THANKSGIVING IN USA
If I lay here
If I just lay here
Would you lay with me?
And just forget the world…Snow Patrols…chasing cars...
BELLA
"Hello Bella. I am so happy to meet you at last. You are so beautiful. You're very welcome." Esme said sincerely, holding me in a warm embrace.
"This is Carlisle, my husband. And you must be Rosalie…and you are Jasper…" Esme added this time. "It is very nice to know you all."
"Thank you Esme. Thank you Carlisle to have invited us all. I am so happy to be here and to finally meet you" I said smiling at them.
Esme was a truly magnificent woman, her features as beautiful as her children's and husband's. Her face was heart-shaped; her cooper caramel hair reminded me of Edward's hair. Her eyes were emerald-green; both mother and son had the same eyes.
She was small and slender. She was dressed casually as was her husband Carlisle.
Carlisle was a tall man. As tall as Edward. His hair was blond, graying at the temples. His eyes were deep blue. Alice and her father had the same eyes.
"Your house is…wow…magnificent."
"Well thank you honey. Make yourself at home. Come on boys. Get the luggage in the bedrooms. And as we are all adults here…There are enough rooms but if you want to share my kids' room…well it is up to you." Esme added this time, winking at us and with a huge smile on her face.
"I'll give you 60 minutes to unpack and get settled. A bottle of pink champagne is in the fridge, waiting to be drunk. Time to celebrate in good and due form…" Edward's mother said, still smiling.
The boys get the luggage and we all climbed upstairs. Emmett had to do several trips to get Rosalie's entire luggage, mumbling all the time…something like… Jesus-Christ… Did she move all her clothes from her condo? Fuck those suitcases are heavy as hell…no wonder she had to pay extra fees at the airport.
We all settled in our boyfriends', and or, girlfriend's bedrooms. Edward's bedroom was huge…as well as I guessed all the other rooms were. It was well-lit and clear. His room faced the south, with a wall-sized window. From the window, I could see the garden and the pond. There was a colossal bed in the central space. Just facing the bed was a wall completely covered with shelves full of CD's, books and trophies. In one of the corner there was a plasma screen T.V and an ultra sophisticated sound system. Edward had access to his personal bathroom. My God….This house was a piece of art in itself.
"Wow, Edward, this house is so beautiful…You know…it is so bright and clear…Wow!!!"
"You like it my love?" Edward asked me, kissing me on the nose.
"I love it…" never saw a house as beautiful as this one…Wow!!! I kept repeating.
Edward gently pushed me on the bed. He was on top of me, kissing me and brushing his fingers on my face. He sucked my bottom lip and slid his tongue in my mouth. My heart began to accelerate and I moaned in his mouth.
His fingers began to travel down, on my neck, on my collar bones and on my breasts.
"Jesus…I love you so much Bella." Je t'aime tellement."
"Je t'aime aussi." Impossible d'aimer quelqu'un comme je t'aime."
I love you too. Impossible to love someone as I love you.
His hands were under my dress now; his hot, warm fingers running on my skin.
"Jesus-Christ Bella…What the hell? You are fucking naked under that dress. Are you trying to kill me?" You were sitting next to me in the plane…fucking naked…under your dress."
"Yeah…well I never wear undergarments under that dress… It fits me as a second skin…so…"
"Fuck Bella…Holy Mary…please, wear that dress more often." You don't know what you are doing to me right now."
"I know what I do to you Edward…and my name is still Bella. I think you are a bit confused my love…there is nothing holy with me right now."
"Oh! You my little demon". He added, kissing me and cupping my tits.
Soon enough we were both naked; Edward's beautiful body pressed on mine. Skin to skin…breathing and panting. My fingers dug into his back's muscles and I snaked my legs around his waist…wanting to feel his erection on my burning spot.
He pulled his face to mine and kissed me with all the strength and passion he could put in a kiss.
"Oh…Jesus… Edward… I groaned loudly."
His tongue and mouth were on my nipples now…licking and sucking them so softly…It was so delicious, so tender and yet so painful. My clit was swelling and asking to be touched.
His fingers ran down on my chest…and on my belly…following the design of my tattoo and then on my pussy and in between my thighs. He pressed my clit…His thumb now rubbing my clit…soft…and… hard.
"Oh…Oh….Please Edward…Don't stop."
He began to move his thumb faster and he slipped two fingers in my entrance, stroking the inside of my walls…His mouth and tongue still brushing and sucking my nipples.
"You are so wet Bella…You are so wet…." Fuck…Come…come for me…"
Edward's thumb was putting more pressure on my love button. Waves of pleasure rushed through me. All my cells were on fire…hot flames licking me from the inside.
My orgasm ripped through me like a volcano…
"Ohhhhhhh….Edward….so…fucking…powerful."
I was euphoric. I was in paradise. I was in love.
"Oh…Edward…that was so good."
"But you….you Edward…you did not come…my turn to please you."
"No love…not now…I wanted to please you". Edward added in a soft voice. Just to see you, to have you here in my arms, to make you come…you don't know how happy I am.
And he looked at me with the intensity of his deep emerald eyes; his eyes saying that I was his everything.
We took a brief shower, began to unpack and get dressed. I chose a black tight fit pencil skirt and a blue short sleeves blouse. This time I put blue undergarments. Edward was looking at me, clearly loving my bra and panties. He was licking his bottom lip and staring at me.
"Fuck Isabella…I just want to see you naked again…I don't know how much I can endure…woman…this is almost unbearable."
"You are irresistible yourself. Get dressed my love. I do have my undergarments on but you are still naked." And Jesus-Christ…Your cock looks so inviting." And remember…your mom and dad are waiting for us. "C'mon…stop the teasing and put your clothes on." Your name is Edward…not Adam…and you are tempting as hell. I am gonna eat your forbidden fruit later."
Is that a promise"? Edward added, laughing this time.
"Sure as hell, it is…" Get dressed right now. I don't know if I can get a hold on myself. Stop tempting me. "
"Okay ma'am….Everything you want…Your commands …I follow"…he added, with a military salute.
Five minutes later there was a loud knock on the door; sure as hell this was Emmett.
"Hey fuckers…open that damn fucking door." Yep… this was Emmett.
"Get the fuck out of the bedroom Edward…and you too Bella…or I am opening the door and kick your asses out…Do you hear me?"
"Two minutes Emmett" Edward snapped. "Give us two fucking minutes…and don't open that fucking door."
"Okay Edward…I am waiting…two minutes….one hundred and twenty seconds…not more". Emmett added growling.
"Fucking asshole" Edward added, winking at me.
Edward chose a green shirt and black jeans….Jesus-Christ… He was so fucking gorgeous; the emerald in eyes greener and deeper than ever. This beautiful man was in love with me…Among all the girls who desired him…I was the one he chose and he loved. I was everything to him and he was everything to me.
Edward was putting his socks and shoes on when Emmett opened the door.
"I told you Edward… Two minutes…not more…not two minutes and five seconds."
"It smells sex here. You two should be ashamed." He added, laughing like a damn fucking fool; I blushed and Edward frowned at him.
"Shut up, bastard…Edward retorted back. None of your fucking business. I guess you didn't have time to lay your fingers on Rosalie…with all her luggage…Did she have time to unpack all her stuff?"
"Asshole…Mind your own business as well." Emmett answered, punching Edward on the shoulder.
"C'mon asshole….and open your damn window." Let fresh air fill this room."
"Get out of my room right now…If you don't like the smell…go downstairs…we are following you in a minute." Edward said.
"Yeah….You better come downstairs…enough fooling around you two". Emmett added.
We were out of the room one minute later. We went downstairs and Esme was waiting for us. As soon as we were in the dining room she gave us a glass of champagne.
Edward's parents were so nice. We talked a lot. They wanted to know everything about me. So I talked about my dad and my mom. They were so sorry when I told them about my mother's sickness…and sorrier when I told them about her death. I talked about my job and my life…as a child…as a teenager…as an adult.
Jasper and Rosalie talked about their lives too; beautiful, emotional moments….sad and happy events.
And The Cullen did as well… as children, as teenagers, as adults, as parents…and the love…the love they had for each others… so strong…so intense…so powerful.
I loved my new family. I loved Alice…nosey Alice. Emmett…so exuberant. Esme and Carlisle…so tender and charming. Jasper…so nice and caring. Rosalie…my dear Rosie…my best female friend in Laval and Edward…my man…my soul…my heart…my all.
Seven days of magic moments…seven days of pure bliss…seven days of happiness…almost perfect…almost…
Thanksgiving dinner was perfect. The food was exquisite, the wine divine and the dessert marvellous.
Esme was a great cook. The turkey was perfect in taste and tenderness; different from the one I cooked at thanksgiving in Canada.
I enjoyed my time so much. These people were great.
Soon after dinner it was time to address a few words to thank life.
Thanksgiving was the time to thank life for all that was given to us.
Esme and Carlisle thanked life for having those wonderful kids and their loved ones…and for the love they had for each other.
Jasper thanked life for having meeting Edward, and Alice…and all of us.
Emmett and Rosalie thanked life…for being together. It was so emotional seeing Emmett crying and saying how much he loved his parents and his brother and sister.
Edward thanked life for everything; His family, his friend…looking at Jasper and at me…because I was in his life.
"I've waited for her for such a long time. I love you Bella…more than anything in the world." I can't thank life or God enough…Thank you so much for being in my life. You know I love you but you don't know how much I love you."
"I love you too Edward…so, so much…" I couldn't live without you."
"I thank like because of the happiness that fills my heart right now. I love all of you…Esme, Carlisle, Emmett, Rosie, Jasper… and my dad Charlie…and you Edward… you…my love…my half…my soul…My all…Thank you…" I added, tears falling on my cheeks."
"Okay gang. It is supposed to be a happy time. It's time to open the presents. Let's go. It's time…it's time…it's time… Alice said in an excited voice.
Esme was the first to give the present to Carlisle. She gave him a beautiful Cartier watch.
Carlisle gave her a pair of earrings; lavender pearls and the matching necklace.
Jasper gave Alice a charm. She could add it to her bracelet; the letter 'J'…pure eighteen carats gold.
Emmett gave Rosalie a pair of diamonds earrings. She was all blushes and flushes.
And it was Edward's turn. He handed me three boxes. Jesus-Christ…He bought all the jewels I picked out at Tiffany and Co's; the earrings, the necklace and the ring.
Now it was my turn to be all kinds of shades. I was so embarrassed.
"For you my love…Every time I will look at you, you will wear one of these…Jewels for my jewel."
"Oh…Edward…This is too much….you shouldn't….I didn't buy as much as…"
He cut me in the mid-sentence.
"I have you my love. You are my gift. I don't need anything more." Just having you in my life…"
"The same for me love….You shouldn't have…"
"My pleasure darling…No gift is enough for you. You mean the world to me. You are the world to me.
It was our turn to give our presents. Alice handed her presents to Jasper. Then, Rosie gave Emmett his sweater and his t-shirt. And I gave my gifts to Edward.
Edward loved the clothes I bought for him…and the cologne too. I knew Abercrombie & Fitch was his favourite store and he was really pleased to have these shirts and t-shirts.
Time flew by fast; as time passed when we are enjoying every minute of it.
Emmett and Alice had organized everything. We went to the spa. We went shopping. We went hiking; the hiking part…I didn't like it all…walking in the woods…and climbing the mountain…tripping on the trees' roots…and on the rocks…not good for someone as uncoordinated as me. We went bowling; urghhh…fouls…fouls…and sometimes strikes…Not one time was I able to put the ten pins down. And Emmett was laughing all the time…fucking jerk.
We played hockey…worst night ever… That damn fucking Emmett had organized a hockey game with some of his friends and his family, Rosalie and Jasper…. and me on skates…I was almost all the time on the ice…not on my feet…no…on my ass…and he had invited Sidney Crosby and Mario Lemieux. The first one was a hell of a great player in the national hockey league and the other one was the owner of the team…Pittsburgh Penguins…What the fuck did he think???...The fucking bastard…
After the game, I was almost not able to walk; my muscles hurting and my ass on fire…and the fucking jerk was laughing even more than the night we played bowling.
"Do you want me to carry you Bella? ...You seem in pain…Do you need a massage? ...Or a wheelchair?" Emmett said to me after the game.
"Shut the fuck up Emmett…" One day….
"Oh…oh…Bella is not in a good mood….I am so afraid…" he added winking at me.
But I had my revenge. One night we decided to stay in the house, after a long shopping day. After the dinner we began to play a game…Girls against boys. The game was called 'Draw and Guess'. Each team had a set of cards. One at a time we had to pick out a card and draw the word, or the sentence that was written on the card. Our team mates had to guess what the drawing was. So we began to play…and I had a hell of a nice time.
Emmett was good in sport, but in arts, a big zero. He had absolutely no skills.
He had to draw a monkey. Jesus-Christ…It was not even close to a monkey…even the banana was not looking like a banana. His team was shouting every fucking damn word. Is it a cat??...Is it a dog? ...What's that?? Is it a flower? ...and Emmett was gesticulating like a fucking damn fool.
I was almost rolling on the floor with laughter. Edward was not better. His penguin looked like everything except a fucking damn penguin.
Jasper and Carlisle were better. Jasper was really good. Every time it was his turn to draw, his team mates guessed right.
We led the game. All the girls were pretty good at illustrating the words.
Then we had to draw sentences.
Emmett had to draw 'the hen lays an egg'. My God, I almost peed on the floor.
None of the boys were able to guess his drawing. The hen had four legs and feet… and something on its head that looked like a tail…and the egg looked like a pebble… or a stone.
And he was jumping around the place like he was on fire.
Then Edward said…"What the fuck are you drawing? ...Is it a rabbit??...It must be….you are jumping like a rabbit.
Then Emmett threw the chalk to Edward's face.
"It is not a rabbit fucking idiot…It is a hen."
"A hen…Jesus-Christ…Does it look like a hen to you? Edward said to Jasper and Carlisle."- A hen with four legs and feet-. And what is that fucking thing on the supposedly hen's head? …It looks like a tail."
"It's not a tail you fucking asshole…It's a crest."
"Ha! Ha! ....a crest…and what is that thing under the supposedly hen? …Don't tell me this is an egg…" Edward retorted to Emmett, now bursting in laughter.
"Yes…it is a fucking damn egg". "Anyway this is a stupid game. Let's play monopoly."
"What Emmett…Are you in a bad mood? You don't like to lose." I said pulling my tongue to him. "Do you need a massage? You seem a bit stressed…"
"Hey girls we won…give me a high five. Emmett…loser….I added laughing and rolling my eyes." Look at you…You are so funny."
"Ha! Ha! You want funny, Bella…I'll give you funny."
Emmett began to tickle me. Rosalie jumped on his back. Edward was tugging his brother's arm. Alice was trying to make him fall and Jasper was tickling Alice. We were all on the floor now, squabbling with each others like kids. Esme and Carlisle were laughing. It was a hell of a nice night. A night to remember.
Then there was that night at the Altar bar.
It was Friday night. Emmett was singing at the bar that night.
I put on a low waist band blue pair of jeans, a long blue tight fit sweater and a black leather belt around my waist. I slipped on a pair of high heels dark blue Prada stilettos. I fixed my pair of blue sapphire earrings and the necklace Edward had given me at Thanksgiving. My ring never left my finger.
Edward put on a blue shirt…one of the shirt I bought for him at Abercrombie&Fitch, a pair of black jeans and his Doc Marten combats boots…Sexy as hell as usual…He didn't shave. I loved him when he had that three days scruffy beard; shaved or not he was a sex god.
The Altar bar was in Pittsburgh. Carlisle handed his black Mercedes Guardian SUV's key to Edward. My God this family had taste for expensive and fast cars. Emmett and Rosalie were already gone to the bar. Emmett had to practice with his band before tonight's show.
At seven thirty, we were at the Altar bar. The place was very crowded.
We chose a table not very far from the bar. The bartender came to our table and asked us what we would like to drink. I took a Purple Rain and Edward took a Corona. Alice, Jasper and Rosalie ordered beer too.
I loved the place. It was huge and beautiful. The outside facade was like a church. The inside was magnificent. The bar was on the left with huge flat screens on the wall. Round tables were in the middle and there was a big stage at the far end of the room. But the thing that most impressed me was the beautiful monumental glassed- steel staircase that led to the second floor.
Emmett and his band were already on the stage entertaining the crowd. The music was very good. People were singing along with the band. Later on there would be Karaoke. I was not sure if I would have the guts to sing…Well may be…I once sang in a choir and I had…I think a pretty voice.
We drank, sang and danced. We had a hell of a great time…almost all the night.
Emmett announced that it was now time for Karaoke. Many people went on the stage; some had very nice voice…others…well it was really out of tune. Alice was one of them…total discordance…but it was really hilarious and Alice was not embarrassed at all.
Edward famous Cullen went on the stage.
The song was 'Pour some sugar on me' by Def Leppard.
He began to sing. People were screaming and applauding.
Step inside, walk this way
You and me babe, hey, hey
Love is like a bomb, baby, c'mon get it on
Living like a lover with a radar phone
Looking like a tramp, like a video vamp
Demolition woman, can I be your man?
Razzle and a dazzle and a flash in the light
Television lover, baby, go all night
Sometime, anytime, sugar me sweet
Little miss ah innocent sugar me, yeah
You got the peaches, I got the cream
Sweet to taste, saccharine
Cause I'm hot, say what, sticky sweet
From my head, my head, to my feet
Do you take sugar? One lump or two?
Take a bottle, shake it up
Break the bubble, break it up
Pour some sugar on me
Ooh, in the name of love
Pour some sugar on me
C'mon fire me up
Pour your sugar on me
Oh, I can't get enough
Pour some sugar on me
Oh, in the name of love
Pour some sugar on me
Get it, come on get it
Pour your sugar on me
Ooh…
Pour some sugar on me
Yeah! Sugar me!
All the time Edward was looking at me. His eyes burning with this desire…and mine were burning too.
Edward came back to our table. He kissed me and told me that he loved me. Our kiss was soon interrupted by my dear almost brother in law and friend….Emmett.
"I would like to introduce you to Isabella Swan…My brother's girlfriend. It is her time to sing. C'mon Bella. Leave my brother alone. Move your ass and come on the stage…"
Damn fucker…He didn't ask anybody. Those who were singing were willing to go…I was the only one he forced to go.
I had no choice. Some people were standing up on the bar and on the tables, screaming my name.
Bella! ...Bella! ... Bella…! ....They were screaming, whistling and applauding.
The song I chose was one of Céline Dion…'A song for you'
I couldn't live; I couldn't live without your love
For one kiss, well, I'd give everything up
There's no words that can describe
What I feel deep inside so I let this song say it all
Then I'll hope you'll understand
Once you'll listen till the end
Heard the music in my head
So before I could forget
I start singing, yeah I was singing
This sing for you, just made up the words
Na…na… ooh…yeah…
My heart was the melody
So I can sing this song for you
Then there were more whistling and applauding…and Edward was still looking at me; surprised and with a huge smile on his face.
I went back to the table. He sat me on his lap and kissed me again.
"Jesus Bella…love…what a nice voice you have…the sweetest, melodious sound I ever heard." Your voice shimmered like a bell… so beautiful…"
"I think you are a little biased love. I know I have a nice voice…but…nothing compared to your voice."
"Oh…love…you don't see yourself clearly hun…It was absolutely magnificent."
Alice and Rosie congratulated me.
"What a beautiful song you chose…and the way you sang it…wow!! Bella…I didn't know you had such an amazing voice." Alice said to me.
"Yep….Bella…It was wonderful and so emotional…" Rosie added.
"Well thank you girls. I love singing…happy that you enjoyed my performance…" I answered in a soft voice, my face quite red.
"Do you want another drink? Edward asked… a refill…?
"Yep, amour. My mouth is a bit dry…and bring me a bottle of Evian, please baby.
"Okay my love."
Edward went to the bar. After fifteen minutes, he wasn't back.
I stood up and went to see what was taking him so long. And I didn't like what I saw at all.
The bar tender…a long black hair woman was standing very close to him. Her chest pressed against his arm. Her fingers were running in his hair and her mouth was so close to his ear. What the fuck was she doing? And why didn't he move?
I moved close to Edward and asked him in a very angry voice.
"Hey…What the hell is going on here…? And who are you?" I was now yelling at the bartender.
"I am Kate" the woman answered…I work here."
"Well, stop touching Edward…Don't touch him…" and back off…What the fuck?"
I was furious…jealousy running into my veins.
"Follow me outside Edward…like right now…" I almost snapped at him.
I didn't wait for him but I knew he was behind me.
As soon as we were outside, I began to talk.
"What the fuck Edward? ...You know her…obviously you do…Who is she to you? I don't like it…I don't like it at all…"
"Listen to me Bella…Kate is just a friend…she is just a friend…"
"Well…seems to me that she is a bit more…What the hell was she telling you? ...and why were her fingers in your hair? … I have friends and I don't run my fingers in their hair…and she was so close to you…her breasts touching your arm…Bloody hell…" What is she to you? ...Did you sleep with her? Tell me…you looked more like lovers than just mere friends…." I retorted back, yelling this time.
Edward was clearly embarrassed and he was still silent.
"I am waiting for a fucking damn explanation…Talk to me Edward or as sure as my name is Isabella Swan, I am leaving this place right now."
"Listen please Bella…Listen…Kate is a special friend. Yes…I've slept with her, a few times…but I don't love her…I've never loved her…You are the only one for me…please Bella…please…Don't leave me Bella…I should have told you about her…I told you everything about my past…I just forgot about Kate…Believe me love…she is just a friend…I am so sorry."
"What was she telling you?"
"She was just telling me that she was glad to see me and that she was happy for me because I was finally in love and that you were beautiful."
It was my time to be embarrassed; embarrassed and still a bit furious.
"Okay…but it was absolutely not fucking right for her to touch you…I know you had a lot of girls in your life Edward…but knowing it and seeing one who slept with you…direct in my face…Jesus-Christ…How am I supposed to react?
"I know Bella…I know…You know when I saw you with Tyler at La Santa Fé…the way he was holding you…I felt the same…" I was so angry and so much in pain…and so fucking jealous…I am sorry."
"Okay Edward…but hear me out…I know you have that past…and I want to forget all about your past involving your sex life…and as long as your past doesn't interfere with our present and our future…I'll deal with that…but never, ever let a girl act that way with you…I won't bear it…Am I making myself clear?"
"Yes my love…I am so sorry…Do you want to go?"
"No…We had fun before that incident…I don't want to ruin the night and I want to talk to your friend…I added, emphasizing the word friend.
We walked back to the bar. I went directly to see Kate.
"Hey…Can I talk to you for a minute? ...Edward, please I want a drink…and go back to the table. I want to be alone with Kate."
He did as I asked. The tone of my voice didn't give him any choice…Nobody was going to fool around with my boyfriend.
As soon as Edward was away, I began to talk.
"Kate…I just want you to know that Edward told me everything about you and him."
"His past belonged to him…His present belongs to me…and I didn't appreciate the way you were behaving with him…So keep your fucking hands away from my man…He is not single anymore."
"I am sorry Bella…I didn't think…He is important to me…I don't love him…he is just a special friend…Please accept my apologies."
"Okay…but from now on…he is not a special friend…whatever the word special means to you…he is just a friend…Do I make myself clear?...Now, if you want to excuse me…My boyfriend is waiting for me…I am here to have fun and I intend to do so…" and I left without waiting for any kind of response.
I forgot about Kate. Edward repeating me how much he loved me…how important I was… I knew he loved me. His whole body was expressing that love. His eyes so green and so dark…His mouth so hot on mine…His warm fingers touching my face. We were again in our own little universe…just him and me.
We got back to Esme's and Carlisle's house in the wee hours of the morning; no Kate…no Tyler…just Edward and I. We forgot about Alice and Jasper who were sitting on the back seat…Just the two of us… Happy and in love…Forever…
