Chapter thirty seven

"Baby? Where are you?" I called out. Everyone had finally left us after my birthday party – which Alice and Rose hosted. It was a sneaky trick really. Nobody wanted to piss off the pregnant lady and Ali used that to her advantage so I basically agreed to anything she wanted – going back to their respective houses, Edward had disappeared off somewhere leaving me with the mess.

Opening our bedroom door I found the most amazing sight in front of me. Edward. On our bed. Shirtless. In boxers. Candles littering the room and rose petals beneath him.

I have to admit I didn't really notice the rose petals at first. I was too busy concentrating on my fuck hot boyfriend "Baby?" I managed to gasp out as a little bit of drool almost slipped out of my mouth. Not even ashamed of it.

"Do you know how much I love it when you call me that?" he got off the bed walking towards me, Strutting almost, his voice low and hot. The type of voice that just makes my panties melt.

"hmm baby" I moaned as he captured my mouth in his, sucking gently on my bottom lip making me melt into him even more. I had missed this. Ever since getting out of the hospital, he has been so careful around me like I'm made of glass. So I haven't been satisfied recently. And it's driving me up the wall.

"Have they all left?" he whispered in my ear, sending shivers down my spine

"well, I wouldn't think of doing this if somebody else was in the house" my hand travelled down slowly, scratching his abs in the process, to end up cupping his package which was growing nice and hard for me under my touch.

He reclaimed my mouth with his, pushing up both back so I slammed against the wall, my legs automatically wrapping round him so eh was the only thing holding me up."Good. Finally, you are mine Isabella." he attacked my neck with his lips,

"I'm yours Edward. Only yours

"That's right Bella only mine. You belong to me." I moaned out loud. So turned on by this point. My clothes had been ripped from my body, leaving me only in my midnight blue lingerie.

"Oh Bella you will be the death of me"

"well what a happy way to go" suddenly my back left the wall, my legs still wrapped around Edward as he stumbled back towards the bed.

"I have missed these" Edward gasped, letting go of me enough to pull my bra off. Thank god for front clasps. My body started to write underneath him as he sucked a nipple into his mouth. He knew this would drive me crazy.

And with that, I was gone. Everything was gone. The room, my psst. Everything but Edward, his amazing mouth and his hands. Oh I can never forget his hands. Especially those fingers making me see stars. How did I get so lucky.

I was almost at the brink, his fingers pumping in and out of me, his thumb slowly working my clit and his mouth still attached to my tit. Triple stimulation. Almost enough to push a girl over the edge.

"cum for me Bella" he whispered, letting my tit drop "scream my name out. Oh I have missed your cute little pussy"

"Ed...Edward" I gasped out

"That's it baby, say my name"

"Edward – need – you – Inside – NOW"

and with that, the flimsy material was ripped form my body, as his long pulsing cock thrust into me "EDWARD" I screamed as I came, pulsing around him. Stopping for a minute to let it subside, he started up again, hitting all the right spots in my body making every build up again.

Heaven

I woke up early the next morning as everything came crashing down around me. Charlie had cancelled on me, well on Emmett. He wasn't coming down. And when I tried to call him, he wouldn't answer. I guess it was happening all over again, I was getting blamed for not being Charlie's daughter.

The fact we didn't even know if I wasn't Charlie's daughter.

But I guess that didn't matter to Charlie. He would hate me no matter what. And I just couldn't let that go. Slipping on my big fluffy robe I made my way over to the bedroom balcony that over looked the city.

I still couldn't believe this was happening.

You know when something just feels so surreal? And you completely detach yourself from the case. And you just can't believe everything is happening to you. You refuse to see anything? That's how I've been coping.

But now.

Now I don't have a mother – am I supposed to feel sorry about that? Am I supposed to feel anything about that? I couldn't even bring myself to go to the funeral. I just spent time with my real family that day. Ali, Jasper, Rose + baby, Emmett, Esme, Carlisle and of coarse my rock. Edward.

He had been so amazing through all of this that I'm actually so surprised he hasn't turned around and run away yet. And I'm not strong enough to leave him behind. He just means to much.

As if it was an amazing coincidence, my hand slipped into my pocket and phone my mobile, which had been left on Charlie's pathetic excuse for a text.

Can't come. Sorry – Charlie

No I love you. No kiss. No love dad. He didn't believe I was his. And now he's finally going to cut all ties. Like he didn't even care.

Pathetic.

Without knowing what I was doing, I just raise my hand, drew it back, and threw my blasted phone off the top story of my building. And it went straight into the East river. Who knew I had such an arm hey?

Tears spilled over my eyes as I watched everything slip away under the ebb and flow of the water.

"Hey baby?" Edward whispered, wrapping his strong arms around me, rocking me from side to side. Closing my eyes I leaned into him, savouring the warmth he brought with him. And, for the first time since everything started – Sugar cookie meltdown aside – I broke down.

"shhh baby" he whispered, turning me around so I could cry into the T-shirt he had slipped on. He just held me as I cried, which seamed to last forever.

"Is there anything I can do baby?"

"Don't worry. You're already doing it" I whispered as they slowed down to a trickle

"Are you sure" he asked again, brushing hair away from my face as I sniffed attractively. If that was even possible.

"Why haven't you run yet?" I suddenly asked, taking him by surprise

"What do you mean?"

"I mean, you've taken all this drama, been stalked, messed around and yet you are still standing here, by my side"

"I guess I am"

"But why"

"are you even asking me this right now" god I felt so stupid right now, but my need for this won out.

"please Edward," I whispered quietly "I want to know you stayed with me not because you had to, but because you wanted to"

"You know, for a smart girl you are very stupid sometimes" he chuckled, pulling me into the house and sitting em on the sofa. Taking his place on the coffee table he placed both hands on mine, rubbing shi usual soothing circles in.

"You know what amazes me about you Bella? The fact that you were in a coma for a week, and yet you have managed to catch up on all of the notes you missed whilst having dinner ready for me at home when I get back from training. You are also there for Ali if she needs help at the store. You've even started planning everything for Rose, because we both know Emmett doesn't know shit about that kind of stuff and Rose is freaking out. And while everything is going on, you are also helping my mother plan the renewal of her vows, helping create the wedding of her dreams. And I'm not even factoring how much emotional stress you've been put under-"

"Edward" I had to stop him. I didn't see the point in this. So what if I needed to keep busy over the past couple of weeks so I don't go over every single little tiny detail in my head.

"The point of that is, I love you Bella. The reason I haven't run? Is because to me, you're worth everything and more. You are so beautiful, and don't even see yourself clearly which just makes you stunning look"

He hesitated for a moment, before getting up and heading towards the bedroom. I was in too much of a shock to notice much at the moment, so I was jolted back to reality when he once again took my hands.

"Bella I know I haven't known you for very long, but I know I want to spend the rest of my life with you"

"Edward?" I gasped in shock.

He knelt down on one knee, taking both my hands in his as he stared deeply into my shocked eyes "Bella, this isn't an ideal time for me to do this in so many ways, but it's also a perfect time for us. You have grown to be the most important person to me, my best friend and most importantly, my family."

He reached into his pyjama pocket, pulling out a ring box with his right hand. I still couldn't say a thing. This was all happening too soon.

"I know we haven't talked much about marriage, and the future. But I would love you to know that I plan on asking you to be my wife one day"

"Huh?" he laughed at the look on my face

"Please, I know we're not ready for that type of commitment, give me some credit baby. But what I do know is that you need proof of stability right now, so here it is, in ring form"

And he opened up the velvet box, to revel the most gorgeous ring making me gasp in shock. And I'm going to kill him if he spent too much on that ring I swear to god.

"Bella, please promise me that one day you will say yes when I ask you to be my wife"

"yes, I will. No matter how many times you ask me the answer will always be yes"

and with that, he kissed me full on and with so much passion that I felt so stupid for doubting him in the first place.

"You are my life now, he whispered, pulling me into his side

"You are my family now" I whispered back. Knowing that no matter what had happened in the past, that the rest of forever started today
