I held the lighter in my hand steady as the couch began to burn. My name is Isabella Swan, Everyone calls me Bella, and im a about the colors in the flame excite me and the way its indestructible amazes me to no extent. Being a klutz i envy fire, the way the flame gracefully dances as it reaches its peak. How nothing but water can get in its way. Its deadly and dangerous to all, however i am not. Fire is romantic but can turn scary in the snap of a finger. It catches everyones eye, think about it. Have you ever been walking and saw a fire and just stopped to look at the beauty? Me? Im the polar opposite. I trip over everything, thin air my own feet, my shoes, you name it. Im very plain. plain brown frizzy hair, plain brown eyes, 5'4 and not getting any taller, and a book nerd. The biggest. Funny huh? How a pyro is also a book nerd...kind of ironic in some way.
Anyways, i had just gotten in a fight with Renee, mom, about getting in a fight with Charlie, Dad. she knew she wasnt getting anywhere with me and stalked off muttering something about adoption papers. And so here i sit, lighting the couch aflame. Trying to burn down this stupid Arizona town house. Once it was set, i grabbed my prepacked bags and left. With $250 in my pocket. Saving my money for an emergency seemed like a good idea, but really i was just trying to cover the fact that i was saving it for an occasion much like this one. Minus the burning couch.
i had to walk every where because my trusty truck, which i had gotten on my 17 birthday exactly this year, Had finally given out. My shoes on, i walked out of the house not knowing where i was going not caring. Everything i did revolved around fire. When i was 6 i lit my first match. 10 i set fire to my first piece of furniture, my old crib sitting in the front yard. 11 i got and kept my first lighter. 13 first time i attempted to set fire to my bed. and 15 i threatend to burn down the house while my parents were inside sending them to the exact same fiery hell. Nothing my parents ever did helped. they tried to stop me, tried to make me get rid of my obsession. Never worked. I have many pot smoking friends so while i got high i stole lighters and beer and such from convience stores all around the town. sometimes we left town. We have a strict 'only hit that store once' rule. we never go back to that store. Ever. weve been all over Arizona hitting convience stores getting high behind the high schools of various towns, every now and then someone would bring something heavy. Like whiskey and enough pot to last 5 days. 6 of us drank an entire gallon of whiskey and set fire to numerous houses all the while having a doobie hanging from each our mouths. Never once have i ever gone more than a few days without weed or a lighter. A few being 2 or 3. Yeah, im fucked up. So what? We all have our own problems. Mine just happen to be lighters, weed, and alcohol. Some of my friends are worse. they show up to school high and drunk and have an O in a baggie in their back pocket. Not my smartest friends. But some of the best. Just yesterday me and my friend Colby ditched 4th hour and spent it in the back lot smoking weed and kissing and shit. It was fun. And Colby knows where I draw the line. Kissing, okay, touching, sure, but after that its over. Never gone further than second base. Home runs are not what i do. Nope nope nope. And hands in pants are a no no to. Though a few friends i gave a favor to and didnt do it again.
And my parents have been talking about putting me up for adoption for a few years now. since i turned 13 ive been "A burden" to put in their way. For me i was purposely being a pain in the ass. I was barely passing my classes but i was passing and ive tried running away since i was 14. My friends always came to get me before i could. And then i would go out with them, do the usual and come home to tired to attempt it. But now. Now was the time. It was like 10 and my friends were on their way, if they time it right ill be gone and they can see my handiwork before the night was over. I would be outta here in time. I hope. I walked down the street, to the diner my dad always went to, never went with him just knew he went. Every sunday. The hostess greeted me and led me to a table. Fancy for a run down diner in the middle of nowhere. I sat and hid behind the menu. Got up at 10:30 and walked back home. Friends were there, House was about as burnt as possible and i could hear my friends.
"she always talked about doing it, never thought she really would."
"Dude, do you think shes still in side?"
"Shut up Lannie. shes not inside. She left. didnt run away. no. She doesnt have anything to run away from. Just left, probably her fucking cunt mothers fault."
"Couldve been her prick ass father."
"Could have been the lot. We wont know. not anymore."
I thought back to the good old times. When we could smoke pot back at my house, before my mom found me sucking face with Jared on the kitchen counter. Haha, that was funny. Shouldve seen her face. Looked like someone told her that her daughter was the devil. Hilarious. Kicked Jared, Colby, Lannie, Sunie, and Kilo out. All of those are code names by the way. We call Jared Jared cause we got high one night and we were fighting over how to spell jarred. And Jared stepped up and spelt it "Jared" and thats how he got his name. we pronounce it Jayr-id though. Colby came from the cheese. We were talking about our weirdest cravings when we were high, i said Fish sticks and Colby said "Colby cheese sticks." we cracked up. Lannie from...im not sure, he just said that his name was officially Lannie, from now on...weird. Sunie because we were smoking weed during the day and he said "Damn its really funny how its so sunny" and we laughed because he sounded so stupid. And then theres Kilo. Well Kilo...Said in a school poll that his life dream was to bathe in a Kilo of home grown. Thankfully it was anonymous and on the computer. They call me Sparks. Mostly because of my fire obsession but also because once we were all drunk and i said "Hey Jared where do your spark plugs go?" It was funny because Kilo was fixing his car and i pulled off the spark plugs. He yelled at me and everyone started laughing.
Ah, the old times. But on i went, through the woods next to my house straight into town. I also had found adoption papers in my moms drawers. i planned on going to the bar finding my parents and having them sign them dropping them off where ever they go and getting adopted ASAP. And i did. I got them signed dropped them off and they led me into somewhere and told me that i might have to stay here until they found the right people. What they meant to say was, here youre going to stay in this monkey cage and wait until somebody comes to pick you up. Whatever. As long as they have food and a bed im happy. i had a few good baggies stashed in my bag that they hadnt found. i could smoke that before someone stops by....
Day 45
45 days in this place. Jesus. At 12 midnight itll be 46. Shit. its 7 now. Well might as well go to sleep...
I awoke to a lady shaking me.
"Isabella! Isabella get up we found some one!"
"My name is Bella" I growled through clenched teeth.
"And get off of me!" I jumped up semi-pushed her out the door and started to change into my usual jeans & T-shirt. I attempted to do something with my hair. But to no avail i gave up. i threw on my Battered and beat Etnies and walked out.
"Mrs. J you said you found someone?'
"YES! Bella. Yes yes yes yes! Finally. After a month. They just need to meet you."
i shrugged my shoulders "Yeah, sure, whatever."
She led me into a quite spacious room. I planned on never speaking. I just dont want to. they can like me or not. My opinion doesnt change. I just want outta here. not like my voice is going to make up their minds. I planned on bringing my lighter. just in case they asked about my interests. I sat down in this chair across from two more between a long metal table. They walked in and i sat rigid. my jaw snapped and screwed shut, i didnt plan on talking. And i probably wont.
The couple sat down in front of me and i finally got a good look at them. the man Had light light blonde hair and a genuine smile on his face accompinied by ice blue eyes. The woman had Beautiful Caramel colored hair and Light brown eyes. the smile on her face was as clear as the bright yellow sun.
"Hello im Carlisle. And this is my wife, Esme."
He stuck his hand out in greeting. I took it and meekly shook it.
"You must be Isabella. I heard, though, that you prefer Bella?"
I nodded my head at the woman.
"Well Bella we already know that youre coming home with us. But just so we know...What do you like to do?"
Ah, the million-dollar question. Perfect. I dug into my pocket and pulled out my Zippo. It was black with a skull and cross bones on one side on the other there was an inscription.
"To Bella May this lighter help you see in darkness,
Your friends"
I put it on the table an flicked it towards them.
"You like to smoke?" The woman turned a concerned head towards me. I shook my head no. i mean yes i smoke but mostly because it helps my concentration.
"You like fire?" Guessed the man. I nodded my head.
"Thought so. Well, we live in the woods, you can always burn something in there. Just as long as its not in The house. We'll have Emmett make you a firepit of sorts. You'll see. Itll be great."
I gave them a small smile and nodded my head. As long as i could burn something ill be happy. They really were nice people, but i just dont want to talk.
"Bella could you please talk to us?" The woman sounded so desperate.
I shook my head because honestly i didnt want to. Talking got me here in the first place.
"Okay, well, we hope that someday you will. For now why dont we tell you about our family?" I nodded and listened intently. Though i may not talk to them, i would like to go live with them.
"We have 3 children that are actually related to us. Emmett, the oldest, is really a big scary kinda guy. But on the inside hes as soft and cuddly as a teddy bear. He can be a little rough though, and his jokes are very very..interesting. Edward, the middle, Is very reserved but extremely protective. Hes really nice though. A very good smart sweet boy. And Alice, the youngest. Dear dear Alice. Shes very energetic, very passionate. especially about shopping. Shes like a pixie and her brothers are wrapped around her fingers. And the other two that we have, are adopted just like you. Jasper, and Rosalie. Brother and sister. Jasper is like Edward reserved but sweet. and he has a very strong southern accent. I dont know why, his sister doesnt. Anyways, He met Alice the day that he met us. The boy was tripping over his feet. He fell for Alice the moment he saw her. And theyve been dating ever since. Now Rosalie, Shes very....different. Edgy, almost. Around us shes very ungaurded but when we first met her she was looking us down, like we were going to corrupt them, much the way a father would look at his daughters boyfriend. But she warmed up to us in a couple of hours and we took them home. Rosalie didnt fall in love with Emmett immediately but eventually she did. Emmett is a different story. He was just like Jasper, tripping over himself. Rosalie is extremely pretty. But a little vain about it. She likes to flaunt her beauty, all the time. But like Alice she is extremely passionate about shopping. they are frequent with their trips. I just hope that like Rose youll warm up to us."
I nodded my head assuring them that i would when i felt it was right. Mrs. J came and told them to sign the papers if they wanted me, and that they could take me home today.
"Bella, you might want to go start packing your bags. Youre coming home with us." Esme gave me a warm smile. I nodded and walked back to my room. Packing was easy. I had one big bag and a duffle. Not much. but the duffle was mostly filled with random things i wanted to keep out of my room. And my weed.
Mrs. J directed me and i walked out to see them. Esme wrapped her arm around my shoulders and gave me a hug and continued walking me down the steps. Down to a nice expensive black mercedes. Carlisle opened the back door for me and stepped back to open Esme's. He jogged around the front got into his seat and started the car. All i could see were blurring buildings, and then i saw the "You are now leaving pheonix" sign. I tapped Esme's shoulder and pointed. she told me that they live in Seattle Washington. they had heard from a friend that works here in the home where i had been that i was there and was very sweet, but troubled. Carlisle interjected, saying that Esme loves a troubled challenge. I laughed and Esme blushed. Carlisle said it would be best if i took a nap before i got to their home. Well home in general. I agreed and soon after fell asleep.
My dreams were pleasant. It was me Lannie, Sunie, Colby, Kilo, and Jared sitting around a fire. Laughing and passing a bottle around. we were laughing and smiling and talking of memories past. and Jared reminding me their numbers and to call them as soon as i got home.
And then it turned, i was in a dark alley way, where James had managed to find me. James was my ex, and he always got pissed that i didnt have sex with him. I just was never ready. I didnt love James so it didnt matter. But he had me in a dark alley way, his head down, like he was a lion stalking his prey.
"Bella bella bella. Youve been very very naughty. i think someone needs a spanking."
"No james. Stay away! Get away! JARED!!" I screamed for him. Jared was the protecter. He was the big one, the nice one. He was just the best. He always saved me in the nick of time. From everything. If we hadnt been friends i wouldve fallen in love with him.
"Hes not here bella. Its just you and me. Are you ready? Because i dont want you fighting me"
"James, stay away from me. Just stay away."
"Why? Is sweet Bella gonna hurt me?" He got closer and i raised my hand like i was going to punch him. He grabbed my fist an my other hand and wrapped them around my back.
"HELPP!!!!" I screamed and screamed to no avail.
"Bella, wake up." That was NOT James. Nor Jared. But it was comforting and sweet.
"Bella dear, wake up. Honey were home. wake up."
I jerked my head upwards and found myself wrapped in Esme's warm embrace. She was next to me. Holding me and comforting me. Not like my mother would've.
"Oh Bella, those dreams must've been horrible for you to yell like that."
i began to cry, remembering those dreams. James hunting me, grabbing my fists. I began to sob uncontrollaby into her shoulder.
"Oh poor baby. Edward, come carry Bella into her room please."
And then i saw him. Edward. Such an old fashioned name, but it fit so perfectly.i couldnt make out any details due to the tears in my eyes. I tried to get up but my knees went weak and buckled underneath me. I landed on the ground with a thud, still sobbing. Edward grabbed my hand and stood me up. He then proceeded to sweep me into his arms and carried me into the house. I clung to his neck like a child to her teddy bear. I began crying into his shoulder and he rubbed his hands up and down my back, soothing me. Next i knew i was being laid down in a bed, i didnt know where. Edward began to remove his arms from around me. I clung to his neck with even more strength.
"Please dont leave me. Please?" Something about him made me feel safe. I couldnt let him go. He was the first one i voluntarily talked to in the house.
"Only until you fall back asleep."
"How do you know i will?" I choked out through my tears.
"Intuition. Instict. Whatever you want to call it. Here how about i stay until you stop crying?"
I nodded my head. and buried my head back into his neck effectively clouding myself in his scent.
Sometime afterwards i fell back asleep.
No dreams, just blackness. at least thats what i remember.
I awoke to the smell of coffee. I jumped upright in bed and looked around. I didnt remember where i as until i saw my suitcase next to the door. And i smiled. A genuine smile. A happy smile. I walked down stairs to see my new family.
"BELLA!" A little flurry of pink screamed towards me. I was wrapped in the embrace of a small girl.
"My name is Mary Alice Cullen. But please call me Alice. I hate it when people call me Mary." She pouted. and i couldnt help but to chuckle at this little creature called Alice. Man, i needed to smoke one...
Then came the big one. Sitting there laughing was a body builder. If i thought Jared was big then i was nuts. He stuck out his hand
"Hi, im Emmett. Or Emmie as Alice calls me. If you need an ass kicked im the man to come to." Just then a gorgeous blonde woman slapped Emmett on the arm.
"Em, dont scare the poor girl." She held both of her arms outwards towards me and gave me a hug. "Im Rosalie. Emmetts Darling girlfriend, so dont get any ideas..." She gave me the nastiest glare ill ever have to endure, and a voice spoke with a thick southern accent.
"Talk about scaring the girl Rose." he chuckled. "Hi there. Im Jasper. Rosalie's nicer sibling. Also the love-stricken boyfriend of Alice." Alice looked at him with pure adoration.
And then i heard a melodious chuckle behind me. It was like rough velvet. Perfection in every way. It sent shivers down my spine.
"Dont you guys think youre bombarding her just a little bit? She hasnt even had her coffee yet!" Finally! Someone who understands! I need my caffine before im even able to process anything.
"This way." He cocked his head an lead me towards the kitchen. Grabbing me a coffee cup he poured it, asked if i took cream in it. I shook my head no and made a face of obvious distaste.
"Girl takes it black with sugar... Most unlike the women of this household who take it with milk or cream or something." He gave me a smile that made my insides melt. thats when i saw them. The most beautiful green ive ever seen in my life. And the way his forhead crinkled when he laughed, i thought i was in heaven. His teeth were straight and perfectly white,his skin pale but not an unhealty pale. Like marble. And he was nicely built, not Emmett or Jared built but not tall and lanky like Colby. He was built perfectly for his size. And damn, he looked good. the hair he had on his head was, and i swear to you, made by the angels in heaven. It was caramel colored like Esme's hair but more...copper-y? Yeah. it had more copper in it than anyones...It was perfectly meshed up and I wanted to run my hands through it again and again.
"Do you talk at all Bella? I mean seriously youve said like 5 words the entire time youve been here. Most peculiar..." He trailed off thoughtfully. i searched through my pockets and couldnt find my lighter.
"Oh no." the words came out before i could stop them.
"Okay seven. Whats up?"
"My lighter, My baby. Its gone."
"OH! the black one with an engravement and skull and cross bones?"
I nodded in confusion.
"Esme has it. Here take your coffee and just...wait in the living room. Over there. Ill be back with it."
He pointed to a room over his shoulder and i walked though an arch into a room that was the size of my house. Jasper, Emmett, Alice, and Rosalie were already in there. Jasper and Emmett playing Halo, Alice and Rosalie sitting at a computer working on something intently, so i just sat on the couch and watched Emmett and Jasper. About ten minutes into the game Jasper stood and did a victory cry of sorts. Emmett got up and stalked off, apparently angry at how he had lost. I could take Jasper with one hand...
"Anybody else wanna try?"
I stood, placed my coffee on a coaster and walked over. Picked up the controller.
"Lets do this then. Boys VS. Girls." Just then, like that was a declaration of war Alice, Rose, Emmett and Edward all gathered into the living room. Esme and Carlisle in tow.
Me and Jasper started the game, he was good, but not good enough. You live with five guys, Halo becomes like a second life to you. In the end i won by a landslide. I got up cracked my knuckles walked to my coffee picked it up and grabbed my lighter. I held it up and nodded towards Edward. I walked out of the room and heard everyone laughing.
Outside. Was my intended destination. But Emmett cut me off.
"Bella. Umm..Carlisle came to me and said that you needed like a fire pit or something to help with youre obsession...Just wondering...what is it?"
I smiled, pulled out my lighter and lit it.
He looked confused for a second and then he looked like he understood.
"Youre a pyro arent you?"
I nodded, keeping to my no speaking treaty.
"Okay, and i was wondering...Alice unpacked your bag-"
I cut him off with a yell
"What!?! Why did she do that? Ohmygod." I lowered my voice
"did she find my weed?"
He nodded "Shit. i knew something was going to get fucked up. Did she tell anyone?"
"I think she only told us but she just left your duffle alone after that. Im pretty sure she put it back. all i know is that she called us into her room and told us she found weed in your all. She said she put it back and your duffle is next to your bed. I was just wondering...Do you think you could share?"
My brow furrowed and i cocked my head to the side.
"Share with who Em?"
"with me Bella, With me and Edward and Jazz and maybe Rose. But Do you?"
"sure. Why not? Of course. ive got a few ounces...didnt get out much at the home you know? Used to smoke with my friends back in Arizona all the time. Never went more than 2 or 3 days without it."
He laughed loud and picked me up in a huge hug.
"Thank you thank you thank you"
"Em, Cant breathe" I gasped. Knowing he was big and strong but not that strong.
"Sorry. ill go talk to Eddie, Jazz and Rose."
"Em...why doesnt Alice smoke it?"
"She says it messes with her color coordination. but shes not a snitch. Hey, Meet you in your room in 10?"
"Yeah."
So in 10 minutes i was sitting in my room an O in the baggie in my back pocket, lighter in my front, pipe in my other front pocket, rolling papers in my back. Ready to go.
Emmett came bursting in my room with Edward, Rose, Jasper, and Alice?
"Hi guys. Ready to go?"
A chorus of yeses reached my ears and i stopped for a second.
"Alice...I thought you didnt smoke...?"
"Oh, well, i thought maybe, it being your first time smoking with people who arent your normal friends i thought id do it for you."
"Thanks. It makes me happy to know that youre willing to do that to make me feel comfortable. But you dont have to if you dont want to."
"Oh, ive always wanted to but you know...With...I...I just didnt want to be the bad one."
"But the other four are smoking it too"
"Well, yeah, but you know of Esme's actual kids, i wanted to be good."
"That makes sense."
And i turned and followed Emmett out into the little burn pit he made for me so i could continue to burn things at my will.
"Here, is where i made the little pit. I dont know, this is where we always come to smoke it and i thought you might..."
"Em, i love it. Thank you."
I ran up to him and gave him a kiss on the cheek.
And then i hung back. to talk with Edward.
"so its clear you CAN speak but you dont like to around Carlisle or Esme. Why?"
"When i lived with my parents in Arizona, all i did was got in trouble for running my mouth. So i figured if i didnt talk at all then maybe id get to stay here."
"Bella, you should know, my parents they...they dont give up. Once youre in this family youre here for good. whether or not you want to stay. youre here."
"I kinda guessed."
"Yo! Bella! we gunna get burning or what?" Emmett ive known him for a day and i already love him.
"Im coming im coming"
I ran up and asked if i could start a fire first. of course. Emmett wanted to see me in action. So i gathered all kinds of twigs and logs and branches. All dry, they had to be. I grabbed some dried up leave and stuck them on top. I lit those those caught the twigs on fire, then the branches and finally the logs.
"Damn Bella, Nice. You got skill girl."
"Pyro, Em. Pyro."
They all laughed, until i pulled out the weed. They all put on serious faces, The very dramatically, i pulled out the pipe and rolling papers. I could see the fear on Alice's face.
"Ali, calm down. Its not like one joint is gunna kill ya."
Poor honey.
"Okay,So i have no idea if youre a joint person or a pipe person. So you gotta let me know..."
Emmett, Jasper, and Rose all said Joint and me and Edward are pipe people.
"Ali, you gotta make a choice. Joints are a little harsher. So i think you should stick with Edward and me when i say pipe."
She nodded her head and Edward took his arm and put it around her. I pulled the weed and packed a pipe, and rolled a joint handing the joint to Emmett i also gave him my lighter.
"Emmett be careful that lighter means more to me than being here does."
I heard a whispered "damn" and Emmett took my baby.
He lit the joint quickly and handed me my lighter.
"Okay Ali. Crash course on pipe smoking. you put your finger over this little hole right here" I pointed to the hole that im still not quite sure was there "An then you light the lighter and hold it over the bowl like this." I imitated what she was supposed to do "And inhale. Its gunna burn and shit but you gotta keep it in for like a half a minute. Okay? After that half minute you can cough and cough all you want. you can choke, but dont let it out until after at least 15 seconds."
She gave me a small nod and motioned for me to continue. I looked at Edward for confirmation that i could get the first hit. He nodded his head solemnly.
I did what was supposed to be done really slow, so Ali would be able to see how its done. I took the hit an held it, held it,held it, and release. I passed it to Edward and he did it the same way i did. Alice understood. Edward passed the pipe to her. She stared at it with huge eyes.
"Okay, here goes nothing." She did it perfectly for a first timer. And she hit it hard...Really hard. Too hard for a first timer.
"Woah, Ali. Dont go over board. Cut it off there. Now hold it hold it hold it hold it. And release." She let go the giant puff of smoke she held in her lungs.
"Damn Ali. This isnt your first time. Any other first timer would have choked the first 2 seconds with that hit. Youre not a first timer...Are you?"
"Well...No. I had found the weed in Eddie's sock drawer and i was always curious and i stole his pipe too. That as the only night i had Jessica over. She was a pot head, but she was a bitch too, and she taught me how. I just...Ive done it a few times. But never with anyone else."
We all stared shocked.
"oh! wait i got this from Carlisle's Cellar." She pulled a bottle of tequila out of her pink purse and Emmett ran over and grabbed it out of her hands.
"Carlisle's Cellar? He doesnt let anyone in there...Howd you get it?"
"every year he lets me go through and count his wine, whiskey, and shit like that. So took that and didnt count it."
"But how'd you get out with out him knowing.?"
"Hello? cellar door? i stuck it through there and took it into my room in my coach."
wow. Ali definiately wasnt the goody two shoes i had her pinned as.
"Damn Alice. Tequila riding in your coach? its more special then i am."
"oh, Jazzy. Nothing is more important than you. If you fit youd be in my prada. And you wouldnt leave either."
"Here that Em? Im Prada material." He gave Emmett a cocky smile.
I couldnt help but to laugh and grab the bottle out of Em's hands...paws...Whatever. I opened it and took a glug or five.
"Bella! Damn, i thought you could only smoke weed. I was horribly wrong. Again."
I laughed and took another glug. I passed it to Edward, i think. He took a glug and passed it on. and we kept passing it and passing an passing. By the time it got to me i finished it off and we were all stumbling drunk. Rose was on Emmett's lap and they were making out. I just kept turning my head everywhere until bright forest green eyes took me away, away from the forest, the couples and i found myself walking towards them. I sat down in his lap and hesitantly turned my head towards his. My eyes were focused on his and his alone. i leaned closer and closer. His hand moved to cup my face. His thumb gently caressing my cheekbone. I leaned in further and our lips met for the most brief of moments. And then we got closer an our lips met with a need that was unknown. The kiss shot currents of electricity coursing through my body. Causing my heart rate to burst upwards and not come down. His tongue slid across my bottom lip,begging forthe entrance that i granted. Our tongues danced and fought a tragic tale of cat an mouse. He pulled away and we were both gasping for breath. His hungry lips trailed down my neck, licking, sucking, and kissing every inch. From my lips to my jawbone down to behind my earlobe down my neck and stopping momentarily to the junction in my neck where my shoulder moulds into it. and continuing down to my collar bone. My moans were echoing off of the walls of the cave. Wait. Cave?! shit. Where am i? i opened my eyes and saw everybody else in a similar postion, but they were still passed out. I got up, swiped the leaves off of me and kicked Em in the side. He grunted and rolled over.
"Emmett. Wake up, you doof."
He turned back over and squinted at me.
"Bella? what time is it?"
"Holy shit, its fucking 4 in the morning! Emmett help me wake up the others!"
He got on his hands and knees an crawled over to Rose, waking her with a sweet kiss.
I turned and walked towards Ali.
"Hey there, Champ. Gotta get up. Come on lets get you to bed."
Ali looked like hell and smelt like the forest dirt. She got up an went to go get her significant other.
I walked towards Edwards resting place. He looked so peaceful. So serene it as almost a crime to wake him up.
"Edward" i said softly, just so i didnt startle him. "Edward Dear, wake up. Come on whe have to get back to your house before Carlisle and Esme wake up."
He opened one eye and said softly "just five more minutes Bella?" The way my name rolled off his tongue made me shiver in pleasure.
"Sorry Edward. I cant. Its four A.M. Weve been gone since 10:30. We gotta go babe." I trie using my sexy voice that i used on Lannie whenever i wanted something he said i coulnt have.
He grabbed my arm an pulled me towards him.
"I Love the way you purr my name Isabella. I think its my favorite sound."
He kissed my cheek and stood. Holding out his hand so i could get up. But i was frozen in place. Did he really just say that to me? Did last night happen, and i was just lost and thought i was in a cave? I had to shake my head clear the thoughts. The other four were waiting for us on the edge of the woods.
"Geez, we thought you guys got lost." Yeah, lost in his eyes.
"Maybe you had gone wandering" Into a sea of pleasure and excitement.
"Yeah, well, here we are, so no need to worry."
The all looked at each other and laughed. I mustve blushed 10 different reds. we walked quickly to the house and departed into our seperate rooms. I changed into my pjamas, a sheer dark blue tank and boy shorts, and jumped into bed with the thought that me and Edward might have kissed. I smiled at the thought but i was soon interupted by a knock at my door. i got up and answered the door. Who was there but Edward Cullen himself? Looking very good i might add in only his black silk boxers.
"Bella?"
"Hmm?" i mumbled still staring at his perfectly sculpted chest.
"Bella when we kissed i....got lost. I thought we were in a meadow somewhere and honsetly i would like to go back to that place. soon."
"So we really did kiss? I thought it was a dream. It was just too good. And i got lost too. I thought we were in a cave."
He chuckled and i took that time ti grab hime and pull him into my room. He directed it so i was on bottom bot he asnt crushing me. and then he id it. He crashed his lips into mine and the electricity was back. Making me pull him closer threading my hands into his hair i began to softly tug at it, making him moan and me moan at him moaning. He kept going and reached his hand under my shirt. Softly caressing my stomach and moving upwards. I broke away and grabbed his hands.
"Edward i really dont think thats a good idea."
"Why not?"
"Edward, im a virgin. and i dont want to lose something so precious in the throes of lust and passion. I want it to be right."
He nodded.
"I agree. I want It to be right for you, not just me. Bella, i want so much for you. More than that, I want you. More than ive ever wanted anybody.I know it sounds weird me just meeting you and all but, the first time i saw you, without the tears, i started tripping over my feet. Bella, i care for you, and then me being the frst you spoke to, still makes me smile. Especially how you clung to my neck when you first got here. and i know it sounds really bad but i also liked how you pleaded with me to stay with you. Bella, i dont think i want you to leave, Ever. No matter what. Please stay."
"Edward, with you here it would be impossible for me to leave you. And i... honestly felt safe with you there. I never wanted you to leave me. And i stuck my head in the crook of your neck was to make sure that i inhaled as much of your scent as possible. i never wanted to forget it. Eward, i care about you too. And i dont think i wouldve opened up to anyone else. And for you ill talk to Carlisle and esme tomorrow morning. I promise."
"For me? Thank you Bella. Thank you thank you thank you."
"On one condition though."
"Name your terms"
"You say My name like you did in the woods."
"Isabella" My name rolled of his tongue in the most seuctive way that i jumped forward and continued my furious attack on his mouth. At about 5 A.M. we went to bed. he slept with me though. and i was truly truly happy for the first time in months.
