Writers Block - Chapter 3

I turn, slowly to face Carlisle Cullen. Mr Cullen who pays my wages, who my life, my apartment, my bank balance, my bills and ME rely on. I hope to god he didn't just see or hear what's just happened! Oh shit, I really am in for it now...

"Swan? Wake up woman! I can't be having you sleepwalking around the building this morning, Edward here needs to see the place!

I daren't turn to face the rude Londoner! This had to be the most awkward moment of my life! Even after the time my jeans tore at my 16th Birthday party and the school hottie James Laurent was there to see my Captain Pugwash smalls! I keep eye contact with Mr Cullen, not turning to face his nephew at all.

shit, please don't mention my outburst. Please, please, please!

"Isabelle, meet Edward. Edward this is Swan. She's one of NYN's younger writers. She'll be showing you around today"

And with that, with a widespread, guilty smile I turn to Mr Cullen's right, where this Rude character stands. Oh my GOSH! slowly scanning my way up this figure from the shine of his Gucci shoes, up his black trousers, to his blue pinstriped shirt, tight over this ripped chest, huge biceps! I reach this face. This rude person is the most gorgeous thing I have ever laid eyes on! He is, BEAUTIFUL! Honey coloured hair with matching hazel eyes, Beautiful long lashes and a

pearly white smile to match. He was PERFECT! I had honestly never seen a sight quite like this!

He was looking back at me with a sly grin, even the awkward face he was giving me couldn't put me off of him. He was like something sent from above!

"Good Morning Edward, Very nice to meet you. I'm ISABELLA Swan, but you can call me Bella" Stressing my name, seen as after three years Carlisle Cullen is

incapable of calling me by my actual name!

I hope to god he keeps schtum about the lift incident!

"We've already met Uncle. Miss Swan here has made...hmmm, QUITE an impression!"

Thought not! Bastard!

Even if he was about to practically get me fired, I couldn't help but smile at him. His accent, his smell, he just drew me in! He was like something I had never experienced before!

what do I say? shit I'm in for it!

"oh..." is that all I could come out with?

"yes, Bella has been very HELPFUL this morning Carlisle. LOOK she even brought me a Starbucks!" he snatched the mocha latté from my hand.

That's the least he could do to me, he's just saved my meat!

"I do try to be helpful Mr Cullen" referring to Edward

Don't push your luck Bella!

"Please, Call me Edward" he had a false smile, all too familiar! just like mine! He was good at this! He had me shivering at this point. It wasn't too late to get me fired!

"RIGHT! That's that then! Meet me at my office Edward...shall we say...12.30?" Carlisle said.

"PERFECT" Edward nodded.

Phew!

And off he went. It was just me...me and this rude, obnoxious, gorgeous human being! It was the most awkward moment of my life! should I say sorry?

"well...that was QUITE an entrance Miss Swan! Not very ladylike though I must say! sticking your middle finger up at the company you work for's nephew! Smart Move!" He heckled.

He really wasn't going to make this easy for me! I could tell he was game playing!

"Well...Mr Edward Cullen, you gave me no choice! You were rather rude yourself" I said, with a cheeky grin

Was I flirting? What was I playing at? Don't flirt Bella. What the fuck are you thinking?

"I could always go and tell my uncle, REALLY how polite you were just there? Wouldn't want that now would we? I saved your bacon and you know it! Now what I think is, you show me your office, mutter all the crap about how you love working here until 12.30 then I shall be on my way! Deal?"

I nodded. Shit he really was an obnoxious bastard!

"Not a problem Edward! Sorry for the misunderstanding!" I was genuinely sorry! What the fuck was I playing at?

"Its Mr Cullen to you now! We're not necessarily on a first name basis. You did tell me to fuck myself. Wasn't it?"

What a nob! an UNECCESARY nob!

"Fine by me. Mr Cullen! Right this way!" I gestured my arm in direction to the way we were heading. I turned away with a look of relief on my face. Not the

best of meets I must say, but he did save my "bacon" as he says in his Gorgeous English accent!

Why couldn't I have just ignored his comment? There really was no need to act like that! Only I, Isabella Swan would make the mistake of making the hottest man on the planet hate me!

It felt like forever walking down the corridor to my little office! My office was usually my safe haven! Not today! I held the door open for this beautiful

creature. No Thank you or hint of forgiveness in his face. No friendly look. Nothing!

I closed the door behind me and walked over to sit at my desk. As I reached my chair to sit down i felt a hand brush past my bottom.

Did he just grab my ass?

"Excuse me?" I apologised! There was no way he would try hit on me after this mornings performance. I must of gotten too close when passing him.

Was he anywhere near me though? I don't think he was!

"That shirt does NOTHING for your figure swan! Those trousers do hug nicely around your pert bottom though i must say! I bet you wouldn't look bad with a bit of help!" he was looking at me differently than he had recently. He had a look I wouldn't expect! A look of...Lust!

"Erm..." speechless!

Did he really just say what i think he did?

He let out a roaring laugh.

"Speechless Miss Swan? Do you really think I'm such a dragon? You yanks seriously need to learn the English sense of humour! I'm pulling your leg!" he had such

a friendly face! Such a warm smile. That was enough to make the polar ice caps melt!

"Oh, I thought u hated me? I thought...You hate my shoes! I shouldn't dress the way I dress? I need Help?" I was getting quite angry now! How dare he walk in off of the sidewalk, someone i had never met before and give me tips on how i should and shouldn't dress! And touch my ass?

What the hell does pulling your leg mean? Is that some kind of metaphoric phrase?

"Don't be daft Swan! I was teasing! Although your bum is pretty tight!" He was...flirting with me!

"Oh, Thanks! Erm, so! Where were we? Oh yes, this is Quiluetes block. This area covers articles such as..." I changed the subject.

"Don't be such a bore Bella! I really don't want to talk work! I'm only here because I was bored of England. When you have a wealthy daft uncle in the states, who wouldn't pretend they're interested in working for him! I'm here for, lets say, a prolonged Holiday! I don't intend on being a pen pusher!" he interrupted.

Holy shit! Why would you admit that?

My mouth dropped open! I was literally gawping at this cheeky, rude, obnoxious, beautiful, gorgeous, handsome being! I inhaled his scent, his presence, his attitude into my system. He was phenomenal!

"I'm not sure I should comment on that Mr Cullen!" No way was i being roped into this! What if it was a game!

He walked towards me. So close i could feel his mint breath on my face, the menthol tang made my eyes slightly sensitive. He was so close I could see the hazel and brown tones in his eyes! He really was beautiful! He made me feel uneasy! Weak! I could of melted to the floor right there! He leant forward to whisper in my ear, I could feel his lips on the side of my cheek! Most would feel uncomfortable, I just wanted to turn my head and plant one right on him.

Right there and then. Feel his tongue wrap around mine.

What's he going to do? Stay still! My breathing was deep and loud. I'm surprised Victoria in the next office couldn't hear my heart pounding through my chest.

"Call me Edward" He whispered in my ear and planted a soft, delicate kiss on my neck...

Fuck me! This was AMAZING! Where was this going?

I didn't care, this guy was caressing my neck with his lips...
