Ch 28

BPOV

As dusk crept across the sky, people clambered onto Marcus' deck and roof to watch the fireworks that would be shot off a mile down river. Edward and I were cuddled up on a blanket at the highest point of the roof. I listened as Edward told me about all the fireworks he watched from this exact spot and I felt honored that he shared his tradition with me.

In return I told him how my dad would take me to see the fireworks from high above Seattle Harbor. His friend worked at the Space Needle so we'd watch from the control room. Having such an up close and personal view never ceased to delight me.

Our mutual sharing was interrupted by the scream of the first rocket and in awe I watched as it burst in a shower of brilliant gold. II gazed at the sky in silence as it was lit with vibrant colors. The appreciative awe I felt watching fireworks was ever present. The colors always captivated me, but it was the atmosphere of innocence that fireworks brought out that I enjoyed. Everyone was able to tap into that childlike wonder when watching fireworks paint the sky. I clapped when I saw one I really liked and smiled when Edward joined my cheering.

When the last thunderous sounds of the grand finale echoed across the sky and the applause of the people in the yard died down, the party slowly started to break up. But Edward and I stayed on the roof wrapped up in each other's arms. The silence hung between us, but neither one of us felt the need to break it.

Ever so slowly, I felt his lips make a lazy trail from my shoulder to my jaw and up to behind my ear then back again in the opposite direction. I arched my neck in an automatic response, shivers rolled down my spine.

"That feels so good, Edward," I couldn't help but moan.

"You smell even better," he whispered hotly against my ear.

It was instinct or some wanton impulse, but I spun in his arms and kissed him hard and deep. We were a mad mix of lips, tongues, and teeth. A low growl rumbled in Edward's chest and I felt it vibrate down to my clit. At that moment my only thought was to get naked and ride him hard. Fortunately, common sense pervaded when we started to wobble and Edward pulled away from my lips to keep us from falling off the roof.

"Care to take this inside?" he asked. It wasn't hard to miss the hint of uncertainty in his words. I cupped his face, my thumbs rubbing the apple of his flushed cheeks. He nuzzled into my touch and my heart leaped at his show of vulnerability.

"I want nothing more," I murmured.

In a flash we made our way carefully off the roof and onto the upper deck of the house. Like high school kids worried about being caught, we tip-toed our way down to the basement and crept quietly into Edward's room. When the door closed, he pulled me close and picked up where we left off.

This time, our kisses were soft, slow, and gentle as we worked to remove our clothes. His hands caressed my skin as if I was a fragile treasure and my fingers explored the hard planes of his chest. I loved the way he hissed as I flicked his nipples on my way to his narrow hips.

"God, you're so beautiful, Bella," he told me when he pulled off my panties. On his knees he looked up at me through hooded eyes. Telegraphing his every move with said eyes, I watched as he drew closer to my center, his wet, pink tongue poked out and grazed my clit.

"Oh, Edward," I breathed.

My eyes closed, the sensations too much for me to bear. His hands grasped my ass and held me steady as he dived in and licked me with reckless abandon. My hands found purchase in his hair as I held onto him for dear life. My hips rocked and thrust with every motion of his tongue. I could hear him lapping up my wetness and when he pulled away, I forced open my eyes to see his lips and chin coated in my juices.

With a need I wasn't sure I understood, I feel to my knees and tasted myself on his lips. My tangy essence exploded on my tongue and I sought out even more from his mouth. As we kissed, Edward maneuvered us to the bed and when I found myself on top, I didn't hesitate to straddle him and slide down onto his hard cock.

Our mutual groans filled the room as I seated him deep within my slick heat. He cupped my breasts and began to tweak and pinch my nipples as I moved over him. We found a rhythm easily, a steady movement of up and down, then a swivel from side to side. My body felt tight and feverish and I knew that soon I'd be consumed by the fire building between us.

Edward's hands were everywhere, on my breasts, kneading them almost to distraction, then on my hips as he helped me impale myself down onto him over and over. When he pulled me down for a kiss, I felt his hips beneath me thrust up harder. The new angle was just the change I needed to drive me closer to completion. Our panting breaths mingled as we worked in tandem at a dizzying pace. His neck strained with the effort to keep a steady tempo while sweat rolled down my back as we chased our orgasm.

When the spiral in my belly finally exploded, I clenched hard around him and his hissing curse told me it was just what he needed. I felt his cock swell as my pussy pulsed and in a rush our juices mixed and leaked out of me marking us both. With a few last erratic pumps of his hips, our orgasms ebbed and we were left in a hazy afterglow. I snuggled into his warm, sweaty embrace as I waited for my body to regain its bearings.

Edward pulled me close and kissed my hair. "Thank you," he sighed. His hands stroked up and down my back as my body grew limp and content. As my eyes closed, drifting toward slumber, my heart whispered the dangerous desire to never leave his arms.
