Chapter Four:
Bella Pov
Edward and I have been dating for more than a month now. Christmas was coming up and I had no clue what to get him. We were going to spend Saturday lazing away at his house watching movies as Emmett said, "Doing lovey-dovey stuff that all mushy couples do" then he proceeded to tell Edward how whipped he was.
So, here we were eating chocolate covered cherries on the couch, soft classical music playing in the background. I giggled as some of the chocolate sauce dribbled down Edward's chin. I became bold enough to lick it away. "You taste delicious Mr. Cullen" I grinned and pecked his lips. "Not as delicious as you" He murmured against my lips, pecking them softly.
He picked up a cherry and dipped in some chocolate before pressing it to my lips. I took the cherry into my mouth and sucked the chocolate off before eating it. Edward stared at my lips as I chewed. I smirked at him. "What?" I asked. "You're just so beautifully sensual it amazes me" He told me, staring into my eyes. Then, he leaned down and pressed his lips to mine. His tongue ran over my bottom lip, begging for entrance. I opened my mouth, bringing my hand up to his hair, massaging his scalp.
His tongue shot into my mouth, searching around, coaxing mine to battle his. Finally began to fight, trying to make him submit. Edward placed his hands on my waist and flipped us over. His weight on me made me moan involuntarily. He broke away from the kiss, his lips trailing down my neck, sucking right above my collar.
"Edward" I moaned. "Oh God Bella, I love it when you say my name like that" He groaned against my neck. "Edward" I moaned again, I ground my hips against his, pressing them hard to relieve some of my ache.
Then, he stopped. He froze against me. He was like a statue. "Edward?" I whispered his name. He looked at me; I could see the lust in his eyes. "We have to stop, before we go too far" He told me. God bless his gentlemanly soul. I nodded. "Edward, you convincing me isn't working with you pressed against me like that" I told him. He blushed and rolled off me.
We sat looking at each other and I eventually fell asleep.
"Hello! Hello! Helloooo!" I woke up to. I opened my eyes to see Edward opening his too. He immediately grew annoyed. 'Alice" He growled loudly. "Oh, hey Eddie" A little pixie popped her head into the room. "Do you think you could ever enter the house quietly? You woke Bella up" He snapped at her.
"Well excuse me for being happy this afternoon. I just got back from a date with Jasper, who takes me places instead of just lying around the house all day like an old couple like some people" Alice smiled smugly.
Edward grunted. "Well, I hope you're happy to know that you just ruined our date" He informed her. How had she done that? We were just sleeping. "What ever Edward, I have clothes to put away. Great seeing you Bells, I look forward to the shopping excursion I have planned for tomorrow" She grinned at me. "Alice, you're not supposed to go out on Sunday's. It's a holy day. In the south the mall wouldn't even be open" I groaned.
"Fine, you win this time, but I'm snagging you for next Saturday morning" She told me, finality in her tone. She hopped up the stairs and I turned to Edward. "Do you think you could get me out of it?" I gave him the puppy dog eyes. "Fine, but just remember you owe me" He grinned crookedly at me and pecked my lips. "So, do you want to stay the night" He asked shyly.
"I would, but Charlie would never allow that" I frowned. "Tell him that Esme wants to spend some girl time with you since your mom is still in Phoenix, she doesn't want you to miss out on anything" He murmured on my neck, nipping slightly.
"I guess that works, I'll call him now" I agreed and took Edward's phone from his pocket. I dialed the house number and waited for someone to pick up. "Hello?" Emmett's voice flowed through the phone.
"Hey Emmett, put dad on the phone" I ordered him. "Hey Bells" Charlie said after a few moments. "Dad, is it alright if I stay at Edward's tonight?" I asked, letting that slight pleading tone into my voice. "I don't know Bells" Charlie began. "Please Dad, Esme wants me to because feels bad that Mom's all the way in Phoenix, and she wants me to have at least some of the mother daughter bonding" I begged.
I looked to Edward who was grinning at me like a fool. "Alright Bells, tell Esme I said thanks" Charlie sighed. I hung up the phone and busted out laughing. I can't believe he bought that, I'm the worst liar in the world!" I was practically howling with laughter.
We lay on the couch in fits of laughter, I was snorting and Edward was howling eventually we calmed down enough to breathe. "We should do something" He told me. "Like what?" I panted. "I could drive us up to Seattle and we could go to my mother's bistro" He suggested.
"W-Where your mother works? A-are you sure" I stammered. "Sure, she'll love you" He assured me with a kiss on the cheek. "We should go now" He smiled eagerly. "What am I supposed to wear? A bistro isn't somewhere you go to in jeans and a tank top" I scoffed. "I can't believe I'm saying this but...go ask Alice for something to wear" He blurted it out quickly.
It was like the time Emmett told me that Santa Claus wasn't real. I was horrified. "Alice...I can't, she's so much smaller than me, I wouldn't be able to fit one boob into her shirts!" I stuttered. I was coming up with any excuse not to go to Alice's room. I did once before, what a terrible experience.
I was in her room for almost three hours, she was playing 'Bella Barbie' and I refuse to be a life-size doll again, so no way. Then, Edward purred "You can fit one boob into my hand". I gave him a pointed look and he sighed.
"Fine, see if Esme has anything to wear. You two are about the same size" He suggested. I got off the couch and straightened my clothes out. I barely took a step when Edward's hand connected with my ass. I gave a squeal and jumped like ten feet in the air. I spun back to Edward who was relaxing like he never did anything. I rubbed my sore ass and continued up the stairs.
I got to the second floor and made my way to Esme and Carlisle's bedroom.
I knocked on the door and Carlisle opened it. "Hi Mr. Cullen, sorry to bother you" I mumbled. I always felt like a fool in his presence because he was just as beautiful as Edward. Actually, all the Cullen's were gorgeous. "Bella, I told you to call me Carlisle" He clucked his tongue. "Sorry, Carlisle, is Esme up here?" I blushed.
"Yes, come on in" He stepped from the doorway to allow me into the room. Esme was on the floor leaning against the bed with a sketch book in her lap. She looked rather concentrated as she drew...what ever it was she was drawing. "Esme" I called her name softly. She looked up at me and grinned. "Oh, hello Bella, what can I do for you?" She asked sweetly, standing up quickly.
"I'm really sorry to bother you, but Edward wants to take me to the bistro in Seattle and I have nothing to wear. He sent me up here to borrow something from you-if that's alright I mean" I stuttered through the whole thing. "Of course Bella, don't be so nervous, I'll see what I can find" She beamed at me, taking my hand gently and leading to her closet.
It was not nearly as big as Alice's, but it was rather large. In the end, I ended up with a white cotton button up shirt with a black belt to go around my stomach and nice jeans and my worst enemy...baby doll shoes with a three inch heel. I whimpered but thanked Esme and ushered myself to Edward's room to change.
I closed the door and locked it behind me, beginning to take off my shirt. "Why Bella, I never knew you were so eager to get your clothes off for me" I heard that amazing sexy tone say from the bed behind. I jumped and turned to see Edward sitting on the bed smirking. A blush rose to my cheeks as I held the shirt in front of me. I inched into the bathroom, shutting the door and continuing to change.
When I was done, I walked out, still blushing.
"Oh come on love, it wasn't that bad" Edward stood up and kissed my cheek. I looked at what he was wearing, he looked amazing. He had a dark blue button up and back slacks on as well as shiny black shoes.
Edward leaning towards my face, effectively breaking me from my trance. He was looking me straight in the eye and I felt myself becoming distracted again. "You're...dazzling me" I mumbled almost in a slur. He chuckled and I was dazzled even more.
"Let's get going, it's a bit of a drive" He murmured in my ear. Then, he wrapped his arm around my waist and led me to the car.
M.O.
We pulled up to a strip on a busy street in Seattle. Edward helped me from the car and led me to the Restaurant that wrapped around the block practically. We walked in and my senses were taken over by the delicious smell of the food. I sniffed lightly, taking more joy in the smell as I did. Edward walked up to the hostess and stood, waiting for her to get off the phone.
She hung up and turned to Edward with a huge smile on her face. "Eddie! It's so nice to see you" She cooed like she was talking to a baby. She looked to be in her early forties, maybe late thirties. "Hey, where's my mom" He grinned at her. "She's out back taking a break" The hostess told him. We walked through the kitchen, getting various greetings from the cooks and waiters. We went out the back door and I saw a beautiful woman with red hair standing there smoking a cigarette.
"Elizabeth!" Edward called, walking forward. She turned to him, dropping the cigarette and running to him. "Oh Eddie, how are you?!" She hugged him tightly. "Hey Ma, I'm good. I brought someone to meet you" He grinned widely. He motioned for me to come forward and I walked nervously.
"This is Bella, my girlfriend" He placed his hand on the small of my back and nudged me. I took a step and held out my hand. "It's nice to meet you Ms. Masen" I said shakily.
She shook my hand heartily. "It's so nice to meet you, Edward just blabs away about you on the phone, for hours on end" She told me with so much...eagerness. "He's told me a lot about you too" I grinned sheepishly.
"All good I hope" She eyed Edward testily. "Well...I did tell her about the fact that you eat like a cow and burp drunk and curse like a sailor" He smirked at her. Quicker than I could see, her hand shot out to grip his ear. "Ow Mom, I'm sorry, I was just kidding, you know playing around!" He whined, bending down to relieve some of the pressure.
"What else" She growled in his ear that was now growing red. "I love you?" He said in a questioningly innocent voice. Elizabeth nodded and released his ear. I could tell I was going to get along with her.
M.O.
