"Charlie's home. He's wondering where you are." Edward says as we pull into my driveway.

Today has been a crazy day, and I'm happy to be home, but I'm not happy that Edward has to leave again.

"Oh no! I forgot to leave him a message that I would be home late. I hope he isn't too worried."

"No he's not. He just got home from work. He had to stay late at the station because of a big case he's working on." He tells me and I breathe a sigh of relief. Sometimes it's nice to have a mate who can read minds.

Putting the car in park, Edward turns to me.

"Do you think I should come in?"

"Um I think we should wait awhile before you meet my dad. I just don't know how he's going to react. We've only known each other for two days really. Is that okay?"

"Yeah whatever you want. I think I should meet him soon though. I don't want it to seem like we're keeping anything from him."

"Okay I'll think about it."

He smiles and leans over the console to kiss me, his hand sliding up into my hair. Holding in a groan, I kiss him back with everything I have. Our lips are moving in sync with each other like we have been doing this our whole lives rather than a few days. His tongue is running along mine, tasting me like he can't get enough, and my hands have grabbed onto his hair. I have to come up for air, but I'm not done kissing him. Moving my lips to his neck and my hands to his chest, I continue my kisses up and down the column of his throat. His deep moan letting me know that he likes what I'm doing. Continuing on my path, I reach his ear and suck the earlobe into my mouth and nibble on it a little with my teeth.

"Oh God" Edward moans into my ear encouraging me. I make my way back up to his mouth as his hands slide around my waist and up the back of my shirt caressing my skin.

"Mmmm you feel so good Bella. So warm and so soft." He says running his hands along all of the skin he can reach.

Suddenly he pulls away completely and I look up in time to see my dad's head poke through the curtains. Edward and I are still panting and I see him try to adjust himself.

"That was incredible." he tells me as I catch my breath

"Yeah it was. I don't want to stop." I pout

"I don't either love but we have to. I will see you later tonight after Charlie goes to bed." He says and then he sucks my pouting bottom lip into his mouth and runs his tongue across it. "Sorry, I can't resist when you put it out there."

I just smile at him.

"I love you. I'll see you later." I tell him as I get out of the car and go up to the house.

Charlie is waiting for me with a cheesy grin on his face when I come in the door.

"Hi Bells. Who was that? You guys were in the driveway for an awful long time."

"That was Edward, dad." I tell him completely and deliberately ignoring his statement.

"Oh I see. And when do you think I'll get to meet this Edward?"

"I don't know dad we'll have to see how it goes"

"Okay B, but honestly if he's important to you I would like to meet him and get to know him." He tells me getting serious.

"Okay dad. I'll talk to him about it." I say "So what's for dinner?"

"Well since it's my night to cook I decided to grill steaks. I was just getting them ready. You want to make some sides while I'm manning the grill?" he asks as we walk into the kitchen.

"Sure dad. How about baked potatoes?"

"Sounds good Bells" he tells me as he puts his apron on. It's the one I got him for Father's Day last year and it always makes me giggle when he wears it. It has a picture of a woman's body with a bikini on. Ever since I bought him that apron, he wears it every time he cooks.

He struts his stuff out to the grill carrying the steaks leaving me laughing in the kitchen.

'That's the last one, so I'm going to go up to my room dad. I have homework." I tell him as I dry the plate and put it in the cabinet.

"Okay Bells. I'm going to hit the hay soon too. I have to be up early tomorrow. So I'll just say goodnight now."

"Goodnight dad. Love you."

"Love you too Bells."

With a quick hug and a kiss to my forehead we head upstairs. I head into my room and change into one of the nicer nightgowns that I have. It's light blue with spaghetti straps that criss cross along my back and it flows down just above my knees. It's stretchy and comfortable while being cute and sexy. I pile my hair up into a messy bun on top of my head and sit down at my desk. I actually do have some homework that I need to start on.

I'm just finishing with my the last of my math homework when I feel a cold finger playing with the straps along my back.

"I like this." Edward says still running his fingers along my bare skin

"Thanks. It's comfortable."

"Mmmm" he hums in reply "Are you ready for bed?"

"Yeah I am. I'm actually exhausted. It's been a long day." I tell him as I close my books and go to turn my light off. Sitting on my bed is a medium sized box with a big bow on it.

"I brought you something. Alice saw that we might like this so she got one for us." He tells me as he sits on my bed and takes his shoes off.

Inside the box I find what looks like a thick blanket. When I pull it out, I find all of the wires at the other end of it.

"It's a heated mattress pad. This way I can hold you under the covers all night and you won't get cold." Edward tells me as he starts pulling things off of my bed so he can install it.

"That's kind of brilliant. Remind me to thank Alice."

It takes Edward about a minute to have the mattress pad ready and my bed remade. We crawl under the covers and my head automatically goes to his chest and he wraps his arms around me.

"I can already feel it warming your skin. Does that feel weird?" I ask him

"No, not at all. It actually feels nice." He says as he lazily runs his fingers up and down my side. When he gets to one spot I jerk over and away from him with a yelp.

"What's wrong? Did I hurt you? Did something happen? Are you okay?" He asks me clearly worried out of his mind.

"Everything's fine I'm just a little ticklish right there." I tell him laughing as my face heats up

"Really?" He asks with a devilish grin "I'll have to remember that."

I give him my best withering stare "Not if you know what's good for you, you won't."

He just grins and wiggles his eyebrows at me. Moving back to lay on his chest I make sure to keep his hands above my belly.

"Goodnight. I love you." I say into the darkness.

"I love you too Bella."
