Chapter Six:
B Pov
Edward and I lay in bed for what seemed like for ever after we woke up. My back was pressed against his chest and he had laced his fingers through mine. I felt like I was flying. "What are you thinking?" Edward murmured in my ear. "About how unbelievably perfect you are, I keep thinking that I'm going to wake up and this was all really just a dream" I turned over and smiled at him.
He pressed his lips to mine. "What are you thinking?" I asked him in return. "For starters, how much I love you as well, and I can't help but think that you're so tiny that if I'm to rough you'll break" He nuzzled into my neck and pressed a kiss to the small birthmark I had there.
"God Edward, I'm not that frail, I can take care of myself" I scoffed jokingly. "I know, but it makes me feel like I need to take care of you, I want to take care of you, I like you needing me" He explained. I ran my fingers through his hair. "I like needing you" I whispered against his lips.
"You're too perfect for me. Bella" He whispered back to me. I blushed and shook my head. I would have protested against that, but I didn't want to ruin the mood. "When should we go back down there? Everyone's probably wondering where we are" I asked him. "Never, I wanna stay locked up in this room with you for the rest of my life" He hugged me tightly. "If we do that, when are we gonna go out on dates like to the movies, the park, we could attempt ice skating...even though I might break my neck" I giggled.
"Just you wait Isabella Swan, one day, I'm going to marry you" Edward grinned crookedly at me even though his eyes were serious, I knew he wasn't playing around, and I couldn't wait until he did. "And I'll say yes right after I cry my eyes out from happiness" I promised him. He leaned back over and kissed me again.
"Alright, let's take a shower and get down there" Edward sighed as he got out of bed. I followed him to the bathroom, my cheeks burning red in embarrassment. Even after what we had just done, I was completely shy to him now. I closed my legs extra tight and wrapped my arms around my chest.
Edward unabashedly leaned into the shower and turned it on, showing his really perfect ass off to me. It made me blush harder when he stood up and I saw his really toned stomach. My cheeks felt like they were burning. "Come on Bella, let's take a shower" Edward held his hand out to me. He looked completely innocent except for the fact that he was completely naked and had a very smug look on his face.
I cautiously took a step forward and placed my hand in his. He stepped into the walk in shower and helped me in as well. He grabbed a wash cloth off of a shelf inside and put some soap on it. Once it was lathered, he began washing my back. The hot water felt really nice and Edward's hands were really relaxing, he was kneading my shoulders. I almost fell asleep because it felt so good.
"Bella love, you must stay awake. You can go back to bed after we finish" His voice wasn't helping, it was soothing and velvety and even, he was like a walking lullaby for a child. "You're making me relax too much, and your voice is too soothing" I stumbled over my words; I could barely form a coherent sentence.
"I'll let you sleep" He nodded. We hurried with our shower and the next thing I know Edward is helping me into one of his shirts and tucking me in. "Sleep tight" He kissed my forehead and walked out the room.
Edward
I tucked Bella in and kissed her forehead before leaving. I knew she was still tired after four hours of sleep. I ran down the steps and into the dining room. Everyone was sitting down to eat. "Good evening" I greeted everyone as I walked in. "Where's Bella" Emmett asked immediately. "She was a little tired after being out all day so she's taking a nap" I explained. Well, she was tired, but it wasn't from being out.
I hid my grin as I sat down next to Jasper. He was always good with people so I know he knew that I was feeling pretty damn confident now. He glanced at me and raised his eyebrows with a tiny smirk before turning back to the plate in front of him.
"So Edward, what did you guys do up there. It's been almost half the day" He asked casually. Damn him. "We talked some until she fell asleep, I guess I fell asleep too" I shrugged. I began eating until Alice said something. "Really? I went up there and that certainly didn't sound like talking and snoring up there" She smirked. Shit.
Emmett was sitting right there. I simply ignored her comments and went on eating. I glanced up to see Esme glancing at me worriedly. I concentrated on my plate and ate my grilled chicken. "In fact, it was more like...moans?" She continued. "Alice" I warned. I was not trying to get killed by Emmett tonight, maybe tomorrow when the amazement of the fact that Bella and I had made love wore off, but not tonight.
"Come on Eddie, I was a little worried about you two, all I heard was grunting and moaning, what were you doing" She teased. "Mary Alice, not now" I bit out. She knew I was serious when I used her first name. She backed down and ate her meal. I snuck a peak at Emmett. I think he knew what was going on by the brooding look on his face.
Dinner went without anymore interruption and I was thankful for that. It was my turn to clear the table, and that's when Bella came down. She walked sleepily down the stairs in the shirt I put her in and a pair of my shorts. She looked adorable in my clothes, which meant she would have to wear them more often.
She shuffled her feet up to me and smiled before yawning. "Hi" She mumbled. "Hey" I kissed her softly. "Hi, did I miss dinner?" She asked cutely. "Yeah, I'll heat up some of the left over's for you" I nodded and took out the containers. I put a piece of chicken on some foil along with rice and broccoli and placed it in the toaster oven.
"Why not just use the microwave?" Bella asked me. "Because, microwaves suck all the nutrition out of the food. This is much better" I explained to her as I turned it onto warm. I turned to Bella who was sitting on the counter and kissed her. I couldn't get enough of her lips; there was something about her that made her undeniably irresistible.
She smiled at me and opened her legs to wrap the m around my waist. She pulled me tighter against her body and deepened the kiss. Her tongue ran across my lip before pressing insistently until I opened up for her. My hands drifted to the back of her neck and her waist, holding her tightly. "Okay guys, I know you're dating but I don't want to see all that" Emmett broke through the heat of the moment.
I nipped Bella's lip and pulled away from her-tugging rather hard to get out of her legs-which were surprisingly strong. She pouted and looked at Emmett. He was grinning madly, clearly happy that he broke us away from each other. "Emmett, isn't Rosalie waiting for you or something, don't you have something to do" She sneered lightly.
Her brother's eyes went wide. "Oh shit, Rose is gonna be so pissed" He groaned and reached for his phone. He pressed her speed dial and pressed the phone to his ear. "Rosie babe, I'm so sorry, I'll be over as soon as I can" Emmett began rambling into the phone as he walked from the room.
I looked to Bella to see her grinning like mad. I shook my head at her and ruffled her hair. She grimaced at me and smoothed down her hair. I kissed her nose and smiled.

It was a couple days after Edward and I first made love. I was absolutely blissful. There was nothing anyone could say or do to take me off my high. I danced (something I don't do) around the kitchen as I started preparing dinner. I hummed a tune while putting the fish that Charlie caught in the oven. I washed my hands and almost floated into the living room.
"Hello big brother" I sighed dreamily. Okay, so I guess Edward sneaking into my room in the middle of the night and most of that time turning into a repeat of our first time was really not helping. Kids at school thought I was doped up on drugs. But I'm just ridiculously happy.
"Bells, are you okay, you seem a little...flighty" He asked me. "I'm just wonderful" God, when did I go from happy to chipper? He stood up and pressed his hand to my forehead. "You feel okay; maybe you should just lie down a little before dinner. I'll take the fish out for you" He began leading me towards the stairs until I put a hand on his chest.
"Emmett, I feel fine. I'm just...elated" I assured him. He nodded skeptically but sat down. The doorbell rung and I opened the door with a grin on my face. "Good evening Rosalie" I greeted her, moving aside so she could step into the house. "Well, somebody's lost there V-card" She smirked at me. My happy mood was officially back to worrisome, skeptical, snippy Bella.
Was she trying to make Emmett have a heart attack? I turned and looked to him. Thank goodness his eyes were glued to the television. If not, he would have been yelling his head off at me and...Having the talk with me. That thought right there made me shudder.
I turned to Rosalie who was looking smug as usual. "Can you shut-up, I don't want Emmett to have a heart attack" I hissed at her. She smiled wickedly at me and sauntered over to Emmett. "Hey Emmy, Bella has big news for you" She giggled. He turned his attention to her and then to me. "What is it Bells?" He asked.
"Nothing, I have...dinner to prepare" I stammered. "Bella, don't be so modest, Emmy-bear, did you know Bella lost her V-card?" She asked him saucily. I think all the built up tension from her finally made me erupt. "What the fuck is your problem Rosalie, why are you such bitch?!" I shouted at her. I noticed Emmett slipping away from the living room and upstairs.
"My problem?! My problem is you, you're a whiny bitch who can't do anything for yourself and its annoying?!" She shouted back at me. "And that gives you the right to be a bitch? Because you don't like someone you're allowed to tease and taunt people just because you can? I hope someone kicks you off your high horse real soon so you can face reality because most people, unlike us aren't going to stand for it" I sneered at her.
"I was raped! You have no idea what he did to me!" She yelled. Okay, I was taken aback by that one, I admit it. "And that gives you the right to treat people like that? What, did he tell you what a pretty piece of ass you were? Or how good he was gonna fuck you? Did he grunt in your ear, asking you if that was the way you liked it? Oh better yet, did he hold a gun to your ear and threaten to shoot you and fuck your dead body if you moved one more time? Or, did he take out a knife and press it to your neck and threaten to press harder if you didn't shut up" I taunted her in a low voice.
I saw the look of shame on Rosalie's face. "No, he didn't. And hey, guess what Rosalie, I was raped too. And I have nightmares almost every night. But, you don't see me telling people they're nothing compared to me because they haven't been through what I have. You're a bitch because you want to be, you just use being raped as an excuse for your behavior. And you know what; I wouldn't be surprised if Emmett decided that your attitude wasn't worth being with you and decided to leave you" I snapped at her before walking into the kitchen.
I felt so much better now! It was truly unbelievable how telling off your brother's girlfriend could boost your confidence!
M.O.
