I closed my bedroom door and flung Bella swiftly down onto my couch, I leaned over her and tickled her sides, enjoying the way her body writhed against my fingers with her laughter. I tried my damnedest to block out the teasing thoughts of my siblings and just tried to focus solely on my beautiful Bella but Emmett was practically shouting in his head, chanting, "Break in the couch Eddie," over and over again.

"Shut it, Emmett," I growled quietly looking back at my closed door, his laughter boomed throughout the house as I contemplated whether or not to shut him up myself. Before I had a chance to think too long I felt Bella's small fingers touch my chin and pull me back around to look at her, she gave me a small smile and my anger instantly melted away and at that moment it was just Bella and I. She reached up and grabbed a fistful of my shirt and pulled me down beside her, moving over some to let me lay flat on my back before she scooted over and snuggled into my chest. I held her to me securely with one hand and reached down and pulled a strand of her hair into my other, playing with it and rolling it through my fingers absentmindedly. I felt her shift first before I noticed her fidgeting with my shirt, she took a deep breath and I waited knowing she was mustering up the nerve to ask me something. I smiled to myself at my ability to read Bella's body so well it took away some of the sting of not being able to dip into her glorious mind.

"Um, Edward?" she breathed out finally, I could hear the apprehension in her voice.

"Yes, love." I answered her expectantly and buried my nose into her thick hair.

" I was just um…wondering, well you see…..,"she stuttered, concentrating extremely hard on an invisible string on my button up shirt.

"Bella," I said pulling her chin up so she could see the sincerity in my face, "You can ask me anything, you know that right?"

She stared at me for a long time with her eyes glazing over and her mouth slightly parted, she shook her head and blinked a few times before she looked back up at me and smacked my chest lightly. I chuckled at her and put my hand over where she smacked me feigning hurt.

"Edward Cullen…stop doing that!" she chided, jabbing her tiny finger into my chest.

I laughed harder and raised my eyebrows up at her innocently. "Stop doing what, Bella?"

"You know exactly what I'm talking about Cullen," she propped herself up on her elbow and leaned closer into my face, her voice dropped a few octaves and she looked right into my eyes breathing her cool breath into my face, "Stop dazzling me…." she purred, dragging her finger down my chest never breaking eye contact.

I froze unable to move or speak or look away for that matter. I felt my breathing pick up and it was a few minutes before I could compose myself before I finally dropped my eyes and took a second to come to.

I shook my head to clear it and looked back up at a giggling Bella who was smiling at me victoriously. That little vixen had turned the tables on me and had dazzled me, as she had called it.

"What's wrong, Edward?" she sang out.

I growled at her playfully and whipped her around so I was now straddling her waist, holding her arms above her head in one of my hands and tickling her sides with my other. Her breath hitched before falling into a fit of laughter. She writhed below me trying to playfully slip from my grasp but I knew she was quite capable of not only breaking my hold but probably flipping me over and pinning me without even trying. I wasn't sure if it was the probability of that thought that made my body respond the way it did or the way her body hit mine just right every time she squirmed, our breathing got harsher as my hand went from tickling her to flattening out and caressing her side. Her laughing abruptly stopped but her writhing continued, each time hitting my now growing arousal harder than the time before.

A low whimper escaped her luscious lips and I couldn't help but rock my hips to meet hers and she cried out my name as the fly on my jeans rubbed her roughly in the right place. The smell of her arousal flooded me and I leaned down and crashed my lips to hers eagerly pushing my tongue into her warm little mouth.

"Mmmm Bella," I rasped out between kisses. My tongue darting out tracing the smooth, full lines of her lips. I took her plump bottom lip into my mouth and bit lightly on it eliciting the most beautiful sound from her as she wrapped her legs tightly around my waist.

Deep in the back of my mind I knew this was moving too fast but I couldn't find any spare part of me not worshipping Bella at the moment to care. I continued to rock into her, grinding the rock hard bulge in my jeans into her warm center, I could feel her wetness soaking through her jeans and onto mine and I relished in the feeling, her arousal becoming so strong it was all I could take in every time I roughly breathed in, I could taste her.

"Uh, Bella." I groaned at her sweet, intoxicating smell taking me over. I was causing that, I was doing this to her. My cock pulsed at the thought.

Her nails ran down the length of my back as her rocking became more frantic, I knew she was getting close. I could barely make out the faint sound of leather straining with each movement of our entangled bodies.

I ducked my head into the nook where her shoulder met her perfect neck and I bit down lightly, sucking on my favorite spot. Bella whimpered and threw her hips up into mine roughly.

"Please Edward…." she panted. Please what Bella, god please say it.

"Please……" she breathed out again wrapping her arms around my neck pulling me tighter to her, her breaths becoming more labored, I knew it wouldn't be long now, "Don't…..stop." she pleaded, her eyes rolling back in her head before closing them tightly.

"Love, look at me, I want you to look at me." I rasped out.

Her eyes snapped open and she looked back at me with so much love and lust in them that I lost all of the little bit of control I had left. My hands roamed the upper half of her body cupping and palming her breast frantically through her shirt as I placed wet, open mouth kisses along her jaw before resting at her ear.

"Bella……" I whispered into her ear hoarsely, "Please…," I swallowed hard, God I wanted her. "Come for me baby."

She moaned out my name and I leaned back quickly to watch her come undone at my words as I thrust up against her one more time before slowing down and letting her ride out her orgasm against me. It took everything I had not to come undone with her, I shook as I tried to control the urge to rip off every last bit of Bella's clothing and bury myself deep inside of her. I held Bella's trembling form in my arms and took deep breaths trying to calm myself.

"Edward," Bella's raspy voice whispered in my ear as she rubbed her fingers lightly up and down my back, " that was…..," she paused and I looked up to meet her eyes fearing the worst, the weight of what I had just done came crashing down on me and I was across the room before she could speak.

I sat there on the couch completely dumb founded. Here I was, coming down from the high of my first orgasm, my body had never felt so relaxed and yet at the same time so alive in my life and here was Edward standing across the room pressed up against the farthest wall looking like he had just committed some kind of heinous crime.

"Edward?" I called, my voice still unsteady. Did I do something wrong?

He didn't answer me right away, he was standing there shoulders slumped, hands dug deep into his pockets, and he was starring a hole into the wood floor.

"Edward?" I questioned a little sterner, getting impatient, I had just had the most amazing experience and he was ruining this for me.

He slowly looked up at me and I choked back a gasp when I saw the sadness in his eyes. Was it regret? Did he finally regret being with me?

"I'm so sorry, Bella." he rushed out softly, "I…I shouldn't of….I wasn't thinking…you just….you deserve so much better."

I just sat there frozen, Edward stuttering over his words wasn't something that happened often or at all for that matter. He looked back at me with wide eyes waiting for some kind of response to his rambling but I couldn't seem to find words.

"Bella," he pleaded, "Please say something, anything…. you're killing me."

I stood up slowly and made my way over to him teetering on the line between taking him into my arms and reassuring him everything was alright or slapping some sense into him.

"Why are you apologizing?" I asked, resting my hands on his chest, " that was…..amazing Edward."

His face softened some but I still saw the self loathing in his eyes, he was always too hard on himself.

He leaned his forehead to rest on mine but didn't move to remove his hands from his pockets, he was avoiding touching me and I couldn't help but feel hurt. He should be holding me right now, after what had just happened I wanted to be close to him, I wanted to feel his arms around me.

"It's okay." I murmured, hoping it would sink in.

"It's not okay, Bella." he grinded out between his teeth, "It is far from okay. You deserve to be treated right and I…I practically attacked you, like some kind of monster."

I leaned back quickly and met his eyes, my fist clenching at my sides.

"That's enough." I growled out lowly, "Edward that…" I said pointing back at the leather couch which I was just now noticing was shredded in areas, "That, was one of the most amazing experiences I've ever had and instead of being able to enjoy it," I pushed him harder into the wall, "instead of being able to be closer to you afterwards, or hell….even being able to return the favor," I lowered my voice on the last part and his eyes widened in shock. "I'm standing here having to defend myself to you and your old fashion way of thinking." I let out a deep breath trying to calm down. "You're making me feel like I did something wrong."

He looked back at me stunned.

"Edward, did you not enjoy it, do you really regret what we just did?" I looked up at him feeling the rejection creeping in.

He pushed off the wall and grabbed me up into a bone crushing hug, "No Bella, that's not it, that's not what I was trying to say. I loved it, I loved making you feel like that more than you could ever know, it's just….."

I leaned back the best I could with him holding me so tight and cut him off, "You're just trying to tell me how I feel again, right?" I said cocking my eyebrows up at him, "You promised me you wouldn't do that anymore Edward." I broke my arms free and held his face caressing his smooth cheeks with my thumbs.

He looked back at me with guilt on his face, "I'm sorry Bella." he shook his head and gave me my favorite crooked smile. "I seem to be apologizing to you a lot, don't I? I guess I'm not very good at this." he leaned forward and placed a small kiss on my forehead.

"We're both learning all of this together Edward," I said turning and taking his hand leading him back to the torn couch, "we'll be okay," I laughed and he looked at me quizzically, "the couch however, I don't think it's going to make it."

Edward laughed back heartedly and pulled me down on his lap. "We haven't even began to break it in yet Bella." he whispered into my ear playfully.

****************

Weeks went by since that faithful night and after Edward's little declaration of us not quite breaking in his couch yet absolutely nothing had happened. Since that night he had barely touched me, we were back in the holding hands and kissing mode and I was less than thrilled. It was like having someone finally put chocolate syrup on your ice cream and then never letting you have it again, the last two weeks had been nothing but plain ice cream. Not that I was complaining about Edward, I loved kissing him and just being close to him but I couldn't deny every time I was near him my body wanted more.

He looked down at me from his book he had been reading and I smiled up at him from where I had my head on his lap, I swear by the grin on his face he could read my mind or maybe my body was giving me away like always. I knew he felt my aggravation the last couple of weeks but he acted like he didn't notice but I could tell at times he was just as aggravated. I rolled over to watch Jasper and Emmett play their video game still trying to figure out the last few weeks in my head when Jasper shot me a quick sympathetic smile over his shoulder, then I felt even worse, I can't imagine what my emotional roller coaster had been doing to him these past few weeks now on top of my aggravation I was overwhelmed with guilt.

"Bel-la." Jasper groaned out, "Come on, you're killing me here."

"I'm sorry." I squeaked, trying to think happy thoughts, I laughed when my freaky brain went straight to Peter Pan, I guess I've seen that movie one too many times. I laughed out loud at my inner musings and then felt an overwhelming feeling of calm hit me.

"Thanks Jasper!" I chirped feeling a fake sense of relief.

I looked up to see a confused Edward watching Jasper's and I exchange, I figured Jasper had been blocking his thoughts and I was instantly thankful to him, I wanted to be prepared when I talked to Edward about all of this, I didn't want him digging it out of someone else's head.

"Bella?" Edward questioned, not looking the least bit amused with being kept out of the loop.

I squirmed under his stare and racked my brain for a sufficient answer for him but drew a big fat blank.

"Ummm….." I drawled out trying to by some time.

"I'm bored…." Rosalie whined looking up from her Popular Mechanics magazine, interrupting my concentration on Jasper's block and Bella's stammering.

"Baby if your bored, I have some ideas that may…entertain you," Emmet stood up after chucking his controller, strutting over to his wife with a giant smile on his face.

"God Emmet, do you mind?" I growled out in disgust, I didn't need a mental picture of his plans.

Emmett picked up Rosalie and swung her over his massive shoulder.

"EMMETT!" Rosalie wailed slapping his back with her fists as she hung up side down, "Put. Me. Down."

Alice jumped up with a mischievous grin on her face, "Let's go dancing tonight!" she chirped clapping her hands. It was the most animated I'd seen Alice in weeks, I still had no idea what was bothering her and my attempts to get it out of her had been futile.

"Ooh that does sound fun," Rosalie moved her head up so she could look at Alice, "I could wear that new dress from Paris that just got here yesterday."

"Nuh uh," Emmett chided, "First we have "us" time." he laughed as he ran her up the stairs at vampire speed. Rose screamed and giggled until we heard the door slam.

"We're leaving at 9:00," Alice's sing song voice floated up to their bedroom, "you have twelve hours," she laughed.

"Come on Bella, let's get you ready," Alice sang out as she skipped over to Bella and I on the couch.

"Alice you just said, we have twelve hours!" Bella responded looking at her incredulously.

"Silly Bella. It takes time to prepare, we have pampering to do, I have the perfect outfit for you and we need to call Charlie to see if you can stay over again!" Alice said like it was the most obvious thing in the world.

Bella had been spending all of her free time at our house and had already spent the night last night, I had heard from Charlie's thoughts that he was becoming weary of all the time Bella was spending away from home.

"Alice," Bella started as if she had read my mind, "Um, is Charlie going to mind?"

In a very un-Alice like move she looked taken back for a split second and then her eyes studied the floor like she had never seen anything like it before. I watched Bella duck her head to meet Alice's eyes, "Alice?" she questioned.

"It'll be fine Bella," she rushed out quickly and grabbed Bella by the hand and started dragging her upstairs.

"Good luck." I called out to her still feeling in the dark about her and Jasper's exchange earlier. She shot me a small smile.

I was intrigued. Bella usually put up more of a fight when it came to Bella Barbie time, as she called it and yet she willingly went. I was now even more determined to find out what was on her mind.

AN: Up next some hot dancing fun :) Please review and show me love even though it took me so long to update, pretty please :) Don't forget to vote on my poll please!!!
