AN: This story is rated M for a reason...
Edward and Bella woke early the morning after their impromptu wedding. Although had only had a couple hours of sleep, they both felt rested. After a quick breakfast they took a shower, conserving water and exploring each other. Once they were dressed and all of their things packed up, they left and checked out of the hotel.
"What's on the agenda for today, husband?" Bella smiled.
"Well, wife, we have to go to Fort Irwin and get your ID made and sign some papers. Then we are having dinner with my family and your dad." Edward reached over and grasped Bella's hand. "I wish I had more time, baby."
"We have the rest of our lives. Your tour will be over in another 14 months. We'll talk and email. We'll get through it."
"I love you." Edward said and brushed his lips across her knuckles.
"As I love you." She smiled.
The drive to the base was anything but quiet. They talked and laughed. Edward told jokes that Bella had never heard, that had her in stitches. When they arrived on base they went to the commander's office and filled out all the necessary paperwork, and there was a lot. Getting her Id was another trial. Bella and Edward had to wait for the photo guy to come back from lunch. Who knew this would take so long?
After about three hours, of waiting and signing and writers cramp, Bella finally had her identification and she had been named as Edward's wife and beneficiary. Of course it would take a while to process, but they would receive everything in the mail when all was done.
Edward pulled up to Carlisle and Esme's an hour later. He could hear laughter coming from the back, so he and Bella skirted around to the gate to the backyard. When they made it around to the side of the house, they heard Emmett roaring with laughter as Charlie told him a joke.
"What is going on out here?" Edward shouted.
"Hey! The newlyweds are here!" Alice squealed. "It's about time."
"Sorry. Things at the base took longer than we thought. When its you guy's turns, don't make plans for later in the day." Edward smirked.
"Did we miss anything?" Bella asked.
"Just your dad telling some dirty jokes."
"Dad! I didn't know you knew any." Bella gasped.
"Hey, I'm innocent. Your brother told them to me." Charlie guffawed.
"Ooh, busted!" Emmett snorted.
Jasper just sat back and crossed his arms. "I don't hear you giving any that make all of us laugh."
Emmett just lifted an eyebrow at the challenge. "You want a joke? I'll give you a joke."
Bella sat in Edward's lap and sipped at her water. Edward was making lazy circles on her back, making her shiver. He smiled knowing what he was doing. "Come on Emmett, make us laugh!" He encouraged.
Emmett took a drink of his water and cracked his neck like he was going into boxing ring. "Ready?" Once everyone had nodded, he began. "So..2eggs, a pancake and sausage walk into a bar. The bartender yells out, 'Hey, we don't serve breakfast here.'"
Laughter ensues. Bella spit water out all over Rose, who stands quicky and knocks over Charlie and Jasper's beers, sending a stream of foam right onto Esme. They weren't sure what was more funny, the joke or the aftermath.
After all the hilarity, everyone decides to call it a night. On the drive home Edward continues his subtle stroking. He runs his hands down the length of Bella's hair and under to the soft spot on her neck. He runs his hand down her arm and revels as the goose bumps pop up all over her skin.
"Edward?" Bella questions breathlessly.
"I'm sorry, am I bothering you baby?" Edward asks innocently.
"You know exactly what you are doing, honey. You are gonna pay when we get home." She threatened.
"Oh, am I?" He smirked. He couldn't wait to see what his wife was going to do.
Edward pulled into the driveway of the house and turned off the engine. Bella walked up and unlocked the door. She stepped in, not bothering to turn on the lights. When she heard the door click behind her she turned and pressed her mouth to Edward's. She backed him against the wall and pushed her tongue between his lips. He responded with a groan. He brought his arms up and fisted them in her hair, as their tongues dueled. Bella fisted her hands in his shirt and ripped the buttons apart, hearing them scatter across the hard wood. She scraped her fingernails down his chest, causing him to hiss.
Edward turned them so that Bella's back was against the wall. He ran his hands down her sides and pulled at the hem of her shirt yanking it over her head, tossing it aside. He palmed her breasts, running his thumbs over her erect peaks. He leaned down and took a nipple between his teeth through the lace of her bra. She moaned at the contact. Edward kissed his way up Bella's chest and neck before taking her mouth with his.
Bella was busy trying to get his jeans undone. She flipped his belt loose and then reached for the button. Once that was open she unzipped him and freed his throbbing erection from the confines of his pants and boxers. "Bella.."
"Touch me..Edward..please." Edward reached down and lifted her skirt and found her moist center. He ripped her thong and tossed the scraps before running his finger through her slick folds. He pinched her throbbing clit and swallowed her cries with his mouth. He flicked her once, twice and then inserted a finger into her warm center.
"You're so wet for me baby. What do you want?" He never stopped his ministrations.
Bella reached between them and stoked his hard cock making him hiss. "I want you..inside me..NOW!"
Edward removed his fingers from her and grabbed her ass and lifted her. Bella wrapped her legs around Edward's waist, leaving his dick poised right outside her entrance. He slammed home, making them both groan. Edward's thrusts were long and deep as he hit her just right every time.
Bella could feel the tightening in her belly and urged Edward on.
"Harder..Fuck me harder, Edward."
"You gonna come for me baby?" Edward could feel the tightening in his balls and thrust harder. He felt Bella's walls tighten around him and exploded with her. The only sound that was heard in the house was their erratic breathing as they came down from their high. Edward carried her to the bedroom, never removing himself from her heat.
"Stay in bed, baby. This is how I want to remember you when I see you in my dreams." Edward didn't want Bella to come to the departure center. He didn't think he could get on the plane if he saw her crying again.
Bella rolled over and pulled the sheet up to cover her naked breasts. "Are you sure? Edward, I want to be there."
Edward watched as the tears formed in her eyes. "Don't cry, love. I don't think I could leave you if you do. Then I would be in a lot of trouble."
Bella took a deep breath and dried her eyes. "I love you Edward. You better come back to me."
"I love you. So much. I will come back." Edward kissed her one last time and picked up his bag and headed for the door. He stopped when he heard her yell from the bedroom.
"I love you!"
"I love you, too!" He opened the door and went out to Emmett's waiting jeep.
Edward tossed his bag in the back and hopped in, "Morning, bro."
"Did you convince her to stay?" Emmett asked, as he passed Edward a cup of coffee.
"Yes. She was in bed. I hated to leave her man. She almost started to cry. She's a lot stronger than I give her credit for. I need you to keep an eye on her Em."
"I will. You know that. Don't worry about her. You worry about you." Emmett pulled into the center and Edward got out and grabbed his bag.
Emmett came around the side and did the one-armed man hug. He watched as Edward boarded his flight and then got back in the jeep and headed to work. He couldn't imagine having to leave Rosie. Since his injury, he knew that would never happen.
When he got back to the office he called Bella and let her know that Edward got off okay and to call if she needed anything. She said she would and they hung up.
Jasper walked into the training center and looked around at his new home away from home. He was going to be a drill instructor at Fort Irwin. The new recruits that were assigned there would be arriving in a few days and he was going to take this time to acclimate himself to the inner workings of the camp.
Alice was thrilled that he wouldn't have to leave any time in the neat future. She was busy planning her dream wedding. She just wished that her parents were around to see it. She was going to ask, Emmett to walk her down the aisle. He was like a brother to her and she couldn't think of anyone else more appropriate. She spent her day going over seating charts while she waited for Jasper to come home.
Rosalie wasn't in planning mode. She was working on an engine that was giving her fits. She knew that it needed a new timing belt, but for some reason it was still acting up. She went through her diagnostic checks again and threw up her hands. She decided to walk away from it for a while and get some air.
While everyone went about their busy days, a man flew over the ocean thinking about his beautiful bride.
