SEDKDA Chapter 11 – Edward's Return
I turned the corner of the walkway and was stopped by a pair of striking green eyes staring at me. He was leaning beside my door waiting for me.
"Edward?" I asked stupidly.
"Bella," he said in a relieved tone.
"What…what are you doing here?"
"I came to talk to you. When I got back to the house that day you were gone and I was finally able to find you. I want to explain," Edward said.
"Explain what? How you fucked me then left me all alone in your house with no way to my car? How you paid the repair bill and made me feel like that was payment for services rendered? What in the hell were you thinking? You didn't call or leave a note or anything so what am I supposed to think?" I screamed at him. He looked like a deer caught in headlights.
"It wasn't like that! How can you even say that kind of shit?" Edward screamed back, his arms flailing in the air as he began to pace.
"It's pretty damn easy to think that way after everything. By the way…where are my panties? Do you have some sick fetish where you keep the panties of all your conquests?"
"What in the fuck are you talking about?" Edward asked, glaring at me.
"You know damn well what I am talking about! Now go! I don't want to see you! You need to leave NOW!" I screamed as I unlocked my door and slammed it in his face.
I heard him call my name a few times through the door but I stayed silent. After a few minutes I didn't hear anything. I looked through the peep hole and he was gone. Well, this was a horrible ending to a wonderful evening. I decided to just take a quick shower and go to bed. What I didn't expect was the visions of Edward that danced through my head all night long.
I woke up the next day to someone knocking on my door. I clumsily made my way to it, half asleep, and on the way the coffee table jumped out and attacked my pinkie toe. When I finally got to the front door and opened it I was cursing and surprised the delivery guy who was standing there with a bouquet of pink tulips. I snatched the card and saw that they were from Edward. I smiled politely at the guy and told him to send them back. I shut the door and went about my day.
I spent the rest of the day organizing my research and typing it up into chapters. I hadn't done this for a while so I had the unfortunate task of reliving Edward's chapter. I almost skipped over it but decided to get it out of the way and put him behind me. I cringed when I wrote up the chapter about James but turned it into a positive chapter about the dangers of casual sex with people that you don't know. I felt really good about it when I was done.
Finally, I finished up the last chapter to date, Jacob's second chapter, over my beef fried rice that I had delivered. Feeling satisfied with my accomplishments for the day I headed to bed and was assaulted with dreams of Edward and I having sex in a meadow of pink tulips.
Bright and early at 9:00 am the next morning I was woken up by knocking on my door. I made my way there and opened it to find the same delivery man from yesterday. This time he was holding a bouquet of white daisies.
"Looks like he won't take no for an answer," the delivery man said with a smile.
"Looks like you have another return delivery," I said with a sickly sweet smile before I slammed the door in his face.
I didn't have any more work to do today on my chapters but remembered that my new bedroom set was being delivered. I quickly stripped my bed of linens and cleaned out my dresser drawers to get them ready. I hoped that they delivery guys wouldn't mind helping me move the old stuff into the spare bedroom.
At 11:00am there was a knock at the door. Three guys stood there who resembled Jacob in a way. They all had short dark hair and russet skin. They introduced themselves as Sam, Embry, and Quil.
"Are you guys related to Jacob?" I asked, unable to help myself.
"Not really. We are all from the same reservation down along the coast, we are all Quileute," Sam explained. "So, where is the furniture going?"
"In the master bedroom. There is just a little glitch; I can't move the old stuff out and into the spare bedroom by myself. You guys wouldn't be able to help me would you?" I asked coyly while batting my eyelashes.
"Not a problem!" Quil offered enthusiastically. "Lead the way!"
I showed them the way to the bedroom and where the spare bedroom was and the three of them made quick work of moving everything out and into the other room. I wanted to feel bad about asking them to do the extra work for me but watching them in their relaxed fit jeans and plain white t-shirts was just delicious.
I was snapped out of my daydream when they started bringing in my new bedroom set. The bed was first.
"Where would you like it in the room?" Sam asked. I motioned to the area and they set it up quickly. They brought in the dresser and the chest of drawers and set them in place too. Finally the night stand, mirror, lounge, and the mattresses were brought in and set in their respective places. I thanked them for everything and Embry finally spoke.
"Well, Jacob did tell us to do whatever you asked of us," he said with a sheepish smile. I was going to have to yell at, and then thank Jacob later.
"Well, thanks so much," I said as I walked them to the front door and closed it behind them.
I ran to my room and jumped on my bed, bouncing around like a little kid. I got up and put all of my clothes away and then pulled out the new bedding set I bought for the bed. It was done in shades of red, orange, beige, and gold and had a Middle Eastern feel to the design. I put it on the bed along with the 14 pillows it contained and then had to lay in the bed and revel in the feel of luxury. I decided to stay in bed all day and read books. I finally turned the light off around 3:00 am and settled in for a wonderful night of sleep. Too bad I didn't know that my dreams would be filled with Edward again.
9:00 am there was a knock at my door. I had a feeling I knew who it was. I got up and headed to answer it and the same delivery guy was there.
"He sent more," the guy said as he attempted to hand me a bouquet of blue irises.
"He can take them back," I said as I turned to shut the door. The delivery guy cleared his throat and I stopped for a second.
"Ma'am, I am just trying to do my job. I understand that you don't want them but I have to attempt the delivery, I will see you tomorrow probably," the delivery man said then turned and headed down the walk.
I closed the door and decided to call Alice for a day out. We took in a matinee and had lunch downtown. Then I actually let her take me shopping for a while before I got the chance to run away back home. I headed to bed early so that I could be up and waiting tomorrow morning to see if the delivery guy would be back with more flowers from Edward "Dipshit" Masen.
As predicted, the morning brought a 9:00 am knock from the same delivery guy. This time he had red carnations. I politely refused them and did the same thing the next day with the white lilies and the day after that with the red roses and the day after that with the red dendrobium orchids. I thought he might get the hint after 7 returned flower deliveries but no!
The next week brought gifts. They started out as a teddy bear. Then there was a stuffed lamb and then a stuffed lion. The next gift I had to fight Alice for. She had started coming over every morning to see what the delivery man, I found out Peter was his name, would be bringing from Edward for the day. She screamed when she saw the new Prada purse. She begged me for it and Peter even started to give it to her but I stopped him. Edward would have thought that I had decided to keep it if I let Alice have it.
I almost peed myself the following day when a pair of sapphire earrings arrived. It pained me to send them back but since they were from Edward, I didn't want them. The day after that was a sapphire bracelet and the following day was a sapphire necklace. Alice thought I was absolutely insane for sending those back and actually got a little pissed at me. However, she was at my door the next morning to see what the gift of the day would be. I didn't know how much longer this was going to last but I hoped it would be over soon. I felt sorry for Peter having to make the trip out every day of the week.
Day 15 brought the letter. I never heard the 9:00 am knock and waited until 9:15 am before I opened the door to see if Peter had come by. Leaning against my door was a manila envelope with my name beautifully written on it. I had come to recognize Edward's handwriting from all the cards on the flowers and gifts.
I picked up the envelope and went inside then sat down on the couch. I opened the envelope and Alice came to sit beside me and see what it held. I pulled out a single sheet of paper and read through the beautiful script on it.
Bella,
I don't know what else to do for you to understand that I am sorry. I never meant for you to feel like that. I wanted to explain myself and my actions to you but was not presented with the opportunity. I want to make it up to you. I don't want this to be goodbye but if that is your wish then this is the last you will ever hear from me. This is my final plea for me to be able to explain what happened that day. I assure you that I won't contact you any more after this letter. No more flowers. No more stuffed animals. No more gifts. It will be as if I never existed. I hope to hear from you but if I don't then I understand. Just know that I wish there could have been more between us.
Goodbye,
Edward Masen
When I finished reading I had tears streaming down my face and had no clue as to why. I looked back in the envelope to see if there was anything else inside and I found Edward's business card with his number on it.
"Bella?" Alice asked softly. "Are you going to call him? I think he has earned his chance to explain." All I could do was nod. She hugged me and said she would leave me to call him on my own. The moment I heard the door shut I picked up my cell phone and dialed his number with shaky fingers.
Edward answered on the second ring and I kept it very short. I asked him to dinner the next night and he accepted. When I hung up with him I called Alice. I needed her help to look good for Edward. He deserved at least that. Plus, I would need a menu for tomorrow evening. I was going to cook for him. I sure hoped his explanation was a good one.
Alice was back 5 minutes later and we ransacked my closet. I chose the black bra and panty set that had the slits and ties in all the right places while Alice picked out a simple little black dress with an empire waist and bead embellishments on the hem. I decided that I would go without shoes for the dinner since it was in my home but Alice insisted that when I answered the door I had to be in a pair of my black heels. I conceded to her demands and we headed out to the grocery store.
I chose the makings for Chicken Parmesan and picked up a bottle of Pinot Noir. For dessert I went with some chocolate caramel truffles from River Street Sweets and some fresh strawberries. Alice stayed the night since she had begged to do my hair and makeup and nails for my "date" with Edward. I went to sleep that night with butterflies in my stomach at the prospect of seeing Edward and hearing his explanation. I hoped it was worthwhile.
The next morning came quickly and Alice ushered me into the shower while she prepared us breakfast. All she did was pour us each a bowl of Cocoa Krispies and add milk and spoons. Alice was such a horrible cook. I was glad she hadn't attempted to burn down my apartment with one of her kitchen experiments. I ate quickly then was herded into the bathroom to be blow dried, curled, plucked, and tweezed for almost 2 hours. Alice thought my hair would look best if I wore it down in loose sexy curls. It did look amazing.
I checked the clock and saw that it was 2:00 pm. Edward would be at my place at 6 and I had to cook and clean and have a panic attack or two before he arrived. Alice applied my makeup and gave me a smoky eye, thick lashes, and a glossy lip. Finally she left at 4 and I was able to start preparations for dinner. I timed it to be ready at 6:30 pm so that Edward wouldn't be shoved to the table when he first got there.
I checked the clock and saw that it was 5:57 pm and started pacing. I was worried that I would break a panic sweat and smell so I ran to my room and added a final spritz of perfume and grabbed my heels. I had just slipped into them when there was a knock at the door. I made my way there slowly so that I didn't appear eager.
When I opened the door my breath was taken away by the perfection that stood before me. He was in charcoal grey slacks, a black button up shirt, black shoes and belt, and he was holding a bouquet of white lilies.
"Hi, come on in," I managed.
"Thank you, these are for you, I thought I would see if you would accept them this time," Edward said with a half smile. I blushed automatically and took the flowers, inhaling their wonderful aroma. I walked into the kitchen to find a vase and Edward followed me.
"You have a great place," Edward commented, taking in his surroundings.
"Thanks, yours is better though," I admitted and he laughed lightly.
We made small talk as I put the lilies in a vase and set them on the counter. I finished up dinner and Edward helped by grabbing the dishes and setting the table. Our conversation flowed easily for the time being and I knew it would probably get difficult when we got down to business.
I poured two glasses of wine and we sat at the table, facing each other, and started to eat. I asked Edward about his job and he told me that he was a photographer for print ads. When he asked what I did I just said that I was a writer and was working on a book but I refused to say what it was about. After dinner I got the truffles and strawberries and refreshed our wine. I unconsciously moaned when I bit into one of the truffles and I blushed with embarrassment. Edward smiled at me with a sexy glint in his eyes.
After we were finished with dessert I cleaned off the table and we headed into the living room to talk some more. I could tell that there was some tension now that it was time to explain everything that had happened.
"So," I started as I sat down on the couch. Edward took a seat beside me on the other end of the couch and turned to face me. "You said you wanted to explain that day, now's your chance."
Edward took a big drink of his wine and then a deep breath before he began. "Well, first off, that night was amazing. I have never had that kind of physical connection with someone before. I just have to tell you that. As for the next morning, I left to buy us breakfast and go by and pay the repair bill. I don't know why I wanted to but I did, it just seemed right. I didn't expect you to wake up while I was gone but I did leave a note, I promise I did. It was on the nightstand."
"So, that is your explanation? What about my panties?" I asked. I didn't know whether or not to believe him but he did seem genuine.
"You mean these?" he asked as he pulled a pair of plain white panties from his pocket. "I found them under the bed along with the note I wrote you. I brought it too." He handed me the panties and a folded slip of paper. I opened it up and read.
Bella,
I have gone to get breakfast and will be back shortly. Please make yourself at home and I will be back soon.
Edward
So, he was telling the truth it seemed.
"Ok, I have one more question."
"What is that?"
"How did you find me? I never gave you my address or phone number. Did you hire some private investigator?" I asked with a laugh but I noticed him cringe. "You didn't, did you?"
"No," he said slowly. "I actually bribed the repair shop guy to pull up your paperwork and get me your address. Then I had to work up the nerve to come see you. I didn't want you to think I was some crazy stalker," he admitted.
"Oh, ok," was all I could say. We sat in silence for a few minutes before Edward stood up.
"Well, I guess I should be heading out, thanks for dinner."
"You're welcome. Thanks for explaining. I am sorry for my reaction the other week," I said as I followed him to the front door.
Edward turned to look at me and put his arms out for a hug which I gladly gave him. When I went to pull back he cupped my face in one hand and kept the other on the small of my back.
"May I kiss you?" Edward whispered softly.
"Yes," I breathed out right before his lips brushed lightly against mine.
I let out a sigh as he pulled back. Edward smirked at me before leaning in and kissing me harder. I let my hands take a natural course up his body and around his neck, my fingers carding themselves in his bronze locks. Edward's lips pressed into mine fervently as he moved us back. I heard him kick the door shut as we made our way, lips locked, back into the depths of the apartment.
"Bedroom," I mumbled through his lips and pulled him in the direction of it. I released my grip on him long enough to turn on the bedroom light as we entered.
The moment we were in my room my fingers sought out the buttons on his shirt, pulling it open and dropping it to the floor. I moved to his belt and quickly pulled it open and unbuttoned his slacks. He let them drop to the floor and stepped out of them and his shoes at the same time.
While I was undressing him his hands had made their way down over my hips and his fingers dipped under the hem of my dress, pulling it slowly up my thighs. He let his fingers graze over my hips and up my sides as he lifted the dress higher and higher up my body. He broke our kiss to remove my dress and then recaptured my lips with his as he tossed the dress to the side with his clothes.
"Oh god," I moaned as Edward moved his lips down my jaw to my neck. "Stay, stay tonight," I breathed out as he kissed and licked his way along my collar bone and his hands grabbed my ass firmly. I wanted nothing more than to wake up next to Edward in the morning.
"Only if you will be here when I wake up," Edward murmured as he kissed his way up my neck to my ear.
"Definitely," I moaned out as his teeth grazed my earlobe.
Edward sucked my earlobe into his warm, wet mouth and nibbled on it gently. He released my earlobe and kissed his way back to my mouth, recapturing my lips with his. This kiss was different from before, it was gentler and more reserved, like he wanted to take his time when I wanted anything else but slow, reserved, and gentle.
He nudged me backwards until the back of my legs touched the bed. Then he wrapped his arms around my body and very carefully laid me back on the bed before letting his lips resume their worshipping of my body. He started at my lips and kissed his way down my body before returning the trail up the other side. All of my nerves were on edge as he moved his lips to my bra. He glanced down and reached for the small bows that held the center of the cups together.
Very slowly, he pulled one bow then the other, causing the cups to split and reveal my pert nipples. They ached for his lips. As if he heard them calling his name, he descended his mouth down on one, licking around it painfully slow before covering it with his full, moist lips. I moaned and arched my back towards him, silently begging him with my body for more. He smiled into my breast before pulling away and blowing lightly on it, causing it to harden even more. Edward moved to the other nipple and treated it with the same passion filled ministrations.
When I thought I would explode from his kisses on my breasts he moved his mouth in a trail down my abdomen to my core. He looked up at me before gripping the bow on my panties with his teeth and pulling it open. He smiled as they opened up for him, exposing my moist center. I thought I was going to die from the delay when he licked me once, twice, three times up my slit, drinking in my nectar.
He reached for the hips of my panties, his fingers dipping under the waistband, and then pulled them down my legs. Edward removed his boxers and let them fall to the floor before crawling up the bed towards me. He cradled me in his arms then unclasped my bra and slid it off of my arms. When he settled me back on the bed my breathing was erratic and I wanted nothing more than to have him take me and take me hard.
Edward seemed to have different plans as he gently spread my legs and settled himself in between them. I felt his tip position itself at my entrance and held my breath, waiting for the ultimate pleasure of him entering me. I didn't have to wait long. Edward descended his lips to mine at the same time that he slowly entered me. I groaned into his mouth as he moaned into mine, our bodies becoming one with each other as he pulled back slowly before pushing in again. I could feel his body trembling with desire as he struggled with the slow pace he had set.
"Edward," I breathed out as he moved his mouth to my neck.
"Yes love?" Edward asked. Love, he called me Love. I could get used to that.
"I need you."
"I do to but I don't think I can take this slow even though I want to." Edward was still slowly moving in and out of me, his whole body racked with tremors.
"Then don't," I said as I wrapped my legs around his body and pulled with all my might, slamming his hips into mine. He moaned with the friction and let out a small growl.
He pulled back some and I used my legs to slam him into me again, earning another growl from low in his chest.
"God Bella, I want you so badly," Edward said through clenched teeth as I helped him crash into me again.
"Then take me!" I screamed out as he used his own force to slam into me, harder than before.
Quicker than I thought possible, he moved away from me and leaned off the bed, reaching for his pants. He slipped his belt out of his pants and was back on top of me in a split second. He grabbed my wrists and wrapped his belt around them, securing them together before pinning them to the bed above my head with one of his hands. He used his other hand to shove my knees apart then positioned himself at my entrance. He shoved his member forcefully into me as I cried out from the pleasure.
"OH GOD EDWARD!" I called out as he set a quick, heated pace.
"How hard do you want it Bella? Tell me, how hard?" Edward growled as he slammed into me over and over again.
"Harder Edward, HARDER!" I yelled through clenched teeth as my pending orgasm exploded forth with vigor.
He kept thrusting into me as I rode out the waves of the orgasm then pulled back from me and smirked. He stood up on the bed and reached for my bound hands, pulling me up to him. I stumbled slightly on the soft mattress then gasped as he lifted my arms up and slung the belt over the scrolled metal in the center of my bed.
"Don't fall," he said with a smile as he sank to his knees in front of me.
He helped me set my feet apart on the bed and settled himself between them. He smiled up at me devilishly before attaching his mouth to my slit, drinking me in. My head fell back from the pleasure and I moaned his name over and over again as he licked my core and assaulted my bud with his tongue and teeth. I felt an orgasm building up in the depths of my loins and he seemed to notice too because he moved his mouth to my bud, sucking it in between his teeth.
His hands, which had been resting on my hips, moved between my legs and he dipped two fingers in a few times, moistening them. He pulled them out and I cried out at the loss of contact but moaned when he moved them to my rear, teasing my puckered entrance.
He slowly slid his moistened fingers into my back entrance at the same time he slipped two fingers into my slit, all while sucking and nibbling on my bud.
He set a quick pace with his hands and the building orgasm took on a new heat as it rolled through my body like a tornado, destroying everything in its path as he milked it from me.
When I thought I could take no more, he removed his fingers and cleaned my juices up with his tongue. He started to stand up, drawing a path up my abdomen with his tongue. When he was standing he kissed me greedily before shifting to stand behind me. My legs were shaking uncontrollably and he grasped my hips, as if to steady me.
"You ready for me?" Edward asked in my ear in a low and sultry voice.
"Yes," I said breathlessly.
"Good, because I am not done with you yet," he moaned as he pulled my hips back against his stomach and thrust deep into me.
"UUgghhhh!" I moaned out as I angled my hips to get more friction.
Edward had my hips in a strong grasp as he drove into me over and over again. My hands were suspended over my head and my head was dropped back on his shoulder as he thrust harder and faster with each movement of his hips. I couldn't do much of anything other than enjoy the rough ride that Edward had put me on and I was doing just that. Edward's grip tightened on my hips and I cried out as he found a quick pace and kept it. I wasn't going to last much longer as another orgasm quickly built deep within me.
The moment my walls started to clench down on Edward's dick he picked up the pace just a notch and my release was sudden and overwhelming. My walls clenched down on his dick and my legs trembled beneath me like a hurricane and with three more quick thrusts Edward released himself deep inside of me.
Suddenly, without warning, my legs gave out and Edward had to catch me.
"Whoa there," he said with a chuckle as he held me up and released my hands from the bars and his belt before sinking onto the bed with me in his lap. He started to rub my wrists and the angry red marks that were wrapped around them.
"That was just, OH MY GOD!" I panted while trying to catch my breath. "Now, I think I need a shower, care to join me?"
"I would love to," Edward said with a smirk before he leaned down and kissed me softly.
I rolled out of his lap ungracefully and attempted to stand up but my legs were being traitors. Edward was there to catch me before I hit the floor and he helped me to the bathroom, sitting me down on the bathroom counter while he started the shower.
Once it was nice and steamy he picked me back up and stepped into the shower, closing the doors behind us. He set me gently on my feet but kept his arms wrapped securely around my waist. I was grateful of this because my legs were still being considered for treason. I let the hot water cascade over my body and started to shift lightly under it, not realizing that every slight movement of my body caused my ass to graze against his member. I realized it when I felt it start to come to life again and press against me.
"You keep that up and you better hope the hot water lasts," Edward growled seductively in my ear.
"Don't worry, I have plenty of hot water," I purred as I purposely shifted my ass against him more forcefully. That earned a growl from him and he spun me around and picked me up, wrapping my legs around his waist as he leaned up against the shower wall. I reached up and grabbed onto the top of the tiles with one hand and the top of the shower door with the other for leverage as Edward picked me up slightly and slid into me in one quick plunge.
"OH GOD! So tight! So warm!" Edward muttered as he wrapped his arms around me and started thrusting upwards into my dripping core.
He was thrusting quickly and I could tell that neither of us would last long this time. I started to bounce against his thrusts to deepen the penetration and removed my hand from the tile. I slowly moved my free hand down my body and positioned it between us as I started to rub my clit in time with the pumping of Edward's hips.
"UNGH!" Edward moaned out when he looked down and saw me playing with myself. "OH GOD! Keep that up baby, that looks so fucking hot!"
I picked up the speed of my hand to match the new pace set by his hips and started to moan and whimper and cry out as my release attempted to break through. I held my breath and concentrated on the sensations and was temporarily blinded and deafened by the force of the freight train I unleashed. I felt the surge of wetness as I gushed forward all over Edward. He growled low and deep when my walls clenched erratically down on him and was soon coming with me.
We both rode out the waves of our combined orgasms and stayed connected until our breathing was back to normal. He picked me up with shaking arms and set me quickly but gently on my feet under the stream of water. I could feel it starting to lose its heat so we both showered quickly, washing each other off of each other.
When we were done I reached down and turned off the water while Edward got out and grabbed towels for us. When I stepped out he was already wrapped in one and held the other one open for me. I graciously accepted it and went to take it from him but he wouldn't allow it. Instead, he gently dried me off; peppering me with kisses the whole way around my body.
"You keep that up and we are going to go for round three," I playfully warned and hoped.
"That might be in the cards for tonight, we will have to see how good you can be," Edward played back.
"Mmm," I hummed as he finished drying me off and hung the towel back up.
He removed his towel and dried his hair more thoroughly before hanging it up beside mine then moved us back into the bedroom, his arms wrapped tightly around my body and his lips pressed against mine. I felt the bed against my legs again and then Edward twirled me around and pulled the covers back, never breaking the kiss.
We scooted into bed and he laid behind me, spooning me. We were both there, naked, in each other's arms. I started to shift my ass against his groin again.
"Bella, as much as I would love to bring you to the brink of ecstasy again, I doubt that your fragile body could handle it again," Edward chuckled.
I rolled over to face him and said, "I am no porcelain doll Edward Masen, I can take anything you can dish out."
"Is that a fact?" he smirked at me.
"Consider it a challenge," I shot back before kissing his neck.
"Let me be the judge of that," he said before grabbing me and rolling me back over.
He grabbed my hips and pulled them against him, sliding into me effortlessly and making me gasp at the feeling of being filled completely again. He started to thrust slowly yet forcefully into me and the last thing I remembered was screaming out as another orgasm slammed into me.
The next morning I woke up and reached for Edward but he wasn't there. I sat up, my eyes flying open. I just knew he had run off again. That thought was immediately pushed from my mind when my forehead smacked into something cold and hard. I looked and it was Edward's belt, hanging from the rails over the bed, and there was a note attached to it.
Bella,
I am in the kitchen making breakfast. I didn't leave. Come enjoy.
Edward
I got up and felt the soreness in my body from last night's escapades. I didn't mind it though and quickly dressed in a t-shirt, panties, and my bathrobe before stumbling my way to the kitchen. The smell of scrambled eggs, ham, and coffee hit me and my stomach growled.
"Hi there," Edward said from the kitchen where he was putting the food on two plates. "I hope you don't mind, I wanted to make you breakfast since I didn't get to last time. Again, I am so sorry about that."
"Don't worry about it. In fact, let's forget last time," I said with a smile as I sat down at the table where Edward had just set the food down.
"You really want to forget everything? Because I rather enjoyed most of that day and night," he said with a delicious twinkle in his eye. He poured the coffee for both of us and sat down across the table from me.
"Well, now that you mention it, there might have been a thing or two that I enjoyed…" I said playfully. Edward's mouth dropped open at my joke. "How about this, we just forget the morning after?"
"Deal. So, Bella, what do you have planned for tonight? Because I would love to spend more time with you. I just have a photo shoot this afternoon then I am free."
"Hmmm, well, there is this hot, bronze haired guy that I am kind of partial to and I was planning on seeing him tonight. But, if you had plans for us then I am sure he wouldn't mind me cancelling."
"Smartass!" Edward said playfully. "Two can play at that game…"
