Edward P.O.V

She said yes. She said yes!

I'm now standing in front of my closet, trying to find something to wear. My train of thought is interrupted by ringing.  It's her.

"Hello?" I answer.

"Edward?"

"Yes, Bella?"

"I just wanted to ask what I should wear. Is it casual or fancy?"

"You'll look great in anything"

"I just don't want to be the odd one out" she laughed nervously.

"Fancy" I smile even though she can't see me.

"Ok" she answered and hung up.

~ooOoo~

Bella P.O.V

I'm so clueless! What should I wear. To be completely honest I don't go out much, so my clothing isn't so fancy.

The door bell rings. "Nancy can you get that!" I shout to the maid downstairs. I hear heels clicking and the door opening.

I finally find a purple dress with ruffles and I throw on a cream coloured sweater since its a bit chilly outside. I tie my converse up and go downstairs.

The reason I have converse on and not heels is because heels hurt my feet, and I guarantee I'd trip and fall.

"Bella, you look amazing," Edward smiles.

"Thanks" I smile and blush

"Ready to go?" He asks. I simply nod and we're off. I climb into his silver Volvo and we pull out of the driveway with Claire De Lune playing in the background.

~ooOoo~

We reach a restaurant and it's absolutely beautiful. Edward opens my door and takes my hand. I smile and get out of the car.

He snakes his arm around my waist and I jump at first but soon relax at his embrace.

We get to the counter and Edward tells them about the reservations. "A table for two please" Edward answers. I didn't notice they were talking until i heard Edward answer.

His velvety voice just relaxes me. The man at the counter takes two menus and leads us to a table and leaves.

"What would you like?" He asks me. Everything is so expensive I'm sorta embarrassed to ask for anything.

"What are you getting?" I ask him instead.

"Steak with salad" he grins.

"I'll have the same," I smile.

The man comes back with a notepad and a pen. "Have you decided yet?" He asks. Edward nods. "What can I get you to drink?"

"An ice tea" Edward answers.

The man looks to me, his expression asking for an answer.

"Lemonade," I answer.

"Appetizer?"

"Large Shrimp cocktail"

"Main course?"

"Two plates of steak and salad" Edward answered smoothly. How does he do it? I don't know why but I always get nervous when I order stuff at restaurants.

The man nods and leaves. My favourite song plays in the background. Flightless bird.

Edward grins showing his paper white teeth. "Would you like to dance?" Oh no. Shit. I can't dance.

"I can't-" I was cut off, "it's okay, Bella. I'll show you" he takes my hand and drags me to the 'dance floor'. I don't know what to call it, but it was an area where couples came and danced.

I was startled when Edward lifted me up and placed my feet on top of his. He was moving to the song, taking me along with him.

"And so the lion fell in love with the lamb" Edward whispered in my ear. I shivered and goosebumps erupted along my skin.

The song was over and Edward took my hand and lead me back to the table.

We ate and talked and laughed. It was an amazing night. One of the best of my life. I loved it.

Edward drove me home and even kissed me at the door step.

There was one thing I was positive of. I was unconditionally and irrevocably in love with Edward Cullen.

I fell asleep a happy woman and was excited to see him again.

One sentence flashed through my mind before I fell asleep.

And so the lion fell in love with the lamb.

That meant he was in love with me too. He was my lion. And I was his lamb.
