A/N: Okay, so you all owe me big time for getting this chapter out before I went away. I will take payment in the form of money (I have ) or cookies, preferably without cookies because my 2 y/o is allergic. Although after she colored all over my living room wall today with crayon, she might just need some. Just Kidding.
I believe my beta's description of this chapter was "SWEET MOTHER OF GOD" LOL.
Anywhoo, I had to give a few shout outs to some of the awesome readers who made my week with their fuckawesome reviews, thus why this chapter got done so quickly: lysvia, maggiemay14, weasleyweakness, flightlessbird11, mmwalker (still laughing about the note thing), bacmel79, clancy119, melferd, fanficreader83, lovebuggkiss, addictedtotwilight79, ICPinkFuzzyBunnies and one of my newbie reviewers beegurl13.
The reviews for the last chapter blew me away! It was fucking crazier than James! Oh and to answer your question about how James knows that B&E are together… um, hello… a psychotic stalker. They have their ways!
Anyways, I highly recommend finding 'Ride' by the Cary Brothers… you'll see why. Oh and because I am completely OCD, there's a wee playlist at the end of the chapter. Songs I listened to during the writing of this chappie that I felt worked well with the story.
I don't own twilight, but I apparently have a very f'd up head! See you all in a few days… leave me some loving and I'll write faster when I get back! Oh… twitter me… coldplaywhore. LOL

"We would like for you guys to stay in a hotel tonight and we will book you in under pseudonyms so that this James character can't trace you," said Officer Fraser, speaking to Jasper, Alice and I. The apartment was obviously declared a crime scene, but we were allowed to pack some necessary essentials and asked to wait in the hallway until they were ready to escort us.
"His name isn't really James. We don't know his real name, that's just the name he gave us. James Wilkinson," Alice explained to the cop as he wrote down a few notes in his notebook. "You guys should have all this on file from last time. It was six months ago, December 30th."
"Can I talk to you?" called Edward to the officer when he finally came out of his bedroom almost five minutes later. Upon first glance, he looked angry as hell. In fact I don't think angry was a big enough word to encompass how he looked… he looked livid, furious and enraged. I was certain I heard him punch a hole in his wall. I wanted to run over to him and apologize for bringing this madness into our lives, but I didn't think it would make anything better.
"I'll pack for you Bella," said Alice with a sigh as she saw me watching Edward talk to the cop. I shrugged my shoulders indifferently. Right now I really didn't care what happened to my clothes, although I felt like shit since Alice had nothing to bring with her. James knew full well that Alice loved her clothes and he completely shredded every single scrap of fabric she owned, no doubt doing it with a huge grin on his face. "I'm taking a few of your things for me."
"Whatever you need Alice," I commented simply as I watched Jasper stroll through the living room surveying the damage. He was no doubt relieved he wasn't the one who moved in here. "Are you staying with Jasper?"
"Fuck no. He lives like an 18 year old stoner, we rarely visit his apartment and I can't imagine spending the night there. I've already dropped a few hints suggesting he find a new place. The cops are getting us two rooms at some hotel, one for Jasper and I and the other one is for you and Edward. I turned back towards her and stared at her incredulously.
"Seriously?"
"Yeah, seriously. You need to fucking tell him about James before things get out of control. Edward will protect you Bella. The sooner you do it, the better off you will be, plus Edward won't be so damned confused." I sighed as Alice spoke, knowing she was telling the truth. He would protect me but I hoped it never came to that.
A few minutes later, I found myself sitting on the floor of the hallway with Alice, surrounded by one big ass cop while Edward and Jasper spoke to two other officers inside the apartment. "Think positive Bells, at least now we get to move again. I don't know why we fucking stayed here anyways after the last time," exclaimed Alice as I rested my head in my hands and curled my legs up to my chest.
"Do we get to leave soon? I'm really tired," I mentioned as I flipped open my phone and noticed it was now three in the morning.
"Yes Ma'am. Mr. Cullen is just finishing packing his bag and talking to Officer Fraser and then we'll be on our way to the hotel," he said with genuine concern as I clutched my duffle bag in my hand tightly. We waited a few more minutes before they finally came out, Edward still looking pissed. He offered his hand to help me from the floor and then we walked beside each other, never touching, down to the awaiting police cruisers.
Within half an hour we were being escorted into our rooms in the Holiday Inn. I wasn't even sure where we were because I had fallen asleep in the car against Edward's shoulder shortly after we pulled off of our street. "Here you guys go. If you need anything else, there will be an officer located outside of your room until a final decision is made later in the day about your arrangements. In the meantime, get some sleep and we'll see you in a while," said Officer Fraser as he closed the door behind himself and Edward locked it quickly.
"I'm sorry we have to share a room… and a bed. I didn't request this," he said anxiously as he walked to the bathroom and started to brush his teeth.
"It's Alice's fault. She made them give us one room so we could talk," I called out to him as I grabbed my pajamas from my bag and waited patiently to get into the bathroom. Edward wandered out a few minutes later, his shirt clutched tightly in his hand and a pair of loose fitting boxer shorts covering his lower half. Even in the midst of all this madness, he was still the hottest fucking thing I had ever seen. His tattoo was fully revealed to me and I really drooled as I thought for a second about licking it. He said something to me that I completely didn't understand and I just nodded my head.
"Bella… hello? You can go use the bathroom now," he repeated as I held my clothes tight to my chest and stepped into the bathroom. I came out ten minutes later, completely changed and ready for bed. Edward was already lying under the covers, staring up at the ceiling like it held the answers to all of life's little mysteries, like how did they get the caramel inside the Caramilk bar?
I crawled in beside him and was shocked when he wrapped his arm around me and pulled me tight to his hard body. Oh fuck he smells good. "I think it's time we talked about this Bella." Tears immediately started to form in my eyes as I felt his fingers run through my hair, trying to soothe me. "I don't care what happened, but I need to know if you want me to help you."
Edward reached his hand up to my face and immediately wiped away the salty tears that had fallen across my cheek. I curled up closer to him and finally just started talking.
"James, or whatever the fuck his real name is, met me in senior year of college. We had a creative writing class together, which I later found out wasn't true because he wasn't enrolled in class at the University. Anyways, we had class together, he would always sit at the back of the lecture hall and every now and then we would see each other in the library or at some campus restaurant and we'd talk about class." Edward kept his hands moving across my hair as I spoke and I remained curled up against his chest. The scent of him actually helped to keep me focus on what I was trying to tell him and was also very calming to me.
"He asked me out one day and I turned him down, not really interested in him in that way. I thought nothing of it and he kept coming to class and then the semester ended and I didn't see him again. Almost a year and half later, Alice came home gushing about this guy named James that she met at the grocery store and she was so excited about it. I never once thought it was the same James."
"Did you see him at all in that year and half before he started dating Alice?" asked Edward curiously as I sat up a bit, leaning on my elbows and looking into his green eyes. He looked worried and sad, and I felt like such a bitch for unloading on him. No wonder it took me so long to tell him because I never wanted to see him tormented like this again.
"No. I didn't see him again until Alice brought him over for Thanksgiving to meet Rosalie, Emmett and I after they had been dating a few weeks," I explained as he nodded his head slowly. "Anyways, I convinced James not to tell Alice about our past because I didn't want her to know that he technically wanted me first and he seemed all fine with it."
I closed my eyes and ran my hand over my face a few times; trying to find the right words to explain things to Edward so that everything will be okay.
"Everything is going to be alright Bella," he said sweetly as he kissed my temple and I groaned.
"Stay out of my head Edward, I was just wondering about that."
"Well don't wonder. Just talk to me." I nodded my head apprehensively and opened my mouth, the words just came out.
"The shit hit the fan the night before New Year's Eve. I was home from work and Alice was running behind at work, so I has home alone. James showed up early to take Alice out to dinner and I said he could wait around till she got home while I went to my room." Ah my dreaded bedroom, the bane of my existence. "I was in there unpacking from my trip to visit my father for the holidays and he came in and shut the door behind him, locking it tightly. He proceeded to tell me how he had watched me since early in senior year and only pretended to take the creative writing course to get closer to me."
I felt his hand snake down my bare arm and I shuddered pleasantly at the contact and smiled at him. "Don't let my movements distract you," he said with an anxious smile as I took a deep calming breathe and continued. Think he was trying to calm the anger building inside of him by staying as close to me as possible.
"James told me that he had then watched me for the past year and a half and was using Alice to get to me because he knew I was destined to be his, whether I knew it or not. Whether I wanted it or not. He ended up pining me to my bed and as we struggled, I could hear Alice come in the apartment and as I tried to scream for her, he bit me… which left this lovely reminder," I said as a few more tears fell and I slowly tugged down my tank top and showed him my crescent shaped scar just above my left breast.
My heart honestly stopped when Edward leaned down and kissed the scar gently. Honest to goodness panty wetting, heart stopping, pure sexiness when he kissed the reminder of the worst day of my entire life. After I took a moment to find some paddles and restart my heart, I finished the story to the best of my recollection.
"Alice ended up breaking into my room and found James hovering over me about to rape me, which thank god never happened," I stated as Edward interrupted me.
"Thank fucking god."
"Anyways… she ended up stabbing him in the back with her umbrella which scared him off and he fled the apartment. We called the cops and I blacked out for a while after I saw all the blood on my chest. I was in the hospital for a few days as they dealt with trying to fix the bite, which looks a hell of a lot better now than it ever did. My plastic surgeon said I could probably have it completely removed for like ten grand, but I can't afford that. Fuck, I can barely handle the rent let alone laser surgery to remove my fucking scar."
"So in review, I had a stalker for three years that tried to attack me while dating my best friend and he scarred me for life. He's obviously still out there and still fucking deranged and the cops cannot find him because we don't know his real name. He told us it was James Wilkinson, but that guy doesn't actually exist according to the cops; well not as we know him."
"How the fuck is it that after six months of this shit the cops don't know who the fuck he is?" exclaimed Edward angrily. Apparently cool, calm and collected Edward who listened to my confession no longer existed once the details were out in the open. "With all the advancements in forensic technology they can't catch this bastard? I'll fucking kill him if I ever see him."
"Advancements in forensic technology? Who are you and what did you do with my boyfriend?" I asked with a slight chuckle as I tried to break the tension. "Can't you just kiss me, cuddle me and then fall asleep. We've never slept together before; I kind of want to enjoy this."
Edward tightened his grip around me and I immediately rested my head near his shoulder and leaned up to kiss him sweetly on his neck. What started as being gentle, led way to me sucking on his neck a little more forcefully than I planned to, and when I heard him groan and adjust his body beneath me, I worried I was going too far, but I didn't want to stop.
"What are you doing Bella?" he asked nervously as he turned to face me and I thrust my lips onto his vigorously. My hand immediately plunged into his thick mass of hair and I began to suck on his bottom lip as I felt his hands on my shoulders pushing me away. "This isn't the best time to be making out."
"Who said I wanted to make out Edward?" I questioned seductively as looked up at him through my eyelashes and watched intently as he cocked one eye brow and looked at me curiously.
"What do you want?"
I ran my hand down his chest and along his hard length which was buried beneath his boxer shorts. "I think you know what I want."
EPOV
Holy fucking shit. How in god's name did we get here?
As I sat here, Bella's gentle hands running the length of my cock over my boxer shorts, I groaned involuntarily because I desperately wanted her… I wanted this, but not this way. She finally managed the courage to tell me about the fucked up situation she has been living through for the past three years and now I'm imagining all the nasty and utterly sinful things I want to do to her. This isn't right.
I should be thinking about how to track down that motherfucker and kick his brains into his asshole for even laying a finger on this precious girl. Shit, stop fucking rubbing it.
"Okay, we have to stop," I said reluctantly as I reached below the covers and pulled her hand from me. What the fuck are you doing… she wants that magnificent cock. For once, she wants it. Stop over thinking this you fucking idiot.
"No, we don't Edward," Bella said forcefully as I felt her hand slip beneath the waistband of my boxers and she gripped my hardness in her hand gently. Margaret Thatcher naked on a cold day. Margaret Thatcher naked on a cold day.
"Not like this Bella."
Before I could even think another thought, her hand was back on top of the covers and she was looking at me with pure anger in her eyes. "For the entire time I've known you, all you've wanted to do is get into my pussy. I am finally fucking offering it to you; I want you… all of you. I'm finally ready and you don't want me? I don't get you Edward," yelled out Bella as she rolled over to the other side of the bed, her back now facing me. Dude, you fucked up.
I nervously wrapped my arm around her waist and pulled her back against my chest, spooning her tightly. "What do you want from me Bella?" I whispered into her ear quietly as I felt her body quiver beneath me.
"I just want you. I want you to make me forget everything for a few hours. I want to make you forget it too." I heard her sigh gently and as I kissed her neck, I slipped my hand into the waistband of her panties and pulled them down her legs, where she eagerly kicked them off under the covers. I licked her neck, just below her ear and she groaned gently as I then reached down and cupped her wetness.
"I promise to make you forget he even exists Bella." I slipped a finger between her folds and I grew hard as I ran the length of her, finally feeling every inch of her as I dipped it into her pussy and she gripped me tightly. Fuck, she was going to be so fucking tight. My lips latched onto her neck and with my free hand, I slipped the strap of her tank top down her shoulder as I kissed a trail from her neck down to her hand, finally stopping to suck each finger into my mouth seductively.
"Oh fuck," she moaned as she pushed her ass against my straining cock and I groaned in response. My finger was rubbing circles around her clit as I felt her push her hips against my hand, eager for more contact between us.
"I want to lick every fucking inch of you Bella," I said confidently as I danced my fingers slowly down her body to the hem of her shirt, which I pulled over her head and tossed towards the couch. "I want to taste every fucking sweet drop of you."
Pushing the covers off of our bodies, I repositioned myself so I was hovering over her as she lied on her back, completely naked. "You are so unbelievably beautiful," I said as I started to leave kisses all the way from her lips to her belly button, finally reaching the promise land between her legs, which I now pushed open to reveal her lusciousness to me.
I leaned back on my knees for a moment and looked at her for a moment and she was actually smiling. Not that my sexual abilities hadn't led many a woman to smile, but that was usually afterwards. "Why are you smiling like that?" I asked curiously as I moved my hands up her legs slowly, relishing in feeling every inch of her body.
"I just feel free… like some huge weight is off of my shoulders," she said easily as I kissed her ankle which I held in my hand.
"I'll make you feel a hundred times better in a moment," I said as I bent forward and licked the length of her wetness, which was honestly the sweetest thing I had ever tasted. I moaned in appreciation as I felt her moving slightly above me, but I tried not to let it distract me from my mission. I spread her open to me and continued to lick every sweet inch of her before I thrust my finger back inside of her, desperately envisioning my cock in there. All in due time, I told myself as I worked diligently to get her off.
"Oh god, you that…. uhhh…. that feels so good Edward," I heard her pant above me as I added a second finger and began to rub her clit with my thumb as I kissed her thighs gently and sucked the skin close to her folds. The faster I pumped my fingers into her the louder she moaned and the harder I grew. I pulled my fingers out and heard her let out a low growl before I licked all around her hard clit and dipped my tongue inside of her, letting it flutter gently while she tightened around me. "Holy fuck."
"Do you like that Bella? Do you like when I fuck you with my tongue?" I asked as she growled again at the loss of contact between us.
"Yy-ess," she stammered out quietly as I stuck my tongue back inside of her and rubbed her clit fiercely with my thumb, desperate to get her to cum in my mouth. The pure lust I was feeling completely over took me as I grabbed her ass tightly in my hands and I plunged my tongue in and out of her. I had to gasp as I noticed her finger on her clit, rubbing fiercely where my thumb had been earlier before I need to feel her tight supple ass in my hands. I was rewarded minutes later with a gush of her sweet juice as she gripped my forearms tightly and screamed out my name in ecstasy.
When I finally leaned back on my heels, very proud of my oral ministrations on my girl, I was about to wipe off my mouth when Bella jumped up and wrapped her arms around me, kissing me furiously. Our tongues entwined quickly and began fighting for dominance as I felt myself throbbing beneath her. "We taste really good together," she remarked coolly as I looked at her in shock once we finally parted.
"Fuck, that was so hot," I muttered as she gripped my shaft again. "I need to be inside of you baby."
"By all means," she said with a smirk as she leaned back down on the bed and spread her legs open for me. It was completely reminiscent of the night before when I watched her play with herself, but this time I was doing an internal jig knowing I would be able to finally sheath myself in her glorious pussy.
"Oh fuck," I shouted as I jumped off the bed, desperately fumbling for my wallet in the dark.
"What's wrong?" she asked with a giggle as she stayed still on the bed and I started grabbing at the clothes on the floor.
"Where the fuck did I put my jeans?" I asked her in frustration. There was no way I was letting this night go without fucking her. Hell, I would even step into the hallway buck naked and ask the cop for a condom if I had to. She was going to be mine in every sense of the word tonight.
"I don't think you brought them out of the bathroom with you Edward. Check under the counter or on the back of the door," Bella suggested as I heard her let out a small moan.
"What are you doing?" I asked curiously as I stepped into the bathroom and found my jeans hanging on the back of the door, my wallet still in the back pocket and a condom safely tucked away inside. I grabbed it and quickly high tailed it out of the bathroom and back to Bella, who was still moaning. "What the fuck? Did you start without me?"
"Maybe," she admitted shyly as I ripped open the package and yanked off my boxers, quickly sheathing my cock with the condom before I repositioned myself on the bed, in front of her glistening pussy.
"Stop Bella," I said as I grabbed her hand forcefully and removed it from her cunt. "This is mine," I said with a possessive growl as I ran my finger the length of her slit and I saw her smile beneath me. "This is also mine," I added as I leaned forward and kissed her scar, which ironically was just above her heart.
As I positioned myself at her entrance, I could feel the heat radiating off of her and the lust and wanton desire in her eyes. I looked at her, as though asking permission and she gently nodded her head as I grasped her hips firmly in my hands and eased myself into her.
"Oh christ, you are so fucking hot and tight Bella," I groaned in pure ecstasy as I found myself deeply entrenched inside of her. This was everything I had wanted since the moment I saw her and it was better than I could have ever imagined, not because she was beautiful and sexy, but because I was falling in love with her. Holy shit. I am falling in love with her. I've never told any girl I loved them.
We both remained still for a moment as we adjusted to each other before I pulled out and began to slowly plunge myself in and out of her. Her groans and growls were the sexiest fucking thing I had ever seen and even though there was love in my movements, horny Edward couldn't seem to keep his mouth shut. "You have the most fantastic cunt… ever. It's not the sweetest thing to say, but it's the truth. I could fuck you all night long."
"I like sweet Edward," she explained breathlessly as I kissed her stomach for a moment. "But I want to be fucked by horny crass Edward." Holy fuck… permission to speak freely.
"Well if that's the case my little tease, lift your ass up so I can fuck that sweet cunt harder," I asked calmly as she did as I instructed and I pulled her closer to me, my hands now resting on that sweet fucking ass of hers. I was tempted to roll her over onto her hands and knees just so I could watch my cock slide in and out of her while staring at that ass, but I decided to use that another day. "Rub your clit Bella, and feel my cock pound into you as hard as I can."
I quickened my pace and with her body elevated slightly, I was able to get deeper inside of her and began moaning her name over and over again as I slipped in and out of her. "Oh fuck yes… best pussy ever," I groaned as I heard a small chuckle from Bella. "Keep fucking playing with yourself Bella or there will be repercussions."
"Yes sir," she replied as I smacked her ass lightly. Oh fuck that felt good. "Fuck me, do that again."
"You like it when I smack your ass Bella?" I asked as I pulled my hand back again and smacked her harder this time and she yelped in pleasure.
"Hell yes," she responded as I began rubbing her ass while I rammed back into her again. A few moments later she began screaming my name and I knew she was close to cumming, which drew me close to the edge of my own release.
"Cum for me Bella…. I want to feel you while I'm buried deep inside of you… cum for me," I pleaded with her as she bit her bottom lip, yelled out my name and tightened her entire body, shuddering in bliss as I came inside of her eagerly.
As I leaned back, hands on my ankles, I found myself reluctant to pull out, lest we lose the connection between us. "Come here," Bella said as she raised one finger and drew me towards her. She kissed my lips tenderly and I wrapped my arms tightly around her naked form as I pulled the covers back up around us. "Thank you."
"For what? I'm the one who should be thanking you. You were fucking unbelievable, I can't believe you're mine," I admitted anxiously as I felt her fingers gently brushing through the hairs at the back of my neck.
"For being patient. It took everything that happened tonight to make me realize I need to get past it all and just trust you with everything. I'm actually kind of glad we waited," she said genuinely as I kissed her forehead.
"I am too." I love you.
Daylight was already coming through the sides of the dark curtains, but I wasn't tired at all. I could feel Bella's breathing slow as she rested her head against my bare chest and I wrapped my arms tight around her, singing her to sleep.
You are everything I wanted
The scars of all I'll ever know
If I told you you were right
Would you take my hand tonight?
If I told you the reasons why
Would you leave your life and ride?
And ride
You saw all my pieces broken
This darkness that I could never show
If I told you you were right
Would you take my hand tonight?
If I told you the reasons why
Would you leave your life and ride?
And ride
