Ok, basically, I'm the biggest bitch ever. I haven't updated in FOREVER and you have no idea how truly sorry i am. There was just a lot going on, and then my computer crashed, and everything was just a mess. So I'm truly truly sorry.
I tried to make this a really good chapter, I hope you think so too.
Chapter 10 -
I zipped up my duffel in one swift motion and longingly glanced over at Edward who was sitting over my bed. Since the team had been doing extremely well this season, we were 16 and 1, we were invited to play at the Fall Beach Classic. It was a tournament in Northern California and I was extremely psyched to go. The only thing that was making me sad was that bronze haired boy I wouldn't get to see for 4 days.
It physically hurt to be separated from him now. He completely took over my life. Every thought was about him, every change I considered him, everything involved him. He was my life now.
"I'm gonna miss you so much," I said standing up and walking over to him.
He stood up and pulled me into a tight hug. "I'll miss you more," he said burying his head in the crook of my neck.
"What am I going to over Thanksgiving break? I'm not gonna be able to be with you 24/7 and that's going to kill me."
"I know love, but we only live 20 minutes away from each other. I'm sure Esme would love to do Thanksgiving together."
"Really?" I said, my face suddenly lighting up. Then I realized I had about 5 minutes left with my beloved boyfriend. My mood suddenly deflated again.
We walked out to the coach bus, yes a coach bus, one of the many pluses of a successful boarding school, and parted with one quick kiss.
I grabbed the window seat next to Alice and shoved my headphones in my ears. I turned the music to the loudest it would go. I closed my eyes, tears threatening to spill, and leaned my head against the cool window.
When I next opened my eyes the California sun was high in the sky and we were parked outside of a hotel.
"How long was I asleep?" I grumbled to Alice.
"The whole 4 hours Bella. You were very boring to sit next to!" she huffed "I couldn't even talk fashion with you!"
We headed off the bus and checked in. Rosalie and I were sharing a room while Alice was sharing one with Angela.
I slid my key card into the door and it opened with a click. I stepped in and it immediately smelled of vanilla. The room was huge! Another plus of going to a successful boarding school. There were two queen size beds with gold comforters and a night stand in between the beds. The wallpaper was a mix of gold and cream and the floor was a cream color. On the opposite end of the room was a sliding glass door that opened up to a balcony. The balcony looked over the city, and it looked beautiful.
"Holy shit, Rose! This is awesome!"
"Mhmm, you'll enjoy it!" I'll enjoy it? Huh?
Before I could ask there was a slight knock on the door. After the slight knock there were three louder poundings on the door. Alice.
"Jeez Al, chill," Rosalie yelled back. She opened the door, enough for me to see it was Alice, and then was grabbed by the little pixie out of sight. What where they up to?
I started to unpack my clothes, leaving the left side of the dresser drawers for Rose's stuff. After I put away all of my stuff, way too much thanks to Alice, I pulled out my laptop and turned up the music.
I thought I heard a slight knock on the door, but I wasn't sure because of the music. I just ignored it. Suddenly there was louder pounding. Alice again? Wait she was with Rose.
"Damn Rose, don't you have a key?" I said shutting off the music and padded over to the door.
My jaw dropped. He was here! I blinked twice to make sure I wasn't dreaming. "Edward!" I shrieked sounding like Alice and throwing my arms around his neck.
He chuckled in my ear and shivers were sent up my spine. "Miss me, love?"
"You have no idea! What are you doing here?" I asked while pulling back to give him a slight kiss on the lips.
"We're all here, me, Emmett, Jasper." He pushed me back further into the room and shut the door with his foot. "Now I wasn't done kissing you."
He gently pushed me down onto the bed, placing kisses along my jaw line. My fingers where knotted in his hair and I pulled his lips back to mine. His tongue traced my bottom lip, practically begging for entrance. I gladly let him even though he probably had the inside of my mouth memorized by now.
We eventually pulled back for air, both of our breaths ragged. "Well, if I was only gone from you for a couple of hours and I get that, I might have to do that more often," I teased. I knew I could never really be away from him that long.
"You can get this anytime, love. All you have to do is ask." He gently kissed me one more time and proceeded to get off of me. I missed the warmth.
"Are you staying in here tonight?" I practically begged him.
"Do you want me to?"
I simply nodded in response, biting my lower lip in anticipation.
"Silly Bella, of course I am. I came here with Em, Jazz, and Ben, Angela's boyfriend. We're all staying with each other. Em got him and Rose another room, as did Ben. So we're all alone tonight," he said the last part with a playful smirk.
"Come on, get ready," he commanded. "We're going out to a romantic dinner."
"Uh, Edward, I don't have anything remotely fancy for a romantic dinner. I mostly have my volleyball stuff and sweats. Unless you want me wearing my spandex around the city."
He nodded his head eagerly as his eyes got wide. "You could definitely do that!" I rolled my eyes at him and he chuckled. "One word, Pixie."
I considered this for a moment. "Yes, Alice would be the one person to bring dresses to a volleyball tournament."
He chuckled again, god I loved his laugh. "Well, to give her some credit, I told her I wanted tonight to be perfect, so I told her to pack you some stuff."
"Smooth, Cullen. Wait – everyone else knew you guys were coming?" He nodded his head. 'That's so not fair!"
"Well I didn't want to tell you cause I wanted it to be a surprise. I told you I wanted tonight to be perfect." He flashed that crooked grin I couldn't resist.
"You know I hate surprises," I faked whined.
"Even if the surprise is me?" he mocked walking over towards me.
"Well," I said sliding my arms around his waist pulling him closer to me, "I guess if the surprise is you it's a good one."
"Only good?" he raised an eyebrow, smugly smiling.
"Amazing." I stood on my tiptoes and pecked him on the lips. "Now I have to go get ready," I said slipping out of his arms and grabbing my toiletries. I padded out of the room and over to Alice's.
"What took you so long Bella? We only have an hour and a half to get you ready!" she huffed and she stormed back into her room, leaving the door open for me to follow. I glanced at my phone. God, it was already 5. Where had all the time went?
She shoved me into the shower, and demanded that I had fifteen minutes or she was coming in and dragging me out herself. I really didn't doubt her, I mean it is Alice. I quickly let the steaming hot water relax me as the strawberry scent of my shampoo swirled around in the air.
14 and ½ minutes later, Alice was pounding on the door for me to get out. She was literally counting down the last thirty seconds. Thank god I was already shampooed, conditioned, washed, and shaved. I stepped out and turned off the water, which shut her up.
Out on the bed where three dresses picked. How the hell did she fit that in her suitcases? One was black and low cut. It ended in a tight, thick green band around about mid thigh and bubbled over. The next was a deep red that came to around my knees. It was a tight halter around my chest but then flowed off into the skirt part of it. The third and final was midnight blue. It was short sleeved and synched around my chest. It turned into a baby doll and hit around mid thigh. They were all gorgeous.
"So Bella, I'm gonna be nice and let you choose your own outfit for once." I gave her a surprised look. "Don't get used to it," she joked.
"I like the blue one, definitely."
"Good choice Bella! That's Edward's favorite color on you!"
"I don't even want to know why you know that."
She pushed me into a chair in front of the mirror and called Rose to come and help he with my hair. She began blow-drying it and about 5 minutes later Rose walked in, carrying a blow dryer.
"Damn Bella, why do you have so much hair?" Rose complained. I blushed.
Once the finished blow drying it the took a thick barreled curling iron and started curling my hair. When they had gotten each piece they ran their fingers through my hair, causing it to fall in delicate waves.
They then started on my makeup. They applied dark eye shadow and black eye liner. They swiped mascara across my lashes and a soft pink gloss across my lips. No blush was necessary, I mean come on, it was me.
I opened my eyes to see an absolutely stunning girl sitting where I was supposed to be. You think by now after the hundreds of Bella Barbies that I'd be used to how good they could make a Plain Jane like me look, but I really wasn't. They somehow managed to make me of all people pretty. That was an almost impossible task.
They helped me into my dress, not wanting me to ruin their masterpiece that I call my face. I slipped into silver heels, not even bothering to argue about the height considering it wasn't an argument I was going to win. I had a matching silver bag that I threw my phone and other necessities in and I was off to meet Edward back at our room.
It was already 6:28, and I was determined to be on time, just like he always was. I was practically running to get to the room, but trying not to trip either. It was an extremely difficult task.
I managed to make it to the room, stumbling a few times but not fully tripping, at exactly 6:30. I raised my hand to knock on the door, but it was swiftly opened before my fist could actually make contact with the door.
I was so shocked I stumbled back a bit. Before falling I felt Edward catch me around my waist. Damn that man was good.
"Thanks," I mumbled back, blushing.
"For saving you or scaring the living daylights out of you?" he joked
"Both," I smiled and reached up to kiss him.
"Bella, you're makeup!" Alice shrieked from down the hall. When the hell did she get here?
I broke away from Edward and we both rolled out eyes at her.
"Come on, let's go," he said grabbing my hand and leading me to the elevator.
We drove to a cute little Italian restaurant where we got seated at a private table near the back. We were almost the only people in that section of the restaurant. Very romantic.
"This is beautiful, Edward," I said reaching across the table and holding his hand in mine.
"Yes, you are." I blushed.
"You're too good to me."
"Trust me, I'm not good enough."
We both ordered mushroom ravioli and a coke. The food was amazing! The best was the cheesecake we had for dessert. It was absolutely to die for.
We were now back at our hotel room, standing on the balcony looking out at the city. I rested my hands on the railing while his hands where on either side of me, my back to his front.
"Bella," he whispered. It sent shivers down my spine.
I turned around to face him, staring into those endless liquid emerald eyes. He was too perfect. It was then that I realized, I loved Edward Cullen.
"Bella," he said again. He was staring right into my eyes. "I love you."
My breath got caught in my throat. Edward, the most perfect man on the planet, loved me? I couldn't believe it. Words where not enough to descried my feelings at this moment.
I wrapped my arms around his neck and pulled myself so I was face to face with him. Our faces where just centimeters apart. "I love you too, Edward. With all of my heart." I sincerely meant it.
A smile broke across his flawless face. He leaned down and kissed me. It wasn't as intense as some of our other kisses, it was filled with passion and love. He was telling me how much he loved me, and I just hoped I was showing my emotions to him.
We broke apart and he whispered those three magical words again.
"I love you more," I responded.
"Impossible." I giggled. If he loved me more than I loved him, then he loved me a whole lot.
"Well, now that we're in love," I said sliding my hands underneath his blue button-down shirt, "I was thinking we could do something."
I heard his breath hitch as he shivered from my cold hands rubbing his perfect abs and chest. He simply nodded his head and replied, "Are you sure?"
"Absolutely." I leaned up to kiss him.
Somehow we managed on the bed. I was on top of him, straddling him. I suddenly sat up and stared at him, liking the fore play. I rocked my hips gently into him. I could feel him getting harder underneath me. "Mmm, that's my boy," I grinned devilishly.
"Now Bella, love," he managed to flip us over. "As much as I love this dress on you, I'd much prefer it off of you." He slid it over my head and started reaching for his top buttons.
"My job," I playfully growled back and reached for his shirt. I finally managed to get it off. I admired his perfectly sculpted chest and abs for a moment to long before his lips were on mine again.
I reached for his belt while is fingers slipped in and out of the band of my underwear. I slid his belt through the loops and unzipped his pants. I wanted him.
We were finally completely undressed and getting somewhere. "Edward, as much as I love the fore play, I need you," I begged.
He slid a condom on and right before entering me stared me straight in the eyes. "I love you Isabella Marie Swan." I normally hated my full name, but it was just too perfect in this moment.
"I love you too." He then plunged into me.
. . .
"That was," I gasped as Edward rolled off of me, both of our chests heaving for air.
"Completely amazing," he finished.
Since I'm such a bitch, you don't even need to review
