Salvation Chapter 1, a twilight fanfic

I don't really know what to say, so I will just say thx for reading, and please review.

Prologue

Edward-

Bella was many things to me over the years.

She'd been my maid.

She'd been my nanny.

She'd been like a sister to me.

She'd been my confidant when my marriage turned to shit and became one of my very best friends.

She'd been the anchor that held me steady when the current wants to pull me under.

Who would've guessed she would become my salvation?

The realization slowly dawned on me as I sat on the couch strumming my guitar. She's across the room making Angel a bottle, her waist-length sable hair brushing the waistband of her jeans. Wonderwall by Oasis drifts quietly from the speakers overhead.

'And all the roads we have to walk are winding

And all the lights that lead us there are binding

There are many things I would like to say to you, but I don't know how'

'Because maybe

You're gonna be the one that saves me

And after all

You're my wonderwall'

I laid the guitar on the couch next to me. With the lithe of a jungle cat, I pushed free from the cushions and inch my way closer. Suddenly, I felt like a cougar on the prowl, yet my prey had no inkling I had set my sights on her. I stopped two inches behind her, but I felt the heat radiating from her in thick waves, surrounding me, engulfing me, tempting me closer, and then, I saw the slight tremor in her shoulders, and I knew she felt me behind her.

Her throat worked hard as she nervously swallows. Ever so slowly, she turned, looking over her shoulder. Her emerald eyes collided with mine and the realization was there. She felt the change in the atmosphere too. Her bottom lip quivered as my hand came to rest on her hip. My fingers applied just a slight pressure, wanting, needing to feel her weight resting against my chest.

Bella took me by complete surprise when she relaxed into my chest. She leaned into me, and all I can do is close my eyes and savor her closeness. My fingers float over the denim hugging her skin until I find the flesh peeking out from the tank top she's wearing.
