A Hard Day's Night
Bella's Point of View
"Bella, put the pad of paper down and come to bed. It's cold and lonely without you," Edward whined in the doorway of the kitchen. He looked so cute with his hair sticking up in all different directions.
"I will be there soon," I said before going over the check list at least five times; I knew I had to be forgetting something. This weekend was going to be incredibly busy. First, we had Masen's birthday party tomorrow and Saturday was Tanya's prom. Her graduation was the following week.
"Bella, you said that an hour ago," he complained.
"Give me five more minutes?" I asked.
"If I give you five more minutes you have to give me a little nookie." He wiggled his eyebrows.
"Fine," I agreed and scanned the list one more time and, sure enough, found something that I was missing.
"Ah ha! I knew I forgot something! Masen's birthday cake needs to be picked up at nine tomorrow morning." I smirked.
He rolled his eyes and came towards me. "Good. We solved the problem. Now it's time for some nookie."
He picked me up and put me over his shoulder. "Edward!" I hissed.
Locking the bedroom door, he ran toward the bed and dropped me. I pushed myself up only to fall back down when Edward flung himself at me.
"I love a little late night special." He smirked and attached his lips to mine. Pajamas were thrown across the room; our lips touched every bit of one another's skin as we worshipped each other's bodies. As soon as he filled me to the hilt his thrusts became animalistic. It was fast and hungry filled with passion.
It was enough to knock me out in the arms of my husband.
We were woken up the next morning to our son banging on our locked door. "Mama, Daddy open up! I'm nine years old today!"
I groaned and rolled off of the bed. I scrambled for my pajamas—still on the floor from last night's activities—and threw Edward his boxers. Once we were both decent I flung the door open and a little boy crashed into me, knocking me onto the floor.
"Momma! It's my birthday!" he screamed.
Who had this kind of energy in the morning?
He jumped off of me and ran to Edward, who was still in bed. Edward had taken my pillow and put it over his eyes. "Daddy! Daddy, wake up! It's my birthday!" Masen yelled and tried to pry the pillow off of Edward's face.
"Masen, calm down, honey," I told him as I walked over and tried to help Edward.
"It's my birthday!" he yelled again in excitement.
"I know, Mase. Give your father a couple seconds to wake up." I tried to explain.
Masen sat patiently on the bed with his hands folded waiting for Edward as he slowly got up. I sat next to him on the bed and together Edward and I pulled Masen toward us.
"Happy Birthday, Masen!" we cheered together and gave him nine spankings.
"And a pinch to grow an inch," I said.
"Not the pinch!" he screeched.
Jumping off the bed, Masen continued. "You're mean." He pouted and ran out the door.
"Oh, come on, Mase." I giggled with Edward.
We could hear him running down the stairs as he continued to yell it was his birthday. "Come on, it's time to get up. Can you call Tanya and ask her to pick up the cake on her way to the beach?" I asked.
"Yeah," he answered with a big yawn.
I walked into the bathroom and took the quickest shower I could. Since we were going to the beach there was no point in spending time on my hair, so I just put it up in a pony tail.
Entering the big walk- in closet, I grabbed my red bandeau and matching red bottoms. I put them on with a black cover-up dress and slipped on my flip flops before leaving my bedroom.
Edward was downstairs with Masen eating Cinnamon Swirl cereal. I only bought the sugary cereal on the kids' birthdays and for Edward, because he loved Cinnamon Swirl cereal just like his son.
"Hey good looking," Edward greeted with a wink.
I rolled my eyes along with Masen who said, "Dad, do you always have to act so weird?"
"How is saying your mother is good looking weird?" Edward asked, intrigued. He crossed his arms over his chest.
Masen gave Edward a sarcastic look and replied with attitude. "It's weird, Dad." The way Masen said it was almost like Edward should know this by now.
Edward huffed and stood up from the table. "Come back to me in seven years and let me know if saying that to a woman is weird."
Masen rolled his eyes and went back to eating his breakfast while Edward rinsed his bowl. Edward kissed my forehead before he ran up the stairs.
"You excited for your birthday party?" I asked Masen.
"Yes," he squealed with a grin.
Edward came downstairs five minutes later in his navy blue swim trunks and white tank top. I had Masen wash his dish and feed the animals while Edward and I loaded his truck.
"Did you call Tanya?" I asked him once everything except for Masen—was in the truck.
"Yeah, she said she would be there in about an hour with the cake." He wiped the sweat off his forehead.
"She better be," I mumbled under my breath.
Walking back into the house, I put Brownie in her kennel where she promptly curled up in a corner and fell asleep. "Ready to go, Mase?" I asked.
"Yes!" He fist pumped and ran out the front door.
I made a final check to make sure we had everything before I locked up the house and we took off.
The beach was semi-crowded this morning—some families, but mostly teenagers. Edward started bringing our things down to the sand while I sprayed Masen with sunscreen. He was so bouncy; I knew he wanted to go into the water. It was fairly warm for ten in the morning.
"All right, you're all good, Mase." I smiled and he ran down to the water.
I pulled the big bag of beach towels out of the truck and brought them down to our spot on the sand. Edward had the chairs all set up, so I placed the bags right next to them. We continued going back and forth until all of our stuff was set up. I knew my sister, Rose's family, my parents, Edward's parents, and hopefully Tanya would be arriving soon.
Speaking of Tanya, I should probably send her a text again. She should have already picked up the cake.
Are you almost here? ~ Mom
I waited for her reply for about a minute before my phone chimed.
I will be there in less than five minutes. ~ T
I put my phone away in one of the beach bags before I applied sun screen to myself. I skipped my back, knowing Edward would be eager to help me with that.
Edward came back down the path after parking his truck in the lot. I raised the sun tan lotion and without even having to ask him, he knew what I needed.
Edward squirted the lotion into his hand before applying it to my back. He massaged it into my skin until it was thoroughly absorbed. We switched places and I rubbed some into his back before he finished putting it on the rest of his body.
Five minutes later, Tanya arrived driving Demetri's Porsche. That was just was she needed—who drives a Porsche at the age of eighteen?
She got out of the car and came down walking down in her little bikini, with no cake. I rushed over to her before Masen could see her.
"Tanya, where is the cake?" I demanded in a hushed tone.
She looked at me as if I was crazy. "What cake?" she asked.
"Masen's birthday cake. You were supposed to pick it up this morning." I huffed.
"Oh, yeah," she exclaimed. "I forgot." She shrugged.
I bit my tongue instead of lashing out at her. I took a deep breath. "Tanya, how could you possibly forget? Your father sent you that text about an hour ago."
She rolled her eyes. "Demetri I were in the middle of something when I replied and then I realized the time and left."
I was getting ready to have a major screaming fit with her, but then my little boy shouted her name.
"Momma, Tannie came," he exclaimed in excitement and came running up the hill.
"See, Mom, it's a pleasure to have me here." She smirked.
"Happy Birthday, Masen," Her happy tone was obviously false, but Masen was unaware of it.
The one thing that hurt the most was watching how hard Masen tried to get his sister's approval, and how she played the part of being a good sister in front of people, but at home she could care less.
Edward came toward us once he saw Tanya, but Tanya and Masen quickly went down to the water. "What's wrong?" he asked.
"She forgot the cake because when you sent the text she was apparently fooling around with Demetri!" I fumed.
Edward let out a chuckle; he was acting like he knew this would happen. "It's a good thing I thought ahead, and asked my parents to get the cake." He smiled.
Relief flooded my body. "How did you know?" I asked him.
"Bella, Tanya only thinks about herself. I sent her a text knowing that she would make an excuse not to get it, so I called my mother when you were in the shower and asked her if she could pick it up," he explained.
"You don't know how much I love you right now." My smile was so big my face was starting to hurt. I jumped into his arms and gave him a big kiss on his lips.
"Well, I think a little nookie tonight would be a great reward." He wiggled his eyebrows.
"For once can you think of anything else besides sex?" I sighed and brushed the stray hairs off his forehead.
"Nope," he answered.
"Come on, horny boy." I dragged him back toward the kids.
"Horny boy? Last time I checked I wasn't a little boy anymore." He chuckled.
"Edward, shut up." I laughed, pinching his side.
Masen was playing in the water while trying to get Tanya's attention. She kept waving him off, wanting to tan instead of building a sandcastle.
If she didn't plan on playing with him on his birthday, she shouldn't have come. I walked over to her and she rolled her eyes. "What?" she asked in a bitchy tone.
"It is your brother's birthday. You are going to play with him and have fun, even if you don't like it. Do you understand?" I demanded in a calm tone.
"Fine." She huffed and got up. "Masen, want to build a sandcastle?" She asked in a sickly sweet tone.
I rolled my eyes, wanting to smack some sense into her before going over to the cooler and grabbing a bottle of chilled water.
Twenty minutes later, everyone had arrived. The children were all playing together, Edward and the guys were playing a ridiculous horseshoe game, and the girls and I were setting up the trays of food.
"Is Tanya excited about prom?" Vanessa asked me once we were sitting in the lounge chairs.
"I wouldn't know." I sighed. "She is never home. She sees Demetri's parents more than us." I got a little teary eyed.
"Oh, Bella," Vanessa comforted me.
"I always dreamed of going prom shopping and doing all the fun things with my daughter. I didn't get to have the nice big prom because I was at home with a two-year-old."
"Bella, one day she will look back and realize how much you and Edward sacrificed. She needs to make mistakes now and learn from them." Vanessa gave me a tight lipped grin before going to give our father some barbecue chips. If my mother caught my father eating chips, all hell would break loose.
I walked over to the cooler and grabbed a beer. A smile appeared on my face as I watched Masen having a great time with his cousins.
"Smiling about the naughty things we're doing tonight?" Edward wrapped his arms around my stomach.
"Not every thought of mine swirls around you." I laughed.
He pulled away and put a hand over his heart. "You wound me, woman. Absolutely wound me."
I grabbed his arm and tugged him toward me. Standing up on my tippy toes I gave him a chaste kiss and left him.
Besides Tanya forgetting the cake, everything else was perfect. Masen loved his dragon cake, the attention of his cousins, and his gifts. His eyes were glowing with excitement and nothing could remove that big cheesy smile from his face. Of course after he opened gifts and we sang happy birthday, Tanya left, claiming she had to go do some last minute prom things. Edward and I made sure that she knew she better be home tonight or she wouldn't be going to the prom. We would both make sure of it.
The rest of our day at the beach was spent letting the kids play in the water before we packed it up and called it a night.
"Did you have a lot of fun today, Buddy?" I asked Masen as I tucked him in bed.
His eyes were wide. "Yes, it was awesome. I liked that Tannie came today and she was really nice to me." He was very animated. "I wish she would play with me more," he mumbled and squeezed his teddy bear tighter against his chest.
I ran my fingers through his hair. "I know, Bud."
I gave him a quick kiss on the cheek before I left and headed to my bedroom to my sex-crazed husband.
As soon as I entered, I was surprised to see Edward was half asleep. Maybe I could actually go to bed without my husband pawing my clothes off for once—not that I was complaining.
Getting into the bed, Edward seemed to be more alert. "Ready to get on Mr. Cullen's wild ride?" he whispered.
"Edward, you are half asleep."
His eyes were still closed. "You know how I get when you keep me waiting."
"I know," I said, swatting his hands away from my nightgown.
"Honey, you are half asleep. Can't this wait until later?" I asked.
"Hop on, baby," he groaned and tried to pull me on top of him.
"No. I'm tired and you aren't even awake. For all I know you are sleep talking."
He pressed his hips against mine. "Does this feel like I am asleep?" he asked.
I groaned and pushed myself off of him. "Not tonight."
Rolling on my side of the bed, I was surprised that I didn't get a reply out of him. I turned my head to find him passed out with his mouth wide open. I would never tell him that he quietly snored, partly because he would never believe me and he would argue that I snore—which I don't.
~AHDN~AHDN~AHDN~AHDN~AHDN~AHDN~
"Tanya, are you almost ready?" I asked, knocking on her door.
"I will be downstairs in five minutes." She huffed.
I sighed and walked downstairs. Instead of including me in this big day, she ignored me. She was my only daughter and I wanted to be there for her. Throughout the whole day all I heard were other mothers talking about their daughter's dresses and what they were doing for their children. It won't be as fun when Masen goes to prom; all he needs is a tux. Today I took Tanya to the nail and hair salon and she acted as if I was invisible. It didn't help that Demetri gave her his credit card and she used it. It was such a low blow to Edward and me.
When I asked to see her dress, she said I could see it when she put it on. All I got to do was follow her around like a little puppy. We were driving her to Demetri's house; she and her friends would be meeting there for pictures before they left in a limo bus. Of course she was staying in a hotel tonight— it didn't matter that Edward and I didn't approve.
"All right, let's go." Tanya came down the stairs. She looked gorgeous. Her hair was brushed off to the side in a curly pony tail and her make-up was elegant looking. She was wearing beautiful diamonds that Didyme gave her—another thing to throw in my face. Her dress was long and tight-fitting. The gold colored sparkles made her look tan.
"You look beautiful." I smiled.
"Well duh." She motioned to herself.
"Lose the fucking attitude, Tanya," Edward growled.
Tanya ignored him and walked out the door, Edward following her. Masen came over to me and gave me a hug. "You look pretty too, Momma."
This child always knew how to make me smile. "Thanks, Mase."
We got in the car and took off without a word. I could feel the anger rolling off of Edward's shoulders. He should know by now that Tanya acting like she was better than us was nothing new.
Once we arrived at the Volturi's home, Tanya quickly got out of the car. "Have fun…" She had already disappeared before I could say anything else.
Tanya socialized with her friends, leaving the three of us to find someone to talk to. I didn't really know any of her friends; she never let them come to our house and she never mentioned them to us.
I smiled at the other parents and nodded my head when they talked about helping their daughters getting ready, even though Tanya deliberately excluded me from her preparations.
Edward snapped some pictures while I stood back with Masen. Tanya was so different with her friends. She was happy and nice to them, something she never was at home. When the limo driver said it was time to go, the children all piled in after saying good-bye to their parents—all except Tanya.
Edward wrapped his arm around my shoulder as he led us back to his truck. "Come on, Bella."
I could feel the tears brimming in my eyes. "Momma, I think Daddy and I should build a tent tonight and we can watch all your favorite movies. We can even make popcorn."
Pulling Masen close to me, I gave him a big hug. "That sounds perfect, Mase."
He got out the pad of paper Edward always carried around in his truck and started drawing plans for different kinds of tents they could make.
"Oh, we can move the couch over here," he said, going on and on.
I watched his reflection in the truck's mirror as he continued to draw his plans. He was my little ray of sunshine.
This was the last chapter. The next two chapters are Bella's Epilogue and Tanya's epilogue.
