Sorry it took so long to get you a new chapter. I'm hoping things are will be calming down now. So please enjoy the new chapter and please take the time to review.
Like always, all character belong to Stephanie Meyer.
Chapter 11 Just let me be in love
My breath is short, my heart is beating fast
Every time I smile at her she's smiling back
If I'm dreaming, please just let me sleep
Anyone can see that she's too good for me
Oh, give her time, she'll find out soon enough
Just let me have and hold her 'til she does
What we've got going on is so incredible
This chemistry between us feels so wonderful
But knowing me, I'll probably
Find a way to mess it up
Who knows, who cares, right now
Just let me be in love
Don't concern me with reality
Don't convince me she's too heavenly
Forget the future, disregard the past
Those are questions I don't want to ask
To my heart, all that matters is tonight
Just let me live this moment in her eyes
What we've got going on is so incredible
This chemistry between us feels so wonderful
But knowing me, I'll probably
Find a way to mess it up
Who knows, who cares, right now
Just let me be in love
What we've got going on is so incredible
This chemistry between us feels so wonderful
But knowing me, I'll probably
Find a way to mess it up
Who knows, who cares, right now
Just let me be in love
Who knows, who cares, right now
Just let me be in love
Let me be in love
I just want to be in love

I hated the thought of waking Bella, she has only been sleeping about30 minutes, but our dinner will be here in half an hour. I spent the time she slept to replay what happened here again in my mind. How her lips brought me back to life. Her lips alone woke parts of me that died the day she walked out of my house. My heart soared every time she told me she loved me. I would never tire of hearing those words from her lips.
I have been with a few women in my day, but nothing compares to how it feels to make love to my Bella. We were as prefect there as we were in everything else. We came to life together when we were together like that. Being connected to Bella like that is where I always want to be. I always want to be with Bella physically. Now that we have been intimate, it was a need. I now could not live without that intimate connection.
I changed my gentle rubs on Bella's back to make them a little harder to wake her.
"Bella, love. It is time to wake up." She groaned a little and pushed her head a little more into my chest. "Angel, dinner will be here soon." She lifted her head a little and looked up at me.
"I didn't order dinner." she smiled at me.
"I did when I checked in. Go shower, it should be here by the time you get out."
"What if I want to stay right here with you in bed." Then she kissed my chest.
"I would love to stay in bed with you. We can just stay in bed and eat." I kissed the top of her head and Bella let out a content sigh.
We just laid together for some time enjoying being together. I loved the feeling of Bella in my arms. I felt Bella tighten her hold on me.
"I missed you so much. I thought I would never feel this again." I heard Bella whisper as I felt a tear fall on my chest. I moved her head so I could look her in the eyes. I was surprised to see pure joy in them and a smile on her face.
"I missed you, too. I missed holding you, kissing you, talking to you, and must of all I missed knowing you would be home when I got there. Most importantly I've missed this feeling of being complete, whole and completely content when I'm with you. If you will let me, I want to keep feeling this way with you for a very long time."
"For as long as you want me."
"Well beautiful, I plan on keeping you for a very, very long time." I smiled at her and kissed her as she smiled back.
Shortly before dinner showed up I got up and put on my sleeping pants. Bella just put on the white button down I was wearing. We straightened the blankets up on the bed and ate our dinner right on the bed.
"So the year I started high school I moved to Forks Washington." Bella told me. We had been sitting on the bed for 2 hours just talking. To really think about it I didn't know that much about Bella's past.
"What took you to Forks."
"Well, my mom just got married; her new husband Phil travels a lot, he was a baseball player, Renee wanted to go with him. So I decided it was time to move up to Charlie's. Well, anyways Charlie and his best friend Billy kept pushing me and Billy's son Jacob together. About a year after I moved there Jacob and I started dating. It went good for some time. In my senior year Jacob kind of changed. He got bossy, demanding and started belittling me. I took it for awhile, then one day I couldn't take it no more and ended things." I sat and watch Bella's face as she told her story. I saw sadness cross her face. I could also see hurt behind her eyes, it hurt me to see that hurt in her eyes.
"Well, Charlie didn't take our brake up well. Jake told Billy a bunch of shit about me. In turn Billy told Charlie. I'm not sure what Charlie believed, if he believed anything Jake said, it didn't matter my relationship with my dad was damaged. My mom was on the road with Phil so I couldn't go home to her, so I just suffered through the silent treatment Charlie gave me until I left for college. I haven't really talked to my dad."
"I'm sorry, love. Your dad should have not acted like that." I said as I pulled Bella up on my lap and held her.
"He had his chance to make it right. I called him when my mom passed away. He came down for the funeral and as soon as it was over he left." By the time she was done tell me all this she was in tears. All I could do was hold her and let her cry it out.
How could someone who has never experience what a truly loving relationship was still have hope of hiding one? I'm counting my lucky stars she never gave up on finding love. I'll just make sure she knows what it is like to be loved.
"Come on beautiful. Let's call it a night." I suggested after the tears stop.
Bella crawled under the covers and I pulled her close to me.
"I love you." Bella whispered before pressing her lips to mine.
"Love you, too." Then she snuggled down on my chest and full asleep quickly.
I woke in the morning and decided to let Bella sleep. I was in the bathroom going through my morning routine when I heard Bella get up. I felt her wrap her arms around me from behind and press a kiss on my bare back.
"Morning handsome."
"Morning beautiful."
She gave me a tight squeeze then went to fill the tub. I walked out to the other room to grab my shaving kit.
"I'll shave quickly and be out of your way." I said as I walked back into the bathroom.
"No hurry." She commented as she walked out of the room.
Bella wrap her arm around me as I was putting shaving cream on. Then she moved and sat on the sinks counter top in front of me.
"Don't shave today." She said simply.
"Okay. Why?" This kind of stumped me. I always shaved every morning and again in the early evening if I was going out.
"Edward, I love you, but you are just a little uptight about some things. I want you to loosen up a bit. Let's start with you not shaving today."
"Loosen up; you want me to loosen up?" I asked giving her my crooked smile that I knew made her mind turn to mush. I lifted my hands up to lightly grab the back of her head. "Okay, I'll loosen up."
Then I rubbed my cheek up against her cheek. She started to scream and laugh at the same time. I moved over to get the other side of her face as she tried to push me away.
"Edward." She yelled through her laughs.
"Oh, come on sweetie, you wanted me to loosen up." I teased as I picked her bridal style and carried her over to the bath tub.
"No, Edward, don't."
"Sweetie, you are only in my shirt. It won't be too bad. You said you wanted me to loosen up." I said in a sickle sweet voice.
"You know how I hate having wet clothes on." She pleaded as I put her in the almost full tub.
Bella sat up in the tub soaked with a evil smirk on her face. That smirk didn't register in my brain. I was too busy looking at my now wet shirt, now see through, clinging to her perky breast. She cupped water in her hands and washed the shaving cream off her face.
"Edward, come here. Let me get the shaving cream off your face."
Of course being hypnotized by her breast, I moved into her reach. As soon as she was done removing all the shaving cream off my face, she moved her lips to mine.
As we kissed she reached her arms around me and pulled me into the tub with her.
"Oh beautiful, you did it now." I scolded her as I started to tickle her sides.
As Bella thrashed around she splashed water all over on the outside of the tub.
"Stop Edward." Bella laughed and screamed.
"Oh sweetie, this is what you wanted, me to loosen up." I said as I kept tickling her sides.
"But Edward, I have to get ready so we can check out." She somehow got out through her laughs.
"Okay, I'll quit, but we don't have to get ready to check out. We don't have to check out until tomorrow night."
"Well, then I suggest you take your boxers off and take a bath with me."
I washed Bella's hair. It got a little more fun when I washed every inch of her beautiful body. She kindly repaid the favor.

After I was done in the bath I ordered some breakfast. Edward just had got out of the tub as I went to the door to get our food. I put the food in the living room of our suite and walked back into the bedroom to remove my robe. I wasn't going to answer the door in my underwear and tank top. I found Edward standing in front of the closet putting his bag away after getting clothes out. I quickly crossed the room and wrapped my arms around him. I placed kisses on his bare back up to neck as far as I could reach.
"Let's go eat." I said as I grabbed Edward's hand.
We had a nice breakfast, then lazed around the suite for the rest of the day. We talked, we kissed and just cuddled. But mostly just enjoyed being together.
One point when Edward was in the bathroom I ordered dinner. Then I sent him out to the store, to get something so he was out of the suite when dinner came.
When Edward came back I had dinner set up in the living room with tons of candles all over. I put my white nightgown and robe set on I got weeks ago, but never got to wear. I brought here with me with hopes I would get to wear it.
Edward walked into our suite and stopped to look around. It took him a second to find me standing by the table. He walked over to me and put his hands on my faces.
"You are breathtaking." Then he pressed his lips to mine. As soon as his lips touched mine our dinner was quickly forgotten.
With Edward's lips still on mine he swiped me up into his arms and carried me to the bedroom. He moved his lips long my jaw then down my neck as he gently laid me down on the bed.
When we left the bed again, our dinner was cold but we were still able to eat it. We put the candles out and sat on the floor to eat as we talked.
"I didn't date much in high school. I did have a relationship with a girl named Tonya. We started dating my junior year." Edward told me. "At first we were great together. I really cared a lot for her. I thought she cared the same back. We dated for about a year before I saw her true colors. She was mean and purposely cruel to Alice and Emmett. The three of us, Alice, Emmett and I, have always been close, but when I started dating Tonya we drifted apart. I didn't see it, Alice and Emmett tried to tell me some of the things Tonya was doing, but I would not listen. So anyways, One day Tanya was not in school, so I left early to go check on her to find her with in bed with some else." Edward told me his story with a faraway look in his eyes. I could tell by the look on his face this was a painful time in his life. "Tonya didn't take our break up well. She would try to talk me into dating her again. After that didn't work she started to spread stories around school about me. After Tonya I didn't date much."
I crawled up onto Edward's lap. He looked so sad like he was reliving it all in his head. I wanted to take all his pain away. I wrapped my arms around him, just to hold him. He pulled me tight to him. I didn't know what to say to him to make him feel better, so I said the only thing I could think of.
"Edward, I love you." He pulled away to look at me. The sadness and pain was replaced with the most beautiful smile I have ever seen.
"I love you, too beautiful." He said before our lips met.
6 O'clock Sunday night we were checking out. I was going to miss our hide away. I told Edward I would met him at home. The whole way home was sad. I wasn't ready for Edward to go back to work. I stop to pick us up some carry out for dinner. So Edward beat me home. He was out the door as soon as I pulled into the garage.
I was quiet all through dinner. Edward didn't try to make me talk either.
"Bella?" He called me by my name. He doesn't do that very often. So I looked up at him. "Why are you so quiet tonight?"
"I'm not ready for you to leave." I stated. He came around the table and turned me toward him.
"I feel like teasing you a little bit, but you look so sad, so I won't. Baby, I took a week off from work. By next Sunday you are going to be sick of me and ready to kick me out the door." I was so happy I just threw myself into his arms.
"I could never get sick of you."
"What are we going to do with the rest of our night?" Edward asked.
"I'm going to clean up the dinner dishes. Then I'm going to change."
"You go change. I'll clean up the dishes."
I got a little spoiled at the hotel with just running around in just my tank top and boy shorts. My clothes were feeling tight. So I got one of my spaghetti strap summer dresses out to wear. I even went bra less. But hell I was comfortable.
I found Edward still in the kitchen finishing up the dishes.
"Need help?" I offered.
"Nope, Done." He said putting the last dish in the drainer. Then he turned toward me. "Well, don't you look comfortable. I like that dress on you."
He came over to me and took me in his arms. A nice, sweet kiss turned passionate. Before I knew it he had me up on the counter top and I was removing his shirt. The few times we have been together were sweet and gentle. This time it was full of need.
Lips and hands were everywhere. Soft kisses were replaced with little bites. His hands slowly slide the straps of my dress down my shoulders followed by his lips and tongue.
I got lost in the feelings Edward was making my body feel. I felt his hand slowly moving up my thighs under my dress which made me part my legs wider. When his hand reached my hips he pulled me closer to him.
When Edward moved his lips from my collar bone down to my breast, my body was on fire. I needed him now.
"Edward, please I need you." I whispered breathlessly to him, as I pulled his lips to mine.
Edward lifted me off the counter top setting me back on the floor I quickly undid his belt and pants letting them drop to the floor.
"Bedroom?" He asked, which I just shook my head no.
He quickly put his hands under my dress and pulled my panties down to join his pants on the floor. Then I jumped into his arms wrapping my legs around him causing a small laugh to escape his lips before I crashed my lips to his.
He spin us around to push me up against the wall. With his hands on my hips he adjusted me to where he needed me to be. With one quick thrush he entered me forcefully. Loud moans filled the air. He stopped and held me close.
"Bella, you feel so good." He whispered.
I started to kiss along his neck to his ear and took his lobe between my teeth. Causing him to groan.
His thrust became fast and hard as I moaned his name.
When he leaned his head down and took my nipple in his mouth it sent me over.
"Oh, Yes Edward." Flew out of my mouth.
A few more thrush was all it took for Edward. He pulled me tight to him and chanted my name.
He carried me to his bed and gently laid me down. Then he crawled into bed and leaned over me.
"Bella, I love you so much." Then he kissed me softly.
"Love you, too."
He wrapped me into his arms.
"Sleep beautiful." He whispered in my ear.
