The next couple of days went by pretty uneventful. I spent every second I could in the presence and arms of Edward.
Friday morning I woke up to a knock on our door. I walked over to it and noticed a note had been slipped underneath. I picked it up and saw that the envelope was light pink, and in neatly scripted letters it said,
Bella.
Hm, must be from Edward. I opened it up and read the note inside.
Dear Bella,
I will be gone most of the day, but I have a few surprises in store for you. Enjoy your day, and know I'll be thinking about you.
Love, Edward.
"Oh wow! He's romantic!" I jumped at the sound of Alice's voice from behind me.
"Why yes he is." I couldn't help but smile, and get that weird gushy lovey feeling inside. Oh I love the way Edward makes me feel.
As unhappy as I was about not seeing Edward, I was excited to see what type of surprises he had in store.
As we opened our door to leave we noticed a trail of flower petals leading to the stair case. We followed the trail all the way to the end which was at the bottom of the stairs. Sitting there on the floor in the corner were three red roses, and a note attached.
Bella,
In here is a puzzle piece, you will be receiving eight pieces throughout the day. Once you get all eight pieces put the puzzle together and it will be a picture of where I want you to meet me after school. Also, with each clue I have added a piece of candy just for fun to go along with your day.
Love, Edward.
"Whoa, this guy is definitely a keeper." Rosalie muttered.
"Yeah no kidding!!" Alice was crammed full of excitement.
"Pff, he learned it all from me."
We turned around to see Emmett and Jasper standing behind us.
" Jasper and I are going to take Rose and Alice out today so you don't have to be in school. Sorry Bella but you already ditched a day."
"Okay!" They both squealed out and ran over and wrapped their hands around their boyfriends' arms and walked off."
"Well bye guys!" Geez, they sure left quickly. I was mad. They could of taken me any way...
Without even turning around they answered back, "See-ya later Bells!"
Well great, no Alice, no Rosalie and no Edward. This is going to be a fun day.
I headed off to my first period class and when I got there I went and sat next to my friend Angela.
"Hey Ang, what's up?"
"Hey Bella! Oh not much, just stressing out about school. You know, the usual."
"Ha, yeah tell me about it."
When Mrs. Marie started giving directions on our newly assigned essay we stopped our conversation.
Class was nearly over when a paper airplane with a red rose attached had randomly flew through the open window of my class.
Mrs. Marie picked it up and said it was for me. I took off the flower and unfolded the airplane and took the second puzzle piece out that had a little Hershey's kiss attached to it.
What the heck? Where did that come from?
The note read:
Bella, here is the second piece of the puzzle and since I'm not there to kiss you in person, the candy will have to do.
