Hello, sorry, sorry for taking so long this time, but I had some computer difficulties. I added Alice and Rosalie POV on this one, please tell me what you thought, I'm not sure I was able to capture their personalities.
Thank you for your reviews on the last chapter you are absolutely AWESOME!
Someone asked how old Edward is, he is twenty three.
BPOV
Our trip had finally began, we were on the road for more than an hour, but five minutes after we had gotten on the highway, I knew it would take less than I thought, because these Cullen drove really fast.
I was glued to the seat of my boyfriend's precious baby, while he was racing with the others. Edward was driving his Vanquish, Jasper was driving the Porsche and Emmet was driving Rosalie's BMW, which engine had been modified to have more horse power, whatever that meant.
"Bella, relax. You're perfectly safe."- Edward said.-"This is one of the most sophisticated cars in the world, it's very secure."- He said smiling.
"Right."- I said griping the seat and he laughed.
"If you don't stop that, you're going to rip the seat."- He said laughing and looking at me.
"Sorry, ah…keep your eyes on the road."- I snapped at him, he took a deep breath.
"Bella, do you want me to slow down?"- He asked with a concern voice.
"Yes, please."
"Ok."- He said slowing down, I looked at him and I could see the sadness he was trying to hide behind his smile.-"Better now?"- He was still way over the legal limit. I studied his face and realize this was actually kind of painful for him. I saw that when the others raced by us, and he gripped the steering wheel. I was being selfish again, this speed thing was important to him and I was getting in his way.
"Edward, what does it feel like to drive fast like that?"
"Freedom…I feel free, because it's all about your instincts, you don't even have use your mind or think about what you're doing, and that is really an awesome thing for someone like me."- He said this with great intensity, and I felt bad. How could I hold him back like this, just because I was afraid? I was caging him, and not allowing him to be free. I didn't want him to feel that way when he was with me. So I put all my fears to the side, as best as I could.
"Edward, I think we are staying behind, maybe you should speed up."- He looked at me in surprise.
"What?"
"Go on, speed up I want you to fell free with me."- He slowed down and pulled over to the side of the highway and stopped the car. He turned around to face me.
"You don't have to that, Bella."
"I know, but I want to."
"I thought you were afraid."
"I am, but I'm not letting that come in the way of your freedom."- He opened his mouth to speak but I cut off by continuing.-"Besides, I know you would never do anything that might hurt me, so let's just go."- I said smiling and he grinned with his eyes shining with enthusiasm.
"I love you so much…"- And he pulled me close to him and kissed me in a way he had never done before, it was so full of passion and love and need and so intense…wow, he had been holding back on me.
"Wow…if I knew you would kiss me like that, I would have said something when we left town."- He laughed.
"You are the perfect girlfriend…"- He said and he kissed me again like before, igniting all of my body in ways much more intense than ever, I was feeling things I was sure I wasn't suppose to feel with only a kiss. Damn, this was good… I had only felt like this when I experimented with myself; you know to alleviate my sexual tension. But this was by far much, much better. Suddenly his lips pulled away from mine, I slowly opened my eyes, trying to calm my girly parts down, and to my embarrassment he was looking at me smiling but with surprise written all over his face.
"What?"- I asked trying to sound as normal as I could, and he just gave me that crooked smile, that send a new wave of pleasure right to where it shouldn't and I had to adjust myself on the seat. My God what was happening to me?
He started the car still smiling and shaking his head, completely lost in his thoughts. I wondered if he had noticed what happened to me that would be so embarrassing.
He sped up and we easily caught the others, I looked at Edward studying him, he actually looked different, happier, and free and I was glad I hadn't prevented him from feeling that. Hum…I wondered if those feelings were the cause of that new way of kissing me. This trip had just become a lot more interesting.
Alice POV
I couldn't believe my own brother would do something like this to me. Let me burn with curiosity when I had done nothing but support him. I didn't know if was angry at him or if I was disappointed. I always thought he would be strong enough to wait, their story was so beautiful.
"What are you thinking about, darling?"- Jasper asked me.
"Edward."
"What about him?"
"I don't know if I'm angry or disappointed. I can't believe they are not talking. Do you really think they did it?"
"Honestly, I really don't know, but knowing Edward, I'll say no."
"Then why all this?"
"I think he is counting on winning, so we leave the two of them alone."
"Hey, what's that suppose to mean? I leave them alone."
"I know, but they are in a very complicated situation, I can't even imagine the kind of pressure they feel. Having to hide what they feel."
"Yeah, you're probably right, although I think it's kind of hot. Can you imagine, if it was us, looking at each other hungrily from across the room, or meeting in the janitors closet."
"You better stop that darling, or we will definitely loose the bet."- Jasper said in a seductive voice. I looked at him he was so beautiful, I love him so much, my future husband.
"Do you think we are going to make it?"- I asked concerned.-"I really don't want us to be the first ones to give in."- Jasper smiled.
"I really don't care, but if this is important you, I'll do my best to stay away.
"I hate this!"
"I know, but do you realize this is what Edward and Bella go through every day."- I had never thought about that, suddenly I felt more compassionate and understanding towards them. This was really difficult.
"Why do you think he wants wait? Do you think that it has to do with Bella being a virgin?"
"Probably, I'm sure Edward was to do this as smooth as possible. The first time is very important, especially for the girl."- With his words, memories of my first time came to my mind; he had been so gentle and sweet.
"Mine was really special."- I said grinning.
"I know, I was there."
We stopped at a resting area for a bathroom break to after about three hours, it felt good to be out of the car and stretch my legs. I looked at Edward and he was opening the door for Bella, he had a huge smile on his face. He was happy, so I was happy.
He took her hand and took it to his lips, and of course she blushed, looking at them like this, was impossible to tell the age difference between them, they looked just like any other in love couple. I was pulled out of my thoughts by my bladder that was about to burst, so I quickly went to the bathroom.
"Hi, Bella."- I said coming out and finding her washing her hands.
"Hi Alice."- She said smiling and I just felt the urge to hug her, so I did.-"Did you missed me that much? I thought you hated me."
"Don't be silly, I could never hate you. I just understand you better. God you are so brave."
"What is this all about Alice?"
"Nothing."- I said and I walked out of the bathroom.
Edward was leaning against the wall waiting for Bella, with a wild flower on his hand, he looked at me and smiled.
"Hey, Alice, having fun?"
"Yes, and you?"
"Oh, I'm having an amazing time, thank you for doing this."- He said and he hugged me, lifting my feet of the ground.
"You're welcome, even do you are not my favorite person right now."- I said pouting and he laughed.
"You love me to death…"- He said grinning and I stuck my tongue out to him and left, joining the others at the picnic table they were sitting.
"Look at them, so perfect and in love."- Rose said and followed her eyes. Edward was putting the flower on Bella's ear, and she was smiling. He kissed her gently and lifted her in the air.-"I think we are being played."
"What do you mean babe?"- Emmet asked.
"Do they look like a couple who is having sex?"
"They might."- Jasper said.
"Yeah, not everyone is as insatiable was you two."
"That's true."- Emmet said pulling Rose into a passionate kiss.
"Ah…just kissing don't forget."- Edward said teasing as they approach.
"We know and you are so going to lose."- Emmet said.
"We'll see."
We set around the table and ate the sandwiches my mom had prepared for us, we ate and talk and laughed. After we put what was left we packed it inside the picnic bag and walked to the cars.
And to our surprise Bella leaned back on the Vanquish hood smiling.
"Hey, Edward, we should try it here, it has the perfect angle."- Edward looked a bit surprise at first but then smiled widely and leaned over her and kissed her passionately, her legs coming up around his waist. The rest of us just stood there in shock.
"That's hot!"- Emmet said.
"Yeah…"- Rose said.
"How much is that bet?"
"Ten thousand."
"Hum…I'm starting to think that nothing is worth this."- Emmet said.
"Yeah."- The rest of us said together.
EPOV
We arrived at the Chateau Marmont around eight thirty; due to our amazing speed we reduced the trip by one hour and a half.
I watched Bella's astonished face as she walked inside the hotel, looking at everything with an amazed looked on her face. It made me happy that I could treat her to this kind of comfort, she deserved the best.
"Should we get our suitcases?"- She asked and I smiled it was obvious she had never stayed in a place like this.
"There's no need for that, they will take it to our suite."- I whispered in her ear.
"Oh."- She said a little embarrassed.
I walked to the reception desk and got us check in, after that we went to the elevator to go to the top floor to out one bedroom penthouses. To my surprise I saw that Alice and Rosalie would be sharing the same room, leaving Emmet and Jasper to share the other, they were taking the bet serious.
When we got to our door, I took Bella in my arms and lifted her up, bride style and opened the door, but before we went in, I kissed her passionately and heard the others whining as they close their doors loudly.
"I'm almost feeling sorry for them."- Bella said.
"Don't, maybe they'll understand us better after this experience."- We went inside and Bella gasped looking at the amazing Penthouse, it had a living room with a piano, a dining room and kitchen, then the bedroom with a private large bathroom, there was a king size bed, and glass doors that led to the huge terrace.
I followed Bella as he walked around from room to room, her eyes shining with enthusiasm.
"This is amazing; I've never stayed in a place like this before."- She said.
"Do you like it?"- She looked at me smiling and set on the bed.
"I do, specially this bed, hum…I can't wait to roll all over it with you."- Damn, it was going to be hard to keep my hands of her, she never stopped to amaze me, one minute she was this shy, inexperienced girl the next she was this sexy, flirtatious, hot, hard to resist girl.
"Don't give me any ideas, Ms. Swan, we have only forty minutes to get ready and meet the others for dinner."- She smiled and put her arms around my neck and pulled me close to her.
"I only need fifteen minutes."- She whispered in my hear.-"What about you?"- And she started to kiss my neck and my cheeks and the corners of my lips. She was driving me crazy.
"I'll need about ten minutes, since I don't have to shave."- She smiled widely and crawled backward on the bed with an inviting look.
"So I guess that leaves fifteen minutes to make out."- I was on that bed in a micro second, kissing her, and pulling her to me.-"Edward, are you holding out one me?"- She asked when we pulled away to breathe.
"Why are you asking?"- I said trying to hide my concern; she was more perceptive than I thought.
"Well, the way you kissed me on the highway was much more intense than your usual kisses, I liked it, a lot."- The memory of the way she had reacted came to my mind, she was right I had been holding back a little bit, I was afraid to lose control, but in that moment after realizing she was putting my feelings above hers, I lost it and kissed her with all I had. And for a moment there I thought her reaction was more sexual than I expected, it made me wonder if it was possible for a woman to…no way! Well I could always find out…just not now.
"Go and have a shower, or we will be late."- She pouted and got out of the bed whining.
I got dressed in the living room so Bella could have the bedroom to herself, and I was definitely not prepared for what I saw once she met me there.
Bella was wearing a tight one shoulder, really short black dress, with black high hells shoes that wrapped around her ankles, her hair was tied up in a prefer pony tail, my mouth dropped and she smiled.
Rosalie POV
I couldn't believe I was sharing a room with Alice; I hadn't slept away from Emmet for more than a year. I don't think I was going to make it. I shook my head and pushed the negativity away, I was a grown woman, I could do this, I could, couldn't I?
We all met downstairs for dinner, as we headed to the bar I looked at Edward and he couldn't get his eyes off Bella, she was looking really hot.
We set together and had a great time at dinner, the bet was never mentioned and we were all able to laugh and talk, I tried not look at Emmet, because that was all it usually took to have me forget about everything else.
"So what are we doing after dinner?"- Alice asked.
"What do you feel like doing?"- I asked. She thought for a little bit, and got that look.
"I know the perfect thing."- She said beaming.-"Remember that small bar we went to, the last time we were here."- I knew exactly what she was talking about.
"The karaoke one?"- Emmet asked.
"Yep."- Bella got a frighten look on her face.
"What is it Bella?"- Edward asked in a concerned voice.
"Yeah, it's just that I'm not old enough to go into a bar."- He smiled widely. We had actually discussed this, and of course we were prepared.
"We have that covered."- Jasper said.
"What do you mean?"- She asked and he took and envelope from his jacket pocket and hand it to her.
"Open it, and act as normal as you can."- She opened it and her mouth dropped.
"Is this what I think it is?"- She asked with shock all over her face.
"Bella, don't be mad. But we thought it was better for you to have another I.D., to make things easier."- She looked at her fake I.D. for a little while and then she smiled.
"Wow, I have a fake I.D."- She said laughing.-"This is so cool. You guys are very resourceful."- That's the Bella I liked to see. The thing about that girl was that she almost seemed to have two different personalities, the shy blushing one and the bold sexy one.
"So does that mean you are up to it?"- Alice asked.
"Are you kidding, I've never been to a bar before, but don't expect me to sing."
"No problem."
We drove to the bar, it was a nice small place, it was decorated in a 50's kind of ambiance, it was simple without being cheep. But don't get the wrong idea, it was very hot spot, you only got there if you were or knew somebody, and we had both.
We went inside after going through the huge security by the door; we were immediately greeted by one of the waiters.
"Nice to see you again, please follow me."- She led us to one of the couches near the stage that were always reserved for VIP clients, and we all took our seats. The place was full and with a good vibe. We order our drinks, nothing with alcohol for Bella, of course, to her disappointment.
"Hey, I have twenty three, I'm allowed to drink."- She complained and we all laughed.
"Shush, you sexy looking girl."- Edward told her.
"So who is the first one to sing?"- Alice asked looking around the table.
"I think I will."- Jasper said getting up and Alice bounced in her seat.
"He has such a lovely voice."- She said in a sigh. Jasper went to the stage after picking his song and he looked into Alice's eyes as he sang, Billy Joel «Just the way you are».
Alice was melting into her seat, while the other girls in the bar cheered and ogled her fiancé. He got a round of applause when he was finished and Alice ran to him and kissed him passionately before he even got our table.
"I'm next Emmet said."- He looked at me and winked.-"Try not to jump me, ok, baby?"- He said in the sexiest way.
He choose his song and took the microphone, his eyes shining with enthusiasm, as soon as the music started and when Emmet started to sing I was a goner. He was singing «Wild thing» by Hendricks, he knew what that song made to me. And then he started shaking his hips and the girls went wild and I couldn't take it anymore. I opened my wallet took out a check and wrote to Edward.
"Here you win."- I said handing him the ten thousand dollars check and he grinned victoriously and took it, but I didn't care, my man was all I wanted. I got up and started to cheer him. Hum…a trip to the bathroom together was sounding like an awesome idea.
BPOV
I was having the time of my life, my friends were simply insane, Emmet was on the stage, he was not a great singer but the way he was moving made the girls in the bar go insane, especially Rose that seeing him like that lost it and paid Edward for winning the bet. When Emmet got off stage, she got up and met him, she whispered something in his ear and he grinned, she then went to the bathroom and he quickly followed her and my mouth dropped.
"You don't think they are going to…"- The others just laughed.
Alice was the next one to sing, she had a beautiful voice, kind of like a classic singer, she sang «I will always love you» by Whitney Houston.
"Isn't she perfect?"- Jasper said his eyes filled with love.
"Yes she is."- I agreed she was a great friend, I had to thank her later for this dress, and the look on Edward's face when he saw me was amazing. He couldn't get his eyes of me and that made me feel like the most beautiful woman on the planet.
Alice left the stage and got a round of applause from everybody, now a guy took the stage, I turned my attention to Edward, he was looking really hot, with a dark dress shirt and black jeans, his sleeves were rolled up to his elbows, he was just gorgeous. In my mind I was already imagining the fun we would be having on that king size bed.
"What are you thinking about?"- Edward asked me whispering in my ear.
"You, me and that huge bed."- He looked at me and came closer.
"Bella, Bella, please don't say that, because you in that dress are making me question why the hell I'm waiting. You look so sexy…"- He started to kiss my neck, I had chosen to fix my hair in a pony tail because with this one strap shoulder dress, Edward could have full access to my shoulders and neck, which I knew were some of Edward's favorite parts in me.-"It's my turn now, don't forget the lyrics are the important thing."- He said kissing my cheek and getting up, he chose the song and grabbed the microphone, I wondered what he would sing.
The music started and I recognized the song but could remember the name of it. He started to sing and I looked around the bar every girl's eyes were on him, but his eyes were only one me. And I tried my best to hear the lyrics because I knew that's what he wanted me to do, but he just looked so hot. Then the name of the song hit me, it was «If you're not the one» by Daniel Bedingfield.
If you're not the one then why does my soul feel glad today?
If you're not the one then why does my hand fit yours this way?
If you are not mine then why does your heart return my call?
If you are not mine would I have the strength to stand at all?I don't wanna run away but I can't take it, I don't understand
If I'm not made for you then why does my heart tell me that I am?
Is there any way that I can stay in your arms?
I never know what the future brings
But I know you're here with me now
We'll make it through
And I hope you are the one I share my life with
Oh my God! He was showing me as much he loved me again, I could feel the warmth of his love coming from the stage, melting me in my seat.
If I don't need you then why am I crying on my bed?
If I don't need you then why does your name resound in my head?
If you're not for me then why does this distance maim my life?
If you're not for me then why do I dream of you as my wife?
I don't know life so far away
But I know that its just a trip
We'll make it through
And I hope you are the one I share my life with
And I wish that you could be the one I die with
And I'm praying you're the one I'Ve build my home with
I hope I love you all my life
I don't wanna run away but I can't take it, I don't understand
If I'm not made for you then why does my heart tell me that I am
Is there any way that I can stay in your arms?
My heart was racing, and I felt so loved, he was insuring me again that we had a future together. That he wanted to marry me some day.
'Cause I miss you, body and soul so strong that it takes my breath away
And I breathe you into my heart and pray for the strength to stand today
'Cause I love you, whether it's wrong or right
And though I can't be with you tonight
You know my heart is by your side
I don't wanna run away but I can't take it, I don't understand
If I'm not made for you then why does my heart tell me that I am
Is there any way that I can stay in your arms?
He finished singing but he stood there looking into my eyes, with his so full of love and adoration, he slowly left the stage without breaking eye contact with me, I was breathing heavily completely overwhelmed by him. No one applauded everyone just followed him with their eyes, he came closer and instinctively I got up and jumped in his arms, he dipped me slightly and kissed me gently and I heard everyone cheered in the background but Edward was kissing me like he had done in car, and I felt my legs give in, and he smiled against my lips and lifted me up and we took our seats.
"You can stay in my arms forever."- I whispered in his ear.
"I know…I love you so much."- We looked into each other's eyes for a long time only to be interrupted by Emmet and Rosalie getting back, her hair was slightly mess up and he had a huge satisfied grin on his face.
"Was it worth ten thousand dollars?"- Edward asked laughing.
"Oh, yeah."- He said and we all laughed.
This had been the second time Edward had sung to me expressing his love for me, and I kind of felt bad about not doing something like that, why did I have to be so shy? I looked at him, was he worth a little embarrassment? Oh, hell yes. I got up and they all looked at me with surprise on their face.
"What are you doing?"- Edward asked.
"I'm going to sing for you?"
"You don't have to do that."
"I know but I want to."- I took his face in my hands and kissed him passionately and the little sexy moan he let out of his lips was all the incentive I needed.
EPOV
Bella was walking to the stage and I was stunned, she hated being in the spot light. God she was blowing me away again. I looked around the room and I saw how all the men were looking at her and I didn't like it. She was mine, but looking at her in that dress I couldn't blame them she was steaming hot.
I focus all my attention on Bella, this was a gift for me and I was letting anything distract me, she took a long time to chose the song and blushed when she grabbed the microphone, I was anxious to hear what she had chosen.
When the music started, I realized she had completely surprised me again, because the song I heard was «Underneath you close» by Shakira.
She smiled and winked at me and then she started to sing, she didn't have a great voice she was in tune.
You're a song
Written by the hands of god
Don't get me wrong cause
This might sound to you a bit odd
But you own the place
Where all my thoughts go hiding
And right under your clothes
Is where I find them
After that first verse shy Bella was gone, and the sexy, bold Bella was ruling, and she was winning the crowd, especially the men. She started swinging her hips and singing, I was blown away.
I forgot the smart ways to lie
Because of you
I'm running out of reasons to cryWhen the party's over
We will still belong to each other
Underneath Your Clothes
There's an endless story
There's the man I chose
There's my territory
And all the things I deserve
For being such a good girl honey
When the friends are gone
Because of you
She started to walk out of stage with the microphone in hand and walking towards me in a very seductive way.
Underneath Your Clothes
There's an endless story
There's the man I chose
There's my territory
And all the things I deserve
For being such a good girl honey
I love you more than all that's on the planet
Movin' talkin' walkin' breathing
You know it's true
Oh baby it's so funny
You almost don't believe it
As every voice is hanging from the silence
Lamps are hanging from the ceiling
Like a lady to her good manners
I'm tied up to this feeling
She sang and danced in front of me, sawing her hips and teasing me with her fingers, and I had to grip my seat so I would grab her and…where did she learn to move like that? And as if Rosalie heard me she said:
"I taught her that."- She said proudly.
Bella kept sing and dancing and I was losing my mind.
Underneath Your Clothes
There's an endless story
There's the man I chose
There's my territory
And all the things I deserve
For being such a good girl honey
When she finished everyone applauded her and she just looked at me and I just sit there unable to move because I had a huge situation in my pants. I smiled and pulled her and she sat on my lap.
"Sorry I didn't get up"- I whispered in her ear.
"That's ok."- She said smiling.-"I can feel how hard it was for you."- God, I loved her. If she only knew the king of thoughts I was having, she wouldn't be so understanding. Or would she like them?
"It's your fault, damn you looked so hot."- I said gripping the back of her dress.-"So, you want to get under my clothes?"- I asked softly in hear ear and she shivered.
"Oh yes…you have no idea."- It took all of my strength to get myself together. Bella noticed what I was doing and without saying a word she took her seat and just held my hand.
After a few more songs we decided it was time to head back to the hotel. We agreed to do some sightseeing tomorrow morning and then enjoy the rest of the day at the beach.
Since the bet was won, like I always knew it would be, Alice moved to Jasper room.
"I can't believe you sang for me in front of all those people."- I said putting my arms around her waist.
"It was only fair."
"You looked amazing, and you don't sound as bad as you think."
"Right…"
"It's true you never missed I note."
"Really?"
"Yes, but even if you did, no one would notice because with the way you were moving no one was paying attention to your voice."- She blushed.
"Rosalie taught me those moves, I never thought I would use them but it felt appropriate."
"They were definitely appropriate."
"I didn't make a fool of myself?"
"Oh, no you were smoking hot."- I said and my lips were on hers and I kissed her.
"That's good to know, who knows maybe I'll used them again."- She said smiling.
I played a little on the piano and we dance for a while, and I feasted myself on Bella's bare shoulder and neck.
I was now lying in bed wearing my pajamas, when Bella came out of the bathroom, and my heart stopped, she was wearing a short dark blue satin chemise with cups decorated in white floral and a small white satin bow. Damn…
"Sorry, but the others were worse."
"Worse?"
"Yeah, a lot more skin exposed."- And that was bad? I was losing control.
"Do you want me to change into something else?"- I shook my head not able to speak; I guess I was really going to test my limits tonight.
She lay down by side, and looked shyly at me, I turned to the side to face her, and she smiled.
"You look very beautiful."- I said and I kissed her gently at first and then remembered I had something to test, so I let go of my control for a moment and kissed her letting all of my love for her be expressed in that kiss like I had never done before and she melted in my arms, breathing heavily, we were completely surrounded by that electric current that draw us together. I caressed her gently with my fingers tips, I could almost see the sparks between my fingers and her skin, and she moaned softly, I kissed her again, and again. The sounds coming for her mouth were amazingly sexy.
"That feels so good, Edward."- She whispered. I stopped kissing her and kept my caresses and I could feel she was almost over the edge, she pulled me close to her and I was now half way on top of her.-"I'm burning up…God…I'm burning up…"- I kissed her again and I sucked her tongue gently and I felt her body tremble in a wave of pleasure, and she breathed out my name as she rode her, orgasm? No away…
"Bella did you just…"
So what just happened there?
Next chapter the rest of the day in L.A., I hope not to take long, and that my computer collaborates. Don't forget to review.
