I meet his eyes that are full of confusion.
"I have to go," I said " but I can give you my number..." I trailed off, hoping it would be enough.
"You can't come talk to me? Why not? Is it because I'm what I am?" He asked. I felt the guilt rising,
"No, of course not. My brother is coming home from Alaska, I want to be there when he gets home..." I said looking down " I'm sorry.." I hear him sigh and nod in understanding, I look up at him and still see a little bit of disappointment in his eyes.
"It's okay, I get it you missed him." I nodded with a slight smile while holding out my hand.
"Give me your phone." He pulls his phone out of his jacket pocket and hand it to me. I take the small phone from his giant hand. I put my number in and stand next to him pushing my self up on my tip toes with my hand on his shoulder, he leans down a little bit and I stick my tongue out at the camera and he laughs, god I love his laugh. ( that's what the picture would look like just imaging him laughing)I save my contact in his phone and hand it back to him. He smiles,
"I like that picture." He says while
looking down at the screen, I nod in agreement,
"Well maybe you can send it to me now that you have my number.." I said with a small smile. He nods while opening my car door for me. I get in with a thank you,
"So you're going to use that number right, if you aren't I want it back." I said with a laugh. He smiles at me and nods.
"I will I promise" he says with a laugh. I nod and close my car door, back out of Bella's drive way and drive home.
(Skip the drive)
I pull up to my house and see Edward waiting for me outside, I take my key out of the transmission, climb out of the car, slam the door, and run at him full speed.
"EDWARD!!" I yell excitedly. He laughs and holds his arms out ready to catch me. I finally get to his arms and when I hit his chest it sounded like boulders colliding, I feel his arms wrap around me. I inhale his scent, missing it. I feel him kiss my head, as we rock back and forth. We pull apart and he looks at me, I know what he's going to ask.
"Why do you smell like a wet dog?" He asks while looking at me with curiosity. I feel a smile come to my face while I thought of my mate. I look at my best friend who has a confused look on his face.
"I found him..." I said.
"Found who?" He asks.
"My mate Ed, I found him.." I say I can feel the tears come to my eyes, the tears that would never fall. He smiled at me, wrapping me in a hug,
"That's amazing El!! I'm so happy for you!" I smile up at him and nod, my mind begins to travel to his his brown eyes. Edward smiles down at me slightly,
"I won't tell anyone until you're ready." He says. I smile as we walk into,the house. Alice appears in front of me squealing,
"You found him!! Finally!" She says with a bright smile while pulling me into a hug even I can't get out of. I laugh and nod while hugging her back.
"Jasp come control your pixie, I can't breathe and I'm a vampire!" I exclaim while looking at him over her shoulder. He laughs and comes forward peeling her away from me. I smile in appreciation, and look at the rest of my family, who looks incredibly confused.
"I found my mate.." I say giving them an explanation. Esme and Rose squeal like Alice did and pull me into a tight hug, Carlisle smiles and says congratulations, Emmett's reaction is what made me laugh the most.
"Who is he? Is he nice? Do I need to worry about him hurting you?" I laugh and shake my head slightly
"No Em, don't even worry about him. He's a perfect gentleman." He nods and pulls me into a hug, my head only just reaching the bottom of his chest, his arms wrap around my shoulders, while mine wind around his lower back.
" I just want to make sure my baby sister doesn't get hurt.." He says in my ear.
"I know Em. And I'm older then you by a lot of years." I say with a laugh as we release each other from the hug. He lets out a laugh that could shake our walls,
"But I'm still taller. But I guess you're right you are old, how old is the guy anyway?" He asks.
"19" I say looking up at him.
"So... you're a cougar then?" He says while he laughs at his own joke. I roll my eyes and begin to head upstairs to shower and change into something more comfortable. After I got out of my shower I change into this:
