I am sorry for posting this later than I intended to. I am very busy with my exams approaching in June so couldn't make it fast. This chapter was originally planned to be a biiggggg one but I couldn't finish writing all of it and I really hate to keep you guys waiting so I decided to make it into 2 parts.

This story begins from when Edward first met Bella at the men's dressing room.


Chapter 6

This is heaven he thought. Edward dropped his coat on the empty chair, loosened his tie, took out the packet of cigarette from his pant pocket and placed one cigarette in his mouth. Not everyday he could be free from his work and whenever he could, he would cherish his moments at the local bar named Midnight Sun. He ran his hands through the rain of bronze locks and searched his back pocket for a lighter, but groaned when he realized he had left it home.

"Want one?" A female voice asked. Edward turned towards the owner of the voice to find a women sitting at the bar tool, swaying her white creamy legs like a pendulum. Her right hand was clutching a drink and the left had a blue lighter. Edward simply nodded and the girl hopped out of the tool and made her way towards him. She was a young and petite brunette, with slender figure and perfect curves wearing a spaghetti strap dress and silver stilettos which made her legs longer than usual. She smiled at him seductively when she found him ogling her. She leant towards him and lit the cigarette that was still sitting on his lips.

"Can I have a seat?" The women asked as her finger brushed his hollowed cheeks, his hard square jaw and then landed on the collar of his shirt. Edward sucked on the end of the cigarette and then parted his lips slightly as white cloud of smoke escaped through his pursued lips. She inhaled the smoke and traced her bottom lip with her pink tongue.

Edward nodded again.

The women had a glint in her eyes as her eyes danced between the empty chair and then to Edward. Abruptly she sat on his lap. Edward scowled. He placed his hands on her waist to get her off him, but then stopped as her hands wrapped around his neck. Her brown hair cascaded down her shoulder and tickled his forearms, her eyes bored into him challenging him to escape from her. Her eyes were a light brown, yet it reminded him of a girl, a girl who had same brown eyes but of a darker shade. The drink he had earlier was starting to have it effects. He felt lightheaded as he looked at the girl who was currently straddling him. He imagined she was her, the beautiful girl who fit perfectly in his chest, who had silky mahogany hair and cherry lips. He looked at her plump lips as they opened and closed with every word she spoke. He couldn't hear what she was telling.

He wanted to kiss those beautiful lips, and bury himself in her sweet flowery scent. But the girl didn't smell like lavender, she smelled like cheap alcohol, and strawberry. He almost gagged. But then she was so close, her lips were trailing sloppy kisses on his neck to his scruff jaw. With every kiss she was inching near to his lips.

"What the fuck?" a man yelled and immediately Edward snapped from his trance. He found himself looking at his cousin, Jasper. He grinned at Jasper lazily and then his eyes focused on the girl sitting on his lap. He shrieked. The girl in his lap had a horrified look in her face as she looked between Jasper and Edward.

"What the hell are you doing with my date Edward?" Jasper yelled. The girl immediately got off from his lap, and without further notice ran away past the crowd. Edward started to laugh maniacally while Jasper glared at him.

He raised his hands on air and said "Not my fault dude. She was all over me." He started to laugh again at Jasper's annoyed expression.

"Fuck man! You attract girls like magnets. I can't believe she was ditching me" Jasper groaned.

Edward patted his arm sympathetically.

"I need to get some new tricks before I start loosing all my girls."

"All your girls? Seriously Jasper?" Edward answered amused. Jasper rolled his eyes and plopped down on the empty seat beside him. He grabbed a cigarette from Edward and plopped it in his mouth. Edward was having too much fun looking at Jasper's annoyed expression. Jasper scowled at him and after a moment grinned and answered "She was the 5th"

Edward knew what he meant. The girl who was sitting on his laps earlier was Jasper's 5th girlfriend.

Jasper kept 7 girlfriends all together. "One for each day" Jasper had explained him once. Edward used to joke on how he remembered their names and Jasper said he had their name saved on his contact list as Sunday, Monday, Tuesday...

Edward laughed when he remembered that conversation.

"Stop laughing at me...will you? I am so damn pissed...first Miss Smarty pant and now this scrawny." Jasper groaned.

"Who?" Edward raised his eyebrow.

" Smarty Pant? She is in surgery with me. God! She thinks she is so damn smart, and worst of all she actually is." Jasper shook his head. "I bet she is a lesbian. I have never seen that girl hanging around with other males, and there are even rumors that she had rejected other doctors too."

"You too?" Edward asked amused. Jasper greeted his teeth and Edward chuckled.

"Don't need to be so smug about it, okay?"

He gave Edward a knowing look and then suddenly a thought came to his mind. He grinned and asked "Are you up for a game?" This was Jasper's way of saying "Let's bet because I know I am fucking winning it" Edward knew Jasper's techniques very well. He had been living with him under the same roof for 10 years; he knew exactly what was going on his mind.

When Edward was 9 years old, his mother died. Since Elizabeth Masen was a single mother, so after her death Edward was passed on to her distant brother Mr. Whitlock. He had lived with the Whitlocks for 10 years, and in those years he grew very close to Mrs. Whitlock. She was an amazing mother and took care of Edward like her own son Jasper. However it bothered Jasper to no end. Ever since Edward moved with them, all attention drove towards him. If Jasper was good at anything then Edward was best at it. There was always some kind of competition between them. It started with baseball games, exams, and now girls.

So when Jasper gave him that look Edward knew what he was betting this time.

"No Jasper." Edward shook his head.

"C'mon Edward...Why not?"

"I don't even know this girl and I never make bets against getting laid...that's what you do, not me"

"You are just afraid to loose" Jasper accused.

"As far as I can remember, I have been winning most of your bets for the past one year. Why will I be afraid to loose?"

"Because this girl is tough as hell and you won't stand a chance against her." Jasper smirked.

Edward pinched the bridge of his nose. It was probably the male ego or the alcohol that made him angry and before he knew he was agreeing with the deal.

"Fine." Edward slapped his hands on the table. "If I win, you will pay me 10 million dollars and if you win, I will pay you 20 million dollars." Jasper was now grinning from ear to ear. He knew exactly how to push Edward's buttons.

"Deal." Both the men shook their hands and separated their ways.

When Edward woke up next morning, he finally realized that what he had done. This is wrong he thought. Girls were magnet to him like Jasper had said. He knew so, yet he never took advantage of the fact. During senior year in high school he used to watch hoards of girls following Jasper everywhere, while he used to hide in library to escape from the prying eyes of horny teenage girls.

He was studious, a perfect gentleman but never a womanizer.

If he was one, then he would have taken advantage of the brown eyed girl in the men's dressing room that morning. He would have never let go of her and followed her everywhere until she was begging him to take her.

Edward shook his head vigorously as if that would get her face out of his mind. He was going mad, which is never a good sign for a doctor.

He groaned and cursed at himself for letting Jasper have his way with him.

That morning when he reached FGH he switched on the hospital PC and clicked on the FGH Information Directory. Jasper had sent him a message with the name of the girl early morning. Edward typed Isabella Swan Cullen on the search list and waited for data to come up. He had to see who this girl was. He smiled inwardly when he remembered that the girl has rejected Jasper.

Must be some girl Edward thought.

The page finally came up.

On the right side, there was all data of her past records, her recommendation from the top school, her house address and number. On the left was her picture which was still loading. Edward went through the data as the picture loaded. He was thoroughly impressed. He knew Jasper wasn't lying; she was indeed Ms Smarty Pant. Edward laughed at the nickname but then suddenly his eyes bulged out in horror.

He thought he was dreaming. He wished he was dreaming. He prayed he was dreaming.

But it was real.

He was looking at the brown eyed girl he had met in the men's dressing room.

He knew he was thoroughly screwed.

"I can't do this...I can't do this...I can't do this" Edward ranted as he paced back and forth in his cabin. He had been searching for her ever since he had seen her. He was paranoid to know her name, or in which medical field she was in. Edward thought probably she was a new resident, but then he had heard other males talk about her in the dressing room. He realized that he was always so immersed in his work that the world around has become a blur.

It never bothered him before but it bothered him now.

He couldn't believe his fate. He didn't find her when he was looking, and when he finally found her, he didn't want to see her.

He had never felt such attraction for any girl before. He had dated a few girls here and there, but none has ever caught his attention like her. It was so unusual for him. He never ran after girls, they used to run after him. But she was unlike any girls.

For the first time ever, when he wanted a girl, she had run away from him.

And now he was going to run after her........

His first mission was to find her schedule. He had to break into Dr Caius's PC and get her schedule printed. Surely that wasn't hard, right? He couldn't possibly be handcuffed for breaking through confidential information? Well...

That was the first night he had called her in the on-call room.

"Dr Isabella Swan?" He asked. It was the first time he had uttered her name and he decided that there has never been a more beautiful name in the world. Oh God I am such a saphe groaned. If he thought whatever he was doing was illegal, the thought had disappeared as soon as he had heard her in the other line.

Her voice was sweet, thin and a bit rough laced with irritation. Edward chastised himself for calling her late. She must have been in a deep slumber.

He never decided what he wanted to say though, he listened as she spoke hello and hello again, but no words came out of his mouth. Instead, he took a deep breathe and then disconnected the line.

He tugged on the end of his hair in frustration. What was he doing?

"Not her." Edward groaned as he picked up his cell phone to call Jasper the next day. He couldn't do this to her. But before he could press on his number, his cell phone buzzed in his hand, and an unknown number blinked rapidly. He clicked then green button and held it to his ear.

"Hello?"

"Dr Edward Masen?"

"Yes"

"This is Caius. I wanted to have a talk with you in the hospital but we hardly meet, so I got your number from Marcus. I hope its fine? "

"Of course. What's the matter?" Edward asked nervously. It better not be about stealing Isabella's schedule from his PC...

"It's about Jasper."

"What about him?" Edward asked genuinely curious.

"You know the patient with the hypertensive heart disease will be operated by you and one of my interns... And I want the best one to assist you...I know I am making a big deal out of it but really... I think this is going to motivate the other interns to do better." Caius continued "So I wanted your opinion on Jasper"

Edward pinched the bridge of his nose in frustration. "Caius, are you asking me because you think he is a good candidate or because he is my cousin?"

"Well..."

Edward sighed. "I am sure there are other candidates too, you mustn't overlook their potentiality. I am not saying Jasper is a bad choice, but you cannot just choose him because he is my cousin"

"I know Edward, but how can I not when he is the one reminding me all the time."

Edward scrunched his face "What do you mean?"

"I don't know Edward...Jasper always seems to remind me about his father's contribution to the hospital and then you too. I...How am I suppose to react to that?"

"He is blackmailing you?" Edward asked incredulously. The Whitlock's are apparently the most charitable family in Forks. They have a huge heart which apparently matches the size of their bank account and so they are always keen on contributing whatever they can for their homeland.

"I guess he is..." Caius sighed on the other line. "Anyway I think Dr Swan is also considerable, she has shown immense interest on performing the surgery with you."

"Dr Isabella Swan?" Edward asked as a bright smile stretched on his lips.

"Yeah...Do you know her?" Caius asked.

"N-No... I have heard plenty about her." He replied quickly.

"Oh. Jasper and Bella are the best we have.' Caius answered.

Edward couldn't keep the smile of his face after their conversation ended. He murmured her name again and again in his empty room until all he could hear was her. All this while he had been thinking that he was the only one to be infatuated by her, the thought of her feeling the same way had never crossed his mind. Was it possible that she liked him too? Edward mentality chastised himself. If she was really interested in him, then she wouldn't have run away from him in the dressing room.

"She has shown immense interest on performing the surgery with you" Caius voice rang out in the silence.

Edward huffed in frustration.

He thought of omitting "performing the surgery with" from his words and it would sound perfect.

Get a grip Masen!

It was then that he decided that he had to meet her. He had to tell her about the bet and confess that he was attracted to her. But how? He couldn't just call her and tell - Hello Isabella I am Edward Masen. I am sure you have heard about me. I wanted to tell you that I have agreed on a bet to get you laid and I really really like you. So please tell me you like me too...

He shook his head at that thought and laughed languidly. Even though that conversation would be very tempting but it would make her run further away from him than the other.

Suddenly an idea popped in his head. He could page her. He grinned and made his way to the hospital with the plan in mind.

As the day processed, he found himself immersed in his work. He performed two minor surgeries in OR 4, and then met some of his patients in the emergency ward who were in need for a surgery sooner. He met other patients who were in a less critical situation and discussed the situation with their primary physician. He talked about the surgical procedure and told them about their various options.

He was always in ease with his patients.

But sometimes they would overwhelm him. Whenever he would greet them, they would look up to him with eyes that would glow with a powerful emotion. Hope. It made him realize that how much they believed him and trusted him with their life.

It made him stagger.

After the work hour, he found himself in the eerie silence of his cabin. He loosened his tie and ran his hands through his carefully brushed auburn hair. He tugged them sharply and groaned at the sensation. He stretched his long legs and let his head fall back on his armchair as he sighed and closed his eyes.

As soon as his eyes drooped, there was a knock on the door. He groaned in frustration and snapped "Come in" The door creaked as the person entered the room. Edward's eyes were still closed but it sprang open when he heard a click indicating that the door has been locked.

His eyes went huge as saucers as he took in the image in front of him.

Her long creamy white legs were supported on black and white polka dotted heels. His eyes crawled from her slender legs to the snug velvet black corset that hugged her body tightly. Her breasts were pushed together in the confined space, enhancing her deep cleavage and her curvy hips. His breathing was already shallow. He could make out her erect nipples which were barely concealed by the satin. She was wearing a shimmering diamond belt necklace and a sultry smile sat on her dark red lips.

HOLY SHIT!!

Her fingers twiddled a thin band of her soft and fluffy hair as she took small steps towards him.

He watched as her breasts slightly bounced with each steps and her eyes danced in amusement. He sat stunned as her hands reached towards him, but instead of his face it rest upon the arm chair. She gave it a sharp pull as the chair swirled to make him face her completely. She stood between his legs, her blood nails caressing his scruff jaw. She bent a little and placed a kiss behind his ear. He felt himself grow hard as her tongue lapped and nibbled on his neck. And then she purred seductively in his ear "Edwaaarrrrrdd"

It was enough to make him come undone. He pushed her body roughly on his desk so that she was sprawled in front of him. And then he was touching her, kissing her............
