I took Bella to bed a short while later, when my own eyes began drooping. I kept Bella tightly to my side all night, and when I woke up the next morning, I was thrilled that this was how I was going to spend the rest of my life. I loved, absolutely loved the thought of waking up to Bella every single day. It made the future seem not so grim after all. I smiled sleepily into her hair, shifting my legs against hers. I felt her lips press against my chest, then she nuzzled the same spot with her nose.
"Morning, Love." I whispered, kissing the top of her head.
"Hey," She murmured, flattening her cheek to my skin.
"What time do you have to be at work?" I asked, running my hands over her back.
"I don't." Bella yawned and rolled over to stretch. "We finalized the deal with Macy's on Friday. I'm officially on Edward-time for the next 4 days."
I pushed my hips into hers, "Good. I don't think I want to give you up today."
She sighed, wrapping her legs around me loosely. "Oh really?"
I pulled her leg up around my hip. "Really."
She smiled and gave a small laugh. "Guess you aren't hungover then?"
"No. I wasn't that bad." I didn't think so. I just really, really wanted to watch baseball. Weird, huh?
She kept smiling up at me, "So... my body's a lot less sore today. Thanks for taking care of me."
I kissed her, "Baby, I love you. What else would I do?"
"I know, but thank you anyway." She said, moving her hand to cup the back of my neck and scratching her fingers lazily through my hair.
"No problem, Love." I kissed her again, letting my lips linger over hers. "MTV or Vh1?"
"Vh1. Cold bath or lukewarm shower?"
"Shower. Going down on you or fucking you?"
"Fucking me." She pulled her bottom lip into her mouth and pushed her hips into mine. "Speaking of which... so when do you think you'll be okay with doing that again?"
I pulled back a little, and I immediately saw the bruise that ran across her abdomen. I let out a heavy sigh. "Soon." I kissed her forehead. "I'd like you back to your nice shade of pale."
She rolled her eyes, "But that could take days." she pouted, "I promise, I'm fine."
I nuzzled her nose with mine. "Baby, you got hit by a car."
"And you saved me and now all I have are scrapes and bruises." She looked at me pointedly. "Am I really going to have to beg you?"
I pushed her over onto her back and kissed my way to her stomach. I looked up at her and ran my fingers lightly over the spot. She winced slightly. "I don't like this."
"Don't like what?"
I ran my fingers over her skin again, "This."
She shivered a little under my touch. "It'll get better."
I kissed the spot lightly, "I know."
Her eyes fluttered shut as she let out a contented sigh. "Do it again. That felt good."
I leaned back in, sucking gently on her skin. "Like that?"
"Mhm..." She confirmed, then whimpered a little when I repeated the action. "God I've missed your mouth on me."
I laughed into her skin, moving lower. "not as much as I've missed yours."
"Less... talking. More... of that." She said in a sultry whisper, arching her lips up to meet my lips.
"I don't know," I murmured. I could feel the heat from her core as I stopped just above it. "I'm not sure you want this."
She laughed, "Edward I never figured you for a stupid man, but if you can't tell from where you're laying that I need you perhaps you need your head examined."
I smiled into her skin, then lifted my head to look up at her. "Okay, let's do that instead." I smirked up at her.
"You better be talking about the head of your penis and by examine, you mean buried inside me otherwise we're speaking completely different languages." She said with a knowing smirk.
I kissed my way back up her body, then hovered over her. "I didn't know you were bilingual."
She smiled at me and her fingers once again tangled themselves in my hair. "Duh Edward."
I leaned in to kiss her. "Condoms?"
Bella sighed in defeat. "We're out I think."
As much as I wanted to, I couldn't risk... it again. It wasn't fair to the both of us. I kissed her cheeks softly, "I'm sorry, love."
She looked to the side, then back at me. "Can't we get more? I mean, I refuse to go a second day without being able to sleep with my fiance."
I kissed her again, "Yes, love." I couldn't deny Bella anything.
She giggled and pulled me down agaisnt her small frame, wrapping me as tightly as she could in her arms. "Getting stung by a bee or bitten by a spider?"
"Stung. I hate spiders. The Nanny or Reba?"
"Reba. December 1st or November 15th?"
"Why?" I asked.
She shrugged, "Was thinking about a date for our wedding. Those two sounded good."
"The first then. I like that number better. I love you, Bella."
"Mmk. Love you too." She kissed me gently before rolling over to grab her cell off of the night stand. "Did you want me to see about getting tickets to the baseball game?"
I tugged her back to my chest, "Not now. Let's just sit a while more."
She dropped her phone to the ground, and came back over to me. "Okay." I lifted myslef over her and she smiled up at me lazily. "I love knowing this is forever, for real."
I leaned down to kiss her gently. "Of course, love. You've had me before I knew you."
"And how's that?" She asked, smiling against my lips.
I kissed her again, "Because you were meant for me."
Bella laughed quietly, "I love that you seemed so certain of us from the beginning."
"It's different with you," I whispered into her hair, "Everything is different with you. It all just fits. Neither one of us has made a concession and resented the other for it. That doesn't happen."
She looked up at me through a thick fringe of eye lashes. "What do you mean?"
I shook my head, looking away from her. "Bella, I'd give you whatever you wanted. No questions asked. And I would never regret it or second guess myself. I can't tell you how many times I'd regret doing something for... other people." I didn't want to say her name. I didn't really even want to think of her.
"You're lucky that I'm easy to please." she grinned, "Because all I want is you."
I leaned down to kiss her gently. "You have me."

A few hours later we had finally managed to get dressed and walk outside to Starbucks for some late-morning caffeine. We grabbed a couple of pastries with our coffees and headed back to the hotel room.
"Sometimes I feel like we're still hiding." I admitted as we plopped down on the sofa and I curled up next to him. He reached over and grabbed the remote resting it on his thigh.
"Why?" He asked, turning to look at me quizzically.
"Because we spend so much time away from civilization in our own bubble." I replied, sighing and smiling against him as I rested my head on his shoulder. "Oh!" I said, bolting upright and looking around for my purse. He looked at me quizzically and I laughed, digging my phone out of my bag. "My mom. I want to call her and tell her about us."
"Oh."
"Or... not." I said, my face falling a little. Was the engagement supposed to stay a secret from our parents?
"Wait, why not?" He asked, sounding confused.
"It just sounded like that wasn't okay with you."
He grinned, shaking his head. "It's okay with me. I was just saying oh."
I nodded and flipped open my phone. It suddenly dawned on me that I couldn't remember the last time I had talked to my mom. It rang twice before she picked up.
"Hello?" Her always-sweet sounding voice echoed on the line.
"Mom?"
I heard her take in a sharp breath in surprise. "Is that my little Bella? OH SWEETHEART! How are you?"
I laughed into the phone turning to look at Edward and smiling. "I'm great. How're you?"
"Fine. It's wonderful to hear your voice. What're you up to?"
I took a breath. "Actually I'm in New York right now. I just finished a project for work." I paused, biting my lip. "How's Phil?"
"He's doing great, sweetheart, I'll tell him you asked. Did your project go well?"
"It did. We actually finished earlier than expected." I took a breath grabbing Edward's hand. "Actually, I have bigger news than just my project for work. That's, uh, kinda why I'm calling." I stuttered out.
"What's going on, Honey?" She asked, her voice dropping and dripping with concern.
"Mom, um... I'm engaged." I said, unable to hide the smile that spread over my lips as I squeezed Edward's hand and he mimicked my expression.
She screamed so loudly I had to pull the phone away for a moment as her voice shrieked on the other end. "BELLA! WHY DIDN'T YOU CALL SOONER? WHO IS HE? DO I KNOW HIM?"
I laughed, putting the phone back to my ear, leaning back against Edward and sighing. "No mom, you don't know him. His name is Edward. And I didn't call because... well it just happened, kind of."
"Oh, Bella... sweetheart. I'm so happy for you. Is he cute?" She asked, laughing happily.
I grinned looking up at him. "Yeah mom he's really hot." I heard her laugh into the phone before it went silent. "Mom?" I asked after a beat of silence.
"Yeah, hunny. Sorry... how long did you say you'll be in New York?"
"I didn't, but we'll be here til Thursday."
"We'll? You mean he's there with you??" She asked excitedly. "Perfect! Phil starts a series against the Yankees on Friday. I'll just come up a few days earlier. How does dinner Wednesday work for you two?"
Shit. I wasn't necessarily ready for a meet n' greet with mom and Edward, but the more I thought about it the more it made me smile. "Um... lemme ask him." I covered the receiver with my hand.
"Hey, um quick really really forward question?" I asked him nervously.
"What's up, love?"
"Do you wanna have dinner with my mom on Wednesday?" I whispered.
He chuckled and leaned in to kiss me quickly. "Sure."
I smiled and kissed him again just for good measure before returning to my mom. "Yea mom we're good to go for Wednesday."
"Great! I can't wait to see you and meet him and see the ring! Have you told your father yet?" I felt my body stiffen and I coughed. "Uh, no. I haven't. And I haven't told Em yet either." Shit shit shit. I completely forgot that she still talked to my brother. "I'd appreciate it if you didn't say anything. I'd like to be the one to tell them."
"Mhm. Of course baby, I understand." I could practically feel her wink at me through the phone. "So what's the situation? Pregnant? Rushed into it?" She pushed as I heard her bite into something crunchy - a carrot perhaps?
I felt the blood drain from my face. "The latter." I sighed, "How'd you know?"
"For you to tell me before your brother or father, there had to be a reason you wanted to ease your way into telling the family." I let out a huff and ran my hand through my hair. "Yeah, I guess."
"Baby, are you happy?" She asked in a soothing tone. I nodded even though she couldn't see. "Yeah mom, I'm really happy."
"Then that's all that matters. Plus you're engaged, it's not like you ran off and got married without telling anyone." She said, laughing. No, but how freaked out would she be if she knew that had a cab not gotten in our way, we would have been?
We wrapped up the conversation soon after and I shut my phone, tossing it haphazardly onto my purse and turning to face Edward. "Well that went well."
"Yeah?"
"Mhm. She asked me if you knocked me up and that's why I hadn't told my dad." I said, laughing as I crawled into his lap.
His lips attached to my neck as he murmured, "Not yet." Before sucking softly on my skin.
I continued to chuckle as I molded against him. "We forgot to get condoms while we were out." I murmured against his temple, pressing a lingering kiss against it.
"I'll go out for them later. Let's take a nap." He suggested, rubbing my back soothingly.
"But we slept all night." I argued, pouting. "The sex is already dwindling and we haven't even said 'I do' yet."
He laughed, pressing his lips into my hair. "That just means I owe you an entire day in bed, love."
"Well, when does that start then?" I asked tersely, grinning against his lips.
"Mmmm, Tomorrow?"
I sat up straight, looking him square in the eye. "Wait, you mean we're not fucking at all today?"
"Baby, it can start at midnight if you want. I just want you to rest a little more." He said, looking at me wide eyed and pouting. "Please?"
I huffed and stood up. "Fine but then I'm going to need to actually wear pjs or I'll try raping you in my sleep." I sighed dramatically walking over towards the bedroom and pulling out a pair of pj shorts and a tshirt.
He jumped up grabbing my wrist and turning me towards him. "Baby, I love you. Do you want me to go get condoms now?"
I stripped down to just my underwear and looked at him, covering my breasts with my forearm. "Whatever you want."
He moved closer to me, moving my arms to my sides before kissing me slowly, showing that this whole not sleeping together thing might just be as hard for him as it was for me. "Will you nap while I'm gone?"
I made an 'x' over my heart with my free hand. "Promise."
He kissed me again, rubbing his nose against mine. "I'll be back soon."
I nodded and made my way to the bed and under the covers. I must have been more exhausted than I thought because I felt my eyes droop and my brain slow down before my head had even hit the pillow.
I woke up to Edward's, or who I at least hoped were Edward's, lips dragging across my collar bone. "Mmm Jared Leto..." I moaned softly, trying to fight back the giggles.
I felt his mouth pull back from my skin. "Seriously?"
My eyes opened and I smiled widely. "What?"
"You know what. And that's just mean." He said, rolling his eyes and smirking.
My legs wrapped around his torso pulling him closer. "You have condoms?"
"No, Baby. I just walked around the block and started sucking on your neck cause I wanna drink your blood." He sighed, puffing out a laugh. "Get with it." I laughed against him. "Well I dunno. You're still fully clothed. Maybe every store in New York ran out of condoms."
He pulled away, sitting up on his heels and smiling. "Bella, how creepy would it be if you woke up to a naked man sucking on your neck in the middle of the day?"
My eyes shot up to the ceiling and I thought about it for a split second. "If the naked man sucking my neck was you, not at all."
He moved to sit beside me on the bed, glancing down at me. "Well, I still think it'd be weird. But I guess that's just me."
"So if you woke up to me hovering over you naked and kissing you, you'd be creeped out?" I asked, raising an eyebrow.
His arms reached out for me and pulled me against him. "No, that'd be sexy as hell. Naked men are just... funny and awkward."
I laughed, rolling on top of him and grinding against his jeans. "Not you. You naked is just..." my voice trailed off as I nibbled against his neck.
"I love you. More than you know. Don't ever forget that, okay?" He said kissing me lazily.
"I won't." I sighed, rubbing my nose against his. "Plus, even if I did somehow forget, I'll have you beside me every day of forever to remind me, right?"
He sighed and nodded. "Right."
My lips pushed against his again, and I felt him sigh against me. I pulled up, looking down at him. "You okay?"
"You're here. I'm better than okay." He answered, brushing the hair out of my eyes and tucking it behind my ear.
I smiled, placing my hands on either side of his face and kissing him passionately as I rocked my hips back and forth against his. "I will always need you." I whispered as I pulled my lips from his, sucking in air we desperately needed.
He pushed his nose against mine rubbing against it. "I need you. That's all."
"Good." I sighed against him. I rolled out of his lap and wiggled out of my clothes. "But before we rip open the box of condoms can we nap a little more? My body's a little sore and I sleep better with your body wrapped around mine." I conceded.
"Told you." He said grinning smugly.
I laughed and rolled my eyes. "Yeah yea... just get naked already. This," I said motioning to his clothing, "is unacceptable if you're in bed with me."
He stood up, shaking his head and smiling. "One day you're gonna get tired of this, you know."
I watched him undress; my eyes roamed over his body, blatantly checking him out. "Tired of what?"
"Me being in bed naked with you." He said laughing as he caught my eye and I flushed from being caught ogling. Oh who cares, he was going to be my husband.
"Nope," I sighed, biting my lip as I gave him the twice over look and already feeling the warmth pool between my legs. "Never going to tire of it."
He cralwed back into bed pulling me tightly against him and sighing. "Someday. Like when we're old and my ass is wrinkly and I don't have abs."
"Nope, my tastes will change as we get older. When we're 60 I'll think guys with abs are gross and guys with a pudge and wrinkles are as hot as James Dean." I grinned, nuzzling my face into the curve of his neck. "You'll always be the hottest guy in the room no matter if we're 30 or 80."
"I doubt it, but as long as you think so, right?" He said letting out a slow exhale.
I laughed against his neck and nipped at it. "Exactly." I readjusted myself, wrapping my limbs around him possessively. I loved that he just let me sprawl out around him and didn't seem to mind in the least. His arms tightened around me, drawing me even closer. One of his hands laid flat against the middle of my back, while the other drifted down, cupping my ass. I smiled and let out a breath against him.
My lips moved against his neck lazily, and I felt him moan quietly; the vibrations rumbling through his throat just before I finally gave into sleep.

I got up after a little while, once I was sure Bella had fallen asleep. She slept like a rock, no matter where I was. It didn't make a difference. I pulled my boxers back on and went out into the living room to watch some TV and give Bella the room to spread out. It was about two hours later when I heard her stir.
"Edward...?" I heard her call, her voice still heavy with sleep.
"What's up, Baby?"
"You left." She said sadly, standing in front of me like a little kid.
I chuckled a little to myself. "I'm right here, love."
"I mean..." She rubbed her eyes and made her way over to the couch. "When I woke up. You weren't there." She plopped down next to me. "Not cool."
I tugged her over onto my chest and kissed her forehead. "How'd you sleep?"
"Fine but I started tossing around and wrestling with blankets a bit ago. I finally gave up. I blame you, for leaving."
I pushed my nose into her hair, "I didn't want to bother you, love. I didn't want to crowd you."
"Edward, I cling to you like a kid to a tire swing when we fall asleep, and you're worried about crowding me?"
I loved it when she said she needed me. "Yeah, kinda."
She sighed, and sunggled herself tighter to my chest. "I don't get why. You coulda just said you needed space. I would have moved."
I shook my head, "Bella, how does me saying that I wanted you to have space translate to me wanting space?"
"Because what would give you the impression that I wanted space? I cling to you like a monkey clings to... anything."
I shrugged. "I dunno, I just... don't want you to get annoyed with me, I guess." I said, mumbling a little.
She gave a small, tired laugh. "Edward, I want you... always. You should probably know that in case I hadn't made it obvious." She shook her head against my shoulder. "I hate waking up without you."
I sighed, and leaned my cheek on the top of her head. "Never again, love. I promise. As long as it's possible, I'll be there."
She through her legs over my waist possesivly. "Good. Now that that's cleared up, what are the chances your future wife can get fed before she pounces on you?"
I shook my head and kissed her gently. "Very good, love. What do you feel like?"
"Mmm..." She tought about it for a moment. "I dunno. What are you in the mood for?"
I shook my head. "I'm not really hungry. Whatever you want, love."
"We didn't eat today. You need sustenance so that you don't pass out when I fuck you six ways to Sunday later."
I laughed, rolling my eyes. "We ate today, silly goose."
"We did?" She pulled her eye brows together as she tried to remember. "All this napping has me confused." She leaned back and away from me, squinting. "Who are you again?"
I let out a heavy sigh, and raised an eye brow at her. "We went for coffee and had breakfast. And if you aren't sure who I am, maybe I should--"
"Remind me?" She aske with a grin.
"I was gonna say go, and pretend to be offended." I said, smirking down at her.
She shook her head and wrapped one arm around my neck. "I like my idea better." She murmured before kissing me.
"Mhm. What're we eating? Do you want me to order, or do you want to go down to the bar?"
"If we had breakfast, then I'm good. I just want you."
I shook my head, "Nice try love. I'm not going anywhere. You can have me whenever."
"Hmm... then I choose now." She flicked her eyes up to mine, watching me through her lashes. "Please?"
I pretended to think about it for a minute. "I dunno, Bella..."
She gave me a pretty little pout and bat her lashes at me. "Please? I don't think we've christened this couch since we arrived for the 2nd trip."
I laughed a little, "Oh really? I think you just want in my pants."
"Well look who's Captain Obvious all of a sudden." She smirked at me.
I fake yawned and stretched underneath her. "Hmmm, maybe love. I'm kinda tired."
Bella nodded and shift off of me, heading back to the bedroom. "Okay, you sleep. I'm gonna go out and relieve the tension then."
I laughed and shook my head. "Bella, I was kidding. If you aren't naked in my lap in two seconds, you'll really have to pay."
"Oh really?" She said, coming back into the room wearing one of my tee shirts.
I nodded, still smirking. "Yup."
"Hm." She stopped to think, "Well then I'd like to see what you've got because I don't believe you." She teased.
"I have... stuff."
She laughed disbelievingly and headed back to the bedroom. "Uh huh..."
"Fine, but your missing out." I said, shoving my hand into my boxers. "And I'm gonna stain the couch."
"That's okay, your hand still won't feel as good as being buried in me!" She tossed the tee shirt onto the sofa from around the corner.
I grinned, fisting my cock. "No, it doesn't. But you don't seem to be willing to help me, so..."
"Someone said they were tired. I was giving you some space." She laughed.
I pouted at her, "You're hurting my feelings."
"And you're teasing me. It's been more than 2 seconds Edward, and your threat has been defused." She informed me.
I shrugged, "Fine. Watch out, Baby."
"Mhm... right." She said, rolling her eyes amusedly at me.
I started moving my hand faster. Fuck. "Bella... seriously..."
Her eyes went wide once she realized what I was doing and she lunged at me. I pressed my mouth urgently to hers, and brought my free hand up to cup the back of her neck as her tongue swiped at my lips. I pulled it into my mouth gently and sucked on it, taking in as much of Bella as I could. I broke away breathlessly and reached for a condom. I slipped it on, despite her body nearly flush to mine. "Go for it, Baby." I whispered against her lips.
She smirked, and gave me a quick kiss before sinking down on my cock. We both groaned as I filled and stretched her because every time still felt like the first. She was still so tight and always so wet for me, it was amazing. Bella gave herself a second to adjust to my intrusion before she began bouncing up and down on my cock. She pulled her bottom lip into her mouth and her eyes stayed tightly shut as she moved. I let my hand fall to her hip and I began to guide her movements faster and faster as I thrust up into her.
Soon enough, I felt her walls start to grip my cock more tightly and I knew she was close. My hand slid up her body and I cupped her breast, kneading it carefully. "Bella... Baby... fuck, I need you to cum. Please, Baby... fucking cum all over my cock."
"Eh-- Edward... fuck.... fuck... Edward!" She moaned as she tossed her head back and came all over me. Her walls were trembling around my cock as I thrust into her twice more and came into the condom. She kept moving slowly over me, milking my cock and pulling everything out of me. Finally, she collapsed on my chest.
"I love you, Bella. Don't you ever forget it."
