Reader of Edward's Mind....

Hiya all!!
Well there was a question bugging me as I was reading Eclipse for the umpteenth time last night.
In Chapter 23---"Monster"
Jacob asks--"Didn't u have a nice night then?"
Edward replies--"It wasn't the worst night of my life."
Jacob asks--"Did it make the top ten?"
Edward says--"Possibly."
And then Edward goes on to say---"But, if I had been able to take ur place last night,it would not have made the top ten best nights of my life.Dream of that."

I am having a lot of opinions regarding the last part that Edward said.And I am thoroughly confused.So can anyone clear my head about what Edward actually meant??
And are you anticpating Edward Cullen as the narrative in Midnight Sun.I personally feel it will make this series even more lovable,and probably will take it to another level.And may be it would clear out a lot of Edward's perspective.I as a reader often feel puzzled at some of his reactions...wish I could read minds like him.So may be Midnight Sun will clear out a lot of things....
