A/N: I don't own this, we all know who does. What I do own is a Mother's Day card that I got today from my sweet wifey. I wonder if they make Memorial Day cards... I need to check and see. :D Of course, that leaves her with Flag Day as the next holiday in our greeting card tag game. Good luck there, babe! :D

Thanks to my girlies – EdwardsBloodType, Unchanged Affections, Twilight44, MaggieMay14, Luxure, and my fan fic wifey Mrs. Robward. I love them more than I can possibly say. I'm a lucky girl… :)

I'm not even gonna say anything here. Bring on the kink! :D

Chapter 10

~*0*~ Green House ~*0*~

Alice and I stay on the dance floor for another song or two. By the time we're ready to go back to the table, every man within ten feet of us has tried to get at least one of us to dance with him. We don't, we're happy in our own drunken bubble. Her hands skim along the bottom hem of my skirt, reaching up every so often to tease me. Each time she does it, Edward stiffens a bit more, and I can tell he's fighting to stay in his seat. Jasper just keeps drinking, and I wonder for a moment if he thinks it's all a drunken illusion.

"Let's go take these boys home," Alice says in my ear. She's facing me as we grind together and her hands are in the back pockets of my skirt. My right hand is on her waist, but my left is up her shirt, with my thumb rubbing back and forth along the bottom band of her bra.

"Sounds good."

We leave the dance floor, much to the dismay of the other men dancing nearby. Edward and Jasper are out of the booth in a flash and leading us to the door. I wonder, for a moment, if we'll even make it home. It's a bit of a drive back to Clallam Bay, and the hunger in their eyes tells me they're both pretty worked up and ready to go.

"Should we sit in the backseat and tease them on the way home?" Alice asks, giggling like she just said the funniest thing she's ever heard. As much as I'd like to do it, I don't think it's a good idea. Not with the way Edward is pulling me along with him.

"Nah, let's just wait until we get back to my place. We'll give them a treat then, okay?"

She smiles. "Okay, sounds like fun."

We get to the car and the guys help us into our seats, Edward buckling me in himself, before grabbing my face and kissing me with more passion than I've seen him possess before. For some reason, me and Alice's little show seems to have really affected him, and I watch as he adjusts himself before closing my door and running around to the driver's side.

The ride home is fun, with Alice and I singing along to whatever song is on the radio. It's even more fun when we don't know the words and make up our own. The boys seem anxious to get us home, and Alice can hardly keep Jasper from feeling her up right there in front of us. It makes me laugh, watching her push him away, and telling him to wait. Edward looks over at me every few minutes, watching me like I'm his prey or something. It's hot, and I can't help by lean over and kiss him, then suck on his neck as my hands rub up and down on his hardened cock.

"Hey Bella, none of that while we're driving!" Alice yells from the back. "Save it for at home, baby!"

I sit back in my seat with a pout, then cross my arms, waiting until we get home. She's so gonna get it.

~*0*~

We laugh and stumble toward the back stairs that lead to my apartment. I ask Edward if he wants to get a drink from the bar before we go up. I'm so drunk I can hardly see straight, but I know he's sober, and has some possessiveness issues when it comes to me. I figure a little liquor might lighten him up toward what I want to do, but he just growls at me and leads me to the stairs. It's not too late yet, and the bar is still open, so I try not to make too much noise and call attention to us.

Once we're inside the apartment, I lock the door and take Edward's arm. I pull him to the sofa and then guide him backward, telling him to sit down. I know he can see my bed from there, which is perfect for what I have planned. Alice and I grab Jasper's hands and pull him into my bedroom. There's a chair against the wall, and I tell him to sit, then I pull Alice across the room and to the foot of my bed.

There's something strange about guys. They're totally into it when two girls are naked and seeing each other get off, but two guys happening to see each other? For some reason they hate that. If only they knew how much it turns most women on, maybe they wouldn't be so close minded about it, but whatever. I'm far too drunk to try and right what's wrong in the world tonight. All I know is that both Edward and Jasper have a clear view of Alice and I, and they can't see each other. It's perfect.

Alice and I stop next to my bed, with the back of her legs hitting the edge of the mattress. I smile over at Jasper, who's sitting forward on the chair. "Happy birthday," I say before I place my hand on Alice's cheek and tilt her head up to mine. Her lips are soft and wet, and I kiss her gently at first, letting it grow into something much more risque as the seconds tick by.

My hands move to her waist and the hem of her shirt, and I pull up, taking it off of her. My mind is so blurry and hazy, that the quick action almost makes me stumble, but I steady myself quickly and get back to kissing her. Her arms wrap around my waist and I know she wants to get my shirt off, too, but I stop her.

"No, wait," I whisper, sliding my hands to the waistband of her skirt as I work at undoing the button and zipper. Once they're open, I push it over her hips and let it drop to the floor. She's standing there in only a red bra and thong, and I begin to kiss down her neck toward her collar bones.

Reaching around behind her, I find the closure of her bra and unhook it quickly, letting the ends fall away from each other. I lean back from her, and watch as I slide the straps off her shoulders and pull the lacy fabric away from her. Her breasts are bigger than I thought when I first saw them through the window all those weeks ago, but her nipples are pink and dark and begging for me to taste them.

I hear a groan from the side of the room, and look over to see Jasper leaning back in his chair, his hand rubbing slowly up and down over his still jean confined cock. I'm sure what I'm doing to Alice is driving him insane, and I wonder how long it will be until he's stroking himself.

It's kind of amazing, seeing a man's hardened penis for the first time. Not that I ever want to have sex with Jasper, even though he's a good looking guy, but I'm anxious to see it. It's a fascinating thing to watch a man's hand pump up and down his red, swollen shaft. And every man is different. Every cock is different. And seeing the desire in his eyes makes me excited to see his, and watch him pleasure himself while I take care of his girl.

Looking over toward Edward, I flash him a smile before turning back to Alice, who is breathing hard and fast as I skim my hands over her nearly naked body. Edward is relaxed on the sofa, one arm laying across the back of the couch, the other settled on the arm rest. I can tell from the stretch in his jeans that he's hard, and I'm curious to see how long he'll hold out before he begins touching himself.

"Sit down," I tell Alice, pushing slightly on her shoulders until she's seated on the bed. I lay her back, hovering over her as I kiss her lips for a few more moments. Then I start my descent. I kiss her neck, her collar bones, the upper swells of her breasts, her hardened nipples, her ribs, her stomach, her hip bones, and finally her thighs. When I look up at her once more, her eyes are watching me, and I tuck my fingers into the band of her panties, tugging lightly on them. She lifts just enough for me to slide them over her hips, then I pull them the rest of the way off. She's completely bare before me, and I look her over, taking in the beauty of her creamy skin, her goose bumped flesh, and her bare center. She told me she'd waxed, but I didn't really care until right now.

I kneel down next to the bed and place my hands on the insides of her knees, pressing them apart. The sight before me is something I've only seen a few times in my life—at least up close and personal like this. I love oral sex, both giving and getting it, and while doing it with men is great, there's just something different about women. The taste is always so much sweeter, and they always smell so good. I run my nose along her leg, up and up and up until I'm right where I want to be, and then I lick up along her folds, causing her to tremble and moan out loud.

For the next several minutes I lick her, suck her, taste her, and touch her before finally pumping my fingers into her pussy, coating them with her wetness. She's writhing in pleasure on the bed, her fingers twisting and pinching her nipples as I continue to give her what she wants. Jasper is full on stroking himself now, and Edward's not fairing much better. I can see him leaning forward, his forearms on his thighs as he watches and waits for his turn.

Soon Alice is shaking as she cums. I pull my fingers out and let my tongue lick up the juices that seep from her. Once she's calmed down, I kiss her thighs, then get up and move over her body again. I'm just intending to kiss her, and then leave her for Jasper, but she has other ideas.

"My turn," she says, then pushes me to stand as she sits up. I let her take off my shirt, tossing it to the floor, but when she starts for the clasp on my bra, I protest.

"No, that's Edward's," I say. She smiles, then moves on to my skirt. Once it's off and I'm left in just my underwear, her fingers dip into the right side of my bra, pulling it down and letting my nipple pop out. She takes it into her mouth, letting her tongue swirl over it again and again as her hands rake up and down my body.

"Come here," she says, laying back on the bed. I figure she means she wants me on top of her, but when I move to hover over her, she laughs. "No, silly. I want your pussy, here," she says, pointing to her mouth.

A quiver goes through me, and I climb onto the bed, one knee on each side of her. Soon enough I'm straddling her face, and her fingers are moving my panties aside as her tongue begins to flick my clit over and over again. Jasper's full on groaning and sweating in his chair, and when I glance over to Edward, I see his hand on his cock. He can't wait anymore, though he has yet to undo his pants.

I rock back and forth, enjoying the feel of Alice's lips, tongue, and teeth on me. My hands move over my body, and my head falls back as my eyes close. This is something I could do forever and ever, and it's not until I feel another hand on me and a low growl that I'm brought back to reality. Jasper is behind me, his cock out and hard and between Alice's thighs. His hand is on my hip, his fingers digging into my skin, and I can see a fire in Edward's eyes that I've never seen before. As much as I may want to stay right where I am, and enjoy the little menage a trois that seems to be starting, I need Edward.

Standing up from the bed, I walk into the living room, my eyes connected with Edward's. When I reach him, I lean down and undo his jeans, pulling them open and letting his rock hard dick out. I stand up between his legs and push my fingers into his mouth. He sucks them in, letting his tongue and lips take in any drop of Alice that's still there. He's like a starving man as I watch his eyes slide closed while I pump my fingers into his hot mouth over and over again. After a minute or two, I pull them away and reach for his hands.

"Strip me," I say, lifting his hands to the center clasp on the front of my bra. He does as I say, unhooking the bra and slowly removing it from my body. He's leaning forward, his lips taking in each of my nipples as his hands move to my panties, pulling them down and leaving them on the floor. I run my hands through his hair as I arch into him, loving the feel of him against me.

"Such a naughty girl you are," he says, his hands grabbing my hips and pulling me forward. I straddle his waist, hovering over his cock, and then slowly lower myself until he's completely filling me.

"Ugh, Edward, so good."

His hands stay on my hips, and he begins to move me back and forth. From the other room, I can hear the grunts and groans and slapping skin of Alice and Jasper, and I place my hands on the back of the couch, giving me more leverage. I slide up and down Edward's cock, letting him suck my tits as they bounce in front of his face.

"Bella, oh yeah," he says, mumbling a few swear words as I continue to ride him. The feeling is so much more intense with him than it was with Alice, and I can't stop myself from falling over the edge. I move faster and faster, thrusting down harder and harder, and he shifts up to meet me with each movement.

"Edward," I mumble as my head falls back and I begin to shake as my orgasm takes over my body. I can feel it from my toes to my fingers to my head, and it feels so good, I don't ever want it to stop. All the alcohol I drank earlier in the night just makes my ecstasy last that much longer, and soon I hear Edward grunting right along with me as he pounds up into me for all he's worth.

I can hear Jasper and Alice cursing and moaning behind me, though I can't see them. I tell myself that if we ever do this again, I'm putting a mirror on the wall behind the sofa before it happens. Especially since I can see Edward staring over my shoulder and watching the couple in the other room. Once I'm done, I turn for just a moment and see them laying still with each other, and Jasper kissing her hard, yet sweetly.

"Kiss me," Edward says, and I do. I know he can taste Alice on my lips, and I wonder if he likes it. I wonder if it tastes like she did on my fingers. I wonder if she tastes like other women he's been with. I wonder how many other women he's tasted. My mind begins to race, most likely due to the fact that I'm still drunk and no where near over my jealousy about his past romances. But I try to put it out of my mind for the moment and just enjoy him. I know I don't have him for much longer, and I don't want to ruin the time we do have left together.

After a few more minutes of kissing, I lean my head on Edward's shoulder and close my eyes. Before I know it, I'm asleep and when I wake up, I have no idea how long it's been, but my apartment is dark and Edward is still inside me, though he's soft.

"What time is it?" I ask.

"It's been an hour or so. Jasper and Alice left a while ago. It's still late, I don't have to leave for a few more hours. You want to go to bed?"

I mumble a yes, and soon I feel him lifting me into his arms and carrying me to my bed. I watch through bleary eyes as he undresses and then slides in next to me, pulling me back into his arms.

I let myself melt against him, knowing in the back of my still fuzzy mind that I only have one more night with him after this. Beyond that, nothing is for certain. I don't know if he'll want me again, or if he'll even come back. But there's nothing I can do to stop the inevitable.

I have to let him go.

~*0*~

"Bella."

The room is still a little dark, and I pull the blanket over my head—which is pounding at the moment.

"Bella, wake up."

I can hear Edward's voice, and he's so loud. Then there's the ringing in my ears, that's loud, too.

"Come on, wake up. I have to go."

Edward's going? Going where? Suddenly I remember...he's leaving. Is that today? Is my time with him already up? I sit up quickly, everything spinning as I grab my head.

"Ohhhh, my head," I groan.

Edward quietly laughs as he sits next to me. "Maybe you shouldn't have drank so much last night, huh?"

"Yeah, whatever. How much did I drink?"

The whole night is hazy, but from the cotton mouth I've got going on, I think I drank a lot. I also seem to recall dancing and then fooling around here in my apartment. I hope I didn't do anything too embarrassing.

"You drank a lot, trust me. Enough to make you brave, let's just say that."

Brave? Oh, that doesn't sound good. "What did I do?"

I open one eye and stare him down when he doesn't say anything. His lips turn up in a handsome, yet devilish little smirk. "You and Alice gave Jasper a little birthday present. Lucky for me, I got to enjoy it, too."

Me and Alice? I'm trying to remember what we did, when all of the sudden images start flashing in my head.

"I fucked her?" I ask.

"Not quite, you tongue fucked her, which was just as good, in my opinion. Then she returned the favor before you finally put me out of my misery and fucked me."

"Ah crap, I haven't done that in so long. I hope I was good."

Edward laughs at me, reaching up and smoothing my hair down. I'm sure it looks crazy and wild, but my head hurts too much for me to care.

"Lie down, go back to sleep. I have to go. I'm pretty sure Jasper's going to be useless today, and I've got a lot to do if I'm going to leave town tomorrow."

His words remind me, yet again, that he's leaving for at least eight months tomorrow, if he comes back at all.

"Will I see you tonight?" he asks.

"Yeah, I'm working this afternoon, but not tonight."

"Good, come over when you're done. If I'm not there, use the key in the bushes and let yourself in. Wait for me, I'll bring dinner."

"Okay," I say, snuggling back into my bed. His hand trails down my cheek a few times and I listen to him breathe.

"Bye, Bella," he whispers, before I feel him press a kiss to my forehead, then stand from the bed and walk out of the room. The front door clicks closed, and he's gone. I hold tight to my head, trying to put pressure where it hurts the most, and fall back asleep within minutes.

~*0*~

The day passes faster than I'd like, especially once my headache goes away. By evening, I know I need to go to Edward's, so that I can see him for as long as possible.

"Hey, Bella," Leah yells to me. I'm in the office, finishing up the small bit of paperwork I was able to get through today.

"Yeah?"

"I got something for you." In her hand she's holding a little pot with a plant in it. On the plant are some yellow bell shaped flowers. "You know my mom has that green house she grows all those plants in? Well, she loves growing flowers in it year round, and I saw this one and thought of you. It's called a Yellow Bell and it's native to Washington. I thought maybe you could give it to Edward, as a way for him to remember you. You know, Bells from Washington?"

Her gesture makes my eyes tear up. I'm already emotional over Edward leaving, but then for her to do something so thoughtful, especially when she hasn't been the biggest fan of me seeing Edward, just makes my heart swell with gratitude.

"Thank you so much, I love it."

She hugs me for several seconds, before pulling away from me.

"Edward's a good man, Bella. Just remember that, okay? I know this will be hard for you, but he's not doing it to hurt you, and he'll be back next year." She gently pushes my hair away from my face, tucking it behind my ears. "Keep hold of your emotions until he's gone, okay? You can do it, I know you can."

I nod, hoping to convince myself as much as I want to convince her

Taking the plant, I leave the bar, walking over to Edward's apartment and enjoying the quiet night air. I can smell the salt from the water, and it reminds me of the way Edward smells. I know his leaving may break my heart, but I can't let him see it. I can't put pressure on him. He was honest with me from the very beginning of our relationship, and I can't ask for more than he was willing to give. Especially not when I agreed to his terms from the very first moment we were together.

His apartment is dark when I get here, so I find the spare key he told me about, and let myself in. I leave the lights off, curling up on the sofa while I wait. About an hour passes before I hear his key in the door.

"Hey, I thought you weren't here. Why are you sitting in the dark?" he asks, flipping on the lights.

I give him the best smile I can. "No reason, I was just taking in the quiet and thinking about what I'm going to do around here without you."

He smiles. "You'll stay so busy, you won't even know I'm gone. Plus, just think of all the time you can spend with your dad and Rose now that the off season is coming."

He sits down next to me, putting his arm around my shoulders and pulling me close.

"I brought burgers. You hungry?"

I'm not, but I say yes anyway, and I eat everything he bought for me. We spend the evening talking about his trip and the places he'll go. I give him the plant and tell him it's to remind him of me while he's gone. We go to bed early and after having sex, he holds me until he thinks I've fallen asleep, then he finally nods off. Once he's snoring lightly, I let the tears come, and I press my body as close to his as I can. I don't want to let him go.

He wakes me up bright and early, telling me he has to leave, and that I can stay in his bed as long as I want. I don't want to stay without him, plus I want to see him off at the harbor. Once we're both dressed, I watch him move around the apartment gathering things and double checking to make sure he's got everything he needs.

We walk down the street to the harbor, getting to his boat far too quickly. Most of his crew is already there, and they look like ants scurrying around an ant hill. They each say hello to me as they pass by, and I move out of the way so that Edward can get to work. There's a bench a little ways off, and I sit and watch the men ready the ship for the several weeks of traveling that they'll do. Edward told me it will be a couple of weeks before they get to Argentina, but I didn't ask specifics. I don't want to know.

Jasper shows up alone, with no Alice in sight, and he waves, smiling bashfully at me. I'm a little embarrassed about the other night, but I don't let it bother me.

"Hey, we're all ready. I just wanted to say good bye. I've got your address, so I'll write when I can."

I stand up and hug Edward, listening to his words and then letting several seconds pass before I speak.

"Couldn't you get a cell phone or something? So I can talk to you? Or use the boat phone? How am I supposed to find you? If I need you, what am I supposed to do?"

I can't help the words that are flying out of my mouth. I've done so well up until now, keeping all of my clinginess inside. I can't contain it anymore, and I feel him stiffen as I hang on to him.

"This is why I don't stay with one girl very long. I don't want it to be this way, Bella. I told you from the start, I don't want you waiting around for me. It's not fair to anyone. I should have known this would happen."

He's speaking to me, as well as making random comments to himself, and I can feel him pulling away. I can't have that, I need him to come back next year. I sniffle a bit, and wipe away the tears that have slid down my cheeks.

"I'm sorry, I didn't mean to do that. I know what you said, and I'm sorry. I'm just emotional is all. I'm going to miss you." I smile up at him, and make it the most convincing smile I can.

"Bella...just, don't wait around, okay? Eight months is a long time. I don't want you to be alone. Even when I do come back next year, I still can't promise you anything. That's just not my life—my life's not here. I'm so sorry, I'm just trying to be honest." His eyes burn into mine and I know he's telling the truth. He doesn't want to hurt me, he's just doing what he does. What he's always done. I can't fault him for that.

Reaching up, I kiss him softly, letting my fingers twist in his hair one last time.

"I'll see ya around, sailor," I whisper.

He smiles. "I'll see you around."

He walks backward toward the boat, smiling at me as he goes. I pretend like I've never pretended before, and I hold everything in, except for the false happiness I'm giving him. It's the best thing I can do, for both of us, so I do it.

I stand there watching as he gets on the boat, pulling in one of the ropes that's held them to the dock.

"Be careful out there," I yell.

He winks. "Always am."

And then he's gone. I watch until I can't see the boat in the distance anymore. Whether it's too far away or just blurry from my tear filled eyes, I don't know. He went into the cabin and never looked back. I have to be okay with that, even if I'm not. I slowly walk back to the bar, climb the stairs to my apartment, and go inside. Shedding my clothes, I put on a T-shirt of his that he left here one night, and climb into my bed. Sobs take over my body and I can't fight them. As bad as this feels—watching him walk away from me—I have to hope that this is just the beginning. I have to hope that he'll be back, and that he'll want me again. I can't even imagine how much it will hurt of I never get anything else from him.

I close my eyes and cry, shaking and rocking in a fetal position, knowing that this most likely isn't the last time in my life that I'll cry myself to sleep over Edward Cullen.

~*0*~ EPOV ~*0*~

I have to get out of here. This girl...she's fucking with my head.

I never let myself get attached. Never. Sure, I have a few regular girls, but they know the deal. They like the deal. They get what they want, I get what I want, we're both happy.

But Bella...I know I hurt her, and I hate that I did. But what could I do? I told her from the beginning, and she agreed. I can't be responsible for her now, not after she let herself get in deeper than she should have.

I point the boat toward the Pacific and push the throttle hard. I need to get to Argentina fast.

I think Jasper needs it, too. We've only been gone a few minutes, and he's already pouting over Alice.

I know the guys want to stop in San Francisco and Cabo San Lucas, but I'm not stopping until Acapulco. They'll be mad, but I don't care.

The faster I can get us to Mar Del Plata, the faster I can get us to Carmen and Maria, and the faster me and Jasper can fuck Bella and Alice out of our systems.

And I need to fuck her out of my head.

Before I turn around and ruin everything.
