''Forever,' he agreed, and then pulled us gently into deeper water.' – Breaking Dawn (ch 5, pg 85), Stephanie Meyer
I relaxed and let his strong arm pull me through the water, towards his body, which disappeared into a white shadow beneath the surface. I wondered whether, with his superior senses, he would be able to se my naked body despite being underwater. I blushed at the thought and he sighed and pulled my to him at last. I gasped as our bare chests met for the first time. I pulled back slightly to admire the sight, raking my fingers over the smooth contours, our skin almost the same colour in the cool moonlight. He had allowed me to remove his shirt in the past few weeks as we 'practiced', but still had refused my desire to explore him for more than a few minutes before pulling away. But tonight all barriers were down; I was free to claim every inch of him. There was so much of him that I wanted to see, wanted to experience, that I couldn't think where to start. But as one of my hands lightly grazed his nipple, causing him to shudder, I decided to stop thinking and just let go.
I let my fingers trail down his chest and held him firmly by the hips. I kissed his neck, along his and jaw and under his ear. He tried to capture my lips with his, but I twisted away with a teasing smile and pressed them against his collarbone. He shuddered again and pressed his hands to my lover back, bending me against him. He groaned and lowered his lips to my ear as I continued to lavish his throat.
'Bella…You're driving me crazy. Let me touch you –'
'Ah!' I said, pulling back again and holding one hand over his mouth. 'Patience is a virtue Edward. Just give me a few minutes to get to know my husband.'
He smiled at the word and closed his eyes. I started kissing his chest again, now letting the trail head down towards his right nipple. I stopped just before I came to it and glanced up at his face. His eyes were still closed and his jaw was clenched tight. When I hadn't moved for a few moments his eyes snapped open to stare at me – and the need behind them was obvious. Holding his gaze I snaked out my tongue and tentatively licked the bud. He took in a shakey breath and clenched his fingers tighter on my lower back.
'Do that again,' he muttered through clenched teeth. 'Please…'
I smiled and hastened to oblige, licking and suckling on him until we were both panting. I could feel his arousal pressing hard against my stomach. His eyes were closed again as he tried to gain control of his unnessesary breathing.
Slowly I drew myself up and ground my body against him. a growl ripped from deep inside his chest and his hands flew to my hips to keep them still.
'Bella, love. Hold on for one minute…'
'Edward, don't you dare try and –'
'I'm not going back on my work, I just need to slow down for a second, to get my control back, to get my breath back.'
I smiled again, realising that I hadn't done something wrong. 'Edward, you don't even need to breath.'
'It's your fault, for awakening every human part of me, temptress,' he crooned, kissing my face before, finally, our lips met, dancing against each other in a familiar way, but with the edge of knowing that he wouldn't pull away, that tonight something would be completed.
But then he did pull away, with a chuckle. I was about to protest when I saw his eyes linger down my body, settling on the part of me hidden underwater.
'You're right, though,' he said. 'I don't need to breathe. Maybe this could come in handy.'
He flashed his crooked smile and pressed his lips to my throat and began to copy my earlier path. However, he didn't pause and suddenly my nipped was engulfed by his cool mouth, his icy tongue tracing and pressing against the sensitive tip. I gasped and arched against him, knotting my fingers in his hair.
When he released me from his mouth I almost cried with disappointment until I realised that his trail of kisses was heading even further south. His eyes darted up to take in my surprised and lust-consumed face before ducking his head under the water. The warm waves swirled around me, the reflected moon seemingly close enough to touch as he began to devour me. His fingers combed through my dark curls and into the folds spreading me. His head surfaced for a moment to watch my face as he sunk one finger inside of me. I fought to keep my eyes open, to focus on his face, as he began to slowly pump it in and out.
'God, Bella. You're so…'
'Wet?' I joked, splashing him, slightly embarrassed by how earnestly he was watching me.
'Yes,' he groaned, taking no notice of my lame joke. 'And hot. And tight,' he growled and slid in another finger. I groaned as well and pushed myself against him, leaning back into the water. He lay one arm under my back to keep me floating and ducked his head back under the surface. I almost screamed when I felt his tongue spread through my folds. The cold muscle lapped me up, searching through the heat for that secret bundle of nerves. Despite his lack of experience, his reading appeared to have paid off. His tongue snaked gradually up towards the bud, teasing me so that when he finally pressed against it I growled and writhed against him.
Needing no air, he greedily ate me up, the water flowing and splashing over my convoluting body. I clenched at his hair, trying to keep quiet, whimpering under his delicious torture. But when he slipped his fingers back in me, curling them towards his face and pressed against that other secret spot, I exploded.
'Edward! God, don't stop…don't stop…yes! Yes, yes! Ah!'
I came undone around him, hands pulling at his hair with force that would have hurt a human man, my toes curling and pressing against the flat of his back. He continued to devour me until I relaxed. Grinning to himself, he pulled his head from the ocean, shaking the water out of his hair. He pulled me to him and I pressed my head to his chest, wrapping my legs around his waist. I was still gasping for air and occasionally quivering form what he had just done to me. He waited for me and gently rubbed my back and kissed my neck.
Eventually I had calmed down enough to kiss him back. But when I started to rub against him he pulled back and chuckled.
'Bella, would you mind if we moved inside? I want to see all of you at once.'
I smiled and nodded meekly, kissing his throat again as he gripped my hips and ran with superhuman speed into the house.
So that's Chapter One. If I get enough reviews I can extend this to include a lemon in Chapter Two. Reviews are love, and suggestions are very welcome! Love, S.
