First Weeks in Forks
Seth's POV
Today is Marissa's first day working at the hospital so I finally have time to do what I have been meaning to do ever since we got here- talk to Edward.
I walk out of the house and drive to the Cullen's house in my Forest Green Wrangler Jeep, even though it's like two minutes away.
I walk to the front door and just walk in because it's not like they didn't hear me coming. Edward is standing by the front door, "So what is it you want to talk to me about?"
"Okay so as you know, Marissa's birthday is coming up and the other day I asked her what she wanted but-" he cut me off.
"You want to know what she was thinking about when you asked her." He said matter-of-factly.
"Yes, will you tell me?"
"I'll tell you. That Marissa of yours has some pretty big dreams, are you prepared to spend that kind of money?" He asks.
"Well what do you mean? What could she possibly want?"
"When you asked her 'what have you wanted your entire life but could never get' something popped into her head so quickly, she must think about it all the time so she really wants to do it. Are you sure you want to know?"
"Yes, tell me!"
"She wants to go on a cruise that goes all over Europe." He said and stared at me with a look that said 'I told you, you didn't want to know'.
"Wow, that sounds awesome. I've never been to Europe before, I'm so glad she picked that." He stared at me with astonishment.
"You're happy?"
"Yeah, I mean yeah it's going to be expensive but whatever it's what Marissa really wants and I have to give her everything she wants."
"Okay, do you want to go look up trips? I can help you book it."
"Sure." He led me into the office and he sat in the desk and went on the computer while I sat across from him and waited.
After about a half an hour he talks, "Okay so I narrowed it down to about three different trips. Italy, and England are the most popular places to travel to but I also recommend France and Germany." He turns the computer to face me, "Here are the three I think you will like."
They were all Royal Caribbean ships because according to Edward, "that was the only way to go". The first one he showed me was the 12 Night Mediterranean Greek Isles that visited Barcelona, Spain; Monte Carlo, France; Florence, Italy; Rome, Italy; Ephesus, Turkey; Athens, Greece; Santorini, Greece; Naples, Italy; and Barcelona, Spain. This one sounded perfect but then he showed me another one and I thought that one was perfect too. It was a 14 Night Western Mediterranean Cruise that went to Southampton, England; Malaga, Spain; Monte Carlo, France; Barcelona, Spain; Palma De Mallorca, Spain; Valencia, Spain; Cartagena, Spain; Lisbon, Portugal; Vigo, Spain; and Southampton, England. And the last one was a 10 Night British Isles Cruise which went to Copenhagen, Denmark; Oslo, Norway; Inverness / Loch Ness, Scotland; Greenock (Glasgow), Scotland; Dublin, Ireland; Cork, Ireland; Cherbourg, France; Southampton, England.
This decision was so hard I don't know what to do so I decide to wait on it and think about it later.
I thank Edward for his help and go back home feeling unsettled.
The minute I walk in the door I have no time to think because Jacob comes storming in with the new wolf he was having trouble with when him and Nessie visited in the Hamptons, Sebastian.
This is the first time I have met him in person, but in my head he seems like a good kid with all the odds stacked against him. His dad left him and his mom a while ago and they don't have a lot of money. He got kicked out of his last school so his mom thought it would be a good idea to have him move away for a little while. She couldn't just leave her job though so he is living with his Aunt now that lives here in Forks. He skips school and doesn't try to be better. Jacob has tried to make him do better in school so that he can have a future but he isn't cooperating very well.
"He got suspended today for misbehaving in class." Jacob tells me while dragging him in the house.
"I only pointed out that my teacher had something on his head and I pulled his toupee off."
"I didn't know had a toupee." I say and think back to the dreadful days of high school.
"Look it was no big deal, it's only three days." Sebastian says.
"Yes, it is a big deal. It goes on your permanent record and this isn't the first time you've been suspended."
"Who cares, I'm not going to some fancy shmancy college anyway." He says and takes an apple from the table and starts eating it.
"I care, and not with your grades you aren't." Jake says. "From now on you are going to do better in school."
"Yeah like that's going to happen, I'm stupid."
He opens his mouth to take another bite from my apple but I grab it from him before he could bite it.
"I think I can find you a tutor, and for free." I say, I hope she doesn't get mad at me for volunteering her like this, but if anyone can turn this kid around and work a miracle it would be Marissa.
"Who?" He looks at me.
"Yeah Seth, who?" Jake says astonished too.
"Marissa."
Marissa's POV
I drive home after the first day of work and all I know is A) I'm hungry, and B) That was one hell of a day. Working at a hospital is a lot harder than it looks. I wasn't really doing any hands on things yet, just following Carlisle around. But that helped a lot because he is the best and he had a lot of patients too.
There wasn't a minute where I could rest though, and I also smell like that gross hospital smell too, I hope Seth doesn't notice.
After walking through the front door I make a beeline to the fridge, find some leftovers and put them in the microwave, and plop on the couch with my dish.
Well the second I sit down Seth walks in from the backdoor and when he sees me he lights up, "How was your day!" he said and sat down next to me while I stuffed my face; I would be embarrassed about that but at the moment I was too focused on getting the mac and cheese in my mouth.
"Good." I manage to say in between bites.
When he notices how hungry I am and how I'm not going to pay any attention to him whatsoever until I finished every last bite he sat back and watched me eat.
After I finished, I set the plate on the coffee table and laid back on the couch and let out a sigh.
"So I take it it was a busy day?" he asks
I nod my head up and down, "Mhm."
He grabs my hand, "Come on." And he pulls me up and off the couch.
"Why, where are we going?" I say and follow him reluctantly.
"Just trust me."
"Wait let me just change out of these gross scrubs."
We end up going in the car for about a ten-minute drive and all of a sudden Seth stops and gets out of the car.
"What are we doing?" Now I was curious.
He didn't answer he just took my hand and I followed. I like surprises.
Suddenly I hear yelling and then I see about four tan muscular boys standing next to a cliff with no shirts on.
I was about to say hi to all of them but all of a sudden one, I think Collin, jumps off the side of the cliff.
I inhale sharply and my hands automatically go to my mouth. I run to the very edge of the cliff and look over to see the boy, I was right it is Collin, in the water laughing.
I turn around and there is Seth, no shirt, looking at me with a no it all smile on his face. "Your face just then was the funniest thing. What did you think was going to happen when you saw them all standing next to a cliff with no shirts on?"
Now I looked stupid, "I don't know, it didn't register in my mind."
He laughs again and I can't help but crack a shy smile but I can feel my face get red.
"Come on." He says and grabs my hand again. I don't say anything but when he starts walking I don't move and his arm gets pulled back. "Are you coming?"
"I'm scared." I say in a small voice with my head down, conscious of all the boys looking at me expectantly. PEER PRESSURE!
Now that I have look at all of them I can see who is actually here, its Collin, Brady, Embry, and Quil.
Seth walks back over to me and puts his arm around me to walk me away from the crowd. When we are out of earshot-not really because they have superhuman hearing- Seth turns around and puts his hands on my shoulders. "Look I know you're scared, but it's really fun and exhilarating. I thought it would be fun since you had such a stressful first day of work." I guess that makes sense, I am still scared though. "I will hold your hand the whole way down." He says sort of whining.
If he really wants me to go with him that bad I guess I can do that for him, and who knows, maybe I will have fun? "Fine, but I don't have a bathing suit." I look down at my outfit to see that I am wearing old jean shorts with a lot of wholes in them and a maroon v-neck t-shirt.
"That will be fine." Seth says looking at what I am wearing. Without anymore said he takes my hand and pulls me to the edge, the whole time the guys are chanting "Marissa, Marissa" over and over again. I notice quickly that Collin has magically rejoined them.
Seth looks at me, "Ready?" he says with a wicked grin.
I take one deep breath, "As I'll ever be."
And we count down together, "One, two three." And we jump together and I don't know what happened after that because I closed my eyes but like two seconds later we hit the water. I can still feel that dropping sensation in my stomach but I have to admit, that was a hell of a rush.
I resurface and I am flailing my arms and gasping for air for some reason even though I'm not drowning in the slightest bit.
I feel someone swim over to me and he grabs me by the waist, "Are you okay?" It's Seth. He sounds alarmed so I immediately stop doing whatever it was that I was doing with my arms.
"Yeah." I say still out of breathe from the adrenaline rush of the drop.
I wrap my legs around his waist, "That was fun." I say with a reassuring smile.
Immediately the worry on his face is replaced my joy, "I knew you would like it." And he presses his palms on my back and pushes me closer to him so our chests are touching.
I put my hand on his big arms and he leans in for a kiss and just when I close my eyes I hear from above, "Hey, keep it PG. We have kids up here." Said by whom I assume to Embry which is followed by laughter and I untangle my legs from his waist, instead I tread water.
I look back to Seth and see that he looks really stiff but when I ask him what's wrong he starts swimming towards the grass so I follow.
I follow him all the way back up the cliff but I can't catch up to him because he is walking so fast, damn those wolf genes.
When I finally get back to the top I am sweaty, my wet clothes are sticking to me, and out of breathe. I look towards the group of guys but Seth isn't with them.
I walk over, "Hey guys, where did Seth go?"
Quil answers, "He's in his car."
"Did he say anything to you guys, like why we are leaving already?"
This time Brady answers, "No, he didn't say anything. He seems pretty pissed about something."
"Did I do something wrong? Did I jump off wrong?"
Collin smiles, "No, you didn't jump off wrong. I'm sure everything's fine, we will see you later."
I say goodbye to them and when I start walking over to the car I notice that it is already running.
Immediately after I shut the door Seth takes off really fast down the road and we get to the house in about a record time of 30 seconds.
When we stop he goes to open the door but I climb over him and shut it. "What is your problem?" I ask still hovering over him with my hand on the door so I make sure he doesn't leave.
He is breathing really heavy, "Marissa, I need you to get off of me." He says through gritted teeth although he doesn't say it mean or like he is mad it me. It's like he is pain and is trying not to show it.
I let go of the door and sit on his lap instead, "Why? What's wrong, one minute we were laughing and almost kissing and the next minute you were waiting for me in the car and going 200 miles an hour down the street."
"Yeah that was the problem." He says less harsh, "It was all hot and heavy with you one minute, the way you looked with those clothes clinging to your perfect curves, and the next minute I heard laughter from four immature little douches. I forgot that we weren't alone." He explains and then I notice his hardness pushing into me and I realize what happened.
"Oohh." I say and then I put my arms around his neck and put my forehead on his, "Well if you stop being such a cranky puss, maybe I will let you peel my wet clothes off of me."
His eyebrows shut up and his lips curved into a smile, "Sounds good to me." And he opened his car door and grabbed underneath me and carried me to the front door.
As he was fishing out his house keys with one hand and holding me with the other I said, "Having a boyfriend with super strength has it's perks."
He laughed and opened the door and suddenly the atmosphere around us changed and we both stopped laughing.
He kicked the door shut behind him and I put my legs around his waist right before he slammed me into the nearest wall so hard I think I put a dent in it.
His lips were hot when they savaged mine and he put his hands in my shirt and pulled it up over my head and threw it somewhere. Our lips were immediately back together and I decided to try something new so I lightly bit his bottom lip.
Seth's eyes shoot open and he says something, or more like growls, that makes my lower stomach tickle. He says, "Oh, you shouldn't have done that." And with a devilish smile he carries me upstairs and throws me on the bed.
He immediately bites my lip the same way I did to him and then he is sucking on my neck in the spot he knows effects me. Even though I am soaking wet from the water, I can feel my wetness between my legs and I think he can smell it because I feel him smile on my neck and then moves down towards my bra.
He unhooks the back and throws that somewhere and then he is on my nipples. He is sucking one and tantalizing the other one with his fingers. My back arched automatically and I hear myself moaning and my fingers are buried in his hair.
Just when I was at my climax he pulls away and I lay there panting. His hands go to my shorts, I forgot those were still on, and he unzips them and pulls them, and my panties, off in one swift motion.
I feel hit wet clothes as he slides down me and he takes his hands and pushes my legs far apart. I immediately feel embarrassed as he is staring right at it and my legs try to jerk closed again but Seth's arms are too strong and hold them back, "Don't be embarrassed." He says as if he was reading my thoughts.
I relax a little under his touch and I feel his finger down there and my legs immediately try to close again. "Stop it." Was all he said and I won't let my legs close again because I'm a little scared of what he will do to me if I do.
His fingers slowly go down there again, "Oh you're so wet for me. You're so ready." And then his fingers enter me, slowly at first, and then he adds another finger and goes faster.
Then all of a sudden his fingers are replaced with his tongue and I scream his name it feels so good.
I don't even think it was a minute before I reach Heaven, say hi to Jesus, and then come back down to Earth. I am greeted with Seth lying next to me with his head resting on his chin looking at me with a look of satisfaction on his face.
He pulls a few strands of hair out of my face, "Uhm, hate to burst your bubble but if you haven't noticed I have a pretty big tent in my pants that could use some fixing up."
I laugh at his horrible attempt to start up again but I reach over and start taking off his shirt.
If this is how I am going to be greeted every night after a long day of work, I think I am going to have to drink a lot more coffee in the morning.
Okay so in the beginning of the chapter Seth has some traveling help from Edward. I was hoping you guys would help Seth make a decision and pick one of those cruises to go on.
Just review and vote for which one you want Seth to take Marissa on for her birthday!
