Ok, so it's a time skip and in this story to be a lawyer you only have to go to college for 4 years… :)
Bella's point of view
5 years later
Edward and I graduated from college with our parents there, crying and hugging all over us.
We graduated together with our Law Degree.
My Uncle Jim on my mom's side set up interviews for both of us down in the city not too far from the apartment.
I always dreamt of having an office next to Edwards and working beside him. Well we both got in. My office is not next to Edwards but its goes, mine, some other dudes, Edwards. So, I'm pretty damn happy.
Edward has shot up in this company. It is owned by mu uncle's friend George, who, absolutely loved Edward. Edward is a few heads higher than me when it comes to the company but we still get paid the same, etc.
Edward has also never lost a court case. I haven't either but, he has dealt with more.
Edward is close to being not really manager but something like that. We're just waiting patiently for his promotion.
If you think any of that was a shock, you should've been there the day I told Edward I wanted a baby.
It was about two months ago, in December. I was lying in bed propped up on the headboard thinking, thinking about having a baby with Edward. How it would have his eyes, his wild unruly sexy hair, his smarts.
Edward on the other hand had no idea what I was thinking about, he was just kissing my neck. I was only in my underwear and bra so…
Edward must have sensed I was distracted and stopped.
"What's wrong sweetheart?" He asked looking into my eyes.
I felt my face heat up and looked away.
"Nothing." I reached up to kiss him but he groaned softly and hid his face in my neck.
"Love." He said disapprovingly. He knew something was on my mind, and I wasn't telling him what.
"Baby." I mimicked.
He chuckled and peeked his eyes up at me.
"Tell me." He poked me in the tummy making me giggle.
"Well…If I told you I wanted something-"
"Then you can have it. Whatever it is." He interrupted.
"It's not something you can buy-"
"It's not a divorce is it?"
"What? No!" I slapped my hand to my head.
"You know what, never mind." I laughed and tried to kiss him on his neck.
"No." He sat up and looked at me.
"Tell me." He insisted.
"Ok." I took a deep breath. Then everything rushed out.
"Do you remember when we were in the coffee house the other day before work? Ok, so there was this couple and they looked so happy. They looked all lovey dovey in love, as we always do, but we are so worse."
"Bella, doll face, I really don't understand what you're getting at."
"Edward, do you remember what the woman was holding that they were smiling at?"
He shook his head.
"It was tiny, adorable, soft and cute."
"Uh…" He trailed off shaking his head.
"A baby! Edward! They had a stinking baby!"
He sat back and stared at me for almost five minutes.
"You want … a baby?" He said slowly.
I nodded biting my lower lip.
He let out a long heavy breath.
"Alright, I know its stupid and all and you probably don't want one. It was just a thought. I just thought-"
He stopped me by kissing me hard.
"You are utterly unbelievable. To think that I don't want a baby, especially with you. My gorgeous innocent wife. Bella, haven't we talked about having kids before? I said yes."
"I know." I sighed.
"Although I'm not sure I want to share you yet." He lifted up and nibbled on my neck.
"So… are we having a baby?" I asked in a whisper.
"Yes."
"Really?" I squeaked.
He smiled sideways.
"Oh my gosh." I gasped and tackled him.
That was two months ago, as I said. We stopped using birth control, condoms, etc. No such luck.
No baby. And we've tried more than a few times.
Today was February 2nd. Groundhog Day. Ha ha.
Today I had a doctor's appointment to discuss why I can seem to get pregnant.
The doc said I needed to relax, be stress free. I didn't have any stress! Not that I knew of…
He also said that it could've been because we were coming off of birth control. Usually it doesn't take this long.
Now, we were at work and I was heading my way over to Edwards's office.
I knocked on his half open door, under the gold plated sign that said Mr. Cullen. Funny part was that mine said Mrs. Cullen.
He looked up from the folder and papers on his mahogany desk and smiled at me.
"Are you too busy for lunch or do you want me to come back later?" I teased.
"I don't know." He whistled lowly, leaned back in his leather chair, and crossed his arms behind his head.
"Fine." I shrugged and started walking back out the door.
"Bella!" He growled. I giggled and stepped in his office, shutting the door behind me.
I walked to his desk and stood in front of his chair that he was sitting in. He stood up and smiled at me.
"What do you want for lunch?" I asked.
He lifted me up onto the edge of his desk by my hips and stepped as close as he could.
"I don't know. You look pretty tasty." He kissed my lips deeply. His hands crept up the side of my tight pin skirt dress; it was black from the bust down. The bust up was a dark red, silky, and the buttons were undone, showing my white lace tank top under it.
I didn't like to be wearing these suits that I've seen people wear on TV that were lawyers. I wanted to look pretty or sexy at my job. But appropriate. So, I loved these little outfits.
I didn't ever wear my hair in a bun, I couldn't stand it. I wanted it loose.
"I'm hungry." I pouted as he kept kissing me.
"I can't believe you'd rather eat than kiss me!" He said in a teasing way.
I pouted out my bottom lip.
"Alright, little girl lets go."
"I am not little! I'm only two months younger than you." I hopped off his desk and stumbled into his chest.
"Too me, you are little." He took my hand and led me out of his office.
"C'mon babe." I said and rolled my eyes.
He chuckled.
"Going out to lunch?" Greg the assistant at the desk in the lobby asked.
"Nope, they're going to go…" I turned around and gasped at Nick.
Nick was pretty much Edwards best bud. Ever since we started working here, he's been a great help.
He still loved Em and Jazz though they were gone.
"Shut up!" I gasped.
Nick pounded fists with Edward and rolled his eyes.
"Don't take things to seriously, little lawyer." He teased and patted me on the back.
"Whatever. Edward baby, I'm hungry." I groaned.
"Let's go get some food." He laughed and slapped Nick on the back.
We ate at a little Italian restaurant on this coast.
"George told me that I can get off early today. I have some stuff to do…" He trailed off sipping his water.
"What stuff?" I asked.
"Just errands." He shrugged.
"Anyway. I'll drive home after you finish eating then you can keep the Volvo , finish up at work, then come home."
I hmmphed.
"What?" Edward asked.
"Nothing." I sighed. I didn't want to be at work without him.
Edward took my hand from across the table and kissed it tenderly.
"Trust me."
"Huh?"
"Just, say you trust me."
"I trust you."
"Good."
After dropping Edward off me went back to work till about 6.
At home the door was locked; it usually wasn't, when Edward was home.
I used my key and walked inside. My phone rang right as I got in.
I answered it, it was Alice.
"Hey babe." She chirped.
It was dark in the apartment, but my car was in the parking lot, so I knew Edward was here. Maybe he fell asleep.
"What's up Alice?"
"I haven't talked to you in forever."
"I know. I miss you guys. Have you talked to Rose lately?" I asked flipping my keys onto the kitchen counter.
"I just got off with her. She's doing well, and wants you to call her ASAP!"
Alice talked my ear off until I went into our bedroom. It was dim in there. When I walked in, I stepped on something. I looked down and saw that it was a rose petals. There were a bunch of them, all over the floor, bed, and dresser.
"Edward?" I called out looking around dazed at the thirty or so candles around the room that was what was lighting up the room.
"Are you listening?" Alice asked through the phone.
"Yeah. Alice, can you hang on for a second?"
She sighed.
"Edward?" I called for a second time.
He stepped out of the bathroom and smiled sideways at me.
He walked over and took my face gently in his hands and kissed me deeply. God, did he taste good.
He took my hands and led me over to the bed. He sat me down then bent on his knees undoing my heels.
I covered the phone with my hand.
"What are you doing? And what is this?" I whispered.
He didn't say anything. He just reached behind me and started unzipping my dress.
"So, I told Rose that he needed to ask her soon or else he was going to regret it-"
Alice kept talking on and on about, I think, Emmett proposing to Rose.
"Uh huh." I mumbled in response, even thought I wasn't paying attention.
Edward slipped my dress off, he motioned for me to flip over onto my stomach, and I did so.
He grabbed a bottle of something and skirted it on my back.
It was very warm and smelt like strawberries.
His big strong hands massaged it onto my back.
"Alice I have to go." I said uneasily as he rubbed it down the back of my thighs.
"No! I haven't talked to you in a week!"
I groaned into the pillow.
His hands traveled up under my bra and popped the little latch on it. I gasped.
"Alice-"She kept talking over me.
He massaged my shoulders then covered my neck with his lips, with the oily stuff.
"I need to go Alice-"
"Isabella Marie-"I hung up on her.
"Finally." Edward said in an amused tone next to my ear.
"Uh huh. Now. Tell me what's going on." I moaned.
"The doctor said you needed to relax. Are you relaxed?" He put more hot oil on my legs.
"Sort of." I squeaked.
He rubbed my ankles then led the oil all the way up my body, his warm hands pressing all over.
"How about now?"
"Yes." I groaned into the pillow.
"Good, then my technique worked."
"Technique?"
"Well, if this relaxes you. Then we can have a baby."
"What if it's not the relaxation thing, what if it's me?" I started tensing again.
He rubbed my neck.
"Shh. Relax angel." I was too much in some oily, strawberry daze to say anything about his new nickname.
