Chapter 2: Places of Greater Intimacy

Chapter 2: Places of Greater Intimacy

I grabbed my suitcase and went into the bathroom. My face was still too heavily made over for my taste but Alice had insisted on dark red lipstick because that was what they were all apparently wearing in the latest issue of Modern Bride. After I wiped the excess makeup from my face I assessed my hair. It actually still had a bit of a wave to it even though we had been in the desert air for almost three hours. I unzipped my jeans and tugged them off and pulled on the silky black robe that I had gotten with the bra and panties set.

When I came out of the bathroom, Edward had closed the blinds, turned down the covers and dimmed the lights. His pale chest was visible peeking out of the sheet that covered him, but he didn't notice me standing in the bathroom doorway until I unsnapped the top snap of my gown.

He stayed still as he watched me; his expression unreadable in the dim lighting. I knew this was the only chance I would have at feeling truly sexy so I took advantage of it. I slowly unsnapped the next few buttons of my robe before taking a few steps toward the bed. When I got close enough to see Edwards face I unsnapped the last one and pulled my silky robe open and let it slide off my arms and onto the floor.

Edwards eyebrows were raised higher on his face then I had ever seen them and his mouth bobbed open and closed before he choked out one word; "Wow."

I smiled mischievously and stumbled (not entirely on purpose) onto the bed and crawled towards him. He cradled me against his body and let out a soft sigh of contentment. I rubbed my face into his cool cheek and mumbled in his ear "Edward…"

I was suddenly on my back and his body covered mine as he ran his lips along my exposed skin. His hands wandered through my hair and then massaged my neck and shoulders as his lips traveled further down my body. As Edward began to kiss my stomach his hands found my breasts and he was not as gentle as before.

He took the whole of my breast into the palm of his hand and massaged in circular motions. The combination of his hands on my breasts and his lips on my skin was almost too much to bear, I bit my lip to keep from crying out but whimpers still escaped my lips.

He laughed to himself when the volume of my responses grew louder and lifted his chin to look at me. I watched him breathlessly as he sat up and stared at my black lace panties. He explored my thighs and hips, his cold hands soothing my hot skin. I watched him shift into a kneeling position and then he did something that surprised me. Edward separated my legs and placed one on either side of his body. He ran his hands up and down the length of my legs and leaned down to kiss my lower stomach.

I felt my body rise in response to meet his lips. My body began to tremble slightly as his fingers traced the inside of my thighs. He massaged my skin in circular motions and the blood rushed to my cheeks as his fingers drew nearer to my crotch. He drew his lips away from my stomach to look at me with his piercing eyes that were hungry in a very different way.

He lifted his hand and let it hover over me for the briefest of moments and then carefully placed his hand between my legs. My eyes closed instinctively, concentrating on the feel of his hand. Edward kept his hand still at first and then slowly began to brush his fingers over the fabric. A moan rose from my throat as he applied more pressure with his hand and began massaging again. He explored me with both hands alternatively brushing his fingers lightly and pressing his hand to random spots. His lips were on my skin again and he traveled in a line downward from my navel.

My eyes flashed open as his lips kissed the fabric of my underwear. He lifted his head and whispered "I have to get used to your smell…this is where it's most fragrant." I watched him breathlessly as his lips moved over the fabric, and each spot his lips touched grew hotter. His breaths were deliberate as he inhaled deeply in between kisses. My breaths grew ragged as I his lips brushed against places of greater intimacy. He held my legs open around his face with his hands gripping my thighs and I felt myself moisten.

His cool breath puffed out of him in a laugh and I could feel it through the fabric. He drew back, his lips turned up in a small smile. He relished for a moment in the effect he had on me before he grew serious once more. He lowered his head again and pressed his nose against my opening. Edwards breathing became very deliberate as he exhaled and inhaled methodically as he nuzzled me.

I moaned with delight basking in the pleasure he was giving me. He kissed his way back up to my face and whispered in my ear. "Now it will be a lot easier for me even though you smell delicious…" He tangled his hands in my hair and flipped over so that I was now on top of him.

I smiled down at his angels face and kissed his collarbone. He skin was cool and sweet and smooth as I scotched down his body and explored his chest with my lips. Edward sighed and then breathed my name "Bella…Bella…Bella…" My face felt flushed as I moved my hand to the top button of his slacks and undid it. He propped himself up onto his elbows but did not protest so I unzipped his zipper as well and tugged. He helped to get them off and I swallowed hard as I looked at him.

I'd never seen him this scantily dressed before. His legs were pale and slender and I could now see a trail of light auburn hair just below his navel. I studied his face for a moment assessing that he was calm and prepared as I moved my hand down to his white cotton boxer briefs. He flinched when I first touched him but began to relax as I stroked him.

I knelt beside him as my hands massaged his thighs and when I ran my fingers over the length of him I distinctly saw him shiver. He was moaning and whimpering and I felt him harden beneath my fingers. I massaged him with one hand and leaned over him to kiss his stomach. I smiled inwardly when I heard him moan "Mmmmm…" ever so softly. My lips moved past his navel and this time he didn't stop me.

I could feel his coldness through the fabric as my lips found his greatest place of intimacy. "Oh…Bella…Bella…Bella…" He moaned my name over and over as I kissed him softly. I mouthed his entire length even daring to softly bite at him and his hips bucked involuntarily. I smiled inwardly to myself and let my fingers play with the waistband of his underwear. I knew as greatly distracted as he was, Edward would soon object. Only a few seconds after I began to tug his boxer briefs downward he stopped me.

"Bella, not too fast Bell-slow down love…" He coaxed through labored breaths. He took my shoulders and pulled me towards him, I did not object; I missed his face. I molded my body beside his and kissed his neck until he caught his breath.

He turned to face me. "I love you Bella," he said. "I love you more than I've ever loved anything in this entire world…and you just gave me the best feeling that I've ever had…" His gorgeous golden eyes seemed to pierce my heart.

"Dido," I said rather pathetically.

He laughed, "Well I'll bet it's about to get even better…" he said; his face very serious. Edward then placed his hand between my breasts and ran it slowly down the center of my body and then back up my side sending shivers through me. "That's a very lovely brassier you have there" his voice oozed as he caressed my breast in his palm.

"Edward…" I whispered as his hands traveled to the clasp. He fingers seemed to fumble slightly and I couldn't believer that he really wasn't perfect at everything. "Here," I said reaching back and unclasping it myself.

I sat up and he stared up at me as I began to slowly pull the straps off my shoulders. His lips parted slightly as I let my bra fall into my lap. He stared at me for a long moment taking in a part of my body that no man had ever seen before. Edward reached his hand upward to touch me and his eyes met mine as his hand reached my skin and a small gasp rose from my lips.

He misread me and drew his hand away grumbling "I hate that I can't touch you without freezing you…"

"No Edward, it's okay…here" I took his hand in mine and placed it on my bare breast again. It was cold but lovely; it made my skin tingle. I closed my eyes and both his hands moved onto me; touching, massaging, exploring…He pushed me down gently to lie on my back and his lips reached my neck and slowly traveled to my breasts.

One of his hands traveled down my body massaging my crotch while the other massaged the breast his lips weren't kissing. I felt as if we were back at square one again and I was going to pass out from the intensity. My heart was hammering like mad (possibly because his lips were so close to it). My body began to tingle and I felt heat burning in the center of my body where he was rhythmically massaging me now. My breath quickened and as Edward bit the sensitive skin around my nipple I felt my body suddenly tighten and my opening contracted.

In a way I felt like I might pass out and at the same time I felt that all my senses were heightened; was this an orgasm? Edward answered my question by moving his lips to my ear and he spoke with the trace of a chuckle "Did you enjoy that my Bella?"

I smiled still catching my breath "Mmm Hmm…"

He chuckled again and kissed my neck and then lay beside me. I tangled my fingers through his hair and ran my other hand down his body and tugged at his underwear. Edward carefully pulled my body on top of his and placed his hands on either side of my face. He kissed my lips ever so softly and then ran his hands down my body and embraced me.

I straddled him and shifted slightly so that I could feel his erection against me. The feel of the cold smooth skin of his chest against my bare breasts was so pleasurable I barely wanted to move but he began kissing me deeply and then rolled me over so that he was once again on top.

Edwards's hands moved lovingly over my breasts and he cooed in my ear "I love you Bella."

"I love you too Edward," I whispered back and his hands moved down my body to my panties and tugged. I froze and Edwards's eyes met mine and he grinned sheepishly as he pulled my underwear down past my hips, past my knees, and my ankles; until he tossed them off the bed and looked down the entire length of my body.

I knew I was blushing the most I ever had in my life, but somehow I didn't mind it. The thought of Edward seeing me completely naked had scared me in the past but now I felt excitement bubble up inside of me. He bit his lip as his eyes met mine again, "I think I'd better prepare you before we try the real thing," he murmured as if embarrassed. He took both of my legs again and placed them on either side of his body. Edwards hands crept up and over my thighs, "It's gonna feel really cold," he said vaguely right before he touched me.
