I laughed some more and went into my bedroom to give them some privacy.
"Jake, help me," Bella screamed.
I laughed and tucked myself into my bed.
Bella's POV
Thank god I am done with college. I have my degree and this is the last summer that I have before I start living in the working class world.
Edward and I have been together the whole time. I am going to keep living with him, but Jake is moving out. He wants to live on his own in the real world. I think it has to do with the fact that he is single again. He is what anybody with a brain would call a player, but he is still my best friend.
"You ready to go?" Edward asks bringing me out of my thoughts.
"Almost," I say putting my earrings in. Tonight he is taking me on a special date to celebrate our new found freedom.
"Ready," I say going into our living room.
"You look great," he says pulling me into a deep meaningful hug.
"You too. You going to tell me where you are taking me?" I say batting my eyes.
"Not yet, you will see," he grabs my arm and leads me to his car.
I watch where we are going to look for any clue as to where we were going.
"Bella, I love you," he says bringing my had to his mouth and placing a small kiss on it.
"I love you too. Now where are we going?"
"We are here," he says pulling into a parking garage by the arch.
"Okay," I say slowly.
"It is just a short walk," he told me noticing my apprehension.
I take his hand and let him lead the way.
We were walking along the Mississippi River watching the waves when he stops.
I look up at him confused. He nods his head at the horse drawn carriages. "We are going to ride in one of those?"
"Yes," he says leading me up the stairs to them. They were beautiful, they made me think of Cinderella.
He talks to the driver and hands him some cash and then helps me into it. We ride and hear the clanck- clop of the horses hooves on the brick ground.
We stop outside of a small diner that had this beautiful antique-ish look.
He helps me out and the carriage just sits there.
He leads me into the diner and we place our order. "Edward, this is just.... beautiful."
"Bella, I love you so much. I think that I have always loved you," he says standing up.
Oh my God, what is he doing?
"Will you spend the rest of your life with me? Will you marry me?" he say kneeling down on one knee pulling a small velvet box out of his jacket pocket.
'Yes!' I think. My mouth is open but won't form the word yes.
Edward opens the box and shows me the most gorgeous ring I have ever seen.
Why won't my mouth move. I shake my head up and down to tell him yes since my mouth is not working.
He smiles my crooked smile and grabs my hand and slides the ring on my finger.
"It was my grandmother's ring. She gave it to me and told me that she wanted me to give it to you, but if you don't like it we can get you a different one," he says shyly.
I stand up and pull him to his feet and hug him tightly. "I love it," I say then kiss him softly on his lips.
The people that were watching the whole this start to clap and my cheeks start to burn.
"I love you," Edward whispers into my ear.
I smile to him, "I love you," I softly say back.
We eat our dinner and get back into the carriage and head back to our car.
