The Seduction of Edward
Chapter 7
E.p.o.v.
"I'm sorry sir, were completely booked for the next three weeks" the receptionist said sadly. I mentally kicked myself for not making reservations Sighing I turned to Bella.
"We could go somewhere else." she said sleepily.
She hadn't slept a wink on the flight. She had tried continuously, only to jolt awake moments after she succumbed. When I'd asked her what was wrong she just looked at me and told me it was just a dream. God! How I wished I could read her thoughts. My thoughts returned back to the present. I was staring down at Bella, her eyes red and puffy, her body seeming, if possible, more fragile then ever. I knew she needed sleep. Soon.
I turned my attention back to the receptionist who was still staring at me.
"You're sure you have absolutely nothing left." I said leaning forward to lean across the counter slightly. 'Desperate times call for desperate measures' I thought. As I spoke I could see the young girls eyes dilate and glaze over.
"Umm... Let me check one last time." she said hazily before looking down at the keyboard, typing quickly.
I looked at Bella again and my breath hitched in my throat. She was fully awake now and she looked...pissed. Her eyes vibrant and wide. Great, now I got myself in trouble. I attempted to smile at her but was interrupted by the now eager receptionist.
"I have a room sir, but im not sure if you'd want it."
"We'll take anything, thank you" I said breathing a sigh of relief.
"Umm sir, It's the honeymoon suit." she said frowning.
I looked to Bella again. The angry look on her face was gone. She stood there looking at me intently, her face unreadable. Great, not only do I have to worry about a repeat of what had happened in Bella's house, with Charlie downstairs I might add, but now I have to be alone with her in the honeymoon suit. Fait is twisted.
"We'll take it." I said, silently hoping the temptation wont be as bad as it was. I payed, taking the key and turning around to face a very pale Bella.
"Bella, are you alright?" I asked concern lacing my voice.
"I'm fine can we just go to the room now?" she asked. Her usually whit skin was practically transparent, I could see very vein in her neck. They were like beacons, and I followed them intently. The way they curved and passed beneath each other. The blue of them standing out starkly against the new paleness of her skin. I followed the lines down and watched them dip from her collar bone onto her shirt.
"Edward?" Bella asked, noticing me attention was not on the task at hand, getting to the room.
"Come on, Bella." I said gulping, my throat suddenly parched. So much for having little to no temptation.
We walked to the room hand in hand. When we reached the red door I hesitated. Of all rooms we got the honeymoon suit.
I slid the key into the slot and the green light flashed signaling it was open. We stepped inside, insure what we would be facing.
You opened the door to face a small entrance hall. A side table leaning against the wall by the door. When you walked through it you walked into a small living room, containing a love seat, and two oversized recliners. To the right a small kitchen and to the left the bedroom.
It wasn't as bad as it could have been. The walls were a warm beige and most of the furniture was a blood red, how fitting. Although the room was bigger than most I still don't see what made it a honeymoon suit. Then again, the door the bedroom was still closed.
I looked to Bella. As if noticing my gaze was on her, she looked up at me her eyes wide.
"It's big" she said still staring at me.
"It could be bigger, do you want to sleep now or do you want to get something to eat first?" I asked. She still looked tired, and I know she hadn't slept since yesterday night.
"I don't want to sleep yet." she said almost instantly. Again I wished I could read her.
"You want to eat then?"
"Can we go somewhere and eat?" she asked her eyes pleading.
I smiled at her "sure"
B.p.o.v.
I was scared.
I was anxious to leave the hotel, and everything it suggested. I mean really... the honeymoon suit. Considering my 'mission' it would have been a godsend. But after that dream, I wasn't so sure. When we got on the plane I was fine, but as soon as I started to fell asleep, it started.
The scenery was speeding past, Edward took my hand from the drivers side. I looked over to him smiling brightly. I was suddenly nervous. "Edward, I have something to tell you." I said never taking my eyes off him. "You know you can tell me anything" I took a deep breath before continuing. "Edward, I'm pregnant." He turned to look at me in his seat, taking his eyes off the road. I was hoping for joy, happiness to lite his eyes, Instead they grew dark, shaded. His jaw was set in a hard line. He looked away from me back at the road. As if I had never spoken.
I jolted awake every time. It was the way Edward had looked am me when I told him the news. Was it just a dream or was there more to it. I needed Alice. I did not however have any energy left to worry about my 'plan' for tonight. I had figured that I would just be able to go to sleep at the hotel when we'd arrived. Obviously fate had other things in store for me. As soon as we'd stepped foot into th hotel room. I immediately felt the impact of what was expected to happen in the room. Maybe Jasper was wrong. I mean it could happen, right? Damn it! No! I was doing the right thing. It was just a dream. Dreams don't have to mean anything.
"Where do you want to go?" Edward asked, snapping me back into reality.
"Can we just walk around for a while till we find someplace? The sun is almost set and it's cloudy anyway."
'You know Bella you don't have to keep asking me to do stuff right, It's your vacation too you know" he said smiling my favorite half smile.
"I know but I want you to have fun too"
"Any where you are I have fun" he said his tone taking on an edge of seriousness.
'So is that a yes" I said jokingly.
"Yes" he said, smiling even wider.
We turned around and headed back out the way we came. We walked around aimlessly for a while, until my stomach betrayed me, groaning loudly. Edward dragged me into the closest restaurant, which was a quaint little dinner. We grabbed a booth by the window and waited for the waiter.
On a whim I decided to play a game.
"Edward, truth or dare?" I said smiling
He looked up at me, panic stricken.
"'Oh no you're not getting me with that one. When Emmett got bored the one time he hmade us all play that. It was not pretty."
'Why what happened?"
"Let me just say that I now have a intense fear of Budweiser and pop rocks." he said seriously.
I couldn't hold it back then, I started laughing till I was practically in tears.
"You think that was funny?' Edward said, looking at me with a devilish grin. My laughter died down some by then. Edward growled deep in his throat. Withing second I was laughing again, Edward tickling me. I tried futilely to push him away but he grabbed my wrists lightly. Unknowingly bringing me closer to him. Our mouths were just inches apart. We had both been careful not to get to close to each other after what had happened at my house. I looked him in the eye uncertainly only to find him gazing at my lips. For the second time in 12 hours I could see little flecks of green form in his eyes. He started to lean in further, and just as our mouths were about to touch... the waiter, or should I say waitress decided that then was a good time to take our orders.
She cleared her throat from beside us, causing Edward to release me. Again the moment was lost. If things like this kept happening I would never get any further.
I looked up at the waitress and sighed. Great another young pretty little thing who spent her whole time acting as if I was nonexistent and trying to flirt with Edward, only to get frustrated when he didn't return her smiles.
This would not be easy.
A/N It's 4:18 in the morning i'm tired. :O I know that this chapter totally sucked, at least I think it did but don't worry it will get better. Trust me, I have plans.
Also, im not sure when I'm gonna post thee next chapter. I usually update at my school in the library but, it's closing this week so no more for that. I'm just gonna have to got to the public library for the summer, or until I get the internet. But don't worry I wont make you late too long. Especially if I get what? Hope you liked it watch out for the next Chapter!
