I had just gotten out of the shower when my cell phone beeped with a new text.

-Might as well just wear your pj's bitches, cause you're all sleeping here tonight. Love yas! –A.

I groaned the second I read that text, because sure enough, that meant we were all getting hammered tonight.

I slipped into my pajamas, a white tank top and grey shorts that were a little too short. I knew it was a little chilly out tonight, so I threw on some sweat pants and a hoody over top. Just as I had finished pulling up my pants, my phone dinged a second time.

-Do you want a ride to Alice's tonight? It's on my way. - E.

I thought about his proposition and decided that it was a good idea. I quickly sent my reply of approval, and patiently waited for him to arrive. I saw him pull into my driveway, and walked out of the house.

"Hey, Felix," I greeted him as I hopped into his car. He immediately smirked, so I knew he understood my One Tree Hill reference about Felix and Brooke, who had been incredible friends with benefits.

"Hey Bells, you excited about tonight?"

"Hah, definitely not."

The rest of the drive to Ali's was spent in a relaxing silence. When we arrived at the house of impending doom, everyone else was already there. Rose and Alice were looking at movie selections, and Emmett and Jasper were bickering about something.

"Eddie, my man!" Edward cringed as Emmett greeted him. "Can you come settle a little dispute between Jasper and I?"

"Yes, Edward, please do help," came from Jasper, whom had obviously already had a few beers as he was speaking very loud. On the whole, Jasper had a quiet voice, and he rarely raised it. But when he got drunk, he was nearly as loud as Alice. "Emmett thinks that the hottest TV character is Serena from Gossip Girls, which is totally not true and I-"

He was cut off by Emmett's booming mouth, "And the pansy over here thinks that it's Annie from 90210. As if."

I was in complete hysterics at this point, laughing about their knowledge of chick shows. But, I quickly sobered up in time to hear Edward's response.

"Well, they're both hot, but you're both wrong. Brooke Davis from One Tree Hill definitely wins that award." His eyes never once left my face as he spoke, and he winked at me once he was finished. Wow, way to be subtle Edward.

To my complete shock, both guys agreed with him.

"We've got it!" A double shriek, in the voices of Alice and Rose, came from the living room.

"We are watching The Hangover." Alice's tone was demanding, letting us all know that there would be no protests.

Alice popped the movie in, and we all took our usual spots; Alice and Jasper on the recliner, Em and Rose on the chaise lounge, and Edward and I on the couch. This routine only ever changed if Edward had a girlfriend, in which case, I would sit on the love seat, but it was a very rare occasion that Edward ever kept anyone around long enough to bring her to a movie night.

"Fuck yes, I love this movie," Emmett's obnoxious proclaim was heard over the opening credits.

Emmett was right though, The Hangover was a hysterical movie. My favorite part; "They give out rings in the Holocaust?!?!?!"

I spent the entire movie snuggled into Edward's side as he drew lazy circles on my arm. It was incredibly comforting. I knew sitting like that wouldn't tip our friends off, because that's just how Edward and I were. We always sat together.

-*-

Once the movie was over, the alcohol was brought out. Alice forcibly made us each do three shots of tequila to loosen us up so we could play spill the beans. Spill the beans was basically our own rendition of truth or truth, in which whoever was answering the question had to answer it 100% truthfully and had to give the complete story behind it. We also twisted in spin the bottle to see who would have to answer the question. It was games like this that usually left us in embarrassment.

"I wanna go first! I wanna go first!" Emmett was all but bouncing up and down like a little girl as he said this.

Round and round the bottle went until it landed on Jasper.

"Okay, Jazz," Emmett started, "When was your last wet dream?"

"I don't really remember; it's been a while."

"Oh Jasper, don't lie. We had to change the sheets Wednesday night." Everyone was in tears of laughter at Alice's statement, with the exception of Jasper, whose blush was brighter than Elmo.

We all looked at him expectantly, waiting for his explanation.

"Well that doesn't really count. Sure, I was having a really good dream about Megan Fox, but Alice was also groping me. So, in reality it wasn't my fault." He said all this with slurred dignity that only made everyone laugh harder.

In an attempt to make everyone forget about his admission, Jasper quickly spun the bottle, which ended up landing on Edward. Edward grimaced, awaiting the question, while Jazz pondered. All of a sudden a smirk appeared across Jasper's face.

"Who gave you your first erection?"

Apparently our theme tonight was questions about sex.

Edward, who was not even close to being as intoxicated as Jasper, quickly mumbled an answer that no one else heard.

"What was that Edward?" Alice inquired.

This time Edward's face showed confidence, "I said, 'it was Bella.'" It was my turn to blush at his statement.

He looked at me, and chuckled for a moment before continuing.

"Well, it was the summer after we had turned 12, and we were all going swimming. Bella came over and had on this teeny purple bikini on. What can I say? It was the first time I noticed you had boobs. I was really surprised when my friend popped up to say hello though, that definitely wasn't expected. I remember running to Carlisle and asking him what the hell was going on."

"Oh, that's where you went that day, Edward." Alice said in response.

Emmett's thoughts came next, "I'm hurt bro, you didn't tell me that little Belly Boo here was turning you on."

Rosalie also decided to add her two cents, "Like we all didn't see that one coming." She'd never get over it…

Again, everyone was laughing, except for me. I was thoroughly mortified. However, after that mortification passed, it was replaced by excitement and joy. I had caused Edward's first erection; that was something to be proud of.

The game continued on, and I was still free from answering a question. That was until Alice spun the bottle and it landed dead on. I guess I had spoke too soon, jinxed myself so to speak.

"Bella, Bella Bella…" Alice said in a taunting tone as I awaited my fate. "When was that last time you got yourself off to porn?"

My mouth was gaping; did she really just ask that? That was a brazen question, even for Alice.

"Oh shit son," Emmett said, and then proceeded to giggle like a school girl along with everyone else in the room. For once, I wished I had been thoroughly trashed before this happened. But of all nights, Ali picked tonight to let us stay sober.

I finally decided to just suck it up and answer the question. "I've never had an orgasm while watching porn…" I trailed off at the end as a huge blush covered me from head to toe.

It was everyone else's chance to gape in surprise.

"You mean you never watched porn?" Alice asked in disbelief.

"No, I have seen it, Alice. I've just never experienced an orgasm to it."

"Wow, that's absolutely incredible." This was Edward's comment, and I didn't quite know how to take it.

After my complete mortification, the game continued on, and the bottle didn't land on me again. I was lucky tonight.

The only other issue that had taken place was when Rosalie decided to ask Edward who he had kissed last. I froze, expecting him to say me, but relaxed as soon as he said Esme. Thankfully, Edward had lunch with his mother earlier in the day and had kissed her goodbye. This saved our secret from everyone. When he was sure no one else was looking, he winked at me for the second time that night in reassurance.

The saying time flies when you're having fun really is true, and before we knew it, it was time to go to sleep. Everyone was to sleep in the living room. Usually the sleeping arrangements are the same as when we are watching a movie, except I sleep on the floor while Edward takes the couch. I'm not really sure why this is, considering we have certainly slept next to each other before, but that's just the way things were.

I made my way to the bathroom, stripped off my excess clothing, and brushed my teeth. When I reentered the living room, I saw Edward's eyes skim over my scantily clad body quickly, but surely. I did an internal happy dance. It was odd; seeing myself cause a reaction in Edward, but I absolutely loved it. It was nice, that for once, I was not the only one in our best friend duet that was ogling the other.

As I made my way to my usual spot on the floor, I was completely caught off guard when I felt Edward's arms wrap around my waste. He quickly pulled me onto the couch with him.

He shifted us into a laying down position. "You can sleep right here tonight," he murmured very quietly in my ear. He placed a quick kiss on my forehead, then another on the tip of my nose, again making sure no one was watching, and pulled me in to snuggle.

I was getting very, very use to sleeping next to Edward. And I was really starting to like it. As we lay there, he hummed a random rhythm all while running his hand up and down my back. It caused conflicting feelings to stir in body. One half of me wanted to close my eyes and drift into an easy sleep, the other half wanted to roughly pull his face to mine and kiss him with everything I had. I decided, due to where we were, to close my eyes. I fell asleep a little too fast, because I was getting a little too comfortable with where I was sleeping.


This chapter took me forever to write. I restarted it like five times. I am really happy this one is done now. :]

So, as always, let me know how you felt about this.
