DISCLAIMER; I DO NOT OWN TWILIGHT!

I woke up to the baby kicking endlessly. This baby was exhausting. I had put on more pounds with this baby than with Chloe. My feet and back were constantly throbbing. It felt like the baby was sitting on my bladder and kicked me as if I were it's personal soccer ball. Conner was a piece of work.

Edward had woken up too. Since we were snuggled in each other's arms, the baby kicked him awake. I got up to go to the bathroom and Edward fell back to sleep. It was a double baby shower today according to Alice. Saying that Rose and I were having our baby showers together was too long in her opinion.

I took a relaxing shower and put on a midnight blue long, summer dress and silver sandals. I put on some light make up and walked into the bathroom. And there stood Edward looking me up and down; his eyes landing on my stomach. He always had the biggest smile when he saw my stomach. I just rolled my eyes. This was my usual reaction.

"Hello, love," He said gently. He kissed me and of course my stomach. "Hey there, Conner." My stomach kicked.

The guys were on strict orders from Alice to stay in their homes. I was disappointed. I knew there was going to be attention on me and the idea did appeal to me at all. When I found out this was also Rose's baby shower, I felt like a weight had been lifted off her shoulders. She liked all attention except the paparazzi; which was understandable.

I checked on Chloe who was still sound asleep. I went into the kitchen for something to eat. Even though, it had to be light because the baby shower was a brunch. Edward came in with sweatpants and a wife beater. His hair was dripping water; evidence that he took a shower. He ate something too.

The time was spent either making out like hormonal teenagers or Edward talking to Conner. Chloe had woken up but unfortunately I had to go. I said a quick hello and goodbye to her and made my way to Rose's apartment. Alice and Jasper moved out because it was more convenient for them. Jasper was an interning at one of the top therapist offices in the country and Alice was working as an assistant to a high- end boutique owner. Their apartment was closer to their job.

I reached my destination and knocked on the door. It was swiftly opened to reveal a stunning, pregnant Rosalie in short, purple dress. She had black gladiators on. She reached over and picked up her purse and we were off.

We walked to Norma's. It was a restaurant that served breakfast, brunch, and lunch. I hadn't eaten there before, but I was told that it was very chic and had great food. We grabbed a taxi and made small talk; but nothing of importance. You could tell that she was excited for the arrival of Alexa Belle.

We arrived at the restaurant and paid the cab driver. We walked in and told the martyr the baby shower we were here for. She led us to a circular table and there sat our family and friends. I noticed that we were the only ones there, so Alice must have rented the whole place out.

"Rose! Bella!" exclaimed Alice. She was dancing her way over to us in a violet, print skirt and gray embellished tank top. We greeted her back with the same enthusiasm. We thanked her and she waved it off as no big deal.

Rosalie and I went around the table greeting everyone. I only recognized Sophia, my mother, and Esme. The others were aunts of Rosalie and Edward. They gushed over our huge bellies and couldn't help but notice that this explained Alice's hyperness. We ordered our food and I ordered breakfast quesadillas. I finally figured the reason why we had to rent out the whole place.

Everyone was telling embarrassing memories of Edward, Emmett, and Jasper. Thankfully my mother or Esme decided to add use as one of their victims. Rose and I opened presents. I got a ton of clothes for Conner and Esme told us she would decorate nurseries as well as giving us a gift card for an exclusive baby boutique.

The day ended all too soon and everyone got up to say their goodbyes. Esme offered Rose and I a ride to our homes and I was grateful. When she arrived at my house, I asked if she wanted to come inside, but she politely refused saying that she had a private jet to catch in a couple of hours.

It didn't surprise me; this was our lifestyle. I made my way to my apartment. I just wanted to see my baby girl already. Oh and Edward too. I walked in and Chloe ran to me. I couldn't pick her up because of my stomach. Edward came over and gave me a kiss and picked up Chloe. She hugged me.

"Hi momma," she said.

"Hi baby," I responded. Edward put her down and she whispered, "Hi Cowner," to my stomach. She was doing this a lot. Chloe went back to her toys and Edward kissed me, but I pulled back before it was a full make-out session. He pouted, but I winked. He immediately got the hint and perked up.

I told him the embarrassing stories I had recently learned and he blushed. That I had to laugh at. He forbid those stories to ever come out again. I agreed. For now.

I made dinner and we ate. Chloe had one of those pre-made baby meals. She reluctantly, but thankfully didn't throw a temper tantrum. I gave her a bath and put her too sleep. She went to sleep right away.

I took a shower and washed my hair. I towel dried my hair so it would remain tamable tomorrow. I put on my pajamas. As always, Conner demanded to have a late night snack. I opened the door and was appalled to see rose petals down the hallway. But there were pieces of paper as well.

I bent down and picked one up.

There is only one happiness in life. To love and to be loved – George Sand

The pregnancy hormones decided to make their presence known and caused me to be on the verge of tears. I followed the rose petals to the next know. I picked this one up as well.

"When you are in love, you cant fall asleep because reality is better than your dreams"-Dr. Seuss

It was getting harder to control my emotions. I went to the next note.

"Your words are my food; your breath is my wine. You are everything to me," – Sarah Berndhart

It was now the end of the hallway. I kept my eyes on the trail on the trail of roses. From what I can tell, I was going to land in the kitchen. The apartment was dimly lit by candles. I saw another note and rushed over to it.

"So dear I love him that with him, all deaths I could endure. Without him, live no life."
-- William Shakespeare, Romeo and Juliet

I should have known that he would have thrown something that represented the love of my books. I followed the same process and picked up the piece of paper.

"Two souls with but a single thought, Two hearts that beat as one." – Friedrich Halm

I was at the entryway of the kitchen now. I followed the train of rose petals with me eyes. They stopped once they had reached the island. I frowned; I didn't want them to end. A giggle caught my attention. I was taken aback at the scene in front of me.

There stood Chloe with a cupids outfit on. She had a note in her hand and was extending it towards me with a smile on her face. I wobbled over to her and grabbed the paper and read it.

"As we grow older together, As we continue to change with age, There is one thing that will never change. . . I will always keep falling in love with you." – Karen Clodfelder

I smiled at the piece of paper and let the tears silently fall. I looked up at Chloe and watched as she look behind me and giggled. I turn my body in that direction.

Edward was kneeling on the ground in a tux. My hand flew up to my mouth to smother a gasp. He was not about to do what he was going to do. Oh god I am not even thinking right!

He reached over to his pocket and took out a black velvet box.

"The first time I saw you my life had meaning. I watched as other love stuck couples spent their time in total bliss. You came into my life and your mere presence fulfilled my wishes. Your beauty kept me entranced. Your eyes were so easy to get lost in. My hands just wanted to get lost in your long, mahogany locks. You were so different from the other girls. By one look you had me in the palm of your hands. When you leave, my heart remembers the time where I let you go. Where I had acted so stupid and ignored the voice telling me to have you in my arms," Edward told me gently.

"And now I think you have left one too many times. I want to stay with you forever. For you to be sole fully mine. Isabella Marie Swan, will you marry me?"

I didn't know what to say so to say me from embarrassment, I just nodded. He opened the box to reveal the most stunning ring I have ever seen. It was so simple, so me. He slid it on to my finger. The perfect fit. He kissed me with so much force and I eagerly responded.

"Eww," I heard Chloe say. We pulled apart and laughed. I looked at my newly titled fiancé.
