Hey everyone, sorry this has taken so long but I just couldn't seem to get the mojo going but here it is and it's the longest chapter yet I think.

First off I just want to thank those that have added this to their favorites and those that are following this story as well as BOH. All of you are awesome.

Okay shutting up now, go ahead and read it and let me know what you think and just remember I don't own it, SM does, lucky woman.

Chapter 7-Ummm Charlie

I gently lifted my son out of the car whose mind was bouncing with excitement that I couldn't help the smile from my face. He was so happy to have me here, happy to have aunts and uncles, more grandparents and now he was excited to see his poppy Charlie again.

His little mind was going a mile a minute and I regret to say that most children's minds gave me a headache but that was way back then, now I could spend all day long listening to the thoughts of my son.

I took a hold of Bella's hand as we made our way into the chief's house, I knew my Bella, she would want to do this on her own but she wasn't alone anymore, not now, not ever again.

"We'll do this together" I whispered in her ear watching as she shivered and I couldn't help but smile as I heard her heart race, her pulse beneath my fingers quickened and there was the slight scent of arousal on the air, hers, and I had to will myself to calm down, now was not the time for hormones.

"Dad got a minute?" she asked as we walked into the kitchen and saw Charlie bent over the sink, no doubt washing some fish.

"Yeah Bells, no problem, I was just washing some fish for supper. So how did it go with Mrs. Cullen tod...?" He didn't get a chance to finish.

Chief Swan turned around and stared in what can only be described as shock, no doubt due to the fact that his 17 year old daughter was holding hands with a boy he had never met and that said boy was holding his grandson.

His thoughts exploded into "What the Hell" and "Bella doesn't know anyone here", "Boy better not be trying to take advantage of my girl" I frowned a bit, like I would ever hurt Bella

Then he looked hard and saw recognition cross his face as he thought "Golden eyes, he looks familiar, ah yes, Carlisle's boy, he must of helped Bells home, wait why are they holding hands?" he grumbled a little under his breath

I had only been around the chief once or twice and it was always in passing, he was still hard to read. His thoughts although clear, were staggered and sparse, I could only hear certain things instead of a full thought.

He was suspicious of me, that much was clear but one look on Bella's face as well as his grandson was enough to put him slightly at ease.

"Bells not to be rude, but who are you and what the hel...eck do you think you're doing with my grandson?" he asked and I held back my chuckle at his slightly befuddled state

"Chief Swan it's an honour to meet you sir, please allow me to introduce myself, I'm Edward Cullen" I said softly holding out my hand that had been in Bella's so he could shake it and I prayed he wouldn't question my cold skin

He seemed calm and although I knew my Bella was probably cursing me in her head for remaining so calm, I was anything but.

When I suggested this plan all I really wanted was for people in this town to know she was mine and that EJ was my son. I wanted to make things easier for her and for there to be no questions in school on Monday. I wanted what my siblings had, selfish yes but that didn't stop me from wanting it, craving it.

Now, well now I was actually scared out of my wits. How the hell was I going to explain this?

It seemed like a good idea, but now here face to face with the man who gave me Bella, who very well could be my father in law one day, well as a vampire there isn't much that can scare me. The chief did. He could try to shoot me, wouldn't work but the bullet could bounce and hit EJ or Bella, he could forbid them from ever seeing me or send them back to her mom which I could tell was a bad idea and I would follow them there or he could start ranting and raving all over town and bring the Volturi down on us.

Suddenly this was a bad idea.

"Great idea dim wit, what the hell are you gonna say? "Umm Charlie, hey listen, umm first I'm a vampire, but no worries I only drink animal blood and I was the one who saved Bella from that guy and hey I was just wondering if you would be okay with us telling everyone in town that Bella and I are a couple and I'm EJ's father" my conscious mocked and I felt faint

"Cullen huh, you're one of Carlisle' kids I take it" Charlie asked eyeing our joined hands; his thoughts were based on that fact that he didn't like this. He respected my father but anyone who was eyeing his baby girl was a scoundrel.

"Yes sir" I answered sounding more confident than I was; inside I was screaming.

"Well it looks as if this might be something I should sit down for so let's go into the living room" Charlie suggested. I took a deep breath and followed him and Bella into the living room. I set EJ down on the floor and he automatically went for his toys. At least he had an escape, Bella was biting her lip and I was in a state of panic.

"Please lord, if you are there, I know a creature such as I does not deserve to ask but they mean so much to me, please let the chief not run me out of town" I prayed for the first time in years it seems as I sat down and waited with baited breath on my future.

"Okay, so let me get this straight, you were the one who saved my daughter that night and you have been seeing her and helping her raise my grandson for the last two years?" Charlie asked while going red.

His thoughts were angry but grateful. I breathed a sigh of relief

"And you want me to back up this story you have come up with?" he continued

"Yes sir, that's what we want, and with all due respect Chief Swan I plan on telling everyone that anyways with or without your consent, but I know how much you mean to EJ and Bella and I would prefer that you knew of our plans out of respect" I stated and his eyes narrowed on me, and I gulped.

"You dumbass" my mind laughed

Bella was looking around and I saw her eyes zone in on the chief's gun and she looked nervous, he wouldn't really use it would he?

"Bells, how do you feel about this?'" Charlie directed at Bella

"I'm great with it Dad, he's been there for two years and EJ already calls him Daddy so I see no problem with it, it's better than what actually happened. Please Dad, just go with it" she begged the look of love clearly written on her face and my insides jumped.

She was so beautiful, how could I ever live without her.

Charlie let out a sigh and held his arms out for EJ who giggled leaping into the arms of his grandfather. Charlie grunted and commented on how big and strong EJ was getting. We were definitely going to have to put a stop to that soon, at least for humans. I kept forgetting that EJ wasn't like most children; he was stronger than they were. In all honestly he could hurt Charlie, he was soon going to be too strong, and he could accidently hurt someone.

I watched in amusement as Charlie tickled EJ and asked him if he knew where his daddy was "Daddy, Daddy Daddy" my son squealed and pointed at me. I wanted to cry, my son was so sweet and I knew if my heart beat than it would leap out of my chest every time I heard him call me daddy.

Charlie sighed once again and covered EJ's ears saying "Alright I'll go along with it, but you listen to me boy you hurt her or my grandson and so help me I will hunt you down and make sure that no one will find your remains got it?" I nodded fearfully and told him he had nothing to worry about.

I would never hurt them and god help the one who did.

Charlie hadn't mentioned anything about me being a vampire but his mind chose to ignore it. He wasn't ready to acknowledge it yet.

"Alright then well now that's settled will Edward be joining us for supper I thought maybe we could go down to the diner for a bite and some of my old friends want to meet my grandson" Charlie asked.

I politely declined stating that Esme expected me back to the house and I was just making sure Bella and EJ got home safely and safely avoiding the notion of having to eat human food.

Charlie may know what I was but not the full detail and I had my doubts he would want to try to explain to his friends about me.

I really wasn't looking forward to the time apart, I just got them back, I didn't want my time cut yet, but I didn't want to be selfish either, Bella needed her dad just as much any other child does. I certainly wouldn't want anyone to take away my child so I let my selfishness go.

Charlie told me that they would be back in a couple of hours and that if I wanted to come back and help Bella get EJ ready for bed than I was more than welcome.

"Boy is already seeing her, is already called daddy, might as well let him do it" Charlie thought"

I couldn't help the smile on my face so I hugged EJ tightly telling him I would be back soon to tuck him in and kissed my Bella quickly, no need to give Charlie a heart attack with the way I wanted to kiss her. I left the house feeling the pain immediately.

For a split second I thought of following them to the diner, but I knew my Bella needed this time with her dad, he had just got her back too and I couldn't be too selfish.

So instead I went home where I knew I would have some more questions to answer and would patiently wait for my family to come home.

When I arrived home my sisters were on one computer while my brothers on another and my parents were in Carlisle's office going over house plans.

"What are you doing" I asked amused at the excited thoughts

"Oh Edward, we love Bella and EJ so much but honestly did you see what they were wearing I mean my god, no sister and nephew of mine will be walking around looking like that" Alice huffed and I chuckled, she was shopping of course

"Totally and while I'm sure he has lots of toys, I can't resist getting him some more" Rose squealed, she was loving having a nephew apparently and I found enjoyment in having her finally shake off her ice queen ways when usually it was only Emmett who could do that.

I wandered into Carlisle's office and found my parents pouring over house plans; Esme was looking at the papers and at fabric swatches and paints, her phone attached to her ear while Carlisle chuckled.

"What's going on?" I asked

"As soon as you left your mother decided that we didn't have the room so she's been busy going over blue prints to build a few new rooms. She plans to have an extra bedroom and playroom for EJ built as well another bathroom" he laughed and I joined him

My mother was a force to be reckoned with when it came to her family, I could hear the man on the phone say that that the bedroom furniture she wanted would take weeks to order and ship.

"Okay look, I need this set by the end of the week, now you can either get that to me quickly or I can speak with the head of the company so what's it gonna be?" she huffed and the man gave in

"Excellent, thank you so much" she said

"Oh Edward dear, there you are, listen I need to you to tell me that this bed is okay" Esme asked after she hung up on the phone and showed me a picture in a catalogue of a huge king size bed with a some sort of dark wood headboard. I was confused, why would I need a bed, I didn't sleep

"Edward, surely you don't expect Bella to sleep on that sofa" she huffed and I had to admit I never thought of it

"Sorry mom, the bed is fine" I told her and she kissed my cheek and walked out of the office thinking of adding blue to my room and EJ would love having a car themed room, there was even a bed shaped like a car ordered

"Happy son?" my father chuckled

"More than I've ever been" I said

"I can tell son, just know that I'm happy for you, I always thought that just having my family was enough but now you've given us Bella and EJ, you've given me another daughter and a grandson. Thank you son" he said close to sobbing

I wrapped my arm around my father and told him I was the one who should be thanking him, for giving me this life, for having the chance to meet Bella and to have a son.

Our moment was broken when Alice let out a high pitched squeal.

"What now?" Carlisle thought to me

"Apparently some designer that Alice had in mind for Bella, has a children's line, there's also a sale on" I sighed with a chuckle and Carlisle laughed

"I swear one of these days, her credit card is gonna blow up or catch on fire from too many uses" my father laughed

"I heard that" Alice yelled from the living room while my brothers laughed, they were shopping themselves, apparently they bought out Target's online store for anything sports related.

In a few weeks there would be a hockey net, a mini basketball net to go on the door and another for outside, footballs, hockey sticks, various balls, kites, model plane kits, you name it they ordered it. My brothers were going to be the best uncles and I was thankful for them both, for all of them.

I left my family downstairs and went to my room to listen to some music just to pass away the time till I could be with my family again.

I was on my way to Bella's, I wanted to run but thought better of it, no need to throw my supernatural side at Charlie all at once, so I drove instead. As I got out of the car I could hear my family's heartbeats inside, they were like magnets, and they drew me in wherever I was.

I realized that it started with Bella that cold scary night, her heartbeat lured me in and it was exactly the same way once I heard my son's heartbeat for the first time when he was still in Bella's womb.

I had to smile as I walked up the door, EJ was excited and my heart leapt as he asked

"Mommy when's daddy gonna be here?"

"Soon baby, I would say he will be here any minute" Bella answered

I decided to put his little mind at ease as he was getting a little impatient and knocked on the door. The door opened and I felt like I should drop to my knees at the goddess before me.

My Bella was so beautiful and I loved her so much, her love for me was written all over her face and I held back a chuckle as her heart pounded and her breath hitched.

"DADDY!" EJ squealed as he jumped into my arms and wrapped his little arms around my neck.

"There's my little man, I missed you, did you have fun with mommy and grandpa?" I asked him trying to keep the overwhelming emotion out of my voice but I could see that Bella had noticed it.

I walked over to her still holding EJ and wrapped my free arm around her.

I inhaled her heavenly scent as I placed a kiss to her temple and told her how much I missed her and how much I loved her.

Again her heart was beating quite fast and I held back my chuckle as our son started to giggle. I could see what he was about to say and I had to bite the inside of my cheek to keep from losing it.

"What are you giggling about?" I asked tickling him

"Daddy stop, hehehehe! Mommy's heart sounded like a humming bird, it always does whenever Mommy sees you" EJ stated, god I loved him with a sickness

"Alright mister that's enough, time for your bath and to get ready for bed" Bella told him

with what I'm sure was supposed to be a stern voice but I could see the amusement all over her face

She was trying so hard not to laugh and I should have tried to help her but it didn't work; between Bella's heart still beating wildly and EJ still giggling, well I lost it. I started to laugh and Bella couldn't help but join me.

"Alright little man, Mommy is right, go on upstairs and we'll be there in a few minutes to run your bath and then off to bed mister" I told him, he had a schedule and we always tried to stick to it

"Will you and Mommy read me a bed time story daddy?" EJ asked just before going upstairs and I was confused, we always read to him before bed, he wouldn't sleep without a story; he loved books as much as his mother

"Of course buddy, me and your mom always do that together" I told him

"Yeah but I want you and mommy to read me a story together every night and you couldn't be there every night and mommy would cry and then we had to leave auntie and uncle and Renee was so mean, she wouldn't let me call her Nana" my son started to sob and I immediately picked him back up again and wrapped my arms around both him and his mother. His little mind was remembering something about a dark haired woman, she kinda looked like Bella but older and her hair was shorter and lighter, this must have been Renee and EJ's thoughts were fearful every time her thought of her.

I wasn't going to bring up what happened in Phoenix just yet but seeing the fear in my son's thoughts, well I would have to ask Bella about them tonight, I needed to ease his fears of my leaving again.

So I cuddled him closer and told that there would be no more leaving, that the three of us would be together from here on. Once this silly high school charade was over; well than Bella, EJ and I would move away with my family and start a new chapter in our lives.

That seemed to satisfy him and I chuckled as he ran upstairs to get his bath stuff. I looked at my Bella who was just shaking her head and biting her lip, she seemed worried yet amused at the same time that I couldn't help but tease her about the rapid beating of her heart knowing exactly why it did that.

I wrapped my arms around her waist from behind and whispered in her ear "Oh my love I've missed you so much and believe me Bella I know exactly what I do to you and I assure you the feeling is mutual love"

I couldn't resist her anymore so I turned around so she was facing me and kissed her hard. I loved her with every fibre of my being and I poured it all into that kiss.

Our moment was cut short when my son EJ came flying down the stairs completely naked and jumped on my back yelling "Giddy up Daddy"

I shook my head loving the sound of my Bella's giggle and then grabbed my son from off my back and held him up by his legs so he was upside down. He was laughing so hard and it just made him squeal even louder, one of my favorite sounds.

"Okay spider monkey, time for a bath". I told him playfully while tickling him upside down, his little mind begging me to stop.

I led him upstairs only to turn around to find catch her checking out my butt. I laughed a little and then chuckled saying "You're so busted love" but she just shrugged as she walked past me up the stairs telling me to sue her that my behind was apparently too nice not to stare at it and again I laughed still carrying my son upside down as he giggled all the way to the tub.

I stood in the laundry room laughing as I heard Bella try to get EJ in to his pyjamas, he was so excited he couldn't sit still and he may have been still a little wound up from his bath. EJ usually didn't cause much of a mess at bath time but tonight he soaked his mother and I with his splashing and squealing. He was just so excited to have me here, to have both his parents around again. I never realized how much he missed me. I always thought my feelings were a little one sided. Being a vampire meant we felt things more and humans couldn't feel the same way; I was wrong. Bella and EJ both felt the same amount of love for me that I felt for them.

I shook my head as I remembered almost losing control; EJ had soaked us of course and I looked up at Bella only to see the most sexiest thing ever; my Bella was wearing a white shirt, soaked and I could see her nipples pert and just begging for my mouth, my hands, I was going to go mad.

I had been fighting my desire for her for so long, I knew she wanted me, my sense told me so but I never wanted to put her an uncomfortable situation so I held my desire back slightly. Now staring at her like that, I was so close to losing control till my son splashed me bringing me out of my lust, thank god! I really didn't want to lose control in front of our son.

Bella looked down to see what I had been staring at and gave me a cheeky grin as she walked out saying she was going to change while I finished up EJ's bath.

"I love you daddy" EJ smiled up at me and my eyes prickled with the tears that wouldn't come

"I love you too buddy" I told him kissing his head and then washed his hair

Bella finally came back in with a dry shirt on and EJ held up his arms to get him out of the tub so I lifted him out and gave him to Bella who was waiting with a big fluffy towel. My mind was still on Bella's breasts so I kissed them both and told Bella I would go start some laundry and I really needed to throw my shirt in the dryer.

As a vampire; we really didn't care about the feeling of our clothes but I didn't want to sit around in wet shirt and I needed a distraction so I walked out of the bathroom and downstairs to see Charlie on the phone

"Yeah Tom, I got it, yeah be down soon, no I get it. No I don't mind, Tom I'm the chief, it's my job. I'll be there shortly" his mind was actually closed to me so I couldn't tell what was going on but it didn't seem like anything too bad

"Hey son, soaked ya huh" he said gesturing to my shirt and I nodded while he chuckled

"Yeah Bells did that on occasion, listen I gotta head down to the diner, Tom believes there may be a break in, probably some stupid kid on drugs looking for a place to hold up for the night. Can you stay here till I get back?" he asked

"You can count on me sir" I told him

He shook my hand and then left and I went to throw my shirt in the dryer.

As I threw my shirt in with a load that had been in the washer I couldn't help but laugh at what my family was doing upstairs. Bella was trying to dress our son but he was fidgeting from excitement and wouldn't settle down so she could put him in his pyjamas. My son's mind was filled with what story he wanted read, he thought of all his favorites but I knew which one he would pick.

I turned on the dryer and left to go back upstairs, my heart just couldn't take being separated from them anymore.

I leaned in the doorway just watching for a minute as Bella tried to get EJ's arm in through the sleeve of his pyjama top. She looked up to me as she did this and her jaw dropped. I was perplexed for a minute, why was she looking at me like that?

Her eyes darkened for a second and her scent got a little stronger. I forgot that I didn't have shirt on and I couldn't resist smirking at her for her apparent ogling. She flushed in embarrassment, my shy girl but don't think I didn't catch her licking her lips beforehand. Bella sometimes didn't know just how sexy she was. When I met her she was only 15, she was so tiny and still very much a girl. Now at 17 she was anything but. She was still tiny but more curvaceous, her breasts were bigger, her waist was slimmer and her hips just begged to be grabbed. She resembled the ladies from my time which was a huge attraction for me but besides that, my Bella was just good. She was kind and loving and mine.

"Mommy your heart is beating really fast again" EJ giggled

It was indeed beating at an accelerated rate and I may have puffed my chest out in pride that it was me that sent her heart into overdrive and that it was me that she gave it too.

"How about that story huh" Bella huffed effectively changing the subject as she helped EJ get into bed while I looked for his favorite book.

The Cat in the Hat had been EJ's favorite since the first time we read it to him, Bella hated the book but I didn't care if I had to read it until it fell apart in my hands, if he wanted it he would get it.

"I found it" I said watching as Bella rolled her eyes and EJ bounced in his bed resembling Alice for a minute

I took my place on the bed opposite of Bella while my son snuggled his way into my side as I read from his book. Honestly I could have told it without the book but my son like the pictures and I loved watching Bella stroke his head as he listened to us. It was one of the first traditions we did when he was an infant and one I hoped would continue until he told us to stop.

I couldn't help but laugh as Bella cursed the book as she came downstairs. EJ insisted on having it read again and I finally put my foot down after the third time. He agreed and fell asleep to his mom humming some tune in her head. It wasn't that he didn't want to go to sleep; he had been fighting it to spend more time with me but as I kissed him goodnight I promised him I would be here in the morning.

"Bella my love, even if you were able to lose that book he would only sweet talk his aunts, uncles or his grandparents into buying him another copy or use his pout to convince us to buy him a new one and we'd cave anyways. Can't win love don't even try" I told her while pulling her down with me onto the couch

She burrowed into my chest and I sighed in contentment. I was so happy but there was something else that needed to be said

"And just for the record, the next time you move it will be with me and my family. Now love would you kindly tell me what possessed you to come live here? It's not that I'm not happy to have you both so close, but you and EJ loved it in Alaska so forgive me if I seem confused" I said

I heard her inhale sharply but then she got up from my lap. I thought for sure she was going to tell me something but she started talking some nonsense about a movie. It was bad, I could feel it.

She sighed in resignation and then told me the sordid tale; how they left Alaska after her mom begged her to come back. Then she told me how Renee just became more irate the longer she was there, how she ignored EJ and then threw a fit when he tried to call Nana. She hit my son, SHE HIT MY SON! I wanted to fly to Phoenix and end her. How dare she lay a hand on my son and upset my family.

I knew my eyes had to be black with anger, my face clearly in a rage and I tried to calm it so I wouldn't scare my angel.

"Edward, are you okay" she asked me

Was I okay? HELL NO! But I had to be for her, how was I supposed to tell her about all the murderous thoughts I had, how I wanted to fly or hell I'd run and strangle her mother for even thinking ill of my family let alone touching my son. She would regret the day she was born when I would be done with her.

On the other hand she was Bella's mother and without her I wouldn't have Bella or EJ. Alright so I wouldn't kill her, maybe go down there and scare her or make herself think she was crazy so she would have to go into a mental institution. Too much? Maybe but those were just some of the feelings running through my head.

"Please say something, you're scaring me" Bella whimpered

I forgot my anger for the moment and wrapped her in my arms. I inhaled her lovely scent letting it calm me down and tried to answer her. I didn't want to scare her but she needed to know the truth.

"You won't like it my love, she may be your mother, but she hit my son, no one hurts either of you and gets away with it" I growled a little

"Edward as much as I appreciate your willingness to defend us it's not necessary, we're here, you're here and that's all that matters. Please my love, just forget it. You work so hard to ignore your natural instincts on a daily basis and I don't want you to mess that up all because of my stupid mother" she sighed with a hint of desperation

"Besides after the slap and push I gave her, she'll know better than to mess with me next time" she growled

I couldn't help my response to her, just hearing her growl was a sure fire way to turn me on "Hmmm, have I ever told you what the sound of your growling does to me?" I purred in her ear my voice dripping with lust

I tried to contain it and I was mostly successful over the last two years but having her here so close and knowing that there was no leaving this time and I wasn't blind, my Bella had grown into the most beautiful woman which was only enhanced by the venom lingering in her veins.

I couldn't help it, a century worth of explicit thoughts were running the gambit in my mind and I never wanted them until I met her, now I just couldn't seem to contain them and the more time I spent with her the more I wanted to bring some of them to light.

I just couldn't help it as my lips skimmed across her collarbone, her scent already perfuming the air with her arousal.

I found myself purring as my hands skimmed the edge of her shirt and slowly pushed it up her silky stomach and I definitely couldn't help the smile that graced my face as she shivered while my fingers danced across her skin.

I knew I should have slowed down, for one I wasn't sure if she was really ready for this, her past alone was reason enough for that and my rational brain had enough sense to know that I definitely did not want to make love to here on the couch with our son upstairs.

But as I stared at her deep brown pools full of love and trust, her arousal surrounding me and her little fingers working their way under my shirt, well I couldn't remember why I should care.

"Paranoid old fool, I swear he thinks that every little sound is a burglar. Brought me all the way out there for a damn raccoon tripping the sensor" Charlie's thoughts invaded my mind and it was like a cold bucket of water on my libido

I sat up suddenly and moved to the end of the couch. Bella sat up, her face flushed, shirt dishevelled and her lips swollen from our kissing and it took everything in me to not start all over with her.

I told her that Charlie was on the way and I had to hold my laugh in as she went from ravished to mortified just like that. She ran to the kitchen while I ran to get my shirt. I made it back to the couch just in time to see Charlie walk in the door.

"Chief, how did it go?" I asked politely and I could see Charlie looking around his thoughts wondering if he interrupted anything

"Damn waste of time, it was a false alarm" he said while hanging up his coat

"How'd bed time go?" he asked and I could see he was looking forward to them all

"Great, we played, he took a bath and we read him a story before bed, oh there was the little incident where he ran down here stark naked and jumped on my back" I told him laughing

"Yeah Bells did that once or twice, couldn't keep her clothes on as a toddler and it was worse when she learned how to take her diaper off" he laughed

Damn did he have to put Bella and naked in the same sentence? My pants grew tight and I felt like a complete ass praying that my cock would stay down. No need for the Chief to see this.

Bella finally came back in to find us laughing and after a brief conversation the chief said "Bells you got a good guy there, Edward you're welcome here anytime, now if you two will excuse me I'm going to kiss my grandson goodnight and then I'm going to bed, goodnight you two, Bella I'll see ya in the morning sweetheart"

I was shocked at his words and I felt slightly embarrassed by his compliment, I wasn't a good guy, not really but I did love his daughter and grandson and that alone would make me good.

Shortly after Bella followed me to the car and asked what I had said to make Charlie so happy, I told her noting really, just about our son streaking and I couldn't help tease her about her doing the same thing which again led me into dangerous territory as I alluded to wanting to see her naked.

"Well if you play your cards right and be a good boy then you might just get a treat" she said, her voice husky and walked back towards the house

She turned back towards me and I'm sure my jaw was on the floor, she really had no idea what she had unleashed. And like a man unhinged I had her in my arms and around the back of the house in the shadows before she could blink.

"God Bella, you can't say things like that to me. If your father and our son weren't asleep in that house right now, my love I'm trying to be a gentleman here and you're making it rather hard" I choked out, my control hanging by a thread

She had a mischievous look on her face and I realized what I had said so I put my fingers against her lips to hush her and then seized her lips in a kiss.

I may have kissed her harder than I ever dared but her little gasp of surprise and her moan just egged me on but I broke it off a bit quick before I took her against the house.

I gave her a quick kiss telling her I'd be by in the morning and that we were going shopping. We had always done a family day in Alaska when we could but we always had to be so careful and now we didn't and I wanted to show my family off to all of Washington but I would settle for Port Angeles.

I kissed her once more and headed to my car to at least try to wait patiently for the morning to come and as I laid upon my newly ordered bed that Esme had rushed down from the nearest furniture store, I realized that I was no longer a cursed being but the luckiest man on earth.

Okay so whatcha think? Love it, hate it! Let me know

Alright shameless promoting time, if you're not following drotuno or Jenrar that I recommend you head on over to their ffn. Their story "In pursuit" is awesome, it's not done yet but is a tense but so far a good read.

Also look for the angel series on Drotuno's site, she's magic I swear and I'm sure the woman has made my laptop melt with some of her lemons.

Thanks again to everyone and see ya next chapter.
