I Love Boarding School and Bronze-Haired Beauties

We drove for a few minutes before Edward pulled into the parking lot of an old brick building. There were vines all over the face of the building, but it didn't have any windows; just a large, ornate door. On the front was a sign that read 'RIVAS'. I had no idea where we were…I looked over at Edward questioningly but all he did was grin with excitement. He ran over to my side and opened the door, taking my hand and pulling me close.

"Where are we Edward?" I asked nervously.

Edward didn't reply, he just led me up to the building. We walked up the stairs and Edward opened the door for me. I looked at him with my eyebrow raised before I tentatively walked in. When I did, I was completely blown away. It was a little restaurant that was also a karaoke bar. The room was dimly lit with a bunch of tall, round tables scattered around. Candles were lit on the tables. There was a stage with band equipment set up, and soft music was playing. Couples were sitting, gazing at each other, falling in love.

"Do you like it?" Edward asked softly as he wrapped an arm around my waist.

All I could do was nod. I was in utter shock. Edward chuckled and urged me to move towards the hostess podium. There was a young college looking girl standing there reading a book. She looked up and smiled when Edward cleared his throat.

"Right this way." she said as she walked towards a table in the middle of the room. Edward held my chair out for me as I sat down. He then took his place across from me.

"Here's your menu's. A waiter will be with you shortly." the hostess said before she walked back to her post.

I looked around one more time before setting my gaze on Edward who was watching me with that crooked grin on his face.

"This place is amazing!" I gushed, I loved it here.

"I'm glad you like it. I come here for coffee on the weekends and I thought it would be perfect for our date." Edward said as he reached across the table and grasped my hand in his.

"You're perfect." I said seriously as I looked into his eyes. I think I actually dazzled Edward for once. His breath hitched, and he got that look on his face that I get when he dazzles me.

I smiled victoriously and giggled when the waiter walked up and Edward snapped out of his trance. "What can I get for you two?" the waiter asked looking between us.

"Bella?" Edward probed.

"I'll have…the lasagna and a Dr. Pepper." I said as I handed our waiter my menu.

"I'll have the same, but with a Coke." Edward replied while giving up his menu.

"Okay, your food will be here shortly." was all the waiter said as he walked away.

"So, are you excited about the dance Friday?" Edward asked nonchalantly.

"I suppose. I know I'll probably be subjected to hours of torture from my so called best friends." I huffed.

Edward laughed and I rolled my eyes. Of course he would find my misery funny. Just then our waiter came by with our drinks. I took a sip of mine, I was beginning to get really thirsty.

"So what did Emmett and Jasper say about the prank we pulled?" I asked with a laugh.

"Jasper was the most frightened and has learned not to mess with you. Emmett on the other hand…he's planning revenge." Edward warned seriously.

"I laugh at his revenge. Ha! Haha! HA!" I mocked. Edward shook his head and chuckled.

Our waiter came and set our food in front of us. "Enjoy, I'll be back to check on you. If you need anything let me know." he then walked away again. He was a waiter of few words.

Edward and I dug in. We talked about anything and everything while we ate. There was never a moment of silence. The food was amazing, I had never had lasagna this good before. I was just blown away. This had to be the best date I had ever been on. We finished our food at about the same time. As we waited to get our check, I noticed a lot of the couples were up slow dancing to the songs coming from somewhere in the room. I couldn't help but wonder what it would be like to dance with Edward like that…my head on his chest, his arms around my waist…

"Bella, would you like to dance?" Edward asked, breaking me out of my daydream.

"Really?" I asked excitedly.

All the did was grin before standing up and offering me his arm. I followed him out onto the floor. I draped my arms around his neck, and he had his hands on my waist. A new song started playing and I knew at that moment, it was our song. We began swaying, with Edward leading of course, to the song. Edward began singing the lyrics in my ear as we danced.

There's something about you now,

That I can't quite figure out.

Everything she does is beautiful,

Everything she does is right.

I couldn't help the goofy smile that came over my face. Edward had his forehead resting against mine. He was gazing into my eyes as the song came to an end. I just wanted to stay here forever.

"Bella?" Edward whispered.

"Yes?" I breathed.

"Will you, officially, be my girlfriend?" he asked with his crooked grin.

I can't even explain the feeling of absolute bliss that took me over. I couldn't speak! Edward had just asked me to be his girlfriend! I know I probably looked like a fool just standing there with my mouth open in shock.

"Yes!" I squealed before he thought my silence was a 'no.' Edward's smile got even wider if that's possible, I know my smile would be permanent for a few days.

I don't know how much time had passed, all I know is that Edward and I had been dancing, just gazing at each other for a few songs now. It was getting close to closing time though, because chairs were beginning to be stacked. Edward grabbed the check from our table and left a tip for our waiter. We walked hand in hand to the register and paid for our meal then walked outside into the cool night. Our hands were swinging lazily between us. I was still on cloud nine! Edward led me to the passenger side of the car.

"Thank you for the amazing date Edward." I said with a bright smile.

"Anything for you Bella. But I have one more place to take you…if that's alright?" Edward inquired with a raise of his eyebrow.

"Sure!" I squealed excitedly. Edward opened my door and I slipped into the car. He shut the door before running to the drivers side and hopping in. I flashed him a huge smile and he returned it with his crooked grin as he started the car and sped off.

I watched the scenery as we passed. I couldn't stop smiling, I know I looked like a fool. When Edward slowed the car, we were at a park? I wasn't sure. I gave him a confused look but he just got out and dashed over to open my door. I got out and took his hand, he was vibrating with excitement.

"What are we doing Edward?" I asked with a chuckle as he pulled me away some where into all the trees.

"Isn't the sunset spectacular?" He asked instead of answering my question.

I looked up at the sky as Edward continued to lead me. It did look pretty, some red and orange, pink and a hint purple was in the sky.

"I guess it is?" I said unsurely.

"Hmmm…" was all I got from him in response.

I sighed in frustration since I was still being dragged. After a couple of minutes of nothing but green, I saw some light and Edward stopped abruptly. I tried looking around him but he was too tall and he was keeping me hidden from whatever he wanted to show us.

"Edward!" I exclaimed, demanding to know what he was hiding.

"Okay…look." Edward breathed as he stepped to the side.

I glared at him before moving forward and looking at whatever it was he had drug me to. When I glanced up, I was in awe. I gasped and stood there, completely amazed. It was the most beautiful thing I had ever seen. Edward had brought me to a pond. But that's not what was so great about it, the setting sun had reflected it's colors over the surface of the pond. There was blue, purple, pink, orange, red, and yellow dancing over the water in perfect harmony. It was like one big water color.

I looked up at the sky and saw the stars that had begun to come out. I then turned to all the trees that were surrounding the pond, they had taken on a purplish hue and were almost glowing next to the sun. It was the most breath taking thing I had ever seen in my entire life.

"Do you like it?" Edward whispered in my ear as he wrapped his arm around my waist.

I nodded silently, too choked up to say anything. I had a lump in my throat and tears were beginning to fill my eyes. It was absolutely the most beautiful thing I could have ever seen. I looked around one more time before turning and facing Edward. He, himself, was looking as his he was glowing in the twilight.

"Edward…" was all I could manage as I gazed at him. He was wonderful for doing all of this for me.

Edward cupped my cheek with his hand and smiled crookedly, making my heart soar even more. Our faces were just centimeters apart. I glanced between Edward's gorgeous green eyes, and chiseled lips. Before I could close the distance, Edward beat me. His lips connected with mine and my heart exploded.

It was the most amazing kiss I had ever felt in my entire life. Every nerve in my body was on fire. The more my lips moved against his, the higher and higher I soared. All too soon, we broke apart, panting heavily. I know I was probably blushing like mad, Edward's cheeks were a light pink and his eyes were sparkling like diamonds.

"I've been wondering what it would be like to finally kiss you…I wanted it to be special, and this is the most special place I know." Edward breathed, his sweet breath fanned over my face and I sighed. I know I had a goofy smile on my face.

"I'm glad you waited." I giggled.

Edward laughed before giving me a chaste kiss. He rested his forehead against mine and smiled, I happily returned it.

"This has been the best date, ever. Thank you Edward." I said softly.

"I'm just glad you said yes." Edward said with a crooked grin.

"I couldn't pass up a date with the Great Edward Cullen!" I mocked with a laugh.

Edward chuckled and pulled me in for a tight hug. We stayed there for a minute before he released me and grabbed my hand.

"We should probably get back, it's getting dark." Edward said with a sigh.

"Okay." I replied reluctantly as he pulled me back to the car.

He opened the door and I sat down. I was smiling like a fool, thinking about my night. This literally was the best date I had ever been on! Edward got in the drivers seat and flashed me a smile, I blushed and grin right back. He took my hand in his on top of the gearshift before starting the car and taking off. I looked at the dash and saw it was almost 9 o'clock. Tonight had been wonderful! On our way back to school, we didn't stop talking. He told me about his family, his likes, dislikes, wants, dreams, everything. Of course we had talked about that kinda stuff before…but now it was more personal. We were officially together!

It didn't take long before we were back at school. We sat in the car for a moment, just gazing at each other. It was a perfect silence, our breathing was the only thing we heard.

"Thank you for going out with me tonight. I had a great time." Edward said lovingly.

"No, thank you! I have never had so much fun." I said with affection coming from my voice.

Edward gave me my favorite crooked grin and I looked away shyly. He placed a finger under my chin and turned me to him, his face was very close to mine. He gave me a short, sweet kiss. I savored every moment of it. It was just as amazing as our first one. We broke away, both grinning.

"Lets go." Edward said before getting out of the car and coming to my side, opening my door. He offered my his hand and I happily took it.

We walked back to my dorm, talking about our night, the dance Friday, our friends…all too soon we were in front of my door.

"I'll be here bright and early in the morning." Edward whispered with his forehead rested against mine.

"I'll see you then." I said with a smile.

Edward grinned and gave me a peck on the lips, and a tight hug. I didn't want to let him go…but I knew I'd see him in the morning. I watched as he walked away, he kept looking back grinning. Once he disappeared on the elevator, I sighed, grinned, and walked into my room. I had expected the girls to be up, but they weren't. They weren't even home, they must've been with their men. So I went into my room and stripped down. I was still smiling like a fool, thinking about my night. I changed into a pair of navy blue sweatpants and grey long sleeve American Eagle pullover. I unbraided my hair and ran my fingers through it. I then scrubbed my makeup off.

It was getting late, thankfully I didn't have any homework to do, so I turned my light off and curled up under my covers. I sighed and grinned, excited that I'd see Edward in the morning. With that as my last thought, I drifted off to sleep dreaming about my Edward.
