Alice's tirade lasted well into the night. Edward and I sat on opposite ends of the couch and took it in silently. I played idly with my hair as Alice paced the length of the lounge room her hands flinging in all directions. Every so often I would see Edward flinch, and no doubt she was hurling silent insults at him as well. Eventually we managed to calm her down, after I promised a whole weekend of shopping, and Edward promised to take her to fashion week in New York.
A few weeks later I finally had my cast removed. Carlisle was surprised that my arm healed so quickly, but with my track record, my body probably thought it was better to heal faster than an average person. I still had to wear a brace at night, but, apart from that, it was sweet.
Edward and I were supposed to take it slow, but it wasn't really working. For me that is. The first date was nice and unassuming. Edward was the complete gentleman as he took me to a show in Seattle and then to dinner. He walked me to my room and kissed my forehead before bidding me goodnight. That was all well and good, but I lived right next to him and saw him every day. Being in such close proximity to someone I was dating was hard. On a few occasions we had let our emotions take over and one of the family walked in on us.
So after a few heavy petting sessions I was beginning to get fed up with it. I mean we were not teenagers anymore…well one of us wasn't anyway. I refused to think of the whole Mrs. Robinson thing though, Emmett had taken a liking to singing the damn song every time I walked into the room. I didn't exactly have a plan, more of a layout of what I wanted to happen. As if the Fates were finally smiling down on me, we finally had the house to ourselves.
I walked into my room and looked around. My king size bed sat facing the large window. To my right was my walk in robe, and under the window a tiny silver ottoman sat. In the corner was a vintage writing desk Esme had surprised me with, and on the far right wall was the door to the walk through bathroom. Edward's bedroom sat on the opposite side. I strode over and opened the bathroom door shocked to see Edward mirroring me. .
'I err um do you need to use the bathroom?" Edward stammered. I giggled and shook my head.
"No actually I was going to come see you," I said.
"Great minds think alike," Edward said dryly. I smiled.
"No that's just a waste of brain power," I murmured. Edward chuckled. Just then Alice twirled into my room.
"What are you guys doing?" she asked.
"We were about to throw the ball at each other through the bathroom," Edward said holding up a yellow tennis ball. I looked at him raising one eyebrow.
"Nice save," I mouthed at him and he smirked.
"Okay well Rose, Esme and I are going shopping. Want to come Iz?"
I shook my head. "No I'm tired. Rose had me under Emmett's Jeep trying to sort his engine out, and we still haven't figured out how he managed to fuck it up so well."
Alice shrugged. "Okay then. See you tomorrow."
"Tomorrow?"
"Yeah we are heading to New York for retail therapy. It's going to be overcast all day so it's perfect."
"Oh okay," I murmured as I sat down on the floor. I leant against my bed and crossed my legs out in front of me. Alice twirled out, and I watched Edward walk into his room copying my position. We were exactly opposite to each other, and he lifted the ball with a smirk on his face.
"Just throw it Edward," I said rolling my eyes.
"Mmmm okay, but how bout every time I throw it I ask you a question," he said flinging the ball up. I nodded.
"And vice versa," I added.
"Okay deal," Edward chuckled as he bounced the ball midway on the bathroom tiles, and I caught it easily.
"Why did you believe me?" he asked. I sighed and dropped my hands in my lap. I fiddled with the ball pulling on the yellow frays. I knew that would be his first question. I was quiet for awhile trying to compose my thoughts. Edward sat patiently as I fumbled with the ball.
"Like I said, you were believable." I raised my hand to throw the ball but Edward was shaking his head.
"Nope, not good enough Izzy"
"Fine. It was because when you said you didn't want me, it proved to me what everyone was thinking. Why on God's green earth would you want me? I was stupid and plain and ordinary. I didn't deserve you. I wasn't good enough for you, wasn't worthy enough to love you. When you said what you did you just proved to me everything I already knew. I wasn't enough."
I sighed softly. "I am just a human. How could I compare to the likes of Rose or Alice or even Tanya? I'm not fast or smart or strong, and I felt I wasn't strong enough to return the love you deserved."
I tossed the ball to him, and he caught with one hand his eyes never leaving mine.
"You really thought I didn't love you?"
"Na-uh Edward it's my turn.
He nodded and tossed the ball from one arm to the other.
"Why didn't you kiss me on our date?" I murmured staring out the window. I was really upset when he didn't even kiss me on the lips, and it had been bugging me since.
Edward laughed. "Well we are taking it slow, remember Izzy?"
"Not that slow," I muttered, and I heard him chuckle.
"Okay my turn," he said, and he threw the ball. I caught it with both hands, but still felt the sting as it smacked into both my hands. I glanced up at Edward.
"Do you think you're worthy enough now?"
I smirked. "Mmmm let's see I mauled you on the first day, could resist you the rest of the time, I killed a vampire and have dealt with the freak that is Alice. Yeah I think I'm worthy."
"I'm not being funny Izzy," Edward said glaring at me. I rolled my eyes.
"Look I did a lot of growing up when I left home. And Jasper has helped me as well. I'm not worthy enough for you because I don't need to be. I only need to be worthy enough for me. And I am."
Edward smiled at me and held out his hands. I threw the ball, and he had to reach to catch it.
"Sorry," I murmured not actually feeling guilty. He was a vampire for God's sake. I bit my lip trying to figure out what to ask him about when it suddenly came to me.
"Will you consider going further than just heavy kissing?"
Edward stared at me before his head tilted back and laughed. I felt my anger well up, and I stood up growling at him.
I started to turn towards the door, but Edward's arms were holding my shoulders effectively halting any movement. I felt him lean in, and his cold breath tickled my ear.
"Oh Izzy you don't know how much I have thought about doing more than heavy kisses."
I stopped breathing. His hands loosened their grip and ran lightly down my arms. I bit my lip to suppress the moan. He leaned in deeper, and I could feel his lips on my ear.
"You don't know how much I want to just throw you down and have my way with you."
Want to but won't.
I stood up straighter and turned around to face him.
"But you won't. You'll pull away just like you always do," I accused him. We both knew that I was right. It was just what Edward did. He always put my safety before my needs. His gaze darted from my mouth back to my eyes, and I noticed his eyes get dark.
What the-
Suddenly his lips were on mine; his tongue licking along my bottom lip silently asking me for permission. I gladly opened my mouth and felt his tongue thrust in. My own matched his and gloriously that was not the only thing I was feeling. His hands trailed down my back before grasping my butt and pulling me tightly into him. He moaned in my mouth before his hand made their way up my back touching each pearl of my spine. He finally thrust his hands into my hair and I broke away for air. His hand curled around my locks and pulled it gently forcing my head to arch away from him. I moaned as he dipped his head and licked my neck. He kissed my jaw making his way to my ear.
"I want you Izzy more than you'll ever know. Feel how I want you," he growled as he palmed my ass and I instinctively pushed my hips towards his. I gasped when I felt his erection. He had never allowed me this close, but in the back of my mind I knew he would pull away. He may have been getting better, but inevitably he would pull away. And he did. He stepped away from me, and I couldn't help but feel rejected. Edward's hands came up to cup my face making me look into his eyes.
"I'm not pulling away. I'm locking the door."
Wait what?
Locking the door? Oh my God.
Edward was back before I had a chance to blink. His head shot up and he smiled softly towards the door.
"Thanks Jazz," he murmured.
His hands wrapped around me, and he dipped his head again.
"Jazz took Emmett and Carlisle out hunting, love," he murmured "We have the house to ourselves."
I shivered against him. Could this be really happening? God, am I ready for this?
Hells yeah.
You've been waiting six long years for this.
I stopped thinking when his arms snaked around my waist and pulled me up. I wrapped my limbs around him, and his hands cupped my ass. My hands wandered up his neck finally thrusting into his hair. He growled as I tugged on his silky locks, and the sound sent thrills through me. Our lips clashed and once again I was surprised when he thrust his tongue in my mouth.
It was heaven. I felt him move slowly towards my bed, and without breaking away from my lips he lowered us both down on the soft comforter. Edward pulled away looking down at me. His eyes were black with lust, and he pulled his teeth back and growled. I licked my lips at the sight, and once again he invaded all my senses.
I whimpered as he peppered kisses along my jaw occasionally nipping my skin with his lips. He pulled my lobe into his mouth and sucked gently before releasing it.
"I promise I will make sure you are happy for the rest of eternity," he murmured into my ear, and as much as I wanted to I couldn't suppress the shiver that ran through me. He moved slightly his hand trailing down my cheek, and I moved my head to see his face.
"Beautiful," he murmured.
Suddenly I felt claustrophobic. I winced, and he pulled away sitting on his knees. He looked confused, and I just shook my head sitting up. I moved to the centre of the bed bringing my knees under my chin. He looked at me before following. He pulled my hand away, and I watched as he entwined his fingers in mine.
"Izzy if your not ready…"
I was ready. I really was. I just wanted to be in control of everything. I knew it was stupid. I knew that I would have to relinquish control in order for us to be together so I took a deep breath and smiled softly at Edward before I lowered my legs. In one quick motion I pulled my singlet off and threw it to the side of the bed. I smirked as his eyes raked over my chest. I wasn't self conscious of my body anymore. Men openly drooled at me, and I kept myself fit.
"Edward touch me."
He groaned and his hand trailed up my arm stuttering at my collarbone before fingering the edge of my black bra. I cursed myself for not wearing something a little more erotic, but I had time to show him my collection. His fingers dipped in slowly, and I gasped when they grazed my nipple. It hardened underneath him. Suddenly he was on top of me staring into my eyes
"Izzy you have no idea what this means to me," he whispered against my lips. I nodded silently as his lips crashed onto my mouth. His cold tongue darted in and I reach out with my own. The contact sent shivers down my spine. I breathed in his cold breath and shuddered against his hard body. Edward suddenly pulled away looking down at me.
"Are you sure Izzy?" he asked again. I giggled.
"Don't you want to make love to me Edward?" I teased him surprised at how husky my voice was. My hands grazed his face, and I watched them memorizing his features. He sighed, and that sound alone caused wetness to pool between my legs. My fingertips traced his lips, his nose and over his eyelids.
I pushed my hands up gently into his hair and tugged softly. He responded eagerly, but just before he kissed me he paused his tongue darting out, slowly tracing my bottom lip. I whimpered, and his tongue plunged in and met mine. This, just this, was exquisite in itself. His tongue, his lips, his body. I broke away and gasped for air. He moaned softly and kissed along my jaw line languidly. I tried to keep still under him, but my body started to betray me. I slowly started moving underneath him. My leg moved up and down his side, my hips rolled slightly, and my chest moved closer to his. His mouth had found my ear, and I cried out when he pulled my lobe into his mouth and sucked gently.
"Oh Edward."
"Izzy, my Izzy," he whispered and I revelled in the sound of his voice. His tongue darted into my ear and my stomach tightened in beautiful anticipation. He dipped his tongue in a few more times and I was delighted to feel that it intensified with each thrust. He moved slightly and I opened my eyes to see him searching for mine.
Nothing needed to be said it was all in his eyes. Love, lust, want, need everything that I hoped my eyes would convey to him. He dipped his head and his lips found my collarbone. His tongue made swirling sweet circles over my hot skin. His hand hesitated at the touch of my breast before he placed his whole palm over it. I arched to meet him and gasped. My nipple puckered through the thin material under his cold grasp.
He pulled his hand down and rolled my nipple under his palm. I started to pant and looked up at him. He was leaning all his weight on his left forearm and watching me intently his eyes, which were black with lust. Intense, amazing lust. He continued to roll his hand over my covered nipple as it puckered and reached for him. I closed my eyes and licked my lips.
"Izzy I need this…"
I eyes snapped open at his strained tone. His face was contorted in a strange grimace, and to me he seemed in pain. I cupped his face and searched his eyes.
"Edward?" I asked quietly wondering what could possibly be wrong. He gulped visibly.
"I need… this… off," he said tugging at my bra.
I giggled and sat up bringing Edward with me. I laid sweet kisses across his face as I reached around to unclasp my bra. It dropped easily, and I flung it across the room. My hair splayed over my breast, and I pulled it behind my back still laying kisses on every part of Edward I could reach. His eyes were closed, and I leaned back on my hands.
"Edward, look at me."
Edwards eyes snapped open at my command. His breath hitched as his gaze rove all over my chest, drinking me in. Suddenly he pushed me back down his mouth hovering just above my nipple. I stopped breathing as he held my eyes. I watched his tongue dart out and lick my nipple. The fact that saw him do it and felt it caused heat to fly down my body and settle at my core. His hands wrapped under me lifting my chest towards him and my breast into his mouth.
"Urgh Edward," I moaned. He sucked gently rolling his tongue sly around my peak. I felt his other hand leave my back and trace invisible lines at the base of my other breast.
"Edward please….please touch me."
He complied taking my nipple and rolling it between his thumb and finger. The room spun, and I felt my centre unravel.
Suddenly his mouth left me, and I cried out in protest. He chuckled softly as he peppered kisses down my abdomen. His lips came to a halt at my hips and he slowly placed his mouth near the inside of the bone. He opened his mouth, and I felt his lips dome and he sucked the skin pulling it into his mouth. Violent bolts of electricity shot through me, and I screamed. His hands trailed up and down my thighs while he continued to suck this delicate spot, slowing down at my knee stroking the back firmly before squeezing the spot just above my knees gently. I was panting my fists grabbing the sheets and twisting them.
I felt his fingers tuck into the waist band of my sweat pants. I lifted my bottom and within seconds my pants were on the floor.
"Oh God Izzy… blue?" he grunted as he stared down at my choice of panties. I giggled quietly but I was cut off by Edward's fingers tracing the lace pattern. He trailed down and suddenly stopped at my wetness. He growled as his fingers fisted my panties and suddenly they were in pieces floating delicately around us.
"Izzy watch me please. I need you to help me," he groaned as he stared up at me. I knew what he was asking. To control him. So he needed to see me so he wouldn't lose control. I pulled myself up on my elbows and stared into his eyes. His face hovered above me, his hands splayed out over my hips to keep me from bucking. I saw his tongue poke out of his mouth and lick my clit. He closed his eyes and pulled back taking one of his arms away.
Nonononono don't pull away.
"Oh Edward," I whispered, and his eyes returned to mine. I knew he was fighting for control.
"Please, please I need you, you need to… I need to…," I stuttered and tears prickled my eyes as I thought that this would end. Then I felt his cold finger push slowly at my entrance. I choked back a sob. He probed deeper and it took everything in my power not to move. I watched him, his eyes closed and his face scrunched beautifully as he concentrated on pulling his finger up and pressing into my sweet spot
"Oh Edward, Edward," I murmured as I licked my lips. His tempo increased, and I felt my legs quiver. He inserted a second finger, and I bucked instinctively at the very tightness. It was only then that I noticed his eyes were still closed.
"Edward. Look at me."
His eyes slowly opened.
"Look Edward. Look at what you do to me," I whispered. He reluctantly tore his gaze from mine and stared at his fingers delved deeply in me. A hiss tumbled out of his mouth, and I felt myself tighten around him
"Izzy," he gasped and his cold breath caused my clit to swell. He looked amazed as it throbbed for his touch. He lowered his head and his eyes snapped to mine. The minute his lips touch my aching clit I threw my head back and growled. He pulled it into his mouth and sucked it gently, his fingers increasing in tempo. Touching, pulling, licking, kissing. I felt my core convulsing pulling and contracting screaming for more, and I whipped my eyes back down and locked onto his. His eyes darkened to coal black, and suddenly I was on the precipice.
I felt him suck, lick and stoke me and it sent me flying over the edge screaming out his name. My body throbbed and hummed as the orgasm continued to rock me. I was vaguely aware of him pulling from me. His body moved over mine, and I felt his mouth on my own tasting myself on him. As he continued to kiss me, and I slowly came back to him. His face was strained but his eyes held everything for me.
"Izzy, Izzy," he murmured as he leaned in and took a deep wavering breath of my hair.
"Edward I need you in me please," I pleaded. He hesitated, and I pulled away to look at him. I found myself trying to discern his emotions. He looked embarrassed.
"Edward," I cooed. "Tell me."
"Please Izzy be gentle," he murmured staring at me intently. My brow furrowed as I tried to work out his strange request.
"I…you've been…others," he stammered. It suddenly dawned on me and a giggle escaped. I smiled softly and began tracing my finger down his face.
"Oh Edward it was you always and only you."
His eyes widened. "You… you waited for me?"
"Of course my love you are my everything."
I sighed when he started kissing me again. I met him at every thrust of his cold tongue and manoeuvred beneath him. I felt him position himself above me and the sheer feeling of him pressing into my folds caused me to shudder. His hands gently laced my face.
"Take me Edward."
As he slowly pushed into me we both moaned, watching each other's reaction. I felt the cold enter me inch by inch till our bodies were flush with each other. Edward grunted softly moving his hips slowly letting me get used to the feeling of him being within me.
"Izzy, Izzy I lo…I lov…Oh God. I never knew."
He had stopped moving as he murmured against my lips. I sighed softly then bucked my hips eager for friction, for movement, for more.
My core was twitching and hot waiting for him to move. His lips were parted, his eyes hooded, and his cold breath excited me. And then he moved, and we both cried out again. He continued to move slowly pulling back to my entrance before plunging himself back deeply. I snaked my hands into his hair and twisted the soft tendrils around my fingers.
I couldn't decide what I loved more; his lips or his eyes so I kept darting between the two. I marvelled that he was doing the same. I moaned and writhed under him as he continued to thrust in me. I gasped as my stomach tightened and felt it build in me again. He groaned as he felt my core heating against his cold member, and he started to move harder in me.
"Edward Ed… ward. It's coming, it's coming," I panted.
"I know, I know. I'm there. So close," he whispered into my mouth. His panting matched my own and raked my nails down his back. He hissed in response and it was my undoing. I arched my back as I felt my walls tighten around him.
"Edward," I screamed as I fell happily over the edge.
"Iz, Izzy," he grunted then let out a furious roar as he spilled into me. My vision blurred as the room went black. Everything but Edward. Even in my own bliss I saw his eyes never leaving mine his mouth twisted, and it only intensified my own pleasure.
A few minute passed, and I realized I was staring at Edward. I smiled shyly my heart still pumping hard in my chest. He smiled back at me, and I thought I would burst.
"Izzy, my Izzy," he whispered. He slowly pulled out of me, and I whimpered at the loss. He chuckled darkly as he rolled me onto his side, and I nestled into the crook of his shoulder.
"Forever remember?" he murmured stroking my hair. I nodded against him, and felt my eyes slowly close.
"Forever Edward," I whispered as I slipped into sleep.
*******************************************************************************************
Forever?
Forever?
Did that mean?
Did that mean he wanted me to be a vampire?
My stomach churned. I may have wanted that when I was a teenager, but now was a different story. I had grown to enjoy my humanity. I loved how I flushed with excitement how I could scar. My scars were the proudest thing about me. I wore them like medals. How many fights had I endured, so I could show them off?
And to be a newborn.
That image scared me above all. I preferred being in control of my reactions; to be completely overwhelmed by them terrified me. I wanted to grow old. I shuddered to think what would have happened if he had turned me when I was a teenager. Forever stuck as a teenager. Ewww. I loved the fact that I was a woman. I had accepted my flaws and embraced them. They made me who I was.
I felt Edward wrap himself closer to me. I had been awake for a while contemplating how to tell Edward that I didn't want to live forever that I would rather live and die an old lady. I knew he would respect my decision, but would he agree with it? To him he would only have a short time with me and inevitably on this Earth. I knew he would follow shortly after, and even though it hurt me to think about it, it felt right that it should end that way. I mean he was long overdue for death.
"Izzy, are you awake?" he murmured.
Yes," I answered rolling over and stretching. The sheet pulled away with my movement and revealed my breasts. I giggled when Edward's gaze fixed on them.
"I've opened a can of worms haven't I?" I asked not bothering to cover myself. Edward nodded and continued to gaze at my chest.
"Edward I know they're awesome, but my face is up here," I chuckled. Edward ducked his head and grinned at me.
"Well are you hungry?"
As if on cue my stomach let out a huge growl. "Oh, God yes. Let's get up."
He laughed as I ran into my closet grabbing some deep purple skinny jeans and a black top. I paused as I looked for some fresh underwear and a new bra. I ran out my clothes in one hand and stopped when I saw my bed empty. I walked slowly into the bathroom surprised to find Edward leaning against the vanity.
Oh My God he's naked.
Keep your cool Izzy he's just a man.
Arh yeah right he's sex personified remember?
Oh right.
Despite my internal squealing I kept a casual expression on my face as I strode into the bathroom. I closed the door behind me and spun around to face him.
"I call the shower first," I growled playfully. Edward smirked, and I damn near melted.
"Well I was thinking we share."
"Mmmm your thinking could get you into some mighty trouble Cullen," I snapped back grinning at him. The smirk widened.
"Trouble I can handle,"
"But can you handle me Cullen?" I said over my shoulder as I turned towards the shower He rolled his eyes and swatted my bum. I yelped and rubbed my bum staring daggers at him. He shrugged and the movement caused me to realize that he was very turned on.
Does spanking turn you on Cullen?
Let the games begin.
"What?" he asked innocently. "I thought you liked it rough."
"I'll show you rough," I snarled as I turned on my heel and ran at Edward. He caught me softly chuckling into my hair.
"What were you sa-"
I pushed myself on him, and I snickered when his face turned from amusement to shock. He didn't get a chance to recover when I started moving slowly. I may still have been sore from the night before, but I quickly warmed up.
He growled and was out of me. Suddenly he flipped me over so I was staring at myself in the bathroom mirror. Edward grinned from behind me and I felt his cold tip at the front of my entrance.
"I think that you're too naughty for your own good Izzy," he growled as he stared at me through the mirror.
So we're playing rough Edward?
I snorted. "You don't know how naughty I've been Edward," I purred as I licked my lips. Edward grinned evilly and raised his hand. I watched it come down, and I heard the slap resonate through the bathroom before I felt the sting.
"Ow Edward that was too hard."
"Deal with it," he grunted. Somehow that made me wet. I watched as Edwards nostrils flared at the smell of my arousal, and his grin widened. I gasped as another smack hit my ass and was quickly followed by more wetness.
Oh this is delicious. Painfully delicious.
"I put up with all your shit Izzy. Do you honestly think you could get away with it?" he sneered at me as he pressed his tip into me. I moaned and tried to move my hips but he held me still.
"Look at your self Izzy. I want you to see what I do to you."
I locked eyes on my own noting my blush across my chest. I glanced at Edward before switching back to my own brown eyes. He hesitated still teasing me before ploughed into me.
"Oh my God," I moaned. He slid out easily and plunged into me again.
Smack!
"He can't save you Izzy, only I can," Edward grunted. I glanced at him, and I felt myself tighten around him as I took in his expression. His mouth was pulled into a sexy sneer as he pulled out and thrust into my wetness. His eyes were black, and he flicked them from what he was doing to my gaze on him. He growled, and I gasped as my walls clenched and my orgasm suddenly overtook me. Edward grunted as he continued to pound into me, and I heard him snarl as he came in me. He pulled out of me and crushed me to him. We were both breathing hard, and I leant my head against his cool chest. He rubbed my bottom gently, and it soothed the sting.
"I'm sorry. Did I hurt you?" he asked softly. I giggled and shook my head.
"Not much, but I enjoyed it."
He laughed. "You are a saucy little minx."
"Never said I wasn't. So how 'bout that shower?" I asked as I twirled away from him. He nodded and opened the screen for me. I stepped in and he followed turning the water on. I shrieked.
"What?"
"Oh cold, cold," I squealed bouncing away from the water.
He laughed.
"What is so funny? Remember I'm the one with a pulse. We can't all be dead," I teased as I moved as far away from the water as possible
"Oh you'll pay for that Swan,"
He advanced on me, and I squealed trying to get away. The shower was large but not large enough to run from Edward. Besides his body blocked my way out, and I resigned myself to the fact he was going to get me. He grabbed me roughly and held me under the water. It was fucking freezing.
"Aw fuck Edward. It's too cold," I screamed scrambling against his iron hold. His arm whipped out and turned the hot water on. I relaxed as I felt the water warm up.
"Better?" he whispered in my ear.
"No! I'm still being held by a cold dead man," I snarled.
"Izzy," he growled. I laughed and racked my hands down his chest.
"A cold dead man whom I love," I murmured staring up into his honeyed eyes. He smiled and leant in to kiss me. We washed each other quickly, and Edward stepped out before me. He blew me a kiss, and I rolled my eyes at him. Edward chuckled lowly and went into his bedroom. I turned the water off and stepped out of the shower. I wrapped my towel around myself as I moved to the mirror and looked at myself. My lips were swollen and there were a few blossoming bruises over my body. I gasped as I noted the deep purple bruise on my shoulder, and I quickly whipped off the towel to find bruises in the distinct size of Edward's hands on my hips. I growled as I stormed into his room and pointed at him. He was fully clothed, and he looked up at me in shock.
"Look what you did!" I snarled gesturing to my bruises.
He shrugged. "I don't remember you complaining. In fact you were doing the exact opposite."
I gaped at him. "What has gotten into you?"
He laughed. "Izzy since you've come back to me I've changed my way of thinking. I still worry about you, but you're not the little girl I left in Forks. Your strong and capable and able to tell me what you want. If you didn't want me to do that to you, then you would have told me to stop. But you didn't."
Well you did enjoy it.
I giggled. "Wow! So emo Edward is gone for good."
"Well maybe not for good, buried deep down."
I crawled into his lap. "Deep, deep down."
"Very deep," he murmured as he stroked my back
"Izzy are you aware that you're still naked?"
"Very much so."
"Aren't you hungry?"
"Damn," I snapped and climbed out of Edward's lap. I giggled as I walked into the bathroom to get changed knowing Edward's eyes were firmly planted on my ass.
