Hey All!

Just a little extra info, Bella, Edward, Alice and Jasper have moved to New York. Rose and Emmett are currently in Europe.
This is taking place when they have just arrived in New York, so a few months after we ended.
Enjoy
Bella POV
"Shit fuck shit" I heard jasper curse as he hobbled away from the huge moving van
"Dude, language. Were new here do you want to get a reputation as being an annoying foul mouth neighbour" I said folding my arms
"Stupid fucking box full of books, hit my fucking foot" he muttered "and I'm not annoying, I'm delightfully quirky"
I laughed at his slight absurdity and went to help him bring my books into my room. First day in the big new city and I was loving it, the bustle of a big city was making me desperate to go running round to see everything, I wanted to wander round Central Park and go to the top of the Empire State Building but first was the small matter of unpacking. I was perfectly content with my dad bringing me in my truck as he offered but Alice completely vetoed that idea by stating she had way too much crap to fit into the bed of my truck and therefore she hired a huge delivery van to bring all of hers and my stuff here, unlucky for the boys she said their was no room left and so they had to fit all there stuff in Edwards Volvo and Carlisle's car. He had managed to sneak some things into my boxes without Alice seeing though which made his load slightly easier!
Looking up and down the big residency which was going to be out new home I couldn't help but shiver with excitement about what we were going to face, the building looked amazing and I couldn't wait to get inside to see exactly what we had. When I told everyone that I was coming to New York too the first initial response was shock then excitement pretty much but when it came to living with more people Alice refused point blank and declared It would cramp her artistic abilities so here we are living in a two bedroom apartment intended for seven people. I'm pretty much thanking my lucky stars that I had a fair bit of my college fund along with surprising amounts from both the parents or I would be sharing a room with 6 other people. Of course a job would be the next step but I suppose I could just off that bridge when I come to it.
Just then I felt a pair of strong arms wrap round my wait and a soft voice in my ear
"Welcome home" he whispered softly causing me to shiver.
Did I mention Edward and Jasper are living in the same building, right opposite us? It's amazing what an important doctor daddy can do I tell you
"Welcome home yourself boy" I mumbled turning round and pulling him into a soft kiss "So you gonna help me with my stuff or what?" I asked pulling away slightly and crawling up into the truck to grab more of my boxes.
For some strange reason me and Edward were still together, even stranger he still wanted to be with me. I'm not knocking it or anything really it just seemed like what with the way we got together and all we wouldn't last long, or be too different, but we surprised me even more each day with how alike and compatible we were. I was taking each day as it came and so far everyday had been a blessing, summer had been the best ever and my relationship with Edward had moved from platonic to completely and utterly physical.
We did take it slow, I still found it and still do find it difficult to trust after what he did to me before but we're strong and he was happy to wait as long as I wanted. We carried on with our steps exploring new things together and I slowly began to want it more and more, I'm not going to spout some crap about how the earth moved and it was amazing and the best thing that ever happened because it hurt like a bitch but he was there holding my hand, kissing me softly and whispering how much he loved me in my ear the whole time making me more desperate for him to be closer. I don't know how but it had cemented our relationship somewhat, if it was possible I felt even more like myself around him now.
Telling Alice and Rose had been another matter altogether, well not telling them, for some reason Alice has this uncanny ability to know things, she took one look at me and asked me if it was worth that wait. Me, as per usual bushed like an idiot and pretty much gave the game away and after that they wanted a blow by blow discussion which I was way too embarrassed to tell but at least they knew what we were up to now and that was satisfactory for Alice.
Of course the past several days had seen an abundance of barricades to me getting my Edward Cullen sexy times in the form of Alice stating we needed to pack and unpack and pack again. I'm pretty sure he is becoming as desperate as I am and is now thanking his lucky stars that we are finally here
"I'm gong to choose an apartment" he said hitting my ass playfully as I crawled into the truck
"Too late, Alice checked them out about a half hour ago and put our stuff in to claim it. Apparently ours has the best view" I said shrugging
"Damn" he said shaking his head
"Don't worry I'm sure yours is still lovely" I nodded in reassurance "Besides did you hear what they have here?" I said excitedly as he shook his head awaiting my response. I rolled my eyes
"Am I the only one that read the guide to the accommodation" I sighed "There is a baby grand piano in the building" and as soon as the words left my mouth his eyes lit up.
"Can I?" he asked expectantly like a child wanting to go on the swings
"Go I'm not your mother" shouted after him as he ran off.
Smirking to myself I grabbed a bag full of my clothes, made sure Jasper was watching the truck and started my decent upstairs. The lift was broken, fantastic! So I had to walk up three flights of stairs to get to our room but when I did my god it was worth it, the whole apartment was huge, the view was brilliant, well all I could really see was roads and more buildings but the widows were huge which made the view seem much more extravagant. The living room had a moderately sized TV and three seated and two seated sofas, the kitchen was adjoined to the living room creating an open space plan.
My room was easy to find considering Alice had thrown boxes and boxes labelled 'clothes' into hers. My room was stupidly huge, considering it was supposed to be for three people and there was just me I had oodles of room to put stuff and create it the way I wanted. It was simple in the sense that it has a double bed in the centre of the room pushed against the back wall, a table and chair next to yet another huge window and a small table next to the bed, there was a bookshelf screwed to the wall above the bed and a chest of drawers were pushed up against the free wall. There was a walk in closet to the left and only hoped that Alice had one aswell because there was no way I was switching rooms now. I looked at the bare bed and walls and suddenly began thinking of ways I could make it mine. Not being allowed to paint the walls was abit of a bitch but there were lots of ways I could make it me. I sighed happily looking round my new home and ran back downstairs to find Edward sitting on the edge of the truck swinging his legs idly
"Piano not playing nice" I asked walking up to him and standing in-between his legs
"Door was locked" he muttered "But I saw it from the window in the door, looks like I'm going to have some fun" he added flashing his crooked grin that I adored so much
"Oh I'm sorry, but since you're here you might aswell take some stuff upstairs now and stop moping around, you live here I'm sure you can play it some other time" I said grabbing a few more of my things.
"Yeah, sure" he mumbled walking round to the front of the van where he parked his Volvo.
"Where are Alice and Jasper by the way?" I asked grabbing the last of my things
"Alice went to get coffee and Jasper is upstairs unpacking" he said walking back over to me with his arms full of bags and a box labelled clothes which looked like it had been packed by Alice.
"I'm going to take these upstairs and then ill come and help you with the last of yours okay?" he said leaning over the boxes he was holding to give me a small feather like kiss which left me desperate for more. He flashed another beautiful grin and took off upstairs with all is things. I took my remaining bags out of the truck and closed it up, idly waiting for him to come back
"Hey, you moving in or moving out?" a girl said walking up to me, her strawberry blonde hair cascaded down her back and her blue eyes were just a touch too icy for me, she was pretty in an over the top conventional way but no where near the Rose standard.
God I miss Rose and Emmett...
"Moving in, were just starting at the college next week actually, are you a student?" I asked trying to make nice conversation
"Yeah I'm a student, second year. How cute is it that your all new" she said squeaking the last part of the sentence
"Yeah it's a hoot, I laugh at myself every day" I said rolling my eyes "So do you live in the building?" I said directing the conversation back to some normality
"Oh no I live in a pent house, just a nice little home for me to get my studies done" she said tilting her head to the side.
Right, a nice little home which daddy paid for no doubt
That's real nice, I'm Bella by the way" I said holding my hand out
"Tanya" she replied not shaking my hand, more just looking at it and smiling at me. I shot back her half smile and we fell into a somewhat awkward silence
"So the boxes are in my room, Jasper is almost unpacked, I'm super jealous of your apartment and where do you need to me to help now" Edward said walking through the entrance doors and wrapping an arm round my shoulder "Oh whose this?" he added smiling at my new acquaintance
"Tanya, pleasure to meet you" she said extending her arm out. I swear to god I almost saw her drooling, she couldn't keep her eyes off him and I think for the first time I became rather jealous. My arms instinctively went round his wait and I held him tightly to me
"So where are you living, are you living alone?" she asked in such a sugary sweet tone it made me sick
"We're just moving in upstairs" he smiled, why the fuck she was asking this again was beyond me considering I had just told her
"So are you single?" she asked, not beating around the question at all. But I'm sure both mine and Edward's reactions were exactly the same. His arm was round me, mine round him and she was asking if he was single. This girl must have a death wish
"Um, no I'm with Bella?" he said slowly almost as if he were talking to a child. She looked between the two of us several times as if she were trying to solve an extremely hard equation
"Oh, right. That's so nice of you" she said smiling again, only this time the smile was faltered slightly
"Well i'll see you around sometime Edward" she said and with that she walk away down the road.
"God, and I thought the girls in forks were bitches, this is a whole new ball game" I said sighing "Next time I see her I'm bitch slapping her" I huffed
"Do I detect some territorial disturbance there?" he asked smirking at me
"Just look at her! And she was so nasty and sarcastic to me. Y'know this is all your fault" I said hiding my smile
"You and only you can hold my attention" he whispered in my ear softly "Besides, I prefer brunettes"
"C'mon" I whispered back grabbing the last of my things and walking into the building with Edward following quickly behind me.
I dumped my stuff in my room and took a wander across the hall to see how the boys faired with their apartment. It was slightly smaller than ours, both the bedrooms being a fraction smaller aswell but the whole place had a homey feel to it, I could see us spending lots of time in here. I walked back over to my room leaving the boys to sort out their stuff and found Alice sitting at the kitchen table with two star bucks coffees
"I could live here" she sighed looking round
"You do live here now" I smiled grabbing my cup
"So you excited about starting your new life here?" she asked eagerly
"Yeah I have to go get my books tomorrow and find a job sometime soon. And I also met Jessica's evil bitchier twin"
"Do tell do tell" she said, her eyes wide
"Blonde, tall, pretty, but kinda stupid" I said thoughtfully "Oh and desperate for Edward" I added nonchalantly.
"Yeah, but Edward wants you" she said trying to reassure me. She must have seen the speck of worry in my eyes.
"Yeah and he made a point of telling her when she asked if he was single" I added feeling slightly better about myself
"Trust me, the way Edward had fucked up before, he ain't ever gonna do it again" she nodded.
Alice always had a way of making me feel better about myself, she had been doing it in abundance over the summer with my constant confusion about where our relationship was and when should I take the next step, I think in some ways it made us closer, almost like sisters. Only their was one person missing I thought sighing.
"I miss them too" Alice said rubbing my arm gently.
It had been two weeks since we had said goodbye to Emmett and Rosalie at their airport before they boarded a fight to New York and then to Italy. It consoled me to know they would be back in a few months for Christmas but I felt empty without Emmet's big brotherlyness and Rose's love and closeness. I felt like the group had been split in two.
"Don't worry Rose will call later and tell us she is having a fabulous time" Alice nodded
"And this you're sure of?" I said arching an eyebrow
"When have I ever been wrong" she laughed standing up "I'm going to sort out my room" she added wandering to her room.
Agreeing with her logic I hoped off my seat and wandered into my room. Looking round the stacks of boxes and bags I had no clue where to start, I opened the box labelled books and began taking out all my favourites and piling them on my bookshelf along with all the DVD's that had managed to wander into that box. I put my new laptop on the desk and grudgingly pulled out the printer which Edward bought me after mine mysteriously died several days into the summer. I walked back into the living area and grabbed my stupidly tiny TV/DVD combo and put it down on the table next to my laptop. I began rifling through my bags and suitcases trying to organise my clothes and found the box labels shoes and began placing them neatly in the closet. Once I had all my clothes organised in my closer and drawers I began sorting out my bed stuff, I made my bed, putting my stupidly soft and cosy purple duvet on.
I took all my photos that I had taken over the summer into something of a montage in a large frame, just something to remind me of all the good times we had before we all did our separate things. I put the picture on the same shelf as my books and took out some other photos and placed them on my notice board which was hanging above my laptop table. Lastly I took out a picture of me and Edward taken at the beginning of summer, Alice had taken it when we came to New York for the weekend to have a look around for student digs, we were in central park and we just looked so happy. I couldn't wait to make more memories like those. I shoved all the things I wasn't going to need under the bed and sat down admiring my new home, I lay back closing my eyes basking in the niceness when there was a light tap on my door
"Hey stranger" I said not even opening my eyes
"So I'm a stranger now" He said slowly walking into my room, I head a small click as the door closed
"I haven't seen you for at least an hour. That constitutes being a stranger" I replied still not looking up but my breathing quickened waiting for him to make his way over to me
"Well if I'm a stranger I should try and get you to remember me" he whispered as I felt the bed shift as he lay down next to me
"Still not remembering" I replied sighing, I felt him hovering over me, his lips gently connected with my own and I felt that spark I was so accustomed to now.
"Anything?" he asked softly, I could her the lust in his voice
"Nope sorry, I muttered licking my lips
"Bella" he whispered kissing my earlobe and I let out a small whimper
"I'm guessing you remember now" I could hear the cockiness in his voice
"Maybe" I said opening my eyes and smirking at him
His cocky smirk vanished as he leant down to meet my lips with his own again, this time more forceful, his tongue was begging for entrance to my mouth which I happily obliged, I let out a gentle sigh and felt him smile into the kiss. His hands worked their way slowly from my hair down over my hips to rest on my thigh. I gently bit his lip causing a small whimper to escape his mouth
"You're gonna pay for that one" he said voice thick with lust, he dove back down to kiss me again only this time it was more forceful, rough and passionate and to be honest I was loving every fucking second, his fingers moved back up and began dancing around the top of my jeans, his long fingers popped the button and gently skimmed across my skin
"Please" I muttered into his mouth
"Please what?" he said smirking
"Lower" I said into the kiss
"Lower like this" he said pushing his fingers down until they rested just below my underwear
"Stop fucking teasing me or you know you'll regret it" I threatened. Pushing his fingers down, he gave me a lust filled smiled and pushed his fingers further down, his fingers gently skimmed across my sensitive skin making my breath hitch each time. Without warning he pushed a finger inside me and I let out a guttural moan which he tried to muffle by kissing me. No words were escaping my mouth only small whimpers and I was desperately clawing at his hand for more-
When there was a loud bang on my fucking door, we both stopped and looked over at the door as if it were an intruder and heard another loud rap on the door
"Bella, Edward I want to talk to you" Alice's voice came from the other side
"Bit busy" I shouted back urging him to carry on
"No now its important" I heard her whine. Edward grudgingly removed his hand and shot up to go to the door
"Fucking annoying interfering cockblocking – Yes Alice" he said as he walked over to the door and opened it while I tried my best to stifle my laugh
"Me and Jasper set up the living room, you're welcome" she said to the both of us rolling her eyes "And we were planning on ordering some food and watching a movie, you in? I got menus for takeaway places when I went for coffee earlier" she asked hopefully
"Do we have a choice really?" Edward asked leaning against my door, his shirt had rode up slightly showing off his gorgeous hip bones and I had to stop myself from going over there and licking them.
"Nope" she said still smiling
"Fine" he muttered, obviously annoyed
"Ill give Bella a few minutes, Y'know to sort out her jeans" she said giggling, I looked down at my unbuttoned jeans and felt my self begin blushing furiously. Alice let out another small giggle and ran back into the living area. Edward slammed my door with a little more force than necessary and lay back down on the bed facing me
"I missed this" he muttered touching his nose to my own
"I know, everything is just a little crazy right now, plus I don't think she is gonna give us much alone time tonight" I sighed "I will get alone time with you soon though ill make sure of it"
"You want to gout for diner tomorrow maybe?" he asked covering his face with my pillow so all I could see was his eyes
"Edward Cullen are you asking me out on a date?" I asked, a grin breaking out on my face
"Maybe, your kinda pretty, just one date, we'll see where it goes" he said shyly, his eyes wide.
"I have a boyfriend Y'know, he might not be happy" I shrugged
"One date and ill leave you alone" he said again, his eyes were pleading
"I suppose one date isn't going to hurt, just make sure my boyfriend doesn't find out" I giggled. I was things like this that I loved about Edward, I loved how we could be so random and stupid with each other but still keep the relationship strong.
"Ill kick his ass if he gives you any crap about me" he nodded working his way down my tummy and buttoning my jeans for me before placing a small kiss on my stomach. I let out a gentle sigh when he pulled me up and kissed me and we walked out into the living room to join Alice and Jasper, who coincidentally were curled around each other making out
"Hey no none of that! First off it makes me feel sick, second if we're not allowed neither are you" Edward said becoming the proper brother and sitting in between them to keep them apart, I stood in the kitchen watching this unfold into a verbal battle between the siblings, five minutes into it Jasper looked to have given up and came to join me in the kitchen.
"Want a drink?" I asked smiling
"Hell yes, if I have to hear them screaming at each other anymore I'm gonna rip my hair out" he muttered as I handed him a beer
"Please don't, your hair is pretty" I said pulling a chunk
"Hey hey don't touch the do" he laughed swatting my hand away as I laughed at him "So you glad to be here?" he asked taking a sip from his bottle, I nodded feverishly
"I'm so happy to be away from all the drama back home" I sighed "The last few months have been so crazy I'm looking forward to new things, plus I get to go book shopping tomorrow" I said excitedly
"Some things never change eh?" he smiled wrapping his arm round me for a hug
"Okay twins!"I shouted "We are going to order food now, so you can sit there and argue about how much you're cockblocking each other but you will have no food" I shrugged "So if you want to eat tonight you will make up now" I almost didn't recognise the authority in my voice but it must have worked as they both started mumbling apologies and sat down on opposite sides of the sofa
"Damn Bella I can tell who wears the pants in your relationship now" jasper laughed as I heard a sharp 'fuck you' come from the living room.
I smiled to myself as I looked at my friends, no my family, interact with each other and realised that this move here was gonna be the start of bigger and better things for us all.
There ya go, the start of new things and trust me LOTS of new things are going to occur.
I promise lots and lots of lemons in future chapter (You won't have to wait long)
How was that to start things off?
Reviewers get to lick Edwards hipbones!
