The light was streaming through the small window as I squinted, looking at the brick walls covered in vintage rock 'n roll posters. As my eyes adjusted to the light, flashes of the unbelievable sex that I had with the guy who was… not here. Did he seriously leave me to go to classes, because that's fucked up? I got up and started getting my things together. I was dressed, except for my missing underwear, when my phone rang. I grabbed my purse and answered the call from Alice. "Yes?"

"Is this a bad time, because I could-"

"No, its fine…I'm alone. He left me alone in his dorm and I can't find my underwear-"

"Wait, like I don't know where they landed in the heat of the moment, or mysteriously missing like creepy trophy collection of panties in his closet?" Alice barely finished the sentence before Rosalie died laughing, obviously my humiliation was on speakerphone.

"Please tell me you used a condom?" Rosalie asked after her laughter subsided.

"Yes he has a cookie jar on his nightstand-"

"He has a nookie cookie jar? How old is this kid?" Both were lost to hysteria after Rosalie's latest comment.

"Shut up! And he's an upperclassman, or at least, he brought me to an upperclassman dorm…fuck me! I can't believe I let you talk me into…" This time I was cut off by the sound of keys in the door. "He's back, I've got to go."

The door opened and Edward smiled as he came in with a tray of coffee and a bag from a local bakery. "Bella, call us later, we want details!" Alice demanded as I smiled meekly back at Edward.

"Alright, bye!" I hung up and stood as Edward reached the bed. "Sorry that took so long, I was hoping you wouldn't wake up until I got back. I didn't know what you'd want, so I got coffee with cream and sugar on the side, and a cappuccino. Then I got a bagel with cream cheese and a croissant, which do you want?"

I smiled more sincerely as I reached for the cappuccino and the croissant. "Thanks, you didn't have to do this."

Edward frowned a little. "I know, but I wanted to. Look, I hate to do this so early, and I know you just woke up, but can we talk?"

FUCK! "We can talk, but can you help me find my underwear first?"

Edward laughed, relaxing some as we continued to look until he found them next to the mini fridge. Running to the bathroom, I cleaned myself up, coming back out to sit with him on the bed and finish breakfast. "So Edward, what do you study?" I really had no idea what to talk to him about.

"I'm studying music composition. What about you?" Awe how sweet, he still thought I was in college.

"I graduated; I work at a magazine as a lifestyle columnist."

He nodded, obviously impressed. "Wow, how long have you been doing that?"

"I interned there my senior year, so four years."

He shifted uncomfortably before he met my eyes. "I know this is a big no-no to ask, but how old are you?"

I laughed because he's about to get the same question. "24, how old are you?"

"19." He answered without hesitation, I however, choked on my coffee. "Bella, are you okay?"

"Fine, you just look younger, and then when we got back here I didn't know what to think."

"Is my age a problem?" He looked genuinely upset so I moved to reassure him, resting a hand on his knee.

"No, it's just, I've always been the younger one, it'll be a nice change, I guess."

"So, you'd be okay with seeing me again?" Edward's face lit up and I couldn't help but laugh.

"Sure, why don't I give you my number?" Edward handed me his phone and I programmed it in and then called my phone so I could save his. "Edward, I hate to run, but I really should get going."

He stood up, looking around until he found his keys. "I'll drive you, no reason for you to call a cab."

"Thanks, that'd be nice." We headed down to his car and quickly drove to my place. I made my way up to my apartment, still smiling slightly to myself about the recent turn of events, that is, until I went into my apartment.

"Where in the hell have you been?" I spun around as a shriek escaped my lips, finding myself face-to-face with Jacob.

"Excuse me, but what I do is none of your business, what the fuck are you doing in my apartment?"

"I came to talk to you. What in the hell were you doing with that infant last night?"

"Getting over you! You cheated on me remember, you broke my heart, so you lost the right to comment on my life. Now give me your keys and get the hell out!"

I was about a block from Bella's apartment when I saw her cell phone sitting on the floor of my car. Realizing she'd need it, I turned around and headed for her place. Walking over to try to find the buzzer for her apartment, I saw her apartment number, 4D, just as someone was coming out of her building. I caught the open door and headed up to her place. As I got out of the elevator, I could hear raised voices, but it wasn't until I got closer that I could make out what was being said.

"What in the hell were you doing with that infant last night?"

"Getting over you! You cheated on me remember, you broke my heart, so you lost the right to comment on my life. Now give me your keys and get the hell out!"

The door flew open and I was face-to-face with a very angry Bella. I must have looked pretty upset, because as soon as she saw me her face fell. "Edward, what are you doing here?"

I looked up at her and shrugged. "You left your phone in my car, so I came to drop it off."

She smiled sweetly at me and gestured toward her apartment. "Thank you, come in. You-" she turned to Jake who just finished taking a set of keys off of the ring. "Please just stay away, there's honestly nothing else to say, and I can't go through this again."

Jake handed her the keys harder than necessary, which pissed me off, and walked past me purposely bumping into my shoulder as he walked out of the apartment. I walked past Bella and sat on her couch as she locked the door. "I'm sorry you had to hear that."

"Don't apologize, it's how you feel." I could feel the annoyance building in me, but I still couldn't direct it at her.

"It's how I felt. When I walked into the bar last night, I was trying to forget Jake, I just didn't realize what I had found until I got you home. I told you I'd like to see you again Edward, and I meant that. Unless you think I'm too much trouble?"

I looked up and smiled. "Something tells me you're worth it."

Bella smiled again and came to sit next to me. "I thought the same thing about you earlier."

"Well, I know you have plans, so why don't you call me later and we can figure out when you might want to hang out again."

"I will." We got up from the couch and Bella walked me to the door. As we stood in the doorway I decided to go for it and leaned in to kiss her. There was something about her I couldn't figure out, but every time I kissed her, I felt even more drawn to her.

After Edward left I jumped in the shower and got ready to call Alice and Rosalie to meet up and have lunch. I got to the café to find them already sipping on their iced teas, so I decided to sit down and get it over with. "Just say it."

"Hi to you too." Rosalie smirked at me and I shook my head.

"Alright bitches, you have 10 minutes to talk about Edward and then the subject is closed, so get this shit out of your system."

"Edward? Boy toy has a name, Allie." Rose struggled to hold in her laughter, failing miserably.

"Shut it Rose, Bella's obviously happy, or at the very least dickmatized, don't piss all over it."

I was half grateful and half ready to smack Alice for that, but decided that was the closest to sympathy that I might get. "I am happy, and considering everything that went down this morning-"

"Did you find your underwear?" Alice slid in the jab as I glared at her.

"Yes, and I wasn't referring to that, Edward's been really cool about all my shit, even with Jake stalking me at the moment."

"Jake, what did that fucking dog do now?" Rosalie, who never hid her hatred for Jake was so excited to finally get to openly hate on him.

"Last night or this morning?" The looks of quiet shock allowed me to continue uninterrupted. "Remember the part of the plan where Sam wouldn't call Jake, yeah that was a bust because he showed up and saw me leaving with Edward and flipped out, calling me a whore and-"

"He called you a whore!" Rose was now officially on the warpath.

"Can I be allowed to finish a fucking sentence today?" Before I could go on Alice asked her question.

"How did Edward react?"

"Last night, there was a second I thought he was going to step to him, but I freaked and he took one look at me and got us in the car and got the hell out of there. And then this morning when he dropped me off I left my phone in his car and when he came back to return it he caught the tail end of the fight which included me telling Jake that I went out last night to get over him. But I smoothed it out and before you ask, I'm going to see him again."

"You really like him?" Rosalie asked sincerely.

"Yes, he's different…I can't explain it, but he made me feel special. I mean hell, I cried after sex and he held me, and then this morning he went out and got me breakfast, and I don't care that he's 19, he's more mature than Jake is at 29."

"Jake's an ass, and if Edward is really everything you say he is, I'm sure we'll like him too." Alice smiled and I breathed a sigh of relief.

"Okay, one more question…is he good?" Rosalie had to ask and I was actually proud of her for holding off as long as she did.

"Yes, and he's an amazing kisser too."

"Good. I'm reserving judgment, but so far I don't hate him." Rose smiled as the waiter came over, ending the conversation.

Dialing Edward's number, I waited anxiously for him to answer. "Hey Bella." God that self confidence was sexy as hell.

"Hey Edward. Do you have plans for dinner?"

"No, what'd you have in mind?"

I smiled, because I did have a plan. "Want to come over and get some take-out?"

"Sure, when do you want me?" Anytime anywhere jailbait…shit, Edward. That nickname is going to be hard to drop.

"Why don't you come by around 7pm." That should give me enough time to get ready.

"7:00 it is. See you then, Bella."

I hung up the phone and looked at my clock, 2:45, I'd better get moving. I ran around picking up the apartment, paying particular attention to the bedroom and bathroom. Around 5, I ran to my closet and dug through all the outfits Alice and Rose had picked out for me on various shopping trips and finally decided to go flirty, while still casual. Pulling out a red jersey wrap dress and a red frilled bra and panty set with little black bows, I sat them on my bed along with some black ballet slippers before I jumped in the shower. Getting out, I put my hair up in a clip and got dressed, finally adding a black faceted beaded heart necklace, a beaded bracelet and a black 'bite me' ring.

Making my way to the kitchen, I called up and placed an order, knowing how busy Volterra can get on Saturday nights. Setting the table and opening the bottle of wine, I ran down the street to pick up our food and got back to my apartment in time to sit the containers on the table before there was a knock at my door. I moved to the door and pulled it open to see Edward standing in front of me in a button down shirt and jeans. Yummy!

Edward's face lit up as soon as he saw me, smiling as I ushered him into my apartment. "Bella you look gorgeous."

I could feel the blush creep up my face as I led him toward the table. "Thank you, you look pretty handsome yourself."

I chuckled to myself as Edward pulled my chair out for me before walking around the table to take a seat himself. "Bella, this food smells amazing, where did you get it?"

I smiled, pouring each of us a glass of wine. "Volterra, I love the food there, but they can get so busy, that's why I ordered ahead."

Edward and I each took food from the various plates and started eating. We were just talking, not really about anything in particular, just chatting about little things when I gestured wildly, knocking his wine into his lap. "Shit!" Edward muttered as he stood up in reaction to it.

"Oh God, Edward…fuck, I'm so sorry, Jesus…crap." The words spilled out as I fumbled to clean up the wine that was on the floor as Edward dabbed at his pants.

"Bella?" I continued trying to clean up, keeping my eyes down as I tried to will away the tears that were inexplicably pricking at my eyes.

"Edward, I'm such a klutz, I can't believe I did that-"

I felt Edward's hands on my arms as he pulled me up from the floor. "Bella, are you crying?"

I tried to look away, but one of his hands caught my chin. "I just wanted tonight to be nice, and of course, I ruined it."

"Baby, they're clothes…they don't matter. Please don't cry." He wiped away my tears and then pulled me in to kiss me with all the heat and passion I felt last night.

"Why don't you let me wash your clothes, that way you have a chance of getting the wine out."

Edward smirked and leaned down to whisper in my ear. "If you wanted me to take my clothes off, all you had to do was ask." Winking at me, Edward started peeling his shirt off, before he stopped at his boxers. "Would you be more comfortable if I was wearing a towel?"

I laughed and nodded, walking him to the bathroom where I got him a towel and took his boxers. Running to the laundry closet I couldn't believe how I had managed to botch this night, and why I was reacting so strongly to it all, then it hit me, it really was obvious. Edward made me feel special, and I was terrified of screwing it up, whatever it was at the moment.

"Bella, are you okay?"

I turned and saw Edward standing there; wearing the towel low on his hips, hinting at the perfection I knew was hiding beneath. "I'm fine, sorry about that."

"There's nothing to apologize about, it was an accident. I just didn't like to see you get that upset."

Shaking my head, I leaned against his chest and his arms held me against his nearly naked body. "I'm just afraid I'm going to screw this up too."

Edward pulled back enough to look me in the eyes. "It's going to take a hell of a lot more than spilled wine to scare me off."

I stepped up on my toes to kiss Edward and the movement dropped his towel. Reaching up, my hair cascaded down my back as I released it from the clip and then untied the fabric so that my wrap dress fell open. "Fuck Bella, what was underneath that dress is even hotter than the way you looked when I got here."

His hands pushed down my dress and hooked into my panties to drop them to the floor before he lifted me onto the washer. Kissing him hard, I reached into my bra and pulled out the condom I had stuck in there earlier just in case. He looked at me bewildered before he took the condom and kissed me again. "I wanted to be prepared." I giggled between kisses.

"Baby, I love this side of you, when you let your confidence show…God I need you."

"Then take me Edward." And he did. He gripped my neck as I leaned back, feeling him fill me as the height of the washer gave him a nice angle. I rolled my hips to meet his as the washer entered a spin cycle and it began to shake, pushing me into an intense orgasm that was so powerful because it was unexpected. Thrusting even harder as he got closer to his climax, Edward kissed my neck before lightly biting the skin of my shoulder. "What are you doing?" It came out breathy, which was fine by me, because I was far more curious than I was annoyed.

"What your ring told me to." I looked at my ring and sure enough, it said 'bite me.' I laughed as I gestured for Edward to step back. He looked confused as he pulled out of me, but didn't question me. I jumped off the washer and looked him right in the eyes.

"Jump up and lie down." Doing what he was told, Edward lay with his ass still on the washer and his legs bent. I climbed up, using the dryer for help as I slid back onto Edward's length and turned the washer back on the final spin cycle. "I want you to feel how good this is."

Rolling my hips into him as I rode him hard, the vibrations ran through both of us, and before I knew it, Edward's hands were guiding my hips movements as he came, followed shortly by another orgasm from me. I collapsed on his chest as he laughed. "Bella...that was the hottest fucking sex act I've ever been associated with."

I smiled as I kissed his chest. "Stick with me boy, and we'll teach each other a thing or two."

Edward got down from the washer and then helped me before we switched his clothes from the washer to the dryer and I walked him back to my bedroom for a good night's sleep.
