Chapter thirteen

EPOV

I took a deep breath though it was uncalled for as I stood waiting impatiently on the porch for Bella. I heard her steps coming closer towards the door, if I had been human my heart would have been beating very fast at the sound of her approach knowing that it would not be long until I look upon her face. Then I heard her take an intake of breath, was she as nervous as I was? Then at last there she was, my angel.

She stared at me for a while, dazed. I smiled knowing that I had this affect on her. Then I noticed what she was wearing and gasped, quietly enough that she would not have noticed. I had never seen her in that shade of blue before, now I saw how beautiful it looked on her pale skin. I would definately have to reccommend her to wear that colour more often. I looked back at her face, she was still a little dazed.

"Hello" I said smiling, amused.

She shook her head to compose herself then said "Hi", though it was just a whisper.

He better not be anything like that Mike guy... -Charlie

Cheif Swan's footsteps were coming down the hall now which made Bella turn to face him as she said goodbye to him, obviously hoping that he would not make us linger around for him to give me the boyfriend inspection. But I wanted to make a good impression so I quickly introduced myself.

"I'm Edward Cullen. I'm very pleased to meet you, sir" I said politely.

"Well... nice to meet you, Edward" he replied as we shook hands.

Bella's father was obviously appeased by my respectful tone, whereas Bella glared at me. I playfully winked at her when Cheif Swan looked away, which caused her expression to clear and a light blush to spread across her cheeks. I stood in awe for a moment as once again her beauty overwhelmed me. They did not notice my little moment, but inside I was still frozen at the sight of her.

"We better get going" Bella said "I'll be back later, okay?"

"Sure" Cheif Swan replied absentmindedly "have a good time"

His mind seemed to be preocupied with the baseball game tonight, but from what I could gather he thought I was a nice guy which I was pleased about. I opened the passenger door of my volvo for Bella, wanting to appear as gentlemanly as possible. In a way I wanted her to compare our date to the one she had with Mike so that she would see the differance between me and that pathetic human, and hopefully realise that she desired my company more than his.

I wanted more than anything tonight for Bella to fall in love with me, or more for her to realise that she did love me. As much as I wished to deny it there was a now a part of me that believed Bella loved me, but there was another part trying more than anything not to hope for fear of disappointment. But today I was sure that what I had seen in Bella's eyes was love, but then I wondered maybe it was just attraction again, either way it was very close.

Alice had said that there would be progress with Bella tonight, if that meant Bella's realisation or simply getting closer to the day that she would I do not know. Progress is progress I told myself. But how much progress would be made tonight?

BPOV

I found out quite a lot about the Cullens and other vampires on the way to Port Angeles. I found out that they have a "royal" vampire family called the Volturi who live in Italy. That information scared me a little, mostly when I was told that if they knew about me and that I knew that they existed then there would probably be trouble. Edward reassured me however that they would most likely not harm me if they knew I was his imprint. But it still scared me for some reason whenever I heard the name.

Edward told me more about himself then, like when he was born, who his parents were, and how he became a vampire to begin with. He told me he was born in 1901 in Chicago, son to Anthony Masen(;I can't remember if thats his name or not so I just put that;) and Elizabeth Masen. Edward and his parents were taken ill in 1918 by the Spanish Influenza, and that was how Carlisle found him and then turned him to a vampire.

I asked about how you become a vampire, and Edward told me that vampires are venomous so when they bite their prey they are in too much pain to escape, but if the venom was left to spread then thats how you change them into a vampire. Apparently its extremely painful and takes up to three days for the transformation to take place. I didn't ask about anything else on that subject.

We arrived in Port Angeles in half the time it usually would have, probably due to Edward's maniac driving. Edward suggested we see the movie first and then eat, though of course he wouldn't be eating anything. I had a feeling we just wouldn't be going to McDonalds, as I saw a huge amount of money in Edward's pocket.

I obviously didn't want to see the same movie as the one I saw with Mike so I was eager to watch the horror option this time. I was a little surprised when Edward appeared just a enthusiastic in my choice of film but I put that thought aside and simply shrugged it off.

The film was pretty scary. There was constant gory scenes and repeatedly those kind of shocks you get when things jump out and say "boo!". About a quarter through the movie I ended up with my knees scrunched up to my chest and under my chin while attempting to sheild my eyes from the screen. Then I felt two cold arms wrap around me in a comforting manner. I looked up to see Edward holing me in his arms and looking quite intently, yet tenderly, at me. I had completely forgotten about the movie while I was staring in Edward's eyes until a huge scream came from the speakers and I covered my eyes once again when I saw the grusome picture on screen.

Edward held me a little tighter and placed my head under his chin. I jumped now and then when the loud sounds boomed from the speakers and whenever I did I felt Edward's lips press against my hair. But whenever I wasn't being scared of the film I thought about how nice it felt being in Edward's arms and feeling his lips kiss the top of my head. I would have liked so much to look into his eyes and see the love and adoration I knew I would see, but whenever I considered it another scream would come and I would quickly duck my head lower in my frightened state.

At last the movie ended and I got out of my position to stand as Edward stood from his seat next to me, obviously concerned I was still shaken from the movie, but my now composed expression seemed to convince him. As we walked out the theatre for some reason I suddenly felt that strong desire and need to touch him again like today, but not quite as strong, and judging from his face he felt it too. I reached out to hold his hand and was at once satisfied with the contact. He looked surprised for a moment but soon curled his large cold hand around my small warm one.

We continued to hold hands as we walked along the sidewalk. When I asked where we were going he told me we were going to an Italian resturant called "La Bella Italia". It did sound expensive as I had guessed. It looked expensive too as we walked closer and I clearly saw the sign claiming it's name.

When we walked in we were welcomed by a waitress with bleached blond hair and fake boobs. I was surprised by how much it bothered be when she welcomed Edward a little too warmly and seemed to completely ignore me for the moment, but Edward was too preocupied watching me. When she saw our joined hands and the way Edward looked at me she was obviously disappointed. I hid a smirk when she left our table dissatisfied. I looked up from my menu to find Edward staring at me. I blushed then went back to my menu.

"Have you decided what you want to eat?" he asked.

"Erm..." It all looked so expensive "I'll just have the mushroom ravioli"

I was suddenly curious as to what Edward was going to do. He could see the unspoken question in my face and just laughed.

"Seriously though, what are you going to eat? I mean you can't have nothing"

I looked around at the other customers. They were all eating food, it wouldn't go unnoticed if Edward was the only one with nothing in front of him.

"I think I'll have chicken" he said casually.

I thought he was kidding but when the waitress came back, leaning down to show more of her cleaverage (which went unnoticed by Edward as he didn't look away from me) he actually placed both our orders. I stared at him wide-eyed, he just smirked. I was interested to see how this would turn out, he could see the doubt in my eyes but he seemed more than ready to take on the challenge. A few minutes later the waitress set our food in front of us, this time she left without a word. I saw Edward smell the food and he grimaced in revulsion. I smirked.

"Doesn't it smell good?" I asked teasingly.

He hesitantly picked up his fork as he looked down at the meal before him. I felt sorry for him then.

"You don't have to eat it" I said.

He looked up at me. He continued to look at me for a moment, then his face became determined as he stook his fork in the food and placed it in his mouth. He awkwardly chewed it, his distaste evident. I found myself cringing, imagining how horrible it must taste to him. He looked at me again, this time smiling.

"Its not so bad" he teased.

We both laughed.

He continued to manly eat his food, cringing or grimacing occasionally, yet never once complaining. My meal was very good, the mushrooms were nice. I didn't think that he would eat all of it but he ate it down to the very bone. He seemed very proud of himself when he finished with a satisfied expression. We didn't bother getting desert, I doubt he could manage eating cake or something. We just continued to talk for a while, not caring about the time passing by or the resturant's decreasing numbers.

He asked me a great deal about my life. Just little things like my favourite movies, the books I'd read, the places I'd been to and the places I desired to go, the few friends back in phoenix, my relationship with my mother. I was sure I'd bore him eventually, but he looked intrigued throughout our conversation, like I was telling him about a newly found science discovery that could change the course of the future. At the end of an hour of talking I thought I would have ran out of information to give, but his questions always brought something new out of my mouth.

"We should probably get going" I realized as I looked at the time. It was nearly 9:30. Charlie was going to kill me if I wasn't there by ten.

"Of course, your father will get worried" he agreed.

He motioned for the waitress to come over and asked for the check, not once noticing her attempts to flirt. I could hold back my smirk then. She glared at me when Edward reached for my hand again and looked at my face lovingly as we walked away from the resturant. I wondered why I liked the feeling of our hands molded together, making us almost like one, connecting us to one other.

On the way home Edward still kept hold of my hand, sometimes aimlessly doodling over it softly with his finger tips. Most of the time he would look upon my face, sometimes look at our folded hands, then now and then look out over the road with a smile on his face, deep in happy thoughts I assumed. My thoughts were happy too. Just through only being in his mere presence I felt as though I were in some beautiful dream, looking at his handsome face made me wonder how it was ever possible for someone to be so beautiful, so selfless and kind.

I felt so warm and fuzzy inside, why was that? I wondered maybe if this was how people felt as they fell in love. And I was falling in love with Edward, maybe even already in love with him, that much was obvious even to me.

EPOV

I pulled onto Bella's street, slowing the car down a little more than needed so that I could spend more time with my love. I was so lost in the feeling of her pleasent warmth around my hand, Imagine what she would feel like around your cock too my thoughts purred. I swallowed hard as certain images entered my mind which I quickly tried to dislodge from my mind. It would do no good to think things like that right now if I wanted to say goodnight without ravishing her.

All too soon we stopped outside Bella's house, I could hear through Cheif Swan's thoughts that he was waiting impatiently for her. It was then that I noticed it was 10:05 and that Bella was quite anxios to get inside soon rather than make her father angry at her. I reluctantly got out the car and in a flash I was opening Bella's door for her.

"I had a nice time tonight" I said softly

"Me too" she said shyly

We stood there for a moment, unable to break our gaze from each other's eyes. Just like today that magnetic pull between us begged and pleaded me to take her up in my arms, I knew she could feel it too. Her next actions shocked me.

Usually I was the one attack her lips first, but this time Bella started it. I wasn't complaining in the least. She grabbed me by my shirt collar and crashed her warm soft lips against my cold mouth. I didn't hesitate to respond. I wrapped my arms around her waist to bring our bodies closer and her hips brushed against my hard cock which caused us both to moan. She swpt her tongue along my bottom lip and I parted my lips for her to enter.

I could have stayed like this alnight, but then she attempted to pull back and I realized that she had to breath so complied.

I could feel her sweet breath fanning my face as she was left panting from the intensity of our kiss. We stared into each other's eyes as she tried to catch her breath. We were still holding her, not wanting to be apart from her body for a second. She still had her hands gripped on my collar too, she also seemed unwilling to move away. I smiled at that. My smile made her own smile spread across her face.

She was about to move her hands away, but before she could I placed my own on top of hers to stop her. I slowly slid them down to be repositioned on my shoulders and then placed my hands back on her hips.

I continued to gaze into her brown depths, then unable to stop myself I whispered

"I love you, Bella. I love you so much"

Her face warmed as she smiled and her eyes grew almost loving. She hesitantly leaned forward and placed a soft yet lingering kiss on my lips which I returned in the same manner. This kiss was unlike the others we had previously shared, this wasn't as desperate as the others, yet it was still just as beautiful. She drew back then with a soft smile on her lips. I was smiling too.

"Bye" she said softly.

"Bye" I replied in the same tone.

She turned around then and went back to the house, looking back at me one more time before she stepped inside. I stayed in place for a moment to hear if she had gone straight to her room or not. When I was assured that she had I drove back home to park the car. Of course Alice was screaming her thoughts about giving Bella a makeover in her excitement, I simply rolled my eyes and shook my head.

Once the car was parked in the garage I ran back to Bella's house, a thing I usually did everynight, but I had never been back in her room during the past months. I would normally sit outside in a tree nearby to make sure she was safe and also because of my own selfish desire to be close to her, but tonight I decided I would go in her room, I couldn't bear not to be able to watch her closely after today.

When I got to her house Bella was still awake, but her heartbeat and breathing were slowly calming so I knew she was close to sleeping. Within a few minutes she was clearly deeply asleep. Her room was just as I remembered it, and just like before, there she was asleep in the bed looking so beautiful that she would have took my breath away if that were ever possible. Her dark hair was spread all around her and her hands rested lightly on her stomach. I would have thought it impossible for a human to look so beautiful, but Bella never failed to surprise me. She could push any other vampire's beauty anyday.

You would have thought that my control would be better by now after kissing her more than once, but alas, it was in fact worse. Now that I had kissed her and held her closely to me, I wished for more. Knowing how poor my control was I decided to keep a safe distance between us by staying sat in the rocking chair at the corner of the room, happy and content enough to watch her sleep and listen to her dream, however what I heard in her dream was enough to make any vampire's heart going again. I certainly thought mine would.

"Edward, fuck me" she moaned

It was the most beautiful and erotic thing I had ever heard, and I was dying to hear it again. I was not disappointed.

"Mmmmhhh... Edward"

How I loved hearing her moan my name. I could smell her sweet smelling arousal, more tempting than any blood. My control was slipping away bit by bit at a very rapid pace as her moans and whimpers continued. I soon found that I had to clutch onto the armrests to keep myself in place, it was very hard. Every cell in my body was begging me to go over to her and make her dream reality, especially my hardened cock which was now strained against my pants.

"Harder... faster..."

I gripped harder onto the chair, nearly breaking them off in the process. I noticed then that one of her hands was now in her panties and pumping in and out of her while the other was fondling her breasts through the fabric of her shirt. It was too much too handle then.

I shot up from my seat and leaped out the window, desperate to get out. I took deep ragged breaths as I desperately tried to calm myself. Not minutes later, I heard Bella suddenly wake from her dream and she was heavily breathing because of it's effects, as I still was. Her scent was stronger now, I could only assume it was the scent of her orgasm. Oh god, the thought of her having an orgasm because of what she dreamt of me, it almost made me go back in her room and make her do it again, but I held back.

Eventually she calmed down and was soon asleep again. I was about to go back in her room to watch her, but then I noticed that the sun would soon be rising and it Bella would wake shortly after it. I reluctantly climbed down from the tree I had been in and ran back home. My thoughts were soon consumed in thoughts of when I would see Bella at school later today. But after what I had just recently seen, the image had left my control in a very poor state. Well, school is sure to be interesting today.

Phew! Long chapter!
