.oO .oO .oO

Edward drove me to his home in a silver Volvo. The whole way there, his hand was in mine, and I couldn't get my mind away from what we were about to do. I was 17 years old, and he was... I don't know. But he was definitely older than 25. The slight little wrinkles in the corners of his mouth were proof of that, but it could just be from the way he smiled.

We arrived at a little apartment complex and we got out of the car. He took my hand and led me up the stairs to one of the many doors. He let me go in first, and then he followed, shutting the door behind us. It wasn't a dump or anything; it was actually pretty nice. A kitchen to the left, the living to the right, a hallway in front with three doors along it...

"Can I get you anything?" Edward asked, his crooked smile appearing again. "Beer? Wine? Champagne?"

I smiled back. "Champagne would be nice."

He disappeared into the kitchen. "Make yourself comfortable, Bella!" he called out.

Again, there went those little sparks again when he said my name. It was almost a reflex reaction; when he said it, my body had to react to it that way. It was just inevitable that his voice was always so perfect, and when my name rolled off his tongue so freely... it sounded so nice. To my ears anyway.

I went into the living room and sat on the long blue couch. It was comfortable, with a little coffee table in front of it. A flat screen TV was hanging on the wall and many different paintings. He came into the room with a bottle of champagne and two glasses. He set them down on the table and then sat down beside me, leaning close and nuzzling his face into my hair.

"You smell very good, Bella." he complimented, pulling away to pour up the drinks.

I blushed and took my glass. We clinked out glasses together like we had at the restaurant and said "cheers" at the same time. Then we both took a sip. Yum.

"So... tell me about yourself." I said, setting my glass back onto the table.

"What do you want to know?" he replied with a smile, putting his glass down as well.

"Do you have a job?" I asked.

He nodded. "I'm an intern at a hospital."

"As a doctor or a nurse?" I questioned.

"A doctor." he chuckled.

"Have any siblings?"

"A brother. That's it."

"Hobbies?"

"Music." he replied with a smile. "Playing the piano being number one."

"Do you.. have a girlfriend?" was my last question.

He laughed again. "Bella, if I had a girlfriend, do you think you would even be in my house right now?"

I smiled.

"Enough about me. Tell me about you." he said with a smile. "Have a job?"

Okay, time for my "back-story". Alice and I had practiced this before-hand. If we went home with or met a guy, we'd have to have a plan set up as to where we worked, how old we were, and other things like that. I was prepared.

"A fashion agency in Seattle." I smiled. "I have an internship there with design."

He nodded. "Have any siblings?" Ok, so he was just going to repeat the same questions I had asked him. I could live with that.

"Nope. I'm an only child."

"Hobbies?"

"Reading." I shrugged. "And falling down, if you'd really call that a hobby. I do it on a day-to-day basis."

"You're clumsy." it wasn't a question; I nodded anyway. He smiled.

"Do you have a boyfriend?" he raised an eyebrow.

"Okay, okay, I realize how stupid that question was." I giggled, punching his shoulder playfully. "I wouldn't be here if I had one."

He took another sip of champagne and a question bubbled to my lips before I could stop it. "How old are you?" I couldn't help myself. I had to know!

"I'm 28." he replied. "You?"

"21." I lied, a bit nervous now that I knew his true age. "I hope that's not too young."

He shook his head. "It's perfect." he murmured, leaning forward to kiss my lips.

I was so shocked that he had just taken the plunge right then and there, but the shock was soon replaced with desire. His lips were so soft and warm, the taste of champagne mixed with Corona on his tongue. I kissed him back hungrily, wrapping my arms around his neck. His hands fell to trace the swells of my breasts, and I pulled away to look at him.

"I'm sorry. Does that make you uncomfortable?" he asked, kissing the corner of my mouth.

"N-no, it's fine. It just took me by surprise." I breathed, running my fingers through his hair. "Are we really going to do this on a couch?"

He chuckled and pulled away, taking my hand. "No, of course not. Come with me to my bed, dear Bella."

I turned red at his words, looking down for a moment.

"You're so adorable." he whispered, kissing my cheek. "Follow me. Let me show you a good time, alright?"

I looked back up, a smile on my face, and nodded. I stood up and followed him down the hall and into his bedroom.

"Please, take a seat." he said, his crooked smile melting my heart. "I need to go get a condom."

The thought of that made my anticipation grow more, and I lay back on the bed as he left the room. I tried to make myself sexy, and I wasn't sure if it worked or not. I messed up my hair and unbuttoned the top buttons on my blue blouse, exposing some cleavage. Well, I tried, right?

Edward came back in the room and I turned to him. He smiled down at me, the condom package in his hand. He walked over to me and set the package down on his dresser so he wouldn't forget to put it on when the time came.

"You look beautiful." he murmured, leaning down to kiss me.

He crawled on top of me through the kiss, pulling at the fabric on my clothes. I pulled at his as well, and soon enough, we were both naked except for our underwear. He unlatched my bra and I realized that this was the first time I had ever gotten this far with a guy. It seemed so... right... with Edward.

"You alright?" he breathed, because my breath had hitched at my realization. "Do you want to stop?"

I shook my head and he smiled, his eyes gazing at my breasts. He pressed his hands to them and squeezed, leaning down to kiss me again.

And you can guess what happened from there.

I awoke in the morning to birds chirping outside the window. I opened my eyes, blinking rapidly against the bright sunlight. It took me a moment to remember where I was, but then it all came rushing back and I smiled. I turned my head, only to see Edward lying there, his eyes closed and his mouth slightly open. Light snores were coming from the back of his throat.

I cuddled in closer to him, and I noticed that his strong arms were wrapped around me, hugging me to him. His naked body pressed up against mine when I leaned in, and I had no problem with it whatsoever. I wrapped my legs around his waist, feeling his "little buddy" beneath the covers. I smiled.

Last night had been amazing. He had been so gentle and careful, holding me tight and whispering things in my ear that had made my orgasm come even sooner. I already had it decided that Edward was the king of dirty talk.

He snored loudly for a moment, leaning closer to me and nuzzling his face in my breasts. I almost laughed, but I didn't want to wake him up, so I held it in.

We lay there for a few more minutes, and then it began to dawn on me that I had school today. I looked over at the clock. Oh shit! It was 7:30 in the morning! I had to get home!

I slipped out of bed, careful not to jostle Edward, and I began to pick up my clothes. I dressed quickly in the bathroom, not bothering to put on any makeup. And then another thought entered my mind. Crap.

I didn't have a car to get home in. Alice had driven me in her Porsche to the bar, and Edward had driven me here in his Volvo.

I wondered if Alice had gotten home last night, or if she had gone home with some guy. I took out my cell phone, walking out of Edward's room and shutting the door lightly behind me. I dialed Alice's number.

"BELLA! WHERE THE HELL ARE YOU?" her voice screeched at me as soon as she picked up.

"I'm still in Port Angeles." I muttered. "Can you pick me up?"

"Did you go home with someone last night?" she asked.

I sighed. "Yes, Alice. I did. Can you just come pick me up? Please? I don't want to be late for school and it takes an hour to get back to Forks."

"I'll leave right now." she reassured me. "Where are you?"

I gave her the address and then she hung up, proclaiming that she was already out the door. I sighed and fell back onto the long blue couch. The champagne was still there from last night, both of the glasses only half empty.

This whole thing with Edward had only been a one night stand, right? So why did I feel so guilty about leaving without saying goodbye? I didn't want him to find out that I was really 17, not 21, and that I was in High School, not working at a fashion agency. But it wouldn't be that bad if he found out anyway, though... would it? I mean, he didn't know I was a minor when we had sex, so he might not get in trouble. Besides, we'd keep it to ourselves.

I took a deep breath, puffing out my cheeks. No. I had to leave. I didn't want him getting in trouble, even if I did really want to just climb back into bed with him. Odds were, I would never see him again. He lived in Port Angeles, and the only times I ever came here were to go shopping. There wasn't a chance I'd see him again.

I jumped when the door opened, and I got off the couch. Alice was here already? I looked at the clock; it had only been 15 minutes. She walked in, wearing the same clothes she had been wearing yesterday.

"Oh. You went home with someone too." I muttered. "Figures."

"Yeah, the guy I was with only lives a few blocks from here." she smiled and peered down the hallway. "Where is... the guy?"

"Sleeping. It was only a one night stand; there's no need to say goodbye." I walked forward. "Let's go."

She nodded. "Ok."

We got in her Porsche and began to drive back to Forks. And just like I knew she would, Alice began asking millions of questions, grinning from ear to ear.

"I can't believe you actually went home with someone! Your first one night stand!" she seemed almost joyous; I was feeling pretty down. "What was his name?"

"Edward." I sighed. "I never got his last name."

"So are we talking another minor with a fake ID? Or someone legal?" she questioned.

"He's legal." I replied, staring out the window.

"How old?"

"28."

"What? 28? Bella that's freaking insane!" at first I thought she was angry, but then her smile got even wider. "But it's also awesome! Was he hot?"

"Very." I sighed. "And he was so nice and gentlemanly to me the entire time. I really wish I didn't have to leave him."

"That's the way it goes." Alice said, turning onto the highway. "You'll get used to it."

"What? Do you think I'm going to have another one night stand with someone?" I was shocked that she would come to the conclusion that I would 'get used to it'.

"If you had one last night, what's the big deal if you have another one?" she asked.

"You don't understand. Edward was... different. He was so nice and sweet. He didn't force me into anything, and he was so gentle." I murmured. "Alice, what I did last night was completely unacceptable. I think I need a little break from going out every weekend."

"But who will I go with next weekend?" she pouted. I rolled my eyes.

"Alice, you don't need me there. You always abandon me as soon as we go in, so what's the point in me going? Usually, I get a ride home with a random girl who's sober." I began chewing on my bottom lip; a habit that I had always had a problem with.

Alice looked like she wanted to retaliate, but she didn't have anything to say. I was right, and she knew it.

We drove back to Forks in silence, the radio turned off. We pulled up at Alice's house (I had told my Dad I was sleeping over there last night) and we ran inside. It was now almost 9:00, and we were an hour late. We dressed quickly, doing our hair and makeup in a rush. We thoroughly brushed our teeth to get rid of the scent of alcohol, and then we were ready.

We arrived at school at 9:45, super late. School had started at 8:00. We ran to the principal's office, trying to catch our breath when we walked up to the front counter. Ms. Cope looked up.

"Late?" she asked. "No excuse?"

I shook my head and so did Alice.

"This is the second time this week, girls. One more tardy and you have detention." she warned, handing us both a late slip to give to our teachers. "Now, get to class."

Biology had started fifteen minutes ago, and that's where we were both headed.

"Hey, I wonder who's going to replace Mr. Banner. He broke his hip last week, remember?" Alice said as we hurried down the corridor.

"Yeah. I hope it's not some douche." I sighed, turning the corner.

We walked up to the Biology classroom door and Alice walked in first. I took a deep breath, really hoping that our new teacher wouldn't get all pissed off that we were late. I heard Alice's chair squeak as she sat down, and then I walked in.

He was leaning over his desk, staring at the text book. My heart nearly stopped when I saw the bronze hair; the green eyes; the perfect jawline. He heard my approach and looked up. Our eyes locked.

Shit.
