So I am the worst person in the world. I told you guys I would have a chapter to you by Saturday and it is Tuesday now…I am so sorry about that. Things just started to get crazy and I didn't have the time to write a proper chapter. I really hope you guys forgive me and enjoy this next chapter.
I got this idea from carerey819…thank you so much for the idea! Also I want to give a huge thanks to everyone that reviewed the last chapter and gave me their thoughts on what they should do for Bella's birthday. You guys are amazing!!
Still don't own Twilight.
_______________________________________________________________________________________________________
I could not have been happier walking up to my apartment. This morning had been absolutely wonderful and I honestly couldn't wait to see what Edward had in mind for later. I still didn't like the idea of getting so much attention but I was happy to spend time with him. My head was so far in the clouds that I didn't notice everyone staring at me as I walked into the living room.
"Happy birthday Bella," Alice jumped on me while Rose, Emmett, and Jasper all laughed at my reaction.
"What the hell," I stumbled back almost falling over.
"Happy birthday," she said again after letting go of me.
"Thanks," my face was bright red.
"Well we should go back to our place," Emmett and Jasper walked over to me. "Happy birthday little sister," he pulled me into a tight hug then set me back on my feet.
"Happy birthday Bella," Jasper wrapped his arms around me, not as tight as Emmett, and gave me a quick hug.
"Thanks guys," I gave them a small wave then walked into my bed room, falling down on my bed.
I knew I needed to get up and shower so I could get ready for Edward but I was too comfortable where I was. I let last night and this morning replay in my mind, how did I ever get so lucky? I now had the most amazing boyfriend in the world, who also happened to have the most amazing fingers in the world. The thought alone caused me to blush profusely.
"What are you blushing about birthday girl," Alice asked before jumping on to the bed next to me.
"Nothing," I tried to hide the small smile on my face.
"Yeah right, we don't believe that," Rose laughed then jumped on the bed on the other side of me. "Spill Swan," she narrowed her eyes at me.
"Umm…well last night something happened," I could not make eye contact with either of them this was so embarrassing. Part of me felt like sharing, that by telling someone else about it would make it more real. But another part of me felt like it was all to embarrassing to talk about.
"What kind of something," Rose wiggled her eyebrows up and down.
"Well…he ummm…used his," my face was beyond red now and I just held my hands up wiggling my fingers.
They both squealed with delight. Alice started to bounce up and down on the bed clapping her hands and Rose pulled me into a tight hug.
"Oh my God how was it," Rose asked after pulling away.
"Rose I'm not going to tell you that, especially not in front of his sister," I pushed her shoulder then covered my face.
"Dude don't give me that crap you know I don't care if I'm his sister or not. Now tell us," Alice pulled my hands from my face.
"Guys I'm really not going to tell you all the details," they both pouted at me. "But I will let you know that it was beyond amazing, I've never felt more alive then I did last night. And then this morning he asked me to be his girlfriend," I could not get the smile off of my face. I was as giddy as a middle school student, Edward just made everything better.
"Awww," both of them said at the same time. "Bella I'm so happy for you and my brother," Alice pulled me into a tight hug. "I can't wait for you to become my sister," she whispered into my ear before letting go.
"Whatever Alice," I rolled my eyes at her.
"So what are we doing today for your big day," Alice asked. This was the part that I wasn't looking forward to.
"So here is the thing and please don't get mad at me," I held my hands up to her. "Edward asked me to spend the day with him and I said yes," I looked down at my lap. "But can all six of us get tighter to have dinner?"
"Sure," Alice's voice was a little sad.
"Come on Al, don't be like that," I moved closer to her and wrapped my arm around her shoulder. "What if we do whatever you want tomorrow," I hated disappointing her.
"Really," her face lit up with a big smile.
"As long as it isn't anything too scary," she stuck her tongue out at me. "And of course Rose has to do whatever we do too," I pulled Rose into a group hug. "Oh and one more rule, no gifts. Okay?"
"Nope I will not agree to that," Alice said while Rose shook her head no.
"Come on guys, I don't like the idea of you spending money on me," nobody needed to spend their money on me that was just stupid.
"I'm not listening," Alice covered her ears.
"Plus it is already too late for that," Rose had an evil smile on her face.
"What are you talking about?"
"Well Alice and I got bored the other day and went shopping and of course we found the perfect outfit for you. What are you and Edward doing tonight, maybe you could ware it," I guess one outfit from the two of them wasn't so bad.
"I'm not sure what we are doing, it is up to Edward," I shrugged my shoulders.
"The outfit is pretty casual so I think you should wear it, plus I'm dieing to see what you look like in it," Alice jumped off of her bed running across to her room.
Seconds later she ran back in the room carrying a big white bag. She sat down in her previous spot then put the oversize bag on my lap. I pulled out the first box and lifted the lid off of it. There was a beautiful white sun dress with teal, gold, and orange printed flowers on it inside. I opened the next box to find a gold cardigan sweater that matched to color of the flowers. The last box in the bottom of the bag had a teal purse and teal flat battle shoes. Everything was perfect and was something I would pick out on my own.
"You guys this is so beautiful, but you know you didn't have to do this," I pulled Alice into a tight hug then Rose.
"I know we didn't have to but we wanted to," Rose said as I hugged her.
"Okay I need to get in the shower, once I'm done you guys want to do my hair and makeup," I usually didn't ask but I felt like I had to make up for not hanging out with them today.
"Is that even a question, now get your booty in the shower," Alice giggled as Rose and her left the room.
The shower felt amazing and I couldn't help but let my mind wandered to last night's activities. I couldn't wait to try new things with Edward in the bed room. I know last night he said it was about me but I really did want to make me feel as good as he made me. I just hope that I'm half as good as he was.
Once the shower was done I quickly changed into the sun dress Rose and Alice had given me. The dress was absolutely gorgeous and fit me perfectly. It came to just above my knees and flowed as I moved. I didn't put the cardigan on yet since it was still pretty warm outside but instead put it in the new purse they gave me. I looked at myself a few times in the mirror before heading to Alice's room.
"Alright work your magic," I sat down at her vanity.
"Oh Bella the dress looks great on you," Rose gave me a big smile.
"I knew it would," Alice winked at me.
We talked for while as the girls worked on my hair and makeup. They decided to pull my hair back into a ponytail and then lightly curl it. Then they put light, natural makeup on my face. I was happy they were keeping everything simple; my friends really are the best.
When memories fade
We've got each other
When time and confusion collide
Singing I hold it all when I hold you
My phone, which was on Alice's bed, started to ring. The song was one of my favorites but I hadn't assigned it to anybody in my phone book. I checked the caller id quick before answering.
"Time and confusion by Anberlin, great song," I answered with a smile on my face.
"Yes I think so too," my whole body relaxed at the sound of his voice. "Are you almost ready, I miss you," I giggled a little at this but I would be lying if I said I didn't miss him too.
"Yeah I think Rose and Alice are almost done with me," I looked up at the two of them, each smiling and nodding their heads. "Yes I am officially ready."
"Good," he let out a big breath.
"So when are you going to be here," as I asked there was a knock at the door.
The three of us walked to the living room to see who it could be. Alice opened the door revealing Edward holding a bouquet of white and yellow daisies.
"Right about now," he said into the phone before hanging up.
"Oh Edward they are beautiful," I lunged my body at him, pulling him into a tight hug kissing his cheek before pulling away.
"Just like you, simple, delicate, yet extremely gorgeous," he gave me the daisies then brushed my cheek with the back of his hand.
"Awww who knew my big brother was so corny," Alice joked behind us.
"I'm only corny because Bella makes me so happy," it really was corny but I couldn't stop the smile that came to my face. "Are you ready to go," he pulled my right hand up to his mouth and gave it a gently kiss.
"Yes let me put these in water first," I held up the flowers.
"We can do that, you guys go have fun," Alice grabbed the flowers out of my hand.
"I'll text you about where to meet us and what time," Edward said over my head before pulling me out into the hallway.
We walked down to his car holding hands, and just like this morning everything felt right. Being with Edward was unlike anything else. There was just something about him that excited me and relaxed me at the same time.
"Happy birthday Bella. Did I tell you how beautiful you look tonight," he stopped in front of his car and pulled me into his body.
"Nope, I don't think so," I teased him then kissed his neck.
"Well then allow me to tell you," he leaned down to kiss my cheek. "You look stunning," he whispered then kissed my nose. "Gorgeous," kissed my forehead. "Beautiful," his lips touched my other cheek. "Sexy," his lips moved against mine before kissing me. It started off innocent but slowly turned into something else. I ran my hands through his hair pulling his head closer to mine. I was trying to be bold so I lightly ran my tongue against his upper lip wanting him to open his mouth for me. Immediately he parted his lips, his tongue met me messaging my own. He pulled his mouth away from mine and we both inhaled getting the much need oxygen. His mouth moved to my jaw and kiss up to my ear. "Bella we need to get going or I'm not going to be able to control myself much longer," he whispered in my ear.
"And what is wrong with that," there was just something about this man that made me feel confident.
"Bells you're killing me," he pulled away then kissed the top of my head.
I giggled but got in the car, I knew it was mean to do that to him but I truly couldn't help myself.
"So where are we going," he grabbed my hand as he started the car.
"Now if I told you that then it wouldn't be a surprise," he raised my hand and kissed my knuckles.
"Fine," I huffed but couldn't stop smiling.
We talked a little while driving but for the most part it was quite. It was never uncomfortable and I loved every minute of it. Every now and then Edward would lift our locked hands and kiss the back of my hand or my knuckles. Everything seemed perfect. He turned the corner and my eyes landed on what I assumed was our destination.
"We're going to a carnival," I was excited and couldn't hide the little squeal that came out of my mouth.
"Do you like it," he laughed at me.
"Yes, I love carnivals but I haven't been in years," I used to love going with my mom but it had been a while since we last went.
"Good I'm really happy that you like it," he kissed the back of my hand one more time before we both got out of the car.
"So what would you like to do first," we walked holding hands through the carnival.
"Tonight is up to you Bells," he leaned down to kiss my cheek.
"How about we go to the fun house first," I know a lot of people thought they were creepy but I loved them. The mirrors were my favorite; I loved how they distorted my body.
Edward stopped at the both and bought enough tickets for a large family. I tried to pay for half but he wouldn't take my money, said it was all part of my birthday gift. The fun house wasn't busy yet so we didn't have to wait to go in. Edward and I had a great time goofing off; it was so easy to be myself with him. We spent an extra long time in the room of mirrors making silly faces at each other.
Once we were done with the fun house we walked around the carnival looking at everything. We found a small petting zoo with baby sheep and goats. Edward bought some food for me to feed them. The lambs were by far the cutest things I had ever seen. A small clumsy white one kept coming back to me even when I was out of food. He nuzzled his head against me and whimpered when I had to leave.
"I think someone is going to miss you," Edward chuckled and kissed my temple.
"I'm going to miss him too. Too bad I can't have sheep in my apartment," I joked with him.
"Yeah I think Rose and Alice would have way too much dressing up that poor animal if you brought it home," he laughed and took my hand after I whipped it off.
"You are right, Rose and Alice would go crazy," we both laughed. I loved the sound of Edward's laugh and the way his whole face would light up as he did so.
We walked for a little longer, stopping to go on the tilt-a-world. Edward held me tight the whole time and the ride was amazing. I made him ride it again with me as soon as we were done and of course he did. I'm pretty sure this man would do anything just to make me happy. Turley he was the best boyfriend in the world. Just thinking about him as my boyfriend made me smile bigger.
"What are you thinking about," he leaned down to whisper in my ear.
"About my wonderful boyfriend," I loved saying that.
"I love when you call me that," he lightly kissed me on the lips.
"Good because I love calling you that," I teased.
I saw a booth for foot long hotdogs and my mouth started to water. Normally I don't eat hotdogs but it was one food I couldn't stay away from at carnivals. Along with cotton-candy and mini doughnuts. Carnivals and healthy food just don't go together.
"Edward?"
"Yes Bells," he pulled me closer.
"Can we get hotdogs for lunch," I felt so foolish for asking.
"Of course we can," he laughed and pulled me even closer to his body. "Anything you want you just have to tell me," he kissed my head.
I found a small picnic table under a tree close to the hotdog booth. Edward went to get us lunch while I saved the table. I watched him standing in line and couldn't shake the feeling that I was the luckiest person in the world. Edward's eyes shifted from my face to over my head and his smile turned into a frown. I turned around and followed his eyes to see Jacob heading towards me.
"Bella," he waved then sat down next to me.
"Hey Jake," he gave me a big hug to which I returned awkwardly.
"How are you doing," he asked once he pulled away.
"I'm good, you?"
"Good, good. A little sad that I haven't heard from you yet," he bumped his shoulder with mine.
"Yeah sorry about that, I've been busy with classes and friends," I waved my hands in front of me.
"No worries but we do need to get together soon," he smiled at me and it was hard not to return the smile.
"Sure," I nodded my head just as Edward came back with lunch.
He sat the food down in front of me then sat across from Jacob and me. His eyes were hard and narrowed at Jacob. This was not good at all. I didn't want anything to mess up the amazing day the two of us were having and obviously Jacob being her was doing that.
"So Jacob, did you come her with anyone," I tried to play it off cool.
"Yeah a few of my buddies, I guess I should get back to them before they leave without me," his face fell a little and I couldn't help but feel bad about it. "I guess I will see you around Bella," he hugged me again then got up from his seat. Never once did he look at Edward, but Edward hadn't stopped glaring at him.
"Edward," I reached across the table and grabbed his hands.
"Sorry," his eyes moved from the sea of people behind me to my face. "I just don't like the way he looks at you. And yes I know that makes me sound like a jealous possessive boyfriend but it is how I feel," he let out a big breath then ran his free hand through his hair.
"Edward it is okay," I rubbed circles on the back of his hand would my thumb. "Would it sound horrible if I told you that jealous Edward kind of turns me on," I mumbled the last part and prayed that he wouldn't hear me.
"What was that Bells," clearly he had heard me since he was grinning from ear to ear.
"You heard me," my face was deep red and I couldn't look him in the eyes.
"I think you might have to tell me again," he pulled my hand up to his mouth. I expected to get another kiss on the back of my hand not to feel him suck hard while his tongue massages my skin. It felt completely sexy and my mind instantly started to think of other things we could be doing. "You alright there Bells," he asked once he pulled his mouth away from my hand.
"Yeah," my voice was low which caused him to laugh.
"Come on beautiful why don't we finish our lunch then walk around some more. I see a pink teddy bear calling your name," he nodded his head to one of them many games set up.
I laughed then picked up my hotdog taking a big bite. We talked on and off while eating, we were having a great time people watching. We would make up different stories about the people around us. Like the guy and girl a few tables away from us, they were sitting across from each other and every time the girl looked down the guy would look at her and visa versa. We assumed they were totally in love with each other but didn't have the courage to say anything about it. I always made stories like that up in my mind but never found someone that would do it with me. Edward was now that someone.
"You ready for me to win you a teddy bear," he pulled me off the chair and headed towards the booth.
"Edward you really don't have to do this," these games were always rigged.
"I want to do this, besides if I don't win you something I'd feel like a bad boyfriend," he laughed then kissed my temple.
He picked the booth that had the three milk jugs stacked up like a pyramid.
"You going to win that pretty little lady a teddy bear," the creepy guy behind the booth asked Edward as we walked up to him.
"That is the plan," Edward handed him the money then got the two balls.
The first one hit the top jug and knocked it down. He only had the one ball left and I knew there really was a slim chance he would hit them both. Of course, Edward being the amazing person that he is knocked both of them down. The creepy guy looked a little pissed that Edward actually did it but gave us the bear anyway.
"Here you go beautiful," he gave me the big pink bear.
"You were amazing," I wrapped my arms around his neck and lifted myself to kiss him on the lips. "Thanks," I mumbled against his lips.
"Anything for you Bella. Anything," he whispered the last part before kissing me again.
We walked around for a few hours stopping at a few booths and rides along the way. Edward had to carry the bear for me because it kept falling out of my arms. He looked so cute walking around with a big pink teddy bear under his arm. The sun was just about to set when Edward grabbed my hand and headed towards the Farris wheel.
The line was a little long; the carnival had defiantly gotten busier since we first arrived. Edward stood behind me wrapping his arms in front of my stomach holding the bear against my chest.
"I love being here with you," I mumbled as he laid his head down on my shoulder.
"Me too Bells," he kissed the side of my neck.
"Thank you so much Edward. This is by far the best birthday I have ever had," he pulled me closer to his body.
"I am more then happy to do this for you Bella. Anything you want, any day," he kissed my neck again.
"Edward you are going to spoil me if you do that," I giggled and could feel his smile against my neck.
"That is the plan sweetheart," he kissed me again.
Finally we got to the front of the line and got into one of the carts. Edward put the bear against the side of the cart next to me so we could sit by each other. He wrapped he hand around my back and held me tight. The sun started to set as we got closer to the top, everything seemed right. The view from the top was breathtaking and made me smile. I melted into Edward's side and he pulled my body closer to his.
"Bella," his hand pulled my chin to look up at him. "There is something I wanted to give you," he seemed nervous which made me nervous.
"Edward you really didn't have to do that," I hated when people spent money on me and already Edward had spent enough on me today.
"I know I didn't have to. But believe me when I say I wanted to," he pulled something out of his pocket. The Farris wheel stopped right when we got to the top and he turned slightly to look at me. "Bella I know you have only been in my life for a little over a week but I have never felt this way before. You make me so happy Bella; words can hardly describe the feelings I have for you. I know this sounds crazy and I really hope I don't scare you off," she started rambling which was extremely cute.
"Edward it isn't crazy and I'm not going anywhere. And not only because I'm stuck here but because this is where I want to be," I leaned over and gave him a quick kiss.
"Good," his voice was still unsteady and he looked down at his hand that was holding a small box. "Bella I would like you to have this," he handed me the small box then watch my face as I opened it.
Inside was a delicate gold ring. The ring had a thin band that made the outline of a heart in the middle. It was simple and beautiful, something that I could see myself wearing all the time (Picture of Bella's outfit and the ring on my profile).
"Edward," my eyes started to fill with tears.
"I would really like it if you wore this," he grabbed the box then took the right out. He took my right hand and slid the ring down my ring finger. It fit perfectly and made me so happy.
"Edward it is perfect," tears started to fall down my face. Edward gently whipped them away before kissing each of my eyelids.
"You hold my heart in your hand now Bella," he gently kissed my lips as the Farris wheel started to move again.
