Okay, this is my first fanfic as said before, but I read them ALL THE TIME!!! I never really understood why authors liked reviews so much until I stated getting them. They make me want to pump the chapters out even faster. I wont beg for them, but I want everyone who has reviewed so far to know it is appreciated...really! So thanks.

I shuffled my feet back to my room knowing that I would have to now deal with these new found feelings for Bella. I've never really had a crush before. I know, it sounds completely insane, but no girl really interested me all that much. I always got hit on by girls a lot, but they all just seemed to be unintelligent girls who thought themselves pretty. I found them immensely annoying.

But the more I thought about it, the more my feelings for Bella made sense. She was always intelligent. She never threw herself at me. She was a great friend and sweet and kind and...let's face it, she was perfect. And now I could shoot myself for not realizing it sooner.

But for her benefit I had to push those thoughts from my mind. I was just a friend to her...her best friend's brother. Someone as perfect as Bella could never feel anything more than friendship for someone like me. She deserved so much better. So, for this summer, I would simply pretend nothing changed. We'll be friends, and have fun, but nothing more.

I walked to my bed and sat down next to her angel face, her body once again covered by the sheets. I reached my hand out and grabbed her shoulder. Her incredibly soft shoulder...I wonder if her entire body is this soft...EDWARD, stop it! I shook her gently but all she did was sigh in contentment. So I leaned in so that my lips were right next to her ear. My heart pounding at our closeness. And I could smell her. Oh god, did she smell good. Like freesia, but her hair was sweet like strawberries.

I shook her again and whispered, "Bella. It's Edward."

I heard her gasp as I backed my head away slowly. Her long black eyelashes fluttered open to reveal big brown, doe like eyes looking up at me. A smile crossed her lips. Her full, red, gorgeous lips that seemed so kissable.

"Hey" I managed to breathe out.

Her smile widened which made me smile in return.

"Edward. Hi. Wow, I haven't seen you in years. Wow!" She seemed quite shocked to see me.

"You don't see me in years and that's all you can say?" I laughed. "Not even a hug for your old friend?" I said acting hurt.

She slowly and sensually (although she didn't notice) raised her body as the sheets fell down to the bed as she kneeled. I didn't stare at her body long due to her embracing me in a hug, which I gladly returned. From that hug, I could feel every inch of her body press against mine and I couldn't help but notice how perfectly she fit in my arms. Then, all too soon she pulled away.

"Oh my god! I'm so sorry. I'm in your bed. It's just that they said you wouldn't be home, and the guest rooms wasn't finished, and Esme and Alice said you..." she babbled like Alice had until I put my index finger on her amazing lips to silence her. I moved my head a bit closer to hers.

"It's fine, Bella" I breathed on her face. Her eyes closed for a moment and then looked at me again. I gave her a crooked smile and said, "It's still early. You should go back to sleep."

Her beautiful forehead creased a little. "But where will you sleep? I mean, you must be tired."

"I will sleep on my couch." I said matter-of-factly looking over to my black leather couch against the wall.

She followed my gaze. "No, no way!" she said, her voice raising a little. "There is no way I'm sleeping in your room, in your bed while you suffer the stiffness of the sofa. Sorry, pal...not gonna happen."

"Excuse me, what kind of man would I be if I made a beautiful woman sleep on a couch?" I hope she didn't catch that.

But she probably did because her cheeks turned a delicious pink and then responded, "A good one?"

I chuckled causing her to laugh with me. Her laugh was a beautiful sound. I would make a mental note to make her do that as much as I could this summer. "Nice try, but no. Now please hand me a pillow." I said pointing to a pillow laying behind her.

"No" she simply said, crossing her arms over her chest which unknowingly made her already incredible cleavage even more pronounced. God, this girl is going to be the death of me.

"You're so stubborn." I leaned around her to grab the pillow myself, letting my arm graze her right shoulder. I then walked to the couch and set the pillow on the arm of the sofa. I turned around to see Bella sitting in the bed, staring at me.

He turned back towards me and I couldn't help but to be locked in those green eyes. He walked back towards me and I swallowed...hard. My heart beat started to thump faster as he stopped in front of me and let his hands rest on my thighs, just above my knees.

His eyes never left mine as his hands grabbed a handful of the sheets and then swiftly ripped one of the countless sheets off the bed and walked back over to his couch.

I exhaled a huge breath and fell backwards onto the pillows with my eyes closed, thinking about how his hands had felt. "Goodnight Edward." I mumbled just loud enough for him to hear.

"Sweet dreams, Bella." he whispered back as I heard him walk to the left side of the bed where his dresser stood.

I tried to focus on sleeping and not feeling guilty about him sleeping on a couch in his own room, when I heard the rustling of clothing. I opened my eyes only slightly so that they were slits.

Edward pulled his pants down to reveal boxer-briefs clinging to his muscular thighs. He pulled on a pair of flannel pajama bottoms. Then, he crossed his arms in front of his chest, each hand grabbing at the hem of the bottom of his shirt. Okay, I know I should look away, really, I do, but I couldn't. He slowly (and I do mean slowly) pulled his shirt up, revealing his abs, up to his pecs, and the whole shirt was off and I could see every muscle in his arms as he moved his arms.

I shut my eyes to try to clear my thoughts, but it just brought the image of Edward to my mind. Adonis would've been jealous of a body like that. I did the only thing I could do to shake the lust I was feeling. I feigned irritation. "I can hear you moving around." I said in an annoyed voice. Then I sat up. "Are you ever going to go to bed?"

"He gave me that heart stopping crooked smile. "Well, actually, since I'm not sleeping in a bed, no. I will be going to sofa." he answered with a laugh.

"Alright, that's it." I said as I threw myself off the bed and marched over to where he was standing by his couch.

"Bella, what are you doing?" he asked.

I pointed to his bed. "You are sleeping in your bed. Go! I can't stand the guilt." I told him as I tried desperately hard not to stare at his bare chest...his bare, chiseled chest. "Please." I said softer. "Please sleep in your bed."

"You're never going to let this go, are you?" he asked smiling at me.

"Nope, never" I said with an answering smile.

"Fine."

"Wait. Really? You're just going to give into me? That was easier than I thought." I laughed, feeling proud of myself and my stubbornness.

I got a little suspicious when he laughed with me. "Oh, I'm not giving into you." he said, that cocky smile appearing. "We will both sleep in the bed."

"What?" I couldn't have heard him right. I just thought I heard Edward Cullen tell me we would sleep together.

"Well, it's the only thing I can think of so that we'll sleep. Considering you're too stubborn to take the bed, and I'm to much of a gentleman to let you sleep on the couch...this is the solution."

I tried to calm my now racing heart and act nonchalant. "Fine. What side do you want?"

"Left. Unless, of course you would prefer to left." he said looking into my eyes again.

I blushed and looked away. "No. I actually prefer the right."

"Good, that worked out perfect. It seems we were meant to sleep together." My heart nearly bounced out of my chest at that statement and my cheeks became hot.

"Goodnight, again." I said as I climbed into the bed.

"Good morning, Bella..after all, it is five o'clock." he said with a laugh as he climbed in as well.

I turned so my back was facing him. There was a better chance of sleep if I didn't stare at him. Although I knew that I wouldn't really sleep anymore that morning, I still closed my eyes. And of course when I closed my eyes, all I saw was shirtless Edward. It took all the control I had to not turn to him, grab his face, and kiss those velvet looking lips. These next few hours were going to be the hardest of my life.

OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

I think I spent two hours laying next to Bella and not sleeping. All I could think about was Bella laying next to me, wearing next to nothing, and all the possibilities. I know it's wrong. Really, I do. Esme raised me much better than this, but I couldn't help it. I had never felt this way about anyone.

She was so cute when she was being stubborn. And then when she crossed her arms across her chest...oh god! I had bite my lip to keep down the moan I had in my throat, just thinking about her. I couldn't help my mind from drifting to all the things I wanted to do to her. All the ways I wanted to please her. God, I want to please her. Her being pleased would do nothing but please me in return. Knowing she would like what I would do...

I looked down and noticed I got myself a little too excited and turned on my side to hid that excitement that was now quite evident. I had to calm down.

After a couple minutes of trying to calm myself and failing miserably, I decided a shower was in order...an nice long, cold shower.

Once I heard the bathroom door shut, I let out a huge sigh. The sexual frustration I had experienced in the last couple hours was brutal. But now I could think somewhat clearly and that's exactly what I needed to do...think.

I get to see the love of my life again and I'm finally grown up enough to do something about it, or so I thought. But then I realized I had never actually tried to get Edward before. I used to think that a friend was all I would ever be...and I accepted that. I never tried to be more. I never thought of the possibilities of us actually being together. But now I was all too aware of the possibilities. And I liked them. And so just like that, it was decided.

I would make Edward fall in love with me.

That would be my mission this summer. To finally find out if there would be a chance for us. Because even if I fail miserably, I would never look back and wonder what if. I smiled at my new decision. But if I was essentially going to seduce Edward, I would have to talk to Alice.

I glanced at the clock on the bedside table. 7:36. I wonder if she's up yet. Well, only one way to find out.

Not paying attention to my sleeping attire, I threw the covers off my and ran from the door into the hallway. And then, a slight breeze hit me and I looked down to what I was wearing. Oh shit! I blushed realizing that Edward had seen me wearing this last night. I pushed the thought from my mind and continued walking.

"Whoa, Squirt! Well you certainly filled out nicely." Emmett laughed as I turned an even darker shade of red.

"Aw, Em. You're just jealous you can't wear this kind of underwear." I retorted.

Jasper's laughing came from the stairs. "It wouldn't be funny if it weren't true." he managed to get out before laughing again.

"Hey Jaz, is Alice up yet?" I asked.

"Yeah, I think so."

"Thanks." and with that I ran into her room, closed the door, and of course, in true Bella style, tripped.

"Dammit! Ow!"

"Well, good morning to you too." Alice laughed, already plenty awake. God, how could someone be this happy all the time?

"Hey Alice." I laughed. Then I stopped and looked at her seriously. "Did you know your brother came home last night?"

"Yeah, he was surprised to see you in his bed when he got home. I don't think he recognized you." she giggled.

"What do you mean?" I asked confused.

"Well he came in my room saying there was a 'beautiful woman' in his bed and asked if you were a present." she laughed. "It was so cute."

I blushed. "He called me beautiful?"

"Yeah, why?"

I covered my face with one of her pillows and spoke into it. "Alice, I'm in love with Edward."

She pulled the pillow from my face. A huge smile on her lips. "What did you say?" she asked smiling even wider.

"I love Edward." I said. "There, are you happy?" I grumbled.

She just squealed and started jumping up and down. "How long has this been going on?"

"Since about the day I met him." I mumbled while feeling my cheeks burn. "I was kinda hoping you'd help me get him to like me."

"Oh my god! I'm so excited! Ooooo...let me go get Rose. She'll help too." And with that, she was gone. I didn't mind if Rose helped. She was good at the game of seducing, and I was going to need all the help I could get.

A couple minutes later, they came in the door. Rose looked slightly tired.

"I'm sorry Rose. I didn't mean for her to wake you up." I said guiltily.

"Who cares? Matchmaking is so much mor important than sleep." I had to laugh at that.

"My thoughts exactly." Alice agreed. "Okay, let's get this love-sick puppy into a hot outfit and then onto hair and make-up."

The only thing I could do was groan as they rummaged through Alice's closet and wonder what I had gotten myself into. But maybe it would be worth it...I hope so.
