Bellas point of view

February 9th

The past few days have been... rough. Edward has been there for me non-stop. I honestly didnt know what I would do without him.

My dad is sewing the air conditioning company. Carlisle is his lawyer. So far it looks pretty good. Our whole house its burnt to a crisp, yay us.

They also gave me about 200 dollars to get anything I need. Clothes, bathroom supplies, shoes, etc. Not much, but I dont need a lot anyway. Edward was more than willing to hand out money to me. Weirdo. I would never except money from him though.

My parents asked me to meet them after school today, so Edward drove me to the hotel and now im waiting for them to open up there mouths and say something.

"Your father got a job offer, and we found a brand new house thats not to far from it." My mom said.

"Great." I smiled.

"Where is it?" I asked.

"Thats the problem..." My mom trailed off.

"Huh?" I asked.

"Its in Florida Bells." My dad said.

"B-but what about me?" I asked.

"Well of course we wouldnt forget about you."

I narrowed my eyes and sat back.

"Where am I going?"

"Your going with us." My dad said.

"No. Im not." I said lowly.

"Bella its not that far away-"

"No!" Tears started streaming down my face. What about me and Edward? I kept picturing his flawless face in my head and the tears got thicker.

"Im not going with you!"

"Bella." My mom sighed. She shared a look with my dad and he nodded.

"Look, we will give you some money about half of a down payment for an appartment."

"W-what?" I asked.

"We are leaving in 3 weeks. You can stay. But! You have to raise enough money to pay for the rest of your appartment. That means getting a job, etc. Ok?" My dad said sternly.

"W-what?"

"Are you following us?" My mom laughed. I shook my head no.

"If you get enough money, you can stay. If not and you cant take care of yourself then your coming with us."

"W-what?"

"Bella!" They said exasperated.

"Sorry, its taking me a few minutes to digest this." I said.

"Baby girl, I want you to be tooken care of. I know that you want to stay. Even if it is for a boy." My mom said and rolled her eyes. I blushed and looked away.

"Well, I mean the colleges here are really good..." I laughed nervously.

"Hmmph." My dad grumbled.

"Bella you only have three weeks. But, we did find a job that you may like." My mom said.

"And that is?"

"The Italian restaraunt in Port Angelos."

"Fresh Garden?"

"Yeah, you know Micheal Newton. His parents own the place."

"Oh god." I said under my breath.

"What?"

"Nothing. It sounds nice." I smiled.

They hugged me and left for work.

"Oh god." I said again. Edward is so not going to like this.

I dialed Mikes number, a number not in my whole life have I ever dialed it before.

"Bella?" He asked excited.

"Hey Mike."

"Bella!"

"Mike." I laughed.

"So, um my parents said they talked to your parents about a job at your restaraunt."

"Oh! Yeah. So what do you say?"

"I say yes."

"Sweet!" He yelled.

"Ok Mike well I got to go bye!"

"Bye!"

I hung up and sighed.

"Oh god."

February 14th

Today was my first day of work. Great. I bought my uniform yesterday. Black pants, black heels, white button up shirt.

Edward still doesnt know.

I put the combination in my locker and opened it.

I grinned and my eyes got watery when I saw what was inside.

There was a tiny blue teddy bear with a box of chocolate sitting there. I opened the tiny card and laughed.

I love the color blue on you, love Edward.

"It just looks so beautiful against your skin." A velvety voice said from behind me. I turned around and kissed him hard.

"Happy Valentines day beautiful." He said.

"Happy Valentines day." I rolled my eyes.

"Whats with the eye roll?" He chuckled.

"Your so corny."

He opened his locker then smirked. He pulled out the big red and black teddy bear that I got him and laughed.

"Im corny?" He scoffed.

"Yep." I smiled and pecked his lips.

"Thank you." He chuckled.

"How'd you get in my locker?" He asked.

"I had Alice crawl through the cracks." I grinned.

He chuckled and shook his head sadly.

"So, im surprised. No exspensive gifts?" I said.

He closed his locked and leaned against it looking me in the eye.

"Your having a hard week. I'd rather not upset you. I'll wait till your more happy to spoil you with gifts."

"Gee thanks." I said sarcastically. We started walking to lunch holding hands.

"Besides taking you out tonight will be good enough for me."

I skidded to a stop and bit my bottom lip.

"What?" Edward asked.

"Edward im working tonight." I sighed.

"Working as in a job?"

"Kinda."

He snorted.

"Where?"

"Um, Fresh Garden." I said rubbing the back of my neck.

"Oh. Wait! Doesnt Newton own that place?"

"Yes." I squeaked.

"You've got to be playing a damn joke on me Bella! Its Valentines day, not April fools day!"

I sighed heavily.

"Why?"

"Why what?"

"Why all of a sudden do you need a job?" He asked.

I shrugged. I didnt want to tell him that if I didnt have enough money because then he would insist that I take his. Then I would slap him.

"Wow good reason." He growled.

"You couldnt pick anywhere else to work for this insane idea?"

"No. My parents set it up for me."

He didnt like this at all. Haha. I know him so well. Note my sarcasm.

The rest of the day he was not happy either. He was very ... upset.

When he drove me home he was deep in concentration.

We pulled up to the hotel and I sighed.

"Im upset too." I said softly.

"Not as upset as I am." He answered shortly.

"Probably not. I love you and I'll see you later. Bye." I said and got out. He didnt drive away till I was already in the hotel.

I sighed and went up to my suite.

It took me an hour to get ready, I had my hair in a bun with loose strands hanging down nicely.

First impressions suck.

I grabbed my keys then went outside to my car.

************************

Work was busy tonight. I was a waitress, so I got to see all the in love couples sharing their happy freakin meals with one another.

I wanted to be with Edward. It was our first Valentines day together and I ruined it. That thought alone made my heart ache.

"What can I get you to drink?" I asked smiling politely at the elderly couple sitting in a red booth, a candle in the center.

"Well arent you a pretty young thing." The man said. I laughed and rolled my eyes.

"Shouldnt you be out with someone special tonight?" He asked.

"I should." I agreed.

"Hmm. No lucky guy your interested in?"

"No, I have someone. I love him alot. But I have to do what I have to do." I sighed.

"Well, he'll forgive you. I'll have a water." He smiled.

After 11:00 we all started cleaning up. We closed in a half hour.

I scooped around in the kitchen looking at stuff.

"Edwards not happy about this is he?" Angela asked. Did I forget to mention she worked here too? Along with Ben.

"No." I sighed.

"Good." Mike grumbled. Ben smacked him with a dish towel. He was a cook.

"Ben got anything good?" I asked.

He smiled and wiggled his eyebrows at Angela.

"Yeah."

"I meant food wise?" I laughed.

"Oh, Hmm. I have some chicken alfredo left, and a peice of chocolate raspberry cake." He shrugged.

"I'll take both to go." I smiled.

He laughed and put them in white to go boxes. I took raspberry sauce and drizzled it over the cake so it wrote: I love you.

"Thanks Ben. See ya!" I called to them and left out to my car.

I carefully placed the boxes in the passenger seat and got in turning the heat all the way up. It was freezing outside!

I stopped to get gas and I bought a blooming red rose.

I pulled up to Edwards appartment complex and searched for his car. Silver volvo. Check!

I grabbed both boxes and the rose and headed up to his floor number.

I grabbed the spare key from the plant outside his door and quietly opened it.

He wasnt in the living room so I went into the kitchen. He was standing with his back to me pouring himself a glass of water.

I quietly tiptoed behind him and sat at the island in the middle of the kitchen.

I placed the boxes on the counter and held the rose behind my back.

He gulped down the glass of water and turned around, then hee jumped about a foot in the air.

"God you scared the hell out of me!" He said.

I pursed my lips so I wouldnt laugh. I pulled the rose from behind my back and smiled slightly.

"Hungry?" I asked.

He shook his head from side to side sadly but he was smiling.

He took the rose and twirled it around in his fingers.

"Your unbelievable." He said.

I shrugged. He opened the boxes and chuckled when he saw the cake.

He poured the chicken alfredo onto a plate and grabbed a fork.

He pulled me into his lap and gave me a bite.

"I brought it for you." I objected.

"Eat it or I will force you too."

I giggled and ate the fork full of noodles.

After we ate dinner we ended up sharing the cake.

"Im not a big fan of sweets, but that was very good." He chuckled.

"Everybody loves sweets." I rolled my eyes.

He hovered on top of me on the couch so his whole body covered mine.

"You know what else I love?" He asked.

"What?"

"You."

"Really?"

"I do. I love you so much. More than anything in the whole universe." He smiled and kissed me passionatly.

"Does this mean im forgiven?" I asked once he pulled away.

"There was never anything to forgive."

I sighed and shook my head.

"Your unbelievable."
