End of Chapter 1
My tim, trái tim started racing as I reached my hands up into his hair, twisting, pulling him closer against me, deepening the kiss. Knowing he was going to eventually pull away, I held on tight, fingers interlocked behind his head. He finally reached up and placed both hands on the side of my head, and pulled me away, breaking the contact I was fighting to hard to keep. I gasped for air, finally realizing that air was important to. He leaned his forehead against mine and looking me in the eye.
“I tình yêu you” He said, his cool breath washing over me. bởi this point I couldn't tell what was making me dizzy, lack of oxygen, hoặc Edward. I bit my lip and thought to myself “Edward... I could live without oxygen, but I could never live without Edward” I quickly sunk forward, planting one thêm Kiss on his lips.
“Good” I grinned. “Now...why did Esme say I needed to save room for later?” I asked, having full knowledge that he had no intentions to ever tell me.
“Secret” He laughed, as he brushed his nose against mine.
I slowly opened my eyes, not even realizing I had fallen asleep. “Edward?” I called out, trying to see in the pitch black. Nothing. I reached my hand over to where he usually would be beside me. No one. I sat up in bed, straining to hear but the house was completely silent. I reached over to the bàn beside me, flicking the lamp on. Blinded bởi the light I squinted, trying to look around the room. Adjusting to my surroundings, alone. Once my eyes adjusted to the light I slowly opened when something caught my eye. I glanced over, and on the cái gối, gối beside me was two red hoa hồng and a note. I rolled my eyes and reached across the bed, grabbing the piece of folded paper, brining my knees up to my chest, wrapping my arm around them, I unfolded the note.
My Dear Bella,
Give her two red roses, each with a note.
The first note says For the woman I love
and the second, For my best friend.
Forever Yours, Edward
I glanced back at the roses, noticing a tag on each. I grabbed the rose closest to me.
“For the woman I love”
My eyes watering, I reached for the other.
“For my best friend”
“Valentines Day” I muttered under my breath as I wiped my eyes. I tore the blankets off me, sending thousands of red pieces everywhere. I glanced around the bed, to see thousands of red petals leading to the bathroom. I rolled my eyes as I climbed off the giường and walked into the bathroom. The smell of vanilla overwhelmed me as I noticed about a thousand candles lit around the giant room. Shocked, I walked continued on, taking everything in. The roses, the candles. Speechless. I glanced over to see the tub filled, rose petals and bubbles covered the surface. I thought about calling out to Edward, but decided to play along with his games. I undressed and stepped into the tub, the bubbles surrounding me. I closed my eyes slowly, as I faintly heard something coming from downstairs. It was Edward. He was playing the Piano. My tim, trái tim almost stopped. “Oh” I đã đưa ý kiến to myself, my eyes watering. I hummed along to the lullaby and lowered myself deeper into the tub, letting the aroma of the vanilla and hoa hồng take over. After a while, the water started getting cold, and I decided it was time to get out. I wrapped myself in a giant towel, noticing two outfits beside me on the counter. A pair of black pressed pants and a blouse, beside that, a pair of jeans and a sweater. This had Alice, and Edwards name all over it. I stood there staring at my choices, and decided that considering this was mine and Edwards Valentines day, I chose my jeans and sweater. I still didn't know where he was taking me yet, but I was almost certain that I wouldn't need to dress up this late. I tugged my jeans on, and pulled the sweater over my wet hair, grabbing a brush I combed my hair neatly into a ngựa con, ngựa, pony tail. I quickly brushed my teeth and headed downstairs. When I opened the door, the giường was made, the mess was gone. I glanced over to the door leading to the hallway, noticing the mess actually wasn't gone at all, just repositioned. I followed the rose petals out of his room, down the hallway and down the stairs, still in the pitch black. When I made it to the bottom of the stairs, I felt hands reach around me, knowing exactly who it was.
“Hi” I đã đưa ý kiến softly. Reaching out to bọc my arms around his neck. “Thank you” I smiled.
“Happy Valentines Day” He said, brining me closer, softly kissing my lips. I could feel his lips slightly form a smile.
“mmhmm” I said, ignoring the words, but listening to the feelings behind them.
“I'm glad bạn picked my outfit.” He said, sliding his hands up my back, around my neck, pulling me in for another kiss.
“Me too.” I mumbled through pursed lips, which were preoccupied with his. I reached my hand up around the back of his head, pulling him in closer, my head spinning. Finally he drew back, letting me catch my breath.
“You ready to go” He asked, grabbing my hand in his as he turned for the door.
“Nope” I said, following him anyways.
He grabbed my áo, áo khoác and helped me into before heading outside. I stood there, watching as he slowly put his áo, áo khoác on. Watching him in the moonlight streaming in through the windows. His smile, the kindness in his eyes. I didn't care what ngày it was, I loved him the same way everyday. I reached out and wrapped my arms around him as he was in the middle of putting his áo, áo khoác on, pressing my face against his cool chest.
“Bella?” He questioned
“I tình yêu you, thats all” I said, blushing as I stepped back, composing myself.
He grabbed my hand as we slid out the front door and walked to the car. Snow falling all around us. He came around the car and opened the door for me.
“So, where are we going?” I asked, hoping maybe he would tell me now.
“Secret.” He smiled, as he climbed into the ghế, chỗ ngồi beside me, starting the car. I watched the house fade away as he backed out of the driveway slowly, and then we were on our way.
After driving for nearly over an giờ I suddenly panicked. “We're not taking a plane anywhere are we?” I asked, my eyes widening as I thought about flying, not one of my yêu thích things.
“Nope” He said, still not giving me any hints.
“Train?” I guessed.
“Nope” He laughed.
“Boat?” I asked, wrinkling my nose. I hated boats thêm than planes.
“Nope.”
“Hm, So we're just driving there?” I asked, completely confused bởi now.
“Nope.” He laughed again. “Bella, stop guessing, I'm not going to tell you. I'm sure bạn know what a secret is, and a surprise. Just sit back, and relax.”
“Alright...” I đã đưa ý kiến hesitantly, closing my eyes as I lay my head against the head rest, trying to get thêm comfortable. Watching the cars, as they passed us on the highway I slowly closed my eyes.
“Bella.” Edward said, nudging me.
“Wha?!” I jumped, immediately closing my eyes again. “What time is it?” I asked, referring to the bright sun that managed to find its way through the tinted windows.
“Around 10:30” He said, as he turned off the highway, down a bumpy dirt road, causing me to jump in my seat.
“This...looks...romantic..” I laughed to myself, looking out the window at the thousands of trees surrounding us.
“Well we're not there yet” He laughed to himself, taking my hand in his. “It's sorta...out of the way. I figured privacy would be important, with the sun and all” I glanced out the window at the bright sun, and back to Edward, who was letting off a dull glimmer. Something I loved the first time I saw it. I looked down at my hand in his, and intertwined our fingers, moving his hand, causing it to shimmer slightly in the sun. I brought his hand up to my lips and lightly kissed his sparkling thumb, sending a spark through my lips. I smiled.
“And we're here!” He said, squeezing my hand as he took off his seatbelt. I glanced out the window, letting out a gasp.
My tim, trái tim started racing as I reached my hands up into his hair, twisting, pulling him closer against me, deepening the kiss. Knowing he was going to eventually pull away, I held on tight, fingers interlocked behind his head.
