Silver Sky

Chapter 1 – Getting drenched cause of you.


I sat on the cold stone steps outside with my head in my hands, this was so unbelievably stupid, and yet it was so believably Alice. I hadn't seen them all, except for Alice and Jasper for 2 years, it was such a long time, and my heart was aching to see their smiling, familiar faces once again, If only I had the courage to go inside.

I cursed softly to the wind as it blew past, why was I always so shy? Still, after all this time experiencing life and becoming myself, these idiots could reduce me to a blushing tomato as easy as that.

Ok, deep breaths, stand up, turn around, face the white door, another deep breath. I paused for a second, looking at the solid wooden antique door, it was so beautiful, just like the rest of this place and I loved it so much, my second home no matter what. I took a step forward, my hand hovering over the door handle, I knew they were all inside, talking and laughing, waiting for me.

It was so anti-climatic really, they paused when the door inched open slowly, waiting for me to appear, lovely little Bella stumbling in. I decided to get it over with, pushing the door open with a swift whoosh, I looked up timidly, and when I saw them all, my anxiety left, my body felt lighter and my face broke into one heck of an infectious grin.

"No way, check the squirt out!" Emmett yelled, breaking the silence laughing.

Rose made a sort of squeaking sound as she ran towards me, I dropped my bags and laughed freely as she knocked my breath out and sent us tumbling into the wall. "Bella, Bella" I heard her mumble into my coat before she pulled back, beaming "I've missed you so much girly!"

"Missed you too, Rose" I said, breathless.

I didn't get a chance to take another as Emmett pushed her out of the way, giving me a well needed bear hug, 2 years of not having one of them sends a girl insane, He was just the same, If a little more muscular. "Your all grown up!" he exclaimed, "Not that you weren't before but ... Yeah" I knew what he meant, I had changed since going away to college, Taller, more womanly in all the right places, and Just before I'd come here, I'd had my hair cut to just below my shoulders, A few layers and slight, side swept bangs.

I Hugged Carlisle and Esme next, Alice and Edward's Parents, I always admired them for housing 6 Teenagers in the summer when I was younger and I still do. "It's good to have you back, dear" Esme murmured, then kissed my cheek. Carlisle gave me a strong hug, smiling brightly.

I skipped over Alice & Jasper, I lived with them, and we didn't need the "Hey's". I gulped and turned to face him, He had of course changed, as we all had, but He was always so perfect it didn't matter, Hair still messy and in his eyes, while those gorgeous green eyes were burning into me, scorching my soul, He was taller by a few inches and still a little scrawny.



Facing him made me nervous, we had so much past and it had just abruptly stopped when college began, breaking my heart in the process. He had been my best friend, my first Kiss, my first Boyfriend. I loved him with all my heart And I still do.

Tears formed in my eyes as I stared at him, I was faintly aware of the room and how silent it had become, but I could only look at him, His face was near expressionless, but his eyes told me everything I needed to know. "I've missed you, I'm glad you're here, I love you"

I let out a small sob and hurtled myself into his arms as fast as I could, And I soon as I touched him I felt whole. A piece of me had been missing for two years, and now it was back and I couldn't have been happier.

I buried my face into his neck and laughed, inhaling his intoxicating boyish smell as he wrapped his arms around me and choked a laugh.

"Ohmygod, I can't begin to describe how much I've missed you" he whispered to me after a few moments.

I smiled and pulled away slightly to look into his eyes "I bet I missed you more" I said deviously, He smiled crookedly and kissed my forehead before saying so lightly I almost missed it "Never".

"Right, so let's unpack and get away from these two please?" I heard jasper say, I sighed and pulled myself away from Edward slowly, even though I wanted to cling onto him forever. I grabbed two of my bags and headed to my room, planning to come back for the last in a few minutes, but I noticed Edward grabbing it and following me silently.

I took my time, walking slowly, mainly because of my bags but also because I wanted a chance to soak up everything, I had missed it so much it was untrue, Walking along the wide corridor past everyone's rooms brought back dozens of memories, younger versions of us running into each other's rooms, laughter and screams all melded into one.

My Small room was right at the back of the house, squashed between Edward's and the staircase up to the attic, which had been converted into three extra rooms for Jasper and Emmett and a bathroom. I had been offered the attic rooms to share with Rose by Esme at first, But I preferred this room because it was small and cosy, and of course conveniently next to Edwards.

When I finally got to my room I paused, looking on the door at all the little lines travelling up it, my height from age 6 until 2 years ago. Opening the door was like walking back in time, The midnight blue bedding, deep purple walls and silver ceiling were all exactly the same, my little wardrobe and bookcase, spray painted silver too one day in summer stood tall and surprisingly dust free. I dropped my bags on the floor and turned to see Edward place the other down too and close the door.

He closed the distance between us in 1 step and then the next thing I know I'm laying down on my bed and he's crushing himself too me and I'm kissing him like it's our first kiss and we were just so full of lust that I couldn't breathe, I couldn't think, I just wanted his lips on mine, because If they weren't then what was the point of anything?

I broke away to get the well needed air into my lungs while his lips travelled along my jaw line, it was almost as if he was tasting my skin with his open mouthed kisses, breathing in deeply as we went up to my ear lobe and sucked. This made me gasp loudly and partially gather my senses, the others were around, and we'd only been together five minutes, stop. Slow down. Wait.

I pushed him gently off of me and sat up slowly, "It's been two years Edward" I said calmly, I hope he knew what I was getting at.

"You found someone else?" he asked, looking already panic stricken and lost.

I mentally slapped myself and tried to explain what I meant "No, please, I didn't meant that at all, I love you Edward, It's just been an awfully long time and I want take it a little slower than you Jumping me after 5 minutes, okay?"

After I said that I instantly regretted it, who wouldn't want Edward jumping them? "Oh, okay, sure thing" He smiled and reached out for my hand, lacing our fingers together, It felt just like old times.

I jumped up suddenly, dragging him with me "Can I see your room, please? I love your room" He laughed and nodded, this time dragging me.

His room was almost exactly the same, A few new posters, different bedding, a New TV, but none of that mattered, it was his room, all about him, and the pictures on the walls were all about us. I sighed in contentment and went to sit on the squishy leather sofa, cracked with age and good use. He followed and we curled up together.

I smiled; I was so completely happy that nothing in this world could pop my happy bubble at this moment.

I heard talking and laughing downstairs. "We should go see the others; I didn't come all this way to not spend time with them"

"You mean, you didn't come all this way to see me?" He said, mocking hurt.

I laughed and slapped him lightly on the arm before leaning in to kiss him "of course I did" kiss "You" kiss "were" kiss "the ... main ... reason ... . 80 percent ... I'd say."

"Only 80?" He murmured, taking charge of kiss talking "I'm a ... little ... offended" His lips were wandering down my neck, his arms running wild up my side and arms. I took a sharp intake of breath as he sucked on my collar bone, forcing me to lean down on the sofa.

"Okay, Okay, 90 percent" My voice was losing volume, my breaths becoming heavier and faster. I felt him smile lightly against my skin then continue his assault.

This was definitely what I had missed most, there was no denying it, being this close to him was like being in heaven, but that was too nice to describe our actions sometimes, I'd have to say he was more like a drug, a dirty little addiction that I selfishly kept to myself.

As my hands found themselves running up his perfectly smooth back and tangling in his hair, the all too innocent voice of Alice floated upstairs.

"Bella, Edward! Are you done packing yet?"



He groaned and rolled off of me, forgetting this was a sofa and consequently rolling onto the floor with a surprisingly loud thud. His face was adorable, confused and stunned, I couldn't contain my giggles, I put a hand over my mouth to try and stop them but they kept on coming, I sat up and had to take big deep breaths as I laughed even harder.

He regained his composure and kneeled up on the floor. "You think that's funny, Isabella?"

I stopped laughing and nodded, smirking.

"Well, I think this is even funnier really" And before I knew what was happening, he had scooped me up and flung me over his shoulder.

I squealed like a little girl, kicking my legs but his grip was tighter that I thought it would be, I knew where he was heading and boy was he in trouble. "Please, oh my god, Edward please, don't do this to me, please!" I cried. He was heading for his bathroom, the door swung open and blue tiles replaced the cream carpet as I stared at his legs and the floor, all the while kicking and begging.

He was laughing at me as he placed me down in the shower, I tried to escape but His grip like it always had been was iron. He turned the shower on full blast ice cold; it was a super freaky power shower, with water coming from all angles, nowhere to go without getting drenched. He quickly exited and closed the door leaning on it for protection.

I screamed when the water hit me, it almost hurt it was so cold, I pushed against the door but the floor and glass was now wet and slippy. "Edward!! Help!" I screamed.

It was no use, So I turned and made the water warmer a little so I wouldn't freeze to death and continued yelling for help while he stood there laughing.

Pretty soon Alice and Emmett came to investigate. Alice swore and went to hit Edward but Emmett grabbed her just in time and Edward opened the door and shoved her in here with me. Don't think I didn't try to escape, but it's pretty hard when they're shoving a whole other person in here.

And of course, Alice screamed bloody murder; I winced as she shrieked about her clothes and her hair, which was pretty soon soaked. I could only hope with her yelling someone came.

They did of course, the whole family piled into Edwards bathroom to get a good look at a moody me and a hysterical Alice, both completely drenched, but at least the water wasn't cold anymore, just temperate, so no steam was caused and they didn't know.

Jasper looked a little worried at the sight of Alice almost in tears and tried to get her out without getting pushed in himself, it didn't work too well, he was about to be thrown in when Esme's voice rang out "Stop!"

We all became silent and I turned the shower off "As much fun as this seems, having two screaming girls in my house is not exactly a wonderful welcome home gift, Now then, why did you put Bella in the shower Edward, you're not 16 anymore"

Edward shrugged and looked at me, the glint in his eye made me panic a little. "She kicked me off the sofa" he said simply.

I stared at him completely shocked "But ... I didn't!"

Esme ignored me and said "Why didn't you turn the shower off Bella, you're supposed to be the intelligent one around here" She was smiling now, and I blushed bright red, I hadn't thought of that, I was overcome with shock.

"Now, Get out of that shower and you two get clean and dry, dinner will be ready soon, I want it to be normal and civilised, even if it's just for this once, you should all be able to act mature for an hour, right?"

Rose snorted and left the room with Emmett, Esme and Carlisle.

Alice was whimpering, so Jasper grabbed a towel and wrapped her up, then carried her bridal style from the room.

I was left, scowling, cold and dripping wet. Edward offered me a towel, I grabbed it and stalked past him in to his room, looking for revenge and making little puddles.

I looked at his large bed and not thinking, ran and dive-bombed onto it.

I heard him swear loudly as I rolled around giggling, trying to get as much as possible damp as quickly as I could, because he was over here within seconds, dragging me up and almost throwing me out of his room.

I turned and blew him a quick kiss before going to get changed and trying to unpack. Tonight would be eventful.
