The Learning Curve: Chapter 126
Rosalie Hale's House
Waking up next to Edward in the morning felt so familiar. Warm and snug under the covers with him, shielding from the cool breeze that came through the window, I was insanely impatient to marry him.
When he stirred awake, he found me watching him and smiled like that was completely non-creepy.
"So good to wake up with you," he mumbled, rolling onto his side and rubbing his nose against mine. "Every morning should start with Bella."
"Soon it will," I reminded him as I snuggled into his arms. I pecked him on the lips.
"I can't wait," he said wistfully.
"I was thinking about something before you woke up," I told him, winding one of my legs between his. "That honeymoon you were planning? I think we should drive."
"Really?" he grinned. "It'll take a few days. And we'll mostly be cooped up in the car."
I shrugged. "We'll be able to see so much of the country, though. And I can think of worse things than being cooped up in a car with you."
Edward nodded. "We could even cut through Canada. It'll be nice for our wedding night, too. We can just drive to Seattle and stay in a hotel instead of getting on a plane…"
"So cross-country it is?"
"It'll be fantastic," he nodded.
Edward and I only had a little time to ourselves after that before Rosalie came banging on the door, insisting we strip down the bed and then go downstairs for breakfast. It was tough to part with Edward yet again, knowing I'd have to go two more months without the luxury of sharing a bed with him, but I hoped the time would go quickly.
A/N: Sorry, it's just a short one today. I'm not feeling so well. Had a fever when they took my temperature at the doctor this morning. :( On the bright side, I might get to take a sick day...and then I can lay in bed and write fic. *crosses fingers*
