A/N

Nothing to say really. Just, here you go. Please review after!

This girl blew my mind. Just when I thought I had figured her out she would do something that I would never have guessed. Her knee was bouncing slightly in anticipation for the show.

"It will start in a few minutes." I whispered as I placed my hand on her bouncing knee to cease it's action. I noticed her breathing pick up and I couldn't help but smile.

The Russian Ballet was doing Cinderella. They were touring and this was one of their stops. I couldn't believe how beautiful it really was, I thought I might have gotten bored, but I didn't. It wasn't long until I realized that my hand was mid thigh on Bella's leg. I quickly put my hands in my lap and tried to focus on the show that was being performed.

"So am I still getting that massage?" Bella leaned over and whispered. I thought she would have forgotten about it by now.

"I told you I would give you one." I told her but kept my eyes on the show.

We were in my car driving to our next destination as soon as the show was over. Once we arrived Bella's mouth dropped.

"It's so beautiful!" She whispered out as she opened the door and stood by the car staring at the scenery.

"I'm glad you think so."

I took Bella to my friends restaurant. Everything has a Japanese theme so there were ponds with bridges, statues and all sorts of beautiful things in the gardens.

"Come on, I have something for us inside."

"Won't we get in trouble? Their closed aren't they?" She asked worriedly as I pulled her to the door gently.

"Not when the owner is your best friend." I smiled at her.

Once we were inside, the only lights on were the lanterns hanging along the ceiling. I led her to the low table and sat her on one of the cushions on the floor.

"Here." I put a strawberry to her lips.

"Strawberries aren't Japanese." She giggled after she took a bite.

"Maybe not. But I have a few things set up for you." I got the rest of the food that was in a basket by the table. There was a wide assortment of fruits, some small cakes and for the Japanese feel, fortune cookies, I chuckled a little at the last bit of desert. "Here." I handed her the plate of fruits.

"These are my favorites."

"I know." I smirked.

"How?"

"Let's just say I do my research." After a few bites of her fruits, I handed her two different mini cakes.

"These are delicious."

"It's part of the desert here at this restaurant. My friend put it on the menu for me."

"What's his name?"

"Jasper. I've known him since I was born. We grew up together, went to school and college together."

"It's nice you've kept in touch. How old is he?"

"Same age as me, Twenty-four." I had an interesting idea, maybe it would work. "How old is Alice?"

"Twenty-three."

"Hm. What would you say to having them meet?"

"That would be a great idea. I want her to meet someone wonderful. She deserves to be happy."

"And what about you? Are you happy?" I eyed her carefully.

"The happiest I've ever been." She blushed and my heart fluttered.

"Me too." I grabbed her hand. "Come on." I walked her outside back into the garden. When we stepped onto one of the bridge, as planned, all the lights came on. The lights in the trees, the lights in the ponds and on the fountains, all of them.

"Edward." She whispered no louder than a sigh.

"This is my favorite time to come here." I laced my fingers with hers. "There's more, look." I pointed to the waiting solid white horse that was just one bridge away. "Alice told me you've never ridden a horse before, so I thought you might be a little frightened and I hope you aren't opposed to riding with me."

"Not at all. I would rather." Once we got to the horse I helped her up into the saddle. "Where do you sit?" She asked noticing there wasn't anymore room on the saddle.

"Right here." I patted a spot of the horses back behind her.

"Won't you fall off?"

"Probably not." I smiled at her. I had gotten her to change clothes once we had entered the restaurant for this particular purpose. Riding a horse in a dress wasn't a good idea.

I jumped onto the horse and Bella grabbed both of my hands wrapping them around her waist. "Hold on to me." She whispered into my ear, it caused me to shudder slightly. She paused and giggled. "How do we get this thing moving?" I laughed at her choice of words.

"You might want to grab the reigns first." She did and then I clicked my tongue causing the horse to start walking.

"Which way?"

"It doesn't matter. There is an open field that way." I pointed to the right. She nodded and pulled the reigns to the right.

"I'm not sure I like driving." She told me and I held back a laugh.

"You don't have to. I just didn't want you to have to sit uncomfortably."

"Trade me?" I nodded. "How do I make it stop?" I laughed and grabbed the reigns from her hands and pulled back.

"Like that." I told her smiling. She started to swing her leg off. "Hang on." I said placing my hand on her leg to keep her from jumping. "I don't want you to fall. Here, just scoot back a little and I'll swing my leg over. All you will have to do is scoot back." She nodded and sat at the very back of the saddle. Once I plopped in the saddle she lost her balance and slid down causing her to be fully pressed against me. Both of our breathing picked up and neither of us said a word for a while.

"S...sorry." She said trying to scoot back.

"It's fine." I said holding on to her leg. "It will keep you from falling off the horse." I turned my head back so I could see her. She nodded. "Are you ready?" Again she nodded but added a smile.

The horse started walking again, and after about five minutes I turned my head back to Bella. "You want to go faster?" Her arms tightened around my side forcing her even closer to me.

"Alright."

"We don't have to if you don't want to."

"No, I do." I smiled and turned my head back. I kicked the horse and he started to trot.

"Are you alright?"

"Yes."

"Hold on." I kicked the horse again and he started a slow gallop. I couldn't help but smile, I loved feeling like this. I heard Bella laughing and it only thrilled me more that I was sharing this with her. I kicked the horse again and he took off at his fastest gallop. Again Bella's arms tightened but her laughing didn't stop. "Still okay?" I asked loudly, since the wind was whipping past us it was hard to hear. She nodded against my back and I slowed the horse down.

"That was amazing." Bella whispered as the horse came to a stop.

"I'm glad you think so." I turned back and smiled. I brought my leg over and hopped off. I offered my hand to Bella and when she jumped her foot caught on the stirrup causing her to fall forward quickly. I caught her but the force of her falling body, even though she was small, caused me to fall back too. She landed on top of me and we both burst out laughing. Neither of us realized the position we were in for a moment, when we did we fell silent.

I looked down to her awaiting eyes, they were sparkling and she had a slight blush across her cheeks.

"May I?" I asked as I leaned forward. I needed to ask, I wanted to be sure she was alright with it. She nodded and we both stopped breathing as our lips finally met.

The feel of her lips was more than I could have imagined. They were soft and warm and slightly plump. Our lips fit so perfectly together, they moved at the exact same time...it was unreal. I could never explain the way I felt with those too few minutes that passed as her lips connected to mine.

When I pulled back I gazed into her eyes. The look she was giving me was something I never wanted to forget, again, it is something I can't explain.

She smiled up at me and I pressed my lips softly to hers once more. I didn't want to, but I had to pull away after a few moments.

Neither of us wanted to speak, we didn't want to break the connection that was passing through us at that moment.

It could have been years that passed and I wouldn't have noticed anything but Bella, but all too soon it was midnight.

"Thank you so much for this Edward. It was all so perfect." She smiled at me.

"I'm glad you enjoyed it."

"I did. Very much." I leaned my forehead against hers softly and stared into her eyes.

"I guess I should get you home?" I asked even though I didn't want her to leave.

"That would probably be a good idea. I don't know how long Alice will wait before she starts searching for us." I chuckled and took her hand in my and led her back to my car. "You still owe me that massage." Bella said smirking.

"Don't worry. You'll get one." I smirked at her and she blushed.

We drove back to her and Alice's apartment and I saw the lights four floors up were on. I'm sure Alice would bombard Bella with questions.

"I can't tell you how much tonight meant to me." Bella told me as she turned her head to look into my eyes.

"I only hope it meant as much to you as it did me." I replied. I got out of the car and opened her door taking her hand in mine when she was out.

I walked her to her apartment door and she blushed as we stood outside it.

I leaned in close to her ear. "Goodnight Bella. Sleep well." Her breathing picked up and I smiled at the reaction I had on her.

"G'night." She gasped out causing my smile to widen. I gently kissed her lips and squeezed her hand one last time before I turned to walk away. Once I was close to the corner I turned over my shoulder and winked causing her to blush.

Tonight was a night I will never forget, even if I lived 108 years.
