A/N Happy Draft Week! Hehe It's finally here! Five days until I'm in my football happy place, watching hours of people getting on a stage and announcing the players that will help shape the team. I know, it sounds boring to many of you. But for me? It's exciting! Plus, Tampa is picking first and more than likely taking Jameis Winston, who played for FSU. A Heisman winning FSU QB going first in the NFL draft, after having won a championship, sounds familiar doesn't it? If only I could shape the future through my writing...

Today is National Hug an Australian Day! Did my Aussie readers know this? Who decides these things? Regardless, virtual hugs go out to all my Aussie gals! I dream and long of visiting your country one day. Also, it's National Pet Parent's Day, which naturally is close to my heart. My cats have given me nothing, unless one counts vomit on the carpet. The gift that keeps on giving? haha I'm sure Rainbow would happily give her Daddy a present, were she able to shop or hunt or something. Her gift today would have to be alone time, as you shall see. hehe

Let's talk about sex, baby! Have a great week, and I'll see you Sunday to relive my post draft high!

Getting Blitzed Chapter 33

I was so fucking stupid. Why had I promised to take Reed Girl to dinner when she was wearing only that slinky blue dress? It was like I wanted to torture myself like some crazy masochist. We should already be home and I should be buried inside her instead of glaring at every man with eyes in the restaurant. To say that my wife was getting admiring glances would be an understatement.

For her part, Reed Girl didn't even seem to notice. She'd been talking nonstop since I met her at the mall.

"And Alec already hooked me up with a visit to one of the local elementary schools. I'm going over next Tuesday to meet with one of the teachers. They're really excited about it, and so am I."

She definitely was. Her eyes were sparkling and her face was flushed. She was fucking gorgeous beyond words.

"I'm glad it's set up, baby. When are you going to play for them?"

She shrugged. "Not until after the holidays. It's nearly winter break for the kids. And I need to find some local instrument stores. I'm hoping we can get some sponsorship or discounts. Oh, and I haven't told you the best part!"

I fucking loved how excited she was.

"What's that, baby?"

"I talked to the director at the symphony. They're willing to partner up with us, put on some shows for the kids, come to the schools and do a little teaching when the scheduling permits. Can you believe it?"

I took her hand and brought it to my lips. "Of course I can. Who could say no to you? That's awesome, though, baby. You'll get to play with them in your own way."

She grinned. "Yes. Without having to travel all over the place. I can't wait!"

The waiter came over then, and I saw him do a double take at my wife. Fucker. If he wanted a decent tip, he'd better look away. Almost like he heard me, he looked over to me.

"Hello. I'm Carl and I'll be your waiter tonight. Can I start you off with a drink?" He smiled at Reed Girl, and I didn't like the way his eyes moved over her. "Our house wine is excellent and-"

"My wife can't drink, since she's pregnant with my baby," I interrupted, sending him my death look.

Reed Girl giggled. "I'll just have some water, please."

"Uh, yes. And for you, sir?"

"I'll have the same." Fucker.

Not surprisingly, he hurried away from me. Reed Girl's giggles got more pronounced the farther away he got.

"What's so funny?" I asked, because a random waiter ogling my wife was not fucking amusing in my eyes.

"You, being possessive of me. As if you had anything to worry about."

I raised an eyebrow at her. "One could say the same for you, Mrs. Cullen, but you were sure throwing down with Heidi a little bit ago."

She shrugged. "That was different."

"Oh, really? How so?"

"Because she actually had the balls to hit on you, even knowing that you were mine." Her pretty eyes were snapping with temper just thinking about it. It was hot as hell.

"Maybe. But she didn't stand a chance with me, either."

She smiled. "Yes, and I just reiterated that. It doesn't hurt to send a little reminder. I didn't even give her a dirty look."

I had to laugh at that. "No, you were all fake smiles and innuendo. It was fucking awesome."

"I made my point without any bloodshed."

"I didn't hit anyone. And if you don't think Heidi ran away from you just as fast as that waiter ran away from me, you weren't paying very good attention."

My Bella giggled again. "I saw. It was funny. Alec probably thought I was a little deranged at first, since I couldn't stop smiling and laughing when I first got into his office."

"I doubt Alec even noticed with you looking like that."

Reed Girl shook her head. "He's a happily married man. He asked me about the baby first thing. I really like him, Edward."

"I like him, too. But he noticed." He was a man, after all. There was no way he didn't notice how sexy my wife was.

She shrugged. "Everything was completely professional, Edward."

I sighed. I was being an idiot and I knew it. "I know. It's just…can you maybe not look that fucking sexy next time you come to a meeting with Alec? Or even to see me? Because my teammates are horny fuckers, baby. I can promise you're going to be starring in some fantasies tonight." And if I could rip those images out of their fucking heads, I'd do it in a heartbeat.

Bella frowned. "I'm sorry. I didn't even think about it like that. I just wanted… It's stupid."

"Nothing you do is stupid, baby. What did you want?"

"I wanted to show her that I was right for you. Worthy, I guess? Before I get big and fat and waddle around like a penguin."

"Bella." Fuck that noise. I stood and pulled her into my arms. "You don't have to prove anything to anybody, baby. You're gorgeous now and you're going to be gorgeous even when you're bigger and waddling." I was avoiding the word fat like the plague, even if she'd used it. "All I could think about since the moment I laid eyes on you today was getting you home and peeling that dress off your sexy body."

"I know." She grinned up at me. "That's why I was surprised you wanted to meet for dinner."

My wife knew me so fucking well it was scary. "I thought it was the least I could do, with you looking like that."

She licked her lips. "How about you do the best you can do, then, and take me home right now?"

I didn't have to be told twice. I got my wallet out and threw some money on the table, even though we'd technically not ordered anything yet. I took her hand, and we both laughed as we ran out of the restaurant. People were staring now for sure, but I didn't give a shit. I was taking my sexy wife home and getting her naked. They could all eat their fucking hearts out.

We had to drive home separately, which fucking sucked, but the instant we stepped into the elevator, we were all over each other. My hands found her breasts, and hers were on my ass as we devoured each other.

"You're so fucking sexy. You don't even know," I breathed before nipping at her ear.

"Tell me," she murmured, one of her hands making its way around to my front and brushing across my cock.

"I couldn't concentrate during practice. All I could think about was getting my hands on you."

She laughed breathlessly as she palmed my cock. "They're on me now. I bet your coach wasn't happy."

"No, he wasn't." I snorted. "Neither was Brady when I threw the ball right into his ass."

"Did you do that on accident or on purpose?"

I grinned at her. "What do you think?"

She giggled. "He probably had it coming, then."

Hell yes he did. His comments about Bella had been fairly tame, but still. You didn't comment on another man's wife. He knew that now, for sure.

The elevator opened, and we spilled out of it. I managed to get the door open despite the fact that Reed Girl was already unbuttoning my shirt. If the neighbors came out now, they'd get a bit of an eyeful.

I got us inside and hurriedly slammed and locked the door. I reached for the bottom of her dress and dragged it up her body. Sure enough, there was absolutely nothing on underneath it. Just naked, glorious Bella.

"You are a very, very naughty girl, Mrs. Cullen."

"Yeah? What are you going to do about it, Mr. Cullen?" The challenge in her voice, the smirk on her face…she was fucking perfection and mine. All mine.

"I'm going to have to punish you, aren't I?"

I gave her a light swat on the ass that made her shriek and run down the hallway. I chased after her, taking off my shirt as I went. I nearly fucking tripped when Rainbow streaked after us, thinking she was part of the game as well. Fuck that noise.

I grabbed her container of treats and tossed some in the living room. She made a beeline after them, and I ran into the bedroom, shutting the door behind me. Reed Girl was lying on her side on the bed, her body aimed right in my direction.

"So fucking sexy." I undid my pants as I stepped toward her.

"I wanted to be, for you." Her lips curved in a sultry smile. "I wanted to make you think about me; knowing that I was nearby, looking the way I did, and you couldn't touch me. I wanted you to burn for me, the way that I do you."

Fucking hell. "I did. I do." I kicked off my pants and my boxers, coming to stand beside the bed.

She reached out and stroked my aching cock. "I didn't think about how it would affect anybody but you."

I knew that she hadn't thought of my teammates at all. "And Heidi."

She laughed. "Okay, her a little. But mostly you." She leaned forward and ran her tongue over the tip of my cock. "I always think about you." She closed her lips around the head and swirled her tongue around before releasing me. "I always want you."

So fucking hot. And true. Especially with the added gift of pregnancy hormones. My wife had a voracious sexual appetite. We might have to have twenty kids, if she stayed this horny throughout her pregnancies.

"I always want you, too, Bella."

She opened her mouth and took me all the way in. So fucking good. I ran my fingers through her hair and let her control the pace. I stopped her when I got too close. As fantastic as her mouth was, I wanted her pussy.

I kissed her as I lowered myself down on the bed on top of her. She smiled up at me when I broke the kiss and cupped her face in my hands.

"I'm going to have to explore every inch of your body with my tongue. That's what I was thinking about this afternoon when I was supposed to be thinking about the Rams' defensive stunts."

"Well, that does sound like a torturous punishment, but I suppose I'll have to endure it." She ran her fingers through my hair. It felt fan-fucking-tastic.

I grinned before nipping her nose. "It will be torturous. You're going to be begging before I'm done."

She cocked an eyebrow. "That sounds like a challenge."

"You can call it what you want. I consider it a promise. You can call it a vow, if you like."

"Another implied wedding vow? I love those."

I kissed her, hard. "You'll love it, baby. You will."

And I made good on my promise, because I rock like that. I licked and sucked her neck, which was a special weakness of hers. Not even two minutes into my exploration and I had her panting already. I made my way down her shoulders, scraping my teeth over her soft skin before getting to one of my absolute favorite areas.

I ran my tongue over her nipple, flicking and biting, first one, and then the other. Bella's body moved under me, her hands holding me to her as I licked and sucked on her perfect breasts.

I made my way down her stomach, paying special attention to the bump. I knew she fucking loved that, and honestly, so did I.

"I'll be seeing you tomorrow," I murmured, making my Reed Girl sigh. Eli had come through with a female doctor, and we had our first appointment tomorrow morning. I'd gotten special permission to miss my morning practice.

"We should find out what we're having. I can't wait."

Neither could I, even if I already knew. But now wasn't the time for that. I sucked on her hip bone, making her moan and arch her body toward me. I kissed my way down her thighs, first outer, and then inner. She spread her legs wide for me when I got to the inside. I knew damn well what she wanted, but she wasn't begging yet, and that had been my vow. I had to make it happen.

I licked my way down her thighs, nipping her knee.

"You missed a spot." I glanced up to see a pretty little pout on her face.

"I didn't hear you beg yet, baby."

"You're not going to."

I smirked against her skin. "We'll see." I continued my exploration, licking behind each of her knees, which made her giggle and shudder. She was ticklish back there. I fucking loved it. I made my way down to her ankles, nipping and biting and driving her insane. I even kissed her cute little toes, which made her sigh and giggle.

"Now you need to go back to the spot you missed," she told me, but again, she wasn't begging.

I just laughed. "Are you kidding? I'm only halfway done." I rolled her over and made my way from her feet on up, making her squeal when I gave her a gentle bite on her sexy ass. I did the other cheek and got the same result.

It was hard to believe a back was sexy, but Reed Girl's totally was. I licked right up the line in the center, and she shuddered and moaned. When I got to the back of her neck, I nibbled and sucked…and finally I heard it.

"Edward, please. You're killing me."

I knew that, of course. She was practically humping the bed as I worked on her backside, but still, it was good to hear. I flipped her over and immediately started licking her pussy.

"Fuck. Yes. Thank you. God!" A bunch of words came out as she pushed her pussy into my face. I slid a couple fingers inside her, and pretty soon she was babbling nonsense until she shouted my name as she came. I fucking loved it. While she was still shaking, I moved up her body and slid right inside of her. She was tight as hell from her orgasm. Fucking awesome.

Since I'd spent a lot of time exploring her body, I didn't feel the need to take it slow once I was inside her. No, I fucked the shit out of her. And she loved it. Her long legs wrapped around my waist, and she met me thrust for thrust. She was hot and wet and absolutely perfect.

"Edward!" she grabbed my hair and pulled a little too hard, but it kinda felt good. She came hard around me, and I followed pretty much right after. I collapsed on top of her, unable to move for a few moments.

Reed Girl ran her fingers through my hair, and I winced a little. "Did I hurt you?"

"You pulled a little hard. It's fine."

Her lips brushed over my forehead and then over the top of my head. "I'm sorry."

"I'm not." I lifted my head and grinned down at her. "You begged."

She smiled. "Maybe a little. If this is going to be my punishment, I might have to return those clothes I bought at the mall today."

I gave her a smacking kiss. "Fuck that noise. You wear those out and keep that blue dress for me." Honestly, she could wear anything she fucking wanted, and we both knew it. Men could look at her, but touching was all mine. That was what mattered.

She giggled. "I can do that. I'm all yours, you know."

"Just as I'm all yours. But if you want to throw verbal smack downs to Heidi or anyone else, you go right ahead. It's hot as hell."

"I'll keep that in mind. We're both a bit possessive, aren't we?"

I smiled. "Who can blame us? Look at us."

She shook her head. "Ass." Then she slapped mine for good measure. It was really fucking hot.

"Watch out, baby, or we're going to have to go again."

She smirked. "Bring it on, Champ."

Well, I did love a challenge.

Xoxoxoxoxox

This was it. Today I was going officially hear that I had a son. Reed Girl and I were sitting in the waiting room, which was again filled with ginormous pregnant women. It was hard to believe that Bella would be that big one day, unless some of these chicks were having twins. That would explain a lot. One of them looked like she'd be able to block for me, she was that damn big.

"Stop staring," Reed Girl whispered, nudging me.

"I can't help it. How many babies do you think are in there?" I murmured back. How did women even walk with all that bulk in the front?

"None of your business. And I'm going to remember that when I'm that big, Cullen."

"Ha! You won't be. There have to be at least three babies in there."

Apparently I spoke too loudly, because the woman I'd been talking about smiled at me. "How did you know?"

"Uhhh." Fuck. What was I supposed to say?

"He's been reading What to Expect When You're Expecting like it's his personal bible," Reed Girl supplied, patting my leg. "He's all about what size the baby is at each visit."

"He's a cantaloupe today." The food comparisons continued. Strangely, I was getting used to it.

The woman smiled. "Are you having a boy, then?"

Reed Girl laughed. "We'll find out today. This one is convinced it's a boy, though."

Triplet-woman joined in the laughter. "So was my husband. And then we found out we're having three girls. He's still in shock and denial."

Three girls? Jesus fucking Christ. I'd kill myself. They were probably already squabbling inside there. The way the woman was rubbing her belly, I knew it had to be true.

"Wow! Do you have names picked out?"

And they were off, chatting about baby names and shit like that. I felt a tap on my shoulder and turned to the woman beside me. She was a brunette, with bright blue eyes. If she was pregnant, then she wasn't showing yet.

"Excuse me. Are you Edward Cullen?"

Of course. I even got recognized in the doctor's office. "Yes."

"Great game on Sunday."

"Thanks. You like football?"

"Yeah. I've been a Giants fan all my life. We're excited you're here. I mean, my family is and everything."

"It's good to be here." Triplet-lady got called back, so I brought Reed Girl into our conversation. "This is my wife, Bella."

"Hi, I'm Kim Browning."

"Hi. Are you expecting?" I was kinda glad Bella had asked. I didn't know if it was rude if I did it or not.

"Looks like," she murmured, shifting nervously.

"Is this your first appointment?" Bella asked.

Kim nodded. "Yeah."

"And you're by yourself? Where's your-"I broke off in a grunt when Reed Girl elbowed me. "What?"

But when I followed her gaze and saw the tears in the woman's eyes, I knew. Fuck. She was alone.

"Sorry." I felt like shit.

"That's okay. I'm just a little nervous."

Reed Girl launched into a tale of everything that Kim could expect for her first appointment. I felt bad for her. She looked really fucking nervous, and she was all alone. What kind of asshole left a woman to deal with that on her own?

"What time's your appointment?" Reed Girl asked.

Kim laughed. "About forty-five minutes from now. I got here early because I was so nervous."

"Tell you what. If we're done before they call you back, I'll go in with you. If you want, that is." Reed Girl took my hand. "I went to my first appointment alone, so I know what it's like."

And now I felt like shit about that, even though at the time I hadn't known she was pregnant and I'd been up here and she'd been down there.

"I didn't know," I told Kim, hurriedly coming to my own defense. "She didn't tell me because we were in different states. I would have been there."

"Baby, I wasn't saying anything against you. Of course you would have been there if you'd known about it." Reed Girl kissed my cheek. "I'm just explaining that I've been there. I was nervous as hell because we hadn't planned this, we were in different states, and I was working on my last semester of school."

"That first part sounds familiar." Kim gave a rueful smile. "But I couldn't ask you to do that."

"You didn't ask. I volunteered. We pregnant women have to stick together, don't you know?" Reed Girl smiled at her. "It would be nice to experience it from the other side for once."

"Well, if you're sure."

"I am. I just moved up here, and thus far the only people I know are New York Giants. It's nice to be around a female for once."

I just sat back and let Reed Girl and Kim chatter away. I couldn't help but feel happy that Bella had found a possible friend. A pregnant one, at that. They could do all that nesting shit that women needed to do during pregnancy together. And the shopping. From what I'd read, there was a lot of shopping needed. I'd happily relinquish that to the women.

We were finally called back, and Reed Girl made Kim promise to wait for her. They exchanged numbers and everything.

"Looks like you made a friend, baby."

She smiled. "She's really nice. And I feel so bad for her. I can't imagine doing this all alone."

I kissed her cheek. "You never have to."

"Thank God for that."

They did the weighing thing away from me, again, which was hilarious. I knew she'd gained a few pounds, and they were in all the right places as far as I was concerned. I only had to close my eyes and picture her in that dress from yesterday to know just how sexy her new curves were.

Eventually we got all settled and the doctor came in to do her thing.

"You must be Bella and Edward Cullen." The doctor shook her hand and then mine. "I'm Maggie Sharpe. It's nice to meet you both. So, you're twenty weeks along?"

Reed Girl nodded. "Just about that."

"Well, we'll see if we can see what you're having today, if you want to know."

"We do," I said before Reed Girl could say a word.

She giggled. "He's quite anxious for that."

The doctor laughed. "Most men are. Now tell me, how are things going for you? Are you still having morning sickness?"

"No, that's been gone for a couple of weeks now."

"Excellent. And your diet and exercise?"

"She walks for an hour a day." That was my stipulation. I'd even bought a treadmill, despite the fact that we had a gym in the building. If she wanted to go down, she could, but she had the option to stay in our place as well. The book had a big section on exercising. I'd studied up on that.

"That's excellent."

Reed Girl laughed. "He monitors my diet and exercise like a personal trainer. Even when I was in Florida, he had fresh fruits and vegetables sent over. I'm eating a lot of lean meat as well. And I'm doing some yoga."

Bless the yoga. My girl was showing some new flexibility that I fucking loved, let me tell you.

"That sounds great. Do you have any concerns or anything?"

"No, I don't think so."

They both looked to me and I shook my head. I was all good. I was on top of things.

"Let's get started then." The doctor looked Reed Girl over from head to toe, and of course didn't find anything untoward. My wife had had a very thorough examination at my hands and tongue last night. I knew she was looking great.

After all that, they hooked us up and let us hear the baby's heartbeat again. It was so fucking cool. I loved the whooshing noises that filled the room. Reed Girl got all teary again, of course. And then, finally, it was time.

The doctor squirted the stuff on her belly and the wandy thing got to work. It wasn't long before an image of the baby filled the screen. Man, he'd changed a lot. I could totally make out the head, and the arms and legs, even, now. He looked even more like a real, solid baby.

"So beautiful," Reed Girl whispered.

I squeezed her hand and watched as the doctor moved the wandy thing and created new angles and pictures.

"Well, it looks like your little one is being cooperative, Mom and Dad. You want to know, right?"

"Yes, please," Reed Girl answered, sounding teary. I glanced at her face, and she was.

"It's a girl!"

Bella let out a little sob and the tears really started to flow. Of course she was emotional. Having confirmation that we were having a…wait. What the fuck did she say? A girl?

"Are you sure?" I blurted out before I could stop myself. Had Eli sent me to a hack doctor? I didn't need another incompetent doctor coming in and fucking things up for us.

The doctor laughed. "Of course I'm sure. See right there?" She pointed at the screen. "Those are her legs, and as you can see, there's nothing between them."

It wasn't possible. Cullens didn't have girls. We had boys. Everybody knew that. This was a mistake.

"Maybe it just hasn't formed yet. That can come along later, can't it?"

"Edward," Reed Girl admonished, frowning at me.

"I think I'll give you two a moment." The doctor hurried out of the room, no doubt frightened off by the thunderous look on my wife's face.

"What? I was just checking to make sure she wasn't making a mistake. What if we bought all this pink shit and then it turned out to be a boy?" Pink. Fuck me.

The angry look melted away, and suddenly she looked sad. "You don't want her."

Fuck. Of course I'd fucked up. "I want her, baby. Of course, I do. I just…I don't know what to do with a girl."

"The same stuff you'd do with a boy."

"I was going to teach him how to throw a football and ride a bike and shit. Buy him his first pack of condoms. I can't do that with a girl." Condoms? Boys? Dating. Fuck no.

"Yes, you can. Girls ride bikes and play ball, Edward. And they most certainly-"

"Don't even finish that sentence. She's not having sex, ever. No boys, no dating, no nothing. She can be a nun. We're sort of Catholic."

Reed Girl burst out laughing. "This is going to be a lot of fun. We're having a baby girl."

I glanced at the screen again, but there was still no penis to be found. "We're having a girl…"

Lord, help me. I was so fucked.
