E.P.O.V.

"Holy Shit" was all I heard when I opened the door. I had just had sex with Bella in the doctor's sleeping quarters, I knew that I'd never be able to sleep in there again without thinking of what we had just done. It was mind blowing how I craved this woman and every part of her body all of the time that I just couldn't help myself but to be inside of her every chance I got. I was brought back to reality quite quickly now though, when I saw the man before me.

"Ummm, Dad, what are you doing here?" I asked him before I realized that Bella was standing behind me turning every shade of pink and red that you can imagine. I grabbed her hand and pulled her to my side.

"Well, I should be asking you the same thing, shouldn't I?" my dad said as he looked over and saw Bella standing next to me. "Hello Bella. It's nice to see you again."

"Uh, hi Dr Cullen. It's nice to see you too." Bella whispered.

My actions were so thoughtless. I could have gotten Bella into a lot of trouble by doing what we had just done if someone else had caught us. I really didn't enjoy being caught by my father but it was better him than if one of the ER nurses had walked in here.

"Well, Edward, I know you told your mother on the phone the other day that you had met a beautiful woman that you were head over heels for but I had no idea that you had also found one of the smartest little lab techs around!" he smiled at me. I was thankful that he wouldn't try to embarrass us any further when I'm sure he knew what we had been up to just moments ago. "How are you liking the new job Bella?" my father asked her.

"Uhh, it's really great Dr. Cullen." Bella said to him. I felt a pang of jealousy. I didn't like her calling him that. I only like her to say that to me but I knew that this was inevitable seeing as how my father was a doctor too. "Your son here has been showing me around and helping to get me acquainted with the facility." the little minx said with a smile in my direction.

"Is he now. Well, Edward to answer your question I'm here because I was called in for a surgical consult for this morning. Your mother and I came in last night and we were going to surprise you and take you out for dinner this evening before your shift. She really misses you." he said sending a new wave over me, guilt.

"Oh thanks dad. Oh shit, Bella and I have plans tonight to go to dinner with some friends of hers." I said remembering that we were suppose to go to dinner with Jacob and Leah tonight after they fix her truck.

"That's okay Edward. You go to dinner with your parents and I can go with Jake and Leah. We can do dinner and you can meet them some other time. I don't want to take you away from time with your parents" Bella said.

My heart stopped and I couldn't imagine being without her for even a little while. I think my dad sensed my sudden tension and he spoke up right away.

"I have an idea." my father said. "Why don't we all go out together. This way we can get to know Bella a little better and Edward can meet your friends."

Way to save the day dad!

"That sounds good to me if it's okay with you Bella." I said to her.

"Yeah, that'll work. Now if you'll excuse me I better get back to work now." Bella smiled at me and then headed for the door.

"Bella wait." I said before she reached for the handle. I walked up to her and placed a hand on one side of her face and then gently kissed on her on the cheek and whispered in her ear. "I will see after work okay."

She smiled up at me and then blushed when she looked over my shoulder and saw my father smiling at us. "See you then." she said and then quickly gave me a peck on the lips before turning and walking out of the lounge.

I stood there just smiling as she walked out. I felt as if I was walking on clouds and Bella was my angel to keep me floating in the air. She was everything I needed and everything I wanted and I had to make sure that she new as much.

Just then I noticed someone coughing and trying to get my attention. "Edward, hello earth to Edward." I heard.

"Oh yeah, Dad." I smiled and turned to face him. He knew what was going on. He definitely wasn't stupid. My mom and dad had a very active sex life and I'm sure that he and my mom had found a place or two in Port Angeles hospital to meet up on one of his long shifts over the years. This was definitely not something that I wanted to think about though. "So when did you and mom get in last night?" I asked trying to steer the subject away from where I'm sure my dad was headed.

"We got in around 6pm last night and we're staying over at the Hilton. So how long have you been in love with Bella?" my dad smirked at me and asked out of no where.

"What?" I asked him when I'm sure my jaw hit the floor. "I've only known here for a week Dad. I'm not in love with her." I knew that I was but I didn't want to say it out loud yet and scare her away.

"Oh yes son. Keep telling yourself that but we both know better than that. She is a wonderful young woman by the way. Did she tell you that I worked with her while she was doing her clinicals in Port Angeles?"

"Yes, she did mention that. She also mentioned that you did her gallbladder surgery." I felt a little more jealousy creep up knowing that my father had seen a little more of Bella than I would like.

"Yes, but I wouldn't be able to tell you that now would I with all of the HIPPA rules and regulations." he said with his little crooked grin. This is the same one that Emmett and I have inherited. "So tell you what, why don't you and Bella and her friends meet your mother and I at our hotel tonight at 5 o'clock and we'll head to dinner from there. Sound good?"

"Sounds great dad. I better get back before people start looking for me." I said to him. He pulled me in for a hug.

"I really do like Bella a lot son. I think she's good for you. She smart enough to keep you on your toes and she's got a good heart. I got to know her a little bit in Port Angeles and I know that she has some trust issues so don't give her any reason not to trust you!" he said in his fatherly voice. "I know you're my son but I would have to hurt you if you ever did anything to harm that girl."

I just laughed. "Don't worry Dad."

He patted me on the shoulder and headed up to the Surgical wing to do his consult. I headed back to work to try to make it through the last hour of my shift.

About an hour and a half later I was finally getting out of the Emergency Room and heading to the lounge. When I got there I found Bella leaning against a table with her head down and sound asleep. She was exhausted and I felt a little guilty knowing that I helped to make her that way. Between all of the physical attention and the fact that it was the first night back after the weekend I knew she would probably be exhausted. I smiled at her and walked over. I pushed the little bit of hair off her face that was laying on her cheek and leaned down and kissed her on the cheek and worked my way down to her neck. I heard her moan in response and my pants got tight again. She slowly started to stir awake and then she turned to look up at me and smiled.

"Good morning beautiful. You ready to go home?" I asked her.

"Only if I'm going home with you." she replied.

My heart stopped immediately. I suddenly had thoughts of her coming home to our home with little kids running around the back yard and having barbeques with the family on the weekend.

"Always." was my only reply.

She stood up and we made our way back to the apartment. When we got there we walked to the elevator. Bella looked up at me and she looked as if she wanted to ask me something but then she turned away. We stood there and waited for the elevator. The doors then opened and we stepped in. Then I realized what Bella was probably going to ask me. Without hesitation I pushed the button for her floor and her floor only. She looked up at me and smiled. I wasn't about to ask her 'your place or mine'. I decided that I would walk her to her door and if she invited me to stay I would be ecstatic and if not I would go back to my own apartment pouting.

We walked off the elevator and headed to her door. I stopped her right before she put her key in the door and kissed her tenderly.

"Would you stay with me today?" Bella asked me between kisses.

"If you want me to." I told her.

"Always" she said using my answer for her before. My heart leapt at this. I knew that I was going to have to tell her my feelings for her and soon. If I didn't tell her soon I knew that it may slip at the wrong moment and I wanted every moment with her to be just right.

I hadn't told her yet but I had managed to pick up tickets online last night for the Nickelback concert that was coming up on August 29th in Quincy at the Gorge Ampitheatre. I got front row center. I paid a lot for the tickets but I didn't care because I wanted the best for her. I really wanted to get tickets for Daughtry, especially after I heard her singing in her shower, but his concert tour didn't start until October. I was planning on getting those also though.

"So Bella, do you have any plans for next weekend?" I asked her.

"Nope. Why do you?" she asked hesitantly.

"Well I do if you agree to go with me." I smiled at her.

"And where would we be going?" she asked.

"I was thinking that on Saturday we could go out for an early dinner and then head down to Quincy for a concert. I heard that Nickelback was going to be there and I happen to have a couple of tickets.." before I could finish what I was saying Bella was jumping up and down in the air. She was screaming too. I took that as a good sign. "So does that mean you will go with me?" I asked her.

"Are you kidding me? You are aren't you? I mean of course I'll go. Oh my god Edward you are the best boyfr…" she stopped herself.

I smiled at her and asked teasingly "I'm the best what Bella? You know it is okay to say it."

She leaned up and wrapped her arms around my neck and said "You are the best boyfriend that anyone could ask for." And with that she attached her lips to mine and kept me there for a few minutes just kissing me tenderly.

She finally pulled back for air and smiled at me. "You coming to bed?"

"Lead the way my love." I told her.

We got into bed and just cuddled with each other. I enjoyed the feel of her in my arms and I didn't know if I would ever be able to sleep without her again. I was growing very attached to her and I was really starting to get concerned that her friends wouldn't like me and if they didn't would Bella still want to be with me. My worrying finally slowed and I fell asleep with the love of my life wrapped around me.

B.P.O.V.

I woke up to my alarm at 2pm. It was a little later than I had planned to sleep but I knew that Jake and Leah would be busy with my truck anyway and I would just get in the way if I tried to help. When I tried to get up I felt Edward's arms snake around me even tighter. The man had a death grip on my abdomen. Where did he think I was going to go. I mean hell, I didn't know if I would ever be able to sleep alone again after being with him. That thought really frightened me. What if he didn't want to be with me as much as I wanted to be with him? What if he decided that he didn't want to do this anymore? And worse, what if he found someone else? I don't know if I'd ever be able to function again if that happened. Suddenly I felt his hand come up to stroke my cheek.

"Penny for your thoughts." he said.

"Oh, nothing." I lied. I didn't want to let him know about all of my insecurities.

"Bella, I can see that you are thinking about something that has you worried. What is it?" he asked again.

How could I tell the man that I love that I would die without him. That my world would cease to exist if he was no longer in it. I couldn't tell him that, could I? No, now is not the time.

"Bella?"

"Oh, I was just thinking how much I like waking up with your arms around me." That wasn't at total lie. I do love waking up that way I just didn't want him to know how desperate I was to have him there.

"Really, I'm glad." he said with a smile. "I guess we better get up now and go and check on your truck."

"Yeah, hopefully Jake and Leah can get it going again." I said.

"Jake and Leah?" he questioned.

"Yeah, Jake and Leah have their own auto mechanic shop back in Forks. The were both grease monkeys in high school and they opened it up shortly after we graduated. They are actually quite good at what they do." I said like a proud parent.

"Well lets not keep them waiting then." he said.

We got out of bed and I went straight for the shower. Edward told me that he was going to go up to his apartment for a quick shower and to get changed. I gave him a kiss on the lips and he moaned after we separated and then left for his own apartment. I heard him mutter on his way out "It's gonna have to be a cold shower now." I just chuckled and hurried to get myself ready.

A half an hour later Edward was back at my door looking like the greek god that he is waiting for me. I hurried up and threw on a pair of my favorite tennis shoes and we headed down to the parking garage. When we got there I couldn't help but laugh. I started walking toward my truck and I saw Jake holding a flashlight while Leah was underneath the truck messing with something.

"Are you making her do all the dirty work?" I asked. Suddenly Jake turned around and saw me. He set the light down and in four long strides he was next to me and lifting me in the air spinning me around in circles.

"Bella. I've missed you so much." Jake said.

I looked up and saw Edward standing awkwardly off to the side. He almost looked jealous. I kind of liked it.

"Bella girl, you look gorgeous." I heard next.

"Well you don't look half bad yourself girl!" I said to Leah who was now walking towards us. "Is he making you do all the work?"

"Well you know if you want it done right you've got to do it yourself." she said towards Jacob.

"Oh woman, you did not just go there." Jacob said to her.

Leah walked up and gave me a huge hug. I didn't realize until now how much I've missed my friends. I felt a tear come to my eyes and tried to blink it away but Leah caught me.

"Don't you do it Bella because then you'll get me started and I won't be able to give you the news about your truck. Besides, you may want to save a few of those tears for the news I'm about to give you." Leah said.

"What news?" I asked.

"Well" Jake started. "You know Bells, we've fixed your truck several times for you, right?"

"Yeah." I said suspiciously.

Leah continued "Bella, I'm afraid it's time to send this hunk of junk to the big scrap heap in the sky." she said bluntly.

"What do you mean?" I asked.

"Well, there's just no way to fix it this time. Your transmission is gone again and the heads are leaking and it's going to cost a heck of a lot more that it's worth to fix it and that's not saying that we'd be able to." Jacob said.

I appreciated their honesty but I was sad. "Are you sure there's no way?" I asked them again. They both shook their heads. I hung my head down and then I felt two strong arms wrap around me.

"Are you okay honey?" Edward asked me.

"Yeah, I'll be okay. I think." I told him.

"And who is this?" Jacob asked in his big brotherly tone.

"Jacob this is Dr. Edward Cullen. My chauffeur and personal physician. Oh yeah and he's my boyfriend too." I looked at Jacob and gave him a warning look telling him to behave.

Edward held out his hand to Jacob. "It's nice to finally meet you Jacob. Bella has told me a lot about you."

"Yeah, I wish I could say the same." Jacob said in a somewhat icy tone.

"Hi Edward, I'm Leah. I'm Jake's fiancé slash business partner. Bella's told me a lot about you and I'm glad we've finally been able to meet."

"It's nice to meet both of you." Edward said.

The silence was awkward and I was ready to kill Jake when Leah spoke up. "So Bella, are you going to show us your apartment or no."

"Sure, follow me." I said grabbing Edward by the hand and leading everyone over to the elevator.

We went upstairs and I showed them around my apartment. We talked for a while about my new job and Edward and Jake seemed to start warming up to each other. They started to talk about football and Jake mentioned the Seahawks and that was all it took. Edward told him about Emmett and then he mentioned his season tickets and I knew that Edward had a new friend for life. I was going to have to watch Jacob closely now to make sure that he didn't move in on what I was hoping would be a few games that I would get to go to with Edward. Of course I would never ask Edward if I could go, but I was hoping that he would want to take me to a game or two.

"Well we should probably get going soon." Edward said. "I hope it's okay with you guys but my parents are in town for the day and they invited us all out for dinner."

"Sounds good to me." Leah said.

"Yup, let's go." Jacob said.

We headed down to Edward's car. Since my truck was now officially dead I was now going to have to rely on Edward for a while until I could find a suitable replacement. We sped off in Edward's Volvo and headed towards his parents hotel. When we got there I heard a familiar booming sound.

"Bella boo. How's my number one fan?" Emmett called out.

"I've been better." I told him. "I'm going to have to hold a funeral for my truck."

"Hello Bella." I heard Rosalie behind him. "It's nice to see you again."

"It's nice to see you too Rosalie." I said. Then it dawned on me. "What are you guys doing here?"

I turned around and saw Carlisle. I introduced the Cullen's to Jacob and Leah.

"I hope you guys don't mind but I invited Emmett and Rosalie since we don't get to see them very often." Carlisle said.

"I don't mind at all" I told him.

Just then I caught sight of a beautiful woman standing next to Edward's father. She had the same piercing green eyes that Edward had and she had the most beautiful face that I had ever seen.

"Bella, I'd like you to meet my mother, Esme Cullen." Edward said gesturing toward the beautiful woman.

"Mrs. Cullen, it's a pleasure to meet you. Edward has told me so much about you." I told her.

"Bella dear, please call me Esme. I'm so glad that we could finally meet. Edward has told me so much about you."

I glared at Edward wondering what it was that he had shared with his mother. As if he could read my mind he leaned down to my ear and said "Don't worry. It was all PG." he said with a smirk.

When everyone was finished with the introductions we headed off to dinner. I was really hoping that Jacob and Leah would get along well with the Cullen's because I really liked all of them and I felt like we were forming a new family. I love the Cullen's like my own family and I could definitely picture myself as part of theirs.

So here's the deal. I am at 111 reviews and I have had over 7,000 hits on this story! (which is totally and completely amazing and gives me goose bumps). So I'm asking for a little favor. I am leaving for Florida tomorrow with my family and wanted to get this chapter up before I left because I will be gone for 9 days. Here's my proposition: I would really, really like to get to 150 reviews by the time I get back. The person that gets me there will have a little supporting role in my next chapter! (maybe Dr. Cullen will have to perform a little mouth to mouth resuscitation on you)! Keep reviewing and I will let that person know who they are! Remember review whether it's Good, Bad or Otherwise. Please let me know. I know this chapter probably wasn't as good as some of the others but I promise the next will be quite lemony!
