Spring Break

Chapter 1

Bella POV

I woke up feeling refreshed and happy, As from where I was lying in my bed I could see Edward sitting in the rocking chair making his way through my well thumbed version of Mansfield park.

He must of realised I had woken up as he came over to the bed and pecked me on the cheek. He then spoke it a soft whisper.

'morning love' His voice sent a shiver down my spine, I don't think I would ever get used to those velvet tones.

He then went to the window and said his goodbyes and said he would be around to pick me up for school later. As soon as he had gone I jumped out of bed, found some clothes that were scattered on the floor.

I then proceeded to run to the shower as I noticed the time I was half an hour later than usual.

As I let the water of the shower run over me, my mind wandered to the topic of Edward as it usually did. And I began to wonder and think up ways of him letting his guard down regarding our relationship. But I knew nothing was going to change the boundaries Edward had put forward and no amount of wishing was going to change this.

The water had now turned cold meaning I was even later than I was before. I hastily put on my tank top and jeans, and putting my hair up into a messy bun. And I already knew the looks of despair Alice was going to give me over my outfit.

As I ran down the stairs I heard Charlie shut the backdoor and shout a hurried goodbye, least I wasn't the only one running late this morning.

As soon as I had eaten half a cereal bar, I heard the familiar sound of Edwards Volvo pull into the drive. I grabbed my bag from the nearby chair and went to greet them both.

Alice and Edward were standing on the doorstep as I opened the door, As I stood taking in Edwards appearance I would never get over that beauty and why he would want someone as plain as me, but I could see the love in those golden orbs and he told me enough that he loved me.

As I took a step forward, I wrapped my arms around his neck and gave him a quick hug, and I had to admit that I missed him even though I had seen him only about an hour ago.

As I let him go Alice was giving me a beaming smile that make me suspicious, And I had a feeling that she was planning something and knowing Alice this would include shopping.

The school passed in a whir. And Alice was happy even for Alice, she couldn't keep that beaming smile off her face. And this had me even more suspicious.

As we drove to my house, Alice invited me over to Cullen's around 7 o'clock. Alice drove back Edwards Volvo and he stayed with me until I had to start preparing Charlie's dinner and he said he would come around to pick me up later.

I felt that there was a reason for Alice inviting over tonight, and maybe all would be relieved why she had been acting overly happy all day. These were the worst part of the day, As this was my time without Edward and I missed him and all I can say is thank god I eat. Because if I didn't I would have nothing to occupy my mind.

Charlie came home around six, and as we ate dinner we sat in companionable silence, with him reading the newspaper, he was umming and ahhing at all the articles he read. I thought I had better tell him I was going to Cullen's. He muttered 'fine' as his attention was on the sports programme on the flat screen.

7 o'clock rolled around quickly enough, Edward picked me up at seven on the dot. As we reached the Cullen's house he helped me out of the car, and as soon as I was inside Alice came bounding up to me and said in her musical voice 'I have a surprise for you' oh yeah! How I love surprise. I really hoped it wasn't shopping.

Alice led me into the living room, where Carlisle and Esme were sitting on the sofa, they both smiled at me as I came in.

Alice started talking ' Bella, you know its spring break from Saturday don't you?' I had actually completely forgotten but replied 'yes Alice'

'well we as a family go up to the alps to a log cabin, and we all wondered if you would like to come with us?' I stood there stunned I had never been out of the U.S let alone to France. I was overwhelmed that they thought as me as part of the family, and I could feel the tears brimming in my eyes'

Esme broke the silence by saying 'Bella, we didn't think twice about it, your part of the family now' now the tears were going to come, as I could feel them brimming over and sliding down my cheeks. I choked out 'ok'

Alice's eyes lit up and she squealed 'shopping' I groaned at this I knew she was going to get shopping in there somewhere and attempt to buy me a whole new wardrobe.

' And Edward would be a right old moody guts, if he was parted from you for two weeks' I smiled at this and after I thought about it I decided it would be fun, As Edward would be there to catch me when I fall and I had always wanted to learn to ski. I just thought of one small problem Charlie.

Alice seemed to sense my worry, and chirped in I've already ask Charlie and he said yes on one condition that you have your own room or that you don't sleep in the same room as Edward.

Edward was now driving me home I was excited about the trip, and Alice had planned to get me kitted out tomorrow and we were going to mall after school tomorrow. I was most excited that I would have 2 whole interrupted weeks with Edward, true bliss.

And the devil in my head, your going to try and push his boundaries I shook those thoughts away, as there was no way he would let me get away with that.
