AN: Sorry it took so long to update! I also wanted you all to let me know in reviews if you would like to see more of Roslin!

Chloe had been staying at the Cullen house for a week. She went back to her apartment everyday because James would leave packages for her. They were always vile and disgusting like the first. She didn't want her neighbors finding them.

To say living with Edward and his family was a dream come true would be a bit of an overstatement. Now, she loved spending time with Rosalie, Esme, and Alice, they always had so much fun. But it was living with Edward that drove her mad. It would seem that he thought he had the right to tell her what she could and could not do. Like today for example. She had scheduled lunch with Oliver and Edward did not approve of that at all. He had ranted about it all morning and was still ranting now.

"I don't think you going on a date with Queen is necessary," Edward spoke as he paced the room. It was obvious to anyone watching that he didn't like this idea at all.

"It's not a date, it's lunch." Chloe told him for the tenth time in twenty minutes. It wasn't a date; she and Oliver were meeting for lunch to talk. And, if Chloe could help it, that would not involve any talk about past relationships.

"A lunch date," Edward insisted. "It's you and him alone in a restaurant: that is a date."

"You're being impossible!" Chloe's voice was raised. Didn't he see how unreasonable he was being? It wasn't a date, it didn't resemble a date, it would never be a date. She took a deep breath and walked over to him, wrapping her arms around his neck. "Now are you going to tell me what's really wrong Edward? What's really bothering you?"

Edward sighed at her. "If only you could read his thoughts like I can, you would understand. All he ever does when I am around is think about times you two were together." The way Edward said 'together' made Chloe think that he didn't mean Oliver was thinking about the times they went to dinner or to the movies. She waited for him to continue. "He likes knowing that I have to see what he is thinking, he loves to rub it in that you were his first."

Chloe's hand caressed his cheek. "But I'm with you now. Isn't that what matters now?"

Edward growled low in his throat, "That's the point, if he has his way you won't be mine for long! He wants you back Chloe, he doesn't hide that in the least. He will do anything in his power to get you back."

"But I don't want him back. I'm with you because I want you. Can't you see that? You're worried over nothing. Oliver meant something to me once, but not anymore. I wish you could see that. I want you Edward, nobody else, but I don't know how to make you trust me." Her voice held the pain she was feeling. How could they ever really be together if he couldn't allow himself to trust her?

Edward held her close to his body. "I do trust you Chloe, it's him I don't trust. But you're right, I can't control who you are friends with, but if he does something inappropriate I will not hesitate to do something."

Chloe nods. "But he won't do anything." Of that she was almost sure. Even if Ollie did try something, it wouldn't change how she felt or didn't feel about him. She was with Edward now, and she knew in her heart that she loved him.

That brought her to the real problem of living with Edward. It was so hard being so close to him and not be with him physically in the way that she wanted. She knew that he wanted her too, but it was just the timing was always wrong. It was never the right time or something came up to stop it. She had a sneaking suspicion that Clark used his superhearing and whenever they got close decided to drop in for a visit.

Chloe sighed as she looked at the clock on the wall. It was time for her to go. She pulled away from Edward slowly, and then felt his grip tighten. He obviously didn't want her to go. She needed to reassure him, so she leaned up and kissed him quickly on the lips, just to let him feel her love for him. She grabbed her bag and hurried out the door.

----------

Chloe made it to the little Italian restaurant right on time. She sat across from Oliver who offered a smile that at one time could melt her heart but all it did now was remind her of the pain he put her through.

"Hey Chloe, I was afraid you wouldn't make it."

Chloe just smiled back before replying. "Well I made it, just like I said I would. When have I ever not kept a promise?" She took a sip of the ice water the waitress brought over. "So what did you want to talk about? It sounded really important."

Oliver straightened up and looked her directly in the eye. "Chloe I want to talk to you about Edward Cullen."

Chloe felt the tension immediately. "What about Edward?"

Oliver took a deep breath. "Chloe I don't think you should be with him. It isn't safe. He's a vampire, and while I can agree he hasn't hurt you yet that doesn't mean he won't."

Chloe set her cup down slowly so not to spill it. "I don't think it's your business who I am and who I am not with. Listen Oliver, I only came tonight because you said that it was business."

"I don't understand why you're with him, damnit! He doesn't love you like I do! Didn't what we have mean anything to you? How can you just let it go? How can you act like it's over?" His raised voice had caught many patrons' attention.

Chloe stood up; it looked like this lunch wouldn't last very long. "Don't you start in on me Oliver Jonas Queen! I loved you with everything I had, I gave you all of me, and you just threw it away. And now, now that I am happy you want back in my life? It's not going to happen you son of a bi-" Her rant was cut off by his lips crashing down on hers. She tried to push him away, because the kiss is disgusting. It was being forced on her. It was horrible. She felt nothing for him anymore, and this just made her loathe him.

Finally she pushed him off and ran into the direction of home. It didn't occur to her that she thought of the Cullen house as home. When she entered the house Edward was by her side immediately. He saw the tears and watched as she wiped her mouth.

"Chloe what happened? Did he hurt you?" Edward wouldn't stand for it if that asshole Oliver hurt her in any way or form.

With tears spilling down her cheeks she told the whole sordid story. By the end Edward was fuming and Chloe knew there was no use in following him when he leaves. She just ended up collapsing in Rosalie's arms, crying over and over again until her tears were gone and she couldn't cry anymore.

Edward had traced Oliver and his smell all the way to Queen Towers. He didn't to bother knocking, he just stormed right on in. He looked around for a total of three seconds before he spotted Oliver nursing a cup of brandy. Edward grabbed him slammed him into the wall.

"You kissed her!" he snarled with his hand still around Oliver's throat. All he could see was red. Queen put his hands on Edward's girl. That was not acceptable. It would never be acceptable. "What kind of man are you? I'm not even human yet here you are, more of a monster than I am! You dared to touch her?"

"Yeah but you're forgetting on thing Cullen," Oliver's words were slightly slurred and Edward assumed he had been drinking since the incident.

"And what is that?" Edward snapped at him, still pinning Oliver to the wall.

"She didn't kiss me back." And for one moment Edward felt sorry for Oliver. "I kissed her with everything I felt for her, and it didn't effect her at all. She doesn't want my anymore. The better man won, and I do mean the better man Edward."

Edward was a bit shocked and a little confused. He had come here intending to beat the hell out of this man, but here he was handing her over to Edward on a silver platter. "You won't go after her anymore then?"

Oliver nodded as Edward released him. "I won't. I won't stop loving her, and if you hurt her I will kill you, but I won't try to take her from you again. And I plan to apologize in a day or so, to give her time to cool off. Even though it will kill me to not be with her, I'd rather have her as a friend than not at all."

"Good," was all Edward said before he disappeared.

When he entered his place it was quiet. No one was there save for Chloe whom Edward was happily surprised to find lying on the bed in nothing but a little red nightie. He tilted his head at her in a questioning gesture. "What's this? Where is everyone?"

Her smile was playful and devilish. "Well after a little talk with everyone it turns out they had a way to spend the evening that didn't involve being around the house. Rose and Emmet went out dancing, Alice dragged Jasper to a movie then shopping, and Carlisle took Esme out for a night on the town. That leaves you and me alone. Hmm…I wonder what we could do?"

Edward slid off his coat and tossed it to the floor. He met her in the middle of the room. "Oh I have some ideas."

He pulled her close to him. He breathed in her scent; it was his ambrosia. Her hands curled around his neck and entwined in his hair. His hands gently landed on her waist over the nightie. He groaned at the feel of her. "You're not expecting a visit from Clark tonight, are you? He tends to show up at the most of inconvenient times."

Chloe let out a slow and seductive smile. "Nope, I called Lana and she agreed to keep Clark away from us tonight. So that just leaves us to have the evening free. No interruptions or anything to stop us from having a night for just us."

Edward smiled happily at that, a night with just the two of them. They could finally be together. He slid his hands down her waist to her thighs, and then moved them up under her nightgown. He caressed the tender, sensitive skin of her thigh, and grinned when she moaned out the word more. He kissed her then gently and sweetly. His tongue sought for entrance to her mouth and she allowed him access.

Her hands slid his shirt up and over his head. She marveled at the beauty of his concrete body. He truly was a work of art. Her hands caressed his chest and her mouth left his to travel down his throat and shoulders to land on one hard nipple. She licked the peak gently and bites down but not hard; just enough to cause him to make that keening sound she so loved to hear.

Edward swept her up bridal style and laid her on the bed. His hands remove her nightie in one swoop, leaving her in only a red bra and matching panties. Her hands went for his jeans, and she fumbled with the button before finally succeeding in her task. He stood up just long enough to remove his jeans and boxers.

Feeling unfairly exposed he removed her bra and panties. He didn't want to hurt her so he asked her to make sure. "Are you sure this is what you want?"

"Always." He slid her hand over him and guides him to her enterance. He enters her with one movement and it's heaven and it's hell and it's pain and pleasure all in one. He felt like he was dying from the sheer pleasure of feeling himself inside of her.

"I love you Chloe. You'll always be mine." His words were whispered but said with so much emotion that she knew that it was true.

"I love you too, Edward. I'll always love you."

And he kissed her again as they moved as one. Soon they both climaxed and Edward rolled over bringing Chloe with him so he could hold her. He held her as she slept, throwing a blanket over them. He was happier than he had ever been before and he knew with her he would always feel so alive. Too bad he didn't realize James had seen it all and vowed to make Chloe his. Tomorrow the games were taking a step up.

TBC...

Preview for next time:

"Lois! Lois, no, you can't be dead!"

"She's gone."

"I won't let her stay that way!"

"I won't let you, I can't take the chance I'll lose you."

"And I can't lose her! No matter what happened in the past I can't lose her."

-------

"You and Edward are coming to the Talon's Halloween party, right?"

"Great! Make sure the other Cullens come too."

"Chloe how nice to see you again."

"James."
