CHAPTER 10 - LOVE
Bella's POV
In the weeks following my birthday, life began to change.
Edward
and I were virtually inseparable. In fact, all of the Cullen "kids" and
I were. The six of us had classes together, spent the majority of our
evenings at Emmett and Rose's apartment, and spent weekends in Forks
with our families. I was already close to Alice, but I was also growing
closer to
Rose, and the more time I spent with her, the more I realized
what a humble and caring person she was.
Since Christmas, Charlie
had started spending a fair share of his free time with Carlisle, and
he'd quickly found his own spot with the Cullens. For the first time in
years I felt like I was part of a real family, and it made me smile to
know that Charlie felt the same. I knew it was hard for him to adjust
to, especially after being alone for so long when Renee left, but he and
Carlisle had developed a solid friendship, and Charlie was starting to
come out of his shell.
The night of my birthday served as an
official confirmation that I was truly in love with Edward.
After he
gave me my "gift," we laid in bed talking for hours, before I finally
fell asleep in his arms. I didn't have much experience in the dating
arena, but in all the years leading up to my move to
Washington, I'd
never encountered a guy who had the effect on me that Edward did. From
the very moment I met him I felt a deep connection to him. I had bared
my soul to him on more than one occasion, and I trusted him with my life
– literally. Even though we'd only been formally dating for a little
over a month, I couldn't picture my life without him in it, couldn't
imagine a day when I wouldn't get to look forward to being by his side.
Of
course, the night of my birthday left me very satisfied as well, which
in turn led to my longing for more of Edward's touch. He was so chaste
with me most of the time, stealing kisses and engaging in occasional
heavy petting when we were together. We'd rounded third base a few more
times since that night, but he still hadn't let me give him any kind of
pleasure and, to be honest, I was getting frustrated. I didn't expect
him to want to go straight to bed with me when we'd only started dating,
but everyone has needs and mine were growing more and more intense as
the days went by. I had to resist the urge to jump on top of him and
take him against his will every time I was around him.
Needless to
say, when I found out that my oh-so-loving boyfriend was planning a big
night on the town in Seattle for Valentine's Day, I was anxious as
opposed to excited. I didn't doubt that I'd be able to make it through a
night of wining and dining with him, but I wasn't sure if I could keep
things PG rated when our evening came to a close.
"Where are you
taking me on Monday?" I hated whining, but I was desperate, and this was
my last resort when it came to getting information out of Edward.
The
corners of his mouth pulled up in a smile and he shook his head, fixing
his gaze on me and sighing. "For the hundredth time, it's a surprise.
I'm not going to cave so you might as well stop trying to get me to."
I
pushed my lower lip out in a pout and scrunched my nose. This trick had
worked a few times over the course of our six-week courtship and I was
counting on it working right now as well. Edward smiled and pulled me
into his arms, resting my head against his chest and running his fingers
through my freshly washed hair.
"That whole lip trick thing isn't
going to work tonight, baby." He kissed my forehead and my eyelids. "As
much as I'd love to tell you everything I have in store, it's going to
be way better for you if it's kept a surprise. Besides, it's only four
days away at this point. It's not like you have to wait much longer to
find out."
I traced the outline of his abs with my fingertip. "I
know, but I hate waiting and the whole element of surprise makes me
anxious." I bit my lower lip and looked up at him. "It's not fair that
you won't let me help plan anything either. What if I wanted to do
something nice for you on Valentine's Day?"
"Being with me is the
best thing you could have possibly given me, for any occasion." He
pulled me up so I was facing him and wrapped his arms around my
shoulders. "Please just let me have one more day to plan something
special for you? I swear, after Monday, you can plan sixty different
things for me and I won't protest at all."
"Mmmm, are you willing
to promise me that?" I mumbled against his lips. I gave him a soft,
chaste kiss and smiled. "That you won't protest at all? I think some
type of punishment needs to be lined up in the event that you go back on
your word."
He wiggled his eyebrows suggestively at me. "What type of punishment did you have in mind exactly, Ms. Swan?"
I
tipped my head back and tapped my index finger against my chin,
pretending to be lost in thought.
"Well, I could make you spend an
entire day at the mall with Alice. That would surely teach you a lesson." He threw his hand over his heart and groaned dramatically.
"Not the mall, Bella. Please, anything but that. I might never return home to you if you send me off with her."
I
smirked. "Point taken." I ran my fingers over his shoulders and leaned
forward to bite his neck gently. "Perhaps I'll take a lifelong vow of
chastity. Then again, I really wouldn't be depriving you of anything
with that." I meant to sound humorous but my last few words came out a
little edgy.
"Bella…" Edward sighed and ran a hand through his
hair. "I want our first time together as a couple to be something we
both remember. Neither of us is new to this territory, believe me I'm
well aware of that, but that doesn't mean that we aren't new to one
another. I don't want us to rush into something and then turn around in a
few months and regret it."
"I could never regret allowing myself
to be that close to you." I leaned my head on his shoulder and breathed
his scent in, reveling in the calming effect it had on me.
"And I
would never forgive myself if I allowed us to get too close, too soon."
He ran his hands up and down my back, lowering his face to mine and
pressing his lips against the top of my head.
"Please be understanding,
Bella. This isn't easy for me either. I promise you, it will be soon."
My head shot up. "Soon as in on Monday night?" I draped my arms over his shoulders and leaned my forehead against his.
"Soon
as in … soon." He kissed the tip of my nose and winked at me. I groaned
and flopped back on his bed, resting my head against his fluffy pillow.
"Edward Anthony Masen Cullen, you are nothing but a tease." He raised his eyebrows in shock at my use of his full name.
"And
you, sweet Isabella, are nothing but a naughty, naughty girl." He held
his hand out to me.
"Now, it's best we get moving. We're both going to
get punished – and not in a good way – by my sister if we don't get down
to Hopps."
A smile danced on my lips and I took his hand,
allowing him to pull me up from the bed. I wrapped my arms around his
neck and stood up on my toes, pressing my mouth against his hungrily. I
felt his lips part and I took the opportunity to slip my tongue inside,
exploring his mouth and grabbing his hair in my fists. His hands went to
my waist and pulled me so my body was flush against his. His erection
didn't go unnoticed, and I swayed my hips back and forth, rubbing the
bulge against my thighs. Just as he was about to deepen the kiss I
pulled away, shaking my index finger in front of his face and clicking
my tongue.
"Baby steps, Mr. Cullen." He groaned in frustration and threw his hands up in the air.
"Touché, Bella. Touché."
I
grabbed my purse and coat and walked into the hallway. I waited for him
to lock the room up before grabbing his hand and leading him downstairs
to the parking area.
"For the record, I do appreciate the thought
you're putting into all of this. Granted I don't have loads of
experience in this area, but I can say I've never been with a guy who's actually tried to wait to get into my pants."
Edward
stopped walking and spun me around to face him. His hands cupped my
face and his golden eyes burned into mine. "I would wait a thousand
years for anything if it meant getting to spend one more day with you."
The emotion behind his words rocked me and I felt tears spring to my
eyes. He wiped them away with his thumbs and kissed me softly and
slowly.
"Thank you," I whispered. He held the car door open for me
and I dropped down into the passenger seat. My lips tingled from his
kiss and a whole flock of butterflies took up residence in my stomach as
his words played over in my mind.
I was earth-shatteringly in love with Edward Cullen. And I was going to tell him on Monday night.
Tanya's POV
I
drummed my fingers against the vinyl tabletop and checked my watch for
the fifth time. He was twenty minutes late and hadn't bothered to call
or text to let me know why. If he doesn't show in another ten minutes, you're leaving, my brain told me.
Moments later the bell attached to the diner door jingled and I looked up to see him walking towards me.
"Sorry
I'm late." Jacob tossed his jacked in the booth and slid down next to
it. "My dad decided to come up with a list of shit he needs from Safeway
at the last fucking minute." His cheeks flamed red at the mention of
his dad. He seemed embarrassed by his living situation. If only he knew
that I could and would never care about any of the mundane details in
his life.
I decided to go easy on him. After all, he would be the
key player in my latest game. "No worries, I was a little late getting
here myself. Would you like some coffee?" I pushed the pot towards him
and he shook his head.
"I don't drink that stuff. It's too
bitter," he said, flagging the waitress down and ordering a Cherry Coke
instead. "So what brings you to Forks anyway? I know it's not the
Cullens, and it certainly isn't Bella…" His voice trailed off and he
fidgeted uncomfortably. I knew he was regretting his words and expecting
me to react, most likely with anger. I pushed down the feelings of
resentment and plastered a smile on my face.
"Actually, I just wanted to see you." Surprise flickered over his face, followed by smug happiness.
"That's … super cool." He ordered breakfast for himself and looked at me expectantly.
"I'm
not very hungry. I'll just stick to the coffee, thanks." I smiled at
the waitress and she wandered back toward the kitchen. It was time to
turn on the sugary sweet Tanya – the one who always got who and what she wanted. "I've been thinking about you a lot lately."
"You have?"
"Of
course." I slid my hand across the table and traced the outline of his
palm with my index finger.
"I've always found you attractive, Jacob.
Even when I was with Edward, it was you I thought of when he kissed me."
Jacob's
eyes grew wide and a bright red blush crept into his cheeks. He
swallowed hard and looked down at where our hands were on the table.
"Wow. I never knew that. I mean I don't really compare to Cullen…" I put
my finger up to his lips and silenced him.
"You're right, you
don't compare to Edward at all." Jacob's expression fell, but I
continued. "You surpass him, Jacob. In fact, I'd have to argue that it's
Edward who doesn't compare to you."
"Wow. Thank you, I guess." A new smile spread across his face and the waitress set his plate down in front of him.
"You're welcome," I said with false sincerity. "Bella never deserved you. I can tell she hurt you just like Edward hurt me."
Jacob
shifted uncomfortably in his seat. "Honestly, Bella and I were never
together. We had an arrangement." He shrugged and stuffed a forkful of
pancakes in his mouth.
"Keep telling yourself that. I'm pretty sure it was Bella who had the arrangement and you who got the short end of the stick."
Jacob
put his fork down and looked at me. "If Edward makes Bella happy, then
I'm happy for her.
It's that simple. Why are we still talking about them
anyway? I thought we were trying to have a nice breakfast."
I
smiled apologetically and reached out to touch his hand once again. "I'm
sorry. No more talk of the happy couple, I promise." I took a sip of my
coffee and looked around the diner. "Do you come here often?"
Jacob
nodded. "My dad and Bella's dad used to come here pretty regularly when
I was younger and
I'd always get stuck coming with. Now a couple guys
from the res head here every Tuesday night for dinner and I usually tag
along."
"We should get out of here for the day. Go to Port Angeles
or something. I'd love to spend some time with you and get to know you
better."
Jacob gulped down the rest of his soda and gently
squeezed my fingers. "That sounds like a terrific idea. I'll take care
of the check and meet you out by my car?" I nodded and strode towards
the exit.
My plan was going off without a hitch. I felt a
momentary pang of guilt, but it subsided quickly. Jacob would probably
end up getting hurt, but I couldn't let myself think of that. His
heartbreak would be a small price to pay in the scheme of things.
I
smiled at him as he lumbered across the parking lot towards me. He held
the door open for me and closed it after I was seated. I buckled my
seat belt and stared out the windshield.
"Can I ask you for a favor, Jacob" I looked over at him and gazed up from under my eyelashes.
"Sure."
"Please
don't say anything to Bella or the Cullens about us spending time
together." I wrung my hands together in an attempt to look anxious.
"It's not that I don't want them to know, I'm sure they'll find out
eventually, but I don't want to rock the boat any more than it's already
been rocked."
Jacob bit his lip and thought for a moment before smiling gently. "Sure, I can keep a secret."
I reached over and ran my fingers down the side of his face before leaning in and kissing his cheek softly.
Jacob
was buying everything just like I thought he would. If things went as
planned, I'd have him eating out of the palm of my hand in a few weeks,
which would give me the access to Bella that I needed.
Now I just had to figure out exactly what I was going to do with the sad, fragile human when I finally got to her.
Edward's POV
After three rings I was ready to hang up the phone. Just as I was about to hit the end button Alice picked up.
"I'm sorry, my phone was across the apartment. What's up?"
"I
just wanted to make sure everything was in place for dinner tonight." I
fidgeted with the sleeves of my sweater nervously. Alice and I had
spent the past week working hard to plan the perfect
Valentine's Day
dinner for our group. Of course I had something special planned for
Bella and I after
dinner as well, but I wanted to make sure the entire
evening went off without a hitch.
"For the tenth time, we're good
to go. I called Aqua this afternoon to confirm our reservations." Alice
sighed in exasperation. "Bella is getting a pedicure with Rose right
now, so you can head to the hotel. We'll have her at the restaurant at
six sharp."
I nodded even though I knew Alice couldn't see me. "Thank you Alice. I could never have pulled this off without you."
"You're
welcome. You know how much I love you – and Bella!" Alice and I said
our goodbyes and
I made sure I had everything I'd need for the evening. I
slipped Bella's two gifts into the top of my
overnight bag and headed
off for my car.
The Four Seasons Hotel was only about five miles
from campus. I valet parked and checked in. Our suite was on the eighth
floor and overlooked the Puget Sound. I picked up the in-room phone and
dialed the concierge. Ten minutes later everything was in place for our
post-dinner evening. I sat down on the edge of the bed and ran my hands
through my hair. I didn't have to get ready for another hour and
everything else was already taken care of.
I planned on telling
Bella I loved her tonight. It was soon, but it felt like it was the
right thing to do, and I couldn't hold back any longer. I was ready to
stand on the top of the Space Needle and shout it out to the entire
world.
I didn't know how Bella would react, or if she'd even say
it back, but I didn't care at this point. What mattered was making sure
she knew exactly how I felt about her and exactly how far I would go for
her. If I had it my way, I would spend every day of the rest of my life
with this woman. I was secretly hoping that at some point in the
not-so-far-off future she'd agree to spend every day of the rest of her
life with me.
A knock on the hotel door broke my thoughts.
"This
just arrived at the front desk for you, Mr. Cullen." I handed the
bellman a twenty and thanked him. I looked down at the black box in my
hands and shook my head in amazement. Alice, I thought to myself.
"La Perla" was embossed in gold print across the top of the box and an
elegant gold ribbon held the box shut. I dialed my sister's number and
waited patiently for her to pick up.
"If I call the restaurant one
more time they're going to cancel our reservations." Alice sounded
irritated. I laughed and set the package down on the edge of the bed.
"I
have faith in your ability to confirm dinner reservations, don't
worry." I walked across the room and stared out the floor-to-ceiling
windows. The sun was starting to go down, painting the surface of the
sound in a stunning display of pink, yellow, and orange hues. "I was
just curious as to whether or not you knew anything about this box of
lingerie that was just delivered to my suite."
"Hang on a second."
I heard Alice mumble something to whomever she was with and then she
was back on the phone. "The La Perla made it there I take it?"
"Is this your doing?" I fingered the gold ribbon and shuddered as I thought of what might be hiding
inside the box.
"Yes, it's my doing. I thought it might be a nice tie-in to the paper portion of your gift."
"Oh." Everything clicked into place for me. "I think I'm with you now. So I should point that out when she opens it?"
I
heard Alice's palm slap against her forehead. "Yes, Edward, you should
point that out. Tell her it's for her to wear when you're together."
"I'm
sorry, I'm sorry. I've never had anyone to buy this stuff for, Alice.
It was never like this with
Tanya. I have no clue what I'm doing."
"It's
alright Edward, you just have horribly inopportune timing." I heard
more muffled sounds in the background. "I have to go. Jasper and Emmett
are expecting us at the apartment."
I looked at the clock and
gasped when I realized it was already five. "Shit, I didn't realize what
time it was. I have to get ready."
I took a quick shower, shaved,
and brushed my teeth. I put on the suit I'd picked out for the evening
and attempted to style my hair. As usual, I couldn't tame the wild
locks, so I gave up and grabbed the velvet covered box of chocolates I'd
purchased for Bella. I made sure I had everything and called the valet
desk to bring the car around.
I was a few minutes early, so I
waited outside the restaurant. It was a beautiful winter night in the
city. The clouds cleared out that morning and a bright blanket of stars
had taken their place. It was chilly, but not unbearably cold, and the
air outside the restaurant smelled like a combination of seafood and
salt water.
I turned around to check the street just as the
Escalade pulled up. I watched with anticipation as the girls started
filing out of the back of the SUV. My breath caught in my throat and a
smile spread across my face when I saw her.
She looked stunning.
She'd straightened her hair and it hung down to the middle of her back.
Her
face was coated in a very light layer of makeup, which was my
favorite look on her. She wore a short black dress that had a bow around
the waist and ruffled out at the bottom, with a pair of black stiletto
heels. She walked towards me, taking my hand and kissing me hungrily. I
kissed her back and whispered in her ear. "You look absolutely
stunning."
"Thank you," she said, and the blush I knew so well
crept into her cheeks. I held the restaurant door open and she walked
inside, followed by Alice and Rosalie.
"Thank you for everything, Alice." Alice smiled at me and squeezed my hand.
After
we were seated, I handed Bella the box of chocolates. "Happy
Valentine's Day, beautiful." She took the chocolates and handed me a
card.
"Thank you. Happy Valentine's Day, Edward." I set the card
next to my plate and took her hand in mine beneath the table. She sighed
contentedly beside me and I couldn't stop the smile that lit up my
face.
The night had barely begun and I could already tell it would go down in my memory as the epitome of perfection.
Bella's POV
Dinner was amazing.
When
Alice told me we were going to Aqua, I squealed and jumped around our
dorm room like a little girl. I'd been dying to try the restaurant since
before I even moved, after reading about it in a travel magazine Renee
had lying around the beach house. I wanted to spend time with Edward
too, but I spent the majority of my day fantasizing about what it would
be like to sink my teeth into their seafood.
The restaurant itself
was beautiful, and being there with Edward made it perfect. I'd never
celebrated Valentine's Day before, and I couldn't help but think that if
by some chance Edward and I split in the future, his follower would
have one hell of a time living up to this.
I expected us all to
leave as a group when dinner was finished, but instead I was whisked
away to Edward's Audi while the rest of our friends piled back into the
Escalade. I frowned at Alice, but she just winked at me and gave me a
small wave of her hand. Edward drove the car several blocks up the
street and pulled in the turnaround at the Four Seasons.
"Welcome
back, Mr. Cullen." The valet attendant opened our doors and I climbed
out, pulling down on the bottom of my short dress. Edward came around
the car and took my hand, leading me inside the luxury hotel.
"So
this is where you were hiding all afternoon." I'd stayed at nice hotels
when Renee, Phil, and I traveled, but none of them were quite like this
one. Edward led me to the elevators and wrapped his arm around my waist
while we waited.
"I couldn't very well have you figuring out my
surprise before dinner." He nuzzled his nose against my neck and nipped
playfully at my shoulder. "It was hard enough getting Alice to agree to
keep her mouth shut for the last week."
I rolled my eyes and leaned into him. "I should have known she was in on this."
"Oh,
she was only in on dinner. I thought this portion of the evening up
entirely on my own."
Edward smiled at me and pushed the button for the
eighth floor.
I lifted the lid on the box of chocolates he'd given
me and picked one up, biting into it and savoring the rich taste. I
held the other half out to Edward, offering it to him, but he shook his
head no. I shrugged and popped the candy in my mouth.
"At least you didn't blindfold me this time," I joked. Edward's eyes flashed mischievously and he gave my butt a soft smack.
"We still have a whole night ahead of us, baby. There's plenty of time for blindfolding."
"Yeah,
right. That would go against your chastity rules, wouldn't it?" I
followed him down the hall until we came to a stop outside a door marked
"809." Edward slid the key card into the slot above the doorknob and
turned to face me.
"I'm going to pretend that never came out of
your mouth." He tightened his grip on my hand and gazed into my eyes.
"Are you ready?"
I took a deep breath. "Ready as I'll ever be." He
opened the door and stepped aside so I could enter. I walked into
living room area of our suite, which contained a mini-bar, sofa, two arm
chairs, and a
large flat screen TV. Edward took my coat and hung it in
the closet.
"Follow me." He took my hand once again and led me
into the bedroom. The lights were dimmed and soft jazz music filled the
room. Two of the walls were comprised of floor-to-ceiling windows, which
overlooked the Puget Sound. In the distance, the lights of Bainbridge
Island twinkled against the dark night sky. An arrangement of red roses
sat on a table at the foot of the bed, along with a chilled bottle of
champagne and two flutes.
"What is all this?" I whispered. My eyes were quickly filling with tears and I blinked several times to hold them back.
"I
wanted our first Valentine's Day together to be one we'd both
remember." He sat on the edge of the bed and patted the comforter. I
sunk down onto the space next to him and let out a breath I hadn't
realized I was holding.
"Every minute I spend with you is memorable." I reached out and pulled him towards me. Our lips met in a sensual kiss.
"Time for presents!" He reached behind him and produced a gift box and an envelope. "Open the envelope first."
"I
thought we agreed not to get each other anything, Edward. Besides, the
room and the flowers are more than enough." He reached out and put his
index finger against my lips.
"No protesting. Just open."
I
felt the corners of my mouth curl up into a smile. I tore open the
envelope and a few pieces of paper fell out on my lap. I picked them up
and looked them over. It took me a minute to realize they were
airline-boarding passes.
"Paris?" I looked up at him in
astonishment. I'd always wanted to travel to France, but I knew I'd
never shared this information with him. Alice, I thought. Her and
I had discussed our travels in-depth, and I was fairly certain I'd told
her all about my desire to visit the City of Love on more than one
occasion.
"They're for the second week in August." His eyes burned
into mine and my stomach started to flutter. "You've always wanted to
travel there and it's a city I love to visit. I thought it would be the
perfect way for us to wrap up the summer."
I looked down at the
tickets again, noticing we'd be flying back two weeks after we left
here. My mind wandered and I imagined traveling through France with
Edward. We'd share a kiss beneath the
Eiffel Tower, walk the streets of
Paris eating pastries and sipping hot drinks, and make love for hours in
what I assumed would be a luxurious hotel suite.
"Thank you," I
breathed, bringing myself back to the reality that sat before me. He
pushed the box towards me and grinned sheepishly.
"This is for our
trip." I looked down at the box and saw the words "La Perla" staring
back up at me.
I was pretty sure I had started to blush, but I swallowed
my embarrassment and pulled at the delicate gold ribbon. I lifted the
top off the box and unfolded the tissue paper. I took the items out and
laid them on the bed beside me.
"Wow." It was all I could say. The
lingerie was sexy, navy blue in color and lacy. There was a skimpy bra
that left little to the imagination along with a matching thong and
garter belt. I looked up at Edward. "I love it."
He reached out
and took the gifts from me, placing them all in the La Perla box and
setting it floor next to the bed. He reached behind himself once more,
producing a final, familiar colored blue box.
"One last thing," he said softly. He placed the small box in my hand and I tugged the white ribbon off. Tiffany's again,
I thought in astonishment. He really went overboard with holidays. I
lifted the lid and gasped when I saw the small black velvet box sitting
inside. Edward took the blue box from me and pulled the smaller velvet
one from it. He tipped my chin up so I was looking in his eyes and gave
me a chaste kiss on the cheek.
"I know what you're thinking, and
don't worry, that's not what's inside here," he said with a chuckle.
I
sighed in relief. I wasn't quite ready for that. Not yet at
least. Edward continued. "You are the most amazing person I've ever met,
Bella. You're beautiful, intelligent, witty, and funny. You have the
kindest soul of any human – or vampire – I've ever known."
He
looked down at his lap and then back up at me. "I love you, Bella." He
flipped the lid on the box open and held it out to me. I looked down at
the beautiful ring. It was white gold with the word 'love' spelled in
round diamonds across the top. He lifted it from the box and slid it on
the ring finger of my right hand. "A perfect fit, just like you and me."
I
looked into his eyes and felt a few tears spill over onto my cheeks. I
cupped his face in my hands and pressed my forehead against his. "I love
you too, Edward."
His mouth crashed against mine and his tongue
slid between my lips. I kicked my heels off and lay back on the bed,
pulling him down with me. He deepened our kiss and his hands ran down my
sides, brushing over my breasts before settling on my hips. He pulled
my bottom lip between his and sucked gently on it before planting a
trail of kisses down my jaw and onto my neck.
"I think we've both
waited long enough for this." His words sent a stream of electricity
through me. I shivered involuntarily and he brought his face back to
mine. I didn't need any time to think about how I wanted to answer the
question in his eyes.
"Yes." I slid my hands beneath his suit coat
and pushed it down his shoulders. He leaned back for a moment and
shrugged it off, tossing the fabric to the floor. His lips were on mine
again while I worked at unbuttoning his shirt.
"You're so
beautiful, Bella. Every part of you is so, so beautiful." He kneeled,
pulling me up with him. I tugged his shirt out of his pants and pushed
it down his arms. He peeled it off all the way and wrapped his arms
around me, pulling down on the zipper of my dress. I leaned forward and
kissed his chest, running my tongue over his nipple and biting down on
it gently. His hands gripped my shoulders and a low moan escaped his
lips. I shrugged out of his grip and stood up.
"Stand up and take
your shoes off." I surprised myself with my assertiveness. Edward looked
surprised as well, but did as I asked, standing up and kicking his
shoes off. I reached behind myself and pulled my zipper the rest of the
way down, allowing my dress to slide off me and onto the floor.
Edward's
eyes traveled the length of my body, stopping to appreciate my naked
breasts and black satin thong. His eyes met mine and I could see the
hunger and wanting in them. I kneeled in front of him and began undoing
his belt.
"Bella…" He reached down to stop me but I swatted his
hands away. I pulled his belt off and threw it on the floor with my
dress. Before I could continue, he'd unbuttoned his fly and begun to
push his
pants down.
"Let me. Please." I put my hands on top of
his and stopped him. He nodded and placed his hands on my head instead. I
pressed my lips against his abdomen, laughing when the hair that
trailed off into his boxer briefs tickled my nose. His cock was hard,
painfully hard I guess, and it strained against the light fabric. I
hooked my fingers in the waistband and slid them down slowly.
I sucked in a breath when I saw the sight before me. Edward was very
well endowed. I wrapped my fingers around his shaft and rubbed my thumb
over the tip, spreading out the clear liquid that was already pooled
there. His fisted my hair in his hands and tried to pull my head to him.
"Ah, ah, ah." I gazed up at him and kissed the tip of his erection. "Patience is a virtue."
"That
it is," he groaned through his clenched teeth. I pumped my hand up and
down his cock several times, gripping the head and squeezing it gently
on each upstroke. He closed his eyes and pushed his hips towards me. I
reached up and ran my fingers down his chest before taking the tip of
his cock in my mouth.
"Oh God, Bella…" his words were lost when I
swirled my tongue around the tip slowly. I tightened my lips around him
and sucked gently, taking him into my mouth until I felt his soft skin
against the back of my throat. I massaged the underside of his cock with
my tongue before sucking upwards and letting the tip of his cock fall
out of my mouth with a "pop."
"You taste amazing, Edward." I
tipped my head sideways and ran my tongue over his balls, sucking one in
my mouth gently and massaging the other one with my palm. I continue
stroking him with my remaining hand, delighting in the way his breathing
hitched and the way he was mumbling nonsense under his breath. His
thighs shook ever so slightly and I saw his knees buckle slightly.
I
brought my mouth back to his cock, running my tongue from the tip down
to his balls, then sucking my lips to the underside of his shaft and
following my trail back to the tip. He groaned again and pulled my head
up so I was looking at him.
"I need to be inside you, Bella." He
gripped my elbows and pulled me up so I was standing in front of him. In
one fluid move, he spun us around and pushed me down onto the bed,
gripping my panties in his hands and pulling them off quickly. He pushed
my legs apart and kneeled on the bed between them, bringing his mouth
to my chest and taking my nipple in it. He sucked gently, running his
tongue around the sensitive flesh in tight circles, and pulled back and
blew on the sensitive flesh.
"Ahh." My hips arched off the bed
involuntarily and I felt his hardness against my thigh. He brought his
mouth to my mother nipple and began his slow assault, while two of his
fingers slid inside me and found my special spot.
"You're so wet
already, baby." He pulled his fingers out and coated his cock with my
juices. He lined himself up with my entrance and then entwined his
fingers with mine, holding our hands on the pillow on either side of my
head. "I love you, Bella." He slid into me and a cry fell from my lips.
"Oh
God." I dug my fingers into his back as he inched himself inside me. I
could feel myself stretching to accommodate his size, and when the head
of his cock pressed against my g-spot, I bit my lip to avoid screaming.
"You
feel so good, Bella. It's like we were made for each other." He pulled
back so he was almost all the way out and thrust forward with a bit more
force. I tilted my head back and moaned, giving him access to my neck.
He kissed my shoulder, and then planted his lips on my neck, sucking
just hard enough to leave a light bruise.
"Edward, so good … more,
please, I need more." I didn't know if I was forming coherent sentences
or not but I didn't care either. Edward lifted my leg so my calf rested
on his shoulder and turned to kiss my ankle. He thrust into me faster,
going deeper than before with the new angle.
"So tight, Bella. So
tight and so wet. And so deep…" His words trailed off as he increased
his pace.
Every thrust pushed me up on the bed, and before I knew it the
headboard was banging noisily against the wall.
"We don't want to
wake the neighbors, " I teased, pushing Edward up and straddling him. I
rode him hard and fast, crying out every time the head of his cock
passed over my sweet spot. I could feel my orgasm starting to build and I
knew it wouldn't be long before I came undone.
"Come for me
baby." Edward read my mind, pressing his thumb against my clit and
rubbing roughly. I cried out as waves of pleasure started to wash over
me. My muscles clenched down around him and he tipped his head back and
let out an animalistic growl.
"EDWARD, OH GOD!" I screamed. The
pleasure was too intense and in that moment I couldn't care less if the
whole hotel heard my cries. Edward pulled me to him, covering my mouth
with his and muffling my cries. I dug my fingers into his hair and
pushed my tongue into his mouth hungrily.
"I'm so close, Bella.
But I want to take you over the edge again." He lifted me off of him and
set a pillow on the bed. "Lay down on your stomach on this." I
positioned my abdomen on the pillow and propped myself up on my elbows.
Edward grabbed my hips and pushed into me.
"Uhhhhh…. Don't stop.
More." I pressed my face into the mattress and grabbed the comforter in
my fists. Edward held me against the bed and stared pumping into me with
fast, hard strokes. I could feel my stomach starting to clench and a
familiar tingling sensation started spreading throughout my abdomen.
"Oh
God, Bella. BELLA." Edward found his release, burying himself inside of
me. His orgasm triggered mine, and I cried out into the comforter as it
washed over me. Edward pulled himself out of me and flopped down on the
bed. I couldn't move, my limbs felt like jelly and my breath was coming
out in pants. Edward rolled over and pulled me close to him, draping
his arm over my waist.
"That was incredible," he whispered in my
ear. I nodded in response, too spent to respond. Edward sat up and
pulled me into his arms. "Come on, let's take a shower and get you into
bed."
I giggled against his chest. "I think you already got me into bed, Mr. Cullen." He groaned and kissed my shoulder.
"If my memory is correct, I got you into bed three weeks ago, Ms. Swan."
Edward stood up and reached his hand out to me. I smiled and let him
lead me to the bathroom. He turned the shower on and adjusted the
temperature, then took me in his arms gazed into my eyes.
"I love you."
"I love you."
Just like that, three small words made my world complete.
