Songs for Chapter 21
"Halo" by Beyonce
"Say Yes" by Floetry
"I Will Remember You" by Sarah Mclaughlin
Remember those walls I built
Well, baby they're tumbling down
And they didn't even put up a fight
They didn't even make up a sound
I found a way to let you in
But I never really had a doubt
Standing in the light of your halo
I got my angel now
It's like I've been awakened
Every rule I had you breakin'
It's the risk that I'm takin'
I ain't never gonna shut you out
Everywhere I'm looking now
I'm surrounded by your embrace
Baby I can see your halo
You know you're my saving grace
You're everything I need and more
It's written all over your face
Baby I can feel your halo
Pray it won't fade away
I can feel your halo halo halo
I can see your halo halo halo
I can feel your halo halo halo
I can see your halo halo halo
Previously on Storm Before the Calm…
Together Alice and I exited the now crowded Starbucks and walked to our cars, which were parked across from one another. Before getting in my car, I turned to Ali and gave her a hug. I felt grateful to her for telling me about her past. I know it was difficult. I felt optimistic about the possibility of a friendship with her. I know it will make Edward happy and to see him happy, makes me happy.
It's been just over seven months since Alice told me about her past. It was hard for me to listen to and to take in, because I felt so bad for her. She didn't want my pity, but I couldn't help but to pity her. I was still reluctant at first to allow myself to get close to her, although she had a shitty past she still had the ability to reason and know right from wrong when she met me and fucked Jasper. It took awhile, but we've been able to become really good friends.
It's because of that friendship that I can sit here in her room while she tortures me with make-up and hair care products. Tonight is our high school prom and we're all going. Although prom is usually for seniors, it's a big deal for all students at Forks High since we live in such a small town. My brother and Victoria are up for prom king and queen. There's no question that they're going to win.
"Ali are you done yet? I've been sitting here for like 3 freaking hours now. It doesn't take that long to put on make-up and curl somebody's hair," I told her menacingly.
"Bella, haven't you learned by now that I'm a perfectionist and I won't let you leave this chair until I feel like you're beyond perfect," she asked me.
"My God Ali, Edward loves me for me. I could be in a pair of sweats, a T-shirt and some beat up sneakers…with no make-up on and he'll still love me and want me," I told her with confidence.
"That may be the case when it comes to Edward, but you're going out in public and I'm sure you do not want to be the topic of everybody's conversation tonight. I can assure you that it would not be pretty if you were to go to prom looking like you came from some little makeshift box off the street," she said.
I knew what she was saying was true. I wanted to look my best for Edward, but God this is taking for-freaking-ever! I'll just continue to grin and bear it and just hope that she'll be done soon.
"Fine Ali, let's just finish this up so I can get dressed and get back to my man," I told crisply.
Thirty minutes later I was all ready to go. Rose was touching up her lipstick while Ali was finishing up her make-up (Rose arrived about 20 minutes ago). The boys were waiting downstairs for us, along with my parents, Mr. & Mrs. Hale and Esme and Carlisle. My mom and dad already saw James and Victoria off before coming here. We're all going in separate cars, because each couple is going away for 3 days after we leave prom. Although our parent's thing we're all going to Seattle together, that's not the case.
I'm not sure where Edward is taking me, because he wants it to be a surprise…I do know that it's in Port Angeles though.
The other four are actually going to Seattle and staying at the same hotel Edward took me to for my birthday. These next three days are just for Edward and I. He said that he had something he wanted to talk to me about. We've been spending a lot of time with Rose, Em, Jazz and Ali over the past seven months that we haven't had a chance to get away or really spend any alone time together. This was our special time away. My bag was already packed and sitting inside of Edward's trunk. We will be going to our secret location right after we leave prom.
We left Ali's room and made our way down the stairs. The guys must have heard us coming because they were waiting patiently at the bottom for us to descend. Our parents were not far behind. You could see several flashes going off as we made our way down. Of course our parents would not let this night go by without photographs to forever remember this night by. (A.N. Pictures of their outfits are on my profile.)
When we got to the bottom each of us went to our boyfriend for them to give us our corsages. Of course Edward had to go and say something to make me blush.
"My love, you are absolutely breath taking. Blue is definitely your color. It compliments your skin so well," he said while taking my right hand and placing a soft, gentle kiss on the back of my hand. He slid lovely wrist corsage onto my wrist. It was beautiful made and smelled divine.
Esme and my mother were both gushing over Edward and me, telling us how wonderful we looked together. Of course they took a gazillion pictures. We took several group pictures with the other two couples before taking an all girl picture and then the guys taking a picture together.
After about an hour we were on our way to the prom. Edward and I didn't talk much as he drove his Vanquish smoothly to the high school. I don't think anyone at our school has ever seen Edward's special occasion car, so I knew we would make heads turn when we pulled up to the school.
You would think that we were late as long as we took at the house, but we planned accordingly so that we could get here at a sensible hour. The prom started at 8 and we arrived a little after 8:30. Just late enough to make an entrance, at least that's what Rose said we needed to do.
Sure enough, when we pulled into the parking lot…all eyes were on us. You could just see people heads turning as Edward drove the car into the lot and pulled into a parking space towards the end. We waited for the rest of our friends to arrive before making our way into the gym.
Emmett and Rose pulled up on the right side of us in Rosalie's red BMW. I can't believe she actually let Em drive her car. She never lets anybody drive her baby. Jazz and Ali wasn't far behind, pulling up to the left of us in Carlisle's black Mercedes. Ali didn't want to take her car and since Jazz has a SUV, they opted to go with Carlisle's car instead.
Once again, all eyes were on us as we made our way up the walkway, through the crowd and into the gym. It was almost as if the music stopped and everyone looked up from what they were doing to stare. That's just how obvious their gawking was.
We gave our tickets to Mrs. Cope, who was sitting at a card table right when you entered the gym. When you walked in you had to give her your tickets first and then cast your vote for who you wanted to be prom king and queen. After we all cast our vote, we went over to a table right next to the dancefloor where Angela and Ben were waiting for us.
Angela looked beautiful in her white beaded dress. Ben was quite dashing in his black tuxedo with a black wing tipped shirt, white vest and tie. They made such a cute couple.
At 9 on the nose, dinner was served. It was pretty good too. You had a choice of three meats, rack of lamb, orange glazed chicken or grilled salmon. Served with rice pilaf and seasoned vegetable. Edward and I both had rack of lamb. Emmett, Angela and Jasper opted for the glazed chicken…while Rose, Ben and Ali went with the grilled salmon. After dinner, we were served dessert. The waitstaff rolled out carts with different arrays of cakes and pies. Everyone, with the exception of Ang and myself, got some kind of cheesecake. Ang opted for a slice of triple chocolate cake, while I went with a slice of key lime pie.
Now that we were full, it was time to dance. The theme of the prom was "Starry Night" so the ceiling was created to look as if we were dancing under the stars. It was actually pretty awesome.
We all took to the dancefloor having a good time. Throughout the night we traded off partners amongst the eight of us and had a good time. About thirty minutes before it was time to announce the prom king and queen, James came over to me and asked if he could have a dance. He shook Edward's hand and Edward gave me a kiss before turning and walking back to our table.
"You look beautiful tonight little sis," he complimented me.
"You clean up pretty nice yourself big brother," I replied.
"Are you having a good time Bells? I'm sorry that I haven't had a chance to come over and talk with you before now, I've just been caught up in different conversations with some of Vicki and my friends. I still can't believe that I'm about to be done with high school. I'm going to miss you so much when I leave to go to Harvard. It just won't be the same without you around squirt," he admitted.
"Don't go getting all sentimental on me now James. You're going to make me cry and then my make-up will start to run and I'll look like Frankenstein's bride. You don't want that, because the little spitball of fire will come after you for messing up all of her carefully applied work," I threaten him while throwing a glance over towards where Ali was dancing with Jasper.
James looked over to where I was looking and cringed a little bit. "Well let's not make the pixie mad then shall we," he said sounding a bit nervous.
"You know, I'm glad that the two of you were able to work out your differences and become friends. I know what she did was wrong, but she seems like a really good person. You are also happier than you've ever been with Edward, so I think that although the act in itself was misguided…maybe it was for the best that you and Jasper broke up," he told me truthfully.
"Maybe you're right. I just think that all the heartache could have been avoided had she just let it happen naturally, but now that I look back over it…I don't think either one of us would have willingly let go of each other. We were one another's safety net. He's so much happier with her, just like I am with Edward. I'm glad that things are somewhat normal for all of us again," I told him.
We fell into a comfortable silence and finished our dance before he needed to head over to get Vicki so they could line up with the other nominees for prom king and queen. Right before he turned to leave me to go over to Vicki he said to me, "good luck."
I didn't get a chance to question him about that statement, because he had quickly moved back over to his table. I don't know what he could possibly need to wish me luck for. Maybe he was wishing me luck for my friendship with Alice. I couldn't think of anything else…so I dropped it.
I went and sat down at the table with everyone else once I finished dancing with my brother. We had a perfect view of the front where the stage was set up. I was giddy with excitement for my brother and Vicki. All of us at the table voted for the two of them. Even Rose…but then again she and my brother have remained friends since their break-up at the beginning of the school year.
Our principal made his way up to the microphone with some white envelopes in his hand. Two students staff members accompanied him. One was my math teacher, Mr. Brandon and the other was the physics teacher, Mrs. Langley. They stood to the side where a small table was set up with what appeared to be four crowns and some other things.
"Why is there four crowns up there on that table? I thought there couldn't be a tie," I asked the table at large.
My friends all looked at the table to see what I was talking about before Ang turned to answer me first. "I don't think there is a tie Bella. If you look carefully all the crowns are different. Had it been a tie, they would all have to be the same," she said.
"Maybe they're giving a crown to the runner ups as well," Rose suggested.
We all thought that was plausible so I didn't say nothing more about it. I just sat back and waited for the crowns to be handed out. I was very interested to see who the other two crowns would go to, even though I didn't say it out loud…I was intrigued.
"Could I please have everyone's attention," Principal Varner asked into the microphone.
All conversation and walking faded away and everyone was focused on the stage.
"I just want to begin by saying that I hope you all are having a lovely time and have enjoyed the live band we hired to play for you tonight. Normally I would begin calling up the nominees for prom king and queen, but we've decided to add something to this year's court. It's something that's been under wraps all year, only the staff and the senior class were aware of this change. We're starting a new tradition here at Forks High School, starting now."
"Along with our senior court…we're going to add a junior court. So we're going to have a junior class prince and princess as well as the normal senior class king and queen. The reason that none of the underclass knew about this change is because we elected to have the senior class nominate the individuals who they thought would be best suited for this honor. Starting next year the junior class will have to nominate their own choices for the junior court."
You could hear hushed conversations throughout the gym at Mr. Varner's announcement. So that's what the other two crowns are for, I thought to myself. I wonder who was nominated…then it dawned on me. That's why James wished me luck. I bet he got me nominated as one of the contenders for the junior court. Oh my God, I'm really nervous now. I just wish I could grab Edward and skaddle out of here…but I know that would just bring more attention to us. All I could do is just sit back and wait…I really hate waiting!
"So without further ado, when I call your name you are to come forward and line up in front of the stage. Girls on one side, guys on the other," Mr. Varner said.
"First name on the list for the girls…Lauren Mallory, Jessica Stanley, Rosalie Hale and Isabella Swan."
"For the guys…Tyler Crowley, Mike Newton, Jasper Whitlock and Edward Cullen."
"Your first ever junior class Prince and Princess is…Edward Cullen and Isabella Swan."
The applause was monumental throughout the gym as Edward and I walked to the forefront of the stage and stood there while Mr. Brandon and Mrs. Langley adorned us with our crowns, sashes and presented me with a bouquet of white and pink tiger lilies. (Pictures of all crowns and sashes are on my profile)
As we turned to look out over the crowd of our peers, I noticed that just about the entire senior class was standing on their feet applauding us as well as our table of friends. I think I'm in shock still because it feels as though this is a dream.
Edward and I were told to stand next to the stage while the senior court was called up. After the prom king and queen are selected…each winning couple has to dance to the senior class song. I wasn't looking forward to dancing, but I that Edward would lead me with perfection. He's a very good dancer…not surprising considering he's good at everything he does.
Mr. Varner stepped to the microphone again to call out the senior court. "First up for the ladies will be Beverly Adams, Amanda Johnson, Tiffany Thomas and Victoria Nomad. First up for the gentlemen will be Greggory Thomas, Cedric Sanders, Emmett Cullen and James Swan."
"Your senior class prom king and queen is…James Swan and Victoria Nomad."
The gymnasium was full of thunderous clapping and wolf whistles. My brother and Victoria were very popular…and not just with the senior class. After Mr. Brandon and Mrs. Langley adorned James and Vicki with their crowns, sashes and presented Vicki with a bouquet of pale pink roses…the band took the stage for our dance.
James and Vicki approached Edward and I and we offered each other congratulations and I hugged my brother and Vicki, before we all walked to the middle of the dancefloor. The band started up the intro to Sarah Mclaughlin's "I Will Remember You," which is the senior class song.
Edward took me in his arms and began to lead us to the beat of the music. I looked up into his eyes and caught him staring at me intently. As if on cue…I blushed. He leaned down and kissed my lips ever so gently before pulling back and smiling at me. We knew we couldn't get all caught up in a kiss because we were at a school function and we would get into trouble. So I was okay with just that little peck for now, but I knew I our night was going to be full of kissing…and not just on the mouth!
Once the song ended we exited the dancefloor and headed back to our table where our friends hugged and congratulated us.
"I guess you now know who the other crowns were for," Angela said with a smile.
"Yeah, but I still can't believe that I won. I thought for sure Rose would have took home that title," I admitted sheepishly.
"Once again Bells, you don't see yourself clearly. Although I may have been your only competition on that court…you are the most popular between the two of us. Plus with James being a senior, your brother and king of the school…of course his and Victoria's friends would vote for you," she said with a genuine smile.
"Thanks Rose, that means a lot coming from you," I told her.
We all sat at the table a while longer before we were ready to get out of there and start our own private nights with our dates. I walked over to James to say goodnight to him and Vicki. He told me to have fun in Seattle and that we would hang out when I got back. As I was walking back to my table, Mike Newton accosted me.
"Hey Bella. Come on and dance with me," he said while trying to pull me out to the dancefloor.
"No Mike! I'm getting ready to leave and I don't want to keep Edward waiting," I told him forcefully.
"He won't mind…plus he hogged you the whole night. Don't I deserve a dance with you," he questioned.
"NO," two voices from behind me answered angrily.
I turned and saw my brother and Edward behind me glaring harshly at Mike. When I looked back at Mike…he looked as if he was going to pee his pants. He was terrified right now.
"Don't ever touch my sister again you piece of scum," James threatened.
"I will tear you from limb to limb if you ever put your hands on my girlfriend again. Do you here me Newton," Edward said so calmly…but you knew that he wasn't playing.
Mike nodded his head and then quickly ran off. I turned to my two saviors feigning anger. "Guys I could have handled it myself. You didn't have to go all Neanderthal on the poor boy. Now he's got to go and change his pants." With that said, the three of us bust out laughing…it was funny as hell.
Edward and I said goodbye to James and we exited the gym along with four of our six friends. Ang and Ben were staying behind.
When we arrived at the cars, Edward and I bid farewell our friends and got inside his Vanquish and drove off. He was anxious to get me to wherever it is he's taking me. I'm excited and nervous at the same time. I think the nerves come from my anxiety to be there and to get him naked.
After about an hour we pulled up to this beautiful Bed and Breakfast. Edward told me to wait here in the car while he went to check us in. He was back in less than fifteen minutes. We drove over to a parking spot and Edward got out to come open my door and help me out. He grabbed our luggage from his trunk and then we walked up a pathway that led to us to the door of our room. I could tell from the grounds that this room was going to be phenomenal.
When we stepped inside I gasped at the beauty of the room. It was so cozy, yet elegant. What I fell in love with the most was the fireplace that was nestled right next to the leather loveseat at the foot of the gorgeous queen-size bed.
That was before I saw the bathroom…I was immediately captivated by the big beautiful bathtub for two.
"Do you like it my love," Edward asked from behind me.
"I love it," I told him as I threw my arms around his neck and kissed his lips.
"I'm glad that you love it. I wanted these next few days to be special for us. Do you want to take a bath," he asked me.
"That sounds wonderful," I replied.
"Why don't you go and unpack, while I draw a bath for you okay."
"Sounds good sweetheart," I told him.
"Oh and Edward…we will both be taking a bath," I said with a wink before walking into the bedroom.
I unpacked both of our suitcases, after checking to make sure Edward didn't mind. When I was done, I sat out our robes on the bed before stripping down and putting mine on. I grabbed my toiletry bag and headed into the bathroom so Edward could come and put his robe on.
I don't know how he did it or how I didn't notice it…but there were candles strategically placed around the confines of the bathroom. There were scented Rose petals floating in the bubble bath filled tub. Edward had set up his Ipod in his docking station and soft instrumental music was drifting through the air. It was absolutely the most sensual and thoughtful thing he has done thusfar for me. I couldn't love this man any more. He just consumes my whole heart.
Tears began to well up in my eyes and I quickly blinked them away. Edward stood in front of me and asked if I was okay. I nodded my head before quietly saying…"this is beautiful."
He hugged my body to his before excusing himself to go and change into his robe and meeting me back here.
"Go ahead and get in love," he called from the bedroom. I'll be there momentarily. I just need to put the do not disturb sign on the door," he said lastly.
Moments later Edward walked through the bathroom door in his robe. He was also carrying two plush towels that he sat on the counter.
"How's the water love," he asked before removing his robe.
My breath caught in my throat as I took in his glorious body from the back. His calves were perfectly toned and tight, his thighs were very muscular…but not overly so. His broad shoulders were ripped, as were his arms. It wasn't until he turned around that I felt like I was going to faint. One would say that I should be use to his body by now, considering how often I've seen it…I will never tire of looking and being in awe at his magnificence.
"Are you okay Bella," he asked a bit concerned.
I couldn't even move my head, words wouldn't form in my mouth…all I could do is stare at his beautiful body. It wasn't until he said the words that I realized I hadn't been doing just that.
"Breathe Bella," he said urgently.
I snapped out of my daze and took in a breath of air before exhaling.
"I'm sorry that I worried you Edward. Your beauty always dazzles me. You make me wet instantly just looking at you and I don't think I'll get over that," I admitted…shocking myself with my boldness.
"It goes both ways then Bella. The reason I had you get in the tub before I came back in was because I knew that I wouldn't be able to stop myself from ravishing your body. I want us to enjoy our bath before we partake in "other" activities," he said suggestively before stepping into the tub and sinking his body in the water.
We started out facing each other in the tub so that we could talk and look one another in the eyes. Edward had changed the music on his Ipod before he got into the bathtub with me. Now there were a variety of romantic love songs playing.
He leaned in to kiss me and I met him the rest of the way (he leaned in 90 and I leaned in 10…gotta love Hitch). The kiss started off slow but quickly escalated to a fiery need. With all the strength that I could possess, I broke away from the kiss. Edward looked stunned and hurt. I soothe his ego though right away.
"I want us to bathe in the tub and make love in the bed," I told him.
"Well then lets get to bathing because I'm ready to make love to you now," he told me in his sex voice.
Shiver went down my spine at his words. After I recovered I grabbed one of the sponges that I brought for us to wash his body. I put some of his soap on the sponge and begin to wash him. After I was done, he repeated the process on me. As he rinsed away from the soap at my core, I felt his fingers glaze across my folds…slightly touching the skin inside.
I moaned at his touch. He took that as a sign to continue and without hesitation he ran one of his fingers between my folds before thrusting it inside of me, then adding another finger to the first. It felt beyond good to have his fingers thrusting in and out of me, while his thumb massage my clit. I felt my orgasm building and knew that I was at my breaking point. Edward curved his fingers inside of me and twisted them so that he was hitting that soft tissue inside of my opening, while adding a little bit more pressure on my clit with his thumb. I screamed out his name as my orgasm overtook me.
"Let's move this to the bed," he said in my ear.
"Okay," was all that I could manage to get out of my mouth.
He helped me out of the tub before stepping out himself. As I dried my body off, Edward released the water out of the tub and then dried his own body off. He told me to stay here for a moment while he went to set up the Ipod in the room. He returned five minutes later to retrieve me and by that time I had brushed my teeth and my hair.
When I walked into the room I was once again floored by all of Edward's thoughtfulness. The bedcovers were drawn back and rose petals adorned the bed. What was the icing on the cake for me, was the only light in the room came from the fire in the fireplace. You may wonder what a person would need a fire for in May…but in Washington it's never really warm at night. Tonight was actually pretty cool and the fire was perfect.
I didn't even say any words, I just attacked Edward…pushing him down on the bed and pulling his towel away from his body…adding mine to it. I kissed his mouth before sliding my tongue down to his neck and then further down until I had his cock in my mouth. I grasped what couldn't fit in my mouth in my hand and massaged it while I worked the other have with my tongue.
"Shit…fuck…that feels fucking good Bella," Edward moaned.
I looked him in the eyes and continued my exploration of his dick. I loved the fact that I could have this affect on him…I was in charge and there was nothing that he could do but lay there and enjoy my work.
It wasn't until I started to massage his balls with my other hand that he released into my mouth. I swallowed every last drop being pulling away from him and into a standing position. I was ready to take him for a ride…but he had other plans. He moved to the center of the bed and had me straddle his chest before he wrapped his arms around my thighs and moved me closer to his mouth. Once my core was in perfect alignment to his mouth, his tongue dipped out and tasted me. I tried to pull away because it felt just so damn good, but his grip on my thighs had me held prisoner to his tongue.
"Mmmm…fuck baby! That feels so fucking good. Uh…oh yea…don't stop," I pleaded.
He continued to lick, suck and nibble on my pussy bringing me to a mind-blowing orgasm within minutes. My body was convulsing and my pussy was throbbing by the time my orgasm subsided. It wasn't until then that Edward released me from his grip.
I moved back down his body and impaled myself on his fully erect dick. We both moaned as our bodies connected.
"Mmmm…fuck," we said.
I moved slowly at first and then when it became to be too much for me, Edward flipped us over so that he was on top of me. He put both of my legs over his shoulder and pulled me as close to him as possible, before aligning his body (as if he were doing push ups) and begin pounding into me so hard that I was screaming his name like never before. This position had him so far inside of me that I was sure he could damage something inside of me. The sensation was beyond wonderful.
"Oh God…yes…yes…I'm going to cum baby," I moaned.
"Me too love…cum with me Bella," he demanded.
Together we came and I knew that I wouldn't be able to take anymore loving from him for at least an hour or more. I had already had three orgasms and add in this new position we just tried…my pussy needed to recover.
Edward got up to make sure all the candles were blown out before coming back and kneeling next to bed beside me. "Would you please come and sit with me over on the love seat? I want to give you something," he asked.
"Sure," I replied while getting up from the bed and pulling on my robe. Edward had his on as well.
We sat on the loveseat and Edward took my hands in his and looked me in the eyes before he began to talk.
"Bella you are the love of my life, the joy that lights up my life, my beacon of light. Without you I'm not whole…without you I'm not complete…without you I'm nothing. I've told you on many occasions that I'm going to make you my wife one day once we're ready for that step, in the meantime I want you to know how serious I am about that. I have something I want to give you to express my commitment to you…now and forever."
He moved to get down on his knees before me…tears were already falling down my face. I had no idea what it is he was going to give me…but I knew it would be special. Everything around us was blocked out…I could hear music playing in the background…but I couldn't tell you what songs were being sung.
Edward pulled out a small blue ring box from Tiffany's. I felt like I was going to hyperventilate because I was nervous about what was inside of that box.
"Bella…my love. This here is a token of my undying love for you, a symbol of my commitment to you. Would you please take this ring as my promise to not only love you for all eternity…but to make you my wife someday?"
As he opened the box to reveal what was inside I could hear some of the words from the song that was playing and it seemed so fitting to this moment right now.
All you gotta do is say yes
Don't deny what you feel let me undress you baby
Open up your mind and just rest
I'm about to let you know you make me so
All you gotta do is say yes
Don't deny what you feel let me undress you baby
Open up your mind and just rest
I'm about to let you know you make me so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so,
You make me so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so
"Yes Edward I will except this promise ring to one day become your wife," I told him.
He then slid the beautiful diamond and sapphire ring onto my right-hand ring finger (picture of the ring is on my profile). It looked beautiful sitting there and it fit perfectly. Thinking back, now I know why he had us get our fingers sized when we went shopping a few months back. He tried to make it seem like it was nothing special because he had the lady at the jewelry store size all my fingers, so that it wouldn't be evident that he was more interested in the size of my ring finger. He's slick…I gotta give it to him.
After he put the ring on my finger I pulled him to me to hug and kiss him. We held each other for a little while before he picked me up bridal style and placed me on the bed…after removing my robe. He joined me a few seconds later. Although I said I needed to recover from our activities from earlier, I needed Edward to be inside of me. He made love to me slowly, while whispering sweet words in my ear and kissing me in all the places he could reach from our position. After we were done he spooned behind me and we drifted off into a sweet oblivion.
A.N. I know this was a long chapter, but everything that happened needed to go here…in my opinion. I hope you liked it and that you'll leave me a review with your thoughts. You guys are awesome and I love reading what you have to say.
For those that leave me a review, I would like for you to leave me one suggestion for stories you are reading on fanfiction or stories that you've read that you would recommend to others. Even if you don't want to leave a review on my story, if you could please just recommend a story…that would be awesome.
Up next is more of Edward and Bella's getaway…
