Chapter 12

I felt so embarrassed. Edward had this smirk, like he felt proud of himself, hich I was sure he did. I could not be mad. I was actually pleasantly surprised at the effect that I had on Edward. It must have been that he had been so stealthy before as to why I had never noticed that particular part of him. It seemed that now that I knew about 'it' that was all I could think about. My word! He is, I mean I'm no expert but wow. I am a very lucky girl.

"Bella, you think you might dial it back a bit? You're going to cause a problem soon with the rest of the family," Jasper joked.

Everyone snickered and I flushed scarlett. Edward leaned down and kissed my cheeks.

"How I have missed your blush. I love how your cheeks heat up just a touch," Edward said.

"Uh, as cute as that is, I think we need to get going, right, Alice," I fumbled over as I tried to direct the attention off of me.

"Yes, we need to go. We have a small window and if we don't hurry we could cause a rift in the vision," Alice explained.

They all nodded. I wanted to know what could happen but I decided to wait until we were on the plane before I asked about the rift. We went outside and I prepared to climb on Edward's back as usual but he stopped me. I gave him a look for why he didn't want me to do so.

"I think carrying you that way could be bad for the baby."

"Oh, I didn't think of that. Thank you, baby."

Edward picked me up and growled quietly. So, he liked it when I called him baby. Who would have thought that? That is something to file away for later. I leaned my head against his chest and smiled. I closed my eyes to prepare for the journey.

"We will meet at the back of the airfield behind our hanger. It's dark so there will be less chance of being noticed. There are security cameras but Jazz will cut them off before we get there and turn them back on once we are in the plane. The cameras are for our benefit and not the actual airports so if one of the pack manages to get access to security cameras, we will not be on any of them. Sound good? Okay, see you soon," and then we were all running.

I forgot how much I loved the exhilarating feeling of zooming through the forest. It actually felt like we were flying. Edward moved so fluidly that I was in awe of this ability. I would love to kiss him or do something to show my love, affection and adoration of the man but I was afraid of distracting him to the point of actually fumbling. I figured at this speed, it could be very dangerous for me. Edward looked down at me.

"What have you been thinking so hard about, love?"

"Nothing. What I'm thinking will get me in so much trouble."

"Call me intrigued. I really want to know what you could be thinking about that could get you in trouble. What could it be?"

He quirked an eyebrow at me and smirked. Even though he could not read my mind properly, Edward knew exactly what I was thinking as my heart rate started taking off. This was one sure way to know I was turned on and I was so aroused right now that I knew he could tell that too.

"My my, whatever it is that you are thinking has made you excited in a very good way. But considering I am running over 200 miles an hour, maybe we should wait until i'm not running, if that is okay with you," Edward smoldered.

"I suppose it can wait. We've waited this long, what's thirty minutes or so?"

"Thirty minutes?! You think I can run to Port Angeles in about a half an hour? Hmmm. If given the right motivation I could be persuaded to go faster."

"There might be a reward waiting for you on the plan if you do speed up."

Edward growled.

"My love, your wish is my command."

I laughed as he sped up and we were hurtling through the first at breakneck speed but I was not the slightest bit worried. I knew I was safe in Edward's arms. The way he held me I felt safe and comforted. He cocooned me in his arms and kept his nose in my hair, breathing in my scent. I could smell his sunshine and sandalwood scent that I always identified as him. It was his signature smell and I loved it. It was probably what attracted me to him. Well that and his voice, his body, that butt, the feeling of his . . . .

"Bella! Please! What ever you are thinking has sped your heart rate and increased your arousal tenfold. Dial it back for just a little while. There is a bedroom on the plane that I am sure the other four will not mind if we use," Edward pleaded.

"But can't they hear us?" I asked.

"The sound system keeps them from hearing us along with the noise cancelling walls. I am sure they will know what we are up to but they will leave us alone."

"No one will stop us?"

"Well, Alice is telling me that my Victorian ways will not allow me to sleep with a married woman. But I think I can get him to shut up, tell him to go fuck off some place."

I just about came at that word. It turned me on big time.

"You like that do you? You like me using such language? It makes you wet and wanting."

"Yes," I panted.

"Good to know. I will keep that in my arsenal to thrust upon you when you least expect it."

"You have to give me a minute. You are overloading me with thoughts, images and ideas. Who knew that you had all that lurking inside of you? I so want you to let him out to play, well as much as you can."

"Five minutes. We will be there in five minutes and after being remotely cordial you are mine."

"Five minutes," I repeated. "Do something to distract me."

"What would you like? A play? A story? A song?"

"Hum me something you've written."

"I can do that."

Edward started off with Esme's song and morphed into my lullaby. I have sorely missed this. He was a gifted composer and his music was so beautiful, so soothing. I could get lost in his music and I must have because the next thing I knew I was sitting in my seat on the plane. He and I were the only ones there. I gave him a look and he laughed.

"As much as I want to ignore my family and give into you, we do need to talk with them and see if Alice has seen anything else now that she was away from us. Then we can excuse ourselves to indulge in other things. Will that be okay, love?" Edward asked.

"Whatever you say and whatever gets you naked," I cooed.

Edward growled. "Love, you have to stop speaking like that. I cannot control what I might do to you before they get here."

"Then let loose and show me what you've got."

I was out of my seat faster than I could have blinked and his lips were on me, with one hand in my hair and the other massaging my ass. My body was pulled snug to his and you could not have placed a hair between us. I could feel all of him against all of me and it was glorious.

"I want you, Bella. I want you right now," Edward purred.

"Then take me. I'm yours,``I replied.

"You might want to hold that thought," Alice interrupted.

Damn it!

AUTHOR NOTE: Sorry took so long. Life. And for the person worrying I'm going to kill off the baby, I'm not. I have a weird idea. Prepare to see me do something odd. Laters.
