Everything changed the night we talked and woke up snuggled together.

After we talked to Sam that just because Edward and I fell asleep together doesn't mean I was going to be her mom. The whole time I couldn't help thinking that I wanted to be her mom more than anything.

Now Edward touches me every chance he gets. He does more so when we are alone, he has to hold my hand or have his arm wrapped around my shoulders or waist. And I am the same way when Sam is in bed, and he happens to be home I have him lay in my lap so I can play with his hair.

I have no clue what it means. And I am too scared to ask. I don't know if I am afraid of it becoming real or if it's all in my head.

Clearing my thoughts, I gather the things I need for the dinner I am going to make for Edward and the guys over at the station.

Jasper has mixed feeling with me doing this. On the one hand, he loves it because he loves my cooking. On the other is his grimacing face when one of the guys hits on me. Not that it has been an issue. Once Edward did his little scene the other day putting his hand on me kissing my cheek most of them have backed off.

Usually, I bring Sam with me, but tonight Esme has taken her saying she wanted her for the company. Carlisle was away again helping another hospital out for a couple of days.

I find this odd considering that when we were over there for the weekly family dinner, they never mentioned him leaving this week.

I pulled into the firehouse and walked in like all the many times I have before. But when I walk in the kitchen it's covered in flowers and candles set on the table. Edward is in a black button up rolled up to his elbow and black slacks, smiling.

"What is all this?" I ask setting my bags down.

He rubs the back of his neck, "I thought we could have a date, just you with some good food and me."

My mouth pops open a bit.

"I know this could go wrong, but I need to see where this goes because you are my every thought." he is in front in me taking my hands into his. I feel a tingling shoot through my arms.

I look into his darkening green eyes, and I could see everything that I ever wanted in them.

"Let's try."
