How Did I Fall In Love With You

Chapter 24

Bella's POV

I felt the bright hot sun, hit my bare back. My naked body felt as if I was a sleep for some time now and I could feel the stiffness from staying in one place too much. I opened my eyes to the most flawless angelic face I have ever seen.

I still couldn't get over the fact that Edward was my husband. That he was mine to keep.

Its been a few days since the wedding and Edward surprised me with the honeymoon. He took me to Isle Esme which was an island that Carlisle had given to Esme in the early year of their marriage. The island was a little tropical island surround by nothing but water and the glowing sun. To be honest, the island was beautiful and it literally took your breath away.

"Good morning, love." Edward mumbled. I could still hear the sleep in his voice.

I gave him a kiss in his cheek and continued to kiss him all over his perfect figured face. I still couldn't get over the fact that every time I kissed Edward there were jolts of electricity going through my body. I loved the feeling that gave my body.

"I love it when you do that." he said opening his emerald green eyes.

I gave him a small smile and continued to kiss him, but this time I aimed for his soft lips. His lips were gently placed against mine and both our lips synced together. I placed my hand onto his hair and his hand was placed caressing my cheek.

"I love you." I told him breathless.

"I love you Bella." he said before kissing me again.

And we continued where we left off from the day before…

Days flew by too fast for me to even count. Before I knew it, it was our last night in the island and going back to the reality of the real world. It seems like it was yesterday that I met Edward and fall in love with him. When I was with him, time didn't seem consistent and all that mattered was that he was here with me. Edward wanted this to be an experience that I would never forget and surely it was.

The sun was setting down, making a picture perfect moment in the beach. Edward told me that he wanted to go to the beach and watch the sunset with me, and being me I could refuse him. We ended up walking down the beach, while the sun was beginning to go down, with our hands tight together. We sat down close to the blue ocean water, but not close enough to get wet. I sat between Edwards legs and I laid my back to him.

It was quiet, but not the type of silence that was awkward and disturbing. But the silence that were peaceful and relaxing. It was perfect. Everything in my life was now falling in the correct place and there was finally balance. I had everything I ever needed with me.

I turned my head towards Edward to see him watching the scenery carefully. It seems that he was trying really hard to memorize this moment and keep for forever. Edward noticed my stare and soon stared me down as well. His eyes were filled with so much love and passion, and I knew that they were meant for me.

I love Edward with my whole heart and life. He some how completed who I was and made me a better person. I know that he would always be there for me no matter what, and that he would love me.

I wrapped my hands onto Edwards and loved the feel of his skin next to mine. He played with my fingers and gave me occasional kisses on my neck and cheek.

"you know you look very beautiful tonight." Edward whispered in my ear. I could feel his lips close to my ear, only inches apart.

"you don't look bad yourself." I replied. That caused him to chuckle lightly and he gave me another light kiss on my head.

"Edward promise me something." I turned around to see his perfectly sculpted face.

"anything, my love." his velvet voice said.

He stared at my eyes directly, with so much love and passion. Edward offered me that crooked smile that I was in love with and gently stroked my cheek, trying to relax me a bit.

"promise me you will never leave me, Edward. I couldn't live a life without you."

"Bella, I promise I will never leave you. It would kill me to leave." he placed his forehead gently onto mine and I stared at his eyes.

"Edward I love you." I admitted before brushing my lips onto his.

Hw pulled too quickly away and said the three words I needed to hear.

"I love you."

We finally had all of our stuff that we packed, or should I say Alice packed, into the boat and made sure that we didn't accidentally leave anything. I was really going to miss this place. Even though its been only a small amount of days that I stayed here, it felt like there was a part of my life that was here.

"ready to go, love?" Edward wrapped is arms around me and gave me a light kiss on the lips.

"yeah, but I sure am going to miss this place."

"we could always come back and visit." he assured me.

I nodded my head and let the feeling of Edwards skin wrap around me.

"its time to go." Edward informed me.

I took a good last look before turning to see Edwards face. He gave me a small smile and lightly placed his lips on my head. I took his hand onto mine and was complete once again.

The trip back to Forks wasn't that bad. We rode in first class and I felt very relaxed and at peace. It was very spacious and gave me enough room to move my body around. I wanted to go back home and see the faces I have been missing, but time seemed to drag on. It felt like time never moved and I kept fidgeting in my seat, while Edward trying to tell me to calm down and that we would be there soon.

After god knows how long, we arrived at the air port. We exited the terminal, hand in hand, and I could already see the faces I've been missing.

Alice was jumping up and down trying to contain her excitement, but was not succeeding. Jasper was next to his girlfriend, and was smiling. Emmett was right next to the couple, and if it were possible, he looked more excited to see us than Alice. Rose was next to Emmett and also had a big smile glued on to her face. Carlisle and Esme were wrapped in each others arms waiting patiently.

I chuckled at the family that I had. To be honest they were not the typical family. They're not perfect, but they were the perfect ones for me. Each of them had a certain charm that stood out from the rest and were their own personal self.

"Bella! Edward!" Alice's high pitched voice screamed when she saw us.

They all hurdled towards us, attacking us with their hugs and kisses. I was taken away from Edward by both Alice and Rose, being attacked by their hugs, squeals, and bombarded questions. After I finally felt that the greetings and the screaming was over, everyone finally calmed down.

"oh Bella! I've missed you so much." Alice gusted and over took me to another one of her friendly hugs.

"yeah, Bells. There was literally nothing to do, while you and Edward were away." Rose admitted.

"yeah, I couldn't even go to the mall and shop because I didn't have anyone to play Bella Barbie with." Alice said sadly.

"its alright, I'm back so you guys don't have to suffer anymore." I told them sarcastically, while rolling my eyes at them.

"so how was the honeymoon?" Rose asked lifting her perfect eyebrows.

I seriously had no idea what to tell them. I knew that they want each and every tiny detail of what had happened, but to be honest, I was kind of embarrassed to tell them. I felt my cheeks start to blush different shades of red.

"umm.. It was very memorable, and I will never forget it." I hoped my answer would satisfy them long enough to pull the subject off until we were alone.

"ahh, I see. Looks like our little innocent Bella, isn't so innocent anymore." Rose joked while laughing at herself.

"Rose! Shh! Please shut up!" I whispered almost screaming at her.

"okay, okay." she sang while nodding her head at my direction.

Jasper came to the view and wrapped his arms lovingly around Alice. I could feel the spark and jolt go through them, the same one that goes through Edward and I.

"Hey, Bells. Its good to see you again." he said looking at me.

"hey, Jasper. Its good to see you too." I replied.

At the corner of my eye, I saw Esme's delicate body come towards my direction with Carlisle by her side.

"Hello, Bella." she greeted me and gave me a motherly hug.

"hi, Esme." I mumbled in her hair.

"oh sweetie, its really good to see you again. We've missed you and Edward a lot. The house seems so quite without the two of you." she smiled, flashing me her perfect set of teeth.

"yes, we've missed you guys a lot too. Esme thank you so much for letting us borrow the island for the honeymoon. It was perfect."

"oh, honey don't worry about it. Think of it as a wedding present from Carlisle and myself." I smiled at her widely.

"Bella, its good to have you back." Carlisle said after Esme gave me her welcome.

"thank you Carlisle. Its great to be back." I answered him.

Carlisle just offered me a sweet and simple smile in return.

"Bella Button! I missed my little sister!" Emmett yelled as he tackled me with a hug.

I had no choice but to hug him back. I never realized that Emmett had the biggest body I have ever seen. I couldn't even close my hands around him.

"I've missed you too Emmy."

"god, the house was so boring! There was nothing to do! I felt like I was going to die of boredom " he whined on.

I just giggled uncontrollably and patted his back lightly.

"its alright Emmett."

He let go, so that I could go back to the use of my own two feet. Being me, I stumbled a few times but caught myself before I could fall and do anymore damage to myself. I felt a pair of warm, muscular arms glued to my waist and my back tight against his chest.

"I missed you." the velvet voice whispered only inches away from my ear.

"Edward, its only been a few minuets."

"I know but I just cant stand being away from you." he said kissing my head.

I turned my body around so that I could face, the love of my life. I rested my hands on his neck, and feeling the sensation that I was meant to be here. He lifted my chin so that I was no looking directly at him. Now our faces, our lips, were only a few inches apart and I wanted to close the gap between us. Before I could even think, Edward kissed me with his soft, silky lips and I was once again lost.

"okay, okay! Enough with the PDA! Its burning my innocent eyes." Alice complained shaking her hands above her head.

"then don't watch, Alice." Edward mumbled before kissing me again with his lips.

"okay, that's enough Edward. Now lets go. We have to get home, so we could eat the dinner I have prepared!" Esme interrupted.

I blushed once again, and took Edwards hand in mine.

Dinner was an eventful evening. I seriously think that the Cullen family would make a really good reality show. The dinner was full of the constant arguments and jokes of Alice, Emmett, and Edward. They kept passing and joking around each other, making the rest of us at the table laugh our butts off.

Esme made the best dinner, which was steak with the combination of mash potato's and salad. It was the best meal, I have ever had since I could remember.

After dinner we all went our separate way for the night. Alice had gone to the front door to say goodnight to Jasper, but by the looks of it they were taking their time. Emmett had went over to Rosalie's apartment for the night to spend sometime with her, by watching some movies. Esme had went to the living room and lost herself with a book. Carlisle had went to his study, assuming that he had work that was left undone.

Edward and I decided that it was time to call it a night and try to unpack everything from the trip. Ever since Edward and I got married, Alice had moved all my things from my old room into Edwards room. I told her that she honestly didn't have to do that, but she kept telling me she insisted on doing so. Alice believed that Edward had a really small closet and the things she had bought me, would simply not fit in there, so she made my old room into my own personal closet.

When I finally had everything, put away, I stripped from my travel clothes and put on the silky Victoria Secret pajama I had on. I cleaned my face, and brushed both my teeth and hair before snuggling to the bed with Edward.

"good night, love." Edward whispered in my ear wrapping his arms around me pulling me closer to his body.

"good night, Edward I love you." I said before everything blacked out.

I woke up by the sound of the annoying alarm clock, and I knew what that meant. I tried to find the snooze button by hitting my hand everywhere and finally I heard the clock silence. Ugh, I knew what this meant. I needed to get up from the bed, from my loving husbands arms and go to school. I knew I should have waited until graduation to tie myself to Edward, but I simply couldn't wait any longer. Besides I only had a week of school left before the big graduation ceremony, so there was really no point in waiting.

"mhmm.. Love, do you have to go?" Edward asked burring his face onto the crook of my neck.

"sadly, yes I do. There's only a week left until the grad, so I have to go." I replied.

"I'm going to miss you a lot." he admitted, opening his perfect set of emerald eyes.

"I'm going to miss you too, but its only for a few hours. I'll be here in your arms before you know it."

"its too long of wait." he argued.

"I'm sorry, but I really have to get up or I'm going to be late." I tried squirming out of his grip, but I didn't even get an inch off away from him.

"your not going anywhere." he said tightening his grip on me.

"Edward I really have to go, I'm sorry. How about I'll give you a kiss, if you let me go." I countered.

He thought for a moment and smiled, the crooked smile I love. He moved his face closer to mine leaving a small space between us. I happily closed the gap and aimed for his perfect lips.

"okay, you win." he said taking defeat.

I just giggled and went to the bathroom. I took a quick shower and dressed in my comfortable outfit. I really didn't feel like dressing up today, so I got a pair of skinny jeans and a plain grey v neck with a black jacket over, knowing that it would be cold. I matched the outfit with some black boots Alice got me from our little shopping trips. When I was finally satisfied with the way I looked, I went back the room and saw Edward fast asleep in the bed. I knew he was really tired and he needed his rest. I decided not to wake him, knowing that it was too early for him to get up. Instead I wrote him a note, saying that I took his beloved Volvo to school and would be back as soon as I can. I pecked his lips, forming a smile from his face, and left.

Edward POV

I woke up with an empty bed, missing the warmth that Bella gave me. I sighed, she was probably at school by now. I got up from the bed to find a note on the night stand.

Edward

Sorry, I didn't want to wake you up. You looked so peaceful and I didn't want to disturb that. I'm on my way to school and I took the Volvo.

I'll be back before you could miss me!

Remember that I love you with my whole heart.

-Bella

I smiled at the note. Typical Bella. She was so perfect, so flawless, in her own way. She made me feel what I didn't know existed inside of me. She completed who I was and she made every day better by just being there with me. She was what I was looking for, and I couldn't believe that an angel like that was all mine to keep.

I got up from the bed and went down the kitchen, trying to figure out what to eat for breakfast. I looked through the pantry and fridge but settled down with plain cereal and milk. I ate in silence, until my father came down as well, getting ready to go to work.

"morning Edward." he greeted while getting a cup of coffee.

"morning dad." I said after my mouth was free from all traces of food.

"so, I'm assuming Bella went to school?"

"yeah she left, awhile ago."

"oh, I see."

"umm.. Dad?"

"yes, Edward."

"well, I was thinking about supporting myself and Bella on our own, like a real married couple. I want to be able to provide for her, get her anything she needs. I really love her, dad, and I want to take the responsibility of taking care of Bella."

"oh, well that's a very big decision to make Edward. Are you sure about it?" he asked pushing his eyebrows together.

"yes, a hundred percent. I want to get a stable job, and provide money for the both us. Umm.. Do you think that I could, apply for a job at the hospital? I took some collage courses a few years ago." I asked.

Carlisle was shocked with what I had said, but a smile formed in his face. Different emotions filled his face, that I couldn't quite figure out, but I knew that he was happy with what I have become.

"that would be a great idea son. But please your mother and I would be happy to help you and Bella any day. We are always going to be here for you. I'm very proud of you Edward." he told me placing a hand on my shoulder.

"thank you dad. For everything."

"your welcome. Now I'll get you some of the paper work to fill out tonight and you could start as soon as you could."

"thanks again dad." I smiled widely at him.

He smiled again before walking out of the garage door, towards his beloved black Mercedes.

I couldn't believe it! I was going to have a job and I was finally going to be able to support both Bella and myself. I could give her whatever her heart wanted. Bella was the most important person in my whole existence and just as long as I had her, everything would be alright.

"Edward! Edward!" Alice sang while running down the stairs.

She was still dressed in her pajama's with the Homer cozy slippers I gave her last Christmas. Alice said that she wouldn't be caught dead in those slippers, but I guess she changed her mind about that. She had her hair messed up and it looked exactly like a haystack, but I would tell her that, knowing that she would hit me. And Alice could punch.

"yes, Allie?" I answered her.

"hey, how do you feel about shopping today?" she asked in her high pitched voice.

"umm.. I'm not really in the mood for it today, sorry Alice. Maybe next time."

"Edward come on! You need knew clothes. I mean you've had that shirt for quite sometime now, and look its beginning to rip! And, no offence but what your wearing is fashion suicide. You need new clothes pronto!" she kept whining on.

"Hey, I wouldn't be talking! You're the one wear Homer from the Simpons on your feet!" I countered.

"their comfy, and you gave them to me, smart ass. Now come on lets go shopping."

"Alice, no. why don't you ask Jasper or Rose to go with you?" I asked.

"they had work today, so nothing."

"mhmm.. I'm really tired from the whole honeymoon, sorry Alice." I turned my attention back to my breakfast.

"ugh, you suck Edward." she said pouting before walking out of the room.

I just kept a smirk on my face, and put the items I used back to their proper place. When I was finally done, I honestly had no idea what I was going to do today.

BELLA POV

School dragged on and I swear I was about to die of boredom. The year was coming to a quick end and the teachers had nothing better to do, then pile up useless work for us the students. I was patiently waiting for the bell to ring, but my patience was wearing thin.

It was hard to be away from Edward. Even if it was for a few hours, it felt like a whole eternity, that I was away from him. My heart ached and I couldn't stand the feeling. I needed him here with me, here to hold me and kiss me once in a while.

Sigh. I wish he was here with me.

Ring! Ring!

Finally! The last bell of the day rang and I was out of my seat faster than I thought possible. I walked fast towards the Volvo, eager to see my perfect husbands face. I entered the car, and drove home as fast as the speed limit would allow me.

I finally relaxed when I got to the familiar road to the Cullen mansion, knowing that I was going to see Edward. I parked the Volvo in the humongous garage in the mansion, and walked in. There I was attacked by my loving brother in- law Emmett.

"Bella! Your back soon!" Emmett said squeezing me so tight that I couldn't even breathe.

"oh, Emmett. Cant- Breathe." I told him with the low amount of air supply I had.

He chuckled and let me go. Emmett than just patted my head, like a grown up would a five year olds, and gave me a smile.

"thanks, Em. For you know, not killing me." I joked.

He rolled his eyes playfully at me and patted my head once more.

"oh silly Bella." he muttered.

"yeah, silly me." we both walked to the kitchen, wanting to get some drinks. I pulled out a coke bottle from the fridge and drank it greedily.

"So where's Edward?" I asked after a few minuets of silence.

"umm.. I think he's in the shower right now, but you could join him if you want. I know he wouldn't mind." he told me raising his eye brows suggestively.

"thanks Emmett, but I think I'll pass. We're saving that for tonight." I replied smirking.

"eww! Bella! that's gross! I don't want to know what you and my brother do!" Emmett was now yelling at me, so loud that I felt the house vibrate.

"hey, you brought the subject up." I took another sip of the coke and took a glance his way. Emmett had a sour face on, like he had just swallowed a hand full of lemons.

"ugh, again Bells, eww." he repeated.

"did I hear my beautiful wife is finally home?" Edward came from the corner, dressed in a pair of jeans and a blue button up shirt. His hair was still wet and messy as always. He looked so handsome, without even trying.

"yes, I'm back. I told you I would be back before you could miss me." I made my way over to him and wrapped my petite arms around his waist.

"ahh, I've missed you too much, love." he pulled me closer to his body so that there was no longer any space between us.

"I know, I missed you too. I missed you a lot." I admitted resting my head onto his shoulder.

He stroked my hair and kissed me head, lovingly.

"okay, that's enough for my eyes. I'm out of here, before things get out of hand." Emmett mocked walking fast out of the kitchen.

"finally, he's gone!" I joked.

"I heard that Bella." Emmett said still in hearing distance.

"you were suppose to." I mumbled.

I heard Emmett smirk and make his way towards the stairs. He was probably going to call Rosalie or maybe annoy Alice. Typical Emmett.

"so how was your day, love?" Edward said catching my attention once again.

"it was very long and boring. I don't think I could endure another week of that."

"its alright, besides graduation is just around the corner. I know you could do it Bella" he kissed my hair gently once more.

I lifted my head off of his shoulder and looked straight up at his eyes.

"you know, I really missed your kisses today." I said honestly.

"really? I was missing yours as well" he cupped my cheek and gave me a passionate kiss.

The familiar way of his lips onto mine were unexplainable. A feeling I would never forget. He brushed his lips against mine, expecting him to pull away, but he didn't. He kissed my lips hungrily, needing more. I broke the kiss gasping for air.

"guess what love?" he said stoking my cheek.

"what is that?"

"I got a job." he replied casually.

I jumped into his arms in excitement. I was so happy for him! I knew that he always felt the need to take care and provide for me, but I assured him that I could take care of myself. But, being Edward, he argued with me and said that he would get a job for starters.

"really? I'm happy for you Edward!" I screamed.

He just chuckled and held me in his arms.

"thank you Bella. That means a lot to me."

"oh my gosh, I'm proud of you Edward! Where did you get a job?"

"I took a medical course when I was in collage and I talked to Carlisle about it. He said that I could apply and start as soon as I want to."

I pulled him into a hug and gushed into his arms. I couldn't believe that Edward had become so selfless and responsible for me.

"that's wonderful." I whispered.

He pulled away and took my face onto his hands.

"Bella I love you, and I did it for you."

"Edward I love you, so much." I said before he kissed my lips again.
