Bella P. O. V.
Edward and I just talked about unimportant things, up until there was a knock at the door.
"Shhhhh, it's Rose. I'll be back in a little bit," Edward told me, kissing my head before diving out the window.
Once he was gone, and I came back to my senses, I shook my head and told whoever it was to come in.
Rosalie entered.
"Hey," Rose said, waving.
"Hey," I replied.
"Hey, so I was wondering… hey, where's Edward?"
Oh, crap, I wasn't prepared to answer that.
"Uh, didn't you see him leave earlier?" I asked.
"Nope." Oh crap. She was suspicious. "But anyway, I was wondering what time you were planning to get up tomorrow, you know, to visit the Cullens?"
"Uh..." I was in shock that she didn't keep pressing me to tell her more. I finally snapped out of it and answered her. "Around 8, I guess."
"Okay, thanks," she called over her shoulder, because she was already out the door and practically halfway down the hall.
I breathed in a huge sigh of relief.
Edward was back; I heard him chuckle. "You had to think about that for a minute," he said, voice full of humor.
I looked over at him, rolled my eyes, and, with one finger, motioned for him to come over.
He laughed again, and pushed himself off of the side of the wall he was leaning against, and walked over to me, sitting on the edge of my bed.
The distance was killing me. I needed to touch him, to kiss him. So I did.
I crept up to him slowly, and sat up so I could reach his lips without so much effort, and began to lean in. He must've known what I was trying to do, because he began to lean in to me as well. It didn't take long for our lips to meet.
As always, the spark that ignited every time we kissed didn't fail to show up, and, as always, no matter how many times we kissed, it always didn't fail to surprise me.
Every time we kissed, it got better and better. Our lips moved in perfect synchronization. I loved every minute of it.
The next thing I knew, we were on the bed, and Edward was hovering above me. I pulled away for air, and he continued kissing me, moving down my neck.
And that continued- and went farther.
*:-:*:-:*:-:*:-:*
I woke up the next morning to Edward's cool chest- wait, his CHEST?? Yep, his chest. His bare chest. I took a moment to admire his build. He had a perfect six pack. I loved his body.
But he noticed I was awake.
"Morning, love," he whispered in my ear.
That was my moment to ask my questions.
"Edward, did we...?" I trailed off.
He laughed, though I hardly found this situation funny. "No, love, we didn't." I let out a huge breath I hadn't even realized I was holding in.
He studied me for a moment before continuing. "But..." -I braced for the news that was about to come. I heard him laugh yet again. - "But you tried to... seduce me... and almost did. But lucky for the both of us-"
I cut him off. "Lucky for us that you're the responsible one."
He chuckled again. "Yes." He then turned to me. "Oh, and remind me to never let you be in charge of responsibility... ever."
I smiled. "Deal." I stuck my hand out from underneath the blanket for him to shake, making the 'deal' official.
He looked me over before speaking. "You don't think you're getting away with that, do you?" he asked huskily before pressing his lips to mine. He pulled away all too soon.
"You know, love, it's now 8:30. You were supposed to be up a half hour ago," he told me.
I cursed and jumped out of bed and headed to my dresser. I grabbed the first thing I saw, and ran to the bathroom.
After I was dressed, I went back to my room, and was surprised to see Edward still sitting on my bed. But apparently he had moved, because he had his shirt on, much to my half dissapointment and half relief.
"Shouldn't you be going?" I asked him, grabbing my car keys from off the table next to the doorway.
"Yes, I should actually," he replied, the statue Adonis coming to life. He came over, to kiss my forehead before leaving through the window.
I stood there for a moment, letting the burning feeling Edward had left by kissing me go down store grabbing my iPod off the desk and blasting Crazy ABC's by Barenaked Ladies (awesome song!! LOL it's a little kid song, but an awesome song none the less. It's cute!)
I jogged down the steps and out the door, revealing a very impatient Rosalie, tapping her fingers on the dashboard and just looking pissed. She caught sight of me and once I was in hearing distance, asked, "What took you so long?"
"Couldn't decide what to wear," I replied sarcastically, headphones still in my ear.
I started the car, and began on our way. After a little while, Rose asked me what I was listening to.
"Crazy ABC's," I replied.
She rolled her eyes at me. "Aren't you a little old to be listening to that band?"
I looked over at her, and pretended to be upset. "Rosalie! I'm appalled. Crazy ABC's is a classic!"
She waved her hand dismissively. "Whatever. How about we listen to some GOOD music?"
She got the iPod plug out from the glove department and held her hand out for the iPod in my pocket. Reluctantly, I handed it to her and she plugged it in, catching a glimpse of what I had been listening to.
"'K is for knick knack, L is for Llama.'
'Llama llama ding- what's so strange about llama?'
'It starts with two L's.'
'What's the second one for?'
'No idea.'
'I know. 'L-'" (Hilarious, by the way!)
She turned on Savior by Rise Against.
"It kills me not to know this
But I've all but just forgotten
What the color of her eyes were
Or her scars or how she got them
"As the telling signs of age rain down
A single tear is dropping
To the valleys of her aging face
That this world has forgotten
"There is no reconciliation
That will put me in my place
And there is no time like the present
To drink these draining seconds
"But seldom to these words ring true
When I'm constantly failing you
There are walls that we just can't break through
Until we disappear
"So tell me now
If this ain't love
Then how do we get out?
'Cause I don't know
"That's when she said
'I don't hate you, boy
I just want to save you
While there's still somethin' left to save'
{Whoa, woah}
"That's when I told her
'I love you, girl
But I'm not the answer
For the questions that you still have'
Whoa, whoa"
We listened to a few more songs, (Edward, 7 8 9, Pollywog in a Bog, and I Don't Like just to name a few. I giggled every time I heard the word Edward,) and by that time we had reached the Cullens'. Alice met us at the front door.
"Hey, Bella! Rose!" she called in her chipper voice.
"Uhh, Bella, how uhh, did she know that, uhh, we were coming?" Rosalie asked. Oh, if only she knew. If only she knew.
"I have a feeling that you're going to find that out VERY soon," I replied.
She looked at me like I had just grown a second head, but got out and went to meet up with Alice. I followed close behind.
She gave Rose a kiss on the cheek, and then pointed out Emmett's room, then gave me a kiss, but instead of showing me where Edward was, he appeared and gave me that crooked smile I loved so much.
"Hey," I said.
"Hey." And he offered me his arm and I gladly took it.
"You know," I whispered when we were on the stairs, heading up to his room. "That ten minutes without you was too much."
He faced me. "Wasn't it?"
Rosalie P. O. V.
After Alice showed me where Emmett's room was, I began to climb the grand staircase. It was exquisite. It was one of those really fancy curved staircases.
She told me that his room was the one on the far end, and that's the room I entered. It was Emmett's room, alright. It was very dirty. I'd have to help him clean it after he got through telling me whatever it was that he needed to tell me. I couldn't help but notice the lack of a bed.
"Rose!"
I turned around to find Emmett at the door, arms open. I took advantage of that, and ran into his arms. Bella was right; he was cold.
"Emmett, why is your skin so much colder than mine?" I asked him.
He stopped breathing. "Do you really want to know?"
"Yes," I breathed.
He motioned for me to go sit on the couch he had. I did so, and he followed. We sat face- to- face. "Okay, Rose baby, when I tell you this, you have to promise me something."
"Anything," I said.
"Why don't I believe you?" he asked, chuckling humorlessly. I shrugged.
"Why don't you give me something, you know, like swearing me to an oath, or something?" I suggested.
"It's like you can read my mind," he said, and pulled out a leather box, the perfect size for a ring…
Hmmmm… was it me or was that chapter short?
Well, I need opinions, guys! Do you want to know what was in the box, or no? Do you want it in Rose's POV, or just have her retell it in Bella's?
I need answers people!
