Strangers Under The Mistletoe
Written For: Bnljwl
Disclaimer: I don't own anything having to do with Twilight, just this little story plot and a huge clump of mistletoe that Edward sent over. =) This story was written for the Twilight Fanfic Advocacy Secret Santa exchange. Will be expanding it after the first of the year.
"Dad, Hey,...no unfortunately all planes out of here have been grounded due to a freak blizzard going on. I know I'm stranded. All the roads are closed too. The rental companies refuse to rent anything because of the weather conditions. I'm having to stay here at the airport. Yes dad I have the pepper spray, I never leave home without it.. Give Sue and everyone my love. I'll see you as soon as I can. Love you dad."
I hung up the phone and searched for a comfortable spot near a power outlet so I could charge my phone. I found an outlet but there weren't any chairs close by so I just pulled off my coat and sat down on it. I plugged the phone up and started to play solitare on it. I think I played about ten games before I got bored and turned it off. I shut my eyes and leaned my head back against the wall. I was wishing I had brought my books with me.
"Excuse me Ma'am." I looked up and there staring at me was a pair of eyes so green they would put the purest emeralds to shame attached to face with a slightly scruffy beard with hair that was an odd rich color of copper. He looked as if he hadn't left the bed in days and only just got up. Lucky Bitch.
"Miss?" oh yeah he was talking to me.
"Yeah?" That sounded so stupid. I can't believe that's all I could come up with.
"If you want, I have wifi on my laptop and Netflix too. We can watch movies. Looks like we are going to be stuck here for a while might as well make it fun. There really isn't anyone else here. Rose said this crazy storm is sitting on top of us and shows no sign of moving anytime soon." I continued to stare at him. Is he for real? Is this god actually talking to me? "Oh, sorry. My name is Edward. What's yours?"
"Bella?" My voice cracked making it sound like I was asking a question.
"I seen you sitting here all alone and Its really not safe." he said.
"I have my pepper spray and pointy shoes on." I said holding up my foot with the death trap of heels on them. Whatever was I thinking when I decided to wear them to the airport? Oh, yeah, Jacob was picking me up when I got off the plane.
Edward laughed. "No offense but I don't think that would hold off anyone if they really wanted what you got." His laugh made me tingle in spots I haven't tingled in in a long time. "So, Internet, portable power, and movies?" he asked as he pointed to a chair across from where I was sitting.
Oh yeah, he asked me something. "Um...sure...why not?"
"Let's go hunt up some food if we can."
"Well if the roads are closed couldn't they stay open in here? I mean they can't get home either."
He laughed at me again, "Well I guess that's the airports call.."
We found a few snacks in a vending machine and a soda and coffee machine and raided both. We walked around and found a more comfortable spot and realized that there may have been a total of five people in there including us. We settled down and he opened his computer up and the background was of a small girl about ten years old with his eyes but with hair blacker than the darkest night. There was also a boy that was about the same age as she was. Both was smiling brightly.
"Your kids?" I asked.
He laughed again. What is it with this gu and laughing at me? "No, my sister and her soul mate. They were ten in this picture."
"How old is she now?"
His eyes flashed with sadness, "She died the day this was taken. It was about two years ago. She and Jasper, the little boy there, were riding their bikes down the road to his house they never made it. A drunk driver going over a hundred miles an hour hit them in broad daylight and never even stopped."
"Oh my God. I'm so sorry." I said as tears ran down my eyes. I wanted to hug him but instead I just rubbed his back.
"So, Bella,Where are you headed?" he changed the subject quickly.
"Home to Forks."
"Funny, me too. My parents moved there about six months ago."
"Awesome."
"Ok first movie is Elf." he said.
"Oh great. I love Will Ferrell." We watched and laughed until it was over. I don't care how many times I watch that movie it never gets old.
"Want to walk with me Bella? My butt is getting numb." Edward asked as he closed the laptop.
I laughed, :Sure, I could use a walk." I stood and stretched. As we walked he took my hand in his. It just felt normal.
"So Bella, Do you have a boyfriend back home?"
"No." I quickly lied. Why the hell did I do that for? Well Jacob isn't technically my boyfriend just a friend with benefits so I guess I didn't lie. He cocked his eyebrow at me then looked at my feet and back at the high heels in my hand.
"Then why the hell did you travel in heels?"
"I don't know." I fibbed again. I knew good and well I wanted Jacob to fuck me in the back seat of his car on the way home from the airport. I just didn't want to tell the guy standing next to me that.
"Whatever you say." He shrugged as he walked over to a window and watched the snow fall. The ground was alredy invisible under the snow that just started falling a couple hours ago. "Holy Hell, How convienient." He exclaimed.
"What?"
He pointed up and there on the window, someone had taped a clump of mistletoe. "Now I have to kiss you. Can;t break the rules."
"Um...Ok." I gulped suddenly nervous. I mean I was already holding his hand. Why not? He cradled my face in his hands and lowered his lips to mine and I swear I ssw stars. The kiss was so tender but filled with hunger at the same time. I could fell my panties starting to soak. The kiss soon turned Into a teeth clashing, lip biting and moaning event. Soon I had to pull back to catch my breath.I swear I came close to an orgasm. I opened myeyes and looked at him. His eyes were dark and hooded with desire. I glanced around and there was a bathroom just down the way from were we were standing. I grabbed his hand and pulled him down the hall only to stop half way. I dropped his hand and walked back to the window and pulled the mistletoe off of the window and walked back to him "What?" I said when I noticed him looking at me with his eyebrow hitched up again. He glanced down at the mistletoe in my hand in confusion.
"No point in leaving it. It might come in handy." I grabbed his hand again and oulled him into the bathroom and locked the door. I pulled him to me and kissed him again. HE quickly got the hint. His hand found the buttons on my jeans and before I could think they were around my ankles. I pulled loose from his lips and yanked my shirt over my head and started on his shirt as he undid his belt and dropped his jeans.I be damned he preferred going commando and was completely shaved down there. A loud moan escaped my lips as I stared at his massive cock. He pulled his shirt over his head and then made quick work of my bra and panties, before I could think I was up on the counter and he was sucking on my nipples alternating between the two.
"Fuck yeah, that feels incredible." I moaned.
"You haven't seen anything yet."He whispered in my ear as his finger slid between my slick folds. I hissed at the sensation and bucked my hips."Damn baby your wetter than a slip 'n slide in June." I barely had time to process that thought when he lined up his massive cock and slammed it inside of me. I cried out as he filled me like no other person ever had before.
"Holy Hell don't fucking stop." I had reached my first orgasm and was quickly approaching my second when he stood me up and turned me around.
"Bend over the counter." He whispered.
He entered me from behind, as he pumped in and out of me furiously he reached up and wrapped my hair around his hand and pulled my head back to watch us in the mirror. "Look in the mirror Bella, I want you to watch us cum together." I was so close to falling over the edge I reached down and started to rub my clit frantically. In no time I was falling apart, my legs were shaking and I was screaming out his name. He pumped in and out a couple more times harder and faster. Then my name left his lips ."Oh my God Bella, So fucking Good Fucking fuck."
My name sounded so good coming off his lips, I could listen to that shit all the time. We got our bearings back and cleaned up and got dressed. "Damn, the mistletoe got crushed."
"Bella, I'll buy you more. Hell I'll buy you a thousand if I get that performance everytime I kiss you under some." I blushed from my ears to my toes.
"That wasn't planned I promise."
"I know. But I did think you were hot sitting there on the floor with your fuck me heels on. Come on lets get back to our stuff."
We walked back to our things and talked some more until he got a text message.
"YES!" he yelled.
"What?" I asked.
"Come on let's get out of here."
"In case you haven't noticed we are kind of snowed in." I said.
He pulled me up from the chair and kissed me thouroughly. "Trust me ok."
"Um ok." We gathered our things and walked outside. There was a huge hummer parked outside with a snow plow parked in front of it. They were both fitted with snow tires.
"What's this?" I asked.
"Our way home." He replied.
"You have your own snow plow?"
"It helps to know people." He shrugged off.
He loaded our things in the back and plugged our phones into the universal chargers. "Are you ready to make it home before Christmas?" He asked.
"How?"
"We follow the snowplow until we get to an open airport then we fly home or we just drive straight through."
"Let's drive. It gives us time to get to know each other."
"Driving it is then."
After what seemed like forever we arrived in Forks. Edward pulled into dad's driveway.
"Thanks for the ride. Please come in. I'm sure that dad would like to thank the man that got his little girl home safe and sound for Christmas."
"I don't want to intrude. And I did it all for selfish reasons. I must confess."
"Really and those were?"
"I wanted to keep you to myself for a while longer. And the road head was heaven."
"Hahaha funny. Come on inside. We won't tell dad about that ok." I laughed.
He got out and came around and opened my door. He took my hand and helped me down but didn't let go of my hand. Before I could knock on the door it opened and out came Leah, my half- sister and Seth, my step brother. Leah's mouth hit the ground.
"Um, Leah, close your mouth girl." I said pushing her inside the house. "Dad, Sue!" I yelled. "I'm here."
"oh, Sweetheart we are so glad you made it. Who is this?" Sue gushed.
"Sue, Dad this is Edward. Edward this is Sue and My dad Charlie."
"Nice to meet you all." Edward said as he shook dad's hand and kissed Sue's.
"come have a beer with me son." Dad said as he ushered Edward into the kitchen.
Leah pulled me into the other room. "Do you know who that is?" She asked.
"Um yeah, a really nice guy that I really like." I replied.
"No dipshit. That is Edward Cullen. He singled handedly made the piano sexy. He can make a girl cum with just his guitar and piano playing. How in the world did you meet him?"
"Gee Leah, way to make a girl feel beautiful. We were stranded at the airport together."
"Lucky you. He is the most eligible bachelor in the world." She sighed.
"Leah, Hush." I said as I walked out of the room and into the kitchen to rescue Edward. "Edward we need to get my things out of the truck." He helped me carry everything up to my room and I walked him back to his truck after he said his goodbyes. "Thank you for everything. Will I see you again?" I asked him hopefully.
"Yes, I hope so. Do you live in Chicago?"
"Yeah, sort of."
"Sort of?"
"Yeah, I'm in between jobs right now and all my things are in storage at a friends house."
"Excellent. Go on vacation with me." He whispered as he pulled me to him. He tucked a stray hair behind my ear and kissed me softly. "Please? And the grown man gave me the puppy dog eyes.
"Ok." I was a sucker for those green puppy dog eyes but I wouldn't tell him that. "Where would we go?"
"Everywhere and anywhere." he said as he pulled a small box out of his pocket. It was wrapped with red and green paper and had a huge piece of mistletoe taped to the top.
"What is this?"
"A present, DUH."
"But..."
"Just open it."
Inside was a beautiful Emerald pendant on a silver chain with atching earrings. On the back of the pendant was the engraving "It was Love at First Sight. Edward." Yes it was that big. "When did you get this?" I asked.
"When you were sleeping on one of our stops." he answered as he helped me put the necklace on.
"I can't take this Edward."
"Yes you can. Good night Bella, I'll see you soon. I put my number in your phone and I have yours as well. When you are ready we will hit the road on an adventure. Oh and your family is invited to dinner tomorrow night at our house."
"Goodnight Edward. Merry Christmas. I'll see you tomorrow." I kissed him good night and went inside.
I woke up feeling good for a change until I heard my name being called from the bottom of the stairs.
"BELLA BELLA BELLA! GET YOUR SKINNY ASS DOWN HERE OR I'M COMING UP TO GET YOU!"
Shit, It was Jacob. I had forgotten all about him. I jumped up and pulled on my sweats and a hoodie.
"Morning Jake." I mumbled not even able to look at him. He pulled me to him in a massive bear hug.
"Wow, Bells, you look great. You have this glow about you."
"Thanks Jake." I mumbled again.
"You coming to the rez with me and the guys today?" He asked.
"Sorry, no, Jake. I'm not. We were invited to the Cullen's for dinner tonight."
"Cullens?"
"Yeah Bella is dating their son Edward." Leah blurted.
"WHAT? What about us?" He asked.
I couldn't help noticing the hurt in his eyes. I also noticed how young he actually was. I realized I should have never messed around with him or his emotions like this in the first place.
"You mean your dumping me, Bella?"
"Jake, we were never an item." I sighed.
"So, you used me for a quick fuck then huh?"
"No...I...uh...fuck Jake its not like that. I'm sorry. I never meant to hurt you. I just think you seen this as something more than I did. Forgive me? I know there's got to be a sweet young thing here in town you like right?" I said hoping to change the subject fast. I noticed how his eyes flew to Leah when I said sweet young thing.
"Well, Yeah ,but I don't want to lose you."
"You'll never lose me Jake, I'll always be your friend. Just without the benefits from here on out." I said as I hugged him.
"Hey, Jake lets go play basketball." Leah interrupted.
Jake promised to have her back in time for dinner with the Cullens. I helped Sue fix her famous cranberry sauce and stuffing. By the time we were done it was time to get ready to go. I showered and dressed in black skinny jeans, knee high boots and a dark blue cashmere sweater that brought out my eyes. I pulled my hair back in a sleek ponytail and kept my makeup light. Everyone was waiting downstairs for me to leave when the door bell rang. Dad answered looking confused. It was Edward.
"Hello . I'm here to escort Bella ot dinner." He said when dad opened the door.
"We were on our way son. Were you that impatient?"
"I know sir. I just wanted some time alone with her before mom gets ahold of her."
"Ahold of me?" I gulped.
"Yeah, she is a little curious about the girl that stole my heart."
"Oh." Smooth Swan. I need to improve my vocabulary around this one.
When we arrived I was amazed. The house was a huge victorian style home with lots of modern touches to the outside. I couldn't wait to see the inside. Suddenly Edward was whispering in my ear.
"Bella, Can I kiss you?" I just nodded my head. He kissed me with so much passion and desire I felt I would combust on the spot."You look gorgeous. The blue really brings out your eyes and those boots, well, lets just say I want to do naughty things to you in just those boots."
"You like these old things? How about I wear them with this short skirt I got hiding in the back of my closet?" I teased him.
We finally got out as my dad pulled in the drive behind us. Edward opened my door for me and we all went inside where we were met by who I assume were Edward's parents.
"Bella, this is my mom Esme, and my dad Carlisle. Mom, dad this is Bella Swan and her Dad Charlie Swan his wife Sue Clearwater Swan and her sister Leah and brother Seth. That big oaf over by the fireplace is my brother Emmett and his wife Rosalie."
"Nice to meet you all. We brought Sue's famous Cranberry sauce and stuffing, where should we put it?"
Dinner was comfortable and unrushed. Myfamily left around ten pm and Edward asked me to stay, promising my dad he would have me home before morning. What was I a teenager? We planned out our trip and talked and learned more about each other.. We were laying bundled up together on the back deck watching it snow when Edward started to nibble on my ear. "Your parents are right inside." I whispered.
"So, They won't bother me. I'm not sixteen anymore." he chuckled
'Your family is awesome. It was sweet how they set a place for Alice even though she's not around anymore."
"We have done it every year since. Your family is pretty awesome too. Bella, I have to tell you something. Listen to me and don't interrupt me til I'm done ok?"
I nodded "Ok." I was suddenly confused and on edge.
"Before I met you, something was missing in my life. I performed and slept that was basically my life. I was looking for that happily ever after, my princess but never found her. Then I seen you in the airport and it was like a switch was thrown. I swear my sister wsa sitting there telling me 'She's the one' I tried to fight it. I really did. But on the drive home, you just ….I don't know...worked your way into my heart and I realized you were it for me, you were my everything. There would never be anyone els. I've never needed anyone before like I need you. I've never went out of my way to spend time with someone before. I know its been only a week but I have fallen in love with you."
His speech brought tears to my eyes. I straddled his lap and pulled his lips to mine and kissed him pouring out everything I couldn't say out loud into that kiss. He reached up and wiped the tears away," I can't wait for our road trip." He whispered.
"Me either."
" I can't wait to explore new places and try new things with you." he whispered
"There's no one else I would want to experience it with Edward."
"I better get you home before your dad shoots me." he joked
"He likes you I promise." I said as he stood and let me slide down his body and feeling what I did to him.
He held my hand the entire trip and stopped just before he got to my drive way to kiss me again. He killed the lights and sat there for a few minutes.
"Who is that on your porch? Is that your dad?"
"OH MY GOD! No thats Leah and Jake." They were making out on the porch steps. If Edward hadn't killed the lights when he stopped they would have seen us. "Lets just stop here for now and give them a few more minutes then we will break it up."
"Gives me more time to kiss you more thoroughly." He whispered and before I knew it His hands were pulling my ponytail free and he was nibbling on my ear down to my jaw and finally on to my lips.
"Edward,...We have to stop."
"Why?" He groaned.
"Because I want to fuck you right here, right now but aI don't want to give my family a heart attack."
"True." He grumbled.
"But I can give you a hand job." I dead panned.
He stared at me for a minute before busting out laughing "Not a good idea. If you started that I would just have to bury myself inside of you."
"Um...UH...Let's break them up now." He turned on the car lights and pulled up the drive chuckling the whole way.
"You two are busted." I said as I got out of the car. "Why didn't you two tell me?"
"I didn't want you to get mad sis." Leah stuttered."We have been seeing each other for the last couple months."
I eyeballed Jake for the show he put on this morning. "Cool just don't let dad see you two doing that out here. Jake Don't fuck my sister unless you love her."
"This is different than us Bella. I rally like her."
"Good now go home. Charlie will have the gun out here soon. Bye Edward I love you. Merry Christmas and good night." I said as I kissed him again.
"Goodnight my love. Can't wait til New Years."
When I went to bed that night I couldn't believe how lucky I was. I couldn't wait to see what this adventure held for Edward and I. I just knew that this would just be the first of many for us.
