Again, sorry it took me long! I've had AP testing all week! But I am very excited about this chapter, although I do have to tell you that writing lemons is not easy. It's very awkward, actually. So if its not as graphic as you're used to, my apologies. I wanted it to be more sensual than anything, especially since it's their first time. Okay read and tell me what you think!! I'll catch you at the bottom.
SM OWNS….

"What?" I whispered against his lips.
"I love you." He said pulling away so that our foreheads were touching.
"Say it again."
"I love you." He said once more, a smile taking flight across his face.
"One more time." I replied, my own face parting into a wide grin.
This time he laughed before his lips caught mine in a kiss that was by far the most breath taking of them all.
"I love you Bella."
"I love your smile." Kiss.
"I love your laugh." Bigger kiss.
"I love your lips." Huge kiss.
"I love the way you yawn when you're nervous. I love the way you giggle at pointless commercials that are not funny. I love the way you order a double whopper with everything on it only to end up eating it plain. I love the way you crinkle your nose when you're deep in thought. But most importantly…" he said, pausing long enough to kiss me once more.
"I love the way you make me feel."
And with that my lips reacted.
"Me too." I stuffed in between kisses. "I mean, I love you to."
He smiled slightly before his lips returned to mine. "I know."
Our kisses, if possible, turned more passionate by the second. Before I knew it, he was carrying me to his bedroom. I felt my back fall against his comforter as I broke away to breath. I pulled off my soaked shirt, exposing my sports bra as Edward kneeled on top of me to meet my lips. Seconds later I shivered as I felt soft pecks cascade down my neck and into the crane of my collarbone.
Sparks flew through my fingers as they ran down his toned chess. It was as if my senses had been lying dormant anticipating this moment. My breathing hitched as I felt everything zone into him, mounting with every passing minute. I could hear his shallow breaths on my skin, feel his soft mouth as it teased at every nerve, taste him on my lips, smell his sweet aroma at every inch of my body, all while watching his body rise and sink at every dip of my anatomy…
My hands wondered his body as we gained momentum. I stopped at his jeans and began to unfasten the buttons. One. By. One. My hands moved to his waistband and tugged slightly. I felt Edward's lips draw into a smile and within seconds they were gone. My hairs stood on end as his hands traveled to my sports bra. I lifted my arms and it too was gone. My heart sped as his hands began to untie the drawstring of my pants.
"Are you sure?" he whispered, his breathing short and quick but ceaseless along my skin. My mind flew to the meadow as I realized that this was the second time he'd asked me that question.
"Yes…I love you" I said craning my neck to kiss him softly on the lips. "I want you." My lips structured themselves around his but stopped moving, allowing his scent to filter in and out of my mouth. "Now." I whispered, my eyes fluttering close in arousal.
He smiled and closed the short distance between our lips.
Hovering over me, his hands trailed along my bare midriff.
"So beautiful..." He whispered, leaving a small kiss in the basin of my breasts.
After a few minutes of indulging in his gentle touches, I glanced down, noting that my legs were now bare. I lifted a leg and slowly wrapped it around Edward's. My body was no longer damp from the rain, but rather damp with anticipation. My feet curled as I felt his body descend down mine.
"I love you." he whispered between breaths and I felt his lips tug at the edge of my underwear. Slowly he pulled them away, leaving me bare and anxious.
"I love you" I replied, grabbing at his hips, my hands fumbling at the edge of his briefs. Gradually I felt his warm skin replace the cotton fabric that was now slipping through my fingers.
As he stretched against me to kiss my lips I felt his arousal brush my area of bundled nerves. I whispered his name against his lips and moaned.
Feeling his body slide through my grasp, I looked down to find him positioning himself. I let my head roll to the pillow beneath me, relaxing my neck as my breathing quickened. Slowly I felt him maneuver into my entrance. I jerked at the intrusion, but immediately relaxed as his body curled into mine, his hands feathering at my waist. My back arched as I felt his manhood dilate my weakened walls. He fit perfectly.
With growing rhythm, my body tensed and simmered and I could feel myself close to the pleasurable peak. A peak I had never experienced…until now.

I smiled as I listened to the rhythmic sounds of Bella's breathing beside me. Immediately my mind flew to previous hours. I knew I hadn't been a virgin prior to Bella, but it felt as though making love to her was my first time. Her skin against my lips, the soft moans I elicited through her body…She made me fill alive in ways that I didn't know possible. It was all coming back three folds now as I felt Bella yawn under the sheets. I kissed the back of her neck and pulled her closer to my body, indulging in her sweet scent. I wanted it to be like this for the rest of my life. I wanted to wake up next to Bella every morning, her body nestled into mine, and know that everything was okay. Because everything was okay whenever I was with Bella.
"Edward?" I heard her whisper.
"Yes, love" I replied, kissing her neck once more. Really, I could've taken her then and there for the second time, but there was something more appealing in just having her in my arms.
She turned around so that she was facing me. I tightened my grip on her as she lightly kissed my lips.
"I love you." She said, smiling my favorite cheesy grin.
My body reacted before my head and I was on top of her within seconds. I smiled as she giggled from underneath me.
"I love you." I said as I kissed her. And as our kissed deepened I began to think that I'd never be able to stop. I'd lie in bed with Bella all week if I could. Just to feel her skin against mine made me react in ways that sent my body racing.
"I'm beginning to love the way that sounds." She said before kissing me again.
Glancing up at the clock, I sighed in annoyance. It was 10:20 and I had to be at work at 11:15. And it took at least twenty minutes just to get there.
"Stay" she whispered, noticing my distress.
"I wish I could." I said against her lips.
"Then stay." She said back, smiling, grabbing my waist.
"I have to work."
"Don't go." She whispered before she deepened our kiss.
"Bella…" I moaned when she finally let me breath.
"Mhmm?"
"I have to go."
"Okay," she said smirking, "Go." She gave me one last kiss and leaned back onto the pillow smiling at me.
I looked down at her and hesitated. After a minute, I finally dismounted off of her and headed towards the bathroom.
"What are you doing today?" I asked, grabbing clothes from my dresser.
"Uh, I don't have class so I'll probably go back to my apartment and work on my book."
I looked back at her and smiled. She was leaning on her elbow, her body entwined in my sheets. She looked beautiful.
"You can work on it here if you want." I said, closing my dresser.
"Here?" she asked yawning.
"Yah, use my laptop. I'll be home at 5:00 and we can go out to eat…and talk about things."
I watched as she draped a sheet around her torso and climbed out of bed.
"Okay." She said seconds later, wrapping her arms around my waist and craning her neck so that she could look at me.
"I'll be back before you know it." I said kissing her forehead.
"Okay" she said again, biting her lip. I frowned as I gave her one last hug. She only bit her lip when she was worried about something. What she had to worry about right now, I didn't know.
"Come take a shower with me." I said, kissing her fingertips.
And with that, I made love to Bella for the second time.

I plopped on the couch and watched Edward gather his things around the apartment. I was still high off of him from this morning and as I watched the muscular contours of his body arch and flex over and over again I wondered if and when I'd ever come down.
"Okay," he said from the door. "I'll be back soon." Giving me one last smile, he walked out.
I made my way to the kitchen and pulled out a glass. Before I had a chance to open the fridge, the front door suddenly burst open.
"Edward?" I asked, wheeling around the corner to find him racing towards me, keys in hand. "Did you forget something?"
"Yah", he said advancing still. "This". His arm wrapped around my waist as he seared my lips with a passionate kiss. I giggled at his eagerness but nonetheless melted at his touch.
"I love you Bella." He said turning towards the door once more.
I stood in silence as my lips inevitably curled into a smile. Those three small words seemed to say so much more every time they were spoken.
This was it. This is what I had waited for for fifteen years. So why was I so nervous?
*****************************************************************
The rest of the day trailed on at no particular speed. I worked on the book I was writing for hours on end, but as usual to no avail. I had started writing in middle school. Short stories here and there…nothing special. In fact I had almost given up on it all together until the day I walked in on Edward reading one. Much to my disapproval, he stayed up all night in my room finishing it in one sitting. I remember loving the feeling I got every time he laughed or commented on anything I wrote. So much that years later, here I was, majoring in journalism and writing my first book.
But as the day deepened, so did my nervousness. My thoughts lingered through what had happened in the past hours: the run…the heated fight….the heated sex… And now here I was, my back arched against his couch, wondering profusely what exactly we were. I know I was overreacting, but for some reason I needed to know that he wasn't going anywhere. Or rather, I needed to know that this was real. Because I was beginning to realize that once your dreams came true, your rational and sense of reality also conveniently kicked into overdrive.
I glanced at the clock as it rounded 5:30. Stretching, I stumbled to the kitchen to see if there was anything worth making. Surprisingly Edward kept his apartment well stocked.
Thirty minutes later, my forehead glistened with sweat as I stirred the second batch of noodles I had prepared. I sighed as I realized that they too were beginning to stick to the bottom of the pot.
Despite the fact that I knew I could not cook, I had deluded myself into thinking that I could whip up dinner and dessert in no time. After Edward called and said he would be home late, I decided to surprise him with whatever was simmering in the pot next to me. Or rather, I decided to keep myself busy so that I wouldn't go crazy with anxiety.
Giving up on the noodles, I made my way to the counter where flour blanketed the entire surface. I looked down at the lump of dough that was supposed to be chocolate chip and began spooning it onto the cookie sheet.
I cringed as I heard the front door open. "Bella?" I heard Edward say.
I let out a deep breath of frustration that sent flour circulating everywhere.
"In here!"
I turned to see Edward walking into the kitchen, fighting back a smile.
"What are you doing?" he asked looking as though he was going to combust into laughter at any second.
"Making you dinner." I replied, frowning at the cookie dough that was currently liquefying in front of me. I was pretty sure it was not supposed to do that.
"Since when do you cook?" he said, wrapping his hands around my waist and kissing my neck.
"I cook all the time." I lied, wheeling around so that I could kiss him properly. I smiled as I sunk into him, indulging in the taste of peppermint lingering in his mouth.
"Oh really?" he said, smiling against my lips.
"Yah taste one," I said, leaning back to hand him a cookie that was already done.
He smiled and bit into it. Almost immediately I watched his face retreat in discomfort.
"What?" I asked, panicked. "What's wrong?"
"Uh, nothing it's great," he said lifting the cookie into the air, and flashing me an unconvincing smile.
"It sucks doesn't it?" I said throwing the spatula into the sink and leaning against the counter.
"No, no, no." he said grabbing my hand. "Really, they're good." I watched as he slowly bit into it again. This time there was no hiding the look of disgust that trickled on to his face as he struggled to chew.
"You like it?" I asked incredulously, folding my arms across my chess and smiling.
"Yeah there good."
Watching him play along was quite amusing although I didn't see why he just didn't tell me they sucked and get it over with. But if he wanted to play, so would I.
"Then eat the whole thing." I said, raising an eyebrow.
I watched in horror as he stuck the whole thing into his mouth and swallowed.
"See…yum" he said rubbing his stomach.
"mmhh," I said dipping my finger in the remaining cookie dough batter.
"You don't think it's too sweet?" I asked inserting my finger into his mouth. I stifled back a laugh as he flinched at the concoction and shook his head no.
"You don't think it's too salty?" I asked again, hovering another finger over his mouth. This time I playfully smudged the dough across his bottom lip all the way down to his chin.
I felt his hand wrap around my waist and giggled.
"I was trying to be nice." He laughed as he gathered a handful of dough in his other hand.
"You wouldn't" I whispered as he leaned in closer.
Before I knew it I had wiggled out of his grip and was running from the now advancing mounds of cookie dough soaring in my direction.
"Edward!" I yelled as he grabbed my waist and pinned me down on the couch.
"Apologize". He said as he glided a finger of cookie dough along my collarbone.
"Okay okay," I whispered, grasping for air through fits of laughter.
My body tensed as I felt his tongue rake along my neck, swiping past mounds of dough.
"Okay," he said back.
I looked at him for what seemed like forever before I spoke.
"What are we Edward?"
"Huh?" he said, leaning in to kiss my neck.
"What are we?" I said again, leaning away from his lips.
"Well," he said, propping himself on his elbow. "Seeing as I'm having a hard time letting you go, I'm thinking I need to make you my girlfriend as soon as possible."
"Oh yah," I said, through a wide smile.
"Yep".
"I'm thinking your right." I said leaning in to kiss him.

Twenty minutes and a hot steamy shower later, we were laying on his sofa, watching our weekly Friday night movie.
