Chapter Eleven:
The day had been rather long in his opinion. He had to fire Lauren for insubordination which though he knew it had to be done he took no pleasure from it. The only thing that had kept him same all the rest of the day was in knowing Bella had done something special just for him.
He sighed as he stepped out of his car and began walking towards the house. As he opened the door his senses took over. He heard Tracy Chapman in the background playing softly, and candles were displayed thought out the living room and dining room. The scent of freshly baked apple pie and manicotti informed him of one thing. Bella had cooked him dinner.
He walked slowly into the kitchen and caught his breath. Bella was standing in his kitchen softly singing to the music while she chopped the salad. It seemed as though she belonged there, and the thought of her with him sat comfortably on his shoulders. He gently cleared his throat so as not to startle her, and smiled when she met his gaze. "So umm… Surprise?" she said softly.
Edward walked up to her and hugged her. "Thank you for breakfast this morning, and the keyboard."
"I just hope I didn't overstep any boundaries…" she said softly, a slight blush appearing on her face.
"Don't worry, no boundaries were broken. Actually, to be perfectly honest, your gifts were the highlight of my day."
"I'm glad you liked them." She looked up into his apple green eyes and nearly lost herself. He was breathtaking, with his dishelmed bronze hair, and crooked half grin that she couldn't stop herself from raising to her tiptoes so that her face was almost level with his. She leaned towards his mouth and brought her lips to his kissing them softly. Edward latched onto her lips as if he was a starving man, and she was the prime rib of the meal.
Her soft moan as his hand slid into her hair burned him. The kiss was over too soon though. Bella pulled away from him. She laughed as Edward gently tugged on his hair in frustration. "Go clean up for dinner, I'll be setting the table."
"Okay." He said giving her a quick kiss before going into the bedroom.
Walking into my bedroom, I couldn't help the smile that crossed my face thinking of Bella's sweet smile and lovely brown eyes. She was compassionate, intelligent, the most beautiful woman in the world, and I would be a complete and total dumbass if I let her go.
I was falling in love with Bella Swan, and though the thought should have scared the shit out of me, it didn't. Three weeks ago if someone would have told me I would be falling head over heels in love with someone, I would have laughed in their face, but now, I just sigh and a goofy grin touches my lips.
I quickly walk into my closet looking for something to match Bella's attire, but come up with nothing. I turn back towards my room and spot clothes on my bed. Walking towards them I saw that Alice had picked out a pair of dark blue loose fitting jeans, a light tan turtleneck sweater, and my body spray. 'Thank you Alice.' I thought to myself as I scooped up my clothes, headed into the bathroom, and started the shower.
Bella's smile continued to cross my mind, then the feel of her silky light chocolate hair, and I couldn't help the groan that escaped my lips. I was already hard with the thoughts that I was having for the goddess in my kitchen, and all I had done was kiss her. There was no way that I was going to be able to control myself around her when just the feel of her hair and lips against my skin sent me into a deep wanting passion.
I needed to find release, or I wouldn't be able to control my primal urge to attack her and claim her as mine. The thought of her moans sent my hand around my shaft, slowly stroking it thinking of her lips starting at my neck and licking her way down my body. My hands caressing her back and sliding up into her hair as her face reaches my waist. I look down at her face and I see her looking up at me with those doe eyes as if begging me to allow her to wrap her pretty little mouth around my throbbing cock.
The knowing smile that appears on her face tells me all I need to know about what is about to happen, and before she even does anything, just the thought makes me moan. The next thing I know I feel her tongue flick across my tip licking up the bit of juice that had appeared there. My hands tightened in her hair as my hips were thrusting slightly towards her face. It was that moment that she took me completely into her mouth. I felt her nose brush against my happy trail and her hands snake up to my thighs.
As she sucked me deeply inside her mouth I jolted further into her mouth when one of her hands left my thigh and cupped my balls rubbing and massaging them. She was a goddess, knowing just how to please me, and I would be her humble servant if only she ask.
With a few more quick strokes and the thought of Bella swallowing me, I came on the shower wall. This woman was going to be the death of me, I was sure, but what a way to die and be reborn.
I quickly finished my shower and dressed. I didn't want to make Bella wait too long. Forgoing socks I walked out into the living area and saw Bella scrambling around the kitchen distracted. "Bella, is everything alright?"
"Bella, is everything alright?" Edward said to me as he walked out of his room. If only he knew!
I had to think fast about a response that I could make rather believable, because I knew I couldn't tell him the truth. "Umm, yeah, I got distracted when I was looking at your music collection. I was rather impressed with the vast differences you have with music. I mean, you have music from every decade, and you being my age it wasn't something that I expected. You have music from Bessie Smith, Sammy Kaye, Les Brown, Frankie Valley and the four seasons, Dusty Springfield, Sandie Shaw, The Andrew sisters, I mean look at your collection!" I said. His collection was like the ark compared to mine, but he had a lot of the musical artists that I listened to and loved.
Edward laughed. "I wouldn't have taken you for a girl that liked the oldies." He said with the crooked grin that turned me into a mental puddle of goo.
"Oh yes, that was when music was good, now you have to listen to people screaming into a microphone, and not understanding much of anything that they say. It gives me a damn headache sometimes."
"Well then remind me never to play slipknot or something heavy for you." He said and I couldn't help but laugh.
"So shall we have dinner?" I asked sweetly.
"I would love that. It smells great." He walked over to my chair and pulled it out for me so that I could sit, then pushed me in. He smelled like a cross between heavenly angel and deviant devil at the same time, and the scent of him sent me back to what I had walked in on just minutes ago.
I didn't want to rush him, but I was worried that I really had overstepped my boundaries when I allowed myself into his home and made him dinner. I had heard the shower when I opened his bedroom door. I was going to just knock on the bathroom door and tell him dinner was done, but he had left the door slightly opened. There really is no excuse for what I was about to do, but in my defense, that man did crazy things to my girlie parts and I wanted to know if seeing all of him would capture my overwhelming desire. I was not disappointed.
Opening the door slowly I saw Edward standing under the shower. His back was to me so at least I knew that he couldn't see me. My eyes scanned over the man. When my eyes reached his ass I moaned softly; I was worried he heard me, because of his quick intake of breath, but then I realized what he was doing.
Edward was jerking himself off, and just thinking about the risk that I was taking being in his bathroom watching him was so erotic that I was instantly aroused. My nipples were hard and I was thoroughly wet through my panties. I took a slow step towards the shower, part of me wishing I was in that shower using my mouth on his, the other appalled by what I was doing. It was then that Edward called my name as he came and I quickly rushed out of his bathroom and quickly into the kitchen, which brought us to the here and now.
We sat in silence for a few moments when he decided to break it. "This is absolutely fabulous." I didn't hear him say that though. My mind was in the gutter after seeing him in all of his natural glory, so I heard. "You are completely breathtaking."
"Thank you." I said. I knew if I didn't get naughty Bella in check this whole evening would turn into a complete disaster. "So how was work?"
Edward stared at me for a moment then laughed bitterly. "Well, I had to fire one of the people today. She deserved to be fired, but I have firing anyone."
"Well, sometimes you have to do things you don't want to do Edward, but at the end of the day you are only responsible for your actions. This girl must have realized her time was coming to a close."
"She's been a problem pretty much since the beginning of her employment. I can't get into the details about it, but yet again this day only was survivable because of you and your gifts. Thinking of you brought a smile to my face throughout the day."
I couldn't hide the blush that began to appear across my face. Edward was thoughtful, sweet, and even though I really liked him, I knew better than to trust him completely. Men like him would say anything to make a girl weak in the knees so that they can have their way with them. Though I will admit that the more time I was spending with him, was really starting to make me question if my thoughts on men like him were right.
Edward didn't fit the classic 'male chauvinistic pig' setup like other males of his stature. He wasn't overly confidant in himself; he just knew that he was smart and could handle basic problems. He didn't brag about his background. Just because he came from privilege, didn't mean that he just sat around using his mommy and daddy, or some trust fund that was set up on. He was a good person, smart, caring, would have given you the shirt off his back type of person, and being honest with myself for just this brief moment I had to admit, he was everything I wanted in a good man and more. God, why did I have to live so far away?
While I was away in my own thoughts Edward interrupted me. "Bella, so are you going to tell me what I did to deserve you cooking me dinner?"
I looked at him with a genuine smile on my face. "The truth is that I was hoping that I could talk to you about Charlie. I want to better understand who he was. I lived with that man all my life and the only things I really know about him was that he took his coffee with just a light splash of cream, ate everyday at the diner unless I left him a note telling him that dinner was in the fridge, and that he couldn't even stomach looking at me because I look like my mother."
So Bella wanted to know about her father. How was I going to tell her of all the memories I had of him and not make her hate him more than she already did? Did I really even have a choice? Looking into her eyes I knew, there was no way out of this conversation; I just hoped that I would be able to shed some light on what made Uncle Charlie the way that he was. "Well Bella, what do you want to know?"
