Chapter 26 – Chicago My Kind of Town

BPOV – December 1, 2009

I was finally in Edward's arms, and I didn't waste any time questioning why. I found myself staring at him, hoping he wasn't a mirage and I clung to him. We made love the moment we entered the hotel room. It was just before dawn and we kept the curtains open so we could welcome the sunlight as it began to brighten our room. Edward handed me the bottle water I asked for then he knelt on the floor beside the bed. "What are you doing silly?" I asked because he looked ridiculous kneeling naked on the floor.

"I love you so much." Edward said to me. I struggled to sit up so I could see him better because he had a weird look on his face, so something must be troubling him.

"I love you too." I was confused as he reached out and held my hand tightly.

"Bella I hope that you allow me to give you a lifetime of 'for better' because you already dealt with the 'for worst'. Will you marry me?" I looked down and Edward was holding my engagement ring in his other hand offering it back to me.

"Yes, I will marry you!" My heart leapt out of my chest as I sprang up on the bed and allowed Edward to slip the ring back on my finger. I wrapped my arms around his neck, nearly strangling him.

Edward crawled over me and slid back under the warm blankets and I covered his handsome face with kisses and giggles.

"As always, you made me the happiest man on the planet." Edward laughed at my antics and pulled me into a hug.

"I never wanted to leave you, I only gave you back your ring because you didn't remember giving it to me," I twisted the ring around my finger happy that it was back on my hand. "I didn't think it was fair to hold you to a promise you couldn't remember making."

"I didn't give you much reason to keep it after I denied that I still had feelings for you," Edward paused a moment. "It wasn't my finest moment."

"None of it was your fault. That accident was devastating and we're all blessed you survived." I ran my hand along his cheek, happy to see Edward completely healed as I pushed back the images that had flashed across my mind of him in the coma struggling for his life.

"You were so patient with me and so loving," Edward kissed my head. "I knew I felt something for you, but I didn't know how to process my emotions. I was competing with myself…"

"Shh…there's no reason to worry about that now." I rested my head on Edward's chest as his arm curled over me, we were finally safely back together and with the grace of God we would be for a very long time.

"It's going to be forever for us from now on," Edward quietly sighed and closed his eyes. "I never want to give you a reason for you to take your ring off again." Both of us were exhausted from being awake all night and we quietly fell asleep clinging to each other.

I slept deep and hard, and the next thing I knew it was past noon when I woke up to the room full of sunshine. Edward was still asleep and I didn't want to disturb him from the peace he was experiencing. I reached for my phone and sent Charlie a text that I would be home soon. Luckily, Charlie had planned to remain home that morning so there was no pressure for me to get the car back. He expected that Edward and I would need time to be alone, and if I didn't come home after the airport he wouldn't have gotten worried.

I slowly left our cozy warm bed so that I could get into the bathroom and freshen up. I tiptoed across the carpet and quietly shut myself behind the bathroom door. I was surprised when I looked into the mirror that I didn't look so bad, and I splashed some water on my face, pulled Edward's hairbrush through my tangled hair and placed some toothpaste on my finger to sweeten up my mouth. I crawled back into bed with my back against the headboard and stared down at Edward while he continued to sleep peacefully. His golden eyelashes fluttered on his cheeks while he dreamt. I lightly touched his hair and I said a silent prayer thanking God for sparing his life and bringing him back to me.

Edward stirred and moaned slightly. I kissed the tip of his nose trying not to wake him, loving him more than life itself.

"Bella?" Edward called for me before his eyes opened.

"I'm right here," I slipped down deeper under the blankets so I could be closer to him and felt the touch of his naked body against mine. "Good morning."

"Mmm…it wasn't a dream." Edward looked up at me with a sleepy smile on his face.

"No…it was all real." I wiggled myself up next to his warm smooth skin, and moved my hands to cradle his face, pulling his lips close to kiss him deeply, softly, and sensuously.

"I need you more than sleep, and I want you." His voice was soft and seductive in my ear.

Edward's mouth pressed to mine once again, his tongue pressing softly between my lips to enter my mouth, flickering at the tip of my tongue. I lost myself in the sensation of a long time love coming back alive, and we melted into one another, arms and legs entwining, and heat building.

Edward moved up to cover my body with his once again, and I felt the extent of his excitement for me. I loved his morning hard-on pressing against my thigh. My kisses strayed down his neck and across his chest, my tongue trailing along to enjoy the flavor of Edward's skin as I moved my lips up to taste his lips again. My hand slipped down along his chest, stopping to tweak his sensitive nipples. His eyes closed in pleasure, and his small moan letting me know how he loved it. My arms slipped beneath his, my hands coming to rest on his strong shoulders. I raised my mouth to his ear and whispered to him, so soft and so low that he had to strain to hear me. "Take me, Edward. Fuck me hard. Fuck me like there's no tomorrow." I felt his cock jerk against me as the words left my mouth.

"Oh my God, Bella. Yes." Edward's words came out as something between a moan and a whisper as he plunged his throbbing cock deeply into me. His strokes were hard and deep, and with each trust it took me to a higher level of lust. We knew each other so intimately that the smooth, fluid movements were like a practiced dance, each knowing the other so intimately. We knew where to touch, how to move, what to do to drive each other crazy. My nails raked down his back. Edward gasped as the sensation took him to a higher level of pleasure. His warm mouth found and enjoyed my breast, circling my nipple with the tip of his tongue, nibbling with his teeth. I tried to raise myself toward him, to press deeper into his mouth, but Edward held me down, preferring instead to keep me controlled in his passionate torture.

"I'm close, Bella, so close," Edward whispered. His face strained and his back arched as he tried to hold back.

I smiled, and my voice shook as I spoke. "Come for me, Edward." My hands gripped his waist and my nails dug into him as his orgasm took him hard. I pressed up, taking him into me again, continuing the rolling strokes of my hips, pushing him to total release until his body trembled and Edward begged me to stop.

With all of his strength gone, Edward collapsed beside me. His arms held me next to him and my head lay softly on his chest once again. Our breath slowly returned to normal and our heartbeats ended their race as we relaxed together.

"I never want to be apart from you again. I love you so much." I said while I clung to him and we whispered words of love with promises of forever both spoken and silent.

"All I want to do is make love to you all day long and never leave this room…is that too much for me to ask?'' Edward joked after he had a chance to recover.

"I wish that was possible, but Charlie would miss us." I came to Chicago to visit my dad and he had taken time off from the police station to be with me, I couldn't just abandon him.

"You're right, I'm interrupting your visit with him." Edward nuzzled my neck.

"Charlie doesn't get to see me much since I moved away. It's only a few more days." I felt a little guilty.

"I'm not complaining, Charlie's a great guy, I like him and it'll be nice to see him again." Edward pushed the hair from my face as a reason to touch me.

"He likes you too, he was so excited to hear your memory came back." My dad loved Edward and had never given up hope that he would come back to me.

"We need to order something to eat…aren't you starving?" Edward asked me as he searched for the room service menu.

"Just order some coffee and orange juice from room service then lets go out and find some place to get pancakes." It was too late in the day to order breakfast from room service and I knew Edward would enjoy a stack of pancakes.

Edward smiled at the thought of pancakes and he kissed me once again. "I love you so much."

"I love you too," I rubbed his chin with my cheek so I could feel his soft whiskers. "We should call Charlie and make plans for dinner."

"Definitely, you know they have a Grill on the Alley here, do you think Charlie would like that?" Edward's random memory was surprising me. He must have done some research online before he came here.

"Sounds lovely," Charlie would be so happy to see Edward again. I then remembered that I hadn't packed anything appropriate for an evening out. "I need to get something to wear, all I packed with me are casual clothes."

"Call Charlie and tell him about our plans," Edward was eager to spoil me again. "After breakfast we can find a mall for to get you something wonderful to wear."

"Okay," I grabbed my phone. "You call room service and I will take care of my dad."

Edward reached over for the hotel phone and spoke to the operator. "Can you please send up a fresh pot of coffee and a large glass of orange juice to room 1825? Thank you." Edward hung up and grinned at me.

"Did you pack your suit?" I asked him.

"I knew we would be celebrating." Edward smirked at me with confidence.

Charlie was happy I called and accepted our invitation to dinner. I explained to him that it would be several hours before I would be home because we would be making stops for breakfast and for me to shop for a dress. "No need to rush Bella honey, I'm enjoying a quite afternoon home." Charlie replied.

"Okay Dad, we'll see you soon." I smiled as I hung up the phone, looking forward to spending an evening with the two most important men in my life.

EPOV

Making love to Bella again was completely mind-blowing. I hadn't forgotten about the passion I had always felt for her, but I wished it were possible to stay in bed for the remainder of our lives together because it was so perfect. We made plans to take Charlie out for dinner and Bella needed to get something to wear.

I made a reservation at the restaurant for 7 o'clock and called down to the front desk to make sure the limousine that Rose reserved for me would be available to pick us up so that Charlie could have his car back. I placed the bottle of champagne in the mini-fridge so that it would be chilled for us tonight.

After we quickly showered and dressed, Bella made us stop at Water Tower Place to purchase a dress, which she managed to do quickly because she had looked online while I was in the shower. I brought my suit along with me so I could change for dinner at Charlie's house. We found a Golden Nugget Pancake House on our way and I inhaled a huge plate of pancakes while Bella watched in amazement.

"I see you still have your new-found appetite." Bella commented sweetly between sips of coffee.

"I'm famished." I tried to explain as I placed another bite of pancakes in my mouth.

"I like watching you eat." Bella smiled at as she rested her head in her hands with her elbows on the table.

"I know we haven't had a chance to talk about this, but we need to start making plans to get you back to Seattle. Since we have a few weeks before Christmas why don't we fly to Los Angeles, rent a U-haul and pack you up once and for all." A huge smile washed over Bella's face.

"That sounds like a plan," Bella didn't hesitate to agree. "I don't have much."

"I know you have a fantastic record collection." I joked and at the same time wanted her to know I remembered that wonderful afternoon we spent together making love while playing some of the classics.

"So that's the whole reason you love me." Bella laughed.

"No, actually it's for your cooking." I lifted my napkin and wiped my face to hide my grin.

"You're adorable." Bella giggled as she reached across the table and took a bite from a piece of bacon on my plate.

OoOoO

Bella drove west out of the city and pulled up in front of a quaint ranch-style house with white vinyl siding and a small iron fenced-in front lawn. It was dwarfed by the multi-storied homes on either side of it and I found myself nervous meeting Bella's father again. I sucked in a deep breath of air and grabbed my suit that was hanging in the backseat before I reached for the car door handle. Bella was already at the top of the porch waiting for me to join her.

"Dad, look who's here," Bella shouted out as we entered the house.

Charlie was already dressed for our dinner as he entered the living room to greet us, "You gave as quite a scare son," Charlie firmly shook my hand. "Good to see you again."

"Thank you sir." I was feeling a little anxious.

"I'm going to go get ready," Bella announced. "I will try not to take long." She quickly disappeared down the hallway.

I stood nervously in the center of the room.

"Cut the sir, I told you that you could call me Charlie." The corner of his mouth slightly turned upward. "Sit down and relax. Do you want a beer?"

"That would be great." I sat down on the sofa and looked around the room and saw Bella's high school senior portrait hanging on the wall. There were a few feminine touches remaining from the days Bella had lived here, but the main focus of the room was the flat screen television.

Charlie re-entered the room, handed me a bottle of beer and sat in the oversized chair that was definitely his. "So tell me, your memory just all came back to you the other day?"

"The doctor seemed to think that my brain connections gradually healed, causing my memories to return." I sipped my beer not knowing if I should tell Charlie that it was the memories of Bella that came to me first.

"I know that it was rough on everyone while you were struggling with your recovery," Charlie kept his comments vague. "Bella's strength was impressive."

It stung being reminded about the pain I put Bella through. "Charlie I want to reassure you that I won't break Bella's heart again."

"Son, there's no reason to feel badly about all you have been through …I always knew you loved my daughter and would eventually come back to her." Charlie reached from his chair and placed his hand firmly on my shoulder.

"She accepted my ring and the promise that I made to you before still stands, I will take care of her."

"I believe you will Edward." I was grateful that Charlie hadn't lost faith in me.

"Thank you Charlie, it means a lot to me."

"You should get into your suit," Charlie changed the subject. "You can dress in my room, it's the second door on your right."

I walked down the hall and entered Charlie's room to change my clothes. I carefully folded up my t-shirt and jeans so that Bella could fit them into her suitcase. I hoped that Charlie wouldn't mind that she would be spending her nights with me. I glanced at myself in the dresser mirror and in the reflection I saw that Charlie had an acoustic guitar leaning in the opposite corner of the room. It was a Gibson J45, 1967 vintage model and I was very impressed and maybe the next time we hung out, I could talk him into pulling it out. I was looking forward to having Charlie as my father-in-law.

I stepped back into the living room and joined Charlie in front of the television while we both waited for Bella to get ready. Just as I sat down, Bella made her way down the hallway, and she was breathtakingly beautiful in a dark blue long-sleeved cashmere scoop neck dress. The knit clung to her figure, which created an hourglass silhouette, with her legs covered in dark stockings. She had her hair pulled back tightly into a ponytail displaying her exquisite face.

"Wow honey, you look wonderful." I stepped up and kissed her blushing cheek.

"Thank you, you both are handsome too." Bella said. "Edward, you can put your jeans in my luggage and then would you please help me get my bags to the car?"

"Sure." I picked up my clothes and took them to the room that Bella had just come out of. It was like a time capsule and for a moment I looked around the room that Bella grew up in. It was a side of her that I hadn't gotten to know much about…her childhood. Posters of rock bands lined the walls, and the small desk in the corner had stacks of books and CDs. I wished I had time to take a closer look, but she was waiting for me so I placed my things in the luggage, zipped it shut and carried them out to the living room.

We put on our coats and headed out to the car. It was extremely cold and I was glad that I had a coat that was warm enough. Bella sat in the back seat with me as Charlie drove us to our destination. We held hands and out of respect for Charlie I refrained from more than that. It didn't take long to find the restaurant and I insisted that Charlie use the valet. We walked into the restaurant together and as I approached the hostess station the woman recognized me.

"Edward Pattinson?" The hostess asked me before I told her my name.

"Yes, I have a reservation for three at 7 o'clock." Trying to ignore her recognition of me.

"I will be happy to seat you." The hostess smiled and led us to our table. A few heads turned as we walked through the room. Bella held on tightly to my hand and Charlie didn't seem to notice the attention we had gotten. We were seated in a private booth at the back of the room and I was grateful.

Similar to the Los Angeles restaurant the place was warm and masculine with all black leather banquettes and caricature-adorned mahogany walls. The dining room had polished hardwood floors, crisp linen tables and smooth jazz tunes played to make it unique to Chicago. I wanted to impress Charlie and I wasn't disappointed.

"You were on the cover of all the tabloids not too long ago…" Bella started to explain. "I don't think anyone expected to see you here."

"I'm okay with it," I lifted my menu not allowing the attention I received to distract me from my evening. "Charlie I hope you're up for steak tonight."

"Definitely." Charlie replied.

"Should I order wine for the table?" I asked.

"If it's alright with you son, I'll stick with beer." Charlie answered me just as the waiter arrived to take our drink orders.

"Two Heinekens and darling what would you like tonight?" I placed my hand over Bella's as I waited for her reply.

"Ruby Red Lemon Drop Martini." Bella ordered for herself. We both knew we had a bottle of champagne waiting for us at the hotel.

My back was to the room and I had no problem relaxing. This was an upscale restaurant, so I had no worries that we would be disturbed. Bella rubbed my thigh under the table to relay her support. "Charlie this is one of my family's favorite restaurants in Los Angeles and I'd like to recommend the Prime New York steak."

"Edward, I trust that you know what to order, I like my meat rare." Charlie closed the menu and placed it on the top of the table.

"Are you having a steak tonight?" I asked Bella.

"I think I'm going to have the salmon." Bella smiled over the top of her menu at me.

When the waiter returned with the drinks I ordered for the table, Bella selected the Cedar Plank Salmon with a BBQ citrus glaze, Charlie and I got the Prime New York steaks with grilled asparagus, sautéed mushrooms and baked potatoes for our sides.

"What will be the next step for you two?" Charlie asked. "Are you able to get back to the band?"

"I have every intention to rejoin the band, our management should be able to line up a tour for us in the Spring. We just released our new CD and the fans have stuck with us."

"The pre-holiday sales are solid." Bella added.

"After we get Bella completely moved up to Seattle and the holidays are over, I will put myself back into my work a hundred percent."

"How long do you think that will take?" Charlie asked me. He was beginning to make me feel nervous.

"I'm financially secure, so there is no need to worry about my ability to provide a stable life for us." I hoped that Charlie wouldn't worry about my capability of taking care of his daughter.

"I wasn't worrying about that," Charlie took a sip from his beer. "I was wondering when the wedding plans were so I can put in for the time off."

"Really Dad!" Bella scolded Charlie. We all laughed as our dinners were being served in front of us.

We all enjoyed our meals and the conversation came easy between us. Bella told Charlie that she expected him to give her away at our wedding in May and she caught him up with her work.

To end the evening, Bella and I shared a double-chocolate layer cake with raspberry filling while Charlie ordered a cup of coffee.

"Will I be seeing you kids tomorrow?" Charlie asked as I paid the check and sent a text for the limo driver to come and pick us up.

"Of course, I'm planning on making your favorite dinner tomorrow." Bella answered, she loved to take care of her dad and to cook for him.

"I'm looking forward to hanging out with you while we're here." I was even willing to sit and watch football with the man.

"Thank you for an amazing dinner son," Charlie shook my hand as we stepped towards the door. "I will see you guys tomorrow afternoon."

As we said our good-byes, the valet pulled Charlie's car to the front and I pulled Bella's luggage out of the trunk and paid the tip to the valet. I placed the luggage on the curb and helped Bella button her coat just as our limo came around the corner. The chauffeur stepped out, loaded the bags into the trunk, and opened the door so that we could slide into the back seat.

"I think that went well." I stated as I relaxed back into the leather seat.

"My dad loves you," Bella snuggled against me. "Thank you for such a lovely evening."

"You are always welcome." I wrapped my arms around her to help keep us warm as the driver took us back to the hotel. Kissing the top of Bella's head, I smiled to myself at how lucky we actually were.

The driver pulled up to the front of the hotel and as we stepped to the curb he handed me Bella's bags. The winds had picked up and it had gotten colder and we quickly pushed through the glass doors into the warmth of the building.

"Welcome back, do you need help with your bags?" the desk clerk asked as we entered the lobby.

"No thank you, I can manage." Bella wrapped her hand around my elbow and we stepped into the waiting elevator.

I slipped the key into the door and we stepped into our suite. I placed Bella's bags on the racks across the room and took off my coat and jacket. Bella hung up our coats and then she took me by the hand.

"Let me thank you again for such a wonderful night." Bella seductively motioned for me to sit on the edge of the bed. I obeyed as she slowly removed her dress and tossed it on the chair. Bella stood in front of me revealing a garter belt holding up her dark stockings with matching silk panties and bra. Flipping her hair she stepped closer to me and knelt on the floor between my legs.

Bella's delicate fingers pulled at my fly and lowered the zipper of my slacks. I smiled at the way she was asserting herself. The blood quickly rushed to my eager cock and it easily popped out into Bella's awaiting hand. I placed my arms behind me to brace myself as Bella lowered her lips to the sensitive tip.

She took my cock in her mouth and started to slowly suck me. Bella made long slow draws as her hands caressed my balls. I groaned out with pleasure. Bella licked up and down my shaft eagerly enjoying my taste before returning to sucking. I felt my release building and I wasn't ready to come, "Not yet…please." I pleaded for her to stop.

Bella smiled and licked her lips as she pushed my shoulders so that I would lay back. "There's no need for you to beg." She teased and began to unbutton my shirt as I tried to regain my breath.

Bella pushed my shirt open and removed my slacks. After I laid back on the bed Bella straddled my body. I reached up and slipped the straps of the silk bra off her shoulders, then reached around and unhooked it, exposing her breasts and causing her to arch her back to allow me to kiss each nipple. I slipped the tiny piece of fabric of her panties aside and she closed her eyes and savored the feeling as she slid down onto my cock. I took a moment to enjoy the feeling of how we fit together. A whimper broke from my throat as she moved her hips so that her clit rubbed against the base of my shaft.

My fingertips played with the lace bands of Bella's stockings at the top of her thighs as she gazed down at me. "It drives me crazy when you look at me that way." I found myself hissing.

I reached up and pulled the band from Bella's hair allowing the curls to fall over my face.

"I love you so much Edward." Bella whispered as she leaned down and pulled my lower lip into her mouth. My tongue licked across her teeth before tangling deep inside her mouth.

Coming up for air, Bella's hips moved faster and faster while my hands massaged her breasts. Soon she shuddered her way through a climax, contracting and squeezing tightly around my hard cock. I could feel myself throb inside of her as my stomach tensed and I was able to let go. The orgasm was forceful and all the stress in my body was gone.

I remained inside of her, as Bella lay on my chest, calming down after the peak she just reached.

"I think that deserves a toast." I kissed Bella's cheek. I wanted to pop open the bottle of champagne that had been waiting for us.

"In a minute." Bella purred as her body melted onto mine.

I ran my fingertips up and down Bella's smooth, supple back. I felt the strum of her heart beating against mine.

Bella folded her hands one on top of the other across my chest and she placed her chin on them and looked up at me. "Edward?"

"Yes love." I gazed lovingly into her beautiful brown eyes.

"What was it like all those weeks without your memories?" It was the first time Bella and I had talked about the details of my injuries.

"It was extremely frightening, not knowing who I was. It eventually became so lonely because I was alone with not much to think about," I could see the sadness in Bella's eyes as I spoke. I brushed her cheek with the back of my hand to get her to smile. "It was difficult to have people tell me who I was supposed to be and not feeling a connection to anyone or anything…except I felt connected to you."

"Really?"

"My heart leapt the first time I saw you back in the hospital."

"What stopped you from telling me back then?" she asked, furrowing her eyebrows.

"There's a whole list of reasons, but looking back none of them were really any good. At first, I didn't understand the attraction toward you, when I had just met you. Then, I wasn't sure I could be the man that you thought I was."

"Who did you think I thought you were?"

"A rock-star." I laughed.

Bella laughed along with me and wiggled over my body. "What prompted you to kiss me in Forks?"

"Emmett." I admitted.

"I hate to ask for the details about how that came about." Bella rolled onto her back beside me.

"Emmett was extremely helpful throughout this entire ordeal. I owe him big time for being there for me, whether I wanted him there or not. He was the one who pushed me to tell you that I loved you."

"Wow…reminded me to thank him." Bella smiled and kissed my lips lightly. "I waited all day for you to call me."

"You were waiting for me to call you?"

"Rose and Emmett called to tell me about their engagement and Emmett ratted you out."

"What did he tell you?" I was curious as to what Emmett told Bella about my intensions.

"He just asked me to give you a chance," Bella bit her lower lip teasing me. "All he said was that you had something to tell me."

"And you were expecting me to tell you that I loved you?"

"I was hoping you were." Bella smiled.

"What was it like to deal with the 'other" Edward?" I wondered if she thought I was as different as I had felt?

"I never really saw you as being different, you still had your charm and sense of humor. I always believed in time you would get comfortable with me," Bella curled up against me. "I was willing to make new memories with you, but you had a hard time dealing with the loss of yourself."

"My anger outbursts were never about you." I turned towards Bella so I could see her eyes.

"I know, you were frustrated," Bella kissed my shoulder. "I didn't hold it against you, you needed time to decide what you wanted and I was willing to wait."

"I'm glad that I decided to call you when I did. I will admit that I hung up the phone a few times before I finally dialed your number, but once I heard your voice, I knew I wanted to tell you I loved you," I sat up. "Now can I pop the cork on that bottle of champagne Rose bought us?" I was still in the mood to celebrate, and I could see our whole future together.

"Please, I want you to spoil me." Bella giggled as I quickly left the bed and walked naked across the room to get our late night snack. I grabbed the two flute glasses the hotel provided, the champagne bottle, fruit basket, and brought them all back to the bed. I swiftly slipped back underneath the covers, reveling in the feeling of her skin again mine. I popped the cork, filled the glasses and toasted to my love.

We sat there wrapped up in each other, drinking champagne and eating grapes. Once we finished the entire bottle, it took the flute from Bella's hand and placed it on the nightstand. We pulled up the soft, warm blankets tightly around us to keep the winter chill out. As I turned off the light, Bella climbed on top of me, kissing me passionately. We made love one more time before falling asleep that night.
