In This Life
Chapter 38
"Got it" smirked Jasper holding the mobile phone discreetly for them to see, before sliding it into his pocket. Harry laughed Jasper looked like he had enjoyed himself, maybe should ask for things to be stolen more often.
"Let's get home then" grinned Harry, they all got into the car, the Convertible was already flying home holding the rest of his family.
Only Edward and him were in the Volvo, and were there to see what happened next.
They saw Tyler's can skidding out of control, and Bella rummaging in her bag trying to find something. Her I-pod plugged in unable to hear the terrible screeching, Harry automatically tried to get out to help. However, Edward wasn't having any of it and held Harry firmly in his seat. Turning Harry's head away, he didn't want him to see the accident. So Harry was sitting there, snug against his chest unresisting as Edward watched the scene.
Suddenly everything went quiet, for a few seconds everyone stared in disbelief before screaming started. Everyone piled around the area, Edward wasn't breathing at all. Harry began to worry that Edward wasn't in control, he urged him to drive, get out of there before anything happened.
Harry saw just how difficult it was for Edward to drive, his hands were shaking. He was biting his stone lip until it cracked, and he was clutching the wheel far too tightly causing dents to form in the wheel and gear box.
"Your better than this Edward keep going" whispered Harry clicking the windows down so the fresh air could get in. Edward relaxed marginally, breathing deeply at the fresh air as they got home.
As soon as Edward and Harry vacated the car, Alice was bouncing over to them.
"You ok?" asked Alice concerned she had obviously seen everything.
"Will she survive?" asked Harry softly.
"Yes, she wont be back to school this year though" said Alice sounding relieved.
"She will have to repeat her year again, which means she wont be in your classes Edward" smiled Harry softly.
"What is the matter with everyone?" asked Esme coming out to greet her children to see them all huddled together.
"Bella Swan was in an accident, Edward barely got out of there without exposing himself" said Jasper.
"Actually I think he's never been more in control of himself" said Harry proudly, wrapping his arm around Edward's and hugging him softly.
Edward grinned his little crooked grin at Harry feeling so much better about himself. Harry believed in him, which was a great thing it made him feel as if he could do anything.
"These pictures are all from just today, I think she's been uploading them" sneered Rosalie looking disgusted.
"Who's uploading what?" frowned Esme completely lost again, after beaming brightly at Edward and Harry they looked so perfect together.
"Bella Swan has been taking pictures of Edward…she's been obsessed with him since she came here…that's obsession taken too far!" murmured Rosalie obviously pretty disturbed.
"Maybe it's best if we look in her room" frowned Jasper.
"I think you are right she has no right taking pictures of you without your consent you know what we do when we leave anyway" sighed Esme, everything with their pictures which include prom nights etc…get destroyed and all pictures from when they are matriculated at college get hacked into and disappear. Leaving no evidence of what they look like.
"Yeah" sighed Edward, why couldn't things go simple for him - he had Harry but something equally distracting was happening. With Harry believing in him though he could get though this.
"So who's going?" sneered Rosalie she personally wanted to go so she could destroy the room.
"Me and Jasper" murmured Edward softly, with a very human sigh he unwound himself from Harry promising to be back in five minutes. This was the best they were going to get, as Charlie wasn't going to be in. He will no doubt he in the hospital waiting on news of his daughter.
They were gone, running off into the distance before Harry could open his mouth.
"Harry would you like to help me bake a cake?" beamed Esme.
"Hm…sure no problem" grinned Harry he knew Esme loved too cook so the cake would probably be just for him and his wizard family.
He had two big families, his vampire family and his wizard family. He loved them both equally but they weren't one unit, like a normal family would be. Two completely different families. So that's what Harry began doing, even when Edward got home, helped Esme bake a cake.
Harry nearly laughed when she sat and watched the cake baking in the oven without moving a muscle. About a year ago it would have made him freak out, however he knew his new family could go days without moving should they wish it.
"Hey you" sighed Edward wrapping his arms around Harry placing small kisses on his neck.
"You should feed you know" murmured Harry already knowing his eyes were darker than usual after that close call.
"I know" admitted Edward, poking his tongue out to taste Harry.
"Edward!" squeaked Harry "Don't do that here!" he didn't care that they had seen it all over and over again. He just didn't like the fact that his family could see him like that. Oh don't get him wrong he wanted him to do it again, desperately and a lot more but not here.
"Pity" purred Edward into his ear, smelling Harry's excitement grow wider. Whimpering softly, Harry whacked the solid figure lightly knowing he would just hurt himself if he did whack him hard. Edward was addicted to holding Harry, letting the warmness invade him again. He now knew it was Harry's magic reacting to them, Edward wondered if they were warm as long as Harry was touching them.
"I'm ready if you are" whispered Edward softly into his ear. Needless to say Harry was surprised. Edward often spoke about not wanting to take things further out of fear of hurting him. Perhaps this episode of Bella had made him realize how strong he really was. Harry smiled softly, feeling giddy he nodded his head and ran up the stairs to Edward's room. Transforming a bed out of a dice, he also silenced the room so the other Cullen's couldn't hear.
For the first five minutes Harry thought Edward had changed his mind, as he just kissed Harry into oblivion. He was aching and hard and he hoped that Edward was truly going to take him tonight. Whimpering at the thought, he began removing Edward's clothes, kissing the perfectly sculptured chest. Harry soon lowered the trousers, his hand wrapping around Edward's impressive member. He could feel Edward hissing at his touch above him, before he knew it he was on the bed, his own clothes removed and Edward sitting on top of him smirking in amusement.
That was until Harry arched up, causing friction between them Harry's laugh was cut off. Edward kissed Harry almost brutally, breathing "Mine" into his ear, Harry clutched Edward to him feeling his whole heart expand hearing those words. He was Edward's he knew that but this confirmed it and he would never let go until Edward wanted him gone.
"Edward please" whimpered Harry he knew he wasn't going to last much longer.
"Ssshh" coaxed Edward, wrapping his hand around Harry and rubbing against it causing Harry to arch into him and come all over him. Harry lay sprawled over the bed breathing ragged as Edward began stretching him, soothing him even though he had no need to as Harry was enjoying himself. That was until three of Edward's fingers were inside him, wincing in pain Edward distracted him by kissing him everywhere in the matter of seconds.
Finally Edward deemed him prepared enough, Edward wasn't taking any chances of hurting his mate any more than necessary. Edward knew it would hurt no matter what he did, so with one big thrust he got it over with and slammed home into Harry touching his sweet spot causing him pain and a serious amount of pleasure.
"You ok?" whispered Edward watching his mate passionately.
"Move please!" gasped Harry, wrapping his legs around Edward so he could get a better angle so it would mean more of Edward inside him. At first he went very slowly, but Harry reassured him that he had control, that he or his vampire wouldn't allow Harry to be hurt. Turns out Harry was right, no matter how much control he lost he didn't have any desire to bite him. It was as if his vampire knew his mate wasn't ready for a thing like that yet. Edward learned something new every day, when Edward came inside Harry he felt magic flow through him. Edward actually felt his heart pulsing, blood rushing though his veins and warmness. It was different from when he always touched Harry this was way more intense. Eventually it began leaving, and Edward felt at loss he wanted it back.
"That was weird, you felt very hot to me a minute ago" murmured Harry cuddling into his unmoving vampire.
"Strange I felt alive" frowned Edward right back.
"I'll ask Sev about it later until then don't worry so much, I told you, you had control" murmured Harry smiling in smugness.
"You did" murmured Edward quietly, curling himself around Harry like a protective panther ready to strike. He could not get used to the fact he could touch Harry without the fear of Harry getting cold. Half the time he forgot, he was so used to avoiding humans because he was cold.
"I love you" murmured Harry softly as he fell asleep.
Edward froze in astonishment, swallowing the venom that pooled in his mouth. Practically gawping at Harry's sleeping form as if he had just been told he was human again. When his mind wrapped around what he was told, he purred in satisfaction, pulling the covers up he remained there pretending to sleep next to his mate.
Not before he said "I love you too". it was much harder and easier for Edward to say it. Harder because he feared things would go wrong, easy because he did love Harry, he was his mate.
Edward couldn't have been happier about his choices today, the book Bella created and the single pictures were sitting on the Cullen's table forgotten. For now anyways right now everyone just enjoyed their other half's.
How long will bella be out of action? will harry be gone by the time shes better? will harry end up kidnapped and back at hogwarts? rescued? or turned there and then? to try and make them leave him alone with his family? will he keep his magic or will it die with his life? after all he will be dead when he turns!
