Twilight is not mine, it goes to the proud owner of Stephenie Meyer. I'm just having serious fun playing with her creation.

Chapter 21: Tag, You're It

This was going to be good! I couldn't contain my excitement at the mere thought of seeing Bella in a bikini. Sure, I had seen her with even less on than that but it was the idea of what she was hiding behind the clothes that were so appealing. Don't ask, I can't explain it.

We were all heading down to the lake and I was currently waiting outside the tent in my swim shorts while my wife changed inside, why she wanted the privacy, I don't know. When she finally emerged, my jaw hit the ground and my eyes nearly bugged out of my head. Bella wore a hot pink leopard print bikini that did wonderful things to her breasts*.

'WHOOA, day-um…Bella has cleavage!' upon hearing Emmett's remark, I immediately jumped in front of thee a fore mentioned cleavage and attempted to hide it from prying eyes.

"Bella, go put on a sweater!" I growled out and tried to keep my attention off her chest and on my brother, who was still ogling my wife. "Stare at your own wife's body and stop staring at mine!" I snapped and tried to shove Bella back into the tent but she wouldn't move.

Emmett looked shocked, both by Bella and by my aggression. He waved his hand in front of him crazily. "But, but…we've never seen…I didn't know…but, SHE HAS BOOBS!"

I growled menacingly at him and backed toward the tent again. "Thanks for stating the obvious Emmett, NOW GO DROOL OVER YOUR OWN WIFE!" I attempted to shove Bella through the flap again and again I failed. "Bella get inside and change now."

Bella just scoffed and walked away from me toward the lake, swaying her hips just enough to drive me insane. I felt my mouth start to water, well venomate – venomace – venomy…you know what I mean.

'Damn Eddie…' I nodded in agreement and snarled at the lusting tone of his thought.

I couldn't take my eyes off Bella as she walked down to the water, towel in hand, the rays of the sun glinting off her skin and shooting rainbow diamonds everywhere. I was transfixed as I watched her glittery hips sway and her bikini bottom dropped a little bit. I moaned quietly and tried to squash the rising muscle south of the border.

A strong slap on the back yanked me from my squashing and I looked to see Emmett passing me with a huge grin on his face. 'If you don't hurry, I'm going to dunk your wife.'

I took after him speedily, catching up to him before he reached Bella. The momentum of my speed when I slammed into him sent us rolling down the slight slope and directly into the water. We emerged from the water at the same time and a split second later, I lunged at him again. There was no way in hell he was ever going to touch Bella, even in play.

Emmett lay in the shallows of the water, laughing profusely, going so far as to grabbing his stomach. "Aren't you a jealous one, Eddie?"

I glared daggers at my brother and raised my fist to show him my hatred for that name.

'Oh shit…'

"DON'T CALL HIM EDDIE!" Before I could blink, Bella was flying at Emmett and was shoving his head under the water. She stood over him, holding his head under the water as he thrashed about. Oxygen wasn't a necessity for us but breathing was habitual and we preferred to fill our lungs from time to time. She continued to shove his head underwater for several more minutes. What was sad was that his own wife sat on the bank absorbing the sun's rays, laughing at him.

"If you're done unsuccessfully drowning Emmett, how about we play a game of paint ball?" Jasper asked with a coy grin as he wiggled his eyebrows up and down. 'This is going to be great! Get rid of some pent up aggressions as well.'

"Paint ball, are you serious?" Bella ceased her tormenting of Emmett, her hands still on his head and under the water.

'Edward, get this thing you call a wife off me!'

I scoffed at my brother's request then stepped over to Bella and placed my hand on her shoulder. "Bella, take mercy on the little bear cub okay."

Emmett's head shot out of the water quickly. "What do you mean 'little bear cub'…"

Bella shoved his head back under the water as she stood up, successfully cutting him off. She then stepped over Emmett and walked towards me. "Are we really going to play paint ball?"

I ran my hands up and down her arms and gave a pitiful smile. "Oh, why not?"

She groaned unhappily then laid her forehead on my bare chest, just that minute touch stirred something within me, the lower me. I could guarantee that this game of paint ball was going to be very short for Bella and for me.

We all exited the waters and ventured back toward the tents. So much for our little dip in the lake, at least it didn't look like Bella was planning to change out of her bikini when we all assembled around Emmett's tent. Without a word, Emmett started handing out guns. Bella got the blue, I got the green, Alice the white, Jasper the black and Emmett took the red. Carlisle and Esme were always spectators in our paint ball wars and Rose stated she didn't dare get paint in her hair and continued to lounge in the sun.

I gave Bella a crash course in how to use the gun and she surprised me by shooting me in the chest at point blank range. She bit her bottom lip as she smiled then she took off like a bat out of hell into the forest. As she ran toward the trees, she popped off five shots directly at Alice, nailing each shot in her chest or shoulders. Why do I have a feeling that my sweet wife actually knew how to use a gun?

Naturally, I took chase after Bella, weaving in and out and around the trees, following her delicious strawberry scent. I hate to say it but I finding Bella was my main priority and I didn't care about the explosions of red, black and white as I zipped through the forest.

Several minutes later, I finally found her. I came to a screeching halt and stared down the barrel of her gun. I cringed and looked away just as I heard a loud popping sound. I opened one eye slightly when I didn't feel anything hit me then my sister's thoughts and words rang out.

'Oh. My. God!' "What the hell Bella, am I your target or something?"

I tilted my head to look behind me and was shocked at the sight I saw. Alice was absolutely fuming, the gun in her hand lying at her side, her eyes narrowed at the woman in front of her, and a large blue splatter mark right between her eyes. There was no question about it now. My wife, my Bella knew how to shot, and she was rather good at it as well.

Hesitantly, I turned my head around to look at Bella. Her gun was still poised in midair, aimed at my pixie of a sister, a very determined look on her face. She arched a single eyebrow at my sister's question then smirked slightly.

"Are you kidding me? You're constantly trying to drag Edward and me apart to do things you want to do! Have you forgotten we're newlyweds who want some privacy? So naturally you would have a hit out on you!" Bella ranted and all I could do was nod in agreement.

"A hit out on me – what, are you an assassin now?" Alice's voice actually jumped up about three octaves as she posed her question. Bella smirked and pulled back the slider to reload the gun. She held the gun up confidently and took aim at the now frightened pixie. A loud pop, a swish of air and a splatter later, Alice stood stunned, speechless for once.

"Bang, your dead…again," Bella stated flatly then blew air over the top of her gun.

Alice had another wet blue spot on her forehead and I chuckled quietly at her astonished expression. We stared at each other for several minutes, in complete silence. Without warning, Alice screamed loudly in frustration then started shooting her paint ball gun like a crazed woman.

Bella and I immediately fled into the trees, dodging the random and chaotic flying white paint balls. We weaved in and out of the trees and bushes as Alice continued to scream into the air. Even her thoughts were chaotic, full of hopeful images of Bella coated in dripping white paint.

Alice's crazed screaming faded as we ran through the forest and for that, I was grateful. I ran alongside Bella and snatched up her hand then directed her toward a special spot I had found nearly a century ago. I pulled her through the underbrush and low laying branches until we came face to face with a high rocky cliff. We stopped at the base of the cliff and Bella's eyes grew wide as she looked up toward the clouds, looking for the top.

I chuckled quietly as I watched her amazement. "This isn't what I wanted to show you."

A small 'o' formed on her mouth and the diminutive gesture went straight to my lower regions. I didn't warn her or anything and threw her onto my back, securing her legs around my waist and latching her arms around my neck. I ignored her questions about what I was doing as I leapt up the rocky cliff, jumping from rock face to stone outcropping.

Once I reached my destination, I let Bella slid down my back and land on her feet. I scoffed when Bella looked around her new surroundings and raised an eyebrow. "I like to come here and get away from all the noise," I tapped a finger against my temple, implying the thoughts that didn't belong to me.

Bella walked further into the cave and continued to look around. It was your basic cave, three rock walls, stone ceiling, earthy flooring and one open wall overlooking the natural canopy of the forest. She walked toward the opening and gazed out over the landscape.

My breathing caught in my lungs as I watched the diamonds dance over her skin wherever the sun kissed her, caressing each inch of her alabaster skin, which was a lot considering she was still wearing the bikini. The sun made it look as if her skin was coated in sparkly sugar and looking oh so delicious. Oh great, now I was jealous of the sun!

The pull to my wife was too strong for me to resist anymore and I walked up behind her. I placed one arm around her chest and the other around her waist and pulled her firmly against my chest and lower torso, making her aware of my current problem. Bella whimpered as I bored my erection into her back.

I slide my left hand between her skin the top of her bra and started to massage her breast. My right hand that was around her waist, inching into her bikini bottoms and tickled their way down to her clit. She gasped loudly as I started to make circles with my thumb over the sensitive nub and my long fingers continued down too probe into her slick deliciousness.

Bella continued to wiggle, writhe, and moan against me. Her arms fought for the slightest amount of freedom as they trailed behind her and grabbed my growing ardor forcefully. I had a difficult time focusing on giving pleasure when my wife was skillfully maneuvering her petite hands into my swimming trunks and started to stoke up and down my length. My jaw clenched tightly and I growled when she pulled me from my trunks and continued to massage me, more eagerly this time.

A little shakily, I took a couple steps backwards, my hands still wrapped around Bella tightly. The hand that was already in her bikini bottoms move downward a little more and pulled the small strap of fabric to the side.

With one more good strong pull of her hand, I fell to my knees, successfully impaling my wife on my steel shaft. We both cried out in unison at the sudden completion of our souls. Bella arched her back, causing her head to rest on my shoulder and her pelvis to bear down. My eyes rolled to the back of my head when she started to rock her hips on the part of my anatomy that was inside her. I placed one hand on her hips, helping her movements while the other stayed inside her bottoms and maneuvered back up toward her clit where I traced figure eights with my index finger.

She cried out and her walls clamped down on me like a vise grip on metal, which drove me crazy, and I fell backwards on to my back. Bella's pace picked up as she placed her palms on my knees and she rode me in reverse feverishly. My hands pulled on the rock floor and I felt the stones giving way around my fingertips. Bella's back arched again as her inside griped me again and she screamed out my name huskily. Her screaming my name and clamping down again sent me over the cliff. I arched my back also, driving myself further inside and I emptied myself inside her.

Bella panted heavily then fell back and landed on my chest. "Well, that was different…not that I'm complaining."

I smirked at her comment. "I aim to please my love," I said between pants and pressed a kiss to the top of her head, which elicited a small smile, and an equally small moan of pure bliss and satisfaction.

After our cavern activities, we returned to camp. Everything was normal except for Alice's constant glare that she directed at my wife. We told jokes and ghost stories throughout the night, holding our mate closely as we sat around the unneeded campfire.

We camped out for another week, letting our bodies absorb nature and as much sun as we possibly could. Everyone managed to find time away with his or her mate at several points during the week, each couple heading off into a different direction. Had Bella known we would be getting this much alone time with each other, I bet she would have wanted to go camping a lot earlier.

In a way, I was glad we were finally home, to have Bella all to myself, not to worry about prying eyes, or worrying that Alice would jump out from behind a bush and assault her with paint balls, was a load off my shoulders. When you're an immortal that never sleeps, it's strange when you feel exhausted and tired.

I drove us back to the apartment after we had stopped at the main house and deposited some of the camping gear that appeared in the back of my car miraculously. I watched her relaxed position in the seat as I drove and occasionally shot a glance at her and smiled sheepishly.

"What's the matter Bella, too much sex this last week?"

She arched an eyebrow at my obviously ridiculous question. "Pfft, like that could happen. Besides, I heard Emmett and Rosalie were kicked out for a decade due to their more amorous activities resulting in broken furniture and demolished buildings."

I burst out laughing. "Good to know I haven't exhausted you or scared you off," I then snickered as we pulled into the parking lot for our cabin apartments and I quickly came to a stop in front of our abode. "And yes, Esme kicked them out right after Emmett's newborn year, when they were able to consummate properly. She had to restore five rooms, a garage and countless amounts of furniture…not to mention all the bleach to clean the surfaces after they used them."

Bella shuddered at the image, it was one I didn't favor either. She then bit her bottom lip and chuckled quietly, most likely trying to keep it hidden but I noticed it and stared at her quizzically. She tilted her head upward and tried to act casual as she answered my questioning gaze. "I was going to say you have to keep up with me but if you think about it, you've gone longer without sex then I have. I'm only fifty eight…you were a hundred and nine year old virgin when we met."

My jaw dropped involuntarily to my chest at her stunning words and she hastily exited the Volvo then walked casually to the front door, carrying one of the duffels with our clothes. I silently exited the car and closed the door then shoved her up against the front door, my upper torso pressing into her back, pinning her between the door and my growing erection while my hands roamed over her hips.

"I may be twice your age but that also means I have twice the pent up sexual frustration. And hearing the sexual thoughts of every teenager within a three mile radius and my own family's doesn't help," I could hear how husky my own voice was and I deliberately oozed out the sexy as I spoke into her ear. "I haven't heard you complain about my cravings for you," I tugged on her ear with my lips and her knees nearly buckled.

I heard a click then the door gave way beneath me and Bella darted inside, leaving me dumbfounded on the doorstep. I entered our home and closed the door behind me then stalked through the house in search of my wife. I found her in the laundry room, finishing up loading the washing machine with our clothes from camping.

As if possessed, I slammed my body into hers, pinning her against the machine just as her hand pushed the start button. The machine started to fill with water and I flipped Bella around and pressed my erection into her stomach. Bella gasped at the pressure from being pressed firmly between the washer and my stiffness. My lips sought out her neck and my mouth started to lavish attention on her delicious skin.

Bella gasped and started breathing heavily as my lips ventured over every inch of her exposed skin and my fingers worked on her shirt and jeans exposing more. It was surprisingly easy to lift Bella on to the washer and rid her of her pants at the same time and thank goodness for that or we could have ended up as a bumbling mess on the floor. My lips left Bella's neck and took control of her waiting lips. While our lips were locked and fighting for control, I felt her fingers manipulating the button fly of my pants, she then using her feet and toes she pushed my pants down to my ankles.

"No boxers?" She asked with a raised eyebrow and a small curl to her lips.

I shrugged casually. "I knew they would be coming off soon anyways so I figured I would shorten the process." Bella shrugged as well then pulled my face down to hers so she could kiss me into oblivion.

The washing machine started the agitate cycle just as I pushed my way inside of Bella's exceedingly comfortable folds. The added sensation from the machine heightened our nerve endings and within a minute Bella was having her first orgasm. Personally, I wanted to prolong my own explosion and I bit the inside of my cheek as I attempted to focus on staving off my orgasm. A minute later, Bella screamed through another orgasm and clung to me like a life preserver.

I was thoroughly pleased with myself. During just the agitate cycle, I had managed to give my wife seven orgasms while thwarting my own. Then came the spin cycle, as soon as it started I knew I wouldn't last. I thrust in to Bella as if my life depended on her getting one more orgasm before I lost it. I think the spin cycle created more friction than the agitate cycle but either way, this was magnificent.

Bella stopped breathing and I could tell she was getting close again and this orgasm was going to break a record of some kind. Her heels dug into my buttocks and she pulled me closer, then, I lost it. I grunted and groaned at the massive force of my semen shooting out of me and into her as she grunted and groaned as well.

She looked at me with droopy eyes and smiled sheepishly. I returned her smile and rested my forehead against hers as I panted heavily. "We…are so…doing that…again…" she nodded her head in agreement and giggled.

"When do you want me to wash laundry next?" she asked not so innocently.

"How does yesterday sound to you?" I asked with a cocky grin and her only answer was another giggle. God I love hearing her giggle, she doesn't do that very often…and I intend to make her giggle as much as possible.

Chapter End Notes:

So what do you think of the added camping fun, give anybody ideas for the summer? How about their game of paint ball? I've never played so I hope it was close to the real thing...but of course when vampires are involved how can it be real. Was Bella's revenge on Alice too much, too little or just right?
