Song for Chapter
Poke Face- Lady GaGa
Chapter 7
The shirt was tight. Sequined fabric hugged my body lifting my breast. The halter hooked behind my neck leaving a fair share of cleavage showing. Impossibly, the skinny jeans were tighter. The dark denim fabric toured the contours of my butt, thighs, and legs. I was going to kill Alice because lacey thongs didn't leave underwear lines.
My hair was pulled up on top of my head and curled to flow behind me. My eye makeup was smudged and my lips were painted with gloss. I felt like a whore yet when I looked in the mirror I saw a girl who was going to be wanted by everyone. I saw a girl who I longed to be. Somewhere deep down inside, I wanted to be envied, loved, and hated for the obvious reasons. I wanted to have what no one else had. Right now, I had confidence.
I grabbed my ID, room key, and cell phone. I stuck my ID and key into my back pocket and stuck my cell phone in my bra. Alice told me to meet her at the hotel club at nine on the dot. I glanced at the clock seeing it was time enough and headed out the door.
I pushed the button on the elevator and I heard a voice not expected. "Someone's just looking for trouble." I turned to see Edward with a crooked grin on his face. His eyes widened and ran the length of my body.
It was my turn to grin. "Maybe I am, maybe I'm not." The elevator dinged and I stepped in pressing the button for the lobby. "What's it to you?"
His eyes seemed to darken. "Maybe I'm looking for trouble too." He challenged.
Maybe it was the clothes, maybe it was the atmosphere, but something came over me. I stepped toward him as if her were the prey and I were the predator. My eyes conveyed the angst yet determination. His eyes grew confused as he stepped back against the wall. I stalked toward him till his back was in complete contact with the back wall.
I leaned in toward his face enough were I could feel his shallow breaths upon my face. I stood on my tiptoes so my mouth was dangerously close to his ear and my body was pressed into his.
"I'm not sure I can help you with that Mr. Cullen." I tried to make my voice seductive and it must of worked because I felt the lump pressed against my stomach grow suddenly tighter.
The elevator dinged and I stepped away from him and strolled out the elevator like nothing had happened. I was in control tonight and I was going to have my fun. Riley or no Riley I deserved to have some fun. Out of sight out of mind.
I strode down the hallway and saw Alice waiting on the arm of Jasper. Rosalie and Emmett mirrored their stance. Alice wore a form fitting tube top with a short skirt while Rosalie wore low cut top and some skinny jeans. I actually looked like I fit in.
"Wow Bella, I think my jeans just got tighter." Emmett coughed out taking in my appearance. Rose slapped him and he just sulked.
"What's got you all hot and bothered Edward?" Jasper spoke up and I turned to look at Edward's face. His eyes were wide and he seemed to be standing in an awkward position.
Edward shook his head. "Just had a little bit of trouble on the elevator." He said leaving it there.
Alice shrugged and grabbed my hand dragging me toward the entrance. We could hear the loud music from where we were and it got louder as we headed toward it. When we reached entrance I could no longer hear the shuffling feet behind me. All I heard was the pulse of the music.
The bouncer took one look at Alice, Rose, and me and allowed us into the club. Jasper, Em, and Edward traveled closely behind us and as soon as we made it a ways in Jasper and Emmett possessively wrapped their arms around their girlfriends. I on the other hand was free to do what I wished.
I headed toward the bar and ordered a fruity drink showing the bartender my ID. I turned toward the dance floor and scanned the crowd deciding just how far I wanted to take the fun.
"Your drink, miss." The bartended tapped me on the shoulder.
I smiled at him and took a sip. I caught a flash of black in my peripheral vision and I saw that a cute guy with spiked brown hair ordered a drink. He glanced at me and sat down turning toward me.
"Wow, hey, um, come here often?" I listened to him struggling for words.
I laughed. "I love corny pick up lines." I grinned taking another sip of my drink.
HE flashed me a smile. "That's good, because I'm full of them." He paused. "These beds here are kind of creaky. Will you come test the springs for me?"
I stared at him in shock and took another sip of my drink. "You wish. Go play in traffic." I stood up leaving my drink sitting there and made my way to the dance floor.
Bodies meshed together in intimate ways and I fell into place with them. It wasn't long before I felt large hands on my hips. Something brushed against the right side of my head and I heard the familiar voice. "No strings. Just me and you." Edward's voice was like honey and his invitation was irresistible. So, I didn't resist.
I let my body mold to his. His hands ran the length of my body and I let them. Touches turned into feeling. Feeling turned into caressing. Caressing turned into groping. My skin was on fire and I loved every minute of it. He bent down showering my neck with soft kisses. I didn't even stop him when his kisses got considerably higher. Instead I turned around facing him and wrapping my arms around his neck. Could we handle no strings attached?
I looked into his burning eyes seeming to ask him this question. His eyes held the same answer that was resounding through my head. It didn't matter if we could handle it or not. Nothing was stopping us tonight. There was no possessive boyfriend and no perfect girlfriend. My body craved his as his craved mine.
His arms slipped down to my butt and I jumped at his touch. He let a wicked smile form on his lips and then I felt the tug at my arm. I looked to see Alice. Her expression was shocked and possibly a little mad.
"What are you doing?" She yelled and was absolutely mad.
I was shocked by the answer that Edward gave her. "Something I should have done a long time ago." He shot back at her.
He then grabbed my chin and pulled my lips to his. The kiss wasn't one of meager status. His tongue dove into my mouth and caressed my own tongue while exploring my mouth. He tasted sweet with a hint of spearmint. It been too long since I had a taste him and he was better than I had remembered. Right then the strings had been attached. This was real.
Edward pulled away. His eyes were wide his breath coming in gasps. He bent his head back down to my ear. "You ready to go?" He asked his eyes silently begging.
I nodded. "Let's blow this joint."
He slipped an arm around my waist and maneuvered me through the sweaty bodies. His grip tightened as we flowed past a line of ravenous eyes. He pulled me through the entrance and seemed to pick up pace. I was waiting for him to change his mind. I was waiting for my mind to comprehend what was happen and put an end to it.
Edward pulled me into the darkness of his room and clothes fell silently to the floor. He pulled me to his body and the erratic rhythm of our hearts seemed to stay in beat. Every word said to hurt was gone. Every word of regret left unspoken was expressed. Every thought of Riley and Rachel were gone.
I fell asleep in the arms of the one I loved more than life itself. For just the moment, life seemed almost perfect.
I woke to the annoying buzz of my cell phone. I glanced over to see Edward. He had one arm around me, the other lying above him on the pillow. I quietly slid from his grasp and crept to the place where my jeans lay in a pool on the ground. I slid my hand in the pocket and Alley's name flashed on my screen.
"Aw crap. Alley, writing, Riley." My brain spoke to me. Guilt inundated me and I looked over to Edward all remorse gone. Riley or no Riley, I loved Edward. This was right.
I flipped open the phone. "Hello?"
"Hey angel. How's New York?" Her voice was too perky to be mad.
I took another glance at Edward. "Perfect."
She giggled. "Hm, well that's good. How is the writing going?"
I sighed crawling back into bed pulling my legs up to my chest. I pulled the covers up to my chin and watched Edward in his peaceful slumber. "Well you know how I was having trouble with the ending?" I asked knowing she would say yes.
"Yes." She sighed. It had been a debacle earlier in the year.
I ran a finger over the muscles in Edward's arm. A trail of goose bumps formed where my finger glided. "Well." I whispered. "I think I've found my ending."
She coughed. "Well I got to go. But get to writing okay?"
I glanced around Edward's room and then back to Edward himself. It seemed I had been without seeing him for too long. I wasn't going to pull away now. "M'kay. Thanks Alley. I'll see you when I see you."
She sighed. "Oh and Bella."
"Yeah?" I answered absentmindedly.
"I don't know what your ending entitles, but take care of yourself." Her concern was wise but unneeded.
I sighed. "I'm living life for me now Alley. I need this." I flipped the phone shut and continued to study Edward and his features. He was my first and hopefully only.
I heard another buzz and glanced at my phone on the table. After deciding that it wasn't in fact my phone I got up in search of Edward's pants. I found his jean in a pool like my own and pulled out the cell phone. Without thinking I flipped it open.
"Hello?" I greeted still on my Edward high.
"Bella?" Rachel's voice was surprised. "Why do you have Edward's phone."
A/N: Total cliffie I know. I hope you're happy for the moment. So Alice knows that this will only cause chaos. Rachel calls Edward's phone only to find Bella? What will their excuse be? Will they need one? Was last night just a slip of passion and desire?
