He is sensible and so incredible
And all my single friends are jealous.
He says everything I need to hear
And it's like I couldn't ask for anything better.
The way I love you
I was sitting on the beige love seat in mine and Jake's apartment, looking around the room. The walls were a bright orange from the previous occupiers of the flat, I found it pretty tacky but Jake said he'd get around to painting it soon enough. He never did. It had been several months since we moved in together, and right now he was in the office, working. I'm fine with this, we need money some how. I mean, I have a job as a journalist, writing columns in newspapers, but it's not exactly making us rich. I continued to scan the room; it was pretty much small and cramped. The colours clashed and most of the furniture was junk. Some scattered tables and chairs, the basic TV, a laptop. It wasn't a big room, kind of dusty too. The bedroom was just a double bed and a lamp. And then there was the bathroom and kitchen. Plain.
I decided it was time someone cleaned it so I pushed myself up and wondered up to the storage cabinet and got out a duster and spray. I began to clean and dust, what a joyful day this is turning out to be. After about an hour I got myself a can of coke and took my place back on the love seat, admiring my work. It looked better, no more dust and more organised. As if on cue, my husband opened the door.
"Honey I'm—whoa, what happened here?" I turned my head round to him and gave him a toothy grin.
"I cleaned up, you like?" I asked pouting slightly at the end, trying and probably failing to look cute. He started to walk forward and plopped himself on the other half of the sofa putting his arm around my shoulder and pulling me into his.
He kissed my hair and said "Of course I do, but I like something else a lot more," I giggled at his cheesy line and tilted my head up to kiss him on the lips. He eagerly responded and I twisted myself on the sofa, never breaking the kiss, to get myself more comfy, only to realise I was straddling him.
I immediately blushed, typical me. He knotted his fingers in my hair, and used his other hand to pull me closer by my waist. He glided his tongue across mine, asking for permission and I opened and moaned into his mouth. We both jumped when someone knocked on the door. "Crap" I breathed as I trudged to the door, I could hear him chuckling behind me. They better have a good reason. I opened the door and a fairy strolled in.
"Hey Bells, what's up with your hair? Has someone been naughty?" She asked, obviously referring to my now messed up hair, she seemed oblivious to the fact Jacob was sitting on the sofa, smirking.
"Oh this? Just a new style I'm trying out" I said sarcastically following her into the kitchen, patting Jacob on the head as I walked passed the sofa. Alice stopped in her tracks and spun around and stared intently at it.
"Hmm, well it's not working." She paused for a second and suddenly her eyes widened in shock "OH MY GOSH! Someone was here! Where is he? I can't believe you would cheat on Jake, Bella!"
"Jesus Alice" I said as I walked towards the sofa and sat next to Jake, snuggling into his side "I don't know how you missed him, y'know, with his size." Jake gently flicked me arm and Alice's eyes filled with embarrassment and recognition.
"Oh! I'm so sorry Bella!" She pleaded. Jake just faked anger and said "Yeah, you should be, you ruined my 'Bella time'" and glowered at her. I chuckled and sunk more into his side. Alice got over her embarrassment and smiled.
"Aww, so cute!" She walked over and sat in between us, and I glared at her. I was now squished between an armrest, a pixie/girl and a muscle man on a love seat. "So, what shall we do tonight?" she asked, as if nothing were wrong.
I just harrumphed, stood up and made my way to the kitchen. "Actually I was about to start tea." I could Jacobs's presence behind me as I raided the fridge. He leaned over my shoulder and whispered in my ear seductively "so is 'tea' my new nickname?" [A/N FRIENDS!] I giggled and stood up straight, and walked to the counter.
"Are you sure that's the only thing you were gonna do?" she asked suspiciously, obviously sensing my lie.
"Yes" I answered in monotone.
"Right" She replied with a click of her tongue. Obviously seeing no point in arguing as she knew she was right.
"Anyway, you never told us why you ruined my 'Bella Time'" Jake said hopping onto the counter.
"Oh, I just wanted to say I saw an add for a great house!" she squealed. I glared at the pasta in front of me. That was it?
"That's it?" I asked astounded. She nodded perkily. I just grunted and carried on with the pasta sauce.
"Go on" Jake encouraged. He'd been looking for a proper house for a month now, trying to get out of this crap heap. I'd never spoken or met our Estate Agent, Jake did all that. The dude obviously did a good job, always finding us houses, but then someone normally paid more for it so we never got it.
"Well its average size, three bedrooms, 2 bathrooms. A modern kitchen and a beautiful garden, all in your budget!" She said, obviously proud of herself. "And you know the best bit?" she asked, not giving us a chance to answer "It's down my road!" For a girl that can be very annoying, she did a good job. I smiled.
"Thanks Al, is it open to tour?" I asked.
"Sure, I have an idea, LETS GO NOW!" She literally screamed. I looked over at Jake who had excitement in his eyes, strange man.
"Fine, I'll cook when I get back" I moaned. Jake's smile brightened ever more, if it was possible.
"I just need to get my coat, Bells, do me a favour and ring the estate agent and tell him to meet us at the house." [A/N SORRY, I DON'T KNOW IF YOU DO THIS WITH AN ESTATE AGENT, SO JUST GO WITH IT] He asked. I bit my lip; I'd never spoken to him before. It sounded so stupid; I'm just shy and would probably stutter and muck it up.
Suck it up Bella.
Alice followed Jacob into his room to find his coat, probably making sure it was fashionable enough for him to be seen with her. I picked up the phone and dialled the number Jake had on the counter under the name 'Edward'. Old-fashioned name, probably an old man. It rang 3 times before someone picked up.
"Hello?" A beautiful, velvety voice rang through the phone. I internally smiled. Definitely not old. I would say in his 20's. Hey, I'm 21!
Stop it Bella, your married!
'Edward' cleared his throat from across the line and I came back to reality.
"Oh, h-hey. This is Bella; I don't know if Jacob told you about me, I'm Bella, his wife?" It came out more as a question. The line stayed silent, after about 5 seconds I edged him a bit more "You know, your client, Jacob Black? Bella Black? Ring any bells at all? You're trying to find us a house?"
"Right, yeah." His honey like voice said again, but it was blunt. Well this man seems lovely. Note the sarcasm.
"Yeaah" I drew out awkwardly "he just told me to ring you and say we found a house and if you could meet us there to check it out?"
"'Kay" He said in a bored tone.
Jacob and Alice walked gracefully back into the room, Alice appraising his clothes. He always did have good fashion sense. Jake motioned for me to give him the phone. I handed the phone over.
"Eddie? Ha-ha, take a joke mate. Yeah, that's her, the glorious Bella. So you'll meet us there? Sure Sure." He said with that smile on his face. He was purely beautiful, my sun. Constantly bright and special. He told him the address and hung up. "And off we go," he said wrapping his arm around my waist and lifting me so he was carrying me bridal style. He gave me a chaste kiss on the lips, ignoring my thrashing, and walked out the door, with Alice following behind.
When we were in the elevator he put me down and pulled me against his chest, not letting me go at all. I wrapped my arms around him and rest my heard against his chest, listening intently to his heart beat. So intently I almost missed the ring of the elevator. He picked me up again, this time I didn't thrash and instead clung to him. I know he wouldn't drop me, its just instinct. We walked to Alice's yellow Porsche and sat in the backseat. Alice never let anyone drive her 'baby' as she called it. I curled up against Jacobs welcoming body. I was suddenly cold, I should of changed out of me denim shorts. I closed my eyes and sighed in content, this is heaven.
After a 15 minute drive we arrived at the house, I opened my eyes and checked it out. Looks nice.
Jake pulled me out and help on firmly onto my hand, and lead me to a Silver Volvo. Alice was in front and we followed taking our time. I then spotted the Greek God leant up against this Volvo. When he spotted us he pushed himself upright and walked towards us. I got a closer look at him. He had a strange, unruly copper coloured hair; his eyes were a bright green. He had a small amount of stubble across his perfectly chiselled jaw. He had a tight grey shirt on, showing off his 6-pack and his muscular arms. He wore dark jeans and plain sneakers.
He was gorgeous.He was Edward Masen.
He respects my space
And never makes me wait
And he calls exactly when he says he will.
He's close to my mother
Talks business with my father.
He's charming and endearing
And I'm comfortable.
