"Cause you'll be in my heart
Yes, you'll be in my heart
From this day on
Now and forever more
You'll be in my heart
No matter what they say
You'll be here in my heart, always "
You'll Be in My heart by Phil Collins softly played on Edward's Volvo's radio. I found myself lost in thoes words.
Every time Phil Collins sang it whiskes me back to sitting in an Isle, eating a bag of marshmallows. When a young attractive stranger came and, well sent me to jail.
"What's so funny?" asked Edward.
"I'm Remembering." I glanced at Edward, he smirked at my vagueness, but played along.
"Remembering what per-say." I giggled, "Per-say? Who talks like that?"
Edwards face softened, "My father." I instantly gulped...dinner with the parents part two...I always hated sequels.
Edwards eyes flashed a worried glance at me, "Hey? You ok."
I blushed and bit my lip, "I'm nervous." He faked gasped, "Bella Swan? Nervous? No...its not possible." I rolled my eyes and looked out the window.
The song ended and silence filled the car.
"Albertson's," I murmured, "Albertson's." I saw Edwards grin widen, "You were remembering the first time we met. I was angry at you. It was the one day that Emmett didn't wake me up and I had to cover another persons shift..." He snickered, "I had no patients, and it just made it ten times worse when I found out you went to Jail."
I laughed, " Remember when I teased you maliciously in front of your parents...did they ever figure out that I was talking about you the entire time?"
Edward slowly pulled into a driveway and turned off the engine, "Well, why don't we find out?"
I bit my lip...why not?

Dinner was a...smash.
My mom and dad where thrilled to see Bella again. Since last time she had to run out to Billings.
They had bombarded her with question after question, which answered truthfully but always with a hint of sarcasm.
My mom had just served the desert and Bella and were in deep conversation about something. My dad and I were discussing about how I could apply for an intern job at the hospital and really help save peoples lives.
This thought made me sad...Bella and My time would practically end...I would have to quit Albertson's and go full time...I would never be able to see her unless...well we lived together...But that's crazy right...I mean we have been dating uh 4 months and I have known her for 5 so...ya that would be moving too quickly. '
I have to stop thinking about this. So I tuned into the girls conversation.
My mom had a stubborn look on her face, "I just can't see it Bella...how can he beat him?"
Bella raised her eyebrow, "Esme, Mark Harmon can beat Chuck Norris, so he could easily beat Carry Grant..and hes dead."
"Well Dear, how could he be number one on your list? Carry Grant I understand..but Mark Harmon?"
Bella's voice became Defensive, "Have you ever scene the man, Just the thought of him is enough to make you swoon."
Mom reached over and patted her on the shoulder, "Sure honey."
Bella pouted. I reached over and gently picked up her hand and kissed it. She turned and gave me the most adoring and loving look I have ever scene.
It all made sense now, I was going to ask her...it was the perfect oppertunity...not now but later.
The night progressed and Bella and I eventually left. My mom and dad told Bella she was welcome anytime day or night. She blushed at this and accepted while thanking them for their hospitality over and over again.
The drive home was quite...unnaturally so. But Bella looked content and she rested her hand on my leg the entire ride.
I pulled up to her appartment, it was now or never.
"Bella, " I started but before I could finish she had jumped across the seat and and kissed me so hard I thought that I was going to die.
I broke away from the kiss smiling, "What was that for?"
She just smiled, "You are cuter than Mark Harmon." She kissed me again, "But not as good as a kisser."
And with that She hopped out of the car, walked up to her door. Spun around and winked at me. She then disappeared behind closed doors.
Oh God Cullen...what have you gotten yourself into.

-Later the next day-
I looked incredulously at Alice, "Wait? What you want a grand challenge?" I felt fear slowly building up within me. These challenges were what kept Edward and my friends together...but also we have grown together and don't need silly challenges to keep us together.
Edward rubbed my hand soothingly as if reading my mind, "Would it be the last challenge?" He murmured softly.
Alice shook her little pixie head at us, "No. I think the challenges will go with us until our grave." Rose snickered, "Ya so get back to the whole grand challenge thing."
A devilish and evil smile spread across Alice's face.
Uhoh...this could not be good.
"We all have to create or stimulate a fun, group activity that we will all enjoy and then we will nominate the winner and we will do whatever they want for a day.
I suddenly had a flash of Alice winning...a all day shopping spree. Store and more stores. Blood and tears. Mine.
Blood from my feet..tears and begging to stop.
I shuddered and Edward gave me a quizzical look.
"You alright?" He whispered into my ear.
"I was having a personal nightmare."
He raised an eyebrow and a cute confused expression clouded his face, "What?"
"I was dreaming that I was in bed with Mark Harmon and then I woke up and it was you."
His face palled and eyes shown with hurt. But when I started smirking he reached over and Gibbs slapped me.
"HEY!" I shouted, and then began pouting.
"Don't Hey me, Missy, you are so cruel sometimes." It was at that precise moment that I realized that we were the only one talking and four people were staring at us with stupid smirks all over their faces.
I elbowed Edward, "Owww! What was that for?" I tilted my head towards the group and he shut up and again gave me a quizical stare saying 'why the hell are they staring at us like that'.
"What?" I snapped.
All four of them just shrugged and resumed talking.
"So are you in for the challenge." I looked around and sized up my prey..ya I could totally win this.
"I'm in." Edward snorted, "Well if Bella's in, I'm in."
Wait...Edward snorted?
Emmett stated in a mocking tone, "Well if Eddies in, I'm in."
Rose smacked him, "Me too."
Jasper just stared at us, "Why do you even ask...since Alice was the one to come up with the idea and I am dating her...what do you think the answer will be."
Emmett groaned, "Dude you are so whipped."
Jasper glared at Em, "Shut it dude."
Em laughed, "What it is so true."
Jasper laughed, "This coming from the man who has gone to the opera for his girlfriend? I mean you have to draw the line somewhere."
Edward turned and gaped at Emmett, "You went to the Opera?"
Emmett glared at Edward, "Don't even get me started on you Mister. Oh the stories we could tell."
At this I perked up, stories?
Edward jumped out of his seat at AppleBees, "I think its time to go, Bella, we have a lot of planning to do for this shindig."
shindig?
Really, Edward, Really?
I was pulled out of my seat and moved out behind Edward, I turned my head around and called back to my friends, "See you later guys." Then I followed behind my beautiful boyfriend.
YEY!
So sorry about the long wait was at Gonzaga for a volleyball camp...fun.
So shorter chapter but next chapter will be VERY VERY LONG...like maybe 3, 000-4000 words!
I am going to do all the major challenges!
SO please review and tell me what you think or any suggestions for challenges now or in the future.
Thanks for all who have been helping me with this story..I really appreciate it!
