A/N

Hello to all! I have a few things to mention. First of all I'm really sorry for not posting sooner. The place I work at cant keep there employees therefore it causes me to have to work overtime.

I didn't reach up to 80 reviews like I had hoped for, but it was only 3 away from it so that's not to bad. Thank you to the ones who did review my story… yall are the best and please keep them coming. For those of you who don't I would love to hear from you to see what your thoughts are.

Also if you have not placed your vote for what house best fits Edwards then you need to soon because the next chapter will have the winner announced.

One last thing to mention is I think I want to change the name of Chapter 10 from 'The Tour' to 'Fallin for you' or 'Free Fallin' something cheesy like that…. I think it would fit better. What do yall think? Okay so enough notes for now. Here's your chapter… enjoy!

Oh wait sorry one last thing… I don't own Twilight or any of its characters.

Chapter 11

Unsolicited Appearances

Edward continued to hold and kiss me only pulling his lips away when our air supply faded.

"Bella" He whispered my name with what sounded like the last of his air pushing out of his lungs then kissed me on the forehead.

I couldn't help the smile that fell upon my lips and bent down to go in for round two, but before I could Edwards cell phone rang and once again interrupted us.

"Damn it all to hell" he said with his lips only an inch or so from mine. I could feel his warm breath fan across my face and still could taste him on my tongue.

Edward shifted me to where I was now in a sitting position and pulling himself into one as well. He reached into his pocket and grabbed his phone which looked to have been a little damaged due to the fall and looked at the screen.

"Should've known." He said quietly as he hit the green talk button and answered.

"Hello?"

I began to check over my body to see how badly I was hurt. I stretched out my arms and legs. I was a little sore, but nothing that I couldn't handle.

"Emmett I said I would be there. It has only been what like ten minutes since you called me the first time."

I was only hearing bits and pieces of his one sided conversation.

Realizing that I wasn't injured badly I decided it was best to try and clean my appearance up. I started to run my fingers through my tangled hair trying to get debris out of it as I went. I made a pass with my fingers to comb through the hair by my ears, but when my fingers skimmed across my scalp it stung a little and a small gasp escaped my lips. I felt something wet seep through the finger tips of my glove and I pulled my hand away from my hair and seen the sticky red liquid on the fabric.

"Yeah. See you when I get there."

Edward hit the end button and shoved the phone roughly back into his pants pocket. I could tell he was annoyed by the call.

"Are you sure your okay Bella? And don't try to down play it cause I heard you when I was on the phone."

He reached for my gloved hand and seen the blood. He ran his own finger through my hair and gently pulled it out of the way to get a closer look at it. "When we get back to the house I will have Mrs. Cope take care of this for you. Is this the only injury you have?"

"Yes I think so… I don't have pain anywhere else so I'm assuming that's it. What about you? How badly are you hurt?"

"Not too bad like I said nothing a little medicine cant take care of." he stood up and brushed himself off and held his hand out to me.

Once we were both on our feet we climbed up that dreadful hill and thank God the second time we made it with out any compilations and loaded back up on the horse. The trip back to the house didn't take as long as it did to get to the lake, but of course we weren't sight seeing anymore either.

I had my arms wrapped around Edwards torso and eventually rested my chin on his shoulder. It was only when my skin touched his that I noticed the fabric of his jacket and his shirt under the jacket was ripped and that there was a large scrap across the top of his shoulder.

Few Advil my ass. Here he was telling me not to downplay it. I decided it was best not to say anything about it at the moment and just enjoyed the feel of our bodies so close together.

Once we reached the barn James came out to collect the horse and offered to help me down. However even with Edward being hurt he still sent James away… which I was grateful for and helped me down himself.

We walked back to the house and into the dinning room.

"Mrs. Cope?" Edward called for her and a few moments later she came over to us.

"Oh my goodness. What happened? It looks like you two are hurt pretty badly… here" she pulled out two chairs from the dinning table "sit down while I go and get the first aid kit. And get out of those jackets so I can clean them for you and it will help me to have better access treating you two."

I pulled my jacket off with Edwards help. Edward then pulled his off and I noticed him jerk a little bit when it pulled down the open cut on his shoulder. We both sat down, but didn't say anything.

"Here we go." Mrs. Cope said as she entered the room with a red box in her hands. "Who wants to go first?"

Before I had a chance to speak Edward answered. "Take care of Bella first."

"Mrs. Cope I really think you should take care of Edward first. He is in a lot worse shape then me."

"Edward?' Mrs. Cope looked at him questioningly.

"Mrs. Cope I'm fine just please take care of Bella's head first. Hers is a far more serious injury then that of mine."

"Very well." Mrs. Cope pulled out some peroxide and poured some on a Q-tip and started to clean the cut. It instantly started to foam up however it didn't burn. I held my hair out of the way for her.

There wasn't really much she could do other then clean it. It would have been hard to put a Band-Aid over it. So when she was finished with it I just let my hair fall back into place.

"There you go sweetie you are all done." she patted my hand and looked up at Edward.

"Edward you are next. Now where are you injured at?"

"On my shoulder."

"Okay I need you to take your shirt off so I can treat the wound.

I looked up at Edward to see he was in the process of lifting up his shirt. My cheeks turned red and I quickly looked down. When I had the courage to look back up I was met with a crooked smirk on his face.

He knew that I was going to check him out so I took my sweet time looking at him… hey why try and prove him wrong? I would have looked whether he smirked about it or not.

I slide my eye's down to his chiseled chest. It looked like it was made of stone and he had a six pack. There was a trail of hair that led strait down to the top of his pants. Oh how I wished his injury would have been on his leg. That way he would have had to take his pants off. His arms were well defined and you could see the muscle in his arms with out him even having to flex. Which made me wonder what he looked like when he did.

I ogled over him until Mrs. Cope had finished. Which might I add was way too soon for my liking… I wouldn't have mind looking at him for another hour or two.

He cleared his throat and stood up. Mrs. Cope had gathered the two jackets and torn shirt of Edwards in her hands

"I will take care of these." she said.

"Thank you Mrs. Cope" I said and she smiled at me before she walked out of the room.

Edward came over to where I was and took my hand. We walked to the elevator and waited for the doors to open. As soon as they did we walked in with the doors quickly shutting behind us. I looked over at Edward to see he had already pushed the button.

His eyes met with mine and his arm lifted up to pull me closer to him. He slowly leaned his head down, his lips hovering over mine for what seemed like forever until they finally made purchase.

They were warm on mine and his taste… well that was nothing short of amazing.

This kiss was more aggressive then our first one. You could feel all the pent up attraction and need between the both of us come out. His tongue darted out and licked my bottom lip asking for entrance… I opened my mouth and our tongues battled and explored each others mouths. We both let out low husky moans. He lightly pushed me up against the wall of the elevator and his hands started to roam my body. He was just about to make it to the hem on my shirt when all the sudden…

The elevator doors opened and he pulled away all to soon. He grabbed my hand and walked me to my room.

"I have to go and see what Emmett needs, but I will be back soon… okay?"

"Yeah sure. I will be here."

"That's what I'm counting on." he smiled and gave me a light kiss and opened my bedroom door for me.

"See you later."

He shut my door and I heard his footsteps fade.

I slowed my breathing down and tried to clear my head. I so had to call Alice, but first things first… I needed a shower.

EPOV

I left Bella and walked back to my room to take a quick shower and get dressed so I could go meet Emmett.

I went down to the garage and hopped into my Saleen S7 Twin Turbo (pictures on my profile) and made my way to the warehouse where Emmett was waiting for me.

The drive was short, but still long enough for me to think about Bella and whether or not this is a mistake.

Part of me was screaming and calling me names and saying what a fool I was for doing this while the other part of me was rejoicing saying it was about time I had someone in my life again. Someone I could call mine. However Bella wasn't mine….yet!

She still needs to know everything about me…. Which was easier said then done. Part of me didn't trust her just yet. After all she did work for a newspaper. Did I really want to tell her all of my secrets just so she could write a story and get ahead in her career?

Although something inside of me told me Bella was not like that I couldn't help but think it to be true. Maybe I wanted it to be true because if it was then I would never have to open up to her about this because in which case hey I didn't trust her.

I sighed heavily as I turned into the warehouse parking lot and seen Emmett's jeep. I parked next to it and stepped out.

Okay time to take care of some business.

I walked into the warehouse and up the stairs to where Emmett's office was located. When I reached the door I opened it to see Emmett sitting in his swivel black chair with his legs up on the desk crossed at the ankle and he was throwing a ball at the wall which was bouncing back to him.

Leave it to my brother to act like a moron. I cleared my throat to get his attention.

His head snapped up and he looked over at me. "Oh hey man."

"Emmett. Now what's the problem?"

"Oh that, well you were taking to long so I just took care of it myself."

"Emmett?" I spoke as I pinched the bridge of my nose. "if you could take care of it because I took to long then why couldn't you just take care of it to begin with?"

I was royally pissed. He took time away from me that could have been spent with Bella.

"Oh I don't know man. I guess I didn't think about it at the time."

"Emmett it scares me to think that I put you in charge of running one of the biggest companies I own."

"Hey man don't start that…. I'm good at what I do."

"Whatever man I'm out of here."

"Hey wait Eddie I need to follow you back to your house so I can borrow some of your tools."

"What? Why? And don't call me Eddie….you know I hate that!"

"Because Rose is going to fix my jeep up for me man."

I didn't really want anyone to meet Bella seeing as how I didn't know where this was going to go yet.

"Emmett can it wait till later?"

"Aw come on Ed it will only take me a few minutes."

He looked at me as if he was about to cry. Damn he should have been an actor.

"Fine."

We both walked out of the office and Emmett locked the warehouse behind him. We got back in our cars and headed to my house with Emmett following behind.

BPOV

After I had my shower, which was easier said then done considering how the shampoo burned my cut, I got dressed and dried and straitened my hair. I tried to call Alice, but there was no answer.

Edward had been gone for a while now and I was starting to get bored and hungry. I wondered if the rules still applied now that we went somewhat past the interview/interviewee relationship.

Well there was only one way to find out. I walked over to my door and turned the door knob. I peeked out into the hallway, so far so good. I made my way over to the elevator and pushed the button. When the doors dragged open I ran inside looking over my shoulder and pushed the ground floor button. The doors shut and the elevator started to move. I leaned my head against the back wall trying to calm myself down.

The lift stopped moving and the door opened. I walked out into the open hallway.

Hell yeah I did it. No one caught me. Or maybe they just didn't care anymore. Maybe Edward had talked to them about it. I was just about to turn the corner and go to the dinning area when I heard someone call to me.

"Hey?"

Shit! I was busted!

I took a deep breath and turned around to see this supermodel looking women who had long golden blonde wavy hair that sank down to the end of her shoulder blades. Her face was stunning. She had long eyelashes and perfectly straight white teeth. Her eyes were big and her nose was just the right size for her face. Her lips were plump and covered in a red lipstick.

"Hey?" She said again in an almost annoyed voice.

I looked around thinking she might have been talking to someone behind me, but I didn't see anyone else.

Confused with the situation, I put my finger up to my chest and pointed at myself.

"Yes you! Are you just going to stand there looking like the fool you are, or are you going to do what Edward pays you to do and come to get my bags?"

She then pointed to the floor where there were 4 read and black zebra suitcases sitting in front of her.

"Rose don't be cruel this might be her first day or something." Another gorgeous women said as she came up behind her. She had caramel colored hair and was older, but she had aged beautifully. Her smile was warm and gentle and her eyes held love in them.

"Really Rose there are other ways to handle things without being overly assertive."

This time it was a guy who had blond colored hair. His facial features were strong, but yet kind at the same time. He came up and put his arm around the waist of the lady with the caramel colored hair.

"besides we want to surprise Edward with us being here not make him upset with us because we are mistreating members of his staff." He said towards the one they called Rose.

"Well it probably will be all for nothing because you asked Emmett to do all the work and everyone knows just how good he is at not blowing secrets."

"Well either way he should have at least gotten Edward out of the house. At least I hope anyways."

"We can always ask his employee Esme." Said the man. He then turned to me. "Do you know if Mr. Cullen left?"

I answered back… I was now starting to piece together and understand better about what was going on.

"Yes he has been gone for some time now."

"Good well can you please take are bags up to our rooms?" Rose asked again only this time she didn't have the bitterness in her tone. I was thinking it was because of Esme. And if this was Esme then the man with his arm around her had to be Carlisle.

"Um I would, but I don't work here." I said and all three of there face snapped up at me.

"You don't work here. Then what are you doing here? Oh my gosh Edward has been seeing someone." The blonde looked at Esme who's face lit up brighter then a night on the forth of July.

"Well that sly fox. No wonder he didn't want to come to Thanksgiving with the family this year. I thought it was because he was just going through his depressed stage still, but it turns out he had other plans." Esme then brought both her hands up to her mouth and spoke though them. "Oh my gosh I feel like such a heel now. You two probably planned on going to your family for Thanksgiving and we just ruined everything."

Everything was happening so fast I didn't know what to do. Esme looked like she was about to cry. Rose just started at me with a small smirk on her face and Carlisle tried to comfort his wife.

I knew I had to get this lined out before it got any worse, but I didn't know what to say because I didn't know what me and Edward were to each other. I mean sure we kissed, but we never really came out and talked about it.

If I told them that I was just here to do an interview for the paper then would I ruin my chance with Edward because he would think that I wasn't interested in him. Or if I did tell them that we were dating with out actually talking to Edward first would he get pissed because he didn't want his family to know? Or worse then that… what if he didn't want to date period. What if he changed his mind about what happened and had regrets about the kisses we shared.

I was sinking in my quicksand thoughts and had nobody to help me get out but myself.

This was going to be difficult.

A/N

Okay so what did you guys think? When I sat down and wrote out my outline for this chapter I had wanted to do more, but I try and keep all my chapters around 8 to 9 pages long and this chapter was already there and I was only half way through the outline so therefore it had to be split into 2 chapters. Review and let me know what you thought of it. I want to try and make it up to at least 95 reviews 100 would be awesome, but the goal is 95. Also don't forget to place your vote if you haven't done it already. Thanks for reading and please review!
