The Ice Lolly
I own nothing... nada... just the idea which came from on conversation on Twitter with Jo and Kayce
Chapter One
I was sitting in my room trying for the life of me to concentrate on my math homework, I hate math especially when Edward was not here to help me, ah Edward, I sighed, Oh great now I'd done it, I threw my pen down onto the book that was taunting me with it's blank pages. Now I would never get it done.
I rose from my chair raising my arms above my head to stretch out my frustration, as I started to relax my eyes fell on the picture beside my bed, a smile formed on my face as I remembered the day that Alice took it.
It was a few months ago, Emmett had heard that there was big carnival near Seattle and really wanted the family to go, Alice had said that the weather would be perfect for them on the weekend of the 18th and 19th and that she had seen the whole family there including me, I remembered Rosalie mumbling something and Edward growling at her before she stormed off, I told them that I didn't think that Charlie would let me go but after Alice and Esme talked to him he was almost pushing me out of the door smiling and telling me to have a great time. I never knew until that moment just how much power a female Cullen could have.
I chuckled at the memory as I went to lay on my bed grasping the picture as I went, I ran my finger down the image of Edward's face and found myself drifting into sleep where the memory turned into my dream.
We arrived at the hotel at just after midday, the clouds where dark but the rain was holding off, we all paired off to go to our rooms, Emmett was with Rosalie, Alice with Jasper, Carlisle with Esme and I was with Edward. We agreed to meet in the lobby at 6pm, Emmett wasn't happy with waiting but Carlisle gave him a stern look and told him to start acting his age, as Emmett was about to make a comment back Rosalie swiftly hit him around the back of his head and dragged him towards their room.
Once in our room Edward pulled me close and kissed me slowly ushering me back towards the bed, it didn't take us long to get there but as soon as we did he sat down on the bed pulling me so I could straddle his legs, out lips never breaking contact. We were getting very heated and soon enough as usual he was pulling back from me.
"I'm sorry" I growled with pent up frustration.
"No I'm sorry love, I shouldn't let it get that far" Edward whispered while stroking my hair from my face. I looked him in the eye and could see the pain, guilt, conflict and love pooling in his amber orbs.
"Why can't we just try?" I quietly asked "I don't care if the others have to stand there watching, ready to step in at this point, I just want you so bad, in every way, I need you" I cupped his face into my hand and gentle stroked my thumb over his lips. He shuddered and took a heavy sigh gently putting his hands on my hips and lifting me to sit next to him. He ran his hand through his bronze hair before he spoke.
"Trust me Bella, I want you to, so much," He turned to look at me, lifting his hand to hold my face forming a connection with our eyes that I would have been unable to break even if I had wanted to.
"I want nothing more than to be able to satisfy you physically, but I love you too damn much to risk you in that way. If I were to hurt you I wouldn't be able to live with myself, I have worked too hard to keep the monster at bay to let him win now." Edward leant forward a gently kissed my lips.
"But you agreed to try" I wined sounding like a child. His head fell forward and he chuckled.
"Yes, yes I did" He raised his head back up to meet mine, "And it won't be long, just a few more weeks and you will be mine forever." He smiled his crooked smile that I loved so much, I wanted to push but I knew that it would make him angry and I didn't want that so instead I settled on smiling back but before I could I let out a rather large and noisy yawn.
"Tired huh? You need a nap before the excitement begins." He chuckled, he released my face and carefully lifted me up into his arms before manoeuvring us fully onto the bed, he laid me down and moved himself next to me so I could snuggle into him. He started to hum my lullaby while stroking my hair, I felt myself drifting to sleep as I hear him mutter something about it being too close and that he nearly gave in. At this I fell asleep with a smile on my lips.
I awoke a couple of hours later to angry hushed whispers.
"No Alice, let her sleep."
"But Edward its 5 and she needs to get ready" I heard the pixie argue.
"No Alice" was his stern reply.
"Edward, I am telling you that she has to get ready, stop acting like I'm trying to steal your toy!" Great now Alice was getting angry.
"Alice, you can't just barge in here and dictate to everyone!" Ooh now Edward was getting really mad, I had to stop this.
"I'm awake so stop bickering" I said groggily. "Alice please I love you but can you please just give me five minutes" I pleaded with her as I sat up rubbing my eyes. She looked at me sternly before suddenly smiling.
"Ok Bella, you have five minutes and then I'll be back, so be ready" with that she jumped off the bed and danced to the door, she turned around to face us once again.
"FIVE minutes" she held up her left hand indicating the minutes by wiggling her fingers and with that she turned around and left, shutting the door behind her.
I stood up leaned over to give Edward a kiss and then walked into the bathroom.
2 hours later
We had been at the carnival for about an hour although at one point I really didn't think that we would ever get here, Alice had gone into terminator mode while complaining that fifty five minutes was not enough time and that those five extra minutes were crucial, but after a lot of what can only be described as torture she was finally finished and we were allowed to leave.
It had been an amazing sight to see Emmett bounce up and down like Alice when we walked through the entrance; it even made Rosalie smile lovingly at him, Carlisle just smiled and shook his head. We had all been on a couple of rides and Edward had even won me an extremely large stuffed penguin from one of those coconut stalls. I think he used his vampire strength to do it though as the carnie running it gave him a very confused but angry look when he demolished the stack, I think it might have been rigged. We were standing around voting on what to do next when my stomach grumbled at the lack of food.
"Oh Bella, I'm so sorry we forgot dinner" Esme said looking extremely upset.
"Esme please don't, I forgot too, until my stomach let me know" I laughed which seemed to settle her.
"Come on love, lets get you something for now and then we can get something more back at the hotel, what do you want?" Edward pulled me a little closer, I looked up at him and smirked, he knew what I wanted and it wasn't food. He raised an eyebrow at me knowing for once exactly what I was thinking.
"Food Bella" he chuckled, I sighed and smiled back at him, although I could see Emmett trying to hold in laughter as Rosalie, Alice and Esme all smacked the back of his head. I laughed at his shocked expression and turned my focus back onto my waiting Edward.
"Hmmmm I would like…. Some…. Ice Cream" I nodded my head and my smile grew, well if I couldn't have Edward I wanted something cold I mentally laughed to myself.
"Ok then come on" he smiled while steering me towards the vendor.
I got my ice cream and I took a nice big lick, moaning as the flavour hit my throat, I looked over at Edward to see him taking a big gulp as he watched my actions intently. I smiled and locked my eyes to his as I took another long drawn out lick of my cone, I heard him growl and then I heard a tinkle of pixie laughter. I looked over to Alice and winked; she smiled in approval and gave me a thumbs up. Edward walked over to me and moved his mouth over my ear.
"You will be the death of me" he moaned "what are you doing to that poor ice cream? It doesn't deserve the delicious torture your mouth is giving it." I smiled evilly as I had a sudden inspiration.
"Well, then you better have it." I rushed out as I pushed the ice cream into the side of Edwards face, he was stunned into shock for a second before a smile started to break over his face and we both broke out into fits of hysterics, Edward pulled me into a hug.
"Smile" The pixie called, we both turned to her still laughing.
