Recap:
"Goodnight Bella."
He watched her walk herself to the door and then go in. He couldnt help but notice the way her hips swayed and her skin glowed in the moonlight bringing out her beauty once again for him to notice and admire.
That night as he laid in bed sleeping all he could dream about was the lovely brown haired girl that he would see again tomorrow and even in the deep endless realm of his dream filled sleep that made him happy.

March 5 7:15 am
The smell of frying eggs and bacon could be smelled throughout the house, a loud sizzling could be heard from inside the kitchen as Alice made her way down the hallway. This was not a regularly occuring event in their household, she had only seen her friend wake up before her morning wake up call three times and all those times had to do with a guy.
She walked into the kitchen to find her friend dancing around the kitchen in her t-shirt and underwear, holding a spatula and humming along to what sounded like Paradise City. What on earth? She went unnoticed by her friend as she stood in the doorway of the kitchen looking shocked and confused.
"Ok you need to spill ever last detail of what made you like this." Her friend spun around nearly dropping the hot frying pan that was now in her hand.
"Jesus Alice you cant scare me like that while I have hot things in my hands." She said sighing as she sat the pan on the stove and grabbed the edge of the counter to get her bearing back.
"Dont stall. Speak!"
"Im not a dog Alice. I'm fairly sure I dont listen to commands."
"Ok well then let me rephrase that one ore time. As your bestfriend I would absolutely love it if you told me what has put you in this mood since I tell you everything about my life without hesitation." She responded using the guilt card, her friend let out a huff of annoyance at her friends tactics.
"Fine. I went out with Edward last night." She watched her friends face and saw that she was immediately jumping to conclusions. "No Ali I meant as friends. Not a date, we just sat on a park bench and ate chinese takeout."
"Sounds like a date to me." She paused for a second. "How was it?" She watched as her friends face lit up as she thought of how her night had gone.
"It was amazing Alice! He was really fun to talk to, never once did I get bored. I mean when have I ever went out with someone who serenaded me with Shaggy?"
"Shaggy?"
She broke out into the first verse of the song and Alice started to hysterically laugh at her strangely happy friend.
"Why on earth would you guys sing that?"
"Emmett made him a mixed CD." They both looked at each other straight faced for a moment and then burst out laughing again. They both knew Emmett and had seen how crazy and child like that he was, so the idea of him sneaking that song on to a mixed CD wasnt that hard to picture.
A few minutes later they had finished eating their breakfast and Bella made her way up the stairs to get ready.
"Bella wait! I need to give you your outfit for the day." She heard her friend yell as she was going up the stairs.
She came out of her room holding an outfit hanging from a hanger and a shoe box from a store she had never even heard of. After showering and straightening her hair she got dressed. The outfit of the day consisted of a pair of grey tweed shorts that was belted at the waist by a black satin ribbon, the shirt was a soft black material that was ruffled at the top and flowed comfortably around her when she walked. Alice had given her a pair of black patent leather shoes that had a rather high heel but when she put them on she realized that she was actually going to be able to walk in them. To complete her outfit she grabbed a pair of her favorite aviators and left out the door for another day at work.
On her way there she stopped at the coffee bar again to grab her morning coffee. Seth was at the counter again and gave her the same bright smile as yesterday.
"Hello again Miss what can I get you?" He asked.
"The same as yesterday please. The caramel macchiato and raisin bagel with cream cheese." He turned to make her order when someone spoke up behind her.
"Good morning dear." She turned to see the older woman from the desk in front of Edward's office.
"Good Morning." She smiled kindly at the woman.
"Did you enjoy your first day yesterday?"
She let out a giggle before answering as she remembered all the things that Emmett had said. "Yes it was quite interesting, especially having Emmett there." The woman pursed her lips.
"That boy is a trip, hasnt changed since high school, I dont think he ever will either." She said shaking her head.
"Did you hear about his engagement?"
"Yes I certainly did. He called me up in a panic the night he engaged to her, he was as nervous as a long tailed cat in a room full of rocking chairs. Didnt know how Rosalie would respond, or if he was doing it right. I told him that if he couldnt see that that that girls loves him more than anything he was blind." She had trouble picturing Emmett nervous about anything.
Just then Seth came back with her order and she paid and turned to the woman. "Well Miss Maggie I'm off to work see you at the office." She turned but before she reached the door the woman called to her again.
"Oh Bella there is a blue envelope on my desk could you give that to Edward for me when you get there?" She nodded her head and turned to leave again.
The envelope was sitting on her desk so she didnt have to look very long. She made her way over to Edward's door and knocked, waited and then knocked again louder. No response. She opened the door slowly and peeked in, no one was there. She just decided to go over and put it on his desk by his computer so he'd see it when he came in. She took the envelope and leaned over his desk making sure not to disturb any of his papers and dropped it in front of his computer. She turned around only to almost run face first into a hard chest.
"Oh hey Edward I was just dropping off an envelope for Maggie." He nodded and walked around to his desk to sit without saying anything.
"Well I'm just going to go to my office now. See you there in a few minutes." She said before she turned and left the room.
What the hell was his problem?

Edward POV
"Hey Edward can you come look at something for me?" Angela asked standing in the doorway. She was a nice girl, shy to a fault sometimes, with an eye for cover designs and illustrations. She worked with her husband Eric a few rooms down, he worked on the computer making her designs coe to life with a few simple clicks of a mouse, they were a great team and a wonderful asset to the company.
"Sure I'll be right there just let me finish this email." She nodded her head and gave him a warm smile before walking back down the hall to her office. He had woken up late this morning, sleeping right through his alarm clock to finish a dream that left him extremely frustrated. He hadnt had a wet dream since he was in high school, until last night that is. That was all because of the girl that he had become infatuated with. She had taken over his brain, she was all he could find himself thinking about. With a sigh he hit send and left the room to head over to Angela's office to offer some help.
"Hey Edward, I just needed you to look over the final design plan for the new vampire book that we're working on." Eric typed something into the computer and clicked the mouse and up popped an elaborate book cover that had a girl in the middle of a forrest, a shot snapped of her in mid run, the look on her face was fuzzy but you could plainly see the fear that was there. The area around her was only in shades of grey and black but the girl herself seemed to shine with color her bright pale skin was illuminated like a bright light was pointed directly on her, her brown hair whipped behind her as she ran and her light blue dress was dirty and torn. It was more than enough to catch someone's eye.
"This is great Angela. Good job."
"Thank you Edward. We are going to print it out thursday and send the author her first finished copy to see if she agrees with you. It was a good thing that Victoria finished editing that book before she quit or we would really be behind right now." She said giving a little smile of relief, he just nodded in response.
"Well Angela keep this up please. If you keep doing this fantastic of a job there may be a raise somewhere in the near future." With that he gave her a smile and a wave and then walked out the door and headed back to his office.
When he opened the door he was frozen in place by the sight in front of him, last nights dream was replaying in his mind. Bella stood leaning over his desk propped up on one arm as she reached forward to drop something in front of his computer. Her long legs looked longer thanks to the black heels that she was wearing and the tight shorts hugged her ass in a way that created a familiar snug feeling in his pants. The black shirt that she was wearing rode up a little on her back exposing a small sliver of pale skin. When she pushed herself off the desk and spun around she almost ran into him, making her nervously bite her lip in the the way that only made the situation in his pants that much worse.
"Oh hey Edward I was just dropping off an envelope for Maggie." He could only manage to nod his head in response, his mind just couldnt put any words together at the moment. He could see that his cold attitude confused her and made her even more nervous.
"Well I'm just going to go to my office now. See you there in a few minutes." She said before she turned to leave the room, he watched her walk out of the room and a minute later he got up and locked his door so he didnt have to worry about being interrupted while he took care of the problem that the girl had just unknowingly created.
