Suddenly his skin was flush with mine, and we were positioned under the steady stream of water from my shower. Being pinned against the tiles by Edward, I moaned as he kissed softly along my collarbone, leaving a trail of smoldering electricity on my wet skin. The contours of our bodies sliding against each other created an eruption of senses in my core. I knew now I could never be close enough to him. But this kind of intimacy was only ever present in my mind. Oh Edward, you and your stupid 'rules.' When I opened my eyes I was alone in the fog of my bathroom. The sound of running water splaying over my face flooded my thoughts. I twisted the knob off, grabbed a towel and hobbled into my room, stilled by the fresh visual of my fantasy. My eyes darted to the statue-like form gracefully perched on the corner of my bed. I smiled as I clumsily made a beeline for my closet. I grabbed a pair of jeans, a tank top and a sweater. I turned to toweling off my hair.
"It's 7:31," She stated forcefully. But a small smile played on her glossed lips. "You're lucky I waited until you were out of the shower. Anyways, let's get started!" She darted over to my side and before I could object, she was curling my hair and making up my face in the mirror of the bathroom. When she was finished, I have to admit I was scared to see the love child of Alice and time on her hands. I winced as I snuck a peek at the reflection. My hair was in a subtle wave flowing over my shoulders, with a thin line of eyeliner in the roots of my upper lashes. Mascara and peach lip-gloss polished the look smooth. I looked beautiful. "So, what do you think?" Alice pursed.
"Wow, Alice. It's wonderful. Thank you!" I smiled onto her shoulder.
"I knew you'd like it. We'd better get going, those boys are getting restless." Alice glided to down the stairs as I clumsily after her. Seconds later we were in Carlisle's Mercedes. I glanced out at the never-ending tree barrier flying past the window. My lazy eyes hooded over and when I flicked them open we were pulling into the front of the Cullen's property. Edward was standing on the front porch with a smug grin on his chiseled marble face. He was over to my door as I turned my head, and gently pulled my out to him. Pushing me into his side, we walked smiling at each other into the house.
"Why did I have to wake up alone thing morning?" I said trying to sound commanding, but ended up sounding more whiney than I had expected.
"Alice," He spoke as he pulled my coat off of my shoulders in the foyer.
"Oh, right." Is all I could manage to choke out as he unleashed his molten gaze onto me. I could feel my cheeks burning. Damn you Edward Cullen. I looked around the spacious house, and my attention was caught by Emmett lounging along the couch with Rosalie perched on his lap. Alice had disappeared by the time I was searching for her. She emerged from upstairs with Jasper in tow. Edward squeezed my hand as he led me to the love seat.
"So now that everyone's here, we can start family game night!" Alice announced shaking jasper's hand and the rest of her body.
"Aren't Carlisle and Esme coming too?" I questioned peeking over the back of the loveseat, looking for their familiar faces.
"Naw, they're hunting. They decided to let us do our own thing." Emmett grinned over to me. I couldn't help but wonder what was on the agenda tonight.
"Um, so family game night, hey?" I fumbled for my words. "What're we doing?" I heard a small chuckle erupt from Edward's chest. I looked around at everyone, but they kept focus on Emmett.
