Bella:
"I love you."
Shit. Mine and Edward's eyes lock, panic evident in both. Isn't it too soon for the first 'I love you'? I hope not. I don't think so. Edward thinks so, though. That much is clear.
"Forget I said anything," Edward quickly says. No. What if I don't want to? What if I want to say it back?
"What?" I choke out, close to tears.
"No, don't cry, Bella. Just forget about it, ok? I know it's too soon for me to be saying things like that, it just slipped out. I didn't mean it," Edward says, possible in hopes to reassure me. It just makes me cry even more.
"You d-didn't m-m-meanit!?" The end part of my sentence is all meshed together in one big wail.
"Uh…no?" Edward replies.
"So you don't love me?" I try to calm down while wiping away some of my tears.
"No…I…I mean…you got upset…so I took it back…and now you're crying even more?" Edward splutters, looking completely lost.
"Have you ever heard of happy tears?" I huff, hands on my hips despite the fact we're sat down.
"Wait, does that mean you were crying happily when I said I didn't mean it?" Edward asks, looking confused and scratching his head.
"No! You idiot! I was scared at first; of course, we're still in an early relationship. But before I could say anything, you were taking it back!" I hit him in the chest because of his idiocy.
"What were you going to say, then?" Edward inquires, rubbing the spot on his chest that I hit.
"That…that I, um, I love you too." Edward quickly latches his lips onto mine, kissing me hurriedly.
We have to stop kissing when we reach the hotel, sneaking in through the door at the side of the building. When we reach the hotel room, however, Edward wastes no time in pushing me up against the wall.
I love him so much.
A/N: What did you think of the 'I love you' chapter? :D
Most of you guessed correctly that Edward was the first to say it!
Review please! :)
