A/n: Let's see what Edward's been up to, shall we?
The Next Day
EPOV
I pulled up into the driveway of what I hoped was Bella's house and parked the truck. Her car wasn't in the driveway so I got out and stretched my legs.
I walked up to the porch of the quaint house and looked around. I felt like I should at least knock on the door and attempt to see if they were home.
I pulled my phone out of my pocket when no one answered the door but unfortunately I had packed my charger in a box, so my phone was dead.
I sat on the porch and figured I'd just wait it out. I'd been sitting there for about fifteen minutes when a jeep pulled up behind my moving van.
A big hulky guy got out and eyed me for a few minutes before he came over to me, "Can I help you?"
"Oh, um, I'm waiting for Bella and Kendall to get home." I answered and watched him eye me before he crossed his arms over his chest. He tried to intimidate me and it worked.
"Who are you?" He asked in a deep baritone.
"Edward..." I stuck out my hand, "Edward Cullen."
He stuck his hand out and grasped mine, "It's about damn time you showed up. But, you do realize that you missed her?" His comment led me to believe that I had missed something in our conversation.
"Missed her?" I asked.
"Yeah dude, her and little bit flew to Phoenix yesterday morning to go see you." He said as he sat down next to me on the porch.
"Wait...what?" I asked and ran a hand through my hair. She flew to Arizona to see me?
"Bella and Kendall flew to Phoenix yesterday morning to surprise you...but I guess the surprise is on them that you weren't there. Wait...why are you here dude? And, what's with the moving truck?" He asked as he eyed me, curiously.
"Oh...um...I was going to surprise her by moving here. My brother accepted a new job in Seattle so I helped him and his wife move up there last week. Once they got all settled in I decided to move to Forks...I've even got a new job that starts in two weeks." I explained to him.
"Oh shit! Bella's gonna flip!" He exclaimed.
"Not to be rude but who are you?" I asked suddenly worried that this was like a boyfriend or ex-husband of Bella's.
"Emmett McCarty. Pleased to meet ya, dude." He said with a smile.
Just as we started to talk more about my plans and how I got here a very familiar silver Toyota Corolla pulled up the drive.
"I'm out of here...good luck." Emmett said and clapped me on the back.
I stood up and watched as Bella's eye grew wide and I could hear Kendall squealing in the car.
"Edward?" Bella asked as she got out of her car.
"Surprise!" I exclaimed and threw up my hands.
A/n: SURPRISE:):):)
