This is a Fanfiction I started ages ago and I've decided to revisit it I took it off for, I don't even remember what reason but I think I will start reposting I cannot give you time limits on when to expect them all I can do is promise that I am going to go through each chapter and repost and start actually writing it again. For those New to this Story welcome and I hope you enjoy the read.
BPOV
beep, beep, beep'
My alarm rang shrilly wakening me from a very vivid dream involving me and a green eyed stranger. These dreams had been a regular occurrence for the past few weeks to say they were pleasant would be the understatement of the century. I constantly found myself waking up in a cold sweat.
'beep, beep, beep'
And there's the alarm bringing me back to reality.
I am the captain at the section 7 NYFD and have been for the past 18 months. All the boys down at the station were like my family we all worked together like one. There was my best friend Seth who was like a little brother to me as well as Quill, Embry, Paul, Jared and of course Jake. His dad and my dad had been friends since forever and Jake was like my older brother. A few years ago he had confessed his undying love for me but I didn't love him that way as I said he was more of an older brother, after a few weeks of insisting that I give a relationship with him a go he finally accepted that it wasn't exactly going to happen any time soon and so we have been really close ever since but he does get really possessive of me which can get really annoying.
So on with my day I jumped out of bed and walked to the bathroom.
After a long hot shower I chucked on my NYFD uniform and headed to the kitchen before making some breakfast I checked my phone I had a new text from my best friend Alice making sure I was till all good for tonight. She was making me come along to a group dinner to meet her cousin, she has been trying to set me up for ages with her cousin who had recently moved here from Seattle after getting promoted and sent over here. He had just moved into his new apartment and had invited him out with us tonight. She of course had to drag along her long term partner jasper Whitlock who she recently got engaged to and our friend Rosalie Hale who was with my brother Emmet.
I had known Alice since collage; we met on the first day and immediately hit it off. I introduced her to Jasper and that was it "poof" they haven't been separated since. It was kind of the same deal with Rosalie and Emmett, It took them long enough to get together but once they were together there was no stopping them, so here I am the fifth wheel and now Alice trying to "repay the favour" by setting me up with this guy who's name I could bearly remember. All Alice had told me was that he was apparently really good looking and kind and caring and blah blah blah. I texted my reply and told her I hadn't forgotten and I was so excited to meet him.
Ok I was playing with her a little bit but you know got to make it interesting.
When I got the station it was chaotic there was a big fire at one of the big apartment buildings and I immediately swung into action making sure everyone one was suited up and the necessary equipment was all in order before heading out.
When we arrived we were first on scene and quickly assessed the safety of the site and set up a perimeter while the boys had been getting the hoses ready.
After making sure the building was safe me and Jake headed in to see if there was anybody trapped. We didn't find anyone on the first level and proceeded to the next.
The next level was where the fire had started and the boys had already distinguished the majority of the fire I headed over to a door that was shut and tried to push it open there was still smoke coming from underneath it and I quickly got Jake to get it open for me. When we made it in I found a man about 25 years old lying lifeless on the floor. I made my way cautiously over to him so as not to break through any weakened flooring and put the air mask over his mouth and tried to get some air circulating I checked his pulse he had one but it was very weak.
I called Jake over and got him to carry the man out and over to a paramedic to make sure he was safely taken to hospital.
Once the fire was completely extinguished we headed over to the hospital we were lucky there wasn't very many people in the building at the time and we safely managed to get everybody out. Nobody was critically injured but there were a few who were suffering from varying strains of smoke inhalation.
The first person I went to check on when I got to the hospital was the guy I had saved. I found out from the apartment block owner his name was Edward Masen, I knew I knew the name but nothing was ringing any bells.
When I got to his room he was sitting up in his bed awake and looking a bit confused. He turned at the sound of my entrance and looked at me, immediately my breath caught in my throat the man sitting before me was absolutely gorgeous he had a perfectly chiselled jaw line and high cheekbones and his hair was a strange but hot bronze colour when I was done ogling the hair I finally looked to his eyes, my heart spluttered he had green eyes the green eyes the ones I had been dreaming about. I faintly heard someone clear there throat and I quickly shook myself from my reverie and blushed a deep crimson when I realised it was him and he had caught me ogling him.
He flashed me a heart stopping crooked smile.
"Are you alright there" Oh my God he had the most beautiful voice it was like velvet and I was stunned, this time I pulled myself out of it and composed my features before answering him "Oh yes I'm fine...sorry I just came to see how you were. You were pretty Gorgeous...oh ...um I mean you were pretty badly knocked up when you were taken away" I turned away quickly blushing and even deeper shade of crimson, if it was even possible.
He chuckled and looked up at me through his lashes his beautiful green eye's smouldering "Gorgeous...really" he smirked at me.
I giggled nervously before changing the subject "So do you remember anything from the accident?"
He looked at me with an amused expression on his face "Not really. What exactly happened to me?"he turned serious.
"Oh I'm sorry I didn't realise you...umm you were in a fire and you suffered from smoke inhalation and a minor concussion. I'm the fire fighter who found you" he looked at me confused for a second before his face softened.
"Well then I guess thanks are in order. So, thank you, for saving my life" he smiled crookedly up at me. He seriously has to stop doing that or I'm going to spend the rest of my life beet red.
"I...um well it was no biggie...um...just doing my job you know" I stumbled over my word, if you could die from embarrassment that would be me gone. Edward must of sensed my discomfort and asked if I wanted to sit down before flashing me a the crooked smile again, suddenly my knees were weak and I practically fell into the chair.
He tried to stifle a laugh but it was a lost cause.
"Just get it over with you'll feel a lot better" and he burst out laughing it was quickly halted by a groan of discomfort.
I lunged out of my chair as soon as I heard it but right as I touched his arm this spark shot up my arm and ran through my body I was stunned instantly but quickly composed myself. I quickly let it go to make sure he calmed down so as not to cause himself further discomfort.
I sat back down and was lost in thought 'had he felt it to' It was pretty strong oh it's probably nothing he didn't seem to notice so I won't dwell on it.
I Suddenly realised I hadn't even introduced myself I turned to him once the nurse had left from giving him some more pain medication
"by the way my names Bella, Bella swan"
"Oh I'm Edward, Masen" he reached out his hand and I shook it once again the spark shot through my body I was mentally prepared for it that time and didn't let it show. Obviously he wasn't because he hesitated and his hand lingered on mine a bit longer than was necessary he released my hand quickly when the doctor walked in to tell him he was being released and just had to come and sign some papers before he would be discharged.
Half an hour later I was standing outside with Edward "So Bella I guess I'll be off"
"Where are you going to stay?"I asked him
"Well I just moved here from Seattle but my cousin Alice has an apartment close by so I'll just go stay with her. Umm thank you for all your help Bella really it was much appreciated" he took my hand a brought it to his lips and placed a small kiss on the back of it before turning sharply and into a waiting taxi he was all ready half way down the street before I even realised what had happened.
I headed back to the truck thinking about all that had happened in the past hour I had saved the life of what turned out to be the god of all men, I had had sparks with said god who coincidentally has turned out to be my best friends cousin and I was meant to have dinner with him in, oh would you look at that, 2 hours. When I finally got back to the truck all the boys started hooting and clapping me on the back they had obviously seen the interaction between Edward and myself out the front. I blushed.
"how about you all shut up and get in the truck" they did as I said but they all had stupid grins on their face, all except Jake who was looking at me with narrowed eyes.
"What's up your ass?" I snapped
"try this on for size" he replied "you don't even know that guy and you're already hanging all over him" he finished, that did it I'd had enough of his shit.
"How is it any of your business Jake" I roared "and I wasn't hanging all over him he kissed my hand like a gentlemen and left, it's not like we had our tongues shoved down each other's throats I don't even have his number" Jakes face immediately softened and he stepped forward with his hands raised "Bella I'm sorry that was stupid I shouldn't have acted like that"
"It doesn't matter Jake I am sick of the way you always act whenever I'm around another man I'm not yours to protect. How many times do I have to tell you?"
"I know Bella I'm sorry-"I cut him off
"Save it Jake I've heard the same to many times I think it's time you just back off and we take break from any kind of friendship we have "Jake looked at me I saw a glint of sadness in his eye but that quickly vanished and was replaced instead with a sneer.
"Fine I think I might just walk home then"
"Fine by me Jake" with that he turned and stormed off down the road. I jumped in the truck it was really silent before Seth sighed " well it's about time you told him Bells" and with that they all cheered again the boys never really got along with Jake he was so protective of me that even if they gave me a friendly hug hello he would snap. I smiled and gave Seth a hug before Jared took off back to the station so we could finish up the paper work and go home.
1 hour later
"Yes Alice there were sparks" I sighed trying to hide my blushing face
"OH MY GOD BELLA" she squealed" I just knew you two would be great together...Oh Bella this is wonderful you're going to be part of the family for real...not that I don't already count you family"
"Slow down pixie I just met the guy and I don't even thinks he know who I am yet"
"Of course he does Bella remember he's living with me now. Oh Bella you should have seen him when he got home he started gushing to Jasper about this amazingly beautiful Lady who had saved his life today. Oh Bella I've never seen him so happy"
"Really" I asked timidly "but he's so beautiful and I'm just me, plain old Bella"
"Bella you really don't see yourself clearly do you. You beautiful and worthy of being on anybody's arm...especially Edwards"
"Alice stop it" I fidgeted nervously and played with the hem of the dress Alice had put me in it was beautiful Silk-blend asymmetric dress that hugged all my curves in the right places she had matched it with Red Couture patent leather pumps that made my legs going on forever.
As I stood up and looked in the mirror I had to say Alice had done an amazing job and I looked great if I do say so myself. She had applied some light eye makeup and blood red lipstick to set off the shoes.
"Oh Bella you look great Edward won't be able to keep his hand off you" she cried
Oh I hope not whoa were did that come from of...oh what the hell there's obviously an attraction there so I guess I'm just going to wing it. As we headed out the door and off to the restaurant I grabbed my onyx velvet clutch with my phone and wallet in it.
We were taking Alice's car to the restaurant, a yellow porches v12 turbo it was beautiful. Alice told me Jasper and Edward were already at the restaurant with Rosalie and Emmet.
As we pulled up out front a very expensive looking restaurant I was suddenly filled with confidence and stepped out 'ok time to turn on some Bella charm and flirtation' and with that we set off for the front door with the exited little pixie by my side and all my closest friends inside I'm sure I'll get through this.
Please read and review everyone I want to know what you all think and if it's worth continuing with the fix up and continuation of this story.
