I WANT TO APOLOGIZE FOR HOW LONG THIS HAS TAKEN ME! PLEASE FORGIVE ME. If you need to re-read the first one it's only 2 chapters so it's not like it's too long. Plus it's funny and flirtatious.

They're at school and see what unfortunate drama starts.

Will it end on a good note or things will continue to be uneasy for Bella and Edward?

So Angela's birthday party was this past Saturday. After leaving that night Edward and I couldn't believe what we had just done. It was amazing and exhilarating.

We weren't quite ready for actual sex just yet. Well, I should say Edward wasn't. Well, maybe he mentally was but he didn't want to risk it physically. It's totally understandable under the circumstances but now we have found a new way to be intimate and passionate. Thank you Angela and thank you bottle.

It's Monday now and Edward and I are giving each other googley-eyes as usual while we walk through the parking lot. Even though what happened in the closet was amazing, we love each other just as much as before. Sure this has brought us closer but it has definitely not defined our relationship. Our peers, on the other hand, have a different mind set.

I didn't notice while we walked through the parking lot everyone staring and whispering. However, Edward did. Of course he did. He didn't take his eyes off of me though, instead he just chuckled.

"What's so funny?"

"Nothing really. Just that everyone in this school found out about Angela's party and us and now they won't stop talking about it."

I couldn't help but blush and look around. The people I would look at quickly turned away.

"Let me guess, Jessica?"

"Yup."

When we got into school I walked Bella to her locker. I very rarely brought my books to class. There was no need. I pretty much knew everything there needs to know concerning high school education. When you've been in school as long as me you tend to keep up. Plus it helps that I have a perfect memory.

As Bella got her books out I continued to play with her hair, staring at her face. God, she's so beautiful. She kept looking up at me and blushing. I love when she does that.

"I love you."

"I love you too." Then she kissed me. Lightly. Bella isn't one that likes PDA too much.

A female student walked by…

Geez, get a room. Didn't they get enough of each other in Angela's closet? Now she's got to let the whole school know that she has Cullen? I don't even know what he sees in her. She's an anti-social freak. Bitch.

I growled so loud. Bella looked at me and I had to close my eyes to calm down. How could she say that? Bella doesn't show me off. She doesn't like the attention. These people don't even know the real Bella. She's a beautiful, caring, and passionate woman. They're all so immature. If they were vampires I'd rip all their throats out. Damn, was that too harsh? I pondered… Nope.

Angela walked over. I could tell Bella was a little nervous incase she would say something about her party. But I know she's not as nervous as she would be if it were Jessica. But Angela is the type of person that may mention it when she and Bella were alone, to see how she is, not to spread gossip.

"Hey guys. How was the rest of your weekend?"

"Good," Bella replied while she looked up at me.

"That's good." She turned to me. "Edward thank you so much for the tickets. I'm not sure how you knew but I'm so ecstatic!"

"You're welcome." She is such a nice person. She is the type of friend I'm glad Bella has in her life.

"Is Alice here? I wanted to thank her and set up our shopping date."

"Yeah, she's here. You'll have to just look around for her," I replied.

"Okay. Thanks."

"Bella," she whispered as she pulled Bella aside.

"Yeah?"

"I wanted to thank you for the book."

I turned away from them and smiled. I didn't want her to see my face.

"No problem Ang. Glad you like it."

Angela looked over. "Okay guys, I'll talk to you later."

Bella walked over to me. "I'm glad she liked the book."

She blushed.

"You're so cute when you do that."

She looked up at me and smiled.

"So, you never did tell me anything about that book?"

"Well that's because that isn't the book I bought."

I nodded. She is right. "True. So, as I recall I was promised that I would get to hear about the book you bought… for yourself. What was the name of it again?"

She looked at me and blushed again, leaning her head on my right bicep as she held my right hand.

She purposely ignored my question to save her from embarrassment. "This is me. I'll see you later." She leaned in and kissed me on my cheek.

"Yes, and during that 'later' we'll talk about the book. Right?"

"Right."

"Maybe we can read it together tonight."

She rolled her eyes and walked into her classroom.

Another female student walked behind Bella and must have heard my comment…

They're always together and now he's going over her house tonight? So she's either a slut or she's suffocating him. Maybe both.

These students infuriate me. I couldn't stop from tightening my fists and giving her a death stare. She got big-eyed and walked into Bella's classroom. Bella is not what they keep calling her. We are in love and she is most certainly not suffocating me. And why are they not saying anything about me, why only her? So she is seen as a slut because she's a girl but they say nothing about me because I am a guy? What goes on between Bella and me is private and I wish everyone were mature enough to realize that. Plenty of students are doing what Bella and I am, some even more. They are immature hypocrites who need to stop demeaning Bella. This all better pass… now.

After class I met Bella outside her classroom. We were walking to lunch but she was silent the whole time. Something must be bothering her.

"You're awfully quiet, love."

"Am I?" She seems distracted.

"Yes. Is there something on your mind?"

"No." She's lying. She always gives me one or two worded answers when she's lying.

"Okay." I let it go. She'll tell me when she wants to.

We got to our lunch table and sat down.

"Edward?" Here it is.

"Yes love?"

"Why does everyone keep staring at me? Do I have something stuck on me or something in my teeth?" She looked at me and showed me her teeth. I couldn't help but chuckle.

"I do?" She panicked. She started rubbing her teeth with a napkin.

"No, you don't."

Then she blushed because she felt foolish for overreacting.

"I wonder why then."

I didn't say anything.

"Edward, could you listen to some thoughts and tell me?"

I didn't have to because I know what they've been saying but I did it anyways.

"Whore."

"Skank."

"I fuckin' hate Cullen."

"She'll probably move on to every guy in school before the end of the year."

I tightened my fists and growled.

"Is it that bad?" she anxiously asked.

I don't care what they say about me. I've been dealing with that stuff for years and frankly I don't care. But I know that Bella does. She may act like she doesn't but I know deep down she does. Plus I know she'll worry about Charlie and if her apparent new reputation will affect his image as the Chief of Police here in Forks. As usual, she's worrying about others before herself. Well, with me she doesn't have to worry, that's my job. A job I am so happy to fill.

"Edward, what are they saying?"

"Just talking about the party… and us."

"Great, this is going to be middle school all over again."

She put her head down on the table and I rubbed her back for comfort. Assholes.

"Oh great, what now, is everyone going to get a live show?"

I closed my eyes and pinched my nose, between my eyebrows. This is ridiculous.

She lifted her head. "You know what? I got through it in middle school by myself, I can get through it now with you by my side. It will all pass."

I smiled, "I will always be by your side."

"Sticks and stones, right?" It seemed like she was trying to convince herself more than trying to convince me.

She took a deep breath. "I'm going to go throw out my trash. Can you put my books in my bag for me?"

"Sure love."

She took her tray and walked toward the trashcan.

All of a sudden Alice started to have a vision. By the time it was finished I knew I was too late. I couldn't act fast enough because there was no way I could show my fast speed in front of everyone.

Someone yelled, "Hey SLUT!"

Everyone looked over to the source of the voice, including Bella.

The kid picked up his cup of pudding and threw it in Bella's face.

Everyone went silent. They were all dumfounded by what just happened. The bell rang but no one moved.

I ran over, human speed, and started punching the kid. Unfortunately, I had to hold back or I'd kill him, although that'd be very pleasing.

Bella started crying and tried to wipe the chocolate pudding out of her eyes.

Angela ran over to her to comfort her and help clean off her face.

The cafeteria continued to be silent. All eyes were darting between Bella and me.

Two male school aids came over and pulled me off of him. I surrendered.

I turned around and she was gone.

I looked at Angela, "Where'd she go?"

"She ran outside. I'll go get her."

"Ms. Weber, please go get Ms. Swan and bring her to the principle's office," one of the aids said.

She nodded and ran off to go get Bella while I followed the school aids to the office.

"Alright, everyone needs to stay put. No one leaves," the aid loudly announced.

I was sitting in the waiting room of the principle's office. A few minutes later Bella walked in. Her hair was wet and her face was cleaned off. She must have had to go in the bathroom and clean out the pudding from her face and hair. She also had a gym shirt on. It must have gotten on her shirt as well.

She came over and sat next to me. She leaned on me and put her head under my chin. I put my arm around her to comfort her.

"Mr. Cullen and Ms. Swan, please follow me."

We followed him into his office and were told to wait until Carlisle and Charlie came in.

"While we wait for your parents I wanted to let you know that the other students in the cafeteria gave their statements and the student who threw the food at Bella is being dealt with," the principle reassured us.

That was a relief yet whatever his punishment is, it isn't enough. I took hold of Bella's hand and held it to comfort her. Her eyes were a little puffy from crying. I hated seeing her in this unnecessary pain.

A few minutes later Carlisle and Charlie came in. They both looked at us. Carlisle looked at me in concern while Charlie looked at Bella in worry.

"Chief Swan and Dr. Cullen, could you please have a seat?" They both sat in the two chairs next to us.

"I called you both here because there was an incident in the cafeteria today concerning Bella, Edward, and another student." He paused while Charlie and Carlisle looked at each of us. "Please, who would like to start?"

"I will Sir," I said as I sat up straight in my chair.

"Okay then. Please tell us what happened."

"Well, we were in the cafeteria and Bella went to go throw her trash out while I got her books together for next period." I paused and looked at Bella rubbing circles on her hand with my thumb. "I looked over when I heard a kid yell 'Hey SLUT'. That's when I saw him throw his cup of pudding in Bella's face." I heard her let out a few tears. It was driving me insane. I wanted to take her into my arms. "That's when I ran over and started hitting him. The next thing I know the aids came and got me off of him and Bella had ran outside, crying."

It was silent. Carlisle put his hand on my shoulder while Charlie knelt down next to Bella. "Are you okay Bells?" She just nodded.

Charlie stood up and asked, "How'd this all happen? Why would he yell that at her?" He was waiting for either Bella or I to start to explain. Bella chose to speak.

"He said it because of something that happened at Angela's birthday party." She paused and let out a sigh. "They wanted to play a game and we played."

"What game?" Charlie asked.

"It's called 7 minutes in heaven. Two people get picked to go into the closet and you are suppose to make out with that person for 7 minutes." She paused again. "Edward and I got picked to go in there together. They must assume that we did certain things in there and I guess rumors got around school and they've all been giving me looks all day."

"What certain things Bells?"

"You know dad… sex stuff."

"Well did you?"

"Dad, that is besides the point! Whether or not we did doesn't mean that they should go around broadcasting it to the whole school to the point that we are being judged and I'm getting food thrown in my face!" She took a deep breath and sat back with her eyes shut.

Charlie didn't know what to say. He put his hands through his hair and leaned on the wall.

Carlisle began to speak, "Sir, what happens from here?"

"Well, I can go easy on Mr. Cullen since he has never caused problems before."

"Meaning?"

"Meaning that I will give Edward a 5 day suspension while Bella is free to go."

"What about the other kid?" Charlie snapped.

"He too is getting a 5 day suspension."

It was silent for a few moments.

The principle started speaking again. "So Mr. Cullen and Ms. Swan can leave for the day and Mr. Cullen, your suspension begins tomorrow. You will spend the rest of week and next Monday off school premises. You will restart school next Tuesday."

"Yes Sir."

"Ms. Swan I am terribly sorry this happened to you. It's unfortunate how immature these students can be sometimes. This will all pass within the next few days I'm sure of it. If not you come to me and action will be taken." She nodded. He looked up at the rest of us. He was basically saying you can leave now.

I took Bella's hand and the 4 of us walked out. When we got to the hallway I turned around to look at Bella.

"Are you alright love?" She just nodded.

"Edward, lets go home," Carlisle told me.

"Edward, I wanted to let you know that I appreciate you defending Bella like that." He turned and looked at Bella. "And I gotta say, I'm kind of happy I didn't have to arrest you today." He actually meant it. That means a lot to me.

"Chief Swan, I will defend Bella as long as live." I paused. "And I also have to say that I am too pleased that I wasn't arrested, especially by you."

He chuckled. "Come on Bella." Charlie put his hand on her back, guiding her to his car. Bella slightly turned and looked over shoulder at me. I miss her already.

I walked to my car and drove home while Carlisle drove back to the hospital.

I went to Bella's house later that night. I slipped into her window around 9pm. She had gotten a shower and was wearing my hoodie and sweat pants. She looked beautiful.

She quickly turned around from her bureau. "Oh, hi Edward, you startled me."

"Sorry, love."

"No it's fine." She paused. "How was the rest of your afternoon?"

"Lonely." It truly was.

"Yeah, I can say the same."

She sat on the bed and l joined her.

"You don't have to ask Edward, I feel better now."

"Really?"

"Yeah. I mean, it will be hard the rest of the week without you but I've gone my whole life dealing with problems myself. So I know I can get through this. I'm sure within the next day or so everyone will forget this. These kids have short attention spans. If someone gets arrested tomorrow then we're 'old new'." She chuckled. "Okay?" I hope so.

"Okay. If you're sure."

"I'm sure." She did seem better than earlier.

"Now, I recall there is a certain something that we were suppose to do tonight before bed." She smiled.

"And what is that?" I knew what she was talking about.

She picked up the book and handed it to me.

This will take her minds off of things and it will be fun reading something… different.

BPOV

I'm glad Edward is here. He comforts me in ways he doesn't realize. I snuggled on him and talked to him about the book.

"So where do you want to start?" I asked him.

"Wherever you left off."

"The book is about a girl, Chelsea, who is an owned serf, who falls in love with Maverk, the prince of the kingdom. She goes out in the town in regular clothes and he approaches her. He thinks she's the most beautiful woman he's ever seen. He continues to think that she is a regular towns-person. Little does he know that she is a serf to local residents in the town. So we need to find out what happens next."

"Sounds interesting." He paused. "What kinds of things happen to consider this an erotic books?" He gave me his half smile that I love so much.

I blushed. "Umm…" I couldn't stop blushing.

He let out a chuckle. "You're embarrassing me Edward."

"There's no need for you to be embarrassed. It's just me. You never have to be embarrassed in front of me."

"I know." I let out little laugh. "Trust me, if I didn't trust you with making me feel the way you do I wouldn't give myself to you like I have." I paused and looked up at him. "Edward, I know that whatever I do or say or however I act, you never judge me or make fun of me. You don't know how that makes me feel. It's incredible. I feel comfortable with you and trust you completely."

He looked in awe like he couldn't believe what he just heard. I took a deep breath.

"Are you alright love?"

"Yeah, I'm fine. Well, more than fine actually. I'm great. It's just that I'm realizing what I have with you and I feel like I am the luckiest woman on earth. It's indescribable."

He had the biggest smile on his face. I squeezed him so tight that if he were human I probably would have cut off his air circulation.

"Do you want to still talk about the book?" he asked.

'"Sure. It's just that I don't know what to say or how to start or anything." I couldn't help but blush.

He started fiddling with the book. "How come you have more than one book mark? There are a few here."

"Wait! Don't take them out. You'll lose the pages."

"I don't understand why you would have more than one. Are there certain scenes you like more than others?" He paused. "Wait…."

Oh my god, he figured it out. I must have been beat red. I threw my throw blanket over my head and turned away from him lying on my side.

The whole time all I thought to myself was… Please let him think it's something else… Please let him think it's something else…

"Bella?"

I hesitated, "Yes?"

"Look at me."

"No."

"Please look at me."

"No. I don't want to."

"Why?"

"You know why."

"No I don't." I heard him chuckle.

"Yes you do. I just heard you laugh."

"What happened to the whole 'I won't judge you or make fun of you' that you just talked about?"

"I do mean that. But that doesn't mean that I still won't get embarrassed with certain topics. Or that you won't tease me."

"Come on Bella, I'm not making fun of you. I just think it's cute."

"You just want me to say certain words."

"Whose teasing now?"

"I'm just stating facts."

"How do you know it's a fact?"

"Because."

"Because why?"

"Because I just do."

"Okay, say it is a fact. Now what?"

"I don't know."

"Well how about you start by taking off the blanket?"

There was a pause for about 30 seconds and then I turned around and finally started to take the blanket off of my head. Some of my hair was frayed in my face. He started brushing it aside so he could see my face.

"Okay, step one, taking the blanket off my head – completed. What's step two?"

"Step two… Mmm…" He was thinking. "How about step two is reading your first book mark?"

"Okay. One condition."

"What is that, love?"

"You have to read it. That way if you get embarrassed you won't blush. I'll never know. Plus you're more confident with this stuff. Damn you and your self-confidence." He slightly laughed. I moved over to him some.

"Okay, deal." He smiled. "What's happening in this chapter? Just give me an overview."

"Well this is where Chelsea and the Prince meet up in the forest. She has to sneak away so her masters don't see her leave the grounds. And he is a prince so he sneaks away with her since he has an arranged marriage. Oh and remember, he doesn't know she is a serf."

"Okay. So, they're in the forest… what's happening in the forest?"

"Just read." I blushed and push my face into his chest. He chuckled and started to read. "Oh wow, you have parts highlighted and everything." He looked over to me.

"If you don't stop teasing me and read I'm out of here."

"But this is your room." I felt stupid.

"Just read!" I didn't yell, just more of an enforced voice. He just laughed.

Story:

CPOV

"Prince Maverk, I'm over here." I saw him smile, which made me smile.

"Chelsea, I've missed you."

"How long do you have until you need to be back?"

"I have an hour my love."

"We must make the best of it." I hope the other serfs can cover that long for me. If I get whipped it will be worth it.

We started to kiss. There was so much passion. He cupped my face and I put my hands around his waist. We made our way over by a tree without letting go of our lips. He placed me down so that he was over me. We stared into each other's eyes and then he continued to kiss me.

I started to unbutton his shirt. He willingly took it off. Then he started to untie my dress. There is so many layers I hope we have enough time to undo them all….

"This is a benefit for our time era. We don't have to wear so many layered clothes. We get our clothes off quicker so we have more time for other things."

"Bella, shh, I'm reading."

"I'm just saying." I giggled.

After a few minutes we were finally naked. It felt as though it was an eternity since we've last made love.

He began to caress my breasts. His hands were so soft and warm. He kissed my neck and I couldn't help but gasp. I took his face and brought it back up to mine. I needed to taste his sweet lips once again.

"Prince Maverk, please, please make love to me."

"Of course my dearest."

I felt Prince Maverk lay his body on me. His body kept me warm while a breeze came through the forest. He looked me in the eyes and began to enter me…

I giggled.

"Bella."

"I'm sorry. Please, continue."

"Is this what you do when you read?"

"Maybe… maybe more."

"What?"

"Just read."

He gave me a particular look and then continued to read.

When he fully entered me I let out a loud gasp. I felt complete; I felt whole. We loved each other so much it was unexplainable.

He began to thrust into me and it felt like heaven.

He whispered in my ear, "I love you Chelsea."

"I love you too Maverk."

I grabbed his face and we kissed until we were in ecstasy. When we were finished he laid next to me and kissed me again. We looked into each other's eyes for what felt like eternity. We realized that much time has passed and we both needed to get back to our homes. After we were dressed we looked at each other, shared one last passionate kiss, and then parted ways….

Find out if Edward likes the story or is sort of disappointed.

See what certain topics come up and where they lead.

Also, please leave reviews and let me know what you thought about this chapter. Thanks!
