Chapter 2. Knowing & understanding
BPOV.
"Hey Bella! Guess what?" Jessica called after me as I entered the door to work on thursday morning.
"Hi Jessica. No, what?" I smiled at her.
"Mike and I are together now! Like together, together. We have been dating for months now and I totally thought that he just wanted to stay friends and then yesterday he kissed me!" She said happily.
"Wow Jessica, that's great!" She was jumping up and down in happiness and I smiled at her. "Edward and I are having our 1 year anniversary in four days!" I said, wanting to even it up and smiled proudly.
"Wow, I didn't know that! Well, congratulations." She had stopped bouncing and smiled warmly at me.
"Thanks." Right after me and Jessica had stopped smiling like idiots and got started, Angela entered. She looked really tired, like she hadn't gotten any sleep in days.
"Angela, how are you?" Jessica asked concerned.
"I'm just so tired. All my relatives from mom's side are visiting. And the little kids are bugging me all the time. I can't get my homework done and I can't sleep because they scream all night." She sighed.
"Oh, that's bad." I made a face.
"Yeah," Angela sighed again. It's bad enough for her to stay up all night, but our work isn't a dance on roses either. Our job is to record, doing paper work and stuff. We work at a bank in the middle of Seattle. It's not hard, but it isn't easy either. And she has school as a cherry on the top of it all.
I jumped of school half a year ago to work as I do now, I just went to college a year. Our job is well paying and you can live on it. I'll tell you, when I did go to school I had really good grades, but with my lack of balance I almost failed gym.
When I came home, Edward had already made dinner. He had made mushroom soup and it was really good. We ate and talked a bit.
"What would you think about visiting my parents this weekend?" He asked smiling. His parents live in Forks, a little town in Washington. Forks is under a near content cover of clouds and rain. I don't get how they can stand it there! It rains all the time, and the sun rearly comes out during summer time at all, or at any point of the year.
"That would be fun." I smiled. "Is Alice and Jasper coming too?"
"Yes, and Rosalie and Emmett are joining us. You know how Emmett love mom's cooking."
"Yeah, that would be really fun. We haven't seen Esme and Carlisle in months!" I said. He was smiling his huge 'family smile', he always wears a big smile like that when we talk about his parents.
We had just finished our dinner when he stood up, walking around our little dining table, pausing before me. I stood up and he wrapped his arms around my waist and kissed me. We stood there for a few moments, then he pulled away.
"I'll do the dishes today," He offered. "You did them yesterday, so it's only fair if I do them now." Before I let him go I kissed his cheek and smiled. Oh, god I love this boy.
"Thank you."
We had eaten around five thirty, and suddenly the clock had turned eight. Edward had done the dishes and after that, he had watched t.v. and I had been reading my copy of Wuthering Heights.
"Shall we go to bed?" He asked, having the crooked smile I love the most, as he turned off the t.v.
"Don't you think it's a bit early for sleep now?" I raised an eyebrow at him.
"Who said we were going to sleep?" He asked, and then the book was out of my hands and I was off the couch. I giggled as he carried me into the bedroom and threw me onto the bed. He turned off the lights and crawled from the foot of the bed and up until he was on top of me. He started kissing me and I responded just the same. His legs were in between my own and I wrapped mine around his waist.
He broke the kiss and in one swift movement his shirt was of. Yet again, I ran my hand down his muscular chest and up, just as stunned as the last time. Then he started trailing kisses along my jaw line and down my throat, up my neck and kissing the hallow base below my ear. He moaned when I moved my hands up in his hair and around in it.
He lifted his head and our eyes met. He pulled off my sweater slowly and teasingly. He finally got it off and threw it somewhere in the back of our room. He smiled as he looked down my half naked body.
"Do you know how beautiful you are?" It didn't sound as a question, more like a statement. I blushed and he kissed the warm spots on my cheeks. He kissed me some more and then his hands started wandering along my body.
"Edward," I moaned.
"Hmmm."
"Edw-" I broke of in the middle of his name. I hadn't realized that I was panting now. But he didn't seem to mind. "Edward." I said again.
"Yes, love?" He answered, panting himself, but kept placing kisses on my neck. Before I got time to response, his right hand had unbottoned my jeans.
"Wait," I said, knowing what he was up to. He looked up a bit confused as I continued. "I love you and, but I... I don't feel ready for this. Not now.. I.. I'm sorry. I love you, I really do. But I-"
"Shh, Bella." He soothed me. "It's okey. It really is, love. We don't have to if you don't want to now." He smiled at me and kissed me one more time. He sat up, but then he started taking his own pants of.
"Edward?" I asked again, we had just talked about not having sex tonight and he was taking his own pants of instead of mine. "We just discussed that we wouldn't do it tonight." I said confused and a bit nervous. He just laughed at me.
"I know, love, but I still want to take my jeans off, it's not comfortable to sleep in jeans."
"Oh," I blushed again and looked down, he lifted my head and smiled at me.
"It's okey, Bella. I don't want to force you into something you don't want to. I can wait." He said softly, kissing me again. I was realived that he was so understanding. I have the best, most wonderful boyfriend in the world.
I smiled at him and stood up. I went in to the bathroom and changed to my pajama pants and threw on a t-shirt.
The next day I woke up early. But Edward beat me with an hour or so. When I had put on a pare of sweatpants and another nicer t-shirt and walked out into the kitchen, he had made fryed eggs and bacon for me and him. He was sitting at the dining table all fixed up for our day with his family.
"Good morning love." He said and smiled.
"Hey Edward." I walked over to him and gave him a quick kiss, got seated and started to eat. And I was hungry! It felt like I could eat a horse.
During my 'eating-breakfust-as-a-dying-hungry-wolf' I remembered what had happened last night, I blushed at the thought. Of course, he wanted to know why.
"Why are you blushing?" I jumped because I hadn't noticed that Edward was standing behind me and whisperinig in my ear. How did he get behind me without me noticing?
"I... uhm, nothing." I could feel my cheeks heatening even more at the thought that he wanted to know.
"Tell me." He said, drawing a pattern with his finger on my heating cheek.
"No.."
"Please," I turned my head and looked at him, and regretted it at once. He was pouting the Cullens' famous mountain moving pout. I sighed and gave up. He would never give up anyway, so I had to make the move.
"Fine.. I was thinking about last night. And, I.. uhm, wanted to thank you for being so understanding." I whispered, whising that he hadn't heard. Well, with my luck... he did.
"It's okey Bella, I already told you that. I can wait." He said softly. I stood up, turned around and gave his soft, warm lips a long kiss.
"You know, when you kiss me like that, you're not doing my waiting thing any easier." He murmured and looked down, but I could still see the smirk on his face.
"Hey," I lifted his head to look at me. "I do what I can." I teased, smirking back at him. He narrowed his eyes at me and I laughed. "Your are so cute when you are fake mad!" I laughed some more and kissed him again.
"Stop it or I'll make you stay away from me!" He threatened, but I just kept laughing at him.
"You wouldn't survive a day without me kissing you." I kept teasing him.
He smiled. " Okey, okey, ready to go visit my parents now?"
"Almost. I just have to freshen up a bit. I'll be back in a few." I smiled and kissed his cheek. "Will you take the dishes?" I asked, remembering where we were and what we had done before the kissing part started.
"Yeah," He said, walking around me and taking the plates. I went to the bathroom and washed my face, then I did my makeup. I applicated some pouder and blush, not that I needed it. I used just a little mascara and some brown eye shadow. After that, I combed my hair and did a loose braid. It was not ugly, but not the sort of braid you have when you walk the runway. It was decent.
I went back to our bedroom and changed to a pair of jeans and a sweater, I took a shirt on top of that, but I left it open so I wouldn't sweat if it would be a nice day in forks.
I walked back out into the kitchen. "Hey, I'm ready to go." I smiled.
Hey there people! I hope you enjoyed the second chapter. I'm not going to talk for long, I just wanna tell you that the accident will probably happen in the fourth chapter, or in the end of the third. I didn't want to make this chapter unnecessarily long because of the family thing going on. :) Keep on reading! The third chapter will be out soon. Now, review time!
