Bella POV
Edward already told me about his three friends while we got here and it did not take me time to recognize who was who. I smiled towards the jealous Edward and the childish Hara I smiled toward him and assure him "It's ok Hara Edward told me about you.You seem like a really a nice person".He smiled and we started to talk a little. As I talked to Hara i saw Edward is giggling again, unmanly it is, his muscles are shaking and Jealousy is all one can feel around him. I hold my breath behind pursed lips to steel myself against the gales of laughter to come.Hara suddenly questioned me still laughing from one of the previously made dad joke "Sister-in-law!You should be in my team whenever you are here. It seems we are made for each other! ".I give him a sweet smile and continue "But what about my heart? It's with this man. I can't live without my heart can i? ".Hara raised his glass "To the stolen heart! ".As I took a glance towards Edward his face is lit up brighter than a toothpaste commercial and he has that soft look on his face.
Edward POV
As we were chatting with Hara I felt a hand on my shoulders it could be no one except the one and only my brother Owen I turned immediately and he hugged me tightly and I hugged him back " Oh!I knew you would recognize me.Who is this beauty by the way? Is she with Hara".He said pointing towards Bella and I immediately caught his hand and turned it over and he started to shout "She is your sister in law pay her your respect!".Owen immediately was shocked but went towards Bella and introduced himself "Oh ! I am sorry actually Edward is never with a women.I thought you were with Hara anyway.Hi ! I am Owen Han you are really beautiful Bella and take care of my little brother he is delicate you know".
I went towards Owen and slapped him (we played games and fooled around each other since it was common among us) "Small brother? I am only four days smaller than you and you want me to show you who is delicate huh?".I said turning his wrist and then letting him lose. Bella, Hara and Jasper started laughing.
"Aaaaoooo! Not fair Edward first you get married without informing us and than you torcher me!" Owen complained rubbing his hands. Jasper continued while taking a sip from his drink "yeah, That is true who would have known that our Edward who never touched a women would be the one who will get married first!".Hara shouted "Agreed but don't you think he hit the jackpot! ".
Bella blushed and Hara immediately covered up because he knew that he will die if he said anything else like that "I me-mean sister Bella!! ".I laughed a little at this site and took a seat "Well we will have another public marriage I will invite you all don't worry! ".
Owen slowly came near Bella and questioned " Is he cold towards you too?Then how did you fall for him?".I was feeling annoyed from Owen but Bella replied "Even if he is cold to the core,I would wake him like the spring wakes a flower and watch him grow, watch him bloom. Everything that he is,is mine.I would take a 100 century in hell in order to just feel a moment with him".Owen continued " Awwww... That is so sweet!!!! ".I blushed and accidentally stuttered " Le-lets eat dinner! ".Hara immediately continued Did he just stuttered..?? The perfect cold Edward Stuttered?!! ".
Everyone started laughing and I was seating still blushing and embarrassed. I was mortified, frozen to the spot. I felt traumatized. I couldn't believe that i was being attacked by my friends in this way, and in front of Bella too. I stood soaking in the cruel laughter, my head beginning to spin. Blushing would have been no problem, but what I did was go as red as a beetroot and radiate heat like a hot pan. I could have cooked a three course meal on my face. No-one could have missed it. I wanted the earth to open up and swallow me whole. I wished to 'do a Daphne' and drop through a scooby-doo style trap door in the floor. But there was no rescue from this embarrassment. It was absolute.
Third Person's POV
After the embarrassing moments they finally began with dinner and they were served a traditional Japanese dinner. Everyone began eating.
Edward saw Bella began and he immediately caught her hand she was confused and shocked. He then slowly picked out the bones of the fish. She could feel the heat growing in her cheeks. By now they must be beyond an attractive rosiness, other's must be marking her out as a social incompetent. She felt as if all her insecurities were writ large across her face and there was nowhere to hide. As her anxieties mounted they became a circle, like a song stuck on rrepeat, she tried to stop Edward
"I can do it myself Edward!!!.."
Edward did not stop and in a tone full of concern replied "No let me do it! What will happen if something happens to you.. If you don't take them out properly they might get struck in your throat my love!! ".
And little did Edward know that the three other friend's having dinner with them were traumatized by the behavior and sudden change of Edward not giving a damn to the thousands of beauties behind him and always being cold is now taking out bones from the fish like she is a little kid.
They were all (X﹏X)↷
Hara started shouting "Edward come on what happened to our cold innocent monk?!. How did he become so caring ,if love brings so much changes in a man then I better be a playboy for the rest of life! ".
Jasper laughed "That is true indeed! Ohh... Hara let me get the bones out of your fish".Jasper and Hara started imitating Bella and Edward to make fun of them and between this Our Owen was ฅ(๑⊙д⊙๑)ฅ!!
To see his cold ,focused and cruel brother becoming a prince Charming all of a sudden after all in his entire life he was the one who was supposed to be that.
Edward saw that Bella was becoming more and more uncomfortable so he gifted a cold death stare to Hara and Jasper
"You want to die? " He questioned and Hara and Jasper felt the chill and shock travelling through their bones. Hara protested immediately "Not fair! He is still like the old times with us but so sweet with our sister in law ".
After a little chit chat before Bella took the sip of the warm miso soup Edward stopped her he took the bowl in his hands and blew it and slowly took a sip and then gave it to Bella "Perfect temperature drink it now.It won't burn your toungue! ".
Bella nodded and took a sip and Edward gave her a loving look. Basically throughout the whole dinner,Edward was feeding Bella and even if a mosquito would bite her he would have bought an army 100 percent and on the other side of the table the three friends we're
︵‿︵(' ͡༎ຶ ͜ʖ ͡༎ຶ ')︵‿︵
Dead
After the long dinner they said there goodbyes and Jasper, Hara and Owen paid their respect to their sister who was a goddess to them now because she really changed this cold ice cream into a warm Spring roll...
At least for her.
Bella POV
It was a nice to have a dinner and meet Edward's friend. Hara, Jasper and Owen they all seemed very kind from heart. After the dinner Edward grabbed my hand tightly as we said our goodbye's the car soon appeared in front of us. Edward made an eye contact with Owen like he made an order and Owen in return made another serious eye contact. We got into the car and all the three of them waved me their goodbyes.
Edward questioned me immediately seeing me waving back to them "You liked them? ".I turned my face towards him and replied "Of course they were a little different but I liked them.. ".
" If you need anything during my absence they are the once you can contact they are really good by heart... And they should serve their sister in law well.. " He replied looking outside the window clearly jealous but at the same time he looked really tired and the villa was one hour away.
I smiled and offered him becoming a little shy "Edward you look tired come here and keep your head on my lap".
Edward immediately turned his face towards me and replied " It's ok.. Sweetheart we will be home in any minute... ".I sighed at the fact that this man lies really bad and still caring about the fact that my legs will hurt.
I touch his head lightly and push them and his body becoming adjusted to the new position and his head on my lap he slowly closed his eyes and I played with his hairs. He smiled and I continued
" Told you.. ".
Edward POV
I love to lay on her lap it just makes me forget about all the problems in my life. In the darkness her
embrace feels like a little touch of heaven, warm, together, cozy. I wish I could extend the night just so I could stay close to her for longer, safe in her embrace. Her arms wrapped right around me bring a peace I've never known before, a calming of the storms in my heart. I think it's her that gives me hope for the future.
Bella do you know
"When I rest at your side i wonder what they would have me do in order to make you mine forever? Lift the world in one arm? Push back the tide with only my mind?....".Bella giggled still focused playing with my hairs she replied "Give me all of you... ".I smiled and replied " It's already yours.. ".
I touched her soft cheeks with one of my hands and continued"Every person needs a harbour, a secure attachment of love - for without one we are in such pain, so lost, shutting down. Then life becomes a torture we are expected to endure, surviving, not living. Were it not for you, my love, there would be no relief, no emotional morphine I would be lonely forever waiting for someone to love me someone to actually care for me.But now that you are mine now I am finally happy"...
She made an eye contact with me immediately and questioned in a teasing manner "So is Mr Han addicted to me? ".
I smirked at her cuteness and replied immediately maintaining the eye contact "of course I am addicted to you - but for every reason that is pure and right. You are my safety and love, you are my life now.... I can't ever live without you... My every breath is your Bella.. Only yours"
Bella's lips alight on my cheek like a dew freckled petal caught in a breeze, so soft and with the smallest hint of coolness.All it leaves is a little wet mark ...a shallow pool of saliva on my cheek. But when she plants the kiss there I feel warmth spread through my limbs and my mind feels a pleasant buzz. Every good thing seems possible, likely even. And then I know I've found what I've been looking for, someone to show me what it means to be happy from the inside out, so my smile can be real and not a mask.
I pout and look towards her and complain "Not fair! Where is my real kiss? ".She giggled and slowly closed my eyes with her soft palms .."All in right time... ".
Bella POV
I slowly went and climbed the bed and faced towards his face and closed my eyes. After a few minutes I felt warm hands grabbing my waist and pulling me closer into a hug. I giggled as I touched his hairs "Aren't you sleeping? ".He replied in a lazy tone " Was... Why? Don't you like me hugging you? ".
I smiled and replied " your hug is stronger than anything I've ever known, as if holding me wasn't quite enough, you have to feel every ounce that I am press into every ounce that is you. In that moment of feeling you so close I am awake somehow, more alive than I have been in so very long. For there are times I am as a butterfly who yearns for the cocoon, to be safe within walls, protected. That's what I feel. It helps. So if it would be okay, if it's what you want too, wrap those arms around me every chance the universe is kind enough to bring. For in this world, this is our gold, our food and pure rain... it is the love that makes everything else possible."
He immediately buried his face in my chest like a little kid.I smiled and we both fell asleep. Next morning I woke up first immediately took a shower and went with a casual look today that was a green romper and messy bun. I went towards the bathroom once I got ready and Edward was awake rubbing his eyes which were getting irritated by the sunlight. He looked at me and smiled "Early today huh?? ".I smiled and walked towards him "You should take a shower now!!! ".He smiled and walked towards the bathroom. While I was sipping on my coffee and reading the book. Edward got out all dressed up in his black suit. He approached his hands towards me " Breakfast my love? ".I smiled and we walked towards our Break fast table.
