The Time I Became Your Girlfriend
It's been two weeks since Edward cooked dinner for me and since then, we haven't had any alone time. It's not for lack of trying, believe me, but over the last couple of weeks, our schedules have clashed horribly. When I'm off in the evenings, Edward is working nights and when he's off in the day, I have been stuck in the office. It's starting to get tedious, especially since experiencing one of Edward's pretty amazing orgasms.
It's Thursday night and Alice and I are sitting on the couch watching a murder documentary when my phone buzzes.
Hey. Guess what? - E
I smile at my phone before replying.
What? - B
Tomorrow is my last night working which means I have the weekend off. - E
I can't help the grin that spreads across my face as I read his message and I do a silent prayer of thanks to anyone listening.
"That Edward?" Alice asks, pulling me out of my thoughts.
"Yeah." I reply, "He's just found out that tomorrow is his last night working which means he has the weekend off." I tell her happily. She nods and gives me a smile in return.
"Are you going to ask to hang out?" She says, continuing to file her nails.
"Yeah I guess." I reply but before I can type out a response to Edward, Alice speaks again.
"Bella, have you and Edward had sex yet?" She asks. I nearly choke on my own spit in shock. "I know you've had sex in the past, but have you had sex since this whole thing has started?" She asks, gesturing to...all of me.
"Er...no" I tell her, feeling my cheeks heat up under her gaze. She gives me a small smile before continuing.
"Why?" She asks. It's a simple question with a more complicated answer.
"I dunno Allie. I just don't feel ready to jump back into bed with him. It's not that I don't want to I guess it's just..." I trail off, unsure how to word it.
"You just don't want it to be just about the sex?" She asks, knowingly. I nod in reply. "Look Bella, I'm not going to tell you when the right time is to have sex with Edward again. All I would say is that a happy, healthy relationship has got to be more than the occasional hot kiss and takeout. It should be a balance." She says gently. I nod again.
"Yeah, I know." I tell her, shrugging a little.
"Why don't you invite him over here tomorrow night? You don't necessarily have to go the full hog or anything, but why not open a bottle of wine and just see what happens?" She says.
"What about you though?" I reply, not really liking the idea of her being right next door during this potential sexcapade.
"I'll go to Jasper's for the evening. I'm sure I can keep him preoccupied for at least a few hours." She tells me with a wink, making me laugh at her.
"Okay." I tell her, turning back to my phone and typing out my reply to Edward.
Alice is going to spend the evening with Jasper at your place. Want to come over? - B
His reply is almost instantaneous.
Fuck yeah - E
I grin as I read his message.
"You two better not be sexting over there," Alice says with a chuckle. I give her the finger before she throws her nail file at my head, walking off into her bedroom with a cackle.
By Saturday evening I'm a bundle of nerves and excitement. Since texting Edward on Thursday night I've thought a lot about what Alice said and I've decided that she's right. If I want to have a happy and healthy relationship with Edward I need to be willing to give more than a makeout session and takeout especially as he's been so patient and understanding about our newfound relationship, way more than I was anticipating.
He's been understanding when I've said I want to go slow, he's always checking in to make sure he's not pushing my boundaries and has never once complained or even hinted that he has wanted more than I'm willing to give. He's managed to find a balance between never pushing for more but always being the one to initiate things. So, I've come to a decision, that tonight that is going to change. I'm going to take the reins.
Edward and I have made plans for him to come over at about six. Alice left about twenty minutes ago with a wink and the wise words of "don't do anything I wouldn't do", which means that he will be arriving any minute.
I swallow down the butterflies in my stomach while I quickly check around the apartment, making sure everything is perfect. I've tried to make a bit more of an effort tonight, so, I've lit the lamps in the living room as well as some candles. I have a bottle of wine breathing on the counter and a chocolate cake in the fridge for later. I've dressed in my best pair of jeans, a low-cut deep blue blouse, and added some light makeup. I've also left one bedside lamp on in my room, just in case we end up in there later. I'm just plumping up the couch cushions again when I hear a quiet knock on the door.
Okay. This is it. Just be confident.
I swallow thickly before moving to open the door. In the hallway stands Edward, dressed in dark jeans and a burgundy sweater that hugs his body in all the right ways.
Fuck he looks good.
"Hey" He says, giving me a smirk when he sees me checking him out.
"Hey" I reply, looking him in the eyes as I step back to let him into the apartment. He walks past me and I can smell his aftershave and cigarettes. It's almost heady.
"Can I get you a glass of wine?" I ask as we head into the kitchen.
"Sure" He says. I smile and turn to pour two generous glasses before turning back to hand him one. He smiles his thanks and takes a long sip. I do the same, enjoying the feel of the alcohol on the back of my throat.
"Shall we sit?" I ask before he nods and follows me into the living room. "So how was your day?" I continue, once we're settled on the couch.
"Good. I slept in quite late this morning, trying to recover from the last two weeks." He says with a small chuckle. I nod a little. "How about you?" He asks after a moment of silence.
"Yeah it was nice. I went out and got some dessert for later, that chocolate cake from that place you took me to before." I tell him, he nods, grinning at me. "Took me fucking ages to find it." I say, laughing a little. He laughs with me, nodding.
"Yeah it's not easy to find." He tells me quietly. I nod again. We're silent for a few moments, sipping our wine before Edward turns to me.
"You look lovely tonight by the way" He says with a small smile.
"Thank you. You look pretty good yourself." I tell him, feeling the alcohol calming my butterflies and loosening my tongue.
"Thanks" He chuckles.
I want to kiss him.
So kiss him. Take the reins and kiss him.
I take one more sip of my wine for luck before placing it down on the coffee table and turning to face him. Edward looks at me but doesn't go to move.
"Did you want me to order the takeout?" He asks me quietly, his eyes fixed on mine as he leans his elbows on his knees and places his wine down on the coffee table.
"No" I reply, my voice clear and even. His eyes never leave mine as I scoot towards him slightly on the couch. I turn my body so I'm facing him more and then lean in slightly. I can feel his breath fanning my face before my lips capture his.
He groans quietly into the kiss and deepens it slightly, tilting his head and swiping his tongue along my bottom lip asking for entrance. I moan, massaging my tongue against his as he continues to kiss me breathless.
I want more. I want to show him that I want more of him.
I break the kiss and Edward's eyes flutter open. I move slightly to stand and Edward smiles at me, obviously thinking the kiss is over. When I place my knee on the otherside of his body, straddling him, I see a look of surprise cross his face before he looks at me with dark eyes.
"Bella..." He says breathily as I lower myself onto his lap, pushing him back to lean on the couch. "What are you-" I cut him off by searing my mouth to his, my hands going to his hair.
Edward lets out a deep groan as his hands go to my hips before sliding up my back, holding me tightly to him. I can feel him hard against me. We kiss heatedly before, for the first time ever, Edward has to break the kiss for air. I move my mouth along his cheek to his neck and try to mimic some of the things he does to me that drive me insane.
I kiss down his neck before swiping my tongue along his pulse point and gently sucking the sensitive skin behind his ear. He moans, tilting his head to the side to give me more room while his hands move from my back to my hips. He starts to move me back and forth slightly, rubbing my center against his cock. I moan as I bring my mouth back to his, kissing him hard.
Edward groans into my mouth before moving his hands to the front of my pants, popping the button on my jeans. I feel him try to sneak his hand under the fabric and pull my mouth away from him. I look down at Edward. His hair is a mess from my hands, his eyes dark and hooded, his mouth pink and swollen from my kisses. He looks like sex on legs.
"Sorry I didn't mean-" He whispers, starting to remove his hands from me.
"No." I tell him, grasping his hands in mine and keeping them on my hips. "No it's not that." I say quietly. He looks at me, his eyes searching mine. "I just don't want this to be about me. I want this to be about you." I tell him.
"But I like touching you." He tells me quietly, his face full of confusion.
He's so fucking sweet.
"I know you do," I reply gently. "It's just...I want to touch you tonight." Suddenly his eyes are filled with understanding.
"Okay. I won't argue with that." He says with a chuckle, making me giggle with him. "You're in charge." He tells me, his voice deeper than before. That one statement makes me feel more powerful than ever before and I decide that's exactly what I'm going to be.
I suddenly move off of him and get to my feet. Edward stays seated, unsure of what I'm doing.
"Stand up." I tell him. He immediately gets to his feet before I take his hand, leading him to my bedroom.
If I'm going to do this, I'm going to do it on a fucking bed.
We enter my room and I close the door behind us. Edward is staring at the bed but eventually drags his eyes away from it to look at me. I move quickly, recapturing his mouth in mine. His hands go to my sides, holding me to him as his head dips to deepen the kiss. I massage my tongue against his as I walk us back towards the bed. When Edward's knees hit the mattress, I break the kiss, pushing him to lie down. He toes off his shoes before scooting up the bed, lying on his back. I slowly crawl up his body, my eyes never leaving his.
I straddle his hips and recapture his mouth in mine. I twist his hair around my fingers, scratching against his scalp, the way I know he loves. He groans into the kiss quietly, then again louder as I start to rock against him.
I break the kiss once more, moving my mouth back to his neck, kissing, nipping and licking a trail down to his collarbone. I can hear Edward's elevated breathing and feel his racing heart under my palm. I slip my hands down his torso and then under his sweater, pushing it up slightly.
"Take this off." I tell him quietly. He immediately lets go of my hips and raises up, reaching back over his head, pulling the garment from his body. As soon as his chest is available to me, I decide to take my time, exploring his body in a way I never have before. I move my mouth down, kissing around his pecks and lightly sucking on a nipple.
"Shit" Edward groans, pressing his head back into my pillow.
Interesting.
I continue to suck and nip at it while I lightly drag my fingernails down the center of his torso, from his chest to his abdomen. Edward's entire body shudders at the sensation. I can't help the little smile I have as I move further down his body, leaving a trail of kisses in my wake. I follow the light dusting of hair on his stomach, hearing Edward's breathing become louder and more ragged.
When I reach the waistband of his pants, I kiss along his abdomen as I pop the button of his jeans. I slowly pull his zipper down, the sound of the teeth loud in the otherwise quiet room, feeling Edward's cock straining beneath the material. Once his pants are undone, I sit up. Edward's eyes open and find mine.
"Lift up" I tell him, pulling the fabric of his jeans slightly. He lifts his hips, allowing me to get them past his ass before I move down his body, pulling them off his legs, before returning for his socks, leaving him in just his boxers. Edward's head lifts off the pillow watching me work.
I crawl back up the bed, pushing Edward's legs apart with my knee so that I can lie between them. Edward's eyes follow mine before I break his stare and slowly kiss along the top of his boxers.
"Huh" Edward huffs, his head falling back onto the pillows and I can't help the small happy dance my insides do at the power I have at this moment.
I want to drive him insane.
I slip my fingers beneath his boxers, dragging them down only an inch or two. I nip the sensitive skin in the crease between his leg and where he wants me the most. He's so hard under me and I can smell his musky scent already. I feel my mouth water.
"Oh...fuck" Edward pants as I snake my tongue out and lick along his pubic bone, just inches away from where he wants my mouth.
I lean up, pulling his boxers off, leaving him completely naked.
Fuck, he really is a sight to behold.
"What do you want?" I ask him, my voice sounding deeper even to my ears.
"You" He moans. I feel my heart flutter at his omission but I want to hear him tell me what he really wants, boundaries be damned.
"Oh yeah? What do you want me to do?" I ask trying my best to mimic how he speaks to me, running my fingertips along his abdomen, ignoring his cock.
"I want you to touch me." He moans, his eyes desperate.
"But I am touching you." I tease, running my fingernails lightly down his thighs. His eyes flutter in pleasure.
"Fuck, please Bella. Touch my cock." He groans.
I now totally get why he loves me begging.
I decide to put him out of his misery and slowly reach down before grasping his cock firmly in my fist giving it a long stroke. His cock feels impossibly hard and hot already.
"Urgh." He groans, tilting his head back and closing his eyes in pleasure. I continue to pump his cock through my fist, twisting my wrist as I get to the head. I smear the pre-cum that's gathered around the tip with my thumb making Edward gasp in pleasure.
"Is this what you wanted?" I ask him quietly. He groans and nods, opening his eyes to watch me. "Tell me." I say, "Tell me how you want it."
"Faster. Please." He pants. I speed my hand up, pulling moans and groans from Edward's mouth, his hands fisting the bedsheets until he's panting for air. Then I stop. Edward's eyes fly open and he looks at me in shock. I smirk at him.
"Why'd you stop?" He groans at me, a look of pain on his face.
"Because I don't want you to cum...yet," I tell him. With that said I lower my head, quickly taking him into my mouth until he hits the back of my throat. I can't help but smile a little when I hear him stop breathing.
"Holy. Shit." He gasps as I start a quick pace, pulling out all my best moves for him. I drag my mouth up and down his cock, loving the feel of him on my tongue, while twisting my wrist around the part I can't fit in. Edward groans and writhes under me and it makes me feel so fucking powerful. I look up at him and see his head is thrown back, his eyes closed. I pull my mouth away from him. His head flies up and he looks down at me horrified.
"Please baby, don't fucking tease me." He says, almost whimpering.
"I'm not going to tease you Edward, but this is for you, so show me what you want," I tell him before sinking my head back down, keeping my eyes on his. I reach up and take his hand in mine, placing it on my head, showing what I mean. Edward groans, his hand tightening in my hair as I flick my tongue along the underside of his cock before circling the head and taking him back into my mouth. His eyes flutter at the pleasure and after a few moments, I start to feel him harden even more.
He's getting close.
"Oh yeah, just like that." He tells me, his eyes fixed on my mouth, his bottom lip moving between his teeth. I moan around him, pulling a moan from Edward in return. His eyes never leave mine as I take him deeper into my mouth, sucking harder, bobbing my head faster.
"Oh fuck Bella. You're going to make me cum." He groans after a moment, his hips thrusting slightly from the bed, his hand pushing harder against my head, making me take him deeper. I moan in response before sliding one hand between his legs, rolling his balls in my palm.
"Oh my god." He moans, "Don't stop baby, please don't stop." He pants, his head lolling back in pleasure. I suck his cock harder, feeling his fingers pull my hair almost painfully as I slide my hand back further, stroking the soft skin just behind his balls.
"Oh my fuck." Edward whimpers, a tight groan coming from the back of his throat. His breathing stopping completely for a moment.
Oh yeah, that's the sweet spot.
I can tell he's only seconds away from cumming so for my piece de resistance, I take him into my mouth as far as I can go before swallowing around him and pressing my fingers up into the soft skin behind his balls.
"Urgh fuck!" Edward yells, both his hands going to my head, holding me in place as his back arches and he releases into my mouth. His head is thrown back, neck extended and his legs quiver beside me from the force of his orgasm. He cums for a long time and I take everything he gives me, feeling high off the victory. When he finally comes down, his hands loosen in my hair and fall to his sides.
I gently release his cock from my mouth, giving it one final kiss and reveling in the way he twitches from the sensitivity. I sit up and look down at him. His eyes are closed, his chest heaving from exertion, his tongue poking out to wet his bottom lip. Suddenly his eyes flutter open and meet mine.
"Holy fuck." He sighs, making me chuckle slightly. "Where the fuck did you learn how to do that?" He says before continuing, "Actually, I don't want to fucking know, I'll have to go kill every single person you've ever done that to."
I laugh as he holds his hand out to me and pulls me down to his side. We lie there for a few moments, me fully dressed, him completely naked. I can hear his breathing is still ragged and his heart racing under my ear.
"Was it okay?" I whisper quietly, suddenly feeling the need to have him confirm it for me. Edward suddenly laughs loud and long, his whole body shaking under my head. I sit up on one elbow looking at him.
"What?!" I chuckle.
"Okay? Okay Bella?! It was fucking...spiritual." He says, his eyes closing in bliss. I roll my eyes at him before snorting slightly.
"Spiritual Edward? Seriously..." I scoff at him.
"Yes Bella...fucking spiritual." He says, his eyes opening and fixing me a serious stare. "It was hands down the best blow job I have ever had. Ever. In my entire life." He tells me.
"Really?" I ask, kind of surprised considering Edward's sexual history.
"Really really. It was like you just knew what I wanted and how I wanted it. And oh my fucking god, the thing you did at the end with your fingers? I thought I was going to blackout." He tells me honestly making me laugh. He laughs with me before I give him a small smile, leaning down and kissing him softly. One of his hands comes up to cup the back of my head before I pull away.
"You hungry?" I ask him. He chuckles quietly before nodding. "Come on, I'll order some takeout," I tell him, moving so that he can sit up. He scoots to the end of the bed before standing and looking for his boxers. While he dresses again, I slip out of the room and call the local Thai place down the road. I order our food before turning to see Edward leaning on the door frame of my room.
"They said 15-20 minutes." I tell him. He nods before moving towards me.
"Just enough time for me to repay the favor then." He says before throwing me over his shoulder, making me squeal. I laugh loudly as he drops me on the mattress.
"Edward, I don't think we're going to have enough time." I tell him as he starts to undo the button of my jeans.
I want to. I really want to. But I think I would die if we were interrupted.
"Oh yeah? I bet you I can make you cum in less than five minutes." He says seriously. I laugh at him incredulously.
"Oh really? And what does the winner of this little bet get?" I ask him, leaning back on my elbows.
"To pick the movie tonight." He says, raising an eyebrow at me. I think for a minute.
"You're on." I reply before he practically rips my jeans from my body. He returns a moment later for my panties leaving me naked from the waist down.
"Take your top off." Edward commands. I arch my back, wrenching my blouse over my head and tossing it to the floor beside me.
"And your bra." He says, running his hand up my stomach, teasing me.
"I think you're wasting valuable time Edward" I tell him while unclasping my bra.
"No I'm not. I just know that if I'm gonna make you cum in under five minutes, I need you to be properly stimulated." He says before pushing my legs apart and dipping his head, taking one long lick of my pussy. "Plus, I've fucking missed your tits." He says before licking me again.
"Urgh" I moan, throwing my head back and grasping the bedsheets beneath me. Edward then raises his head again to look at me.
"This is for you Bella, so show me what you want." He says my own words back to me before taking one of my hands and placing it on his own head. "Time starts now" is the last thing he says before dipping his head back down to my pussy. I laugh for a moment before it turns into a long moan.
Oh fuck. I forgot how good he was at this.
Edward switches between taking long licks and focusing on my small bundle of nerves, driving me mad in the process. I twist my fingers into his hair, earning a groan from him. He flicks his tongue lightly over my clit and it feels much better than before. I groan and do as he says, showing him what I want by pulling his hair slightly to move his head to that place again. He gets my meaning and focuses more of his efforts on that spot, making me pant and groan.
I feel him move his arms from either side of my hips to slide under my thighs, his hands now resting on my abdomen. The action tilts my hips slightly while pinning them to the bed at the same time. The change is sublime.
"Oh fuck" I moan. Edward groans in response, focusing his attentions on my clit. As he continues his assault on me I can feel my orgasm approaching rapidly. I writhe beneath him, needing something extra to push me over the edge. Edward seems to sense this and moves his hands off of my hips, sliding one between my spread legs.
He circles my opening with his index finger before pushing into me, pumping his finger in and out quickly. I'm panting loudly, my chest heaving as his other hand snakes up my stomach before palming my breast. I twist my fingers into his hair harder making Edward groan again as his fingers tweak my nibble.
Fuck me he's coordinated. He's right, this isn't going to take long.
After a few moments, he adds a second finger, pumping faster and harder. I can feel my orgasm rapidly approaching and start moaning louder, my head thrashing back and forth.
"I'm gonna cum" I moan into the air around us. Edward redoubles his efforts before sucking hard on my clit and curling his fingers, rubbing against that magic spot inside of me.
"Ohhhh fuck!" I groan loudly as my orgasm hits hard. I throw my head back, holding Edward's head against me making sure he doesn't move away as I ride out the best orgasm I've had in months. I moan long and hard while he continues to pump his fingers into me and gently lick my pussy, bringing me down from the high. When I've finally come back down Edward gently removes his fingers from me and gives me a soft kiss on the abdomen.
"Fuck" I chuckle, panting from the exertion. Edward chuckles in response. "You really went for it," I tell him before realizing what I said. Edward laughs heartily.
"Well, I am rather competitive". He tells me with a wink. "Plus, I've wanted to do that again for months." He tells me quietly, giving me a small smile. I smile back, feeling my cheeks warm. Suddenly I shiver, feeling cold now that my orgasmic high has worn off.
"Come on, you get dressed and I'll go pick a movie." He says, tossing my panties onto the bed. I grab them slipping them on before calling after him.
"What makes you think you won?!" I say.
"Because you came in under three minutes" Edward replies, poking his head back around the door and giving me a smirk.
"You actually fucking timed it?!" I shout after him. I can hear Edward's belly laugh from here.
As I dress, I think about how easy this has all been with Edward. Not just the sexual side of things, but just talking to him, being myself with him. I've never been this "me" in any other relationship. Suddenly Edward appears in the doorway again.
"Come on slow coach, Top Gun waits for no man" he says with a grin. I laugh at him as I follow him into the living room.
"Is that what you've picked? Top Gun?" I ask, sitting on the couch and sipping my forgotten wine.
"Yep and no complaining. I won fair and square." He says, pointing the remote at me.
"That you did." I say with a laugh. He smirks at me before turning back to the screen. Suddenly, the buzzer goes and I stand to let the delivery guy in. I pay for our food before grabbing two forks and bringing it all into the living room.
I hand Edward his container and a fork before he hits play on the movie. We watch the movie in silence for a while, eating our food and sipping our wine. It's perfect. When we've finished our meals, I take Edward's container and put them all on the coffee table. As I go to lean back on the couch again, Edward turns to me, opening his arms. I grin before scooting over, leaning back against his chest.
"This okay?" He whispers in my ear.
"More than okay." I tell him. I continue to watch the movie, Edward's arms wrapped around my middle, his steady breathing against my back. Just over halfway through, I ask Edward if he wants dessert.
"Sure" He says, pausing the movie. I stand and go to the fridge, grabbing the two slices of chocolate cake and two forks. I bring them back into the living room and hand one to Edward.
"Thanks baby." Edward says, taking the plate from me. I freeze for a moment.
He just called me baby.
I watch Edward as he forks a piece of cake into his mouth, moaning a little at the flavor, completely unaware of what he just said. I take a seat on the couch and look down at my cake. Edward reaches for the remote, pressing play again.
He just called me baby.
Does that mean we're officially a thing? Or does he just call people that?
Maybe it was a slip of the tongue?
A minute or two passes before Edward realises I'm not eating and pauses the movie again.
"You okay?" He asks, looking at me a bit concerned. "Is it not good?" He says, gesturing to the cake in my lap.
"Yeah it's fine." I say quietly, giving him a tight smile, trying to not make a big deal of this.
"What's the matter then?" He asks. My eyes meet his before I shake my head.
"Nothing." I tell him, taking a small bite of the cake.
"No." Edward says, taking my plate away from me and putting his own to one side on the coffee table. "What is it? Something's wrong." He insists.
"It's silly." I tell him, feeling awkward now that I'm going have to address his slip of the tongue that probably meant nothing.
"No it isn't. If it's bothering you, then it's bothering me." He says. I'm silent for a moment. "Do you regret doing what we did earlier?" He asks me quietly.
"No!" I say quickly. "It's got nothing to do with that." I tell him.
Oh god, you're going to have to tell him now.
"It's just...you called me 'baby'." I say quietly, glancing over at him to see his reaction. His expression doesn't change at all.
"When?" He asks, frowning a little.
"Just now, when I passed you the cake." I tell him. He's silent for a moment before looking at me again.
"And you don't like it?" He asks.
"No, I do. It's just that...you've never called me that before." I tell him quietly. "It threw me that's all."
"Yes I have." He says, "I said it earlier in the bedroom too."
"Yeah but you've only ever said it like...in the bedroom." I explain, feeling my cheeks warm at the ridiculousness of the conversation. "You've never just said it in passing." The more I try to explain the more stupid I start to feel about making it a big deal.
Maybe Edward calls people 'baby' regularly.
"And that's different?" He asks with a raised eyebrow.
"Yeah, I guess. I don't know. I suppose, most people might say 'baby' to anyone during sex but only in passing to a...girlfriend or something." I say, feeling my cheeks heat up under his gaze.
Oh god, I've just said the G-word to someone who has an aversion to dating.
"But you are my girlfriend...right?" He asks. I feel my mouth drop open slightly in shock.
Am I his girlfriend? We've never really talked about it.
"Am I?!" I hear myself ask. Edward suddenly looks awkward and I immediately feel bad. "I just mean, we've never actually said the word so I didn't know if you thought I was or not." I explain.
"Oh...well...I just assumed I guess." He says quietly. We're silent for a moment before he speaks again. "Would you like to be?" He asks. "My girlfriend?".
"Yeah, I'd love to be your girlfriend," I say with a small smile. Edward lets out a breath of air before chuckling a little.
"Thank fuck for that." He says making me laugh. "I thought I was going to have to take my cake to go for a minute there." He continues, laughing with me.
"Would you like to?" I ask him after a moment. "Be my boyfriend that is..".
"Yeah." He says with a goofy grin. I giggle slightly. We look at each other for a minute before Edward speaks again. "Shall I put the movie back on then...baby?". I roll my eyes at him before nodding, grabbing my cake, and taking a bite. Edward presses play and grabs his own cake, pulling me into his side and giving me a grin.
So there we go. Boyfriend and girlfriend just like that.
We continue to watch the movie before placing our plates back on the coffee table before Edward tells me to put my legs on the couch. I do, watching as he then lies alongside me, his own legs against mine and pulls me back into his chest. After a minute or two, I glance up at him and see him smiling softly.
"What are you smiling at?" I ask him, grinning myself.
"Nothing." He says, trying to stop the smile from spreading across his face.
"No no. Tell me." I say, leaning over and grabbing the remote, pressing pause again.
"It's nothing, really." He insists, but I just continue to stare at him, eyebrow raised. Edward rolls his eyes. "I've just never had a girlfriend before." He says, his cheeks going slightly pink.
Oh my god. He's so cute he's going to give me cavities.
"Awwww" I coo, unable to help myself.
"Fuck off." He scoffs, looking away from me. I giggle a little before turning to face him more.
"I'm honored to be your first," I tell him quietly. He looks over at me before smiling a little.
"Can I kiss my girlfriend?" He whispers, his eyes flicking between mine.
"Yeah baby" I reply. An emotion crosses Edward's eyes before he whispers.
"Now I get what you mean about the word 'baby'." He dips his head and presses his lips to mine in a soft kiss. We stay like that for a few moments, just sharing kisses before I lean back, cuddling into him again.
As the movie progresses I twist slightly trying to get comfortable until I'm lying with my head on his chest, his arms wrapping around me, keeping me tight to him. His warm body and heady smell start to make my eyes droop and the steadiness of his breathing and heartbeat start to lull me to sleep.
Suddenly, I'm pulled awake by the sound of a camera. I open my eyes and look up, my vision blurry from sleep. Alice stands in the living room, her phone in front of her face.
"Alice? What are you doing?" I ask groggily, looking up at Edward who was obviously asleep too.
"You guys are the fucking cutest thing I have ever seen. I had to capture this moment." She explains before wandering away. I roll my eyes at her and sit up, feeling my cheeks tingle from my blush. Edward just chuckles as he stretches on the couch.
"I didn't realise we fell asleep." He says, yawning slightly. I nod in agreement before seeing Alice disappear into her room, texting away on her phone. "I guess I should head off." Edward says before standing up.
I turn off the TV and grab our empty containers, Edward taking the plates and putting them in the kitchen for me. I throw away our trash before walking him to the door. When he steps into the hallway he turns to look at me.
"Thanks for...everything," He says, shoving his hands in his pockets, his eyes sparkling at me.
"You're welcome. Thank you for everything too." I tell him. He leans in and gives me a soft kiss before pulling away and saying goodnight. I watch him walk down the hallway to the lift before waving goodbye.
When I walk back into the apartment, Alice appears from her bedroom, smirking.
"I hope you didn't just sleep the night away." She says, raising a perfectly sculpted eyebrow at me.
"No, we didn't." I say, blushing under her gaze. She squeals before asking me to tell her everything. I agree but only if everything can be told tomorrow. She begrudgingly agrees before disappearing back into her room.
I head to the bathroom, taking care of business and brushing my teeth before going to my room. I strip out of my clothes and throw some pajamas on before sliding under the covers. I'm just about to turn my light out when I hear my phone buzz and see it's a group chat.
*Cute!*
Look at these two cutie pies - A
Below her message is a photo of Edward and I wrapped around each other, sound asleep on the couch. I can't help but grin at the photo. We look so right together.

I laugh at their messages before seeing one from Edward.
Fuck off. What I do with my girlfriend is my business, right Bella? - E
Seeing the word written down makes my insides flip flop. I hear Alice squeal through the wall where she's obviously read the message. I grin before typing out one single line.
Right baby - B.
