Rated M for the usual.....I don't own anything...and look away if you aren't of age! Now back to it...

The girls and I laughed and talked on the short walk to the lobby, like we were old high school buddies. I was really beginning to like them, and I hadn't even known them 24 hours.

When we walked into the lobby I felt my stomach twist in knots, as I saw Edward right away. He and Jasper and Emmett were sitting around a glass table sipping cocktails. My breath caught in my throat. He looked so damn pretty. I hope no one heard that. The boys stood as they saw us approaching. Jasper nudged Edward and smirked at him.

"Ladies, all of you look absolutely stunning," Jasper said as we made it to them.

"So, uh looks like it's just going to be us tonight. Mom says she got heat stroke and needs to lie down. Personally, I think she just drank too much," Emmett said and nudged me, "So Dad's staying with her."

Ok, I had to admit I was a bit relieved. I didn't really feel comfortable around Carlisle and Esme because they were so classy and formal, and I'm just a nobody from Nowheresville, USA.

Alice and Jasper and Emmett and Rosalie were all paired up as be began walking to the restaurant in the plaza just beyond the lobby. They were laughing and talking with each other and I was feeling nervous. I didn't know what to do next.

Edward smiled at me and stuck out his arm for me to take, "Shall we?"

I smiled and took his arm.

He cleared his throat, "You look gorgeous, Bella." This man was going to be the death of me. It seemed like he always knew what to do and say. He had the confidence that I lacked.

I laughed, "Whatever."

He sighed and shook his head, "You don't take compliments well, do you?" I thought about this for a moment. I had never been really good at receiving compliments. I basically thought people were blowing smoke up my ass most of the time. But for some reason with Edward, it felt sincere.

"I guess not," I said and shrugged my shoulders.

"Well, could you at least try for me?" he joked.

I giggled, "Yes. Thank you for the compliment, Edward. And you look very handsome this evening."

"Thank you, Bella. See? Doesn't that feel better?" he asked and took my hand. He surprised my by taking it into his and placing a small kiss on top of it. His lips were so soft and warm and when they came in contact with my skin, it shot right to my core. Um, yes. You just made it all better. All I could do was shake my head.

"Cullen, party of six," Alice said to the hostess as we entered the quaint little Japanese restaurant. I forgot that I had never asked Alice her last name. Cullen. The hostess stared at her wide-eyed and hurriedly collected the menus.

She led us to the back, where there was a small private dining room. Edward pulled out my chair and settled in next to me.

"I hope you like sushi, Bella. I forgot to ask," Alice said quietly across the table.

"No, no. I love it," I replied.

"Is there anything in particular that you like? We usually just order a bunch of rolls for the table," Edward asked as I scanned the menu.

"Anything but uni, it grosses me out. Other than that, I'm good."

Edward laughed, "Me too. Alice loves it though."

"I do not, brother!" she said and threw her napkin at Edward.

We ordered drinks and dinner, and laughed about anything and everything, and nothing in particular. After we ate a bit and did some sake bombs, I was beginning to feel better. I kept stealing glances at Edward while we talked and ate. I couldn't help it, he was just so freaking gorgeous.

"What are you looking at?" He leaned in and whispered in my ear. Busted. I could feel his warm breath on my neck and his stubble scraped gently over my cheek. It did very bad things to my girly parts. My cheeks flushed and I spit out the first thing that came to mind.

"Oh, um, you have a piece of sushi rice on the side of your face," I said and swiped the phantom rice away. Smooth, Swan. I was like a high school girl who didn't know how to act around a boy. I knew was a bit out of practice, but this was just embarrassing.

"Oh, well thanks for looking out for me," he said and smirked. Oh, shit. He had to have known I was lying. I must've been looking at him like I wanted to eat him.

We had another sake bomb and talked some more, and I felt like I was going to fall down. I was definitely drunk. But the more I drank, the more I got comfortable around Edward, and we began teasing each other like kids. He threw bits of paper in my hair, and I threw a piece of sushi at him.

"Edward, it's going to take me hours to find all those little pieces of paper," I joked and began pulling them out.

He laughed.

"Here, let me help you," he said and started picking the little pieces out of my hair. His fingers grazed my scalp for a moment, and I had to stifle a moan. I wanted his hands all over me, and quick. I had never felt this kind of attraction to someone I had just met. This was all new to me but in my drunken state, I knew exactly what I wanted.

"Well, guys, I'm going to have to call it a night," Jasper said and stood up quickly.

"Me too," Rosalie said and yawned.

I may have been drunk, but I knew they were trying to leave us alone. Everyone got up and went outside to say our goodbyes for the evening.

"Bella. Call me in the morning. I need some spa time and so do you," Alice slurred as she and Jasper walked away.

"What's that supposed to mean?" I asked as she waved.

"Bye Bella! See you tomorrow!" Rosalie called and waved. Emmett had thrown her over his shoulder and they were making their way down the path near the lagoon.

That left Edward and I alone. I was swaying back and forth like an idiot, and his eyes were red and glazed over.

"Well I'm officially drunk," he said and leaned up against the wall.

"Yeah, I think I am, too. But we're supposed to be, we're on vacation," I said and leaned up against the wall next to him. My drunken brain was willing him to kiss me. Come on, Edward, kiss me. I need your soft, warm lips on mine.

"Yeah I guess you're right," he said and leaned over a bit closer. That's it. A little closer.

"So in that case, you want to join me another drink?" he asked and pushed off the wall. Damn.

"Everything's closed I think," I said and looked around the plaza, "But luckily for you, I have some wine in my room." My heart began thumping faster, because that was a total invite for us to be alone together. In my room. And my room just so happened to have a bed, and other surfaces where we could-… Ok, where the hell did that come from?

He looked at me up and down with those intense green eyes and I jumped when he reached out and touched me. He ran the tips of his fingers from my shoulder, down my forearm, until he reached my hand and took a hold of it. I blushed and got goose bumps in 90 degree weather.

"Hmm," he said, his voice low, "What kind of wine is it?"

I had no idea. My brain couldn't function correctly at the moment. "Um, it's, uh…you know, the kind from grapes?"

He took a step forward closing the gap between us and chuckled, "Great. That's my favorite kind. Lead the way."

Brazen Bella from Seattle one, Shy Bella from Forks, zero.

Edward squeezed my hand as I led him down the path toward OT# 1. Alice showed me where the elevator was earlier, so I pushed the button repeatedly until the doors opened. I stepped inside and pressed the button to my floor. The doors opened, and I led him down the hallway and had to let go of his hand when I fumbled through my clutch looking for my key card.

I opened the door to my room and told him to come in. I felt like I was about to explode I wanted him so badly. Edward walked into the room and opened the sliding glass door to the patio and stepped outside. I put my clutch down, and fumbled with the corkscrew and the two glasses provided by the hotel.

"You have a great view from here," he said as he stepped back inside and closed the sheers.

"How do you know? It's dark," I said as I handed him a glass of red wine.

"Oh, I can just tell by the sound of the waves," he said as he took the cup of wine from me. He took a sip and put it on the side table and sat on the edge of my bed. He patted the spot next to him, and I walked over and sat close to him.

All I could hear was my heart thumping and the sound of the crashing waves in the background. The anticipation was killing me second by second. He lifted my chin and looked into my eyes, "Do you know how beautiful you are?"

I looked down into my glass and shook my head no.

"Well you are. And you're also charming and smart and honest," he said and began stroking my hair, "and the last thing I want to do is take advantage of you."

My eyes shot up to his. This kind of pissed me off. I thought we were both clear on what we wanted to go down here.

"Edward, it's not taking advantage if I want you to."

"But Bella, we're both kind of drunk. I just don't want you to wake up in the morning with any regrets." Shit. I should have never put myself out there like that. I knew it. I just fucking knew it.

I scooted away from him and crossed my arms, "You mean you don't want to wake up with any regrets. But I can assure you that I'm lucid enough to know when I'm being rejected," I scoffed, "Just…thank you for being nice about it I guess." I almost wanted to cry. You're such and idiot, Bella.

"Is that what you think? You think I'm letting you down easy?" He looked into my eyes questioningly.

"Aren't you?"

He moved closer to me and stroked the side of my face, "God, no. I was just making sure you knew that I respect you."

I leaned into his touch.

"Just tell me what you want, Bella."

"Kiss me," I whispered with no hesitation.

My breathing picked up as he looked from my lips to my eyes. He cupped my face and leaned in, and I closed my eyes. He pressed his soft lips into mine, and parted them, slipping his warm tongue into my mouth. I moaned at the contact his tongue made with mine. I felt him smile against my lips.

This was unlike any other kisses I'd ever experienced. All the hair was standing up on the back of my neck, and invisible electricity shot straight to my core. It was what I would imagine being struck by lightning would be like.

I put my hands into his hair and pulled him closer. My kisses were now becoming more urgent and wanting. I took his bottom lip between my teeth and sucked. He groaned. Oh, he likes that. He stood up slowly, and I went with him, never breaking the kiss. He wrapped his arms around my back and pulled me close to him. He was so warm and I could feel his chest heaving as it was pressed against mine. I could also feel his excitement pressed up against my hip. He pulled my hair back and placed small open mouthed kisses on my shoulder.

"I want you," he whispered.

"Please," I whispered back, gasping for air. I wanted to be with this man…this…almost stranger…more than I'd ever wanted to be intimate with anyone in my entire life. He kissed a trail up my neck and swirled his tongue on the skin behind my ear. Then, he bit my flesh lightly. This new sensation caused me to throw my head back and moan loudly. He was very good.

I unfastened the buttons on his shirt, and slid it off of his shoulders. I kissed him again, sliding my fingers up his chest and down his stomach muscles. He reached behind me, and unzipped my dress slowly while I worked my mouth and tongue on his neck. He pushed it down off of my body, until it was just a crumpled pile at my feet. I kicked the dress to the side, and realized I was standing there wearing only my black lacy thong and my stilettos. For some reason I didn't feel a bit of self-consciousness.

"God, you are so beautiful," he whispered as he looked over my exposed torso. He brought one of his hands up to my breast and began massaging it while he kissed that damned spot behind my ear. His voice...everything...was making me hyper aware of the wetness that was beginning to seep into my panties. He pushed me back gently until the backs of my knees reached the bed.

"Lie down, baby." Baby? I'll do whatever you say.

I kicked my shoes off and fell backward onto the bed with my legs hanging over the side. I felt him run his the tips of his fingers softly up my calf and up to my thigh. I propped myself up on my elbows so I could get a better look at what he was doing. He looked into my eyes and bit his lower lip while he hooked his fingers into the lace and pulled them down my legs slowly. I owed Anglea my life right now for forcing me into taking her appointment with her waxer before I left.

He totally froze once my panties were off, and I lay there in all my naked bare glory.

"I want to touch you. Please?" he whispered. I'm not sure why he was asking if he could touch me, like I would ever say no.

I shook my head yes, because he could do whatever the hell he wanted with me.

He used the back side of two fingers to slowly stroke the soft, bare skin on the outside of my sex. It seemed like in the short amount of time we had been together, he liked doing things painfully slow just to torture me. I wanted his fingers on me, in me...whatever. He just needed to do something before I exploded from wanting.

He dropped to his knees and slid his fingers up my folds and massaged my most sensitive spot, but only for a moment.

"You're so wet for me already," he said under his breath and removed his fingers. He placed both of his hands on the insides of my thighs and gently coaxed me to spread my legs wider for him as he continued to stare up into my eyes intensely. He took one long, slow lick up my folds, causing every muscle in my stomach to tense. He made a noise that sounded like satisfaction,"Mmm..."

"UHHhh.." I whimpered out, not able to help it. I think the last time someone had been down there like that, I was a senior in college. I jumped back from his mouth, a bit shocked.

"What's wrong?" He asked concern written all over his face.

"Um...nothing, it just no one has...well...it's just been a long time, and I forgot-"

"How good it feels?" he asked finishing my thought process for me.

I nodded, and he smiled up at me.

He grabbed my hips and took another lick, but this time he sucked my clit into his mouth and swirled his tongue around it. I almost jumped off the bed, it felt so heavenly.

"Shit!" I whispered and jolted. I couldn't look anymore and my head fell back onto the bed. He placed his hand on my left breast and began to massage and pull my nipple. He continued to suck and circle my clit with his tongue while I writhed and moaned. He took his free hand and slid two fingers inside me,and began to pump furiously. My hips began to move on their own accord, matching the pace he had created with his fingers. I felt the delicious sensation begin to build, and I moved faster against his hand. All of I sudden his mouth was off of me and his long fingers were not present inside of me any longer.

When I looked up to see why he had stopped, he was fumbling to get his belt and his pants off. I could see how long and thick his erection was as it strained against his white boxer-briefs. He had a small packet in his hand and ripped it open with his teeth. He slid his undergarments down, and my eyes widened at the sight of him naked. His body was solid was beautiful, and so was his cock. It was long, thick and hard, and I would get down on my knees and beg him to put it inside me if he asked me to.

"Edward, please," I whispered and squirmed. I could hardly take it anymore. He was hovering over me in an instant, and i noticed he had rolled the condom on already. He settled himself between my legs, and I wrapped mine around his waist.

" I couldn't wait anymore," he whispered and kissed my lips chastely,"tell me what you want."

"I want.."I was not very good at vocalizing what I wanted, I wasn't used to being asked. But I could tell that he would like to hear it.

"Say it," he whispered. I could feel the tip of his cock pressing against my entrance. All I had to do was give him the word.

"I want you inside me, Edward."

With that, he pushed into me slowly. I gasped, and he moaned.

"Fuck. You are so...tight..." he said and pushed all the way into me. The moment when he filled me completely, I cried out into the quiet room.

He buried his head into the crook of my neck while he moved. It was very slow at first, him getting used to my body, and that so I could get used to his.

"You feel so good, baby," he said and kissed my passionately, while pumping in and out of me slowly. I could taste myself on him, and it was strangely erotic.

He stood up straighter and threw my leg over his shoulder. He picked up the pace of his thrusts, and I could feel myself tightening again, already.

"Edward, please. You're going to make me..."

He slipped a hand between where our bodies were connected and pressed down on my clit.

"What? Tell me, Bella."

"You're going to make me come, Edward. Faster, please!" He moaned loudly and pumped his cock in and out of me furiously, and rubbed my clit with his thumb. The warmness surrounded me, and I felt like I was floating, as the pleasure shot through my whole body.

"UhhhhAhhhhhUhhh...holy shit!" I cried out as I spasmed around his length. He slowed but didn't stop as I came down from my high. I looked up at him and he down at me. He smiled that damn disarming crooked smile while he slowly pulled out of me. I looked down and realized he had not finished yet, and it excited the hell out of me.

"Tell me what you want, Edward," I whispered, feeling brave.

"I want whatever you want Bella," he said without hesitation and smiled. I nodded my head, and jumped up off of the bed.

I pulled the covers on the bed back as he watched me,"Lie down," I said and pushed him down onto the bed. I had an idea, and I was hoping he would like it. I didn't know if my braveness was due to the effects of alcohol, or if I was becoming generally comfortable with Edward. I pushed him down onto the bed and straddled his lap. I gripped his length in my hand, and lowered myself onto him, slowly.

"Is this what you want? You have to tell me." I said while I started easing myself on and off of him.

"Oh, Bella," he said,"fuck yes this is what I want."

"You are so goddamn sexy," he said as he gripped my hips. I knew he had a great view from where he was, and I was smiling smugly, because I knew I was causing the moans of pleasure he was making. I moved up and down slowly, back and forth and couldn't help by cry out when he began thrusting his hips up to meet mine.

"Kiss me," he said and stopped his movements. He sat up a bit and gripped my hips and looked into my eyes," Beautiful," he said and assaulted my mouth with his. He pumped up into me fast, and I could feel the tightening again. I moved my hips with his,"Fuck!" I cried out against his lips.

"Come with me, Bella," he said and stroked my hair.

I looked down into his eyes breathing heavily, and he clenched his jaw tightly. He thrusted up, and I pushed myself down, until we cried out at the same time, staring intensely into each other's eyes. He grabbed the back of my head and kissed me deeply while we came down. What the hell was that?

I was gasping for air and lifted myself off of him. I was in total shock. That was the most intense thing that had ever happened to me. I mean, it was the best sex I had ever had and all, but it was the connection that we shared that was the most shocking. It never felt like it was just about getting off. I had a very intense attraction to him and for some reason he to me, and everything about it just felt...right. Then the fear and doubt washed over me. I was never going to see him again. I mean how possible was it? He lived in New York and I lived in Seattle. Opposite ends of the country. It could never work.

I was filled with a bit, well ok...a lot of sadness as I watched his naked backside as he walked into the bathroom. I felt a tear slip down my cheek and wiped it away quickly. I had never reacted like this after sex. But I'd also never met an amazing guy to have a one night stand with either. I guess I would just have to be satisfied with the wonderful experience. I didn't want to think about it anymore.

My legs were like jelly, and all I wanted to do aftermy realization was sleep. I crawled into the middle of the bed and pulled the covers up over myself. Edward, still naked, grabbed two bottles of water out of the mini fridge and put them on the side table. I turned over and stared at the wall, sure he was going to put his clothes back on and leave.

"Have room for me?" he asked. He's staying?

"Of course," I laughed and scooted to the other side to make room for him to lie next to me.

He turned off the light, lifted the covers and slid in while I continued to wallow in my sadness.

"Where do you think you're going?" he asked and pulled me to his chest. I splayed out across him and he hugged me tightly and buried his face in my hair. I sighed.

"Goodnight, baby," he said as his breathing began to even out. I squeezed my eyes shut and hoped he didn't feel the next traitor tear I just cried for him and for myself fall onto his chest.

"Goodnight, Edward."

I absentmindedly traced my finger across his collarbone and sniffled, hoping that I didn't just dream all of this. Within minutes I was asleep.

Thank you to my one reviewer! I think I'm going back to bed now.....
