AN: I am in the zone, hopefully I will have one more for you today…it's a public holiday here in Australia so no work woo hoo!

Thanks as usual to you all for reading.

Disclaimer: Don't own Twilight, aren't SM, If I was Bella would have chosen Jacob for shiz. And I wouldn't have let them use those wigs for Rose and Jasper.


Ch 7 Assassin

You get in, you get done and then you get gone
You never leave a trace, or show your face, you get gone
Should've turned around and left before the sun came up again
But the sun came up again

I stood inside the shop waiting to buy my cigarettes and looked out at Bella still on the street looking at handbags. I have to confess, I am feeling rather a smug bastard at the moment, she did effectively choose me over Jacob. Half of my mission is complete, now I just have to get her to have sex with me, shouldn't be too hard.

We were both feeling a little empty after seeing the memorial, it always has that affect on me though, nothing a jungle juice can't fix. I walked back out to Bella and took her hand in mine.

"I really feel strange going out and partying after being at the memorial, it just doesn't seem right" She said as she looked back down the street at the stone monument.

"I thought that the first time I came here, but the thing is the people that died were doing exactly what were doing and if we stop coming to Bali and going to their restaurants and clubs then Bali dies and the terrorist win."

"I guess you're right, fuck terrorism!" Bella declared making me laugh, she is such a baffling little creature, I find her so fascinating, I know that as soon as I sleep with that will all be over, it always is. Believe it or not I do want a girlfriend, it's just that I am yet to find someone that makes me want to see them for more than a week or a night.

The other four had stopped dancing and were sitting back in the booths, Bella hesitated slightly before walking back over to them, I signalled to our waiter to get us two more jungle juices. I didn't really have an issue with Jacob other than he was simply in my way, he actually seemed like a pretty nice guy. Sam also seemed pretty cool, Leah hated my guts but I am assuming that has more to do with Jacob than me personally. Lauren well, Lauren is your typical tart, great fun, you'd definitely take her home for a one night stand but you would never ever consider actually dating her.

"Where the fuck have you two been? You missed me tear an asshole out of the podium." Lauren slurred as Bella and I took a seat around the table, I made sure to keep my distance from her the last thing I needed was to rub it in Jacobs face and end up with a black eye, that kid is huge.

"We went for a walk down to the bombing memorial. You guys should check it out, it's so sad, where the Sari club was is an empty paddock they are never going to rebuild on it. Also there are all these tributes to those that died."

"Actually a girl I went to school with died in the attack, Sam do you mind if we go for a walk I wouldn't mind checking it out" Leah asked Sam. Jacob obviously not wanting to be stuck with Bella and I tagged along with them and naturally Lauren followed. When the group had well and truly left I picked up Bella's hand and started tracing patterns on it. A girl I was with once told me that it is highly erotic when a man massages your hand. I had never really needed to test it out before.

We sat and finished our drinks, Bella was watching the antics on the dance floor, there are two extremely drunk girls trying to climb up on the bar being assisted by a group of shirtless guys, it seemed to amuse Bella immensely. Every now and then Bella would glance over at me and a smirk would pull at the corner of her mouth, she would then shake her head and turn back to the dance floor. What I would give to know what is going in her mind.

A chord progression rang out through the club that is recognisable to anyone who has listened to the radio in past year. Bella leapt to her feet and dragged me up with her to the dance floor which had re-ignited with the screams of all the women in the room. Bella started moving her body to the music, it was like nothing I had seen before, she closed her eyes and let the music pulsate through her body.

I moved up behind her and placed my hands on her hips, she instantly lent back into my chest, as the verse started I sung the words into her ear.

Lay where you're laying.

Don't make a sound

I know they're watching, they're watching

All the commotion

The kiddie like play

Has people talking, talking

At the chorus Bella threw her hands up into the air in what could possibly be the sexiest thing I have ever seen, made sexier by the pure fact that she didn't intend for it to be. I wanted to pick her up, carry her to a cab and she would be lucky if I could restrain myself until we got back to the hotel.

I notice the eyes of the guys around me on Bella as she dances in complete abandon, a rage burned from deep within me, I want to tear their bodies apart and burn the pieces. This feeling is so foreign to me, I have never been jealous or possessive of anything before, especially not a chick.

I tried hard to ignore them and focus only on Bella but that just made it worse, I knew the reaction she was creating in my body was replicated by the men around me, now I wanted to pick her up and take her home but for an entirely different reason and it frightens me somewhat.

After an agonising 2 more minutes the song finally finished and a remixed version of AC/DC came on, Bella stopped dancing immediately, taking my hand in hers and led me back to the seats, I could practically hear the groaning of the men around us over the music…that's right motherfuckers she's with me. I knew for certain that Sex on fire would forever remind me of Isabella Swan.

Before we sat she put her hand into my pocket and took out her cash ordering two vodka redbulls. This insistence on her paying was getting ridiculous, if she only knew how much money my family and I had, in saying that Charlie had to be worth a pretty penny, but that's not the point. How the fuck am I supposed to woo her if she insists on going dutch.

I sat in one of the single chairs and pulled her onto my lap, she turned her body into mine and placed her head on my shoulder. I fought an overwhelming urge to kiss the top of head, so to prevent myself I took out a cigarette and lit it. She lifted her head and leant into my ear.

"Why do you smoke?" This was a question that Esme asked me a million times, she hated me smoking with a passion and even tried to get me to go to hypnotherapy once.

"Don't really know, started when I was about 15 and have done it ever since. Does it bother you?" Why the fuck should I care if it bothered her…but I did.

"No not really, but I haven't really kissed you yet so I may hate it."

"Yet?" Maybe I am wooing her more than I thought. Even in this light and with her flushed skin from dancing I could see her blush. She bowed her head so that I couldn't see her eyes, I hate that she is so self-conscious. How can she not know how fucking hot she is? I placed my finger under her chin and lifted her head so she was looking at me. I placed a quick kiss on her lips, it took all the strength I possessed not full on make out with her.

"I fully plan on changing that when we get out of here and away from a 8foot 16 giant that wants to punch my face." The smile that lit up her face was extraordinary. You may now refer to me as Edward "The King of Woo" Cullen. She nuzzled back into my shoulder and this time I complied with the urge to kiss her forehead.

10 or so minutes later the others returned, poor old Jacob what a mistake he made kissing Lauren, she is a stage five clinger. She is trying to hold his hand and cuddle him and kiss him it's so pathetic. Bella had removed herself from my lap when we saw them walking back in although I'm certain that Jacob saw it, that kid is head and shoulders above the crowd he can fucking see everything, like a hawk.

We all ordered one more jungle juice, I was quite surprised that the girls were still functioning on a cognitive level with the amount they had consumed, although I think it is starting to get to Bella as she declined to dance when the girls asked and she had been sitting on that one juice for quite some time. As if to confirm my suspicions she leaned across the chair and whispered into my ear.

"Edward can we go home, I really need to lie down." There was no way I was getting any tonight, I would be lucky if she remained conscious all the way back to Nusa Dua. I stood and took her hand in mine helping her to her feet. Oh yeah, jungle juice has taken over the body of Bella Swan, I might have to carry her out.

"Jacob, I am going to take Bella home. Are you guy's right to get a cab back?" He looked at me as if I had just told him I had fucked his mother and sister…at the same time. He didn't respond verbally instead just nodded his head and then turned his attention to Bella, standing and whispering something in her ear.

"Yes Jacob, I promise" Bella replied slightly annoyed.

One of my favourite things about Bali is that you can get a cab within seconds of walking onto the street, within 25 minutes we were back at the resort, Bella had fallen asleep in the cab. I scooped her up into my arms and carried her back into the lobby. I didn't know where her room was so I would have to wake her, she is so beautiful when she's sleeping, she also talks in her sleep but is so drunk that it is inaudible mumbling.

"Bella, wake up. Bella" Her eyes flutter open.

"Edward, where are we, did I fall asleep at Paddy's?"

"No you fell asleep the second we got in the cab, we are back at the resort now. Which way is it to your room?"

"No Edward, please don't take me back yet, don't leave me." I bent my head down so that I could kiss her on the cheekbone, she is just so fucking cute. I walked her down to the beach to one of the day beds. She crawled out of my arms and sat opposite me slightly more awake now.

"Bella, what did Jake say to you before we left?" She thought to herself for a while before giggling.

"He made me promise that I wouldn't have sex with you tonight, but the funny thing is that Jake doesn't realise that I'm still a virgin…" Her reaction to what she said mimicked mine, both our mouths were hanging open. This really changes things. She squeezed her eyes shut and put her hands over her face hiding from me.

"Bella, why are you hiding from me?"

"I'm so embarrassed, I can't believe I told you that."

"It's nothing to be embarrassed about, believe it or not everyone was a virgin at some point." She laughed and removed her hands from her face. I don't know how I felt about this new information, part of me wanted to get up and walk away before I hurt her, I just didn't feel right about defiling her and then getting up in the morning and leaving like it meant nothing. Yet another part of me saw this as even more a challenge. I just was unsure at this stage as to which part was stronger.

"You must think I am such a loser, I mean I am 18 and haven't had sex."

"Bella I don't think you're a loser at all." That was the truth, other people I would have thought were losers, considering I lost mine at 15 but for some reason with Bella I found it endearing.

"Can I ask you a question Edward?"

"Yeah"

"How many people have you slept with?" I should have lied but I couldn't, not when she was being so open with me.

"To be honest Bella, I'm not really sure."

"What 20, 30, 50, 100?"

"I don't know maybe close to 50, I don't keep a list or anything"

"Oh Jesus." Her eyes bulged in her head and she covered her face again. I have always been proud of my sexual endeavours but right now I felt pretty ashamed. I took her hands in mine and removed them from her face.

"Put it this way, 90% of the those would have been one night stands so I have only had sex probably 70 or so times, where as people in a relationship have sex what say once every night. See it's not that much." Why am I justifying this to her?

"It's still 70 more times than me."

"Can I ask why? I mean you are incredibly beautiful so I'm assuming that it wasn't as if boys didn't want to. Are you waiting for marriage or something?" Coz that would really suck.

"No nothing like that, I don't know I guess I just never really found anyone that I wanted to do it with. I had a couple of boyfriends throughout school and stuff but they only last like a month or so."

"That's more than I have had. I have never dated a girl more than twice…well except for you."

"Technically we haven't even been on a date yet." She giggled.

"Technically yes, but if you added up the amount of time we've spent together that would be like 6 dates."

"So what you're saying is that it is time for me to put out." She laughed, god she is stunning, even when she is blind drunk and sweaty from dancing, in fact I think the sweat makes her hotter.

"No you dag, what I am saying is that this is the longest relationship I have ever had."

"We are in a relationship?"

"Aren't we?"

"I don't know Edward are we, can you be in a relationship before you go on a date?" She is such a cheeky bitch. I grabbed her face between my hands and kissed her. This time though I really kissed her, and instantly I regretted not having done it earlier. The spark that I feel when ever I touch her was magnified by a thousand. She made me want to completely consume her.

I grabbed her waist and pulled her onto my lap, I wrapped her legs around me and then ran my fingers up her back into her hair, she let out a moan that instantly translated into my pants. The kissing was so intense that if I didn't stop it now I wouldn't be able to. I broke the kiss and lifted Bella off my lap.

"Wow" she breathed as she laid down on her side facing me, I followed suit.

"If I don't stop now you won't be a virgin very much longer." She did that thing again that she was doing a Paddy's that smirk and the shake of her head.

"What's that Bella, why do you do that? I saw you doing it in Paddy's."

"What?"

"Smirking and shaking your head, you did it just then."

"I don't know, I guess I am just finding it hard to believe that you want to spend time with me. I have never ever had anyone as good looking as you pay any attention to me let alone want to take me on dates and kiss me." There's that self-conscious bull shit again.

"I mean what do you want from me Edward? Jacob seems to think you just want to fuck me, and if that's the case then I'm afraid you're wasting your time." What did I want from her? To fuck her, certainly, but did I want something else? Maybe. And what exactly is that something else?

"Bella, I don't just want to fuck you, I like spending time with you and I want to get to know you." I rolled onto my back, I needed to think without her clouding my judgement. What did I want? Has this gone past some stupid challenge that I set my self? I know that I like this chick but how much do I like her?

Bella moved over and put her head in the nook of my neck, curling her body into mine, I wrapped my arms around her. We lay there just listening to the water wash up the sand, neither of us saying anything and it was the most natural thing I have done in my life. I could feel Bella drifting off to sleep as her head got heavier on my chest. I kissed her forehead and closed my eyes.

"I really like you Edward, please don't break my heart" She whispered sleepily.

"I wont" I promised as I kissed her head again. And I wont.
