It has been 15 days since i have moved to Bella's apartment.15 days since Esme last talked to me.The night i confessed that i am really moving into the apartment was the last time i talked to her or any other female of the family. 

Living with Bella is completely opposite of living with the family.We both started arguing at 1 in the morning at my first night here and since then had been constantly arguing about everything and nothing at the same time.But i wasn't constantly pestered with questions here.Could come back anytime i want to,eat whatever and whenever i want. It also made me realize how much Bella worked.She would wake up at 6 and have a workout session in the gym for an hour.Then at around 7 she would practice whatever she wanted. And would be out of the apartment at 9 and back usually by 7 or sometimes 9 P.M.

We actually haven't talked to each other face to face except in meetings or planning  sessions.Not that i want to.I am currently getting ready to attend the Williams Annual Charity Ball. The William's are close friends of my family.Peter William is a well-known surgeon and Charlotte William is a house wife.They both were college sweethearts and close friends of my parents as well as Bella's uncle and aunt's.Their son name is Christian William and he is an architect and runs his own company.This is the first time that i will be attending the ball.My date for tonight is a red haired girl named Victoria.She is Alice and Rosalie's friend and is a model and also good in sack so i really don't have any problem with taking her as my date. I have no idea who Bella is going to bring or even if she is coming or not.

ARRIVING AT THE BALL

As soon as we enter the long line of cars at the driveway we could hear the music and chatter.The Williams ball is one of the most famous formal event of the year and only socially standing families and friends are invited to it.The driver drops us off at the front lawn where a green carpet forms a walkway for us to walk on.The lawn is full of flashes as photographers click pictures after pictures.The lawn is beautifully decorated with fairy lights of different colors. A large tent is set up for the ball.I help Victoria out of the car. She is wearing a colored  dress which looks stunning on her.Her long red hair  were elegantly clipped behind.She gives me a not-so-shy smile as we pose for the pictures and i know tonight is going to be fun,pun-intended. 

As soon as we reach the entrance of the tent we are greeted by the sight of aunt Charlotte and Uncle Peter.Aunt was dressed beautifully in a red Victorian era gown and uncle was in the usual tux like the rest of the men.The introductions begins,not that they were needed.I felt Victoria's hand travel up and down my arm. "Edward,Emmett and Jasper welcome.Thank you so much for attending the  ball here.And Rosalie,Alice you both look stunning." gushed Charlotte.

 An odd sudden hush falls on the tent and we all  turn around to see the reason for it.My jaw along with everyone falls open as Bella walks in with Christian in a stunning blue dress.Her hair is done up in a bun and she wore a beautiful pendent around her neck.She looks stunningly beautiful in her strapless almost floor length blue dress."OH MY GOD!They are here."Charlotte shrieks and both of them excuse themselves and go out to greet the couple.

"Hi" Bella says as soon as she is close enough."You look stunning"I mentally curse  myself for the verbal vomit,but her smile kind of made up for it."you clean up pretty well too Cullen."She says with a hint of embarrassment and for the first time i notice her blush.Her blush just makes her all too beautiful.A throat clearing brings our attention back to the others and for the first time in ever i despise my hot date.If looks could kill i am sure i would be dead,i just shrug out of her hold and turn my attention towards my family.The women looked as if they had tasted something sour.My brothers openly gawked at her and the leaders looked stunned .Apparently nobody had ever seen her dressed up.

"Good evening."Christian greets us with a smile.He obviously knew that he had the hottest date tonight.He obviously was a handsome looking fellow,as tall as me.His black hair were dishelved slightly and his almond shaped eyes with black orbs observed me curiously.He was muscular but not as muscular as Em.We all exchanged pleasantries with him.
