We lay in each other's arms for a long time, it was only four o'clock in the afternoon and we had just made love for the first time. I looked down and Bella still had a smile on her face. The cute little thing.

She slowly lifted her head to look up into my eyes, she looked…….serene. I wanted to ask her how it was for her but it was pretty clear. I wanted to keep her here forever, but that wouldn't be possible, or practical. I wanted to tell Bella that I was in love with her, but the timing seemed a little off, like I was just saying it because I was in such a great mood having just had sex for the first time.

She sighed and then propped her head up on her arm.

"So, when you said before that you were never going to leave me alone again in public….I guess that means that you and I are….like……officially going out?" She was raising her eyebrows asking me for permission.

I smiled at her and pulled her in tighter, I should be telling her now that I love her, but I wanted it to be special, not said to appease her. "Bella, I consider you my girlfriend, I hope that's OK?" Bella looked up at me and smiled happily nodding her head. "And I hope you think of me as your boyfriend?"

She smiled and nodded at me again, sighing and burying her head into my shoulder.

"Apart from Alice, Jasper, Em, Rose and your parents have you told anyone about us?" she asked.

"Well, yeah, Tanya knows." Bella stiffened a little. "She was really good about it, and very encouraging so don't worry. And a few of the guys from school know that I'm taking you to the prom, and suspect there's probably something more going on. How about you?"

"Well Alice is my best friend so that counts that I've told someone…"

"No it doesn't, I told her about us you little cheat!"

"OK, then no, I haven't told anyone about us. But I think Mike probably knows, and it wouldn't surprise me if Jessica has figured something out as well. She usually has such a close eye on you that I'm sure she's seen us sneaking off together. And I can't wait to see the look on Lauren's face tomorrow night."

"Oh, so I'm just a piece of ass to you am I, a piece of eye candy to make your friends jealous?" I said teasingly.

"Well, yeah, I have no interest in your personality. Really I've just been working on getting you to ask me to the prom so I could stick it to all the girls in school who have the hots for you. Thought it would be a good boost to my ego." She was grinning from ear to ear.

I playfully grabbed her and pulled her up on top of me. She was straddled over my body, sitting up, her hands roaming my chest and abs.

"……although I don't consider Lauren one of my friends, and Jessica, well, I don't think she and I are going to stay in contact when we leave school if you know what I mean."

"Yeah, she doesn't really strike me as your sort of person. I'm starving, let's get dressed and get something to eat. And do put that underwear back on, I want the pleasure of pealing it off you again later!"

She slapped me playfully on the chest and climbed off the bed, looking for her clothes which were strewn around the room.

Edward and I spent the afternoon and night snuggled up on the lounge watching TV. Neither of us seemed to want to let go of each other, so watching tv seemed the best option.

Edward heated up pasta for dinner that his mother had prepared for him during the day. Good thing she'd made enough for two. It just made me think she knew exactly what each of her children was up to, and she knew I would be here and not with Alice. I guess while ever they were getting good grades and weren't out drinking Esme was OK with the current arrangement.

After the movie Edward got up from the lounge and held his hand out for me.

"Come here, I want to show you something."

He led me to his piano and motioned for me to sit beside him. He began to play. It was a tune I'd never heard before but it was beautiful. As it came to an end he looked over at me and smiled shyly.

"What was that?"

"Did you like it?" It looked important to him, but what wasn't to like?

"It was…," I was struggling to come up with the words to do it justice, "…..beautiful."

He hesitated for a moment, as if not wanting to say something. "I wrote it…….for you."

My heart literally lurched in my chest, "you wrote that……for me?" I wasn't sure what shocked me more, that he wrote such a breathtaking piece of music, or that he wrote it for me.

Edward nodded his head. He turned and cupped my face in both of his hands, leaned in and placed a very soft delicate kiss on my lips. He pressed his forehead to mine and looked deeply into my eyes.

"I love you Bella."

Oh my god, he loved me. A tear escaped my eye. The emotion of what he had just shown me and what he just said to me was overwhelming. I kissed him fiercely, wrapping my arms around his neck and drawing myself closer to him.

"I love you too Edward." I said through tear covered eyes.

"I know."

I looked at him inquisitively.

"You tell me when you're sleeping all the time." Oh my god, I wander how long that had been going on?

"Why are you crying Bella?"

"No one has ever done something like that for me before. Have you got any idea how beautiful that song was?"

"Have you got any idea how beautiful you are Bella?"

He placed his lips on mine again, this time with an urgency that told me he needed me. He swiftly picked me up and pulled my legs around so that I was straddled over him, my legs wrapped around his waist. I heard the keys on the piano clink as my back gently grazed along them. He fumbled behind him and closed the lid over the keys.

He pulled away and looked at me, there was a mischievous look in his eye.

"You know……there's something I've always wanted to do," he murmured into my ear.

"What's that?" I had no idea what he was thinking.

"Well…..no, I'm not going to tell you……I think I'll just show you."

He pulled my t-shirt up over my head. Now I was with him!

I heard a breathless sigh as he looked down over my body, pushing me backwards so I was leaning back on the piano, his hand running from my face, down my neck and between my breasts. I felt his smooth hands run around my ribcage to the small of my back where he pulled me back up to him. I lifted his t-shirt over his head.

Holding me around my ass he lifted me so I was sitting on top of the lid that covered the piano keys, my feet propped precariously against the stool for support. Edward's warm hands ran up the inside of my thighs and I felt his thumbs slip under my underwear and gently start rubbing against me. I threw my head back in ecstasy at his touch.

"Bella?"

"Ah huh," I breathed, although I was pretty sure I wasn't going to hear a word of what he had to say, I was in heaven.

"I've imagined you like this so many times." But I heard that. I pulled my head up to look at him, and as I did he moved two of his fingers inside me. I moaned loudly and the look on my face must have given it all away because the smile on his face was one of great triumph. He ran his fingers in and out of me while I writhed from the pleasure. But I wanted more.

"Edward." I grabbed his hand and made him stop. He seemed to understand and he pulled my underpants off. As he did that I pulled at the button to his shorts and pushed his shorts and boxers down in one go, but before they fell to the floor he pulled something out of his pocket.

The mischievous grin was back on his face as he kissed me, running his tongue along my upper lip. He was trying to distract me from the condom he was fumbling with.

"Well aren't we prepared, you had one in your pocket?"

"I told you, I've imagined us doing this before."

"I see." He pulled my body forward just slightly so I was sitting precariously on the edge of the piano. He pulled my legs up so they were wrapped around his waist. I could feel his hardness pushed up against me. And then he slowly pushed his way inside me. I arched my body up towards him as he groaned in pleasure. His hands were on my hips, supporting himself as he slowly thrust in and out.

I moaned as he went deeper and deeper. He moved one of his hands up behind my back and unsnapped my bra. I was practically naked now, only my skirt pushed right up around my hips as Edward and I made love against his piano.

Edward began thrusting faster, sensing that I wasn't going to be able to balance on the edge of the piano forever, and I wasn't going to balance on the edge of the tightness that was very quickly bringing me to ecstasy.

"Ah.. Edward," I moaned.

"Bella, I love you so much." I grabbed his shoulders pulling him into me. His mouth pressing over mine as his thrusts came faster and harder. I could feel his erection get even harder just before he came, moaning my name, "Bella!" And just as he did I let myself go, tightening the grip my legs had around his body.

Edward stood there, his arms wrapped tightly around my body, holding me tightly against him, trying to get his breath back. He pulled away and cupped my face in his hands. He leaned his forehead against mine, the mischievous grin was back.

"So, was that just as you imagined Cullen?"

"That was so much fucking better than I ever imagined it wasn't funny Swan. All thanks to you."

"Oh, I can guarantee it wasn't all thanks to me, you did a pretty good job yourself."

We giggled at each other as I climbed down, looking around for various pieces of clothing. My bra was on the piano strings under the lid. Edward had to reach in and fish it out.

"Need this?" He said twirling it around his finger.

"Not if you're going to keep ripping it off me I won't!" I pulled my t-shirt on over my head, Edward still twirling my bra around. He looked approvingly at me in the tight fitting t-shirt, showing every curve of my breasts and my very hard nipples.

"Well, I think I like that look so much better anyway!" He said looking down.

"Yes, but it's not really an every day look is it?" I said flirtatiously.

"Well, whenever I'm around it is! Just make sure you cover up whenever Newton is in your vicinity." I playfully slapped him on the shoulder.

"Edward!!"

"He still has the hots for you you know?"

"That's not true!"

"Oh, I can assure you it is. What you said before about him suspecting we're together. I'm pretty sure he knows and he's as jealous as hell."

"How do you know?" I asked inquisitively.

"The way he looks at me whenever I'm anywhere near you. He positively seethes, it's hilarious. Just imagine how he's going to feel on Monday when everyone in school knows we're together!"

"Oh, don't be awful to him." I was feeling sorry for Mike, although I don't know why really.

"Come on Swan, I'm tired."

"Do you mind if I have a shower before we go to bed?" Edward lifted his eyebrow suggestively.

"Not at all, as long as I can join you." I blushed like crazy. I wasn't exactly sure why. After what he'd done to me this afternoon, twice, I had absolutely nothing to hide.

"OK, but no funny business OK. I'm too tired."

We were half way up the stairs by this stage.

"Me too, I promise I won't try anything in the shower." I'm pretty sure he said like hell under his breath as we reached the top of the stairs and headed for the bathroom.

Edward closed the door behind us, then reached in and turned the shower on. As it warmed up we got undressed, standing naked in front of each other. We'd had sex twice now but I still hadn't really had the chance to fully to appraise his body. As he turned and stepped into the shower I saw his naked ass clearly for the first time, it was spectacular.

He turned around and caught me looking at him, I quickly closed my mouth which had popped open.

"Were you perving on me Swan?"

"Well, yeah, isn't that the whole idea of showering together?" I stepped into the shower and under the warm water. His arms wound around me as he kissed me sweetly, the water running all around us.

Edward grabbed the soap and gently ran his soapy hands over my shoulders, and down my arms. It was all very sweet rather than sexy.

When we were done we wrapped ourselves in our towels and went back to his room, towels quickly falling to the floor when we got there. We climbed into bed naked next to each other, and wrapped ourselves around each other. Exhausted.

"When did I first tell you that I love you Edward?" God I hope this wasn't too embarrassing.

"The night of our first date." Oh god that was worse than I thought.

I groaned and buried my head into his shoulder embarrassed at having admitted something like that to him so quickly. "Do I say it very often?"

"Most nights when I'm awake to hear it you say it at least once."

I groaned again. "I'm so sorry."

"What? It's so sweet Bella, I love it. I'm just so sorry I didn't say it back to you sooner. I was waiting for the perfect moment."

"Well I think today at the piano was definitely the perfect moment."
