. I sat her on the bed, and waited for her to tell me everything that was going on between Jacob and her.
"Charlie is coming at 5:30. Jacob met me out in the driveway. We talked about how we want to be friends again. We'll only get together with you, the family or meet at a public place just him and I once in a while. That is all that happened. I don't love him like that anymore." She said with a big smile.
"You don't love him anymore?" I asked speechless.
"Yea, once I was changed and I thought about Jacob I realized that he was only a friend and deep inside he was something to support me while everything happened" She said carefully, trying not to bring up the worst part of our lives.
Even though the memory was bitter sweet, I was smiling like there was no tomorrow. I knew she loved me more, but now I didn't have to worry about anyone else trying to take her away from me. This would be nice.
I ran over to her in a few quick steps, and swept her off the bed and into my arms. "I love you so much Bella Marie" I kissed her on the lips with such a force that you could probably hear our kiss from a few miles away.
A few minutes later I pulled away, so we could get some oxygen even though we didn't need it, it was a force of habit.
"Edward, Bella? Can you come down here and help me out?" Esme whispered.
Bella and I laughed, as I carried us down the stairs. Once we got to the bottom of the stairs, I let her down so we could walk into the kitchen holding hands instead.
"What's up Esme?" I asked with a huge smile.
"I need Bella to set the table, and I need you to get everything ready for when Charlie gets here in a hour and a half. I want everything to be perfect," She said sincerely.
5:30 PM
The doorbell rang, and Bella was ecstatic. She was missing her father so much! Emmett answered the door with a big smile all written over his face.
"Hey Charlie, good to see you again" he chuckled.
"You too" Charlie smiled back.
That's when Bella ran from the kitchen out to the living room screaming "Daddy"
We all laughed, as Bella slowly ran into Charlie's arms.
"I missed you too kiddo. How are you doing?" he laughed, as he wrapped his arms around Bella.
"Good, I haven't seen you forever. What have you been up to?" She asked smiling. I took Charlie's coat from him, and hung it up on the coat rack.
Charlie and Bella were heading towards the living room to catch up with one another. After all it's been a month.
The rest of the family went in the kitchen, to give Charlie, Bella and I some privacy. I walked over to Bella and sat down.
(Carlisle's P.O.V.)
The whole night went by fast. Charlie and all of us talked about the wedding, and what everyone's been up to the whole dinner conversation. You could tell that he was really missing Bella, so the little time he got with her made him truly happy.
We finally ended up saying goodbye to Charlie about ten or so. After that was done, Bella and Edward helped Esme clean up the kitchen. While the rest of us, went to the living room and turned on the news.
There was nothing interesting on, so I walked into the kitchen to see how my children and wife were doing. I walked into them playing Uno, and having a great time.
"Mind if I join?" I asked with love.
"Come on in" Bella giggled.
I grabbed a hand, and started to play.
We ended up playing the game for the rest of the night, and just enjoyed our little game, as we never got time like this. This would be something I would remember forever.
