A.N: This is another one of my stories. It's rated M for lots of lemony goodness later on. Anyway. I'm still writing My Falling Star, this is just a side-story.
To the story-mobile!
If I had all day, I could tell you all the things Bella does to me. Her innocence spits in my face just to test my patience. I would protect her from anything in the world except it's kind of hard to protect her from myself. Especially when she come right out and asks me to 'make love' with her.
If she really knew what I thought, she would run away screaming. Don't get me wrong… it's totally adorable how she can barely say the phrase let alone sex…. but, I'd rather she leave the whole thing alone until after our wedding. I don't have as much self-control, as she seems to think.
"Edward?" Alice popped her head out of her bedroom door only to find me slumped against the wall, talking to myself. "What in God's name are you doing?" she demanded, running up to me.
Trying to calm my breathing, I rubbed my eyes and stood up straight. "Nothing." I snapped trying to act composed. "Seriously Edward, I wasn't born yesterday. What's up?"
"It's nothing!" I bellowed before stalking off down the hall.
Alice's perspective.
"What in God's name are you doing?" I asked, truly concerned. He was sweating and paler than a vampire- no pun intended. He straightened up and glared at me. "Nothing," he barley whispered, voice raspy. "Seriously Edward, I wasn't born yesterday. What's up?" I tried to lighten the mood.
Obviously it didn't work very well. His eyes tightened before he screamed, "It's nothing!"
I watched him practically fly down the hall and into the bathroom. Letting out a frustrated breath, I started to walk back to my room until I heard faint crying from Edward's bedroom. Warily opening the door, I came upon a disturbing scene.
Bella was crouched over on the floor, desperately trying to clean something off the cold wood. I ran over to her and held her close to me, petting her hair. "Bella… what happened?" I took her face in my hands and tried to see what was in her tear-filled eyes. Immediately she stopped shaking and smiled warmly. "Nothing, silly Alice. I'm perfectly fine."
Edward's perspective.
"Get a hold of yourself, Cullen!" I spat at the image in the mirror. I was gripping the edge of the sink so hard, it left an indentation of my hand on the side. I could tell Alice had heard Bella crying. I knew Bella was explaining everything to her and I knew in about two seconds she would burst through this door and-
"Edward Cullen! You explain your sorry ass this instant!" she yelled, ripping the door open and letting it slam into the wall behind it.
