SM owns all

EPOV 36

Bella's screaming scared the shit out of me. I was across the hall opening the door of her room in a flash. She was crying and saying she wanted to go home over and over. The hall light turned on suddenly, then I could see her clearly. I sat down next to her on the bed and placed my hand on her very naked back. Thank god she was on her stomach, is all I can say. My hand ran up and down her smooth skin, trying to settle her. Bella's crying stopped immediately as I shushed her.

"It's alright Bella, your okay now." I repeated that several times before I felt her completely relax. She said my name in a breathy voice, which made me smile. Bella tried to turn over but I couldn't allow it. I mean she was 90% naked, maybe 95%, those panties didn't hide much. Besides if she had turned over I probably would have humped her leg like a 12year old virgin. Nope, wasn't going to let that happen.

I placed both palms on her shoulders and gently held her down. When she asked me why I almost broke at the sound of her voice, she sounded almost hurt. I told her 'not like this'. It wasn't that I didn't want too, believe me but not in her vulnerable state. I knew now was my time to leave because if she asked again I may very well have let her turn over. The 12year old in me was begging for it, while I made my exit. I stood to leave but Zeus caught me off guard.

He was sitting just inside the door watching me. I walked out past him closing her door behind me. I rested my head on the frame and wondered why I had called her 'my Bella'. I could hear her calling my name as I headed back to my own room. Not my Bella yet, hopefully someday soon though. That was the last thought I had as I drifted back to sleep.

I woke just before 6 and walked to the kitchen hoping for coffee. I was disappointed however when none was made. I tried to remember everything Bella had showed me but with my brain still half asleep apparently I forgot something. Water was spilling all over the counter and floor, coffee colored water no less.

"FUCK! What is going on, shit how do you stop this damn thing, Damn it." I was pushing the button to shut it off but it just kept coming out. Emmett strolled in laughing and unplugged the pot, which of course stopped it immediately. 'Show off'

"Having a problem hear Ed?"

"Bella showed me how to work this thing so I'm not sure what happened. I did it just like she showed me."

"I don't think you did, see this part, it goes on top of the pot. This is why water is everywhere except in the pot. This piece pushes the button to release the coffee before it overflows."

"Shit Em I'm sorry about that."

"No worries, let's get this cleaned up and make another pot."

"Thanks" Once it was put together properly and working Emmett took off for his gym downstairs. I finally got my cup of Joe and decided to see what Bella and Emmett were up to.

Grunting was all I heard as I moved towards the gym. I walked down the four steps but before I reached the last one, I stopped breathing. There on the mat were Emmett and Bella sparing. Both were kicking, swinging, hitting and blocking each other. Emmett suddenly had the upper hand and he was working Bella over. He swung wide and she went in for the kill. I hadn't expected her leg to come up but damn was it hot to watch. She landed her kick with precision. Once they caught their breath I continued down to them. He bruised her, What? It's not too bad she said, well I will be the judge of that. I guess it wasn't so bad. She had worse? I suppose she has. When she left, Emmett and I got to our own workout.

"So you and Bella spare like that every week?"

"yeah about every 3 days or so. It's a hell of a workout, you know."

"Your both really good."

"Bella is still better, but I can live with that."

"Is she?" I was so curious it seemed.

"Yeah, I tease her but I know for a fact that she goes easy on me." he said with a chuckle.

""How's that. I mean how do you know she is taking it easy on you?"

"I have seen what she can do man. I told you she could be deadly, I was serious about that shit."

"I'm sorry I just don't picture her that way is all. I see how caring and loving she is with her friends, also she is friendly and open. Believe me I was shocked to see the two of you sparing really."

"What was so shocking? Don't you spare with your partner?"

"Yes, Jasper and I spare together, also with other team members. What caught me off guard was Bella. I never fought with someone that looks like her."

"What exactly does that mean Ed? Something wrong with the way she looks?"

"What! No, that's not what I meant, I just mean. Hell, never mind I'm not sure what I mean."

"Relax Ed, I'm totally fucking with you."

"Not funny Emmett. Your sister is gorgeous, completely."

"Whoa...I don't want to be hearing none of that now. Change of subject please."

"Fine. Does Bella have nightmares often?"

"No, why?"

"She had one again last night, it scared me to death. She was crying and yelling about wanting to go home."

"Damn it. She hasn't had that one in years. I could really kill Black for dragging that shit up for her again."

"Sorry man, she calmed down quickly and went right back into a peaceful sleep."

"Really? Did she wake up?"

"I don't think so, why?"

"She has never just calmed down before. Bella has always woke herself up and sometimes takes hours to go back to sleep. Especially after that particular one because she tries so hard to remember that fuckers name."

"The one they didn't catch, right?"

"Yea, they never said his name and I never saw him. Bella thinks that maybe she just missed it. They spoke Italian to each other and she memorized most of it. She didn't speak it yet, so she might have missed it, but I doubt that. After we were brought home she learned Italian in less than a year."

"At 5years old? That's indescribable."

"Yeah but she already spoke German and Spanish so it wasn't too hard for her. Besides now she speaks 18 languages."

"Damn, I thought I spoke a lot at 12, but she really does."

"Yes. Now stop your yapping and get on with your workout." For the next 90minutes we sweated our asses off. I made us some breakfast, since Emmett wasn't allowed to even make toast. We talked about school and the military, then about our time with the FBI. We played XBOX, guitar hero and pool until almost 2:00pm.

"Emmett I got to go get a shower man."

"How about we play some one on one first, then we can shower."

"I don't swing that way Emmett but thanks for the offer." I winked at him and he gave a loud laugh.

"Funny Ed, just because we live in San Francisco does not mean I'm gay. I do know some people though, if you're interested. Just kidding."

"Sure you are. Okay basketball sounds good to me." Emmett made us each a sandwich, because it required no cooking, then we went down to the court. We were sweating again in no time and had to remove our shirts. Now I had sweat on top of sweat, gah. I really needed a long shower. Emmett won the last game so we called it quits and headed inside.

Bella was in the kitchen taking some kind of medication, which Emmett was giving her shit for. 'Run he said, why should I run?' Bella disappeared, I turned my attention back to Emmett.

"Why would I run from Bella because of her taking medication?"

"Well that's not just any medication. That medication means she is getting her period, she will have total PMS so watch out. That's all I'm saying."

"Jesus Em, you had me freaking out there for a minute. I thought something was wrong with her." He is freaking out about a period and PMS, for real.

"Don't say I didn't warn you Ed."

"Consider me warned. Now I'm going to take a shower."

The hot water quickly had the bathroom filled with steam. Before I could get in though I caught my pinky toe on the edge of the cabinet because I couldn't see. I was biting my tongue trying not to screech like a girl, while I danced around cussing in my head. Looking at it I could tell it wasn't broken but it sure as hell felt like it. After what felt like an hour, I exited feeling much cleaner. I washed everything twice just to make sure I was extra clean. Choosing what to wear out was not something I normally did. I was more of a homebody, only going out when I was dragged by Jasper.

I was an okay dancer but didn't do it often. It seemed I always got stuck with a girl who either didn't know how or would just grind on me like a fish out of water. You know the kind that just flop back and forth on your leg thinking they look good. Deciding on my black jeans with a black button up shirt I figured it would look alright. The shirt was long sleeve but made of some sort of gauze material and I would just roll the sleeves up. Once I was finished dressing I knew I needed to check my email because I had a few bills due. Sure enough my electric and water bills were waiting, so I quickly paid them then moved on.

My mother sent one saying her and my dad would be in LA the week of May 9-14th for a medical conference and would only be reachable by cell phones. They didn't know I would be in LA also, I might try and surprise them. I shut down my laptop and left my room planning to just sit in the living room and wait for the others. When I reached the living room however Emmett was yelling from the kitchen so I made an immediate left heading in that direction.

I couldn't even finish my sentence when I rounded the door. 'Fuck me hard!' was all I could think and apparently I said that shit out loud too because Emmett punched my arm. Seriously though Bella could fuck me any way she wanted, really. She was arousing, provocative, delectable, heavenly, seductive and sexy in her dress. Or lack thereof. What is it with her and clothing, it's like she is wearing stuff only from my fantasies. I loved it. Emmett wanted her to change, why? She looked fucking amazing. Bella's outfit barely covered her breasts and ass, it's going to be a long night.

Shit I wasn't thinking about other men looking at her, yes she should definitely change. She will be wearing less in LA, this will not be good for me. 'Shit hard again' I agreed with Emmett but would never tell her what to wear. I took her hand leading her out the front door to the car. All the girls were wearing barely there clothing, but I could only look at Bella. We arrived at the club/restaurant in no time and were seated.

Dinner was great but I was getting nervous about going to the club part. I saw Jacob staring at Bella like she was his last drink of water. 'Not going to happen, dog!' I also noticed every other man in the room stare at her too. This could all go very, very wrong. A huge mother fucker placed his tree trunks around my Bella lifting her off the ground. Tiny? His name was Tiny, maybe they measured him by brain size. At least the Ben guy only kissed her cheek, Damn I need a drink. As soon as we were seated Bella told us about the club which was absolutely interesting. The girls went to dance and we ordered drinks.

"Damn Cullen how could you let Bella out in that dress?"

"First off Black, Bella doesn't need my permission to do anything. Second I think she looks fantastic in her dress, so why wouldn't I let her go out?"

"Hey I'm not trying to start anything, but if she was my wife I wouldn't let her out of the house in that outfit."

"Well there is the difference between you and me. You wouldn't let her if she was yours, thank god then that she is mine and going home with me. I'm the one with all the benefits no matter what she wears or doesn't wear, which ever the case maybe." 'Smug much, fucking right I am'

Jacob stood up with his own cocky looking smile and leaned towards me.

"Tell me Cullen how does it feel to get my sloppy seconds?" Emmett was out of his chair so fast I didn't even have time to blink. He had Jacob by the back of his neck.

"Listen to me you asshole, don't ever refer to my sister like that again if you want to live. Before you go getting to cocky and I let Edward here kill you himself, you should be honest with him. Don't you think? We both know you never made it past second base with Bella so don't pretend like you did." Emmett released Jacob who just nodded his head then walked away. 'Not passed 2nd base? That was unexpected.'

"Well that was interesting, maybe we should go check on the girls?" Thank you Jasper. I really needed to keep an eye on Bella, my stomach was in knots. The Shrine room was where we found them.

They weren't hard to find either. They all looked good dancing together. We watched them for over an hour as they smacked person after person away. I continued drinking my rum and cokes they were not easing my stomach at all. I wanted to be with Bella out on the dance floor. Emmett, Jasper, Ben and I also seemed to be batting away people right and left. Though Emmett did flirt with a few of the girls. I watched the girls go to the bar for shots then return to their previous spot. I saw red when this giant fucker tried to grab her. Emmett held me back.

"She said she could take care of herself, remember."

"Are you fucking kidding me Emmett that guy is massive and...and.. Fine." He was giving me a 'let her handle it stare' I would definitely keep my eyes on him though. Bella swatted him away too but he went back and this time I saw her cringe. That asshole hurt her. I tried again to move but Emmett had a firm grip on me.

"Emmett damn it, let go he hurt her."

"No Ed, if she needs our help she will let us know." 'He was joking right?' The 'Giant' backed off again but also again he went back for more, some people don't understand no. Maybe I should hit him with a dictionary. When he pulled Bella into him I pulled out of Emmett's grasp and started toward her on the dance floor. It was very crowded and was taking longer than I thought it should to get to her. I never took my eyes off of Bella but when that fucker swung at her, I really wished I had my gun with me.

I reached them just as her knee broke his nose and he hit the ground. I couldn't believe she dropped him like that, wow, that was hot. I could see the bruise his thumb made on her arm, it's a good thing Tiny took him out or I might have. Bella wanted my hands on her, that I could do. My arms had a mind of their own as they brought her body close to mine. Bella's body fit mine like a mold, our bodies lined up perfectly with each others. With her back to my front and my fingers were on her skin. I knew she could feel evidence of my arousal pressing into her scrumptious derriere.

When I kissed her neck I felt her quiver in my arms. As my hands trailed up and down her curves, her whole body seemed to vibrate along with mine. Bella wheeled around and seized my shoulders and pulled me into her completely. Bella's lips touched mine and for a second I was paralyzed, as soon as my brain engaged I trapped her within my arms. Her soft body meshed flawlessly with my solid demanding one. Again it felt like we were fused together, there was no Bella or Edward, we were just one entity. Moving and breathing as a single creature with every beat of my rapid heart.

When Emmett came between us it was my first instinct to keep Bella safe so my grip tightened exponentially. We did agree it was late and we needed to head home, where had the time gone? Leah pointed out our missing member with some fake blonde by the exit. Before we walked out though I just had to ask,

"What have you got there Black, a new chew toy?" I don't know how I managed a straight face. As soon as we cleared the doors we were all laughing so hard we had to stop walking because no one could see. I think he even snarled at me, see I told you, a dog. I do not even remember the drive back to the house, all I could see, hear and smell was Bella. She seemed to become my whole universe and I was not going to complain about that. 'Come on, would you?'

I gave Bella one final kiss goodnight before reluctantly releasing her to head to bed. Closing my door I quickly shed my clothing leaving only my boxers as I sat on the edge of the bed. I'm not sure how long I sat there and debated whether I should go talk to Bella or not. Standing and pulling on my sleep pants I decided I needed to talk to her now. Making my way to her door, everything seemed to be in slow motion, I raised my fist to rap on the door...

A/N Sorry this took so long but thanks for reading...This will be a busy week with Christmas which I hope everyone has a great one and a Happy New Year. I will try and post again this week but no promises.
