BPOV

I looked up from my book with a start when I heard the door bang open and saw Edward come inside - he didn't look like he was in a good mood.

"Edward?"

"I'm going to take a shower. I'll be back down in a few minutes."

I sat there not knowing what to think.

Five minutes later Edward was back downstairs.

"Are you okay?" I asked when he threw himself on the couch next to me.

"I am now," he said as he ran his hand through his hair.

"What happened?"

"Run ins with the skank twins," he said.

"What did they do? I thought they only picked on me."

"No love, they noticed you weren't there. So it was open season on me."

"Did they ask you out?"

"Not exactly - more like offer up their bodies to me. And...well, Tanya kissed me - I didn't kiss her back. She just grabbed me and threw herself on me. Believe me, baby, I would have rather kissed a dog."

"Stupid bitch," I mumbled.

"You aren't mad at me?" he asked.

"No. Why would I be mad at you?"

"Because she kissed me and touched me."

"I would only be mad at you if you enjoyed it," I said looking down at my hands. Suddenly I felt very self-conscious.

His hand slid under my chin, raising my eyes to his. "I didn't enjoy it at all, baby, not even a little - I felt ill and dirty, that's why I took a shower as soon as I got home."

"Um...you haven't kissed me," I said shyly looking up at him.

"I wanted to tell you the what happened first."

His hand moved up to cup my cheek as his lips moved down to mine.

His kiss started out gentle and as I opened my mouth to him he deepened the kiss.

Our tongues claiming each others as I fisted my hands in his hair.

He pulled his lips away to breathe, but they never left my skin.

He moved down to my neck kissing and sucking the skin there.

"Edward," I breathed against his ear.

A throat cleared behind us and we both jumped away from each other.

Esme was standing in the doorway from the kitchen - a smirk on her face.

Edward's face rivaled mine in whose was redder.

"I'm sure you both have some homework that needs doing," she said with a laugh.

"Um...yeah. But I think we need to eat lunch first, mom. I am home early," he said with a smirk.

"Okay, come in the kitchen and I will make you both some lunch, and then do your homework. We don't want Bella to get too behind on her homework," Esme said with a smirk of her own.

We followed her into the kitchen and sat at the table as she made us some lunch.

I really wasn't looking forward to doing homework, but the way Edward and his mom were smirking, I didn't think we'd get too much homework done.

Just watching how Edward interacted with his parents made me sad that my home life wasn't better.

Charlie was great. I loved living with him. We were a lot alike. We were both quiet and did our own thing, but when we did talk and hang out it was nice.

I wished that he was still here. Then I'd be living with him and wouldn't be hurt right now, but then would me and Edward be together.

"Bella, are you okay dear?" Esme asked as she sat a plate down in front of me.

"Yeah, just thinking."

"About what love?" Edward asked as he touched my hand.

"My dad."

"You miss him, don't you?"

"Yeah, I do. I can't help but wonder how different my life might have been in I lived with him now."

Edward put his arm around me.

"You might have know what an amazing woman you are," Edward told me. "But I will see to it that you know it."

I couldn't stop the tears that fell from my eyes, and sobs escaped me.

Edward didn't know what he said and he looked to his mom to find out what he should do.

"What's wrong, baby?" he asked with concern in his voice.

"Th...that was one of the last things my dad told me, that I was going to grow up to be an amazing young lady," I said as the tears fell faster.

"Sounds like your dad could see the future, because you are amazing Bella," Edward told me.

I couldn't help but laugh, I don't feel amazing. I feel like a lost little girl who is afraid of everything.

"Bella, don't laugh. You are amazing, you're strong and brave. And we will make sure you see it. We all love you, Bella and you are a part of this family," Esme said pulling me into a hug.

"I wish that you were my mom," I whispered against her ear.

"I'm your mom now, Bella - you are a part of this family."

I could feel Edward's hand on my back as I pulled away from Esme.

"I'm sorry that I fell apart like that," I said wiping my tears away.

"It's okay baby, I'm just glad that you are here with us and we can show you how much we love you," Edward said as he pulled me closer to him.

I smiled up at him.

As we finished eating, Esme told us that she was leaving to go out for a bit and to behave ourselves.

Edward led me upstairs to his room and we sat on the bed to do homework.

Edward opened his bio book and I watched as he read the assigned chapter and I tried really hard to focus on the words but my mind kept wandering to other things.

I stretched out my leg and ran my foot up his leg.

I moved my foot farther up his leg up to his crotch and I gently pressed my foot to his hardness.

He moaned softly at the pressure of my foot there.

"Bella," he whined. "I'm trying to read."

"Sorry," I said with a laugh as I pulled my leg back.

I laid my book on the bed and moved to sit on my knees as I leaned into him.

"Edward," I whispered.

"Hmm," he said still reading the book with a hint of a smile on his face.

I scooted behind him and leaned into his back, running my tongue up behind his ear.

"Bel...la," he said as his breath hitched.

I smiled slightly against his ear.

I moved around him, my lips just barely skimming his skin from ear to lips.

He still tried to ignore me, but I can tell it's getting harder for him as I ran my hand over his thigh.

"Screw it," Edward said, pushing his books to the floor and pulling me into his lap.

His mouth devoured mine as he settled me over the bulge in his pants.

We moaned into each others mouths when I rocked against him.

His hands moved down to my behind, holding me right against him, helping me rock against him more.

I broke our kiss to catch my breath - Edward's lips never left my skin. He kissed down my neck and across my collarbone as he continued to pull me against him.

My fingers threaded into his hair - pulling his mouth closer to my chest.

His tongue dipped down into my tank top, licking at the swell of my breasts.

One hand crept up to my tank top, pulling the front of my shirt and bra down exposing my breast.

He sucked it deep in his mouth - all the while keeping us rocking.

I moved one of my hands down between us and popped the button of his jeans.

Our movement only slowed a moment as we both worked together to get his pants off.

His jeans only made it past his knees before he was pulling my top over my head.

I felt hungry and desperate as I reached around me and hurriedly undid my bra.

Edward was pulling off his shirt as I wiggled out of my pants and underwear.

No words seemed necessary - we both knew what the other wants. I need him - that's all I know right now, all that matters.

Once free of my pants I reached up to pull Edward's boxers down to his knees with his pants.

Edward pulled me over him, lining himself up under me and pulling me down hard onto him.

"Oh god," I breathed out as he filled me, his hands on my rear pulling me hard against him.

His breathing was ragged and his lips were hungry as his tongue pushed in my mouth and our bodies rocked in unison.

I've never felt such all consuming need, it's like my body can't function without him.

He seemed to be feeling the same thing I was, one hand gripped the flesh of my bottom tightly, while the other was splayed between my shoulder blades, keeping my body flush against his.

Our bodies moved as one, my hands moving through his hair and across his shoulders - his body moving in and out of mine spiraling closer and closer to release.

Sweat built between our bodies as we moved more frantically against each other.

"Oh my god, Edward, oh my god," I called out as I came hard around him.

"Bella, my Bella," he said against me and I felt him release in me harder than he has before.

My body went limp in his arms and we leaned heavily against each other as our breathing and heartbeats calmed.

My sweaty skin began to chill and a shiver ran through me - Edward noticed and pulled the comforter up over my shoulders.

"That was...unbelievable, baby. Are you feeling alright?"

"I'm fine. It was so good," I said as I shifted in his lap.

"Do you mind if I take a look at your stitches...just to make sure?"

"No, go ahead."

I leaned back - he's still inside me - and he ran his fingers over my incision.

"It looks a little red, are you sure you're fine?"

"I'm perfect...because of you," I told him with a smile.

I shifted in his lap again and smiled up at him.

His breath came out in a hiss, "I wish I could just stay inside you - this is my favorite place."

"I wish you could too. I love feeling you so deep," I said moving against him.

I could feel him get hard again as I moved over him.

"God, Bella," he breathed heavily against me. "I just can't get enough of you."

Edward leaned me back until my back touched the bed, tucking his legs beneath him and raising to his knees, never breaking our contact. Watching him turned me on even more as I saw all his muscles flex beneath his skin.

His hands slid to my hips and held me to him, thrusting into me hard, making me moan loudly.

My hands fist into the comforter beneath me - Edward gave me so much pleasure - I didn't know I could feel this good until I met Edward.

Edward's fingers dug into the flesh of my hips pulling me to him as he thrusted wildly into me.

"You are so beautiful, Bella. You are everything I ever dreamed of...everything I want - just you."

"I want to be everything for you," I told him, meeting his every thrust.

"You already are, baby," he said pushing into me harder.

I moaned out loudly from the force of his thrust, as I grabbed onto his headboard.

"Say my name, Bella, please. I need to hear you say my name."

"Edward, fuck me Edward," I screamed as he pounded into me

"Fuck, Bella - hearing you say that...I can't even...fuck..."

Edward gripped me even tighter as I felt warmth flood inside me. "Fuck, baby, I love you so much," he groaned as he spilled inside me.

Hearing him call out his love for me pushed me over the edge as my walls clamped down on him.

"Fuck yes, Edward," I moaned.

Edward pulled out of me and collapsed next to me on his bed.

"Wow...you are a walking sexual fantasy, you know that, baby?" he asked propping himself on his elbow.

I couldn't help the laugh that escaped my lips.

"What's funny, baby? I'm completely serious."

"I just don't see how you can say I'm a walking sexual fantasy. I'm just me, nothing special. You are the one who makes me feel this way, like I am someone to be loved, cherished. You, Edward, only you have made me feel this way. I'll be whatever you want me to be," I said as I looked into his eyes.

"You are special to me, baby and the only thing I ever want you to be is just yourself - to me that's what makes you special, that you are always just you. Can I confess something to you?"

"Baby, before we had sex I touched myself thinking about you - believe me, you are a fantasy."

"How long have you thought of me that way?" I asked.

"For a while," he told me with a grin.

"Seriously Edward, I need to know. How long?" I asked.

"Since last year," he whispered ducking his head so his eyes were hidden from me.

"I...I've liked you for a while too. I even dreamed of you, but...I knew I wasn't worthy of you."

"You are more than worthy of me, baby. I love you so much, and I hate that we wasted so much time, we could've been together sooner."

"I love you so much, Edward, I'll try my best to be worthy of you."

"I love you too, and you are worthy of me," he said as he cupped my face in his hands as he leaned in to kiss me.

He looked at the clock and sighed.

"What?" I asked.

"We have to get dressed, Alice and the parents should be back soon. I don't think we want them or Alice walking in on us like this."

"Yeah, I'm sure that would be majorly embarrassing."

I leaned into him and kissed him again, "Thank you."

"For what, love?"

"For loving me and making me feel so fucking fantastic."

"Your welcome baby, you make me feel fucking fantastic too."

We got up and got dressed and went downstairs just as the front door opened.

The rest of the evening was spent eating dinner and talking about the upcoming ski trip.

Dr. Cullen handed me my very own credit card and Alice squealed saying how we needed to go shopping for the trip.

With all her talking and all of our fun in Edward's bedroom, I was pretty tired.

So I turned in early.

About a half hour after I went upstairs there was a knock at my door.

"Come in," I called.

"Hey Bella, are you feeling okay?" he asked.

"Yeah, I'm just tired. You wore me out this afternoon," I said with a smile.

"I'm pretty tired. My fuck hot girlfriend wore me out too," he said with a smirk.

I playfully hit his shoulder as he pulled me into a hug.

"If you need me tonight, you know where I am," he said as he brought his lips to mine.

"I know. I love you," I said hugging him.

"I love you too. See you in the morning," he said as he walked across the hall to his room.

I went to get changed and then climbed into my bed and fell asleep quickly.

I woke up and looked at my clock and it said it was five-thirty. I slept through the whole night.

I stretched and felt a warm body next to me.

I sat up and looked to find Edward laying on his stomach with his arms under the pillow.

He looked so beautiful and carefree laying there.

I traced my finger over his nose and across his lips.

How am I so lucky that this man loves me?

He didn't wake up as I traced his lips and over his cheeks, so I leaned in and kissed his lips.

It took about a minute before I felt his lips moving against mine.

I pulled away and looking into his sparkling green eyes.

"Good morning," I whispered.

"Morning baby. Feel free to wake me up like that anytime," he said with a smile.

"What are you doing in here?" I asked moving the hair off his forehead.

"I just needed to be near you, I missed you."

"I missed you too," I said kissing him again.

"You didn't have any nightmares and didn't come to my room, so I came to yours."

"I'm glad I didn't have nightmares but I'm glad you decided to join me - maybe that's why I slept so well."

"Well love, I guess I'll have to sneak in here more often," he said with a smirk.

He looked over at the clock and groaned.

"I have to get ready for school soon."

"Yeah you do," I said stretching my arms.

"I wish you were going. I miss you terribly."

"I know, maybe in a week I will be able to go."

"I just wish it was now," he whined.

"Edward, do you want to shower together?" I asked.

He sat up and pulled me to him.

"Do I get to be a naughty boy?" he asked with a smirk.

"That's why I asked you to join me," I told him with a smirk of my own.

He hopped up from the bed and reached for my hand pulling me to the bathroom.

He turned on the water, making sure it wasn't too hot.

He took off his pajama pants, t-shirt and stepped into the shower as I undressed.

He held out his hand to help me in the shower.

He pulled me to him and wrapped his arms around me as he leaned in for a kiss.

His kiss started soft but deepened quickly as his hands began to roam my body.

They smoothed over my breasts, down my thighs and in between my legs.

"You are always so turned on when I touch you, baby." he told me as he began to stroke between my folds.

"I always want you, Edward. I'm turned on just looking at you."

He pushed two fingers inside and I gasped at the feel of him.

"Edward," I murmured.

He drew one of my legs up, pulling it around his waist.

I could feel his erection against my thigh.

He removed his fingers from me and slid his hand around to my bottom and in one move pulled my other leg up and pressed my back to the wall.

He held me steady and pushed into me and even though it had been less than 24 hours since the last time we were together - it felt like longer - it amazed me how much I always want him.

His muscles flexed across his chest as he held me up and pushed into me, bringing moans and whimpers from my lips.

I noticed Edward looking down and I followed his gaze - he was watching himself enter my body and I could tell he really liked it.

I tried to ignore my self conscious feelings - I'm more exposed to Edward than I have ever been, but judging from the low moans coming from him chest he was enjoying what he saw and I found that completely amazing.

This new position was rubbing everything just right - reaching deep inside me and rubbing along my clit as well - I knew I won't last long.

Edward's arms were beginning to tremble and his thrusts were becoming more erratic.

"Come with me, baby," he said with a grunt as he thrusted into me harder.

"So close, Edward," I panted as I held onto his shoulders.

I couldn't help the moans that were coming from me. I was glad that my room was on the third floor.

My walls quivered and clamped down on him as I felt him harden and explode inside me.

"Fuck Bella, so good. Y...you are so beautiful," he said as he continued to thrust inside as I came hard over him.

"Edward, mmm...Edward, y...you feel...oh fuck...so good."

He wrapped his arm around my back and held me to him as we caught our breath.

"I love you baby, so much. You mean more to me than anything."

"I love you too, Edward."

I grabbed the soap as he sat my feet down and I washed him quickly.

After I was done he gently washed me and then we got out of the shower and got dressed.

We went downstairs and had breakfast with everyone.

I felt a little nervous like everyone would know that we've just had sex.

But no one knew anything.

After breakfast, Edward and Alice left for school.

He said good bye to me on the porch and I watched him drive away.

As I was standing there I had the odd feeling like someone was watching me.

I dismissed it as my paranoia and went back inside to help Esme clean up.

We worked together to clean up the kitchen.

After the kitchen was clean Esme asked me if I would dust the living room.

I told her I would love to do that for her.

I needed something to do, and I wanted to make myself useful while I was home from school.

It was while I was dusting that I saw a movement outside a window - someone was in the bushes.

I didn't know what to do, I just finished dusting hoping that whoever it was would just go away.

When Esme and I go to the laundry room to fold clothes we both saw someone walking around the yard - and it was Phil.

My heart started beating frantically in my chest and I felt as if I was going to pass out.

I was so scared that he would hurt me again or Esme.

"Is that...?" Esme started, staring out the window.

"Y... yeah," I stuttered as my hands shook.

"Who does that guy think he is? I'm just going to give that guy a piece of my mind."

"Please don't," I begged, clutching at her arm. "He'll...he'll hurt you."

"Nonsense dear, I can handle myself," she said as she walked towards the door.

I pulled my phone from my pocket - I had 9 and 1 already pushed - it would only take a second to push 1 again - I couldn't let anything happen to Edward's mom.

Esme walked right out the door, "What the hell do you think you're doing on my property?" she yelled.

Phil looked surprised at first, but then his expression changed to his fake sweet look - I hoped Esme saw right through it.

"Good morning, I was just coming to visit Bella. Her mother and I really miss her."

Esme sniffed loudly, "I seriously doubt that - you mean you miss having a punching bag and slave."

Phil's face turned hard - I know that look, he was pissed now.

"I don't know what that little bitch told you, but it's all lies."

"You will not talk about Bella that way and you will not see her."

Phil laughed right in her face, "And just what do you think you're going to do to stop me?"

I was literally frozen in my spot, and shaking so hard.

I was afraid for myself and for Esme. She doesn't know what she was up against.

"You don't know jack shit about me, Mister - I could be a black belt in karate or have a gun on me - do you really want to risk that? If Bella is what you say she is why do you even care? But if you're feeling brave, then try me, but I guarantee - if there is so much as one of my hairs out of place, hurt will come down on you like you can't even imagine."

Phil looked from Esme to the house - I don't think he can see me, but I have the feeling he knows I'm there.

"Neither of you is worth of my time," he yelled. "You can pretend all you want, Bella, but you'll never be more than a worthless whore!"

"You get the fuck out of here now why you still can and if I see you so much as a half mile near this house again there will be no words, only action."

I couldn't not believe Esme said that word, she always seems so proper.

Phil took one last look at Esme then turned and walked off. Esme watched him until she couldn't see him anymore and then came back inside.

I was shaking so hard as she came back in.

"Bella, everything is okay. He's gone and he won't hurt you anymore," she said calmly.

"How...did you do that? You were so brave - he could have hurt you."

Esme put her hands on my shoulders and looked me in the eye. "That's what a mother does for her children, she will face any danger to keep them safe."

I couldn't help the tears that filled my eyes, Edward's family was so wonderful. "Thank you - I've never had a real mom before." Esme pulled me into a hug and held me until I have no more tears.

"You do now, sweetheart," she murmured.
