Right Here All Along
Chapter 5
Emmett and I are celebrating our first anniversary of dating.
I'm going to surprise him by finally moving in with him. He's been asking me since we first made it official all those months ago.
But he understood, he knew I needed to get my head together and work through my personal fears and not to forget my mom, she's been terribly brave this past year. She's had a double masactomy and radiation therapy and is now in remission, she hasn't been working because she was too weak, I try to keep her busy most days. We drive over to Jasper and Maria's house and visit for a while, do lunch with Esme and she's even started volunteering at the school, helping out wherever she can.
Emmett surprised me with a romantic dinner at home. He grilled out steaks and baked potatoes, corn on the cob and even made a chocolate cream pie, all by candle light on his back deck. It was beautiful.
"Em, I have something I need to tell you." I sighed.
"Bell, if it's bad news can it at least wait until after dinner? I just want this moment with you." He sounded defeated.
"Well, I don't think its bad news." I stressed.
He nodded for me to continue.
"I think it's time I moved." I looked at my plate.
"WHAT?! You said it wasn't bad!" he slammed his fist on the table.
I glared at him, he knew how I felt about his temper. We'd only had three major arguments over our relationship and only once he got so mad he put a hole in his wall.
"Damn it Bells, why do you have to let him get to you?" he yelled
"I try not to let it! But sometimes it hurts to know what I did, and all because of him." I snapped.
"That what he wants though! He thinks you still have a thing for him!" he laughed an unhappy laugh.
"You know that's the furthest thing from my mind!" I jabbed his chest.
"THEN DON'T FUCKING CRY AROUND HIM!" he punched the wall and I freaked, running back to the cabin and locking myself in my bedroom, crying, sobbing and ignoring him for three days.
He came over and took the door knob off, carried me to the bathroom, drew me a bath and set in there with me, kissing my neck and shoulders, giving me a massage, apologizing over and over.
After we'd finished our bath I laid into him about losing his temper and told him I wouldn't stand for it.
"Emmett, no… You've got it all wrong." I shook my head.
"Really?" he asked doubtfully.
"Yes." I stood my ground.
"Well then enlighten me." He snapped.
"I think it's time for me to move… in here." I smiled at him.
He jumped from his seat and picked me up, spinning me around.
"Really?" he asked kissing me.
"Yes! Really!" I smiled.
"Bella you've made me the happiest man in the world!" he hugged me tight.
"I also found out some more great news. My book is being made into a movie." I smiled wide.
"When?" he smiled with me.
"Well, the book tour was really successful last summer, they're wanting to start this summer. And I get to have a say in casting and will be on-site for the filming." I told him.
"This summer?" he sighed.
"Yeah, is that a problem?" I questioned.
"Well, I was hoping we could set a date." He shrugged and sat me back in my chair.
"We still can, and you know I don't want anything big." I hinted.
"Do you know when in the summer?" he queried.
"I'm not sure yet, but I believe they're shooting for production to start right after the 4th of July." I answered.
"Well, let's set a date before then and we can use the shooting time as our honeymoon." He shrugged.
"If you would like that, OK." I smiled and continued "I want it small, maybe here or at your parents, in the garden." I suggested.
"My parents would be the better bet. It's easier to find and that way we can leave whenever. If it's here we'd have to wait for everyone to be gone." He mentioned.
"Very true! Smart and Sexy." I rubbed my foot up and down his leg.
"That's what I'm supposed to say." He joked.
He carried me to bed after dinner was finished and made slow and passionate love to me all night, we slept little, and loved a lot!
