Chapter 22: Fan Girls, Electricity, Beaches and Annoying Maids – Part II.

Leah and I took a seat in the far corner of the table, and she started talking animatedly to Sky.

I placed a hand around Leah's shoulders and nested my nose on her silky hair, inhaling her tantalizing scent while looking around us.

I heard Xavier murmuring to his friend Jordan then, "That amazon beauty is definitely worth fighting for."

I saw Jordan nodding absentmindedly and closed my eyes while kissing Leah's head.

Yeah, this night was going to be hella fun!

Leah's POV:

This day couldn't have possibly gotten better, Mark and Tom were amazing and super attentive, and Sky and Tanya were really sweet and funny. I was still amazed at how identical they were; if it weren't for their different haircuts I wouldn't have been able to differentiate them.

"So Leah, tell us, where are you from?" The brunette named Vivian asked, sincere interest reflecting in her chocolate eyes. All the girls had gathered around me, and the guys were drinking and talking while standing in a circle.

I smiled and answered her. "I was born and raised in Washington, on the La Push Reservation. It's like, four hours away from Seattle."

"You were born in a reservation? How the hell did you meet Derek then?" Adriana asked with a look of pure disgust on her face.

"Can you refrain from asking such stupid questions Adriana? No one wants to hear them." Sky snarled at the fucking bimbo.

I could feel my temper rising and shivers running up and down my spine. "It's ok Sky, don't worry," I smiled at her and turned to Adriana, giving her the most menacing glare I could muster, "Yes, I was born in a reservation, and I'm damn proud about it! Derek's dad was from the same reservation and that's where his cousin lives, not that it's any of your fucking business."

The blonde bitch just stood there on the booth and stared at me, I could see her mouth twitching with what I was sure was a mean retort and I prayed to the spirits that I wouldn't phase here on the stop; How dare she insult me in such a way? There's nothing wrong about being from a reservation, and I'm damn proud of being Quileute.

"Please Adriana, refrain from saying anything else," Tanya spoke calmly but the message in her voice was loud and clear: back off.

"Whatever."

I smiled appreciatively at Tanya and she winked at me.

"That's a pretty necklace you have there, Leah," I grinned at Sky and my hand immediately found the necklace that Derek had given me after our trip to Seattle with Ness and Jake.

"Derek gave it to me on a trip to Seattle we made like two weeks ago."

"It's beautiful, you guys are so close, it's amazing to see you two so in love. I'm sure you guys have been together for a while now." Vivian commented.

"Thanks, but we haven't really; it's been three weeks since we have been together," I avoided telling them that those three weeks included meeting one another.

"Three weeks? Really? Wow, you look at each other like a married couple!"

I blushed a little and shrugged. "What can I say? When you know, you know."

Vivian smiled sadly and I could see her eyes flash quickly towards Sky and Tanya's brother Xavier. I raised an eyebrow at her and she just blushed and shook her head. Our silent conversation was stopped when a snort left Adriana's lips.

We both rolled our eyes at the same time and smiled at one another. Maybe this could be the start of a new friendship.

All of us –minus Adriana- continued talking and giggling while speaking about anything and everything. Tanya and Sky started and ended each other's sentences and made us laugh every single time. Vivian finally started smiling more and got out of her shell by the end of our third margarita. It felt so nice being like this, just like I feel with Dee, no wolves or vampires, just normal people having the most random conversations.

During our chat I started noticing things I'm sure none of them had. First, Vivian couldn't stop taking peeks at Xavier, especially when his loud laugh erupted from the guys' corner. Second; while Derek looked extremely at ease and happy, he snuck glances at me, and threw kisses from time to time in my direction, that just shows how he is the best imprint ever. But the most interesting thing were Xavier's friends, I could see them each sneak glimpses at one another, funny they couldn't catch themselves doing it at the same time. I now knew their secret, and I don't know why, I wanted to help.

Maybe it was the look on Oliver's face, his grey eyes looked dull and only shinned when Jordan laughed or smiled. And Jordan had this protective air around him; like an imprint, his shoulders were squared at level with Oliver's body, like a front that no one could trespass.

I have never in my life been in front of a gay couple, it might sound weird but in Forks and La Push you don't see that easily, and it's not like I went out much. But I think love doesn't have gender or age. I wanted to help, really help.

I felt strong hands wrap around my waist and Derek's ocean and cinnamon scent assaulted my senses. "Sorry ladies, I'm taking my girlfriend away for a while." Sky and Tanya winked at me and Vivian smiled dreamily at us.

I could see Adriana was still at the bar, I'm sure trying to trap some man like a little black widow spider. Mark and Tom came around and offered their hands to their respective girlfriends. An idea suddenly came to mind.

"Derek, why don't you dance with Vivian?" I heard Vivian take a sharp breath.

"Don't worry Leah, I'm comfortable sitting here, I don't dance." She stuttered a little and I smiled at her.

"Sure Vivian, come with me," Derek smiled and offered her his hand. I kissed his cheek and mumbled a 'thank you' in his ear.

Vivian was blushing scarlet under the lights of the club and nodded shyly at Derek while taking his hand.

When they went towards the dance floor I smiled at my accomplishment and looked around. Adrianna and Xavier were nowhere to be seen and Oliver and Jordan were sitting together on the second booth, glasses of whisky in both of their hands and gloom expressions to accompany them.

I stood up and walked towards them. "So, would one of you like to dance with me?" I smiled my most charming smile at them, and no reaction came. But Jordan moved.

"Sure beautiful, let's dance."

I could see a small frown on Oliver's face and the small glare he unconsciously threw my way, I just winked at him and grabbed Jordan's hand. I was taller than him on my pumps but he made up from the lack of height with his massive Emmett-like body.

We started dancing to an up-beat song and I was surprised how separated from me he was, which just proved my theory right. I could feel eyes on me and turned to see Derek looking at me, a frown on his handsome face.

I mouthed 'trust me' to him and saw him nod with a curious look on this face. He then proceeded to whisper something to Vivian, and she laughed loudly. I smiled at the thought of having such an amazing soul-mate and turned to Jordan again, I could see him taking peeks at Oliver once more.

"So, have you liked him for a long time now, or is it just recent?"

Jordan immediately looked alarmed and stopped moving. He looked at me directly and glared. "What the fuck are you talking about?"

I glared back and smirked, "You think I haven't noticed? You guys have been sneaking glances at one another all night."

"Oliver hasn't been looking at me," He mumbled.

"AHA! I knew it, you liked him!" I grinned at him.

Jordan looked instantly panicked, this green forest eyes shining in complete and utter horror. "Please don't tell anyone, I will never hear the end of it. I'm not gay, and this can't happen to me, I would be completely ruined! Oliver isn't even gay, I would know; we're best friends."

I scowled at him, "You obviously like him, and he obviously likes you too, problems is you're too worried about what people may think, and I'm pretty sure you have convinced him with your poor womanizer act."

"How do you know he likes me? How do you know he isn't gonna laugh at my face and never talk to me again if I make a move?" He looked completely anguished by the thought and I smiled sadly at him. I touched his cheek delicately and tried to convey my conviction.

"You will never know unless you give it a try, its better trying then eternally wondering 'what if'"

I felt a presence behind me and smiled smugly when I noticed Oliver wasn't in the booth.

I heard him clear his throat and speak loudly over the music. "Can I speak with Jordan for a sec?"

I smiled at Jordan's panicked face and patted his back while whispering in his ear, "Go get him tiger." He gulped and just nodded at Oliver.

Both of them went to what looked to be a terrace and disappeared behind the closed doors. I smiled and hoped that Jordan would listen to me, I was pretty confident in my little speech and the hand on the cheek was the perfect finish.

I felt Derek's arm wrap around me, "You cupid now?" I giggled and turned around to face him.

"You heard?" I asked and kissed his pouty lips several times.

"Yeah, I did, I knew there was something wrong with the way they were looking at one another, but my brain didn't seem to process more after you left the hotel in this dress." He moved me by my hip at the beat of the music, placing his other hand at the bottom of my dress. "I keep imagining what you have under this." He tugged a little at the ends and I gasped in his neck, fighting the urge to moan.

"You can," I said breathlessly, losing my words when he pressed me harder against his body, "You can stop imagining Der, 'cause there's nothing to actually imagine."

I heard him growl as he nipped my jaw. "You're lying," he said gruffly, "You wouldn't," I felt his hands press tightly against my dress, around my back and sides, "You would." He finished strained when he noticed I really wasn't wearing anything under. "Why would you do something like that to me?" He rasped and kissed me, hard.

I kissed him back just as hard, nipping at his bottom lip and granting him access to my mouth when his tongue ran over my upper lip. "The dress was too tight and it showed everything, even the thong I had planned on wearing." I reason while rubbing his neck. "It was nothing personal baby."

I laughed when Derek growled again and started dragging me towards our booth; before we got there he seemed to have better thought about it and started walking towards the bathrooms. I felt giddy with excitement at what we were about to do.

He quickly moved us against the sweaty bodies and maneuvered me behind him so no one would see me when he entered a private bathroom. I heard a little crack and then we were in.

"Did you just break a lock?" I gasped, astounded at his artfulness. He nodded sheepishly at me and shrugged.

"I wasn't gonna take you to a smelly bathroom, at least this one is clean and looks like it hasn't been used in a while."

I smirked at him and ran a hand down his shirt while tracing his jaw with my tongue, "Then I guess we will have to be quick before somebody comes."

By the time we had left the bathroom premises, I had a giant smile on my face and Derek had this smug look he got when he knew he had taken it to the next level.

"Wow, someone sure looks proud!" Tom boomed when we entered the private space. "What were you guys up to?"

"Something sure was up while they were away," Mark smirked and winked at me.

I laughed and walked towards the table, Oliver and Jordan were nowhere to be seen and Vivian, Adriana and Xavier were gone too. "Where are the guys?" I asked while Derek sat and positioned me on his lap, placing his chin on my shoulder.

"Oliver and Jordan left a while ago, said they had had something come up; Xavier had to take Adriana home since she was too trashed to differentiate a man from a woman; Vivian offered to help him." Mark supplied.

I smiled hoping Jordan had told Oliver everything. Who knows, maybe Vivian could get lucky too, though I doubted it since she looked too shy around him. And honestly, the guy looked like a typical jerk, which reminded me of Dee's brother.

"I'll call Dee and the girls tomorrow, I'm sure they are angry with me for not calling earlier," I told Derek and he nodded smiling and kissed my temple sweetly.

We danced and drank a few more drinks until it was four in the morning. When Sky started yawning, Mark immediately said 'bye' and took his girlfriend home. After that we decided to call it a night and arranged for us to meet at the beach in the club after lunch later today.

I cuddled to Derek's side when we finally reached the car and drifted off before we could even make it to his grandparents' house.

I woke up pressed against a hard warm and bare body. My naked body was pressed to Derek's side, him just wearing his boxers. I giggled when I remembered Der mumbling and grumbling about me not wearing anything when he carried me to the bedroom and started to carefully undress me.

"What's so funny? Do I have drool on my face?" Derek mumbled and turned around so he could bury his face in the crook of my neck. He inhaled deeply and sighed. "Morning babes."

I hummed happily and looked at the clock on the bedside table, "Afternoon baby, it's already one pm."

Derek grumbled and snuggled more deeply into me. I laughed and turned us around so I was on top of him. "Der, you have to wake up, we were going to the beach remember, besides, I wanted to tell your grandparents to come too, I'm guessing we are returning tomorrow?"

"You're right, we haven't spent much time with them, and I want to at least leave on Monday Lee, you ok with that?"

I smiled at this hopeful voice and nodded, "Of course Der, I've been having such an amazing time." I kissed his cheeks, his forehead, his nose and his chin. "You wanna take a bath?" I asked him while grinning cheekily. I knew that was gonna get him out of the bed.

"Damn right I wanna take a bath," He whooped and carried me hurriedly towards the bathroom.

When we finally left our premises, Der and I made out way downstairs to find his grandparents. They were having lunch and two plates were already waiting for us on the table. I smiled at them, "Good afternoon Leah, Derek." Linda smiled at us and nodded towards the empty seats.

"I'm assuming you guys had a great time last night?" Lucas commented and smiled at us too.

I nodded and sat myself when Derek pulled the chair out for me. "We did, Mark and Tom are very friendly and their girlfriends are amazing too."

"They are lovely girls, and Mark and Tom have been a constant presence in Derek's life. I'm happy you liked them." Linda smiled and continued eating.

We ate in a comfortable silence with snippets of comments and compliments on Linda's food. Maria had Saturdays free, thank god.

"You guys want to come to the beach with us? We wanted to spend more time with you guys before we leave on Monday," Derek mentioned.

"Of course Dery, Leah hasn't even gossiped about you yet." I could see Derek frown at the nickname but smiled at his grandmother.

"Perfect, we can head over to the club after lunch, you guys ok with that?" I asked.

"Yes, we'll just change and go darling." Linda answered and Lucas nodded.

We finished our meal and Derek and I offered to put everything away while they dressed. When all the plates where in the automatic dishwasher and the pans were cleaned and stored Derek turned me around and lifted me so I was seating on the kitchen counter.

"You look too sexy on those clothes," He complimented and trailed kisses against my neck and bare shoulders. I giggled and wrapped my legs around his waist, pressing him to me. "And those shoes, damn, you're trying to give me a heart attack."

I was wearing a short strapless cotton dress with turquoise and purple flowers on it, and lavender beach wedges. Under it, I was wearing a one-piece cherry red strapless bikini that I had to admit looked freaking sexy on me. (PICTURE OF OUTFIT/BANNER ON MY HOMEPAGE)

"I'm not trying to give you a heart attack babes, I just wanted to look pretty," I said innocently.

"You always look pretty Lee, always." His hands inched up and under my dress making me shiver in delight.

"Fuck, I want you again, you smell so fucking delicious." Derek cursed.

I snickered and kissed him passionately, "I would be worried if you didn't Der."

"Always, for Forever and Ever Lee," Derek rasped and started to pull the front of my dress down.

"For Forever and Ever Der."

Just when he was about to take the offending material off we heard steps coming down the stairs. "Damn."

I quickly got off the counter and arranged my dress and hair. "I can't believe we just did that in here!" I whispered frustrated at Derek.

He chuckled and wrapped a hand around my waist, "I tend to forget little details like that when you are concerned."

I sighed dramatically and we made our way towards the living room.

Linda and Lucas finished their way down the stairs just as we got there. "We're ready," Linda announced cheerfully.

"Great, let's go now then," Derek said and we made our way towards the front of the house and got in the massive SUV.

On our way to the club Derek and Lucas talked about his plans in WA and I talked with Linda in the backseat about my life back in La Push. She was excited about the amount of family I had and wanted to meet my mom and Seth as soon as possible. I smiled at that and promised to make a trip here with them and Seth's fiancée as soon as possible.

When we finally got there we made our way directly to the beach and settled ourselves in a giant navy beach bed, just a couple of feet away from the shore.

"It's a lovely day, beautiful really," I commented, enjoying the feel of the sun soaking up my skin.

"You're beautiful," Derek told me and kissed my cheek. He took off his green T-Shirt and laid two giant beach towels on the light sand. I admired his body and shivered a little, it was amazing how my body reacted to his.

"You gonna stay there ogling or actually come and sit here with your amazing boyfriend?" Derek teased, breaking me out of my induced Derek-coma.

I smiled at him and turned to see Linda and Lucas already making their way towards the sea, they looked so cute walking together hand in hand.

I took off my wedges and lifted my dress over my head, turning to look at an open mouthed Derek. "Fuck I'm a lucky bastard."

I laughed and settled in the towel next to him. He turned himself to his side so he was facing me and kissed my forehead torturously slow while playing with one of the bows that the bikini had. "It should be illegal for you to wear that bikini Lee."

"I know." I smirked and winked at him. I turned around and saw a group of people walking towards us. Focusing my eyes to see in the extreme sunlight I noticed it was Sky, Tanya, Mark, Tom and Vivian.

I smiled and waved them over. Derek lifted himself on this elbows making me appreciate his 'V' more perfectly. I'm the lucky one.

"Hey guys!" Tom said and helped me get up so I could properly say 'Hi'.

I hugged them all Derek did the same. "You look extremely hot in that bikini Leah!" Tanya said and twirled me around. I laughed and rolled my eyes at them.

Tanya and Sky were wearing the same strapless two-piece bikinis, but while Tanya's was a hot pink, Sky's was a light baby blue. Vivian was wearing a black and gold trikini that made her curvy figure look amazing.

"You guys look amazing too, though I vote for Vivian in the hotness department," I smirked.

Vivian blushed scarlet while Tanya and Sky started making catcalls. We all settled and on the towels in the sand and talked for a while, when Lucas and Linda joined us we all continued to talk and ordered some piña coladas.

Our conversation was stopped though when Tom gasped "No fucking way!" We all turned to see what had him so perplexed and everyone gasped simultaneously except Derek and me.

Walking towards us was Xavier followed by Jordan and Oliver –who were holding hands and wearing giant smiles on their faces.-

I heard myself making a happy noise in the back of my throat and immediately got up. Just when I did, two chests enveloped me and Oliver and Jordan kissed my cheeks. "Thanks you." They both whispered in my ear and I smiled at them happily.

When they finally released me, I sat myself in Derek's lap and he kissed my cheek, "Told you I had the most amazing girlfriend ever," He murmured in my ear.

Jordan and Oliver introduced themselves as boyfriend and boyfriend and received congratulations from everyone, even Xavier seemed happy for them, though he was undressing me with his eyes which made me uncomfortable and Derek overprotective.

Tom got up after a while and stretched, "So you guys wanna play volleyball?"

After two hours of non-stop volleyball matches, we concluded that we would never win fairly if the guys kept protecting all the girls against the dangerous volley ball. Derek was the only one that wasn't doing it, and I'm pretty sure that was because the Volley ball would die first before actually hurting me. When we decided to call it quits we went into the ocean, every couple dispersed themselves to have some alone time with each other, and I decided to stay with Vivian, 'cause I'm pretty sure Xavier wouldn't be that great of a companion.

We talked about Vivian's work; she was a graphic designer and owned her own studio. She owned a four year old chocolate Labrador called 'Tobby' and lived by herself in a condo in the same building as Xavier, which surprised me. No wonder she was crazy about him; sadly, he apparently didn't seem to pay her much attention.

Xavier stopped looking at me after a while –though I'm pretty sure Derek looking at him like he was going to drown him in the ocean was his reason, - and actually started talking. I could see why Vivian liked him; he was funny, intelligent and loved his sisters deeply. He talked about his carrier in Tennis and now that I thought about it, I was pretty sure I had seen him on the television a couple of times when Emmett was watching the US Open.

At the end of the evening, the sun was already settling and everyone came out of the water. It was weird but cute at the same time watching Jordan steal kisses from Oliver, which made him blush and tuck his head on Jordan's chest. They were perfect for one another, they had known everything about each other since they were little; they just never took that final step.

When the sun had finally settled, we picked up our stuff and Linda invited all of them to a BBQ tomorrow at her house, they all accepted and we said our goodbyes.

"You smell different babe," Derek commented while we changed into our pajamas after taking a shower together.

"You think so? Bad?" I asked his curiously.

"No, not bad," He made his way towards me and ran his nose against the column of my neck inhaling deeply, "More enticing, sensual, like, god, I hadn't noticed," He ran his tongue sensually up my neck and sucked my earlobe into his mouth. "You smell like bottled sex, lust, oranges and rum."

I could feel my skin start to heat up, sweat glistering my skin quickly. I felt like I had no air, my nipples puckered painfully hard and I had to clench my thighs from the weird feelings that were cursing my body. I felt myself sweating even more than before and started to get worried, my mind was getting hazy with lust and confusion.

Derek bit hard on my shoulder and I immediately moaned at the sensation, "Shit Leah, I'm so sorry!" I heard Derek panic and quickly opened my eyes. He had droplets of blood on his mouth and his eyes were two onyx orbs, they had never been that color, navy blue yes, but never black.

I suddenly felt a drop of something running through my shoulder and looked down to see Derek's teeth mark on my shoulders, the bite was already sealed but blood was still plastered on my skin. "What?" I tried to formulate words but nothing came out, suddenly, pleasure like no other ran through my body, making my knees buckle and my whole body to shiver uncontrollably while releasing a guttural moan.

Derek quickly fell to his knees and grabbed my face in his "Lee, Leah, did you just, just have an orgasm? Baby, babes what's wrong?"

Nothing made sense after that, I felt myself shiver once more and suddenly everything went black…
