I felt warm and comfortable hugging a pillow the next morning. 

"Edward?" I asked groggily.

"I'm here." His voice came from a chair across the room. "Your teeth started chattering so I thought I would give you a break." He said putting down the travel magazine he was reading. I sat up to look at him.

"Did we really get married yesterday?" I asked rubbing my head as if to jump start my brain.

"We did." He smiled.

"Okay good. I just thought it was one of the most elaborate dreams I've ever had." I said stretching and tossing off the covers. "What time is it?"

"Here or the time we are used to?" 

"Here." I clarified. 

"One."

"One? You let me sleep that long? Now we can't do anything today."

"I've got some stuff we can do. We can check out New York City. With my driving will be there in under an hour." I jumped out of bed and ran to the bathroom. New York? With Edward? Sounds like a good…when I entered the bathroom Alice's nightie reminded me of something I wanted to do, what Edward and I still hadn't done. I smiled and closed the bathroom door. Thank you Alice I thought to myself. 

"So what do you want to do in New York? We could see the sites, I can take you to my favorite places since I used to live there." He said through the door.

"You lived there?" I asked as I brushed my teeth and combed through my hair. I had to look good. 

"I did. I liked it but I had to stay inside way to much and I had to travel to eat, more work then it was worth." 

"Was this when you weren't with Carlisle?" I had to stall him, keep him talking, looking good was taking longer than I expected. 

"Uh, yeah it was." Not something he wanted to continue discussing. "I'm sure we can find somewhere really good for you to eat while there, if you don't want to eat here. It's all up to you." His back was turned to me when I opened the door. "So what do you want to do to-" He turned and froze; he looked as if he had stopped breathing and blinking at the same time. I smiled at him, he was still wearing his dress shirt and tuxedo pants. After a moment he blinked and scanned me up and down. Taking in the white fabric that Alice picked out, which went to the top of my knees. A blush covered my cheeks as he looked me over. I suddenly felt inadequate, like he shouldn't be looking at me in that way. 

Finally Edward gulped, yeah gulped like in the movies. That boosted my confidence immensely. I took a step toward him, he didn't move a muscle. So I closed the gap between us.  He gazed down at me.

"I know what I want to do today." I said simply. I was hoping it was the same thing he wanted to do. He remained immobile but he started breathing again.  I stood on my tip toes and kissed his lips softly. He was the one that deepened the kiss but he didn't pull me closer. Only his lips were touching me. I lowered back down to my heels.

"What's wrong?" I asked worried, that he didn't want me.

"If I touch you," he started. "Then it will be real, all of it. The life I want with you will be happening." He said. I felt my heart beat speed up, which I know he heard.

"Then let's make it real, together." I touched his cheek then let my hand find the back of his head and pulled his mouth down to mine. This time his kiss was prepared and hungrier. His arm came around my waist and pulled me to his body and his other hand went behind my head. He took a step into me and walked me backward toward the bed. The back of my legs touched the bed and Edward slowly lowered me down.
