Bella POV

Two months had flown by. Novmeber came fast along with me going back to school to become a councler for students. Alicen is loving school and we had partically adopted Stella. They would go back and forth going to eachothers houses, playing untill right before dîner and had spent the night a couple times.

Edward had gone back to train last month. I don't know where he is, what he's doing. Because I can't. We had written a few letters but with Lilly and school for me, and training and sleep for him, there wasn't really time.

But tonight, we were able to Skype. I had to get a lap haut, retour au début for school and they already have it at his base for them to be able to talk to their families.

I quickly turned on the computer and rang him. It only rang once before he popped up on my screen.

I had forgotten how beautiful he actually was. The only thing that had changed was he now had a very sexy 5 o'clock shadow and a black guitare sitting on his lap.

"Even plus beautful than I remember." His voice was even smoother. My memories did nothing for the real thing.

"Hey." I smiled. "I think the stash." I pointed to his face.

He rubbed it a laughed. "I will shave it off before I get home. I don't really have alot of showering time."

"Don't." I shook my head. "I like it." He smiled.
"Who's guitar?" I asked.

"Oh, it belongs to the base. They have been letting me borrowing it for a bit." He ran his hand through his hair.

"Oh? What for?"

"Would toi like me to montrer you?" He smiled.

I nodded.

He started struming.

I miss the sound of your voice
And I miss the rush of your skin
And I miss the still of the silence
As toi breathe out and I breathe in

If I could walk on water
If I could tell toi what's next
I'd make toi believe
I'd make toi forget

So come on, get higher, loosen my lips
Faith and desire and the balançoire, swing of your hips
Just pull me down hard
And drown me in love
So come on, get higher, loosen my lips
Faith and desire and the balançoire, swing of your hips
Just pull me down hard
And drown me in love

I miss the sound of your voice
Loudest thing in my head
And I ache to remember
All the violent, sweet
Perfect words that toi said

If I could walk on water
If I could tell toi what's next
I'd make toi believe
I'd make toi forget

So come on, get higher, loosen my lips
Faith and desire and the balançoire, swing of your hips
Just pull me down hard
And drown me in love
So come on, get higher, loosen my lips
Faith and desire and the balançoire, swing of your hips
Just pull me down hard
And drown me in love

I miss the pull of your heart
I taste the sparks on your tongue
I see anges and devils
And God, when toi come on
Hold on, hold on, hold on, hold on

Sing sha la la la
Sing sha la la la la

Ooo Ooo Ooo...
So come on, get higher, loosen my lips
Faith and desire and the balançoire, swing of your hips
Just pull me down hard
And drown me in love
So come on, get higher, loosen my lips
Faith and desire and the balançoire, swing of your hips
Just pull me down hard
And drown me, drown me in love

It's all wrong, it's all wrong
It's all wrong, it's so right
So come on, get higher
So come on and get higher
'Cause everything works, love
Everything works in your arms.

I wiped a tear I didn't relize had fallen down my cheek. "Thank you." I whispered.

"Mommy!" Alicen called from down stairs.

"I'm up here!" I called down.

"She rides the bus now?" He asked.

I nodded. "It was easier."

"Bathroom. Be right back." He smiled.

"Alicen! Come in Mommy's room." I called to her.

"Are toi okay Mommy?" She walked in. Her curls bouncing around her face.

"I'm talking to someone. Come say hi."

She sighed and walked over to the computer. Edward wasn't back yet, so she couldn't see it was him just yet.

"Where are they?" she asked looking at the empty room on the screen.

"I'm back." Both of them froze at the sight of eachother.

"Daddy!" Alicen squealed.

Edward just smiled. Tears in his eyes.

"I miss you, Daddy. Mommy doesn't play soldier right."

We both laughed and he wiped his eyes. "I miss toi too, Lillt soldier."

"When are toi comming home?" She asked.

"Soon, Baby."

"Okay. I l’amour toi Daddy."

"I l’amour toi to, Alicen."

She hopped down out of my lap and ran to her room.

"Do toi know exactly when toi will be home?" I asked.

"Not sure. Before December, I know that much." He sighed.

"Okay." I nodded.

"I miss you." He told me.

"I miss toi too."

"See toi soon."

"Yeah." I smiled. "See toi soon."

And we signed off.

I hadn't told him I loved him yet. Yes I really really loved him. And not that crazy 'I l’amour toi but I like him' l’amour like it was in highschool. It's complete contentment. Happy where I am. Love.

Edward POV

Thanksgiving was two days away. That's exactly how long it would take me to get home. Everyone but Bella knew I was comming home. Even Alicen.

"Hey, Edward!" Seth called and jogged aross the base gym.

"Hey, Seth." I threw my bag over my shoulder.

"Thank you." He told me.

"For what?" I asked.

"For montrer everyone here that family is plus importent than anything."

I looked around and noticed everyone staring at me with a smug smile on their faces.

"You l’amour her." He smiled.

"What?"

"Bella. I heard toi talking to her last night. toi l’amour her." It wasn't a question.

"Yeah." I nodded. "But it's not that 'I think I want to be with her love'. It's that, 'I don't want anyone else but her' love. That, 'I can't live without her' love."

He smiled. "Well don't leave her waiting." He slapped my shoulder. "Go get her."

I smiled and pulled him in for a hug. "Thanks man." I smiled. "See toi guys!" I yelled and threw a wave over my shoulder to 'see ya's and 'later's.

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

The longest plane ride of my life. I walked through the termanal and picked up my bag. I ran to the bathroom and changed out of my uniform and into a white button up shirt, Bella's favori tie and black dress pants. I put my boots in my back and threw on my black converse.

I got off the escalater and spotted Jasper.

"Hey, Man." I gave him a quick hug.

"Hey." He smiled. "Let's get toi accueil to your l’amour and kid."

It must have been noticable.

The ride accueil was quite, but comfortable. It gave be time to calm myself and think. I needed to tell her I loved her before she told me. I wanted to say it first.

"You ready man?" He asked.

I hadn't even noticed we had stopped.

Bella POV

"Aw, Rosie come on." Emmett wined.

"No, Emmett. Other people have to eat too. Where are your kids? You're supposed to be watching them while we do this." Rose picked up the pies from infront of him before he could sneak a taste.

He sighed and stood up. He was matching Carlisle, Jasper, and Charlie. A white shirt, a tie of somekind, black pants and converse.

All the girls in skinny jeans, long sweaters, and heels. Alicen and Elie were in dark orange dresses that had different colored leaves around the bottom, brown tights and dress shoes.

"Ladies. I'm back." Jasper took the jars of canneberge sauce out of the plastic bag and set them on the counter.

"It's about time." Alice smirked. "You have been gone forever. Where on earth did toi go?"

"The store." He smiled. They were really weird.

"Oh, we found the sauce." I laughed to him.

"Damn." he sighed. "Oh, well." She shurgged. "Now we have some for suivant year."

All the girls smiled. "Okay. Enough with the weird. Get out. You're doig it." I pushed him out of the cuisine and started stiring the potatoes.

"Mmm." I froze. "Something smells good." I knew that voice from anywhere. I knew it as well as I knew my daughter.

I turned slowly noticeing that all the girls had left the cuisine and I was now face to face with "Edward." I whispered.

"Bella." He smiled.
