Review: As we left chapter 4 Alice and Bella were getting ready to meet Jasper and Edward at a bar.

Chapter 5

I was all ready to head out to the bar to meet the guys when I had a sudden attack of nerves. I'm a married woman for Christ's sake. What the hell am I thinking? Nothing can ever come of this right? So what's the point of going?

He's so pretty.

SHUT UP!

Jesus! Now I'm talking to myself in my head. I'm answering myself too. This can't be good. WHAT is it about this guy?

He's the one you've been waiting for.

I must have had a panicked look on my face, as it was at this point Alice slipped her arms around me and gave me a tight hug.

"Stop thinking, you know it does you no good." She joked into my ear. "Use tonight to answer all the crazy questions in your head. By the time we come home you'll have the answers."

God I hope she's right.

We got into her Mustang and turned up the music. It was insanely loud, but this is what we always do before going out. We sing and dance in our seats and pump ourselves up. I instantly felt better and ready to take on the world.

As we neared the bar my nerves started again. I worried out loud if they would even bother showing up. My mind was almost instantly settled as we pulled into the parking lot. The entire front of the bar was made up of floor to ceiling windows. We could see Edward and Jasper inside playing pool.

I breathed a small sigh of relief. Alice just laughed at me.

"Go in already. You look fucking hot. You can do this." She says to me.

She was right. I did look hot. I had on a pair of tight black short shorts, a low cut red top and a pair of low heels. Alice had of course done my hair and makeup perfectly. I was a walking advertisement for understated sexy. At least that's what Alice had said when she was done with me.

As soon as we walked in the guys came to greet us. Jasper tried to kiss Alice, but she wasn't having any of that yet. She would need a drink, or two or ten before Jasper got another kiss. Edward took my hand and lightly brushed his lips across my knuckles.

"My my Bella, don't you look amazing tonight." He crooned at me.

I smiled like a giddy little school girl who had just been asked on her first date. It was pathetic.

"Umm, OK. So we have a table over here. Can I get you a drink?" he asked.

Drink. Drink. Shit. I couldn't think of a fucking drink now? "Margarita please. Rocks, extra salt." I managed to get out after a minute of floundering.

As the guys went to get drinks Alice pulled me to the table. I was panicking slightly. I could barely answer the man to tell him what I wanted to drink! How am I going to get through the rest of this night? I must look like the biggest loser in the world already.

"Get a grip Bella! Shit!" she practically yelled. "HEY JAZZ! Get Bella a shot also!" she called towards the bar. She knows me too well. It's scary sometimes.

But this is what I need, more liquid courage. I still can't believe I'm acting like such an idiot.

Snap out of it Bella! He's just a guy! An incredibly hot, sexy and totally drool worthy guy, but still a guy! You can do this!

As soon as the guys came back I downed my shot. It didn't take long to feel the effects and loosen up a bit. It felt good. I relaxed a bit and was able to enjoy watching as the guys continued the game.

Okay, so I enjoyed the view more than I enjoyed watching the actual game. What? They're hot guys! You'd enjoy the view too.

I noticed Edward's muscular arms. They weren't huge, but they were well defined and tanned. His back flexed beneath his tight shirt as he bent forward to take his shots as he played. His upper body seemed to be very well defined. I wasn't sure who was winning the game, not that I cared either way. Like I said, I was just enjoying my view.

A few moments later my view got a lot better. Jasper missed his shot and the little white ball came to a stop near the side of the table where Alice and I were sitting. As Edward bent forward in front of us I was graced with a full view of his denim clad buns. I'm pretty sure my mouth dropped wide open. It was a very nice sight. This man's ass could be should be a national monument. Yeah. It's that good.

As I openly gaped at Edward's rear I noticed something off. I didn't see the top of his boxers. I pegged him as a boxers guy, don't ask why. I just did. But now I'm curious. Maybe he wears tighty whiteys. I thought. But still, I should have seen the waistband of his briefs if that were the case, his jeans were pretty low slung. As he moved to the opposite side of the table I couldn't help myself.

"Boxers or briefs?" I asked.

Edward looked up and smirked at me. "Wouldn't you like to know little girl?"

Um, yeah. That's why I asked.

I smirked right back and raised an eyebrow. "Well? Are you too chicken shit to share?"

He laughed at that as he replied "Neither."

When I asked him to elaborate he just shrugged his shoulders. It was frustrating. Whatever. I hoped to unravel the mystery soon enough.

I was completely relaxed now. I started talking to Edward more freely. We seemed to get back into the groove, so to speak. We talked openly, about everything and nothing at the same time. After a while we all ordered food. We were having a good time. I was glad I came.

Of course Alice had to look at her watch and freaked out about the time.

"Shit! It's almost midnight! I have to work at six in the morning!" she told us. She called over our waitress and started to settle up our tab while explaining that we had to go now so she would be able to get a few hours of decent sleep in.

Trust me, no one wants an ill rested Alice. I sighed. I know she's right and we need to leave. Of course, that wouldn't stop me from trying to use my skills of persuasion on her.

I gave her my best 'sad puppy dog' look. I begged and pleaded with her. "Come on Alice, who cares? Call in. I don't think your landlord will mind if you're a little late with the rent." I threw in, laughing because; of course she lives with me!

She didn't want to hear it. She must be immune to my powers now. Sadly I started gathering up my purse and turned to tell Edward good night.

He wasn't any happier about it than I was. "Hey, do you have to work in the morning?" he asked me.

"Well, no. I'm actually off tomorrow." I replied. Not quite sure what he was getting at.

"Do you mind if I drive you home later then? Jasper and I came in separate cars. He has to leave now too." He pointedly glanced at Jasper as he spoke.

I smiled and told him I'd like nothing more than to stay. Alice gave me a wary look but shrugged her shoulders and gave me a kiss goodnight. Jasper just shook his head as he started to leave. I think I heard him mutter something about man code and bros before hoes. A few moments later it was just Edward and I.

Edward started to rack up the pool balls for another game. "Do you play?" he asked me.

"No, not really. I've played once or twice but totally suck ass at it." I reply.

"Ha! Let the master teach you then!"

What the hell I thought, as I picked up a pool cue.

We played a couple of games. Edward was good, I sucked ass. I'm pretty sure he was holding out and letting me win. But I don't mind. I also didn't mind when he would come up behind me to 'help' me align my shot. After I sank the eight ball in for the final shot Edward suggested another round and walked to the bar to get our drinks.

As I was sitting at our table and older dude comes and introduces himself.

"Hello sweet thang." He drawled. "I'm Marcus. You should ditch pretty boy there and come home with a real man." He proudly rubbed his greasy hand from his neck down to his belly.

I took everything I had in me to not flat out laugh in his face. This "real man" in front of me couldn't be any younger than 40. He had a well-defined beer belly, a bad excuse for a comb over and tobacco stuck in his teeth from his chew. Is he serious?

I'm not sure how I did it, but I somehow managed to remember my manners. "Thanks, but no thanks. I'm rather fond of my 'pretty boy' as you call him." I responded.

Marcus chuckled and put a grimy hand on my exposed leg. "Now baby, don't be like that. You don't wear short shorts like that, popping your ass all over the place and expect to not get any attention do you?" I visibly shuddered and pulled away from his touch.

I looked towards the bar where Edward was, he turned and looked at me in that exact moment. He must have noticed the look on my face, even from across the smoky room. He said something quick to the bartender and was at my side in an instant, his left arm wrapped around my waist while he pecked me on the cheek. "Can I help you Old Man?" he asked to Marcus, you could hear the anger dripping from his voice.

"Uh uh uh. I was just telling the lady how pretty she is," Marcus said as he walked away. I looked to Edward and we both laughed for a moment.

Edward rushed back to the bar to grab our drinks. As he came up from behind me, he placed our glasses on the high table in front of me. His arms snaked around my waist and he rested his head on my shoulder. "I'm sorry that bastard bothered you." He whispered in my ear. "I didn't like seeing that one bit."

I was in seventh heaven now. All I've wanted since the day I met this man was to have his arms wrapped around me! Now they are, and he's even whispering in my ear. Damn he's got a sexy voice. I can feel my panties getting wet already.

I leaned my head back a bit and told him not to worry about the 'competition' as there really is none when he's nearby. He stood up straight and chuckled. I wanted to know what was so funny about that so I leaned my whole head back. The top of my head rested against his chest as I gazed at his now upside down face. He was looking down at me with a huge smile on his face. I smiled too. That's when it happened.

He tightened his hold around my waist and dropped his head to mine. His lips brushed mine in a slow and sweet kiss. He tasted of beer and pretzels. I started to open my lips for him when suddenly the kiss was over. Before I had the chance to mourn the loss of his lips, I was spinning around in the tall stool until I faced him. One hand went forcefully behind my head; the other was wrapped around my shoulders as he attacked my mouth.

His kiss was forceful, passionate and hard. It was magic. My lips automatically opened for his and I allowed our tongues to play together. My hands traveled up his back, down his arms, into his hair. Everywhere they could reach. He kissed me harder. I pulled him in tighter.

Somewhere in the back of my mind I remembered Jacob. I'm married. I shouldn't be doing this. Jacob's kisses have never been anywhere near this. But I just can't find the will to care about Jacob's feelings or our marriage at this point. Edward's lips were on mine now and nothing else in the world mattered. I couldn't get enough of him and I sure as hell didn't want to let him go. You would need a crow bar to pry us apart at this point.

We continued kissing and making out like teenagers at prom for what seemed like forever. Hands were roaming and groping each other's bodies. Our tongues are doing a delicious dance inside our mouths. We were in our own little world and no one else was allowed in. I never wanted to leave.

End Note: OK- so not as juicy as I had hoped to make it, but really, they're still in the bar. I promise lemons will be coming up in the next few chapters!
