Chapter 7
"My favorite thing about eating gummy bears is knowing that they can't fight back when you bite their heads off"
Edward's POV
I was anxious to play this game. I was going to find out some interesting and possibly valuable information about Bella. I dug my hand into the bag feeling around for a bit. I REALLY wanted to pull a clear gummy bear first. I wasn't at all surprised when pulled out a red one instead.
"Red it is then" I said with a sigh. "Red is one of the happiest movements in my life right?" I asked Bella. She nodded and smiled at me.
"Hmm well there's a lot to choose from…lets see….I'd have to say one of the happiest moments of my whole entire life happened when you told me you'd accompany me to Harvard this fall" I gazed into Bella's eyes and they were a bit glossed over. Bella was the emotional sort. It was one quality I admired the most about her. "It's your turn now Bells" I said trying to distract her from breaking out into tears and throwing the gummy into my mouth. She nodded and reached over to grab a gummy out of the bag that was sitting on my lap. I waited in great anticipation. Her hand slowly came out of the bag.
"Clear" she said and giggled. Of course Bella was the one to grab the clear bear first.
"You ready?" she asked
"Defiantly" I said while I waited for her to lean into me. Instead she grabbed my hand in hers and kissed the top of it.
"There we go! You're turn!" she said with a mischievous grin
"Wait! What was that? Are you kidding me? You're finished? That doesn't count!" I said. I was ticked off. That was not the kind of kiss I was expecting. What was Bella playing at?
"I never said what kind of kiss or where lover boy. I believe it's your turn now….". She was being a full out tease and I knew it. "Two can play this game" I thought to myself. I went to grab another bear from the bag.
"Green" I said. "So what do I think is sexiest about you?"
"Mhmm" Bella responded. She looked quite eager to hear my answer.
"I think it's sexy when you tease me…" slipped out of my mouth. I wasn't going to start talking dirty right away and say something too racy. That would come in due time hopefully…
"You like when I tease you Mr. Cullen?" Bella asked. "It just so happens that I thoroughly enjoy teasing you…". She started to lean into me. As badly as I wanted her to come close to me I knew I had to push her away. It was my turn to tease her.
"Where's the clear gummy bear?" I asked while I laughed. "You cannot come any closer to me without one. You made the rules darling…you have to follow them too. Your turn to pick" I mentioned while throwing the candy bag towards her. I could see the look of disappointment in her eyes. I didn't think she liked my rationale for not letting her kiss me…but hey… "all's fair in love and war".
She shook the bag and plunged her hand into it. She pulled out a yellow gummy. "Oh goody" I thought to myself. This will be very interesting. I saw a blush beginning to appear on the apples of her cheeks. She seemed hesitant.
"Yellow. Ok so I need to tell you one place I'd like to intimate with you…" she spoke softly. I was dying with anticipation.
"I've actually thought about this before…" she said. I raised an eyebrow. I was intrigued.
"Go on…" I urged her. She covered her face with her hands.
"You're going to make fun of me…that or be pissed at me" she said speaking through her fingers. "Why would I be pissed at her?" I asked myself. Then I heard her say something but her voice was too muffled to hear.
"One more time Bells…I didn't catch that" I said clearly.
"On top of…" she said then paused. She was still covering her face
"Oh common Bella! Don't keep me waiting sweetheart. You shouldn't be embarrassed…." I said trying to coax a response out of her.
"You're piano". There was a moment of dead silence while I tried to merge her sentences together. "On top of….you're piano". I saw Bella spread her fingers so she could look at my reaction. She wanted to have sex on my concert grand piano? "Wow" I thought to myself… "that's interesting…". I knew Bella loved that piano…but not THAT much. I was kind of digging the idea….I was actually enjoying the mental picture far too much. I knew I had to snap out of my trance before I got too excited…
"Bella." I said while reaching over to pull her hands away from her face. She had a weary look about her.
"Bella. I would have never thought in a million years that's how you would answer that question. My piano? Really?" I asked.
"I knew you were going to be pissed...I just knew it. You love your piano too much to ever have sex on it. I'm so stupid" She said with embarrassment attempting to cover her face again. I wouldn't let her though.
"Bella no! I feel exactly the opposite about it! I like the idea…no I love the idea" I said maybe too enthusiastically. "And you are not stupid honey" I said. She just stared at me blankly for awhile.
"Bella can I ask you why there of all places at least?". She nodded at me.
"The answers simple…I'm in love with you and the music you write for me. I couldn't think of a better place to merge the two feelings together…" she said. I had never been more in love with Bella than in this moment.
I had been writing songs for Bella on the piano since I started dating her two years ago. I dedicated a lot of time to creating the perfect compositions. I'd always surprise her with a new song whenever I could. She'd cry every time I played her a new one.
The piano was one of my passions in life…besides Bella and the medical field of course. My mother began teaching me to play the piano when I was no older than four. Apparently I had been born with a "knack" for it. I had gotten so good that my mother could no longer teach me herself. My parents invested in the best piano teacher for me that was out there. We would practice everyday of the week and I loved it. When I was about 10 my parents were informed that I could not get any better…I was almost "perfect' in the eyes of my teacher. My parents were so proud. That's when they had bought me my first concert grand piano…the largest piano possible. When I got my acceptance to Harvard in the spring I came home one day discover a brand new concert grand sitting in our parlour custom made for me. It was even engraved with my initials. It was the best surprise I had ever received. I made a mental note that that piano MUST come to Harvard with us….especially if Bella wanted this fantasy of hers to come true. "I hope Rose picked out places big enough to fit it" I thought.
"Oh Bella, I love you. That's the most beautiful thing I've ever heard. I couldn't agree with you more love. I only hope one day we can make that wish come true for you…" I said with a nervous smile. I didn't know how she'd react to my remark…
