I woke up with Edward's arms around my neck. I woke up just in time to hear him mumble, "Die Jacob." I was smiling at that. I looked over at the black couch and Jasper sitting on it reading. Everyone had decided to take shifts watching us. Tanya had left yesterday but Alice and Edward were still worried. I looked at the clock-*4AM*. I gently moved out of Edward's grip and sat up. Jasper noticed I was awake, "Mornin' Bella." As soon as I looked at him he looked back at his book. "Good morning, Jasper." "Mmmm.." I got up and grabbed some clean cloths and headed off to the bathroom. I could feel Jasper watching me. After I got a shower, changed, and brushed my teeth; I came out and found Edward sitting up, crouched over himself getting sick. Jasper was sitting next to him holding the bucket. I ran over and sat on Edward's other side. I gently rubbed his back. After a few seconds he stopped. Jasper walked out to empty the bucket, and I helped Edward lay back down. Emmett came back in with the bucket. "your shift now?" He nodded and walked over to the couch. I laid down and decided to take a nap.

Bella laid down next to me and in a few minutes, she was asleep. I looked at Emmett, "Thank you, Emmett." "Hey, I'm not gonna let some blonde-bitch vampire hurt my little sis." Rose, Jasper and Carlisle stuck their heads in my room, they were looking at Emmett, "Is something wrong with being a blonde?" "Hell Ya-ROSE! Oh, shit I didn't mean it like that." Rose looked like he was going to kill him. Emmett-being the super tough man he is-screamed and jumped out my window. Carlisle walked in, "I'll fill in for Emmett while Rose kills him." "Thanks Carlisle." I looked down at Bella who had my shirt in her fist. I laid down next to her and wrapped my arms around her waist. Ummm...So warm. I eventually fell asleep.

I smiled as I watched Edward lay down next to Bella and wrap his arms around her. I was so happy that after a hundred years he had found someone for him-he deserved it. As I watched them sleep I had to admit there was a small twinge of jealously in me. I envied how they could sleep with each other. I would never be able to wake up in Esme's arms, nor she in mine. Edward sighed and smiled in his sleep. I smiled too, I had never really seen Edward so happy. He was so much different now, yet still the same. I had to admit I was impressed that he could lay so close to her like that. And he was afraid he would never be able to touch her...
*Flash Back* (The day before Edward takes Bella to the meadow)
"But, Carlisle, what if I hurt her? What if I...I kill her?!" I walked over to him and put my hand on his shoulder. "Edward, you won't hurt her. I've know you since you were a newborn, I've seen how strong you are. You WILL be able to resist her blood. I know you will." He looked up at me with terror in his eyes, "What if, when she sees me in the sun, she leaves?" I sat down next to him. "She won't." How do you know?! What if she thinks I'm a monster?!" "Edward. She knows you're a vampire, and she's still here. If she was going to leave," he flinched, "She would have left by now." "Carlisle....I'm scared." I hugged him.***
(After the meadow)
Edward came in smiling, "I take it things went well?" He smiled even more. "Yes, she..." She just shook his head and smiled. I walked over to him, "I'm glad you had fun, and see, I told you! You wouldn't kill her." "I...I held her hand too." I smiled, "Edward, that's great. I told you you were strong enough for this. But your cold skin didn't bother her?" "No, She acted like it was normal." "And I'm to assume she didn't run when she saw you in the sunlight?" "No, she was...fascinated by it." "Edward, I am so proud of you." He still had the goofy grim, "Why are you smiling so much?" "I...I kissed her Carlisle." Emmett walked by then, "Oh, somebody's a little hot for a human! "EMMETT!" Edward and I yelled. "Hey, just keep it in your pants bro." I was pretty sure Edward would be red if that was possible.***
*End Flash back*
I smiled, I was so proud of him.
