Edward's POV

They were scheming again, I knew IT.

Why else would they insist on a shopping trip for the whole family?

Well. Not the whole family. Everyone except for Carlisle and Esme.

I had a feeling that the only reason our dear parents were left out, was that they wouldn't approve of the girls' plan.

If you bring Rosalie and Alice into it, who would?

Usually on their shopping trips, they went to Paris or London, or New York and got new wardrobes for themselves as well as Emmett, Jasper and me.

Apparently, we couldn't shop for shit.

In Rosalie's words, of course, not mine.

And, of course, being so efficiently whipped, Emmett and Jasper never did anything to disagree.

Because, then, the girls pulled out the worst threat: You will do as I say, or no sex.

Bella would never do that to me.

That is, if we were having sex. Which we aren't. Because she refuses to marry me.

But, then again, this is another reason to stay celibate: she won't be able to pull that threat. And, also I won't become addicted like Emmett. Or even Jasper.

So ha.

We were at Nordstrom's, the guys together, and the girls separated from us.

They were talking and laughing, as usual, nothing to suspect that they had any intentions apart from a fun filled shopping day.

Hmmmph.

So, they searched the racks, having paid Nordstrom's to clear out the rest of the customers for us, and to lay out the newest clothes and designer things.

Within a few minutes, Alice had grabbed a lot of things to try on.

"What? Shopping is less fun when you don't try on things. And besides. When your size doesn't change in a century, it gets annoying." She hissed as she noticed funny looks from us.

Rosalie and Bella were still contemplating some outfits, Rosalie picking mostly sexy, revealing clothes for Bella to wear.

Low cuts, short skirts and pants. . . .

Crap! NO drooling!

Bella glanced my way and blew me a kiss. I grinned, and turned back to Emmett and Jasper, who were both looking at me and shaking their heads.

"What?" I asked, irritated.

"I can feel the lust coming off of you in tidal waves. Her stubbornness was only increased by the change. She's not going to marry you." Jasper told me sadly.

"Yeah man. I don't see why you won't just give up, already." Emmett chastised me.

I turned my head and walked slowly, having no direction at all.

It didn't help. I could still hear their thoughts.

Shit. If I thought he was Mr. Repressed before she was a vampire, it's nothing compared to now. Now, he's like, so sexually repressed, he could get the whole of Forks to get in on the horizontal Macarena! He could, possibly turn Newton gay.And, judging from how he looked at Bella, that would NOT be an easy thing to do.
I wonder if he'll stay a virgin for all of eternity. . .Oh God, NOOO! I wouldn't be able to concentrate. I would become like Emmett! A complete and total nympho!

I dunno why poor, chaste Eddie doesn't just give in already. I mean, he's completely and totally whipped. But noooo, he wanted her because of her intellectual skills! Hmmph. I've gotta say, those certainly aren't the only skills I wanted Rose for. Actually. Those weren't the skills I wanted Rose for at all. At first.

Then a picture of Rosalie in a dominatrix costume appeared in his mind. I tuned out.

Funny how things can stimulate my gag reflex when it doesn't actually work.

Then. . . .

Then, I saw a sign: lingerie.

Jasper and Emmett stampeded and started looking at different colours, patterns and costumes.

I wonder if Bella would like one. . . .

No. I will not buy lingerie for Bella. Especially when I'm not going to be taking her out of it.

Then, my eyes caught one in particular.

OhHhHhHh.

That looked so good.

It was gorgeous. It would look even more gorgeous on her.

The top was a small, corset bodice that laced tightly with a very thin string holding it like a halter.

The bottom was a small, lacy, boy shorts that left very little to the imagination.

Oh God. I wanted to get it for her.

No. I wanted it on her.

And, I wanted to take it off.

Then, Jasper looked at me strangely.

"Uh, Edward? Are you sure you, uh, don't want to rethink that celibacy thing? Cuz, um. I don't think your body likes it very much." He broke out into a grin.

I followed his gaze.

Oh. Ohhhhhhh.

Oops.

Suddenly, my pants fit a bit tighter.

Um, yeah. So, never having been to Nordstrom's, I don't actually know if they have a lingerie department. But I needed an expensive, designer clothes store with everything.
And, I couldn't have the guys shopping in Victoria Secret, could I? Well. Yeah, I could, but that just didn't go with the story. So. Um. Review, will you. Cuz I'd like some feedback.

Something more than 'it was great! Write more!'. Believe me, I thank you guys for loving my story, but, some tips, suggestions and constructive criticism would be nice, yah know?
