Bella Swan. It was like music to my ears. I smiled politely to her as she followed me into my office. As I sat behind my desk she quickly got to work. Pulling out a tape measurer and a camera, she set to taking pictures and making notes. As she bent down to align the measurer I couldn't help but look at how her dress formed to her body. She had beautiful legs. They seemed toned and strong.
"She must work out" I thought as I watched her rise back to her feet.
Within twenty minutes her job was complete and she was pulling me out of my daze.
"Excuse me? Mr. Cullen. I'm finished now, and I know how much your mother hates tardiness. I'll just excuse myself. You look somewhat preoccupied."
"Ms. Swan!" I seemed to shout a bit loudly.
"I was just thinking I have a benefit to attend tonight for my mother and no one to accompany me, I was thinking maybe you would like to join?"
WOW! Did I really just say that? OUT LOUD? I had never been so forward with a woman in all my life... I actually never had to be and now I was even sweating as silence filled the room.
"Mr. Cullen. I would love to but in all honesty you don't even know me, and with such short notice, I would not be able to dress accordingly."
"Nonsense I will send a dress on loan, and will need you ready by 8:30. It would be my honor to have someone as lovely as you on my arm. Just leave your address with Susan at the desk and I will take care of the rest. I wont take no for an answer."
"Well since you put it like that, sure, I would love to go with you. I'll see you at 8:30 then. Goodbye Mr. Cullen."
"Please call me Edward."
"Goodbye Edward."
