Hi there! I've done a few stories on here, but I decided to a completely new one! Hope you like it!


It was late and I was typing fast on the computer at work. I was a journalist. I studied English at University of Washington and once I had graduated, I had decided to move to New York (much to my father and mother's disappointment) where I had managed to get a journalist job for the New York Times. I had now been working here for a little over 4 years and enjoyed every second of it. I had met my best friend Alice Whitlock here. She was a tiny little thing. Only standing 5ft tall, while her husband Jasper, a Teacher stood at over 6 foot. She worked with the fashion page of the paper and she even has her own fashion company.

So, Alice has also become my personal fashion designer. Telling me what to wear and buy. Sometimes getting hysterical if I would wear something to work that didn't match. I remember one day last week when I met up with her for coffee.

"Bella, you can't wear that!" She almost screeched.

I looked down, I was wearing a simple pencil black skirt and a white blouse, I also had tights and small flats on.

"What's wrong with it?"

"You're wearing flats and tights!" She moaned, like she was disgusted at the thought.

I had to shush Alice as people were looking at us.

"Alice! You know I can't wear heels" I Whispered. The last time Alice put me in heels I almost broke my ankle.

"But it makes you so much taller Bella! Your legs are to die for Girl!" She managed to half whisper and half squeak. She failed to be quiet and now we had the whole cafe staring at us, like we were some mad women. I ignored them.

I couldn't help but laugh at her. I wasn't much taller than Alice, standing at about 5ft 4.

Alice made me wear sometimes, skimpy clothing (what I call it!) when we went out at night.

"Now, go try snag a guy!" pushing me into a bar, with her little body.

But I was shy in the relationship bit. I was crap at the flirting, that Alice told me to do.

So I had not many relationships since I moved here, my longest was for a month. Some guy called Mike. He was too clingy. I hadn't had sex for about 4 years. (Yes 4 years!) My last being my best friend Jacob. We were young and had drunk too much and one thing led to another. 4 years on, he's now in a long term relationship with a guy called Seth. We're still friends.

So here I was, 27 (almost 28!) years old and still single.

I was just about to finish my article for the day, when I heard someone come into the room. I looked up. It was Edward. Edward was quite new here, only being here for about 6 months. He was originally from Chicago and is 29. We had a few numerous chats about work, and he sometimes would re-fill my coffee if he was up. I would also do the same.

Edward reminded me a lot like Clark Kent. He was tall, standing between 6.3-6.4ft, and wore black framed glasses. I had once seen him bend down and saw star wars boxers poke out. I was glad that he didn't see me check him out.

I was still watching Edward, but when he looked up at me, he blushed.

"Hi" he spoke quietly.

I smiled and gave a little wave.

He was walking towards his desk (which was opposite mine) but before he reached it he tripped over a box that was sticking out from under a desk.

The paper that he was holding flew out of his hands, scattering over the floor. He landed on the floor with an 'oomph'

A few people that were still working snorted with laughter.

I rushed up from my seat, and got to his side.

Edward who was bright red started picking up the scattered papers on the floor.

"You ok Edward?"

Edward looked up at me. I only just noticed the colour of his eyes. They were Emerald green.

"Yeaa-h" he stuttered. He looked so embarrassed.

I helped him pick up the rest of the papers and handed them to him.

"Thanks Bella" he stood up and looked down at me.

Wow he was very tall!

"I'm so clumsy" he chuckled, rubbing the back of his head nervously.

"Join the Club" I smiled.

Last week I was just about to sit down in my chair, but I forgot that I pushed it further back than I anticipated and I landed on the floor right on my ass.

I still had the bruise.

"So are you finished for today?" I asked.

"Yep" He chucked the pieces of paper that he was holding on his desk, they flew messily and landed scattered on his computer keyboard.

He gave a shrug at the mess, and bent down to pick up his bag. He looked back to me with a smile.

"Are you done?"

I nodded and went back to my desk shutting down my computer. I had done what I could for today and I was now ready for the weekend ahead. I glanced at my watch, it read 8.11pm. I had now been at work for over 12 hours! I grabbed my coat from the back of the chair and looked up. Edward was still there. He noticed me and blushed.

He coughed.

"Would you like to go out for drink?"

He gave a smile that became more like a crooked grin.

I couldn't say no to that smile.

I met his eyes and nodded.

"Sure!" I grinned back at him and put on my coat.

"Great!" he smiled widely.

We found a little bar about 10 minutes down the road, it was quite busy but we managed to find a table for two. Edward was carrying the drinks by my command as I knew I probably drop them. I took a gulp of my white wine that I had got and sighed in relief.

Just what I needed.

Edward smiled at me as he drunk out of his cider bottle.

"So, you got anything planned for this weekend?"

I shook my head.

"Nope. Lazy weekend ahead for me" I laughed, embarrassed by my boring life.

Edward chuckled.

"Well that's not too bad. I'll probably be doing the same"

"Not visiting family?"

"Nope. They are still in Chicago."

"Oh. Mine are in Washington" I tried a visit them as often as I could. Christmases was mostly spent with them.

I took a sip again and changed the subject.

"So, are you enjoying it here so far?"

"I am now" he smiled and held up to his drink to toast me. I blushed.

I coughed trying to get rid of my blush and took one more sip of my wine.

"I've been here for just over 4 years and it's been the best choice I did"

I tried not to turn any redder by staring into his eyes. I never felt this way before.

"You got offered somewhere else then?"

"Yeah, Seattle and Chicago funnily enough!" I laughed. I finished the rest of my wine with another gulp.

"Wow"

"Yep" I grinned.

After about 3 hours of talking and 2 bottles of wine, we headed out of the bar.

I found out that Edward had a sister and she was married with children. His father was a Doctor and his mother an architecture.

I felt rather wobbly after the drinks I had and held on to Edward's arm to keep me steady.

"You aright?" he asked and he took my hand.

"Yup" I giggled. I was defiantly tipsy.

I blushed down at our hands. His big hand engulfed mine and was incredibly warm.

"So..." he started to say. But stopped.

"So..?" I repeated.

Edward chuckled nervously.

"So do you want to come back to mine or something?" he managed to say.

I looked up, his face was slightly red. I thought I was the only person that got that red!

I grinned at him and leaned up to kiss his chin as that was all I could reach.

"I would love to"

"Cool" he grinned goofily.

"I've had a lovely evening" I smiled as I swung our entwined hands back and forth.

I felt Edward squeeze my hand.

"I did too Bella. Very much."

I was the one to turn red this time and smiled. We didn't speak again, but I could see Edward sneaking glances at me.

We arrived outside a slightly worn down but nice apartment block.

"It's not much" he said. He must of have seen me look it up and down.

"Shush. It's nice" I laughed.

He smiled and pulled me through the front door. Entering the lift he pressed the 3rd floor button. I leaned onto his arm and sighed softly.

I felt his arm around my waist and I giggled.

I looked up at him and smiled brightly. He smiled back, he's eyes shone behind his glasses. I couldn't believe I hadn't notice them before, they were so bright.

I couldn't resist it any longer, so I stood up on my tiptoes and kissed him.

I felt him froze against me, at first I thought I had done the wrong thing, I began to pull away to apologize when he felt him relax and kiss me back.

We kissed passionately and I heard the Ping of the doors opening of the lift. He stepped backwards pulling me with him. I almost tripped over my feet, but he steadied me. I giggled against him and I felt him pull me close to him, his arms across my waist.

I felt a smile against my lips and I stood up on my toes to put my arms around his neck. He lifted me slightly so I could reach probably. We broke the kiss and I buried my face into his neck. I heard a door opening and we tumbled into his flat and Edward kicked the door closed with his foot. It was dark, but we managed to get to his bedroom without tripping over anything.

We landed on his bed with an 'oomph' and I ended up on top. I looked down at him, an amused smile was on his face. I smirked back and wiggled in his lap. He groaned and I felt his arousal.

"B-Bella..." He moaned.

"Edward" I mumbled back and began to undo his shirt. His chest was surprising muscular and apart from the trail of brownish hair that came from under his trousers to his chest, he was quite hairless.

More of our clothes came off and he turned us over he was on top. We kissed deeply and I pulled the covers over us. I laughed when Edward started to peck kisses all over my face. I was ticklish, but soon I felt him press against me and my laughs turned to moans as I was getting aroused. It had been too long.

"Please" I begged.

He pressed more into me, he was hard and from the feel of it. Big.

He smirked and began kissing my neck, I felt his glasses against my skin. They were cold. I felt him nibble my neck. That will leave a mark I thought. Not that I minded.

He pulled away to look into my eyes.

I nodded. I wanted it so much.

Without any hesitation, he pushed inside me and we both moaned.

"God." I heard him mumble.

"To long..." He continued.

"Yes-s" I agreed. I moved my hands to his hair. It was soft to touch. I grabbed on to it, pulling slightly.

He began to move slowly and my legs instantly wrapped around him.

There was a little pain as it been so long and he was bigger than I had before, but I put it to the side as he stayed at a slow pace.

But, slowly the pace grew faster and I gasped. I grabbed onto his back where I felt light perspiration. I looked up at him and he caught my eyes. He glasses had slipped down his nose. I could help but laugh and lifted my hand to push them up only to have them slip down his nose again.

He began to laugh too, but he ignored them to begin kissing my face as his continued to move.

Our pace increased faster and I clutched hold of him tight.

"Bella" he moaned against me. He had moved his face into my neck again. I felt him release inside me and he went still. We were both breathing heavily.

He stayed in my neck and his hot breath tickled me.

"Edward-dd..." I giggled.

"Mmm" he mumbled and he brushed his nose against my neck. I felt his glasses dig in.

I giggled almost snorting when I felt wetness on my neck.

I managed to pull him off my neck.

"Did you just lick me?"

I saw red appear on his cheeks.

"I believe I did. You tasted good."

"You're weird." I laughed.

He grinned and looked into my eyes.

I looked back.

For the next few minutes, we didn't say a word to each other. He just lay on top of me still inside me.

Edward finally moved and his hand reached to stroke my cheek.

He spoke quietly.

"I've wanted to kiss you for a long time you know"

My mouth flew open.

"Really? But you hardly came up to me and talked!"

He blushed and looked down.

"I was to of a chicken" he mumbled.

I giggled, but stopped when I saw his face.

"Hey" I pulled his face up with my hands and made him look at me.

"I've wanted to talk to you. For a long time too actually."

He eyes twinkled.

"Ever since I saw your star wars boxers when you bent down" I teased

"Oh no!" he groaned.

"You saw those?"

"I thought they were hot"

"Hmm. Were you looking at my ass or the boxers?" he smirked.

That made me laughs.

"Well your ass was kinda hot too" I smiled.

I squeaked when I felt Edward pinch my side.

"Kinda? What do you mean kinda Hot? I think my ass is more than kinda hot!"

"You sure about that?" I smiled, playing along.

"Mmm. I'm sure. Much hotter than yours in fact" He said looking smug.

"Har Har" I said poking out my tongue.

"You know it's true" he smirked.

"Shutup!" I said smacking him.

Edward just laughed and pecked me on the nose.

"I think your ass is gorgeous. Do you mind me seeing it?" he whispered.

"Maybe later" I teased.

"Fine" he said with a sad face.

I poked him in the sides and he squeaked like me which made me laugh.

He laughed with me.

"Can you get of me now you big lump?"

He smiled and kissed my cheek.

"Sorry m'dear"

Edward finally got of me and lay by the side of me on his bed, I immediately snuggled up close to him, taking in his warmth. With him being so tall I felt tiny against him.

Like he read my mind he whispered.

"You're so small" and he wrapped his arms around my body.

"You're just really lanky" I laughed poking him.

"I'm not Lanky, Thanks very much. I just tall!" mocked Edward in my ear.

"Yeah, so you're lanky!"

He pouted.

I chuckled.

"So how tall are you?" I smiled casually playing with his hair.

Edward gave a frown. I had seen it before on him when he was working at his desk. It's the face he makes when he's thinking.

"Erm. About 6 foot and 3 1/2 inches."

"Hmm, Very specific" I laughed.

"I'm a nerd remember" Once more poking me in the sides making me squeak. I glared at him and he smiled like a kid.

I poked out my tongue again.

"More like a sexy nerd" I teased.

"I'm a sexy nerd am I?" he teased back and tickled me.

"Yes my Sexy nerd" I giggled and moved onto my back so Edward was staring down at me.

He looked into my eyes and smiled.

"Hmm. I'm your sexy nerd? That sounds quite nice"

"It does" I agreed, my eyes locked with his.

"Can I be your sexy nerd?" he whispered stroking my cheek.

"Yes" I whispered, closing my eyes savouring his touch.

"I would love to be your sexy nerd"

I felt kisses on my face.

"Good" I smiled and I opened my eyes once more, to find his green eyes staring back at me.

"Be my girlfriend Bella?"

His big hands cupped my face and I smiled while nodding.

He grinned, kissing me and once more we got lost under the bed covers.
