Bella

I couldn't believe I asked him how far he lived from the bar. And by the apparent look of shock on his face, neither could he. Maybe he thought I was just calling his bluff. Or maybe I was being too forward. At the risk of being further rejected by this beautiful, intelligent, funny, arrogant and obnoxious man that I dreamed about almost nightly, I slowly lifted my right hand and placed it on top of his. He cleared his throat.

"Are you serious?" he asked hoarsely.

"Are you?" I challenged. My voice was shaky but I hoped I sounded confident. The truth was a part of me wished he would say he was only joking.

"Very." He stood and shrugged back in to his suit jacket. He looked at me like he wanted to throw me over his shoulders and take me off to a cave somewhere and ravish me. And that thought alone sent shivers of anticipation down my spine.

"I live about eight blocks from here." He helped me down from my bar stool.

He guided me out of the bar with his hand on the small of my back. He hailed a cab and we sat in silence as the cab made its way down the street. My heart rate began to accelerate when several short minutes later he helped me out of the cab in front of his building. He grabbed my hand after he paid the driver.

"Hello, Mr. Cullen," the doorman called as he held the door open for us. We entered the lobby hand in hand. "Shall I call the elevator?" the doorman wanted to know.

"Um, no thanks Benjamin, we're going sit here for a minute," he replied.

Wait. What? I frowned and looked at him as he pulled me to the other side of the lobby. Suddenly I noticed how nice and extravagant his apartment building appeared. Marble floors held big plush cream-colored couches and there was ornate artwork adorning the walls and a huge chandelier that looked like a cluster of diamonds hung from the high ceiling. It reminded me of the lobby in a boutique hotel.

"Bella," he called snapping me out of my daze as he motioned for me to have a seat on the couch next to him.

"What's the problem?" I asked annoyed. I had mustered up enough courage to actually come to his apartment with him and he wanted to waste time talking?

"There is no problem. I just want you to be sure. I don't want you to have any regrets," he said sincerely.

I gave him my sweetest smile. "Regrets about kissing you?"

He laughed. "You and I both know if we go upstairs we will end up doing much more than kissing," he said, his tone serious.

I figured as much but I didn't want to think about it. Of course I would have regrets. Not because of him but because I just wasn't that woman. The woman who could have a fling and think nothing of it. I was certain that if I went through with this some part of my heart would be left in his apartment. Alice, my best friend, chastised me all the time telling me that's why I would never get over Jacob, my ex, because I let my heart get too involved. When I first mentioned Edward to her five months ago she told me I should seduce him and get Jacob out of my system for once and for all. The only problem with that plan is I actually liked Edward. And he wasn't helping my love 'em and leave 'em strategy by being so damned sensitive.

I leaned in close to him. "Well, then why are we wasting time down here?" I breathed in his ear and earned a shudder from him in the process.

He pulled me roughly from the couch and headed towards the elevator. He stared at me the entire time the elevator made its ascent to the 8th floor. He was totally undressing me with his eyes and by the time we reached his door, my entire body was on fire. There was no turning back now even if I wanted to and I didn't want to.

He stalled at his door with his hand on the knob. He turned and grabbed me around the waist and pulled me close to him. I could feel his erection pressed against me. I took in a lung full of air.

"At any time you want me to stop-," he started but before he could finish I crashed my lips into his and kissed him fiercely.

"Open the damn door," I hissed at him. I couldn't believe I was being so brazen.

He smiled widely and opened the door. Once we were on the other side of the door I vaguely noticed how beautiful his apartment was decorated and the floor to ceiling windows at the back of what I assumed was his living room. But before I could fully appreciate or compliment the decor he pressed my back against the door and kissed me. He started out with a gentle, chaste peck on the lips but then he sucked on my bottom lip causing me to moan. He took advantage of my open mouth and our tongues were introduced to each other. They danced in unison combining the different flavors of Vodka we'd recently consumed.

"Fuck," he cursed as we broke a part to catch our respective breath.

"Yes, please," I teased as a response to his curse.

He smiled widely. "Whatever the lady wants." He picked me up and threw me over his shoulder and carried me to what I assumed was his bedroom. Perhaps my caveman fantasy would come true after all.

I kicked off my shoes as he laid me down on a massive bed in the middle of the room. He hovered over me and kissed me again. He had taken off his jacket and I started to unbutton his shirt. Before I reached the last button he stopped kissing me and rested his forehead against mine.

"Shit," he mumbled. This time his tone was one of regret. If he tried to pull some gentleman move and say we were rushing into things, I was certain that I would kill him. I'd sexually assault him first and then kill him.

"What's wrong?" I asked as I tried to control my breathing and my temper.

He looked at me and winced. "I don't have any condoms,"

I smiled widely and pushed his chest so that I could slide from underneath him. There was a reason Alice was my best friend!

Edward

What kind of idiot am I? I finally get the chance to be alone with a woman that I've been fantasizing about for five months and we both decide to give in to our sexual desires, hell, she asked to come to my apartment! I damn near sucked her face off at my front door, carried her to my bedroom with the sole intention of ravishing her body and I didn't have any condoms! Seriously. Fucking idiot!

I almost didn't stop. It felt so good to finally have her in my arms. Her body was so soft and her hair smelled like strawberries and her lips- okay this was not helping my situation at all. Once a little blood started to flow back to my brain, I fell back on he bed and threw my arms up over my head. Where the hell could she have gone? I told her I didn't have any condoms; she smiled maniacally and ran out of the room.

I started to panic and thought maybe she'd left. Just as I was about to call her name I heard her footfalls against the bamboo floor. Less than three seconds later I felt something hit my stomach. I looked up at her and she was grinning from ear to ear, when I looked down a strip of gold foil packages littered my stomach, at least twelve. I looked back at her with a raised eyebrow. Part of me was excited as hell that my plans for sex were back on but another part of me was concerned that she carried a week's supply of condoms in her purse.

She laughed. "My best friend, Alice was hoping I would have a reason to use these some day," she admitted.

"Remind me to send her a thank you card," I plastered a grin on my face, sat up and pulled her to me. She straddled me as I sat on the edge of the bed. We resumed our frenetic kissing but suddenly there were way too many clothes in the way.

"Take this off," I said in between kisses. I made quick work of the buttons on her shirt as she arched her back and shrugged her shoulders allowing it to slide to the floor. Underneath she wore a sexy, black lace bra with a small red bow in the center. It was a hot piece of lingerie but I was more interested in what was underneath.

"This too," I kissed her neck as my hands made their way to her back to unhook the material.

She pressed both hands against my chest.

"Your turn."

I smirked at her and complied by pulling my partially buttoned dress shirt and undershirt over my head in one quick motion. Her eyes appraised my upper body before her lips parted and she began to pant. Her fingers ghosted over my chest and abdomen as she bit down on her bottom lip and murmured ever so softly, "Beautiful,"

When her eyes met mine I could tell her ogling embarrassed her. I smiled and said, "I bet you look much better,"

She rolled her eyes and laughed as she reached around to undo her bra. I stared unabashedly as I waited for her breasts to make their appearance. Trust me when I say they didn't disappoint. Once the confining material was removed two of the most beautiful breasts I've ever seen bounced free. They were more than a handful and they stood at attention as if they were saluting me. I looked back up and into her eyes.

"Just as I suspected- exquisite," I remarked as I raised a hand and kneaded one of the beauties with my palm.

Her eyes closed as she threw her head back and her body went limp. I quickly used my free hand to catch her before she fell off my lap. I scooted back on the bed with her still attached to my waist. Once I was certain she was safe from falling I brought my other hand to her other breast and went to work on that one as well. Her nipples hardened even more at my touch and she arched her back to press herself further into my hands. Her head was still thrown back and she started to moan.

"Bella," I whispered her name.

She lowered her head and her eyes only opened halfway. Her breathing was erratic and I could tell by the look on her face she was in a lust filled haze. I smiled, intent on joining her as I brought my lips to hers gently sucking her bottom lip eliciting another moan which caused me to capture her mouth fully. I slid my tongue inside as her lips parted. She sucked ever so slightly on my tongue as it invaded her mouth again and I felt my dick straining to break through my pants. Apparently she felt it too because she began to grind her hips against me. I had to take control of this situation otherwise it would be over before it started.

I flipped her on her back and continued my assault of her mouth and breasts. This was a much better vantage point. I hesitantly left her luscious mouth and trailed kisses down her neck, past her collarbone. When I made it to her breast I removed my hand and replaced it with my eager mouth. She arched her back and nearly came up off the bed as she moaned my name. I smiled against her breast.

"Stop teasing me," she managed to say.

I laughed. "I have no idea what you're talking about," I said as my tongue darted out and licked her nipple. Not satisfied I took the nipple in my mouth and thought how lucky her child would be if it were breast-fed. She writhed beneath me and babbled incoherently.

I took turns and lavished attention on each breast as her hands came up to grab my head and fist in my hair. She moaned my name over and over pleading with me to give her "more." I ignored her pleas and began to taunt her.

"What do you want?" I asked in between my ministrations.

"More- in- you-side-gonna- don't wanna- can't-," she moaned helplessly.

"I don't think I caught that," I teased.

Her hips bucked wildly and she cried out, "Edward. . . .please,"

I almost lost it and ripped our pants off and plunged deep inside of her at that moment. But I wanted to take my time with her. I wanted to make this the most multi-orgasmic experience of her life. I was hell bent on erasing the memories of any other man from her mind and replacing them with visions of me doing things to her that I'm almost certain never even occurred to those other losers.

"You want to cum Bella?" I asked her.

"Yes!" she yelled.

"Then do it. Cum for me," I said pinching her nipples.

"But I- what I-," she struggled.

I continued with my hands as I bought my mouth back to her face. Her eyes were closed.

"Open your eyes," I said softly.

She shook her head, no.

I gently kissed her lips and ran my tongue along her jaw line.

"Open. Your. Eyes," I said with bit more authority.

She looked at me and whimpered.

"It's okay, let it go. We've got all night." I kissed her deeply while pulling at both her nipples and she shrieked in my mouth as she convulsed beneath me.

Orgasm one was official. Now it was time to get serious.
