I shut the door loudly, and Alice jumped from the couch. I'm not going to comment on Jasper falling from the couch. Why were they in my apartment, anyway?
"You're back early!" she said adjusting her shirt.
"That son of a bitch, motherfucker, piece of shit…" I grumbled going to my room.
"Ahn, I should… go" Jasper mumbled.
I shut my room's door loudly too, and went to my closet. A minute later Alice came in.
"What happened?" she asked quietly.
I tore the pictures from the walls, threw his shirts in the floor, and broke his CD's. I took off my sheets and Alice watched everything with a frown.
"I guess… Jake did something?" she asked.
"That… Fucker!" I said tearing one of his shirts.
"What did he do?" Alice asked.
"He forgot what day was today!"
"Shit" she mumbled.
"Yeah! And he said I shouldn't expect him to do something for a relationship that just he works on!"
"What!"
"He said, I'm a cold heartless woman, and that I never, ever, do something for him! That I'm just into work, and expecting that he makes the relationship perfect"
"So, you broke up?"
"Hell yeah! The son of a bitch said we should see other people!"
"Okay… Sorry"
I shook my head, and picked everything from the floor. I passed her, and went to the door.
"Where are you going?" Alice asked following and grabbing a bottle of vodka.
"I'm going to throw these away, and when I come back, you better have more of that!" I said nodding to the bottle.
She nodded and opened the door for me. I walked down the hall and clashed with someone. I was about to glare, yell at the person when I saw it was Edward.
"Hey…?" he said hesitantly, "Shouldn't you be at Jacob's apartment?"
I glared at him and he stepped back.
"Don't. Shut the fuck up, now!" I growled.
"Okay…" he said carefully.
I walked past him, and he followed me downstairs.
"What are you doing with all that?" he asked. "Is that Jacob's shirt?"
"I'm going to throw away"
"Why?"
"We are over. So, so over. He's dead to me. Or he'll be definitely dead to everyone. Do you want help me kill him!"
"Let me guess… He screwed up" he said sounding amused. He never really liked Jake.
I got to the floor where the trash was disposed and Edward helped me throw everything away. I turned around and walked to the stairs, Edward following me. I stopped, leaned against the wall, and slid down, until I was sitting in the steps. Edward sat beside me, not saying a word. He always knew when not to talk.
"What's wrong with me?" I asked quietly.
"Nothing. But what's wrong with Jacob…? A lot" Edward said.
"He's right. I'm a cold, heartless bitch" I mumbled stretching my legs in front of me.
"He called you that!" Edward growled.
"No. He said, a cold, heartless, workaholic, life sucking woman"
"You're not"
"I am. I'm always working. I want prince charming, but I don't work for it. And I don't spend a minute working on a relationship. It was so obvious this would happen. My mom told me this before college. 'If you keep this up, you'll end single, with five cats, and cranky' she said. I think I'll buy a cat" I mumbled.
"From what I hear you consider your mom a bitch" he said.
"She is. But she seems right"
"She's not. Bella, you'll find the right guy"
"When? I don't have time!"
"When you find a guy who understands that, that's prince charming, or whatever"
"Right" I snorted, "Did you see Cosmopolitan this week?"
"No, what does Cosmopolitan have to do about…?"
"It says that women who dated twenty men, or more, will probably end alone" I sighed.
"So…?"
"My number is 23" I said and huffed, "No, 24 with Jacob"
"That article is bullshit"
"Stop, you're trying to comfort me. But it's true I'll end alone"
"You'll always have us" he said putting an arm around my shoulders. "Let's go get you a drink"
I nodded and we stood up, and walked to my apartment. When we came in Alice smiled weakly.
"Edward, good, you're here" she said, "Bella, do you mind Edward staying with you? Jazz…"
"Oh! Of course, Alice! Yeah, you can go. I'm sorry I interrupted you guys. Go!" I said shooing her.
She gave me the bottle of vodka, a kiss in the cheek and walked out. I sighed and opened the bottle. Edward took off his coat, and went to the kitchen to get glasses.
"Edward, you can go…"
"You don't want me here?" he asked carefully.
"No. But you and Tanya must have plans… It's Valentines day…"
"We broke up last night" he said smiling.
"What! Why? Are you okay?"
"Yeah" he shrugged, "She was saying something about rings for Valentines day, so I thought it was getting too out of hand"
"You dumped her because you were getting serious!" I asked, "Wow, I would be mad at you for doing something like that, but… She was a bitch"
"Really? How?"
"Forget it" I shrugged and took a glass from him and sat in the table.
"Tell me" he said sitting down across from me.
"She threatened me"
"What!"
"She told me to stay away from you, or I would get seriously hurt"
"Why didn't you tell me?"
"Because I thought you liked her"
"She can't do that! No one can do that to you!"
"It's over, so leave it alone"
He sighed and took the vodka I gave him.
"To ended relationships!" he said lifting his glass.
"To bitches and son of bitches!" I said.
He smiled and we downed our drinks.
*.*.*.*.*.*.*.*.*.*.*.*.*.*.*.*.*.*.*.*.*.*.*.*.*.*.*.*.*.*.*.*.*.*.*.*.*.*.*.*.*.*.*.*.*.*
"Alice must be freaking kidding me" I groaned as I entered my apartment.
"Hey!" Edward said getting out of his apartment across from mine.
"Hi"
"Ahn, my sister transformed my apartment in her wedding office, or whatever. There's wedding things everywhere"
"My apartment is better" I said.
He smiled and closed his door walking to mine. I closed my door, and smiled.
"But if you come in, you'll have to help me with something" I said.
"Okay" he said.
I smiled hugely and walked in. He followed me and groaned.
"What's this?" he asked closing the door.
My living room and kitchen were filled with boxes.
"Alice wants me to sent the invitations, and to make sure the souvenirs are perfect"
"And I'll have to help you with that?"
"Yeah, that was the deal"
He frowned and turned around, ready to leave, but I gripped the back of his shirt and dragged him to the living room. Of course it was just playfully, I could never really drag Edward. He plopped down in the couch and I took the phone.
"I'm ordering pizza. What do you want?"
"Whatever is good for you"
I nodded and asked for a large pizza. I got us a couple bottles of beer, and sat beside him in the couch.
"Okay, let's do this" I said opening my bottle.
He nodded and turned on the TV. He put on MTV and we opened the invitations boxes listening to a new pop song.
"Okay, I'll get the addresses list" I said.
I got up and walked to my room, and got the little book Alice gave me in my nightstand. As I walked to the living room, the doorbell rang. I walked to the door, and opened it for the delivery guy.
"Your neighbor let me in" the guy said.
"Oh, that's cool" I said taking a bill from my pocket, "Keep the change"
"Thanks!"
He gave me the box and left. I walked to the living room and Edward put the invitations boxes aside, giving room for the pizza. I threw the book on top of one box, and attacked the pizza.
"How was your day?" he asked.
"Nothing special. You?"
"Same" he said, "Though Jasper was freaking out, and it was kind of funny"
"He was freaking out?"
"Yeah. Alice was stressed, yelling at him over the phone, and he was losing his patience over this wedding, and she snapped and told him maybe would be better to cancel everything. He freaked out, and started doing everything he could about the wedding, even asking the receptionist what kind of flowers would be perfect. Emm and I had a good time watching him running around, and trying to talk to Alice"
"Poor Jazz" I said laughing, "Alice is being a little harsh on everyone lately"
"Yeah, get together PMS and wedding plans, and you have a serial killer"
I laughed and leaned back in the couch, eating pizza and watching video clips. There was a video on about a perfect couple, or whatever and I sighed.
"Why can't I find that guy?" I asked.
"Because he's like… seventeen. It would be pedophilia" Edward said laughing and I slapped his arm.
"No. I mean… The perfect, sweet, cute guy, who would like me for who I am, and show me what true love is, and… We would marry and have kids… a house and a dog…"
"You say like it was impossible"
"For me it is"
"It's not"
"It is! I'm 27, Edward. I'm not getting younger, or prettier. And guys just look for 22-year-olds, that have time to do relationships, and are still college crazy, and are just… silly"
"Do you want to be silly?" he asked amused.
"No. I want a guy to make me feel silly"
"That's stupid"
"Men are so insensible" I groaned.
Another song started, and this had a more adult-themed video.
"See, that's what you need" Edward said pointing his bottle to the TV, "I can feel your sexual tension pouring off. You need a good fuck, and then, you'll feel better, and stop this mood"
"I do need to have sex" I sighed, "But that wouldn't solve my problems. Because I expect too much to just… fuck. I always over think"
"You just need the act. Not the thought, not the feeling, not the emotion. Just the act of fucking. Like play… tennis. You do it, not think it, and never feel something for it, or have a connection to the other player. When the game is over, you shake hands and part ways" Edward said, "Why women always like to complicate something simple?"
"I don't know" I sighed, "I'm going to get another beer. Want more?"
"Yeah"
He gave me his bottle and I got up, and bent to pick up the napkins, and stuff on the floor. When I got up and glanced at Edward I could swear he was checking out my ass. No, he wouldn't. I went to the kitchen and got us more beer.
"Hey! Let's play tennis!" Edward said from the living room.
"Ahn, in the Wii? Yeah, sure!" I said washing my hands.
He walked in the kitchen and stood in front of me.
"No, I mean… sex" he said.
"What?" I asked confused.
"Look, you're frustrated, need a good fuck, without feelings. I'm horny as hell, and can't deal with a woman's feelings. So, let's do it"
"You mean like…"
"Just sex"
"Just sex?" I said shocked, "Edward, what are you saying? Thinking!"
"Come on, it's perfect. I'll help you, you help me. No feelings, emotions. Not love, just pure and simple sex. No one will know, and will beneficiate both of us. Scratching the itch"
I stared at him for a moment and he took a step closer.
"Everything will be the same after sex?" I asked.
I couldn't believe I was actually considering. This sounded like recipe to disaster.
"Exactly the same" he promised.
"You swear? No emotions, no feelings, no complications? Just sex?"
"I swear"
"Okay…" I said, "Let's test this. Say something about my body, without feelings, or emotions. Something… you wouldn't say normally"
"You have beautiful eyes" he said, "They are big, deep brown pools, and I could drown into them" he said.
I stared at him shocked. My eyes were so boring, just plain brown. But he was being sincere, and it made me smile. It sounded a little emotional, but I wasn't going to complain.
"Your lips" I said, "Especially when you give that crooked smile. They seemed kissable. Seem like a good kisser's lips"
"I am" he said smugly, "Your boobs"
"My boobs?"
"Yeah, they are… delightful" he said and I saw his finger twitch.
"Really?" I asked looking down at my boobs, "They are so small"
"Perfect. I bet they fit perfectly in a hand. That's better, and… they are boobs doesn't matter the size"
"Okay… Your hair"
"Your ass"
"Your back"
"Legs"
"Chest"
"Hands"
"Abs"
"Your neck"
I was starting to get turn on, so I decided that was it.
"Let's start" I said and walked to my room. "I don't do kinky, naughty stuff. Just regular sex" I said taking off my shirt.
"Right" Edward said unbuttoning his shirt, "No bites in sensitive area"
"No bites in places people can see. Better, no bites at all"
"But nibbling is fine, right?"
"Yeah. I'm not a toy for you to play around, or experiment with" I said taking off my shorts.
"Same. I'm ticklish in the chin" he said taking off his pants.
We stopped a moment seeing each other in just underwear. Edward was already hard, and I could tell he was well… endowed. I smiled and unclasped my bra. Edward grinned, ogling shamelessly.
"Sometimes I can be difficult to… come. Don't worry, if you weren't doing great, I would have stopped you" I said.
"I sneeze when I come" Edward said.
"Really?"
"Yeah"
"Okay"
I pulled my panties down and he licked his lips.
"Wow, you're… amazing" he said.
"Thanks"
He took off his boxer briefs, and I smiled, before biting my lip.
"Will do" I said teasing him.
He smiled knowing I was just teasing and we walked to each other, before attacking each other's mouths. Oh God, he was a good kisser. His tongue did wonders. We fell on my bed, with him on top of me. He pulled away, kissing my jaw and neck.
"You didn't shave?" I asked.
"No, sorry. I didn't expect…"
"Oh, it's fine. I like the stubble"
He nodded against my neck and his hands gripped my thighs, trailing up. His hands cupped my breasts, and I moaned and pushing my chest out, urging him. He smiled against my collarbone and attacked a nipple with his mouth.
"Oh!" I moaned thrusting my hips up.
"You are sexually frustrated"
"Fuck you"
"Soon" he said.
He went back to kiss me, and we rolled so I was on top.
"I can't believe we're doing this" I said against his lips.
"Do you want to stop? We can go play real tennis, in the Wii, I mean" he said against my lips.
"No. I mean… I can't believe I'm doing casual sex"
"Why?"
"Seems so… college-ish"
"It's sex"
I thought for a moment then concluded, "Sounds good"
He nodded, and rolled us over, attacking my mouth. He started kissing lower, and lower until he was under my breasts.
"What are you doing?" I asked breathless.
"Relax" he said against my stomach.
I felt his mouth on me, and gasped. After a couple minutes I had to stop him.
"Edward, stop" I said.
He poked his head out from under the sheets.
"Why?"
"Because you're awful"
"No, I'm not"
"Your tongue was almost in my uterus. What were you doing? Trying to dig a way to China?"
"Girls like that"
"No they don't"
"They do"
"Who said?"
"The girls I dated. They said I was good"
"They were lying!"
"Fine" he grumbled, "Teach me then"
I leaned down, and sighed.
"Be gentler" I said.
He kissed me softly, and my body started warming. He followed my instructions until the point I was incoherent.
"Oh, God! Edward" I moaned.
He hummed in response and licked me. I screamed and he snapped up.
"What?"
"Nothing" I breathed.
"Then why were you screaming? I get freaked out when women scream…"
"Just keep going!" I said pushing his head back.
A couple minutes later, an orgasm, he climbed up, smiling.
"You taste good" he said.
I smiled and ran my fingers through his messy hair.
"You're getting good"
I rolled us over and pulled away. He gave me a confused look until he realized where I was going.
"I don't like it slow. And definitely no teeth, just softly…" he said.
I took him in my mouth and started sucking, and licking and he sat up, gripping my hair.
"Holy… shit!" he groaned.
I hummed and he thrust into my mouth. I cupped his balls gently, and he grunted, coming in my mouth, and he did sneeze. I pulled back and grinned.
"You taste good too" I said.
He stared at me in awe, and attacked my mouth, rolling us over. A couple minutes of friction and he was ready. He pushed into me, and we both took a minute to adjust.
"Fuck! You're… so tight and warm…" he groaned.
"I… can feel… everything" I said breathing heavy.
He started thrusting into me roughly and soon we were close to our climaxes. I dug my nails on his back, moaning.
"Edward!"
He nipped on my shoulder, before slipping his hand between us, and massaging my clit, bringing me over the edge. I screamed, and my whole body shook with the intensity of my orgasm, and Edward slowed down a little.
"Faster" I moaned.
He grunted and started fucking me faster, harder, filling me completely. Soon I was riding another orgasm and he was too. He sneezed and collapsed on top of me and after a moment he rolled over, laying beside me. After a few minutes we both calmed down from our highs, and I turned my head to him.
"It was just this once" I said, but kind of sounded like a question.
"Yeah" he breathed.
