LEMONS!

The Cullens get settled in…. and more.

BPOV

We were on the plane heading to Alaska. I wasn't as nervous this time but still couldn't help being a little nervous. I had layers upon layers of clothes on and gloves and a scarf. December in Alaska is quite cold and that's putting it mildly.

We got to their house around 8-9pm or so. I wasn't exactly sure. We pulled up to the house and here we were again.

Edward helped me out of the car and took my bag. I could have carried it but nope, Edward insisted. Sometimes I don't want to fight him on it but I don't want him to think that I expect him to do it for me. That's why on days I don't want to say something, I smile and lean into him, to show him my affection and thanks for what he's doing. I don't expect things from people; I just don't want to assume people will do things for me and then end up getting disappointed if they don't. It's better to want to do things for yourself and then be grateful for when someone does something nice for you.

We walked in and it was as beautiful as I remembered it. Everyone was there to greet us, including Tanya.

She was wearing a, so to say, 'slutty' outfit. Here we go. She just won't give up will she? Unless she has a boyfriend, which would be great. Then maybe she'd leave us alone but who knows with her. The things she comes up with in her head are ridiculous.

"Hi Bella, how are you?" she asked as she walked over to me, pretty much flashing her beautiful body in my face. Sure Alice has me wearing tight jeans, which she said 'makes my ass look great,' a nice shirt, and designer boots, she, however, had something on that exposed a little more… skin.

"Hi Tanya, I'm doing good. And yourself?"

"Good, thanks."

She put her hand on my back and guided me aside. Edward was saying hello to Kate and Carmen but I could see him looking over.

"So I see that you're still with Edward?"

"Obviously." I couldn't help let out a laugh and I saw Edward do the same.

"I just mean, from our last conversation, I thought you'd consider the alternative."

"Oh right, that. Well, Edward told me what really happened and I believe him so I'm not worrying about whether or not you two had sex before… which I know you haven't." I was calm about it. I'm not going to satisfy her with doubtfulness.

I looked over to Edward and he looked mad. I secretly put my hand out to basically tell him to calm down.

"Okay Bella, if you say so. I'm just saying look at the facts and realize the truth."

"Oh, I have looked at the facts and I know the truth, so don't worry about me. In fact, you don't have to worry about me at all, I love my life and I'm quite happy with the way things are. You telling me lies won't make me question my relationship with Edward. So please, let this go and lets enjoy the holiday."

She nodded. "We'll see." And she watched me walk away toward Edward.

When I got to Edward I hugged him and stayed at his side.

"Don't listen to Tanya, Bella."

"Don't worry I'm not. Actually, I find it quite funny. I get excited when she wants to talk to me. I look forward to what she's going to come up with next." I started to laugh.

"Well, as long as you are okay with it."

"Entirely."

I leaned up; I grabbed his neck and began kissing him. He slipped his tongue into my mouth as I did his. I moaned and he pulled my body against his. He was sliding his hand down my back and right before he was ready to cup my ass someone cleared their throat.

We opened our eyes and looked over. Everyone in the house was staring at us. I quickly let go of Edward and stood there, fixing my shirt. Man, was my face red.

It was silent except Emmett. "And so it begins. I've got to go charge my camera."

Everyone began attending to their own conversations again.

"Edward, I'm going to go put my stuff away. Tell Esme she doesn't have to make me anything. She is on vacation too so I don't want her to take care of me. I brought some snacks I can eat incase they didn't have time to go shopping."

"Bella, Esme is happy to cook for you. You will not eat a snack for dinner. And they did go shopping so you don't have to worry about that."

I sighed. "Well, I'm just going to make a peanut butter and jelly sandwich. It's late and I don't want to eat a full meal, or maybe a half a sandwich. I don't want to get a stomachache. I don't know. I guess I'll see." I paused. "I need to stop rambling."

He just looked at me and shook his head.

"I'm going to go take my suitcase upstairs. And I can do it myself Edward. You just stay down here with your family."

"Are you sure?"

"Yes. Positive."

"Okay."

He left the room to see his family. I took the suitcase and rolled it to the stairs. I started picking it up to rest it on each step. Damn this is so freakin' heavy. What the hell is in this? We're here for 3 days. I kept making a grunting noise each time I picked it up on a step. I felt like I was working up a sweat. I knew Edward would probably hear my grunting but I didn't want him to come help me.

It literally took me about 10 minutes to get up the stairs. I finally got up there and I sat on the top step panting. I caught my breath and was ready to stand up when I saw Edward at the bottom of the stairs smirking.

"And what are you smirking at?"

"Nothing."

"Did you see me this whole time trying to carry this unnecessarily heavy suitcase up these stairs?"

"Maybe."

I sighed. I couldn't help but laugh to myself.

"You're the one that said you didn't want help," he reminded me.

"I'm starting to regret it." I paused. "But I'm good now, I can roll it to our bedroom."

We got to the bedroom a few seconds after that.

"You know, I kind of worked up a sweat carrying that up the stairs. I was thinking about taking a shower…"

I started to undo my boots and put them on the floor. Then I took of my shirt and threw it on the chair. I unbuttoned my jeans and slowly pushed them down. I saw that Edward was watching me undress. I walked into the bathroom with the door-cracked open. First I threw out my bra and then threw out my panties.

"Oh wow. This shower is quite big. It's as if it was made for two people. Oh well, I guess I'll just have to use it alone." Next thing I know he's behind me grabbing me, pressing himself against my ass.

"Oh, Mr. Cullen, have you decided that you need a shower too?"

"Yes I have."

"Well, it's a good thing this shower is so big."

I turned around and smiled at him and he put my legs around his waist and took me into the shower.

He sucked on my neck and I put my fingers through his hair.

"Oh god, Edward."

I tightened my grip around his waist, bringing him closer to me. He let out a moan.

I loosened up my grip on him and as he was kissing my neck I reached my hand down and started stroking him. He jumped some but then started kissing me again.

"Bella, that feels amazing."

He put my one leg down. I was stroking it right where my pussy was. As I'm doing it the tip kept touching my clit. I couldn't stop gasping.

He grabbed it and started really rubbing it against my clit. I let out a loud moan. He started laughing some, "Shh… Bella they'll hear you."

I giggled. "I forgot."

He pushed against me and humped me to where his cock was riding up and down my clit. I started shaking some.

"Oh my god Edward, I need you in me before I cum."

He lifted up my legs and put my legs around his waist.

He leaned me against the wall and slammed into me. I let out a small scream and then covered my mouth laughing.

I gasped and moaned each time he'd thrust in me. He couldn't stop groaning. He did this for about a minute or two and then I had to tell him…

"Edward, please, faster."

He looked at me but didn't stop thrusting. "Already my love?"

I giggled. "Yeah, my skin is getting pruny and it's been over 30 hours since we last had sex. A little too long for me." I giggled again. "I guess since I've got a taste of what we were missing and now I can't get enough."

"I feel the same way. Hold on."

I gripped onto him and he started pounding into me. I rested my forehead on his shoulder, moaning with each thrust.

"Edward I'm gonna cum."

He let go of my one leg and started rubbing my clit. My lower half of my body started shaking and I grabbed his hand. I squeezed my eyes shut and moaned.

He then picked my leg back up and slammed into me a few times until we both came together. He leaned into me against the wall. We were both panting.

"Wow."

"Yes, wow." I smiled at him and he smiled back.

After a few minutes we our breathing went back to normal.

"I'm going to wash my hair and shave and all that good stuff."

"Okay love, I'll go get dressed and wait for you."

I washed my hair with my strawberry shampoo. I couldn't believe what we just did. It was amazing. I couldn't stop smiling. I was in the shower for about 10 minutes since I had to shave some. I know Edward didn't care if I didn't shave in certain places but I feel better if I do. Sure sometimes I don't because I forgot or was too lazy but I knew he didn't mind.

I wore my boy shorts and tank top. I walked out of the bathroom.

"Edward, I only have my boy shorts. Do you have boxers or something I can throw over this for when we go downstairs?"

"Yeah, I have these sweat pants you can wear."

"I would complain but I know you find me attractive it them so I'm fine with it."

I smiled at him. "Yeah, I do." And he kissed me.

We went downstairs. "I'm going to make my sandwich."

"Do you want me to come with you love?"

"No, no. I want you to go spend time with your family. You see me every day, you don't get to see them often." I smiled at him. Of course I wanted him to come with me but I don't want to be the girlfriend who drags him away from his family.

"Are you sure?"

"Yeah. I just… I don't want to be that type of girlfriend that disassociates their boyfriend away from his family. You go talk to them. We'll have the rest of the night together."

He seemed like he wanted to say something against what I had said but he let it go.

"Okay. I'll see you in a bit." He kissed my forehead and left.

I walked into the kitchen. They had grape jelly and crunchy peanut butter – just what I like. And I was hoping they had milk because it's best with milk. They did which made me happy. I felt like a little kid.

I finished my sandwich and sat at the kitchen table. Then Tanya walked in. Oh geez.

"Hey Tanya. What are you up to?"

"Nothing. I didn't see you out in the living room so I thought maybe you were in here." Is she implying that I'm fat? Whatever.

"Oh yeah. I haven't eaten since this morning so I'm kind of hungry."

"Did you get settled in alright?"

"Yeah. Thank you."

"I noticed that you got a shower. Did Edward too?"

"Um, yeah. I thought I'd get one to be comfortable for bed. I guess Edward decided to get one too."

"Together?"

I knew she was going to ask that. "Tanya that is private."

"I don't think it's private if it's in my house."

I looked at her. "Please Tanya, lets not start anything.'

"I'm just saying. It's my house, I should be able to know what's going on."

"I will tell you about something if I feel it is necessary but this is something I'm not discussing with you. If you truly have a problem, discuss it with Edward." I paused. "Are you going to be checking in on Emmett and Rosalie on this topic because believe me, if sex in your house is your concern, you definitely should put them at the top of your list." I couldn't help but laugh to myself.

She gave me a snobby look and left the kitchen.

I finished my sandwich and almost all my milk but of course I spilled some down the front of me. I looked like I peed myself. I'm so freakin' clumsy.

I did my dishes, put them away, and then headed out to the living room. Edward was still talking to family so I decided to head out to the sunroom to look at the scenery. It was dark out but they had spotlights that showed some of their ground. Plus the moon helped the lighting. I took off my sweat pants because they were all wet in the front. I still had my boy shorts on so at least it's something. I grabbed a blanket that was on the chair and wrapped it around me. I sat on the one sofa and played with my hair.

I wasn't trying to be anti-social. It's just that I know if I went out there Edward would be attentive to me and I want him to spend time with his family. But then I thought that maybe he wants me to spend time with his family because soon they'll be my family.

I started walking out so I could run upstairs, put something on, and then go into the living room. But as I was turning the corner I bumped into a man. I fell over onto the floor. It hurt because it was like I walked into a wall. I looked up. I didn't recognize him.

"Oh, I'm sorry," the man said.

"Oh, um, it's okay. I should have watched where I was going." I paused. I noticed my legs and everything were showing. He had the blanket in his hand and tried helping me up. I took his hand and brought me up straight.

"Are you a friend of Carmen's or Eleazar's?" I began to walk back over to the sofa. He followed and sat next to me.

"Yes. I am a neighbor. My name is Anthony. The houses tend to be spread out here but I'm their closest neighbor."

"Well, I'm Bella. Did you come to meet the Cullens?"

"Yeah. I can't make it to the party tomorrow so I thought I would come by tonight and say hello to everyone."

"Well that's very nice of you." I wanted to grab the blanket from behind him and put it over me but I didn't want him to think I felt uncomfortable. But truthfully I did feel uncomfortable because I saw he kept looking at my legs.

"So how do you know the Denali clan?"

"Oh I traveled up here with the Cullens to visit."

"Oh really?"

"Yeah."

There was an awkward pause that lasted for almost a minute.

"Oh, Bella, you have something on your in your hair." I thought maybe some peanut butter or something from my sandwich.

I tried looking up to see it but he started stroking my hair.

I was completely uncomfortable.

"Um, I'm going to get back to the living room."

"Wait." He grabbed my arm as I was getting up. "Don't go." He wouldn't let go.

"Please. Let me go."

"But we just started talking." He tried pulling my arm to bring me back down to the couch.

"Anthony, let me go please." I was trying to yank myself away.

"Bella, just sit back down so we can talk." He was getting a little forceful. He was getting annoyed since I wouldn't sit back down.

"No. I don't want to! Let me go!" I yelled. I was trying to yank always from his hold. It made no difference. It was as if it was pointless; he was a hundred times stronger than I was.

All of a sudden Edward was in the doorway.

"Hey! Anthony! What the hell do you think you are doing?" He had fire in his eyes. He finally let me go. I was rubbing my arm. It hurt some. I quickly walked over to Edward.

"Nothing Edward. Bella was out here and we sat and talked."

"Yeah, I'm sure. Your thoughts are showing other intentions."

"She's the one wearing no pants."

I cut in. "Excuse me, I had a blanket on and when you bumped into me it came off and then you put it behind you so I couldn't reach for it."

"Yeah, yeah. Tease."

All of a sudden Emmett and Jasper were in the doorway. Emmett put me behind him.

Edward got in his face. "Anthony, I think it would be wise if you left. We are enjoying the holiday and we don't need any problems."

He looked over and saw Emmett and Jasper. "I can see I'm out numbered here so I'll just say goodbye and leave."

He walked past me and was about to say something to me when Jasper stood in front of me. Jasper sternly said, "Goodbye Anthony."

He just shook his head and left.

Emmett and Jasper nodded and left the room.

"I'm sorry Edward. Clumsy me spilled milk on my pants and so I took them off. I grabbed the blanket but then bumped into him when I planned on joining you in the living room."

"Bella, no need for apologies. I don't care if you were out here naked, if you wanted to be away from him then he should have let you go."

"I know." I paused, "Now, if you want to make things better, how about you take me upstairs so I can get actual pants on. I'm freezing!"

He laughed, swooped me up, and took me upstairs.

I put other sweats on. "Edward, I'm going to go get water, say goodnight to everyone, and then come back up."

"I'll come with you. I want to say goodnight to everyone as well."

"Okay."

I headed in the kitchen and got my glass of water. As I was heading out Tanya came in.

"I heard you had a little mishap with Anthony."

"It was nothing. Just a miscommunication, that's all." That's what I'm labeling it because I just got here and I don't want to already start problems.

"First John at Halloween and now Anthony. Do you like to be a tease?"

"Hey! I am not a tease!"

"Geez. Calm down Bella."

"You're the one calling me things that I am not."

"I'm just telling you what it looks like."

"Well, that's the difference between assumptions and the truth. You may assume that I'm a tease because these guys were coming onto me but I didn't, so to say, 'ask for it.' I have no desire what so ever to attract any man other than Edward." I paused. "Maybe you're just jealous."

"Please, Bella, jealous of you? You've got to be kidding?"

"Lets look at the facts. I have Edward and you don't. I have been hit on by guys here yet you haven't. You don't understand how your beauty outweighs my imperfect human appearance. Is that the truth or just an assumption?"

"A definite assumption. It's obvious that I'm prettier than you and you're just an easy target so that's why the men hit on you."

"Tanya, I don't care about other men. I only care about Edward. Attention is something I most certainly dislike. So don't think that is my motive here because it definitely is not."

"Bella. Just accept that I'm beautiful and you're not and that you're a tease and use that to get attention."

Before I could respond she walked out. "What a bitch." I hope she heard me. I couldn't help but giggle to myself.

Edward walked in, "What's so funny?"

"You know what is. You heard."

"I'd rather hear it from you."

"Well Tanya was tormenting me again calling me a tease and what not and so I called her a bitch." I laughed again.

He looked angry about the tease remark.

"But don't worry Edward. I let snapped back at her. I told her she's just jealous because I have you. She's mad because she can't understand why you chose me, a human, over her, a beautiful vampire. And she said I try and get attention but I made it clear that's the last thing I want. She left mad. Mission accomplished."

He still looked mad.

"Edward, I know I'm not a tease. Well, I mean I like to tease you but you get what I'm saying. And even so, I don't care what she thinks. I care more about what you and your family thinks. I know technically Tanya is part of that family but anymore she is the least that I worry about. She seems to have me labeled already so I don't care."

"Mm... I'm glad you showed her whose boss. I did hear some of your conversation but I didn't intervene because I thought you'd like to tell her off yourself. Oh, and you can tease me anytime."

"Good to know. And just to let you know, you can handle the guys and let me take care of the girls."

"Okay. Deal."

"Unless the girl vampire is ready to tare me to shreds, then I'd like for you to intervene." I let out a giggle.

"Deal."

"Can you carry me upstairs Mr. Cullen? It's almost 1am and I'm getting a little tired."

He didn't say anything at first.

"I mean if you don't feel like it that's fine." I started walking away peaking behind me with a smile. He swooped me up and I let out a yelp. We were upstairs in less than 2 seconds.

He laid me on the bed and I took off his shirt. I wanted to run my hands all over him but I knew I had to compose myself.

I felt myself get really sleepy. I wanted to stay up.

"Bella, you look really tired. Why don't you sleep?" I couldn't fight it.

"Okay."

"Wow. You didn't fight me on it, you must be tired."

I have no idea if he said anything after that. I fell asleep so quickly.

Leave Review please.
