Thank you for the reviews. But I would like to point something out to all of you. I accidentally said 60 reviews, okay? I put in the summary; IN CHAPTER 6 I MEANT 50! Okay? I was a little PO that, it seems, nobody seemed to notice. Here's another chapter!
"Hello Bella," two voices said. Carlisle and Esme. I jumped up and gave them each hugs. I missed them. They were like my second parents. Jasper started smiling because of the warmth and happiness we were giving off.
"Bella," Sam said, "it seems that they all have something to tell you." I looked at her quizzically.
"One or two," Alice said, smirking. "Tink," I whined.
"Tink?"
"Yes that is your new nickname!" I said, cheerily. She grinned. I went to sit by my coven.
"Bella, we need to tell you something. And before we say it, we need you to promise to stay calm and not run, that is why Emmet is sitting on your legs," Rose smirked at the last part. It was true, I was sitting on the floor with my legs in front of me. Emmet had come and sat on top of them. It was hilarious, I had to admit. I worried about what they were going to tell me. It sounded like they were going to tell me something depressing.
"Okay, what are you going to tell me or ask me?" I finally said, after a deadening silence.
"When we left, Bella, you have to understand that we left for a reason," Esme started to explain, Uh-oh. I knew where this was going. They were all going to try and convince me that what Edward had said in the woods was not true. Pssh, sure. I nodded. Edward took up the explanation then.
"Bella, what I said then, was a complete lie. After what happened at your birthday, I realized that I was putting you in too much danger. I talked to Carlisle about it, and he said that whatever I thought was right for you. So I announced that we were leaving. They all threw a fit, saying I was stupid and "something wasn't right in my head" which came from Emmet. I never wanted this for you. I didn't want you to be damned to an existence like this. Yet here you are, listening to my pathetic explanation for leaving you. I know that I left you in pieces. You have to believe me when I say I never thought that would happen. I thought and wanted you to move on and find someone that was right for you. When I said I didn't love you, it was the worse sin that I had ever committed; the deepest blasphemy ever. I do love you, more than anything. Could you ever forgive me?"
That was the sweetest thing I had ever heard. By the end of his speech I was hugging Teddy Bear so tight I thought I might actually break him. Edward stared at me, waiting for an answer. His eyes were filled with sadness and hope, all at once. So many emotions shined in his amber eyes. I had believed him. The hole that I thought I had closed in my heart long ago had reopened. And his words tore it apart, and sealed it up again. He did love me. I was thinking this through, slowly for a vampire. Everyone's eyes boring into me from all angles, waiting and watching.
I opened my mouth, but no sound was to leave my lips. How I wanted to press my lips to his for the first time in centuries, not having any boundaries. Teddy Bear then said, "Bella, can you let go? You really do have a strong hold." I realized that I had been staring back into Edward's eyes with such intenseness that I forgot I was squeezing Emmet. I chuckled and released him. I genuinely smiled, for the first time in years. Jake noticed.
"You made her smile again! Genuinely smile! Praise the Lord!" Jake yelled. I giggled again. I had gotten so caught up in my actual state of joy and understanding that I forgot about an answer. "Oh yeah, sorry about that. I'm just so happy right now."
Jasper said, "I can tell. She truly is feeling so much happiness right now."
Edward got up and stood over me, smiling. I grasped his hand and got up. I sighed as I turned around to face him. "I never stopped loving you either. I still do. And yes, I can," I said as I hugged him. I would have just about attacked him with passionate kisses but everyone else was still in the room. He held to me like there was no tomorrow for us. It felt like it. We actually got applauds from both of our covens. I didn't know which one I belonged to, truly.
"This brings me to our next topic. We have invited them all into our coven. Is that alright?" Sam asked. "Hell yes!"
"There is one thing I ask of you, Edward. Can you forgive me?"
"For what, love?"
"I bit you today remember?" He lifted his hand from my back.
"Yes I can. I understand why you did it though. But you put a hell of a lot of venom into this." He smiled while stating this. Good, I thought, he's already joking about it.
"I truly am sorry," I said. "I know," he said.
"Oh Bella," Alice called, sing-songey. "Yes?"
"We still have a question. What is on your back?" I bit my lip. Come on, Alice! Edward and I had sat back down on the floor, me in his lap with my head on his shoulder. Just like old times. His hand snaked down my back to where my tattoo was.
"It's a tattoo. I got it before I was changed. No big thing."
"Well we think it is. Can't you get it removed?"
"Nope. I actually tried to once. Nothing can penetrate our skin and it can't be removed, since it's part of my skin now. Besides, I like it."
The rest of the night went peacefully. We spent time catching up and playing around until 6 AM. I spent the whole night in Edward's arms, his hand lightly stroking my hair. We whispered "I love you" every now and then, and the same reply would come. We were now a coven of 10. Wouldn't the Volturi get suspicious and pay us a visit? I put it out of my mind. I shouldn't have.

Sam, Jake, and I were going to move in with the Cullens, seeing as we are a big coven now. After we became a coven, I still haven't gotten my new powers yet. Once we move in, I will. There is this weird thing where I have to be in the same residence as the new parts of my coven to get their powers first. Strange I know.
Everyone, including Jake and Sam, went back to our new house, except for Edward. We wanted some alone time. Once they were out of hearing range, I turned in his arms to look at him. We stared into each others eyes for who knows how long. It was the weekend. The joy to have me with him again was evident in his eyes, as was mine. We inched closer to each other until our cold, to each other, warm, noses touched. Our eyes never broke apart from the other. My breathing had become irregular as I anticipated what was to happen next.
"You don't know how much joy has entered me from you being with me again," he whispered. I smiled and replied, "I feel the same way."
I was still in his lap. Our lips found each other and we kissed. It turned to be way more. We had no boundaries anymore. His tongue pricked at my lips, wanting entrance. I granted it, letting his tongue explore. The tips touched and the same electricity I felt years and years ago came back with a new passion and level. We had gone into full blown make out. His hand traced up my back until he found the back of my neck. My hand slid to his back as the other hand knotted in his hair.
He knocked me over to my back, leaving me stunned as our lips broke apart.
"I love you, Edward," I said. "I love you, Isabella," he replied, using my full first name. I loved the way it sounded coming from him. He had come on top of me, capturing my hands in one of his. They were above my head. With his other hand, he slid it under my shirt to trace my sides. My hands wanted to trace the plains of his stomach badly. I struggled to break his grasp, but he held it firm. I lifted my head off the ground to peck his cheek, teasing. He turned his head and found my lips again. His grip loosened and I slid my hands out coyly. I flipped us over as I pulled his shirt off over his head. He was stunning as always. I marveled at his chest before I made my way back to his lips. He quickly pulled my shirt off and traced my bra line. My breath hitched in my throat. I came down and lay on his chest for a second. I heard a metal click. I hadn't noticed him move my hands, as I was caught up in the moment. He smiled. He had pulled my hands behind me and clicked handcuffs around them. I knew that I could break these, and he knew it also. But he wanted fun.
So I gave it to him. That was the day I made love to Edward Cullen.
I know this is short! I'm sorry but this is what I can post before Christmas! I hope that it helps the wait! Please review! I would like, oh, maybe 95 reviews before the next chapter is posted? Please? I love ya'll!
