Disclaimer: If I could I would gladly take the credit for the phenomenon that is Twilight…but unfortunately I can't! All praise and respect goes to Stephenie Meyers for creating the wonderfully, magnificent work of art that is Edward Cullen!

**I just wanted to inform you all that I have been just a tad bit more busy than usual with my daughter's end of school year activities. Which in turn has caused me to lack on my writing. Things are beginning to whine down and she will be out of school for the summer in just 2 short weeks. I will dedicate much more time to my stories when that happens, maybe even update more than once a week per story. You guys are the best and I don't want to keep you waiting for updates longer than necessary. That's just how committed I am to my stories and my readers. I hope you guys understand.

Okay so there were some who were a little disappointed in the lack of some lemony goodness between our favorite couple in the last chapter…so just for you, I added a hot lemony scene for your enjoyment!;-)


It was Monday afternoon and my parents were at work and James was spending time over at Vicki's house making plans for their trip this coming weekend. James and Vicki are graduating on Thursday and will be going away for two weeks to Hawaii, their graduation present courtesy of my parents. Vicki's parents are taking them to Europe right before they go off to Harvard as their graduation present from them (my parents are going along too).

Edward and I were lounging around in my room, after a very boring day of school. The last day of school for all underclassmen is Friday and we have to suffer through complete boredom for the remainder of the week. On Thursday we have a half of day of classes because the senior class graduation takes place at seven that evening in the school's auditorium.

It was surreal to be back here in Forks after the wonderful weekend I had with Edward at the inn. I'm still buzzing off him playing the piano with Jacob Stickney. I've already gave Edward my feedback on him playing with the band and I hope that Carlisle and Esme would be just as supportive…not that I have any doubt they wouldn't. It will be a great and memorable experience for Edward to do this. I know how much his music means to him and that he would love to be able to do this kind of thing on a regular basis. However his love for music is just as great as his want to become a doctor, so he's kind of torn as to which direction he will follow once we go off to college.

"Love, remind me again why you didn't wear your ring to school today," he asked me pulling me from my reverie of thinking.

"Simply because I haven't had a chance to sit down and talk to my parents about it yet and I didn't want to have to answer questions from our friends and all the nosy people at school about it, before I've spoken with my parents," I told him.

"Are you worried about how they'll react," he asked me with concern.

"No, that's not it at all. I know they'll be happy for us, because I think they know you're the real deal for me. I just don't want them to lecture me about taking things slow and us having our whole lives ahead of us and not to rush into marriage as a means for us to be able to live together or have sex as much as we want," I told him.

"Do your parents not think we have sex now? I mean Carlisle and Esme are very aware that my siblings and I are sexually active, not saying that they approve of or encourage it. With Carlisle being a doctor and all, he wanted us to be able to come and talk to him about stuff like that so that we could protect ourselves and be knowledgeable about the consequences of sex."

"Renee knows that I'm sexually active, because she was the one to take me to get birth control. I was able to talk to her before I decided to have sex and even after Jasper and I did it for the first time. We have that kind of relationship, but it's not to the point where I divulge intimate details or anything. She's just there to listen if I have something to say, or offer advice if I need it. Charlie on the other hand likes to believe I still have my innocence and I'm not going to tell him otherwise because I love you and I have no doubt that he may try to dismember your member," I told him while watching him cringe at my words.

"We can't have that now can we? I thoroughly enjoy using my member to bring you to new heights of pleasure. Speaking of which…I really want to bring you to some of those heights right now. I know we have plenty of time before anyone will be here and I would really like to spend a good portion of that time inside of you. What do you say love?"

"I say stop using your mouth on words and put it to use someplace else," I told him seductively.

"It's a good thing you wore a skirt to school today, because it will be so much easier for me to just reach the area that I desperately want so badly," he said while reaching under my skirt and removing my thong.

We made quick work of both our clothing before moving to the top of my bed in a tangled mess of bodies. Edward kisses were so addicting and I just couldn't stop long enough to disentangle myself from his limbs and get on to the good stuff. Finally he released me for air and I took that opportunity to move down his body and take his swollen dick into my mouth. I will never grow tired of pleasuring Edward this way. It gives me such a sense of power and purpose to know that I have him at my mercy in this position.

"Mmmm, Bella baby that feels so good. Uh, yeah…just like that," Edward moaned out.

I had his dick nice and wet as I worked my mouth and tongue over his swollen tip, massaging the base with my hand. He taste so heavenly that I always had a hard time slowing down my pace to prolong things, because of that wonderful taste. With a few more licks and sucks on his very impressive erection, he came in my mouth. I licked up every last drop.

"Oh fuck baby that was out of this world" he told me with a glazed look in his eyes.

He quickly switched our position, with me on my back and him on his knees in between my legs. He lifted my legs up and then pushed them together once they were up far enough and then he pushed them towards my head…exposing my pussy to his watchful eyes.

He knelt down and gave my pussy a long sensuous lick.

"Oh fuck, shit…God Edward, that's feels fucking good," I exclaimed.

He kept at it, just licking and sucking on my dripping wet pussy. He would stop here and there to dip his tongue inside of my hole, which in turn I would scream out and buck my hips up more towards his face. He eventually let my legs go and I let them fall wide open in the widest spread eagle position I've ever been in. I gripped his hair in both hands and rammed his face into my pussy because he was indeed bringing me to new heights and I just couldn't get enough. When I came, my toes curled, my body stiffened, my eyes rolled in the back of my head and I could swear that I heard myself singing 'Aaaaaaaaaaahhhhhhhhhhh.'

"Damn, that was mind-blowing…epic…phenomenal…damn good," I said to him trying to convey all the things I was feeling as I came down off my orgasmic high.

"I aim to please and if it pleases you…then it most certainly pleases me," he said as he pulled me to him and placed my legs on his shoulder before plunging deep inside of me.

"Oh fuck," we both moaned in unison.

I gripped my comforter in my hands as I tried to brace myself for Edward's deep thrust. It's amazing how he fills me up completely, as if he were made specifically for me alone.

"Mmm baby you're so fucking tight! I can just stay here inside of you forever, please baby don't ever leave me and take this piece of heaven away from me," he pleaded in between moans.

"You never have to worry about that. I'm yours always…you are my everything. Oh shit, fuck…I'm about to cum Edward. Ohhhh, mmmm, yes!"

Edward kept thrusting into me hard as I came and he then let loose with his own orgasm.

"Uh…shit I'm cumming Bella baby. Shit, fuck, fuck, shit…oh you're so good," he said as he collapsed on top of me peppering my face with kisses.

We lye there on my bed for a few before I felt him hardening again. I knew this was far from over. I would definitely have to take a nice hot bath tonight, because I was certain to be sore after all of the trauma that Edward is going to put my pussy through.

Sure enough four hours later I sit here in my bathtub trying to soothe my aching pussy. After that first time, Edward and I did it two more times on my bed before rounding things off in my shower where we finished things off with some oral loving on each other.

Edward left my house around 5:30, right before Charlie was due home from work. I had made dinner and Charlie and I ate dinner without my mom and James. They wouldn't be home until later.

After dinner I chatted with my dad for a little bit in the family room, as we watched the news. Dad got caught up in a baseball game that had just started and I thought that was my cue to go and prepare for school tomorrow.

After I laid out my clothes that I would wear to school, I made myself a piping hot bath and soaked my body in there for thirty minutes. When I was done I did my usual preparations for bed before calling Edward to say goodnight and then dosing right off to sleep.

2 days later…

I hadn't been down to La Push in quite some time and I forgot how beautiful the beach is here. Edward and I was a tad bit early as we arrived for our dinner and a movie with Jake and Nessa. I had whipped up a homemade crumble apple pie for us to have for dessert. Edward had swapped a bottle of Pinot Grigio from his father's cellar. I had also brought a gift for Landon, Jake and Nessa's four-month-old son. It was nothing big, just a few outfits, a stuffed wolf pup, as well as a few rattle toys that I had picked up when I went shopping with Rose on yesterday so she could get Emmett's graduation present.

We hadn't spent a lot of time together lately…just the two of us, so we took some much needed time to hang out after school together. Alice didn't mind because she knows that Rose and I are closer than any of my other female friends. Plus, she's still trying to go slow and allow me to pace our friendship. Things have been good between us and it's nice that Jasper has gotten a little closer to Edward. He needs male friends to hang out with.

Rose is also the only person I've told about my promise ring. She was floored, but not surprised, by the ring. She gave all the appropriate responses when I showed it to her and told her how he had given it to me, leaving out the part about the steamy sex we had beforehand.

"So when do you think you will be ready for marriage Bells," she asked me.

"Not for awhile. Probably after we finish up undergrad. There's no rush for us. We love the things the way they are and the only thing that will change is that it will be official and we'll have a document to prove it. Everything else can be done without a legal document. We're moving in together when we start college."

"How are you going to handle Em going off to college in the fall," I asked her.

"Well he's not going off to college until I graduate. He's going to work at the fitness center in Port Angeles and then we're getting an apartment together right before we start college. He wants to be an architect and I want to be a lawyer, so we have very ambitious career choices that we're seeking and we support each other on those career choices. I think us living together will give us a better understanding of how we differ, because we know how good we are together…but no relationship is perfect."

"I know what you mean Rose. Edward and I get along so well together that I am a bit curious as to what things will irk me about him once we're living together. I just hope our love is strong enough to get through our differences," I told her nervously.

It never really occurred to me that Edward and I might have a lot of differences that we don't get to see everyday. We have so many things that we're alike in, that it's hard to imagine us having differences. I guess it's only right that we do, otherwise things might become a little boring and repetitious between us.

I looked over at Edward as he pulled up to the Blacks home and just surveyed his profile. I can't imagine what we could possibly have to differ on, but whatever it is I'm willing to rough through it and come out much stronger.

Edward caught me looking at him intently, "what's the matter love?"

Instead of lying or giving a coy answer, I decided to go with the truth. "I was just wondering what our differences will be when we move in together and we get to see each other in our everyday habitats…something that we're not so accustomed to right now. Do you understand what I mean by that?"

"I do actually and I have wondered the exact same thing, but I know we're strong enough to get through whatever those differences are. I won't lose you over something as trivial as "differences", because I know on the big things…we are perfectly in sync."

"I'm confident in us too, I just have a habit of over analyzing things at times," I admitted to him.

"Don't worry about it now love. We still have over a year to think about that. Let's enjoy this evening with our friends and live in the moment. We have our whole lives ahead of us, so let's not worry ourselves about it in one evening. I love you," he said as he leaned over and kissed my lips.

"I love you too," I told him after we stopped kissing.

He got out of the car and came around to open my door for me, before grabbing the bag with Landon gifts inside, the bottle of wine and the apple pie I made. When we were in front of the door I raised my hand to ring the doorbell, but the door was pulled open before I could even push the button. Nessa greeted us at the door. Once inside Jacob came from the back of the house and greeted us too. He took the wine and baking dish from Edward and then Edward gave the gift bag to Nessa.

"Oh what's this," Nessa asked as she looked in the bag.

"Just a little something we wanted to get for Landon," I told her with a huge smile.

"That's so sweet of you guys. He's napping right now but as soon as he wakes up I will bring him out for you to see him. He's getting so big," Nessa told us as I watched the gleam in her eyes as she spoke about her and Jake's son.

"I can't wait to see him," I said excitedly.

"Let's move into the dining room, dinner is ready," Jake announced.

"It smells wonderful," Edward complimented.

"I know, my mouth is watering over here," I added in.

"You guys are such ego boosters. I hope it taste as good as it smells. It's my mother's recipe and I haven't tried to make it but once a long time ago," Nessa said.

"Awww baby, you know your gumbo is always the bomb," Jake told her as he gave her a sweet kiss on the lips before sitting in his own seat at the head of the table.

While we ate we all participated in light conversation in between bites. This seafood gumbo was so good, that I was going to have to see if Nessa would let me get her mother's recipe so I could make it for Charlie and Renee.

After dessert, I helped Nessa clear the table while Edward and Jake went off to the den.

"So Bella, did you enjoy your massage? I hope you don't mind that I recommended the location to Edward. I really enjoyed my time there and thought it would be something that you would enjoy as well," she said.

"I didn't mind at all. Especially once I was on that table and had Dominic working his magical fingers on my body. It was wonderful and I'm glad that you recommended the place to Edward and that I got a chance to experience that with him," I told her.

Nessa went over to the door leading out of the kitchen and peeked outside really quick before moving back over to where I stood by the sink. I thought her movements were rather odd, but I was also a bit curious.

"I had to make sure they were really in the den before I indulge you in some 'girl talk'," she said with a wink.

"So tell me what you really thought about Dominic," she asked me slyly.

"Oh…umm, well…he was very attractive indeed. I mean, I would never ever cheat on Edward but I did find myself thinking that if I wasn't attached and I was horny, I would have been asking for a 'happy ending' during my massage," I told her boldly.

"I felt the exact same way when he did my massage both times during my pregnancy. He is super delicious."

"Yeah, but when I think about my Edward in the buff, nothing can compare…not even Dominic," I told her truthfully.

"You guys really are cute together. How long have you been dating," Ness asked me.

"Almost nine months, but it seems so much longer than that," I told her with a big grin on my face.

"I can tell that you two are going to be together forever. You're going to have beautiful babies too. Be careful with him Bella…I see that you've had a lot to deal with when it come to other females lusting after him. He's totally committed to you, but you're going to meet your greatest adversary in the coming months and she's going to be relentless in her efforts. Whatever you do, don't underestimate her…she will pounce on him if she feels that you've let your guard down. Trust me when I tell you these things…my instincts have never betrayed me before."

"I'm not sure how to take that information Ness. I do trust you and I know you wouldn't lead me astray…but I just don't know to process this. Do you have any idea who she is or where all of this will take place."

"No I don't see things like that…I mean I'm not a future teller or anything, I have foresight into things and I don't control when they come or anything like that."

"Wow, you're the second person I've met in my lifetime that has that kind of foresight…but just in a different sense. I will be on the lookout for any temptress that tries to move in on my man," I told her before we both burst out laughing.

A few moments later Jake walked into the kitchen with baby Landon in his arms. Nessa was immediately on her feet taking him from Jake's arms. I could see the blatant love between the happy couple and proud parents. Someday I want that with Edward. I want to have beautiful a beautiful bronze-haired son with my eyes or a beautiful brown-haired daughter with Edward's eyes. I will have all of those things with Edward someday because we were meant for each other.

The rest of our visit with Nessa and Jake was very relaxing and enjoyable. Edward and I played with Landon until it was time for him to go down for the night. He's such a good, happy baby. We never did watch the movie that Jake had rented, but we enjoyed pleasant conversation and playtime with the baby instead. When we're together, it's hard to believe that Ness and Jake are older than we are and that they have a family. It's a certain level of comfort among us when we hang out…a more mature comfort level than what we share with Rose, Em, Ali, Jasper, Ang and Ben. Not that they act immature or anything, but just different I guess.

Around 10:30 we left Jake and Nessa's home to head back to Forks. We made plans to get together again soon and hang out. Edward arrived at my house in no time and walked me to the door, giving me a nice long kiss before wishing me a good night. I was so tired that I didn't feel like doing my usual nightly routine. I instead pulled on a long T-shirt after removing my clothing and climbed into my bed. Sleep overtook me almost immediately and I had the most pleasant dreams about my future with Edward.

Graduation day...

I've never been more proud of my brother in my whole life, than I am at this very moment. As I stand here clapping and yelling his name as he walks across the stage getting his diploma, I feel an overwhelming surge of respect and happiness. You don't find many guys that excel in academics and still shine in sports as well,it's either one or the other usually. James graduated with honors and received many awards in excellence and academics. As well as accolades for his accomplishments in sports. My parents and I are so proud of him.

After the graduation we were meeting up with the Cullens to celebrate Emmett and James graduation. Esme had planned a small gathering of our families at their home to celebrate James and Emmett's accomplishments. She was having the event catered and had decorated their backyard with graduation decorations. She had lights strung strategically throughout the backyard to give off that "starry night" kind of feel. Music was playing softly through the speakers in the yard and the tables were done up beautifully.

Vicki arrived shortly after we did and I gave her a hug and told her congratulations. We chatted for a little bit before James came over and stole her away from me. She looked back at me with an "I'm sorry" expression her face. I know that James just wanted to suck face with her before we sat down to eat.

"There you are. I've been looking all over for you," Edward said as he came over and wrapped me up in his warm embrace.

"What do you mean you've been looking for me? I've been out here this whole time talking to Vicki until my brother came and stole her away," I told him.

"Oh, I just wanted to know if you brought your swimsuit with you. I was thinking that we could go for a swim after the festivities are over with…or we could get in the hot tub. Whichever you want to do is fine by me."

"I did bring my swimsuit actually…thanks to Alice and her insight. She told me that she had a feeling I would need it and that I should bring it just in case, along with some clothes for school tomorrow. So, I guess I'm going to be staying the night," I said to him with a knowing look in my eyes.

"That sounds damn good to me," he replied with that crooked grin of his I love so much.

Esme announced that we were ready to eat and we all made our way over to the tables. Before we were served our food, there were a few toast and words spoken on behalf of the graduates. I was the last person to stand up and say something.

"First and foremost I just want to congratulate Emmett, Victoria and James on this great accomplishment. You guys have set a tone for the rest of us to follow and I'm glad that we have you to look up to."

"James I just wanted to add that…I'm so proud of you. You have been nothing short of amazing as my older brother and you've shown me what hard work and dedication can get you. I know that there are times when I fuss with you and argue with you or even yell at you to leave me alone. I've always known that you only pressed me or pushed me so that I could be my very best and I just hope that I can make you as proud of me as I am of you at this very moment," I finished right before I began to cry.

James got up from his seat at his table and came over to me and pulled me into a tight hug and told me that he is proud of me and will always be.

"Isabella Marie Swan…what is that on your finger," Renee yelled out a bit angrily.

James released me from our hug and took my hands in his to look at what it was our mother was talking about. He then looked over at Edward who happened to be sitting next to me with a look of terror on his face.

Edward stood up next to me and wrapped his arm around my waist in a show of support.

"Well…you see, um…Edward asked me if, um…"

In that brief moment, all hell broke loose in that backyard and it was no longer a happy celebration but an angry mob with their sights set on Edward and I.


A.N. Please review and tell me your thoughts and this chapter. I had a hard time writing this one out because I wasn't exactly sure at first what I wanted this chapter to entail. It kind of took on a life of it's own so I hope it was to your liking.

Next chapter will cover Edward's decision to play or not to play with Jacob Stickney's quartet over the summer. It will also jump forward with the start of senior year.
