Chapter One:

Sweet Jealousy

(EPOV)

This…is so…unfair.

What's worse is that I'm completely unjustified in my thinking. But what's even worse than that is my Bella is completely oblivious as to what she's doing to me. She just keeps doing it over, and over, and over again. I don't know if I stand much more of this.

Ugh! That sweet tongue of hers just keeps on slowly gliding up that sickeningly looking candy cane, again. She's just sitting next me at the kitchen table…quietly enjoying licking and softly sucking on that stupid candy cane. That stick of peppermint, sugar, and corn syrup smelled worse than the dinner Bella was currently cooking in the oven for Charlie.

I can't believe that I'm jealous of a candy cane

She quietly closed her honey-like mouth around the end of the candy cane once more.

Oh, how I wish I was that candy cane.

"Edward? What's wrong?" The object of my affection asked, pausing from her seemingly happy activity, her entrancing brown eyes swimming with curiosity and concern.

And then she did it again- while looking right at me. I bit my lip.

"Nothing," I replied quietly, looking away briefly in shame…and desire.

She just stared at me. For a moment I wondered if she could read my mind, know all the things I was thinking I wanted to do with her…

"No, really- what's wrong? You're looking at me funny."

All the tension I was feeling just continued to build as I kept looking into those deep brown eyes, then down to her- now even more- red, full lips.

I couldn't take it any more.

I took her face in my hands and pressed my lips against hers- slowly, relishing the taste of her. She softly sighed as I moved her onto my lap, our breathing becoming a little heavier as our lips became more desperate.

After a few more moments I reluctantly pulled away, allowing her to breathe. Her eyes were glazed over as we just sat there, gazing at each other…until I heard a familiar car approaching. I sighed sadly, So much for stealing her attention.

"Charlie?" She asked in response.

"Yes," I replied as helped her get up.

She started to walk over to the oven, glancing back at me a moment before she bumped into the counter.

I smiled as I realized that had succeeded in- once again- dazzling her. I admit I couldn't help but feel a bit smug knowing that there were many things a candy cane couldn't do.
