Chapter 14

EPOV

I watched Bella try to pull herself together and eat her dinner. I was trying to ignore my rock hard erection. The one that had started the moment I saw Bella appear in her black dress. I think my heart stopped as well when she emerged from the bedroom. That dress was an amazing combination of class and sultriness. The way Bella's eyes lit up when she saw my reaction made my night.

I knew making her attempt her challenge at the restaurant table was a bit devious. I also knew that it would take very little for her to come. Bella's body had been keyed up most of the afternoon and remained teetering on the edge as we sat down. I loved that I knew her that well, and that Bella realized I did.

Our eyes met and Bella blushed. I reached over and stroked the side of her neck. This woman didn't bat an eyelash at giving me a blowjob on a balcony or coming to dinner without panties on. But remembering that I had made her climax several minutes ago in public made her blush.

"I love it when you blush Bella." I ran my fingers down her bare back. "Appearing so innocent, when I know better."

Bella smiled. "I definitely shed some innocence the day I met you."

I sipped my wine. "You haven't lost all of it. I love that."

"Oh I know that." A cryptic smile came over Bella's face, and I didn't miss it.

"What does that mean?"

"Nothing." Which clearly showed me it meant something. Bella pointed to my dinner. "Eat up there. You are going to need your strength." I just grinned at her. Bella reached over with her fork and speared a piece of my steak. Very gently she fed the bite to me, offered me a wink, and then returned to her own dinner.

"Hey, my turn." Bella waited and watched as I picked up a piece of her chicken and fed it to her. A little bit of sauce was left behind on her bottom lip. "Hold still." I leaned over and licked the sauce off, eliciting a tiny gasp from Bella. "Mmm. Yummy."

Bella's eyes grew dark again. "Edward," she murmured huskily.

"Soon baby. We need to finish our dinner. I figured we'd take dessert for later."

"I like that idea."

"I knew you would." I was already thinking that dessert could become part of the night's activities, depending on what Bella selected.

When the waiter came back he smiled at Bella. "I'm so pleased to see you are feeling better miss."

Bella nodded. "Yes, thank you." Under the table she nudged my leg when I started to snicker at her blush returning. She took the dessert menu he offered and began to peruse it with a little smile.

"Dessert here or to go sir?"

"Oh it will be to go. Bella, do you know what you want?"

Bella looked over at me. "Do you have an opinion?"

"Something with chocolate." I watched the wheels turn in her head. Maybe she was thinking of similar ideas for fun we could have with dessert.

"Chocolate mousse please." The waiter took the menu with a little bow and disappeared again.

"Sounds like a very delicious choice baby."

Bella took my hand in hers. "Well we might not get to eat it right away. That can go in the refrigerator for later."

We left the restaurant still hand in hand. Bella gazed up at the sky as she walked next to me. "It's lovely to be able to see the stars better."

"It is." I looked up as well. A falling star shot across the inky depths of the night sky. Bella gasped next to me and it made me smile.

"Did you see that Edward?"

"I did. Did you make a wish?" Bella paused and wrapped her arms around my waist. I pulled her in closer to me.

"I have everything I want Edward."

"Same reason I didn't make a wish." I bent down and kissed her gently. We broke apart and Bella gave me the radiant smile that melted my heart. I took her hand again and we continued back to the hotel.

Once we were back in our suite Bella put one hand on my chest. "Wait out here please, until I call you."

"I suppose. You won't take too long I hope."

Bella licked her lips and ran her hand down my chest. "Of course not. And it will be worth the wait." She sauntered off into the bedroom, closing the door behind her.

I took a deep breath and pulled my suit jacket off. I wasn't quite sure what Bella was up to, but I was pretty sure she was aiming to make my cock explode. Bella was a weapon of mass sexual destruction. I stood gazing out the window and did my best not to let my pulse race in anticipation.

The door unlatched behind me but didn't open. I waited to see what would happen next. Bella called out, "Okay sweetheart, you may join me."

I walked in but was in no way prepared for what met my eyes. Bella was leaning back against one of the bed posts, her hands cupping her breasts. She had on a short white lace robe that she held shut with her hands. Underneath I could see a white baby doll. The skirt was basically transparent, showing the white lace g-string that matched what I could see of the bra portion. Bella smiled at me and turned to walk to the head of the bed. I was mesmerized looking at her ass under the filmy fabric.

Bella glanced at me over her shoulder and then dropped the robe to the floor. She spun around, her arms still covering her breasts. Climbing up on the bed, she made her way over to the corner bed post. Watching me intently, she reached out in front of her and grasped the post in her hands.

Holy fuck. I was a dead man. Bella was doing it to me again. Mixing innocence with sex appeal. She had kept her hands against herself until now because there were no cups to her bra. Bella's exposed breasts were resting on a shelf of white lace. My fingers twitched, wanting to reach out and feel her hardening nipples. She leaned into the post and whispered, "Have I rendered you speechless."

That was one way to put it. Practically unconscious with lust was another. All I was aware of was Bella in front of me, and my raging erection. I nodded at her. "Bella, you look…..like an angel of sex." That was the best description I could come up with.

Bella giggled and pulled back against the post, her hair falling in waves behind her. "Well that was pretty much what I was going for. So I have to ask you Edward," Bella bit her lower lip and spread her knees a little farther apart. "Are you hard right now?"

I knew she could see I was. Bella just wanted to hear me say it. I had promised her I would talk dirty to her tonight. "Yes. You know the effect you have on me and my cock Bella."

Bella slid gracefully off the bed and made her way over to where I had stopped. She reached up to loosen my tie and then pulled it off. Taking her time, Bella unbuttoned my shirt. "I like you in green Edward."

"I'll remember that."

Bella opened my shirt and slid her hands across my chest. I couldn't keep my hands to myself anymore. I reached up and traced the upper slope of her breasts. "I have to say this is one of the sexiest things so far that I have had the pleasure of taking off of you."

Bella placed a soft open mouthed kiss in the center of my chest. "I've been saving it for you. I wanted to bring it out on a special night."

"Well you found one. It's good I didn't know that, I would've had you bring it out for Groundhog's day or anything else I could think of."

Bella leaned her forehead against my chest and laughed softly. "That you would." She looked up at me and I brushed her hair back off her shoulders. "I love you," Bella murmured as she pushed my shirt off to the floor.

"I love you too."

Bella locked her eyes with mine as she unbuckled my belt and unfastened my pants. With a little shove they fell to the floor. I stepped out of them and started walking forwards, backing Bella up. She reached up to pull down one shoulder strap, but I stopped her. "Leave all that on for a little bit. I want to take it off myself."

"Whatever you want sweetheart." Bella left the one strap hanging down her arm in a tantalizing way. She climbed up on the bed and crooked her finger at me as she lay back, "Come here."

"Absolutely." I joined Bella and pressed my body down into hers. She groaned and arched up into me. Her hands slid around my back and down under the waistband of my boxers. Her nails gripped me for just a moment and I pushed a little harder against her thigh.

"Edward…..I can't be patient this time." Bella's voice was rough in my ear.

My lips trailed up her neck and I nipped her earlobe. "Me neither baby." Bella wrapped one of her legs around mine and we rolled onto our sides. Our lips met in a fevered kiss as Bella rubbed against my thigh. I could feel how wet she was already through the thin fabric of her panties. I cupped one of her breasts and then flicked her hard nipple with my thumb.

Bella pulled me back on top of her with a moan. I broke the kiss and we stared at each other for a moment panting. "Please Edward."

"One moment." Bella groaned until my lips captured one of her nipples. I sucked on it for a second. "I have to take advantage of the display you have given me."

Bella giggled breathlessly, her laugh trailing off into a low moan as I wrapped my tongue around her nipples in turn. Her fingers ran through my hair, tugging when I nipped at her sensitive peaks. "Fuck," she whispered.

"I love it when I make you swear baby. Your breasts were made to be in my mouth." I kissed my way across to her other breast. "So soft and sweet, like the rest of you."

I propped myself on my elbows and looked down at her. "But I think you want something else now, don't you baby." I rubbed my erection against her and Bella whimpered. Her fingers moved from my hair and trailed down my back. I moved to whisper in her ear. "Is it my hands?" I cupped her over her panties and Bella arched up with a groan. "Or maybe you want this." I took one of her hands off my back and slid it between us, pressing it into my erection. Bella gripped me and I gasped as she rubbed me. "Do you want my cock Bella, tell me."

Bella turned her head to look at me. "I want your cock Edward. I want it in me now." Her hand shifted and started pulling at my boxers. I moved aside long enough to take them off. When I turned back Bella had already removed her panties.

"Naughty girl. I said I wanted to take that off. Roll over." Bella gave me a smile and moved to her stomach. I gave her ass a spank and she gasped and then moaned as I caressed the area. "That's for not letting me take your panties off." I unfastened the back of her top and turned her back over. Slowly I took it off and tossed it to the floor.

Bella spread her legs wide and gave me a naughty smile. I knelt back for a moment and stared at her. I must've looked too long for her liking because she suddenly announced, "I'm not a museum Edward. Here you can look and touch."

"Sorry baby. I can't help it." I settled in between her legs and teased her with the head of my cock. "You are so fucking beautiful."

Bella wrapped her legs around mine. "Well I need some beautiful fucking."

I thrust into her and we moaned in unison. I clenched my teeth for just a moment trying to avoid being overwhelmed with how she felt. Our change to no condom sex meant Bella rocked my world even more than she did before. I didn't think that was possible.

Bella rolled her hips up into mine. "Fuck you feel good. You always feel so good."

"You too baby." I withdrew slowly and thrust back hard into her and Bella moaned.

"Like that Edward, I need it like that."

I wasn't about to deny her. I started driving hard and fast into her and Bella met my every move. Her fingernails dug into my back as she sucked on the side of my neck. I pulled out and Bella eyes flew open and glared at me. "What the?"

"Flip over." I growled as I tugged on her waist. Bella licked her lips and rolled over. I slid my arm under her and tipped her hips up and thrust back into her. "Shit Bella."

Bella reached back and wrapped her hand around the back of my neck. "Need to feel you on me," she gasped, "Please."

I pressed every inch of my body down into hers and Bella let out a throaty, "Oh yes."

I wrapped my hands over her breasts as I kept pushing into her harder and faster. Bella arched back into me. The room filled with the sounds of her moans, our pants, and my grunts as our bodies collided together.

"Listen Bella, listen to what it sounds like when we fuck."

"Oh God Edward……I love it." Bella's words came out in a breathless rush.

I nudged her hair aside so the back of her neck was visible. "I more than love it." I licked the back of her neck. "I can't wait to see my mark here." I kissed the spot, loving the low moan it elicited from her.

Bella's hips were writhing hard back against me. "You're close aren't you baby?" I could feel her tightening down around me.

"Yes," Bella moaned. Fuck what that sound did to me.

I rested my lips against the nape of her neck. I slid my hand down underneath her and rubbed her clit with one finger, knowing it would send her over the edge. "Come for me. Let me feel you squeeze my cock."

"Oh fuck Edward!" Bella's body bowed into mine as pleasure rocked through her. I groaned as her walls gripped me.

"Like that Bella, oh I love that feeling." I went as deep into her as I could as my climax hit me. "Bella…." Her name left me in a deep and sudden growl as I came inside her.

Bella's head turned and she whispered into my neck. "I love you."

"I love you too baby." My lips grazed over hers. They parted automatically for me and our tongues met gently. We exchanged short breathless kisses as the final shocks of ecstasy faded. Bella's brown eyes opened and she gazed at me.

I shifted a little off to the side and Bella pouted. I stroked across her sweaty forehead. "Let me get a washcloth, and then you can cuddle up into me like I know you want to." Bella smiled and then frowned.

"Do you want me to cuddle up into you?" A little furrow of worry appeared between her eyebrows.

I had started to get up but I froze and then lay back down beside her. "Of course I do. I love having your body, all warm and relaxed up against mine." I kissed her nose. "I'll be right back."

Bella grinned. "Okay."

I brought back a washcloth and handed it to her. After she had cleaned up I tossed it in the shower and joined her again. Bella had crawled under the covers. She pulled the blanket back for me and I slid under and pulled her to me with a growl. Her reaction was what I was hoping for, a laugh. We lay there looking at each other silently for several minutes. Bella was tracing her fingers through my chest hair slowly while I stroked up and down her spine.

"What time is our appointment tomorrow?" Bella scooted in a little closer to me and I threw one leg over hers.

"One. I figured that allowed for a lazy morning and lunch before"

"Cool." Bella smiled to herself. Her stomach growled suddenly and I started to laugh. She smacked me. "Not my fault you just worked off all my dinner."

"I have the solution." I hopped out of bed and went and grabbed dessert from the fridge. Bella was sitting up when I came back, the dark maroon sheet wrapped around her. I sat and brought the sheet up over me before I offered her a spoonful of mousse. She tried to take it from me but I pulled it back.

"Nope. I get to feed you." Bella rolled her eyes but opened her mouth. I watched her lick the spoon off and felt a tightening in my groin. It didn't take very much for me to want to take her again. It must have been visible in my eyes because on the next spoonful Bella eyed me as she let out a little moan.

"Bella….." There was an undertone of warning in my voice.

"What? Feed me." She opened her mouth and I gave her another bite.

"You're taunting me."

Bella faked a look of shock. "I am not." She reached over and dipped my finger in the mousse. Leaning forward she took my finger in her mouth and swirled her tongue around it. She sucked to the tip and released it with a grin. "Now that was teasing you."

"Do it again." Bella raised an eyebrow. I put more mousse on my finger and offered it to her. She kept her eyes on mine and pulled my finger into her mouth. She licked it clean and then grazed it with her teeth before she let it go. "Jesus Bella."

"Lay down." Bella took the chocolate mousse from me and I had a hunch as to what was going to happen next. I lay back against the pillows and smiled at her. She dropped her sheet and moved to straddle me. Bella eyed my chest while she ate another spoonful. "Hmm."

Bella filled the spoon again and leaned down over me. When she first touched my skin with the cold dessert I sucked in a quick breath. Bella grinned and painted chocolate down each of my collarbones. She gathered more and ran a thick line down the center of my chest to my bellybutton. Giving me a mischievous smile she covered both my nipples with mousse.

Sitting back again Bella ate another bite. She looked very pleased with herself. "Are you going to clean up the mess you made baby?"

Bella set the mousse on the nightstand. "Oh definitely." She started at my waist and licked her way up my body. She paused at my nipples, skipping them before she attacked my collarbones. I groaned as Bella's hot tongue very thoroughly cleaned every bit of mousse off of me. Scooting back down Bella hovered over one nipple, blowing hot air on it. The combination of the cold and the heat was intense. Bella's lips surrounded the mousse there and she sucked it off, hard. My fingers gripped the sheets as she moved to the other side.

"Shit Bella." She giggled and lay down on top of me.

"Ooh, you are all sticky Edward. I don't think I did a good enough job."

I wrapped my arms around her. "No you did an outstanding job. I think we need to get in the tub."

Bella gave me a knowing smile. "I was hoping you'd say that." I leaned up and kissed her, loving the hint of chocolate still on her lips. I sucked on her lower lip before I released her. Bella got up and grabbed the mousse. "Not going to let this go to waste."

I stood up to follow her. "May I feed you the rest?"

Bella gave a little extra wiggle to her walk for my benefit I'm sure. "Oh I think you may."

I took the mousse from Bella and fed her the rest while we waited for the tub to fill. I climbed in first and patted the water in front of me. "I believe I have a spot just for you Mrs. Cullen."

Bella giggled as she climbed in. "Why thank you Mr. Cullen." She settled back against me, rubbing her ass into me for just a moment as she smiled over her shoulder.

"Tease." I growled.

"Only if I don't plan on following through. I have every intention of following through." Bella leaned back into my chest and grabbed my hands, pulling them around her waist.

I nibbled on her shoulder. Bella tilted her head to the side to allow me better access. "You taste better than any dessert."

"Really?"

"Oh yes. You are my favorite flavor ever." I ran my tongue up the side of her neck. I pulled my hands from hers and began exploring her skin under the water. I stroked up her arms, down her sides and reached under her knees. Bella anticipated what I wanted and bent her legs. My fingers skimmed up the inside of her thighs, pausing right before where she wanted it the most. I circled my fingertips there and Bella let out a little moan.

I moved my hands up and cupped her breasts. Slowly I caressed and massaged her, my touch getting firmer as Bella started arching into my hands. Her lips were parted and she murmured, "Edward."

"Yes baby."

Bella panted, "I love how your hands feel on my body."

I smiled to myself at the breathless sound to Bella's voice. I rolled her nipples between my fingers and gave them a little tug. Bella planted her hands on my thighs and dug her nails in a little. My lips trailed up and down her neck and shoulder, kissing and nipping her flesh. Bella was becoming more restless in my arms. I leaned her forward a little and kissed the back of her neck several times. "Got to get my kissing in back here to last me a couple weeks."

Bella tipped her head forward with a sigh. She reached behind herself and grasped my erection lightly. I groaned against the nape of her neck. Bella trailed her fingers down and back up before she wrapped her hand around me. Her thumb circled around the head before she stroked me hard a few times. "Fuck." I muttered as Bella returned her focus back to the head again.

My hand slid down and cupped her before I slid one finger slowly inside. Bella's hand tightened on me and then she pressed down on my fingers. "Bella, look at me." I pulled on her hip.

Bella turned and I scooted forward so that she could wrap her legs around me. She leaned forward and pressed her forehead to mine. "I love you."

"I love you too baby." A single drop of water fell from my hand on her shoulder. I followed its path down her chest with my finger to the tip of her breast. It hung there for a moment before it fell into the water. My eyes turned back up to meet Bella's. She leaned forward and kissed my forehead, then my nose, then my chin. Her mouth hovered over mine, the need and desire escalating between us. Bella's breathing started to pick up simultaneously with mine.

I slid my hands down her back and alongside her thighs. I urged her to move up over me. Bella adjusted herself and my cock pressed right at her entrance. Everything about this moment was intimate as we even shared our breaths. Lowering herself slowly, Bella locked eyes with me. We groaned together as she took me in as deep as she could. Once our hips met fully we sat there for a moment, just gazing at one another. Bella stroked her hands over my shoulders and down my arms, exploring my muscle lines. I followed her motion, running my fingers over her shoulders and across her collarbones. "I still love your collarbones. And they are still mine."

Bella rolled her hips against mine and I sucked in a harsh breath. Bella smiled and leaned her forearms on my shoulders. Her fingers circled around the back of my neck, trailing up and down there and she started riding me slowly. She was taking her time and I loved it. Bella worked her muscles to squeeze my cock at different places, causing me to gasp or moan each time. She was torturing me and by the look in her eye, she knew it.

I leaned back a little and Bella started kissing a path up my chest. The next time she slid down I grabbed her hips and ground up into her. Bella's forehead fell to my shoulder as she groaned. "Do that again Edward."

I drove up into her core slowly, rubbing her clit against my pelvis. Bella sat up a little and her head fell back. Our bodies stayed close, never parting for long or very far. I kissed the hollow at the base of her neck and Bella's fingers worked up and twisted in my hair. The water moved gently around us as I forced her to keep things slow.

"Edward, give me more." Bella pleaded.

"No. Be patient."

"Huh?" Bella's head shot up and she looked confused.

"Trust me, just let it build." I kept my eyes locked on hers. "You can feel it can't you? I can feel you just starting."

Bella nodded and whispered, "What does it feel like?"

"You get tighter, hotter, wetter around me," I groaned.

"You get harder Edward, and hotter too." Bella's eyes burned into mine like chocolate fire. "I love it."

"Oh God baby, you have no idea how much I love it. How much I love you."

Bella gasped and moaned as she writhed down on me. "Yes I do, you show me every day."

"So do you."

"Edward, I can't take it, please."

I leaned forward and brushed my lips against hers. "Then come for me baby, I need it." Our lips collided as Bella's tongue met mine. As our kiss imitated our connection, deep and lingering, Bella fell apart in my arms. Moaning into my mouth Bella's body rocked against mine as her orgasm drove her movements.

"Jesus you are gorgeous when you come." Bella's eyes opened and sought mine. I tried to hold out a little longer as Bella rode out the last tremors of her release.

"Edward, I need it too my love." The endearment was new, the husky lust filled voice I had heard before. The combination destroyed the last shreds of control I had. I arched up as my climax shot through my body. Bella responded, "Yes Edward, I love feeling you come inside me."

"Baby….oh Christ you feel so good." I drove a final time up into her and Bella pressed herself into my chest. Her entire body rubbed up along mine as she kissed her way up my neck.

"Mmm, Edward." Bella twisted her hips into mine a final time. I groaned as she basically rode the last of my orgasm out of me.

I sunk down lower in the tub, taking Bella with me. She sighed happily as I turned my head to look at her. She was leaning against my shoulder with a little smile on her face, her fingers tracing over my tattoo that would be altered tomorrow.

Stoking the side of her face I smiled at her. "I think I'm cleaner now, how about you?"

"Definitely." Bella yawned and I laughed as it almost split her head in two.

"I second that yawn. You wear me out woman."

Bella grinned and kissed the tip of my nose. "Good."

We dried off and crashed into bed. Bella wrapped herself around me and we were asleep almost instantly. When I woke up in the morning, I smiled to myself because we literally hadn't moved an inch. Bella's head was laying on my bicep, her arm snaked up around my neck. Sunlight was streaming in through the window and I looked out at the few clouds floating by. I was content. That was the best word for it. Content and happy. I had never thought I would find this.

I turned so I could watch Bella sleep. She would sleep until I woke her, I could tell. Her body was completely relaxed. Lightly I stroked the side of her face with the back of my hand. Bella smiled at my touch and held onto me a little tighter.

I must have watched her sleep for an hour. I wasn't really keeping track of time. Hell I wasn't even sure what time it was really and I didn't care. It was still morning and that was all that mattered for our schedule. Bella sighed suddenly and pressed her hips into my side. "Edward," she murmured. Bella talking in her sleep always had the promise of her saying something interesting.

"Yes baby," I whispered back.

"Love you."

"Love you too." I ran my fingers up and down her upper arm and she sighed again. She was quiet for several moments and then she moaned a little and pressed her body tighter against mine.

"Like that……mmmm."

Oh shit. That tone of voice I knew very well, and so did my cock. There was an instant tightening in my groin and I closed my eyes a moment. The masochist in me couldn't resist asking, "What do you want baby?"

Bella's fingers drifted to my shoulder and gripped it. "So hard….God."

Okay this was torture. I wanted to wake her, but she needed her sleep. "Glad you like it."

Bella groaned and flipped more onto her stomach, her arm still draped across me. "No, love it," she mumbled into her pillow. That made me chuckle.

Finally it was time to wake her up if we were going to have time to eat before we had our appointment. Plus I really had to piss. I started rubbing her back. "Baby, time to wake up."

Bella tried to shift away from my hand but I just followed her. I started scratching her back gently and Bella made a little grumpy sound. "You need to wake up if you want to get your tattoo today."

Bella burrowed her head into her pillow more before she turned and looked at me with sleepy eyes. "Can he come here so I don't have to get up?"

I laughed. "Like I'm going to let any man besides me see you lying in bed looking so tempting."

Bella raised an eyebrow before she closed her eyes again. I ran my hand down over her ass and gave it a light pat. "Uh uh. No closing your eyes again. You will jus fall back asleep."

Her eyes popped back open and she stuck her tongue out at me. Then she closed her eyes again. "Okay, you asked for it." I started tickling her side and Bella shrieked and tried to roll away from me. I wrapped my leg over hers and kept at it.

"Alright, I'm awake. You are going to make me wet the bed assbite." Bella propped herself up and her elbows and glared at me. Her hair was all tousled around her face.

"Assbite? Only if you want me to." I waggled my eyebrows at her and Bella promptly smacked my chest. I leaned over and kissed her softly. "Morning beautiful."

Bella couldn't hold back her smile. "Good morning to you too sexy."

We got dressed and ordered some breakfast from room service. One bonus of a nice hotel, they will serve you whatever you want no matter what time it is.

Bella looked a little nervous when it was time to leave for our appointment. I took her hands in mine. "Are you sure you want to do this? You can postpone if you want."

Bella rolled her eyes. "Yes I want to. I just hate needles. I mean I really hate needles."

"Well I promised you I will hold your hand and distract you. If necessary I will whisper dirty things in your ear to give you something else to think about."

Bella laughed. "Oh great. I'll get up from the chair and there will be a wet spot."

I cracked up. "Do you want me to go first?"

Bella shook her head. "Nope, I'm going first."

The ride on the bike was short to Tyler's shop. Right before we walked I wrapped my arms around Bella and she gave me a nervous smile. "You're sure?" I had to ask one last time.

Bella glared at me. "Edward. Stop asking me that. Yes I'm sure. Are you sure?"

Okay once she asked me the same question I saw her point. "Yes I'm damn sure."

Bella took my hand. "Well then let's go."

We walked in and Tyler looked up from the front counter. "Edward, good to see you man."

"Hi Tyler. Tyler this is my girlfriend Bella. Bella this is Tyler. He did the celtic tattoo I have which is why I picked him to add the change to it I want."

Bella gave Tyler a shy smile and shook his hand. "Nice to meet you."

Tyler grinned. "You too. So, I have the stencils all ready since you emailed me the design Edward. Nice job, I really like it."

"Thanks. Did you draw up some for me?"

Tyler nodded. "Yep, I have them over here. Who is going first?"

I looked over at Bella and she took a breath. "I am."

Tyler grinned. "First time right?" Bella nodded. "You will do fine." Tyler handed me the folder of designs for me and we walked over to his chair. Bella sat down facing the back of the chair and I sat on a stool in front of her.

"Okay Bella I just need to shave and prep the area. Then we will place the stencil and if it's where you want it and the size is right, we will start. Sound good?"

"Sounds good." Bella smiled at me and I flipped open the folder. I looked through the designs, Bella looking them over as well. I instantly narrowed it down to two. I looked up at Bella and held the two up.

"What do you think?"

Bella eyed the two for a moment and then pointed to the one I had in my left hand. "They are both incredible. But I like that one better."

"Good. Me too."

Tyler finished placing the stencil and had Bella walk over to the mirror. She held up a hand mirror and looked at her reflection. I saw her eyes get a little teary. "Perfect," she said.

Bella settled back down in front of me and Tyler prepared his tools and inks. I kissed the back of one of her hands I was holding. Tyler positioned himself behind Bella and lowered the chair back a little so she was at a good height for him to work. He asked, "Ready Bella?"

"Ready."

As Tyler started doing the outline Bella cringed just a little. I squeezed her hand and she squeezed back. "You okay baby."

"Yep." I peeked over her shoulder to see my design start to appear on her skin. Emotion flooded me and I felt myself fall in love with Bella more. I sat back and looked her in the eye.

"I love you."

Bella smiled. "I love you too."

BPOV

Fucking hell that needle hurt. I tried to keep my breathing even and my eyes locked on Edwards. It was worth it though. Just seeing the outline on the back of my neck made me feel like I was home. This was where I was supposed to be and Edward was who I was supposed to be with.

I flinched a little as the needle crossed over a more sensitive spot on my neck. Edward saw it and whispered, "Need distraction?"

"Yes please." I saw a wicked glint come into his green eyes and I raised an eyebrow. "Remember Cullen, what goes around comes around."

Edward just smiled and leaned in closer to me. "You were talking in your sleep this morning."

I felt my cheeks get hot. "Oh great. What did I say this time?"

Edward whispered, "Well you told me you loved me. Then there was the moaning while you said 'like that'." He grinned. "And then you told me how hard I was. And when I told you I was glad you liked it, you told me you loved it. It was very arousing to say the least."

"Okay, that definitely was distracting. I'm surprised you didn't wake me up to reenact what I was dreaming about."

"Oh I thought about it, believe me. But I decided you needed your sleep. Plus we still have tonight." Edward winked at me. "Do you remember the dream in question?"

I blushed again. "Yes."

"Will you tell me about it?"

"Not here I won't, but if you are good we can recreate it tonight."

Edward shifted and looked over my shoulder again. When he looked back at me I could see how much he loved what he saw in his eyes. "How's it looking?"

Edward gave me his crooked smile. "Fucking hot." He entwined his fingers with mine. "Also very beautiful." The look in his eyes told me exactly how much he loved seeing the tattoo on me.

"I have a question for you Edward."

Edward cocked his head and ran his hand through his hair. "Shoot."

"When we talked about me moving in, how soon were you thinking?"

Edward looked at little nervous for a second, like maybe I was backing out. I squeezed his hand. "I'm not changing my mind, stop looking worried. I just wanted to know if you had a time frame."

A sheepish smile crossed his face. "Oh. Tomorrow?"

I stifled a laugh because moving wasn't a good idea when there was a man using a needle to put a permanent design on my neck. "So as soon as possible?" Edward nodded. "Good, me too. Next weekend maybe? You will come with me right? I don't want to be there by myself."

"Of course I will baby. Next weekend sounds great." He scooted in and kissed me very lightly.

Tyler spoke up behind me. "Okay the outline is done. I'm going to start the shading with color. That is usually more uncomfortable Bella. You doing okay so far?"

"I'm surviving."

"Okay, let me know if you need a break or anything. Edward does she usually play tough?"

"Always." I glared at Edward and he just grinned.

"Well if you think she needs a break and isn't saying anything, speak up."

"Will do Tyler."

I grumbled at Edward. "You don't think I would say something?"

Edward rubbed on finger under my chin. "Nope."

I stuck my tongue out at him. We started to talk about what items from my apartment I wanted to keep and what I wanted to get rid of. Edward kept me occupied enough with planning that I was able to ignore the discomfort from the tattoo needle. Before I knew it, Tyler was turning off his machine. "All done. Let me blot this a little and you can go look in the mirror before I bandage it."

I stood up and looked at Edward. "You want the first look?"

Edward said, "I want us to see it at the same time." He took the hand mirror from Tyler and handed it to me. "I'm going to back you up to the mirror but I won't look at your reflection. When I say so you in the hand mirror and I'll look too. Make sense?" Tyler was snickering in the background.

I rolled my eyes. "Yes it does. You can't do this in an easier way can you?"

Edward grinned. "Nope." I let Edward back me up to the big mirror. He very carefully kept his eyes down. "Ready?"

"Of course."

"Okay baby, let's have a look shall we."

I held the mirror up and could see Edward's eyes looking back at mine through the reflection as we both saw my tattoo for the first time. I took a deep shaky breath, trying to hold back the onslaught of emotions that hit me. Edward's eyes darkened as he gazed from the tattoo to me and back to the tattoo. Finally I let the mirror down and just wrapped my arms around him, burying my face in his chest. "I'm yours," I whispered.

Edward rubbed my back and murmured in my ear. "Yes, forever. Are you as happy about it as I am?"

I looked up at him and smiled. "You have no idea." Edward reached up and brushed away the one tear that had escaped and was trickling down my cheek.

"Love you." Edward's eyes were soft and I could see what he was feeling at that very moment in their green depths.

"Love you too. Now get over to that chair, it's your turn." Edward chuckled and kissed me quickly.

Tyler had very kindly turned away to give us a moment. He bandaged up my neck. I hated to see it covered up, but I knew it wasn't going anywhere. Edward pulled off his t-shirt and sat down in the chair. I fought my instant desire to straddle him right then and there. My thoughts must've been visible in my eyes because Edward smirked at me

I sat down next to him and he dutifully offered me his hand. Tyler snickered and I threw him a dirty look before Edward could say anything. Tyler's eyes grew big and he looked at Edward. "Dude, I take it pissing off your woman is a bad thing. That look she just gave me for taunting you was pure evil."

Edward grinned at me and then looked over at Tyler. "She is a bit protective of me, so yes. It's best not to piss her off when it comes to me. Why were you snickering anyway?"

"Yes Tyler," I smiled at him, "Why were you snickering?"

Tyler eyed me carefully before he answered. "Well I didn't expect to see Edward needing to hold your hand while he got his tattoo."

"Oh, it's not because he's scared. It's just because we wanted physical contact while we did this, and this is the only publically acceptable one that we could do."

Edward busted up laughing and Tyler's eyes about fell out of his head. Then he started laughing too. "I like you Bella. No wonder Edward wants to keep you forever."

Glancing over at me Edward winked. "One of many reasons."

Tyler prepped and placed the stencil on Edward's chest. It was amazing how he had managed to incorporate my initial into Edward's celtic tree tattoo. Edward had selected that the bottom of the letter would start out green like the existing tattoo and then transition into dark blue.

Tyler got to work and Edward turned his head so he could look at me. We stared at each other for several minutes quietly. He smiled every time my eyes darted over to check Tyler's progress.

"So what do you want to do tonight baby?"

I shrugged. "I hadn't really thought about it yet. You have pretty much had this all planned out for the most part until now."

"True, but if there is something in particular you want to do, even if it's just watch a movie, let me know."

I sat there and thought a moment. "Can we take a walk on the beach?"

Edward smiled. "Absolutely. In fact that just gave me a great idea."

"Which you won't share with me will you?" I gave him a little bit of a dirty look.

Edward chuckled as he shook his head. Tyler asked Edward a question about the bike shop so they sat and caught up for several minutes. I held Edward's hand in my lap and played with his fingers. I traced circles over his palm and stroked up and down his fingers one by one. At one point he looked over at me out of the corner of his eye. He knew exactly what I was up to. I scaled back the innuendo of my touch and just held his hand. Finally there was a pause in their conversation and Edward looked over at me.

"Swan….." he whispered huskily.

"Cullen….." I gave him my best innocent smile.

"Like playing with fire do you?"

I bit my lower lip intentionally and looked up at him through my eyelashes. "Your fire, absolutely. Why, did I ignite it?"

Edward's eyes darkened and he whispered, "It never goes out completely. You keep me at a constant smolder."

"Good to know." I swung my feet and kissed the back of his hand.

Tyler finished up and Edward and I walked over to the mirror together. The smile and expression on Edward's face told me exactly how much he loved the result. The fact that tears started flowing for me told him I loved it. He spun me around and hugged me to his chest, avoiding pressing me into the fresh tattoo. He whispered low in my ear, "Good?"

I looked up at him. "Perfect."

Edward settled up the bill with Tyler and promised that we would be back someday. I knew now that I had survived my first tattoo, there would be more. Once we were outside Edward wrapped me up into his arms and pulled me tightly to him. "So officially you are mine now?"

I grinned. "I was yours already, but I guess now we have stated it permanently and publicly." I blushed a little. "I love it."

Edward kissed me gently. "I am also yours, permanently, have been for quite a while. And I love it too." He raised an eyebrow at me. "Now that I'm publicly yours, what are you going to do with me?"

"Wouldn't you like to know?" Two could play at this surprise game.
