I couldn't have been happier. It was like I had died and gone to heaven. I giggled to myself. When I died I was going to heaven. I knew because I got to see paradise on a daily basis. And I was pretty sure I had shown Edward a little slice as well.
I hadn't move from his lap after our encounter and as our breathing slowed it harmonized. Our chests rose and fell together. When the timed jets shut off a little while later it raised us from our steamy stupor. I leaned back and began floating in the water staring at the millions of stars above.
"Bella."
I heard the soft warning tone in Edward's voice and sat up again just as Emmett was opening the side door.
"If you two are done hogging the hot tub, the rest of us wouldn't mind a dip."
He had a leer on his face. I smiled serenely and made my way out of the water. I was too relaxed to care what he might have seen or heard. All that mattered was I had fully and completely dazzled Edward in a way no one else ever had.
Emmett let out a low whistle as I emerged dripping from the water. Edward shook his head and sighed at whatever inner thoughts Emmett was purposely projecting for him. I was feeling far too confident in this new found sexual power and pulled the hair tie out of my bun, letting my wet hair cascade over my shoulder. After squeezing some of the excess water from it I tried nonchalantly flipping it around. The water I had just spilled all over the deck, however, was not a friend to my lack of coordination.
I slipped and was lifted entirely off the ground by a very cold body. I gasped at the surprise and was staring at Edward who stood frozen mid-way exiting the hot tub. I squealed as Emmett began tickling my sides. Edward was threatening to tell Rosalie all of Emmett's impure thoughts for a human when Carlisle made his entrance.
Emmett quickly released me back to the slippery deck and this time Edward caught me. He flashed his crooked grin to the boys and then sped to his room. We were both laughing as the door closed behind us.
"At least they waited until we were done."
I'm sure Edward would have blushed and the look on his face made me giggle even more, but as his eyes roamed my body I grew serious.
"You know, we should take advantage of this opportunity."
"Which one is that, my dear?"
"The one where your body temperature isn't low enough to cause frostbite." I reached behind my neck and untied the strings on my bathing suit.
"Oh, yes, that one."
He took two steps and was at my side, his hands not hesitating in anyway to remove the rest of the fabric from my body. His trunks were off just as quickly and then I was in his arms again. He pulled the sheets back on the bed and laid me in the center. As he crawled in next to me I turned to face him. Our legs entwined and I sighed with contentment as our flesh met along the length of our bodies.
Edward pulled the blankets over us and wrapped his arms around me.
A/N: For all you greedy ExB couple moment people :) I Hope I'm making up for all the cruel things I've done to you in the previous chapters.
Also reviewing is your chance to keep the story alive :)
