A/N: I'm happy to see that everyone liked the last chapter. I worked hard, but quick. I'm aiming to get to that specific length of the chapters. So, that's a good thing xD I had a bit of a writers' block near the end, so forgive me for that. Give me one more week and I'll make things more interesting. Thanks to Kayla for editing : )

Chapter 7 − Sexual Frustrations
"I'll see you later tonight," Rosalie said as she parked the car. "Emmett's treating us to dinner, so I suspect to see you there." I nodded as I stepped out of the car.
"Bye, Rosalie. Thanks again for lunch." She threw me a smile and headed to her own class, myself as well.
The day passed slow. I did my test, studied for some other things and barely conversed with some of the people in my classes.
I was excited for tonight. I had the excuse of dressing myself better than I was used to. I wanted to impress him.
I basically danced home with a goofy smile on my face. Maybe I was just so happy that I wasn't exactly a prude much. I mean, I got licked for crying out loud! Or maybe it was the excitement that was surging through my veins.
When I got home, I practically ran to my bedroom and looked through all of my clothes. My clothes were strewed around everywhere; the floor, on my bed, my lamp. The dressiest thing I picked out was a magenta printed halter dress, that showed enough cleavage that my breasts were popping out. I topped that off with brown strappy heels and a small brown bag.
I used some of the limited make up that I had and even searched my laptop for some nice hair styles. By the time six-forty-five rolled around, the distraction of my homework just wasn't helping.
The door erupted with a knock and I jumped in surprise, my heart accelerating, thinking it was Drawde. I opened the door instantly lit my face. "Hi," I said, trying to hide the awe in my voice.
"Hello, Bella. You look…," he stopped to look me up and down, his eyes darkening as they planted right onto the cleavage that was showing, "…Very nice. Are you going out?"
"Not exactly. I'm a girl, I like to dress up, you know?" Drawde laughed.
"On the contrary, I would have never pegged you for a 'Dress-Up' kind of girl." I shrugged and moved, allowing him inside. He walked over to the couch and smiled, waving me over.
I maneuvered my way to the couch, sitting down gently, staring at his flawless face. "So," I said, my voice strained, "Mind me asking why you showed up here?"
Drawde shrugged. "Well, Emmett's taking the family out to dinner tonight. And I thought it was right to invite you. Esme already thinks of you as family. She adores you," he said. I smiled. I really liked Esme. She was a kind and unselfish person that was nothing but compassionate. "So, I'm here to whisk you off your feet and take you to dinner. What do you say? Will you join me?" he asked, staring at me.
My breath hitched as I stared back. "Yeah, sure," I said, keeping it short. His soft lips broke out into a crooked grin, and I could feel my soul leave my body.
Drawde stood up, holding out his hand to me. I placed my clammy, shaking one into his and gripped it tight, hoisting myself up. "Shall we?"
"We shall."
Drawde pulled up to a nice restaurant, called La Cantina. I could hear soft music coming from inside the restaurant, calming my jumpy nerves. By the door, stood little Alice Cullen in a black sparkly dress and a mini white fur cardigan. Her hair was in it's original spikes and her make-up was touched up nicely. She waved excitedly as she saw Drawde get out of his car and come to my side.
"Bella!" Alice squealed, running to me in her heels and wrapping her arms around me, "I'm so glad you came!"
"Alice," Drawde sighed beside me, "Calm down." Alice unwrapped her arms and went over to Drawde, reaching up to flick his ear.
"Silly brother, you need some spunk in your life. I suggest you get some, before you shrivel up and die as a cold, boring prune." I covered my mouth from laughing.
Drawde sighed and rolled his eyes, pushing Alice by her shoulders lightly. "Shouldn't you be someplace, Ali? Annoying Jasper or something?" Alice laughed.
"Nope. He's on his phone, so I came out here to wait for you two."
"That was very nice of you," Drawde said, "Now leave us be."
Alice rolled her eyes and walked back inside the restaurant, leaving a stressed Drawde and myself in a state of laughter.
"She's so annoying at times," he said, more to himself. He looked at me and his eyes brightened.
"She's funny though," I giggled. He grabbed my hand and led me into the restaurant.
Just that action alone made my body perk up, feeling the spark rush through my veins. I gripped his hand a bit tighter, not wanting to let the spark go away. I wanted it to stay between us forever, to be there each time we touched.
He looked down at me, and smiled a lazy smile. I grinned back. He could feel the rush in him too, and that made me happy.
The waitress by the front set her eyes on me first, soon flickering to Drawde. Her blue eyes darkened with lust, and her eyes ran over his body.
Blood rushed to my cheeks and I was left in a sour mood. This always happened each time we were together. The women around us would always stare at him like a piece of chocolate, wanting to just eat him up. It hurt. There were women who were more exotic than I was, mind you, I had to admit, when I wanted to, I could be pretty. But no, it wasn't that. It was that those type of women, suited best for him.
He was fun, and wild and mysterious and funny, and the list goes on… But he was everything that a girl could ever want. He could be funny and so sweet out in public, but alone? The compassion that he poured out for you alone could make you fall in love with him. And I was falling for him already. Hard.
"Bella? Earth to Bella?" Drawde waved a hand in my face, smiling as I came back down from thinking and not paying attention.
"Sorry, what happened?" I looked around and saw Rosalie and Alice sitting across from me. Their spouses on either side of them. "Oh, hey guys," I said sheepishly, embarrassed that they were watching for God knows how long.
"What would you like to drink?" Drawde asked me. I took a quick peek at the menu, ordering just a Coke.
The waitress came back, handing out our drinks. I took a long sip of mine, realizing that all that thinking made me really thirsty.
"Bella, we should hang out some time! How about we go shopping together this week?" Alice asked me, grinning.
"Do we have to? I mean, I don't hate shopping, but it's not my favorite thing to do," I said, hoping she would catch the meaning.
"Yes, we have to. We need to bond some more. And what better way to bond, then to go shopping?"
"Go to lunch – "
"Ah, ah, ah. You have a food court in the mall, we can eat lunch there." Her grin widened, realizing from a mile that she won.
"You're not going to win with Alice," Drawde whispered into my ear. I sighed and nodded to Alice.
"Pick me up whenever." She squealed and clapped, making the table erupt with laughter.
"Well, if that's over, I say we start ordering. I'm famished," Emmett said, his nose already in the menu, scanning.
Rosalie rolled her eyes. "When aren't you?" she asked.
"Good point."
Dinner was really fun. I don't think there was a time where I had that much fun eating dinner.
Alice and Rosalie both planned to take me shopping, and we watched as Emmett and Jasper sang a duet together.
It was late, and my feet hurt like hell. Bless God Drawde was driving me home. I don't think I could have lasted another minute standing in these ridiculous heels.
Drawde pulled up to where I lived and turned off the car. He got out and helped me out as well. "Did you have a fun time?" he asked me, looking at me.
I held his hand, walking into the lobby and by the elevator. I smiled. "Yes, I had an excellent time. What about you?" He shrugged. We stepped inside and I pressed my floor, looking back at him.
"I usually go to those things each week, so it's a bit of a repeat. But…there was something different," he commented, cocking his head to the side. We reached my floor, and were now slowly walking to my door.
"Something different?" I watched as he leaned forward, staring at my lips and back to my eyes.
"Yes, something very different. I think it was you." Before I could say anything, his lips soon covered mine. Fireworks, explosions, cheering went off in my head. My lips moved in a needy way, signaling him that I wanted more.
His hands grabbed my hips roughly, as I ran my hands through his hair. My tongue flicked out, rubbing against his bottom lip furiously.
He gripped me harder and sighed as our tongues touched and danced together. "Oh, God, Bella," he murmured. I moaned as his hands ran higher, reaching my breasts and brushing against the side of them. "I need you so bad."
The alarm rang in my head. I'd watched enough movies, read enough books, actually seen it in public, that there was only thing that meant: sex. My heart thudded and flipped.
I pulled away, gasping his he bit me on the side of my neck.
I couldn't do this now. It didn't feel right. Well, it did. I mean, it'd be with the right person, but not the right time. I did and didn't want to stop this.
I hoped for anything. Just a distraction of sorts or something that would leave me enough time to calm down.
As if on cue, his cell phone rang. We both froze, and he looked down to his vibrating pocket. He sighed and pulled away from me, answering his phone. Sighing, I put a hand to my heart and tried to gasp in as much air as I could to clear my head.
He spent a good seven minutes on his phone, leaving me more time to search for my keys, check my phone and work out a phone bill in my head.
Drawde looked back to me, his dark eyes raking over my body. He sighed and hung his head. "I'm sorry, Bella," he apologized, looking back at me. "One of the actors are sick and I need to file in for them. I'm really sorry."
I shook my head and my hand lightly touched his cheek. "It's fine," I sort of lied, "Go. I'll see you tomorrow?" He nodded and left with one more kiss.
Sighing myself, I walked into my apartment and quickly took off my shoes. I sighed as I felt the cool marble underneath my feet.
I walked over to get myself a glass of wine and sat back down on my couch, closing my eyes and trying to figure out what the hell just happened.
I soon found myself drifting off, still in my clothes and glass of wine still full. I curled up and fell asleep, trying to dream of the scenario if Drawde and I were to actually have sex.
And it was fucking good, fears aside, that is.
A/N: I don't think I'm ready to explain more as to why Bella's afraid of sex. That'll either come in next chapter or the chapter after that. That being said, Drawde has some secrets of his own that he'd like to tell Bella. So tune in for that! As you can tell from the length, I got kind of lazy and couldn't think much. I guess it's the fact that school is ending this Friday! Woohoo! Thanks to Kayla for editing! And thanks to everyone who reads, reviews, and all that other cool stuff. Tune in next week for the next chapter : D
