I woke up with my body on the bed and one anxious vampire staring at me. I yawned and sat up. I ignored Edward and slipped off the bed and walked downstairs. The girls, I noticed, were nowhere to be seen. I sat down on the couch next to Jasper. Emmett got up from the chair and sat beside me. I laid my head back and then closed my eyes.

When I woke up again, I was in Emmett and Rose's room, and I was in nothing but my underwear and bra. I bolted up straight and saw Emmett and Jasper on the other side of the room staring at me with a hunger I only ever saw on Edward. They came at me and Jasper put his hands on my chest and Emmett squeezed my ass. I wanted them to stop, but their touch there felt so good. Finally, when I heard a sound other than Emmett's snickering and Jasper's awing, I screamed, "STOP!!"

Edward rushed in and when he saw me and his brothers, his golden eyes turned to ice. A snarl rose in his throat and they backed off. I grabbed my clothes and then ran out of the room, with Edward trailing behind me. When I entered Edward's room, he didn't hesitate. He pushed me down on the bed and then kissed me, the fury evident in his kiss. He unclasped my bra and then reached down to pull down my underwear. I let him, but didn't return the stripping. I wanted him to see me, but I didn't want to do the whole deed before we were married. He tried grinding before his pants were off. He stopped suddenly and pushed himself off of me. I stared at him and his eyes were shut tight and his hands were in fists.

"Edward? Are you okay?" I reached to touch his forearm, but he flinched away.

"You don't know how hard it is to resist stripping and forcing you to do something I know you don't want to do, Bella. Get new clothes on and then grab your bags. We are going to see Renee. And hurry before I do something really stupid." New clothes? Must be a new day. With that, he ran from the room and I did as he said. When I went downstairs, Edward was wrestling with his brothers. "How dare you do that! Not only did you feel up my fiancé, you stripped her! I didn't want to see her body!" I was frozen with shock. He didn't want to see my body? Was my body so horrible that he didn't even want to look at it? Before I knew it, I was heading out the back door. I walked over to a bush, not far off the Cullen's property and puked up the food I had eaten. I wanted Edward to enjoy my body. If that meant puking up everything I ate, then I would do it.

Edward came out, calling my name. "Bella? Where are you? Bella?"

I moaned and Edward caught sight of me. "Bella!" he exclaimed when he reached me. "What the hell do you think you're doing?"

"You said you didn't want to see my body. I want you to. I want you to enjoy it when you see it, not be disappointed. So, I will do anything to do that."

He looked horrified. He was speechless. I gazed at him and he glared back at me. "You think I don't like your body?" he asked harshly. I couldn't find my voice, so I just nodded. He shook his head, looking like he could cry. "I didn't want to see your body because I don't want to hurt you. You are just too beautiful for your own good. Your body is amazing! The curves, the hills, the way you move when you walk and run and do anything. It is irresistible!" He held me I his arms and I smiled. I leaned back and kissed him. He put his hands on my neck and turned his head so we could kiss more deeply and more passionately. His tongue slipped into my mouth and it moved with mine. He pulled back and smiled his famous crooked smile that I love so much.

"I don't want to push you – or me for that matter – too far. Come on," he held out his hand for me and I took it, "let's go inside." And with that, we went inside.
