THE DARK SIDE OF BELLA SWAN

Chapter Twenty-Four (Setting A date)

Bella's POV

Jacob has been missing for a week, Charlie has been putting posters up all over the place even thought Billy told him not to. It was a week ago when I had deliberately punched Jacob in the face for trying to kiss me, but I still don't feel sorry about it either. I only loved Jacob as a brother and a friend, my heart only belonged to Edward and that's how it's going to remain. I wanted to spend the rest of eternity with Edward, we would be conceiving a child in about five weeks and I just couldn't wait until Edward's and mine honeymoon because that's when it's going to happen.

Charlie snapped me out of my thoughts when he asked, "Have you two set a date for the wedding yet?" I looked over at Edward before answering, "No, not yet." Edward commented, "Alice has been very persistent on us setting a date, she's...we better decide soon to get her off our backs." I replied, "I know, she's lucky I haven't attacked her again." Edward said with a smirk, "That would be fun to see." I told him, "I know Emmett would enjoy it, he probably enjoy it more if he was the one fighting me." Edward informed me, "No fighting Emmett until you're one of us, but you still can attack the annoying black-haired pixie." I asked, "Should I tell Alice you gave me permission to attack her?" Edward said, "Don't you dare or I'll withhold...."

I laughed when Charlie asked, "Were you saying you were going to withhold sex from my daughter if she told your sister that?" I smiled slyly at Edward when he answered, "Maybe." I growled in annoyance as my cell-phone went off for the twentieth time today, it was Alice calling to see if we set a date yet. I tossed my phone to Edward and said, "Run it over with your car, so I don't have to be bothered by her again." He responded, "That won't get rid of her, but this will."

Suddenly Edward answered the phone, "Hello Alice, this isn't a good time right now." I heard Alice ask, "Why? What's wrong?" He responded, "You interfering when I was about to make love with Bella," Edward had said it so low Charlie didn't hear him. Alice said, "I'm sorry, I'll call back later." He commanded, "Tomorrow after nine in the morning, not a minutes sooner." When Alice agreed he hung up on her and we both started laughing so hard, I would have to remember that excuse next time to use on her.

Charlie asked confused, "What did you tell her?" Edward replied, "Something you really wouldn't want to hear me say." Charlie said, "Oh, I think I understand what you mean by that." Edward turned to me and said, "We should really set a date, so Alice can leave us alone." I replied, "I know Edward, I just don't know when." Edward asked in his mind, "When is our baby going to be born?" I said too low for human ears, "a few days before my birthday." Then he thought, "How long is the pregnancy going to be?"  I whispered, " A few days short from being six weeks." Edward thought it over and asked, "Saturday August third okay?" I replied, "Yep, it's perfect." Edward and I just finally set a date and I couldn't be any happier;well, I would be a hundred times more happier on our honey moon because I would be alone with Edward.
