Hey everyone. How ya'll doing? Thank for the reviews. I love them. I am so exhausted. Who knew that throwing an 18th birthday party could be so tiring. LoL. Okay I will let ya get to the story.

Edward:

This has to be one of the longest fucking days I've ever experienced in my life. I swear. Waking up alone in Bella's bed hadn't been ideal, but it was better than nothing. I sent Bella a quick message just so she knows I was thinking of her. After Emmett and I made it back to the house, we went our separate ways to shower and shave. I tried to do something with my fucking hair but that asshole had a mind of its own. It was everywhere and no matter how much gel or hair spray nothing would change it. I tend to keep it short to try to tame it, but it doesn't always work that way. So, here I was standing in front of my closet in just my boxers looking at the bag my suit was in. God, I couldn't wait till tonight to see Bella in that dress again. It's so ironic that I chose a blue tie before seeing Bella. She's probably going to think I got the damn tie after I saw her. I'll just blame Alice for us matching. Ha, that little pixie would definitely tell Bella that wasn't the case and will let me sink myself.

Strolling over to my dresser, I pulled out a pair of black jeans, black t-shirt, and socks and sat on my bed and got dressed. I threw my boots and cut on, grabbed my keys, phone, and wallet. I went back to the closet, opened the garment bag, and checked my jacket pocket to make sure the little box was in there. It was my back up gift. The present I originally got Bella hasn't come in yet. I ordered her concert tickets to go see one of her favorite bands, Godsmack. They will be in playing in San Diego a week before Thanksgiving. I ordered them online and would have printed them out at home but I preferred to give her the actual tickets but they could take up to six weeks to arrive, so for now I picked her up a small gift. It's a gold bracelet. Opposite the end that hooks together it's connected by four diamonds and in the middle of those are two hearts semi overlapping each other. One heart is solid gold while the other is covered in small diamonds. Alice said Bella would love it and I trust Alice. I swear it's like Alice has foresight or something because she always has these feelings and her feelings are about ninety nine percent accurate. So, I decided I would listen to her. Alice wrapped the box for me and even put a bow on it. See, I wouldn't have thought to do that. I put it back in my jacket pocket and walked downstairs.

"Ready to go back to Charlie's?" I asked Emmett as he was stuffing his face again. I swear that boy acts like he never eats.

"Yeh. Let's go." He answered biting around his sandwich.

"Jesus Em, stop eating with your mouth full. It's disgusting."

He shrugged and headed outside.

Being on the road out in the open, like we were, felt amazing. It's like we're free while riding. I can't wait for Bella's shoulder to get better so that she can be behind me with her arms wrapped around my waist. Fuck me, when did I get so mushy? The gate to Charlie's opened as we pulled up and we parked in the same place as yesterday.

We walked in when the door swung open to reveal Billy. "Hello gentlemen. The guys are in the dining room. Come on in."

"Looks like they started without us." I said to Emmett.

"Yeah, no shit. Damn dude." Emmett said when Charlie punched his arm. "You know for a small guy, you pack a hard punch." he said laughing.

"You get used to it." Jacob said laughing right along.

"Okay, guys, let's get this shit done. Carlisle and I have talked and each club has their own side of the city, we have the east side and the Devil's have the west side. The main benefit of us having the west side now is that we will have access to the ports which means the shipments are easier to receive and control. Now that we are combining our clubs, the ports are now available for us to use. That will make our gun shipments so much easier. The only thing that I stress is that the ports are not being used for is people. Wait before you say anything, listen to what I have to say. I do not under any circumstances allow this club or members of this club to participate in anything having to do with human trafficking. I will take down any person or persons involved in that shit. It is disgusting and morally wrong. Yes, we own strip clubs and yes we are starting a porn company, however, everyone of those men and women are doing it willing. They must sign a contract with a lawyer present. This protects our asses. I do ask that any members that start a relationship with any of the employees at the club or porn studio, that they refrain from bringing their relationship and/or their relationship problems to said places. Now, here is how our territory will be as of next Saturday." Charlie finished his speech and spread a map along the table top. Our two territories were fucking huge. This will work out great because Chula Vista is 25.09 square miles, meaning our city is fucking huge. Once the merger is finalized, we will be supplying our dealer with a fuck load more drugs and guns.

Now before you assume anything, we do not deal coke, crack or heroin. Those three are off limits. We do deal with shrooms, acid, molly and ecstasy (MDMA). We used to deal marijuana but what is the point to that now when we have marijuana distribution stores that we own. That place makes great money and it is good to see that shit helping people who are sick. I won't lie, I've used molly once and really liked it. I haven't bothered to do it again yet because I do not want to do it by myself.

Let's get back to matter at hand. The two presidents decided that Charlie will be the head president, my dad would rather sit back and let him handle everything. His exact words were "Fuck this. I am getting to old for this shit, which made us all laugh hard.

I am to remain co vice president alongside Bella. This was Jacob's idea. He thought that our guys would feel more comfortable in the beginning. Jacob also suggested not telling anyone that he was stepping down until next week when we change the patches over, which brings me to the next topic. Neither side wanted to give up their patch design so it was agreed that Bella would be asked to try to combine the two together. Apparently she has a state of the art computer with the best design program. I guess she would have to since she's majoring in graphic arts. I've seen her work at the restaurant before everything went to shit."

It was agreed upon that Billy would remain the secretary and treasurer. Jacob will join Emmett, Sam, and Jasper as sergeant at arms. The rest of the ranks will be discussed next week after we do the crossover. My dad and I decided to keep our clubhouse open because for some members, that was their home. All our meetings from next Saturday and on will be done at Charlie's clubhouse because that will be our new clubhouse which gives me more of an excuse to see Bella a lot more. We broke apart to go to our separate meetings. Emmett and I flanked our dad. One week left with righting like this with him. He will be behind us a week from now. That is going to be so weird. Two years and he has always been in front of me. Hell, he's been the leader since I was fourteen.

Arriving at the club house, we went into our appropriate spots in the line of bikes already parked there waiting for us. Everyone had either concerned or worried looks. I'm sure there have been rumors circulating. I walked into the building saying hi to a few people along the way to the chapel, placing my phone in the basket. It was being brought into the chapel and locked into the safe during the meeting. We can no longer take the chance of our phones being chipped again. Sam already swept the room and found it was cleaned thankfully. I was second to last to sit. I sat to the right of my dad. Sam and Emmett took the two chairs to my dad's left. The only member who was not in his chair was Felix and that was because he was with the ladies.

My dad followed suit and sat in his chair and tapped the gavel. "I call this meeting to order. It has come to the tables attention that we are losing money in our drug and gun sales. We have some gang members hijacking our shipments because our schedules have been traced. Now, with that being said, we at the table have discussed a new schedule that will take effect next week. You will be notified when the schedule changes and where you need to be to receive the shipment and take it to storage. Now, because of recent events surrounding the hijackings and the shooting at C&C's Bar and Grill, we will be doing a patch over with the Hades Rejects."

Voices erupted, some in agreement and some in disbelief.

"Are you out of your mind Pres.?"

"I think it will for the better."

"This is ridiculous. They have done nothing but try to make our lives miserable. There has been too much blood shed. There's no way we can push aside our differences."

Those were some of the words I heard around, all the yelling taking place and that was only because those people were standing behind me.

"Listen. This is what is being brought to the table. Those of us at this table have taken a vote to bring it to you. There will be a vote and I can guaran-fucking-tee that it will happen." I started giving a swipe of the room.

"Let's get to voting, yeah?" Emmett asked.

"Very well. Sam you count the yeses. Emmett, you count the nos." I said. We started with Sam's "Yes" and made it around the room to me. "Yes."

The vice president always goes second to last. The president goes last. We all looked to him. "Yes"

"What are the totals." I asked.

Emmett said, "Seven no."

"Eleven yes." Said Sam.

"Majority wins. The patch over will happen next Saturday night. We will let you know the time once we have confirmed it with Charlie. The meeting will take place at the Rejects clubhouse. Now, I will lift the law for this decision only for those of you who wish to leave. I will not force anyone to continue with our chapter who does not wish to be here. I will also repay your member fee. You have until Monday at 5 to decide. We will have a meeting here at that time. For those of you attending Ms. Swan's party tonight, I expect you to be on your best behavior. Chapel dismissed." my dad said slamming the gavel.

Pop, Emmett, Sam, Paul, Ben, and I waited at the table until the last person closed the door. My dad spoke, "We aren't going to change any of the schedules yet. We will do that on Saturday with Charlie. That will be the first order of business as the new club. Now, on to a happier subject. We have about four hours to kill before the party. How about we get some lunch, yeah?

We stopped at a diner and talked and laughed while we ate. It was rare in our life for us to be able to sit back and wind down and to actually attend a party. This is the life I chose. I wanted the seat, the money, and most importantly, the power. I enjoyed seeing the fear in people eyes. I enjoyed fighting and firing my gun. I loved the thrill of it all. The adrenaline was the best high I've ever had, but now there was something else I wanted more than all that, Bella. I didn't want her to take this life but it was too late now. She was in it for life, the same as I.

We texted a few times today and I loved how flirty she was. As if I couldn't forget she was the one walking down the stairs. It was all I could think about. Seeing her in that dress. My oh my, she was such a beauty and she would be on my arm tonight. The greedy teenager in me was trying to shine through. My phone dinged with an incoming text and I felt my lips turn up into a smile. Alice sent me a picture of Bella talking with my mom in the hotel room, but it was the smiles on both of their faces that made my heart swell. Neither one of them knew the picture was being taken. I saved it to my phone then showed the guys. My dad's eyes showed so much love for my mother. For the first time in my life, I was jealous of my dad. I wanted a love like my parents. Urgh, enough of the sappy shit Cullen, get your head together!

We left the diner to head to the hotel. Thankfully we would all have our own rooms. I could not share a room with Emmett. Alice and mom were going to check in for us all and take our suits to our rooms which was fine by me because honestly, where the fuck would I put the suit on my bike? Easy answer to that, no where. Bella's parents got them a suite but I doubted Rosalie would be going back there tonight. They think they are being slick, but I've seen Rosalie sneaking out of the house. Alice is no better with sneaking around with Jasper. Who would have thought that we would date siblings?

We decided to go to the bar and have a beer before we needed to get ready. We played a few rounds of pool just joking with each other. Apparently we lost track of time because I soon found myself on the phone with a hyper Alice.

"Where the freak are you?" Alice asked. She is not one to curse.

"We are in the hotel bar playing pool. What's wrong?" I asked.

"What's wrong? Really? Edward you should have been dressed by now. Its 4:30. Get up to your room and get dressed now before you run into Bella." she growled and hung up on me. What the fuck!

"Guys, we have to get upstairs and get dressed. Party starts in half an hour. Let's go before Alice has our balls, yeah?" I said.

So now here I am, in the banquet hall waiting for someone I actually know.

"Hey darling, you look lost." some blond chick with big boobs practically falling out of her dress said to me.

"No, not lost. Just waiting on someone." I responded nicely which was the wrong thing to do because she ran her hand down my arm.

"I could be that someone you are looking for." She purred what I'm guessing she thought was supposed to be sexy, but no gross.

"No, thank you. I have a girlfriend who should be here any minute." I replied dryly.

"Are you sure about that? We could have fun together." she replied. I was about to respond to her when I heard Rosalie behind me. Fuck!

"Lauren, what the fuck are you doing? Do you really not know how to stay out of people's personal space? What the fuck are you even doing here?" Rosalie asked as she stepped into this girl's face. "You know what, don't even answer that. I just can't deal with your voice right now." She put her hand in the air in front of the girls face and said "Bye Bye now." Then turned to me and said, "Bella will be out any second now so go make your way to the stairs. My dad will hand her over to you when they reach the bottom." She grabbed my arm and lead me over.

"Thank you." I said.

"You're welcome. She's a cunt and I hope she burns in hell. Please be good to my sister." she said and gave me a small hug before disappearing.

The DJ got everyone to take their seats and then proceeded to get everyone fired up because Bella was right up those stairs listening. Fucking Cindy Lauper came on and I just knew that Bella chose this fucking song. It screams her.

"Ladies and Gentlemen, it is my honor to announce the birthday girl, Ms. Isabella Swan." Holy fuck my ears!

I looked up to the top of the stairs and there she stood proudly. My god, she was beautiful. Her dress almost matched my tie and flowed perfectly down her body. It had a slit going up her left leg and stopping about mid thigh. The top had all these little beads on them that made a heart shaped pattern. She was wearing blue and gold heels. Her hair was pulled up at the sides and was layered in curls with a gold tiara. I can see that our sisters did her makeup because it was darker then how she normally does it. She was looking around the hall and I was confused as to what she was looking for until she looked down to take a step and saw me. Her smile was breathtaking as it lit up her whole face. They made it to me. Finally!

Charlie wrapped her arm around mine and said with a smirk, "She's all your VP. Be good to her."

"Thanks Pres." I laughed and we walked to her seat. I held her chair out and took my seat next to hers.

"You were breathtaking coming down those stairs. You are so beautiful and I can't wait to have you in my arms." I said leaning in for a kiss which she happily gave me. It was a small peck but that was enough.

"Oh babe, that color does nothing for you." she giggled and used a napkin to wipe it off. "I'm trying to decide which word fits you. Gorgeous or sexy. I would say gorgeous right now."

I gave her my crooked smile and she mumbled "Never mind, you are sexy." I just laughed at her as I kissed her hand. "Come dance with me."

She sat there tapping her finger against her chin, thinking about it. "What do I get out of it?" She asked keeping her face blank.

"Whatever would you like?" I asked.

"Hmm, I could want a lot of things Mr. Cullen." she winked.

I barked a laugh, "Come on before you get me in trouble." I grabbed her hand and helped her up and lead her to the dance floor. I could see our families mingling and swaying across the floor. Her left hand was wrapped around my neck and her fingers were scratching through the little bit of hair that I had back there. It felt so fucking good. Her right arm was sitting on my hip. She can't move it to far without pain but I wasn't complaining. Her hand felt warm and perfect right where it was. My hands were on her waist dying to move down to cup her ass.

"What are you thinking?"

"Ass." I blurted out. Fuck, I'm so stupid.

She laughed. "Later." She said. Wait, what?

I just stared at her. "Wait, what?" I asked.

"You heard me. I said later. You have no idea how bad I want to jump you right now. You are to sexy for your own good, so please behave. We still have about four hours left." She said as she slid my hand to her waist as it was sliding to cup her ass.

"Are you a tease Ms. Swan?"

"I could be." she giggled.

"I can see that and I like it." I said as I leaned in to kiss her and I mean really kiss her. I heard a throat clear behind me. I turned to see Jacob smirking.

"Can I cut in VP?" He asked.

I looked to Bella and she nodded with a wink. "Sure." I said as I backed up.

I joined my mom over at the bar, although I couldn't drink, but I wanted to twirl her around the floor. "Excuse me ma, could I have this dance?" I asked holding my hand out.

I led her to the floor and was dramatic with swinging her in a circle and dipping her. Her laugh was brilliant.

"Tá cuma an-dathúil orm anocht." my mom said. (You look very handsome tonight my dear.)

"Tá tú go hálainn i gcónaí. Creidim go ndearna tú pop gan caint." I said. (Thank you ma. You are beautiful as always. I do believe you rendered pop speechless.)

"Ha. Is féidir liom go bhfuil an t-am." she laughed. ( "Ha. I do that all the time.")

"Tá mé nach raibh mar sin ní mór a chloisteáil go bhfuil ma." I laughed twirling her. ("I so did not need to hear that ma.")

"Bella Breathnaíonn álainn agus nach smaoineamh Ní fhaca mé go bhfuil póg. Mo OH. D'fhéadfainn an deatach a fheiceáil ó ar fud an tseomra." She acted like she had a fan in her hand and fanned me down. (Bella looks beautiful and don't think I didn't see that kiss. My oh my. I could see the smoke from across the room.)

"Mam. Stop sin. "Rinne mé gáire." I laughed. (Mom. Stop that.)

"I love when you guys speak Irish. It sounds so sensual." Renee said smiling.

"Yeah sorry about that. Sometimes it comes out and we don't normally know we are doing it." my mom said blushing.

"Oh, don't worry about it. We do it all the time. Kids said I used to give them whiplash when they were younger because I would constantly switch back and forth when yelling. Renee laughed.

"Yeah ma used to do the same, especially with Emmett." We all laughed.

"Everyone is having such a good time and they seem to be mingling really well." said my mom.

"They are, aren't they? Seems Bella is being past around on the dance floor. She's dancing with Emmett now. He looks like a giant." We all turned to look and sure enough, that's exactly what he looked like.

"Do you ladies mind if I go rescue her?" I asked and when both shook their heads and walked to the dance floor. Just as I approached Bella, the dj announced that it was for the father/daughter dance.

Charlie meant Bella in the middle of the dance floor and they swayed all across the floor. It was really good to see Charlie's soft side. They twirled and laughed.

Dinner was tense to say the least. Not because of the conversation or the people around us but because of Bella. She was driving me nuts. Her little whispers, running a single finger up and down my thigh and when I put my hand over hers to stall her, she just pushed it out of the way and sent me a wink. She knew exactly what she was doing to me. Trying to eat my steak and fight off her fingers was a losing battle.

"You are a minx, you know that right?" I whispered in her ear and was rewarded with a giggle and a blush. Again, I wondered how far it went.

"Don't worry, it will be well worth the wait. Trust me." she winked.

"I hope so." I replied. "It's time for them to take pictures of me with the cake. Come, get in some with me, yeah?" she said while trying to pull me from my seat. She tried as hard as she could but since she was only using one hand, she couldn't do but it was adorable to see it.

"Having trouble there VP?" I asked smirking.

"Did you know you are an asshole?" she asked.

"Are we back to answering a question with a question Ms. Swan?" I asked.

She sighed dramatically. "Fine. Have it your way then." She turned and walked away.

Oh no she did not. I jumped out of my chair and caught her around the waist and pushed her back into my chest. I heard her gasp. Yeah she definitely felt me.

"You have any ideal how turned on you just made me?" I asked.

"Oh I have an idea." she replied as she wiggled her ass a little. Fuck! That just backfired on me.

"You are an evil woman Angel."

"I know, but don't act like you don't like it. Your body says otherwise Bellissima."

"I love when you speak Italian. It's so sexy." I said. We were almost to the cake table.

"About time you two. I thought you were going to go at it on the dance floor" Emmett barked a laugh and received two smacks to his head. "Fuck!" We all laughed.

Her cake was both weird and unique. It was a four tier cake, black icing on the second and bottom tier and orange on the first and third tier. The black tiers had orange and yellow flames. The cake topper was, ready for this. A Harley. There also was cupcakes all around it on the table that had both orange and black icing. She loved it so that's all that mattered.

We took serious and funny poses but the two I think I will like the most is the only of us kissing and the one of us with icing on our faces. Yeah, she started an icing war which I allowed her to win. It was the moment that we were wiping each other's faces that it just clicked. It was fucking time to get the fuck out of here.

"Let's get the fuck out of here, yeah?" I asked.

"About motherfucking time." she said.

So there ya have it folks. I hope it was worth the wait. Let me hear what ya'll thought. I love the reviews. I will post the picture of Bella's dress, bracelet, and cake on twitter, instagram, and facebook. Come follow.
