No more babbling! Gee!

Chapter 10?

Bella's POV! (As always...)

I tried to roll over, finally waking from my sleep. However I couldn't roll over since Edward had his arms wrapped firmly around me, making escape impossible. Not that I mind. I was sprawled out across his body, my head on his chest and my arms wrapped around him tightly. I opened my eyes and sighed, tomorrow I would be home.

Home.

I pushed against Edward's chest and broke my way out of his arms. I sat up and put my hands on his shoulder. I began to shake him; I was trying to wake him up.

"Edward." I groaned. He mumbled something incoherently and rolled over to hide his face in the pillow. Edward really isn't a morning person. I smirked and began to shake him some more.

"Edward," I repeated and I shook him again.

"Mmmhmhaat." Edward mumbled into the pillow. I was trying to hold back my laugh while replying. I wasn't doing a very good job, so I just let it out.

"Edward wake up! I can't understand you." I laughed. He rolled over and rubbed his eyes before he opened them.

"Wakey wakey," I giggled as I continued to shake him in effort to wake him from his sleep. In a way- in many ways- I hated waking him up from his sleep. He looked so peaceful and I hated disturbing that. I heard him sigh into the pillow.

"Why do I have to wake up?" He asked in a childish voice. I smiled down at him before replying.

"We have to go on the road!" I replied and I tried to sound excited.

"Why?" Edward asked me dumbly and his expression matched his tone.

"So we can get home." I said, stating the obvious. I leaned down and placed a quick kiss to his right cheek. I felt him smile in return and when I pulled back Edward replied.

"Lets just make this our home." Edward grumbled and pulled a pillow up to cover his face, zoning out the light.

"Lets not." I argued and pulled the pillow away from him. I tossed it too the side, fighting the urge to hit him with it first. I placed my hands on his shoulders and tried to shake him to get up. He got the point and finally agreed with me.

"Fine." He said as he gave in and got up.


"So this is our last day, tomorrow around noon we should be home if we keep up at this pace." Edward explained while he was driving. I could tell we were getting closer because I could remember some stores and street names surprisingly.

"Are you excited to get home?" Edward asked me suddenly. I shrugged my shoulders not really knowing my answer.

"Kind of. My dad will be surprised for sure." I laughed imagining his face when he saw me on his door step. I really hoped he wouldn't mind.

"He will be." Edward chuckled.

"What if he doesn't want me back, what if he wants me to go somewhere far far away instead?" I asked suddenly worried.

"Bella stop doing the what if's, your father loves you and he will be so glad to have you back." Edward told me. I sighed trying to force myself to believe Edward's words.

"I hope you're right..." I mumbled.

"Oh, you know I am." He joked and I laughed.

"Yeah you're right." I agreed.

"Anyways, if he isn't -which he is- I'm glad to have you back anyways, so it wasn't for nothing." He admitted and I leaned over to kiss his cheek. I let my lips linger for a moment.

"Oh yeah, I'm coming back just for you." I purred into his ear. I made sure to breathe heavily into his ear, as in an experiment to see how he would react. I looked over and saw his hands tightening on the steering wheel.

Success.

I took off my seatbelt and slid into the middle seat of the front of his truck so I could be closer to him. I did up the middle seatbelt and just traced my fingers up and down his right thigh.

His breathing hitched.

Success. Again.

I pressed my nose against his neck and breathed in deeply.

"Bella." He warned. I giggled and placed a kiss into his hair beside his ear.

"What?" I purred into his ear innocently.

"You're pushing some limits." He warned me. His hands on the wheel somehow tightened.

"Limits?" I gasped joking and sarcastically asked, "We have limits?"

"You know what I mean." Edward growled.

"Nope, not to sure about what you are talking about, sorry." I said pretending to sound unintelligent about this conversation.

"Well unless you want me to pull over this vechile and do naughty things to you- you might want to stop." He warned.

"Why wouldn't I want that?" I asked stupidly.


The day went by all to fast, it was by far the quickest day of the entire trip. I guessed it went by quicker and smoother because Edward and I were now comfortable around each other again. When he first arrived to take me on this trip back home I was pissed that he never talked to me over the years, but slowly we found out neither of us had a chance to speak because of Alice. Now we are dating and even more comfortable around each other. Truthfully I wouldn't have it any other way.

For dinner Edward brought me to a really fancy restuarant.

"Why did you bring me here?" I asked, dying to know his answer. He chuckled and I wondered what was so funny.

"Isabella," He spoke my whole name, "Its our last full day on this trip, you're my girlfriend and I just wanted to. Do you need any more reasons than that?"

"I guess not, but McDonald's or Burger King would have been just as fine." I aruged.

"Not for me," He smiled. He pointed to my plate with his fork.

"Eat up," He instructed. I looked down at my plate, stabbed my salad around a bit before taking a bite. It was rather good, but I still would have been fine with a small diner or a fast food place instead.

"Are we staying somewhere uber special tonight too?" I asked sarcastically.

"Can you read my mind?" Edward asked in reply. I rolled my eyes.

"You don't have too-" I started but Edward cut me off.

"I want too. Its just a fancy hotel, not like I bought us a mansion for the night." He chuckled. I sighed.

"Hotels are expensive." I argued more with him.

"I've got the money." He replied defensively, as if I insulted him. Damn.

"I didn't mean it that way-" I started.

"I know what you meant." He assured me.

"I just don't like you spending money on me." I admitted as I looked down at the table, refusing to make any sort of eye contact with him.

"That's because you're stubborn." He explained. I looked up at him with narrowed eyes. "But I love that about you."

"Yeah, its a really great trait of mine." I replied sarcastically. He chuckled and took a sip of his champange, yes, champange. That is how fancy a restuarant he took me to.

"As is your sarcasm." He added, and I couldn't help but to laugh. Edward always lightened the mood.

"You know, my libido has improved since you came back into my life." I joked and winked at him.

"Oh really?" He asked suggestively and wiggled his eyebrows.


"This is it!" Edward exclaimed excitedly as we pulled into a large parking lot to a mansion. Oh wait... that's our hotel. Wrong address, Edward?

I sure hoped so.

It was over the top. It crossed the line. Not just the line, but the line. The thickest line I made and Edward crossed it as if it were nothing.

"Wow, Edward, I was expecting so much more from you. What, this is only a billion dollar mansion that Elvis used to live in right? I was looking for some more suave." I said, adding as much sarcasm into that one line as possible. Edward frowned in return.

"I know you are being sarcastic Bella." He replied. I nodded and raised my eyebrows.

"I don't need this." I said pointing at the huge hotel.

"You don't need it, neither do I..." Edward agreed. I was about to speak but Edward raised his hand, silencing me.

"But I want it, and I want you there with me!" He argued. I rolled my eyes.

"Damn it. Come on, Cullen." I said as I reached to open the truck door. Edward jumped out of the truck and ran to the other side, opening the door the rest of the way for me.

"Really, Edward?" I asked though I smiled at his manners. Always a gentleman.

"Yes really," He said as he took my hand and helped me out of his truck. He grabbed a few suitcases- not bringing all of my stuff inside the hotel- and we went to the front door. There was even a doorman there to open the door for us.

"No leaving in the middle of the night to run back to the truck either." Edward whispered into my ear as we stepped inside. The lobby alone, was bigger than my hometown.

Okay, so I was exaggerating.

Just a bit.

A very little bit.

"Please tell me this is the wrong place." I begged. Edward chuckled and shook his head as he walked to the front desk.

"Name?" The man behind the counter asked. As he spoke his mustache even wiggled and I fought back a giggle. The man looked over to me and narrowed his eyes for a second as he scrutinized me. I felt instantly uncomfortable.

I felt noticeable. I hated it, it were as if I dressed up as a 10 story building. I wanted to be a crack on an sidewalk.

The man smiled and he had many dimples, I actually laughed. Just a bit though.

"Cullen." Edward answered in a polite voice. The man's face turned friendly as he reached over and shook Edward's hand.

"Oh Edward, nice to see you. How's Carlisle doing?" The man asked. He knew Carlisle?

"He's fine, busy though. It seems as a doctor there is always someone needing help." Edward answered casually. "How are you Jace?"

His name was Jace. Very suave, I noted. Greek name? Perhaps.

Jace, looked over to me again. Than he looked at Edward, then me.

"Oh," Edward said as if he caught on to something. "This is my beautiful girlfriend, Bella."

I blushed. I really blushed, Elmo would be jealous at how deep my blush was.

Edward Cullen called me beautiful. Not just that he called me his beautiful girlfriend.

Fist pump anyone?

"Well hello Bella, nice to see Edward having such a beautiful companion." Jace smiled at me and reached over his desk to shake my hand. I complied and shook his in return.

"Anyways," Jace started. "You wanted the master suite with an open bathroom? Television, stereo, bath tub, shower,"

I got lost after shower. That's all that was included? That's what Edward had got for us. I felt faint suddenly. I leaned against Edward for support. At this point since I happened to be a 10 story building, I actually happened to be the Leaning Tower Of Pisa instead. Edward set the suitcases out of his hand on the ground so he could wrap his arms around my midsection.

I actually needed the support.

"That is all included. Only for one night, correct?" Jace asked.

"Yes sir." Edward replied with a smile. I looked at the floor and took deep breaths. I hated people doing things for me. Especially over the top things.

"Here you go, you have until three in the afternoon tomorrow. Have a nice night and the press pound on the room phone if you need any service." Jace explained, handing Edward the keys to our room. Even the keys looked expensive.

"Come on, sweetheart." Edward whispered urgently into my ear as he bent down to pick up our suitcases.

"What no bell boy?" I asked quietly, with sarcasm. Of course.

"I thought you didn't want something way far over the top." Edward chuckled. I rolled my eyes.

"Because a bell boy would make much of a difference at this point, Edward." I hissed. Edward leaned over to kiss my forehead.

"Come on, have fun. This is our night. Our last night together for this trip. Relax and enjoy your self." He whispered to me.

We walked to the elevator that might as well be made out of solid gold.

Did I mention that when we were walking over to the elevator we passed the Koi Pond? Yes a Koi Pond, in a hotel lobby.

"Since when does Canada have castles?" I asked stupidly as we got into the elevator. Edward pressed buttons I didn't pay attention to which one- lets just say there were a lot.

"This is a hotel, love." Edward reminded me.

"You only see this in movies though." I whispered. Edward chuckled.

"I guess we're in a movie then," Edward smiled as the elevator went up. At first I felt uneasy, elevators aren't my thing.

"Is this too much." He asked as the elevator doors opened.

"Do I have a choice?" I questioned in return.

"Not really." Edward laughed. "But I still want to know."

"Edward, I'm not used to people treating me like this. Of course its to much. You put effort and time and lots of MONEY into this, so I might as well enjoy it." I said grumpily.

"Awesome." Edward smiled, stepping out of the elevator with me beside him.

We walked down the hallway and near the end we reached our room. Edward lifted the key and as if it were in slow motion, unlocked our door.

My jaw did not only hit the floor as we stepped into the room- it crashed through the floor and landed on the other side of the world.

Am I exaggerating? Perhaps, but not by much.

"You like?" Edward asked as he stepped inside the room to set our suitcases down on the far side of the bedroom. I nodded, speechless.

All I could see was dollar signs. Edward as if reading my mind, snapped me out of my daze.

"Angel, it wasn't that bad. Not overly expensive, I know these people too. I've been here many times. You know stay two nights get one free? Carlisle came here for a couple trips for meetings this night is free. The add-ons not so free. I didn't want to be overly cheap." Edward explained wrapped his arms around my waist and hugged me to him.

"Why though?" I asked dumbly.

"Why what?" Edward asked, pressing his face into his hair.

"Why did you bring me here?" I questioned, making sure to emphasize the word 'here'.

"Bella, all these past days, I've brought you to cheap places. You not even arguing! I wanted to actually bring you somewhere nice for once." He assured.

"We're going to have fun here." Edward insisted. I rolled my eyes at his enthusiasm.

I unwrapped myself from Edward's embrace and walked over to my suitcase, grabbing my toothbrush to put into the bathroom. Edward stood where I left him and just watched me.

"So what do you want to do? Its only seven." I asked him.

"Well there's a park across the street, it has lots of lights for the night and a trail to walk on. We could do that?" Edward offered. I nodded.


The park was beautiful. The lights were hanging from trees and there were quite a few couples walking and holding hands. Edward and I were one of those couples.

We seemed to fit in quite well.

"Its beautiful here." I smiled as I took in the sky and all the pretty lights. The sun was setting and it was on the verge of being nightfall. It looked beautiful. The sky was filled with many colours as the sun set. There were pinks and yellows even a little red casting through.

"It is. Its nothing though, compared to you." Edward smiled as we walked.

"Such a sweet talker." I mused. I leaned onto Edward, still keeping our fingers interlocked.

"How could someone not notice your beauty though, love?" He asked. I stopped walking and he stopped as well he looked down at me with a confused look. I reached up on the tip of my toes and kissed him firmly on his mouth. He responded by wrapping his arms around my waist and pulling me closer. I interlocked my arms around his neck and deepened the kiss.

He moved his tongue along my lips asking for admittance which I parted my lips in response. We explored each other's mouths for several minutes. I seemed to forget we were in a public area. A public park to be exact.

I pulled back and blushed for the umpteenth time today. Edward rested his forehead against mine, breathing heavily. I too was breathing quite heavily.

"Edward," I whispered, having nothing else to say at that moment.

"Bella." He whispered. He kept his arms around me and my arms were still wrapped around his neck- our foreheads still resting against each other.

"Bella," Edward rasped again. Our eyes were closed, well mine were- not to sure about his...

"Hmm?" I asked peeking through my lashes to see that he had his eyes closed tightly. His hot breath cascaded across my face.

"I love you, Bella." He said in a husky voice. I opened my eyes in shock and saw he still had his closed. He tensed when I didn't reply instantly, his fingers gripping my waist tighter.

"I love you, Edward. So much." I murmured and pressed my lips to his once again.

"Lets go back to our room." He rasped his voice still husky from our everlasting kiss. I nodded and we broke apart, I peeked around seeing a couple of people staring. I wouldn't see them again, I didn't give a damn. Matter of fact I smiled and grabbed Edward's hand as we walked back to the hotel.

Where did that confidence come from, Bella? I thought.

I do not know. Nor do I care.

When we approached the hotel Edward held the door open for me as I went inside, once again amazed by the beauty of the place. Edward followed behind as we went into the elevator, up the elevator and down the hall until we finally reached our room. He grabbed the key out of his pocket and unlocked the door to our own personal mansion.

I mean our hotel room.

...

Sure.

The walls were an orange-y gold and the windows had long drapes. The window behind them was huge and had an amazing view. There was a television on the wall that was huge as well- huge seemed to be the theme of this room. Underneath the television there was a fireplace that was a gas fireplace, I really doubt at a hotel there would be a log burning fireplace... Making the guests go collect wood for their fireplace? Doubt it!

Anyways, the bed was bigger than a king sized bed, I was sure of it and it too had a gold comforter with a strange design on it- though it made the room look good- there were night stands on either side of the bed and lamps on each of the night stands. On the right night stand there was a telephone as well. On the far side of the room there was a small kitchen along with a nice table with a set of chairs.

Attached to the bedroom there was a bathroom that was also huge. It had stone walls and an elegant bath tub along with a glass shower. The vanity was marble and very nice. Everything complimented each other.

To sum it up... It was nice. Suave, comfortable and humongous.

I hate to admit that I liked it. That I loved it.

I used the bathroom and got into my pajamas, had a quick shower and brushed my teeth before walking into the bedroom. Edward already showered and was sitting on the bed using my laptop, since he didn't bring his.

Did I mention the hotel also gave wireless internet connection? No? Well, it did. What didn't it have?

I walked into the humongous bedroom and saw Edward on the bed, just where I left him. I smiled at him, though his attention was otherwise on the computer. I ran over to the bed and jumped on it as if I was a little girl again.

"Whoa, hi!" Edward said startled. I crawled over to him and sat right beside him.

"Scared ya, didn't I?" I asked, already knowing the answer.

"No not really..." He tried lying. I rolled my eyes.

"You can't lie." I told him seriously.

"Aw man, that's all I had going for me!" Edward sighed sarcastically. He wrapped his arm around me and pulled me close to his bare chest. I traced my fingers through the bit of hair on it, trailing it down his stomach. He growled. I smiled.

Suddenly he closed the computer, pushed it aside and rolled on top of me. Careful not put any weight on me though. He kissed from my collar bone up to my forehead.

"I do love you." He whispered, kissing my neck.

"I love you." I told him, truthfully. "So much."

"I want you," He whispered against my neck, not looking up at me. I ran my fingers up his back, and breathed in his scent.

I wanted him too. So much.

"I'm yours." I replied, giving myself up. He looked up at me with wide eyes.

"Are you sure?" He asked gently, giving me a way out.

"Yes," I whispered and ran my hand through his ruffled hair. I kissed him on the lips.

"Yes," I repeated. He smirked and kissed me again, tugging at my shirt. I smiled and we continued blissfully into our little bubble.

I guess you know how we spent our last night of this road trip.


A/N- There you go!

I'm writing Edward's version as well, so that will be up soon after this story is done.

I'll give a link on the last chapter, or make a chapter of A/N giving the link.
