I DO NOT OWN TWILIGHT OR THE CHARACTERS.
A/N AT END.
BPOV
It was the longest three weeks, I think I have ever experienced, and was not looking forward to when it would be even longer without seeing Edward. He and Emmett came to Bloomington the weekend we moved and I didn't expect it to be as hard as it was to say goodbye to him. It wasn't only difficult for me to say goodbye but for Rose, as well. For a week we moped around and after kicking our asses into gear, Alice finally got us to leave the house and have a girl's night. It was fun but in the end Rose and I just got drunk and called our guys begging them to get us. Of course, it didn't work and they told us it wouldn't be long before we saw them again.
I had a Friday morning class but once it let out, Rose and I were high-tailing it back home. It was Labor Day weekend and that meant that the greatest thing to happen to Plymouth was happening…the Blueberry Festival. Yeah, it was a huge deal and it wasn't just a simple festival. It was the second biggest festival in the state of Indiana, the biggest being the State Fair. So, see, it was huge and I couldn't wait to get my hands on some of the greatest festival food ever. Not only that, it was alumni night at the high school football game tonight and I hadn't been to a game since I was in high school, so we all decided that we would be in attendance to "flaunt what we have," as Alice put it. Basically, alumni night was just a big social event that the town flocked to hoping to see if anyone dropped out of college, became fifty pounds heavier, or did or was knocked up. I'm not saying, I wasn't curious to see what some of my old classmates had done with their lives so far but I probably could have just found out from my Dad. He knew all the gossip in town anyway.
I swear the last fifteen minutes of a Friday class, really last an hour. The clock just plays a mind-fuckery game as you stare at it. I blew out a huff and tapped the end of my pen on my desk, wishing I could just bolt from the class but it wasn't going to happen. I probably could have snuck out if I was sitting in the back but of course, I was being a good student and sat in the front row of the large class.
"Well, since I keep hearing Miss Swan huff and puff about the structure of protein, I will be a nice guy and let you all out of class early, hoping I can get more attention next week. Have a good weekend and please be safe." Professor Hawes dismissed the class and I sat there stunned that he just called me out in front of a hundred plus students. "I thought you were impatiently ready for this class to be over, Miss Swan? Was I mistaken by all the noise you were making during lecture today?"
"I'm sorry Professor Hawes but yes, I'm definitely ready to get out of here." I said, gathering my things into my bag.
He chuckled. "You have big plans this evening? It's just Labor Day weekend, nothing much too really celebrate."
"Yea, well, I'm not sticking around here this weekend. It's been three weeks since I've seen my boyfriend and I'm going home for the big festival that happens during Labor Day weekend." I threw my bag over my shoulder and smiled at my professor.
"Oh, well your boyfriend doesn't go to school here? I hope you have a good weekend and come to class next week without looking so miserable."
"No, he goes to school at Notre Dame but thank you and I promise next week you will have my undivided attention. Have a good weekend yourself, Professor." He smiled and waved goodbye to me.
I looked at my phone and noticed that I actually ended up staying an extra ten minutes after class is regularly scheduled. I huffed in annoyance and rushed to the library parking lot where Rose should have been waiting. She got out of class at ten this morning, was picking up our bags for the weekend from our house, and then meeting to pick me up so we could drive the three hours back home. Everyone else, being lucky bastards that they are, didn't have Friday classes and had already left back home yesterday. It was just Rose and I, who ironically, didn't have our boyfriends in the same town that had to wait around to leave.
I rounded the corner of the library and saw Rose filing her nails, sitting on the small brick wall behind her car, and she looked up. "It's about damn time. Shit, Bella, what took so fucking long?" She stood up and walked to the driver's side and slipped in. I tossed my bag in the back, climbed into the passenger seat, and buckled up.
"Sorry, my Professor started talking to me." She put the car in gear and headed home. I told her what happened and she laughed, saying we really needed to get ourselves use to the boys not being around because she was even on a short fuse today and was doing the exact same things I was, until some "bitch" glared at her. Rose apparently told her to fuck off and mind her own business. I didn't doubt it in the least but we both couldn't get home fast enough.
* * *
We didn't even discuss where we were going first thing when we got into town because it was just assumed we were going to the Cullen's. I asked Rose if we should feel bad since we weren't going to see our parents first. She thought about it for a minute and took out her phone and called her Mom. Luckily, her parents had plans and were out and about. I called my Dad and not sure if I would be that lucky. I felt bad for even feeling that way but I missed Edward, so much. The phone rang forever before he finally picked it up out of breath.
"Hello?" He said and I heard a little noise in the background.
"Hey, Dad. Are you busy or something?" I asked and he coughed.
"Uh, no, not really. I was downstairs and ran up to my room to grab the phone." He said still a little short of breath.
"Well, maybe you need to get a little more in shape if running up a few steps got you all out of breath." I laughed and he grumbled about something. I heard movement in the background again. "Why did you need to run up the stairs, anyway? There is a phone in the kitchen you could have answered." I had called the house phone out of habit since he only used his cell phone for work most of the time.
"Uh, well…anyway, it doesn't matter. What are you up to baby girl?" He asked, quickly changing the subject.
"Oh, well Rose and I are about thirty minutes away and I didn't know if you had to work tonight or had plans. I, uh, I wanted to see Edward…" He laughed.
"Already making me the number two guy in your life, huh? That's okay, baby girl. I do have something I need to take care of and work out for a little while longer. So, I wouldn't be too much company at the moment and I assume you are going to alumni night at the game and I'll be on duty by then anyway. So, go ahead and go on over to the Cullen's. It's fine. I'll see you later. Love you." I was getting ready to say ok but I heard him hang up. I looked at the phone in confusion and shook my head, not really knowing what happened.
"Are you okay?" Rose asked and I just shrugged my shoulders.
"I guess but that conversation was really weird." I said and pulled up a new text message screen. I quickly typed out a message to Edward.
Hey, we are almost home. I can't wait to see you. –B
Not even a minute later he replied.
I know. I missed you so much. My parents are home, so we are going to have to socialize for a while. –E
I laughed and replied.
I don't mind one bit. I miss them too. Plus, we have the whole night. My Dad is working and doesn't expect to see me until tomorrow really. –B
Oh, yeah? I get to have you all night? I think that can be arranged. See you a while. –E
It has to be arranged, huh? Well, I can save you the trouble and just go to my house. –B
I don't think so! I will see you in 15 minutes, either here or at your house.-E
Alright, I will be at your house in 14 minutes. –B
That's what I thought. –E
I tossed my phone into the cup holder and tapped my fingers along the side of the door.
"God, I can't wait to get Emmett in that room of his!" Rose shouted abruptly and I giggled.
"Yeah, I know what you mean. Well, with Edward anyway but Esme and Carlisle are home for the time being, so we are going to have to put our horniness on the back burner for now." Rose groaned and we hit the outskirts of town.
"I love them in all but, shit, three weeks that we haven't seen our men!"
"I know but I miss seeing them too." I shrugged.
"I agree. I'm excited to see them too."
Five minutes later we pulled into the Cullen's driveway and spotted Emmett swinging the door open forcefully. Rose parked and shut the engine off while Emmett pulled her out of the car, kissing her passionately. I frowned because I had yet to see Edward come out of the house. Did he not miss me as much as I missed him? I opened my door, stepping out when I saw Edward fumbling around with his pants, trying to hurry out the door. I smiled, as we met eyes, and walked towards him. He got his belt buckled and rushed out to me, pulled me into his arms. I wrapped my arms around him and looking into his loving eyes. He leaned down, meeting my lips, and quickly deepened the kiss. Our tongues mingling together, the soft moans into each other's mouth, and the taste of his sweetness making my body promptly respond. I felt his hands in my hair, just as I was bringing my hands to feel the softness of his unruly hair. We pulled away from each other after a bit and smiled widely.
"I missed you so fucking much, Bella." Edward said and placed his lips against mine again. I smiled against his mouth and hugged him tighter.
"I missed you, too." I sighed and glanced to the doorway where Esme and Carlisle were standing. I smiled and waved to them. "Hello, Esme and Carlisle."
We all said our hellos and given hugs. We hung out for a while and Carlisle being Carlisle asked about everything we were leaning and how our classes were going. He was genuinely interested in everything we had to say. We decided to grab a bite to eat at Pizza Hut before the game, since it would be too packed afterwards and really, that was okay to me because I was definitely looking forward to getting Edward into bed. I was beginning to think I was turning into a guy for how much I was thinking about sex.
Rose and Emmett took Rose's car and Edward and I drove with his parents. It wasn't necessary for all of us to take separate vehicles since we were going to the same place and had the same plans for the night. That's one good thing about having a large vehicle; you can fit a lot of people and not worry about driving a bunch of different cars. We pulled into Pizza Hut and parked. It took a little while to get through all the festival traffic and Edward couldn't believe something this big was happening in our small town. I laughed and we went inside the restaurant.
We were seated promptly and had our food ordered. Unfortunately, we were not seated in Tara's section but she visited with us a few minutes. She said we would see her Sunday at Jacob's. We always had a party at Jacob's after the fireworks in the park, just like a regular summer night. We all ate and talked over dinner, then head out to the game. After, paying for our tickets and walking inside the gates, there was a table set out for the alumni to take a PHS name tag to write our name and year we graduated. I was putting on my name tag and didn't even realize it earlier, but both Rose and I were wearing crimson red, one of our school colors. We laughed at the same time, noticing the same thing and we high fived. I looked over at the Cullen's and they looked like we lost our minds. I noticed that Esme and Carlisle were wearing red shirts and Emmett and Edward were wearing white button downs. Rose and I laughed again and explained to them why we were laughing. They found it amusing since they didn't even plan that out. Then all of a sudden we heard the squealing of none other than Alice.
"Oh, I missed you guys." She ran over and hugged, Esme and Carlisle, then Emmett and Edward. Alice had Jasper saving seats for all of us and we all followed behind her as we made our way to the bleachers. We passed a lot of our old classmates and had brief greetings but nobody asking too many questions. It was going smoothly until we reached our seats and I heard the nasally, bitchy voice. I looked to my right and sitting in the row in front of us was Tanya.
"Well, well, well. If it isn't PHS's one and only Swan." She looked at me and smirked. I was holding onto Edward's hand and I felt him squeeze it slightly.
"Well, if it isn't PHS's one and only bitch." I sneered and looked to Edward. He had a slight panic to his face and then I heard her speak again.
"Oh, what are you doing here, Edward? I haven't seen you in a year or so. How are you doing?" She knew him and was blatantly flirting. I shouldn't have been surprised, she was always a whore.
Then of course, it fucking dawned on me, the conversation where Edward and I talked about our past relationships. He said, "Then there was Tanya. She, I knew was a whore, but Kristen and I had just broken up, so I let her give me blow jobs, no actual sex. That lasted until a year ago." I groaned but was not going to make a big deal about it right now and Edward and I would talk about it later.
"Uh, hi, Tanya. I'm here with Bella." Edward spluttered.
"Bella? Why?" She asked with a disgusted face. It was always looked fucking disgusting but that was beside the point.
"Oh, fuck off, Tanya. I'm his girlfriend, so stay the fuck away and mind your own damn business." I said aggravated and moved to our seats and as far away from her as possible. Rose said she would sit behind Tanya to make sure she wouldn't even so much as look our way and I thanked her because I was in no mood to have my weekend with Edward be ruined because of that bitch. Edward sat beside me and intertwined our fingers together. He leaned over, placing a kiss on my cheek, and whispered in my ear.
"Bella, do you want to leave and go talk about this? You know I love you, right?" He asked and placed a kiss below my ear. I closed my eyes and let him kiss me once more before I answered him.
"No. Let's watch the game and when we get back to your house we will talk. I'm not mad at you and yes, I do know you love me. I love you, too." I smiled, leaning into his side and he wrapped his around my waist, pulling me closer to him.
Things relaxed greatly and the game ended. The Rockies won by a touchdown and we all shuffled out to the cars. As we were walking I noticed my Dad standing by his cruiser talking to a woman. I didn't want to walk up and over here anything that I shouldn't in case it was police business but I didn't want to shout and be rude for interrupting. I decided to just call out to him.
"Dad?" I said and he quickly said something to the woman and she quickly walked off. He turned to me and smiled.
"Baby girl." He opened his arms. I let go of Edward's hand and walk into his embrace.
"Hey, Dad." He kissed the top of my head and let go of me. Edward walked to my side and took back hold of my hand.
"Good evening, Charlie." Edward said and shook my Dad's hand. Esme and Carlisle said hello.
"Carlisle, if you get tired of my girl, just kick her out." My Dad joked and everyone laughed.
"Nonsense. She is more than welcome to stay at the house. However, I could send of the boys your way when I get tired of them." Carlisle joked back.
"So, I'll see you tomorrow, baby girl?" My Dad asked and I nodded.
"Wait, aren't you guys coming to the game with us?" Edward asked. I looked at him confused because I had no idea what he was talking about.
"The game?" I asked.
"Yea, the Notre Dame game. Did I not tell you about it? I swear I could have." Edward pinched the bridge of his nose and closed his eyes. I knew he was trying to think back to when we had that conversation but he would never recall it because it never happened.
"No, you didn't mention it but don't get irritated about it. Did you want to go Dad?" I asked and I swear I haven't seen him light up that brightly in a long time.
"Yeah, if that's what you want to do. Funnel cakes will still be waiting for us when we get back into town." Dad said.
"Okay. So there's your answer, Edward. What time does he need to be ready?" I asked Edward.
"We can pick you up around nine, do a little tailgating, and the game starts at one."
"I'll be ready then. See you kiddos later. I, uh, got some things I need to take care of." My Dad stammered, giving me a quick hug, and getting in his car.
"That guy has been acting weird, I tell ya. Even on the phone earlier, it was just odd. He never stammers or hesitates with answers. Whatever." I said and we walked to Carlisle's car and drove to their house.
Emmett and Rose had left the game a little early since Emmett had to be well rested and be in South Bend early in the morning. Edward and I said goodnight to his parents and walked up to his room. He closed the door behind us and I went straight into the bathroom to wash my face and get ready for bed. I knew we needed to talk before anything happened tonight. Yes, because there sure as hell would be something happening. I slipped out of my bra and panties and put on one of Edward's t-shirts. I turned out the bathroom light and Edward was sitting on his side of the under the covers. I climbed into bed with him and laid my head on his chest.
"Let's talk because I need you." I cut right to the chase.
"Ok…"
"Look, I promise I'm not mad or anything. It just irked me to know the truly one person I hate was with you. I mean what are the chances? Tanya doesn't even go to Notre Dame, how did you even manage to meet her?" I asked. Tanya went to Bethel College, which is not far from Notre Dame but still. WHAT ARE THE CHANCES?
"I met her at a party and yeah…you know what our relationship was. Why do you hate her so much?"
"She is a bitch. That's why." I said and huffed.
"Bella, we are supposed to talk this through." Edward brought his hand to my chin and made me look at him.
"I know. It just still makes me mad. I'm sorry. Anyway, I'll start from the beginning. She went to a different elementary school then I did. One year, I really wanted to play soccer, so my Dad signed me up. Let's just say, I'm not coordinated enough to play soccer and that was the first and last time I played. Tanya was on my team or I guess I should say I was on her team since her dad was the coach. So, after the first few practices, everyone was nice enough to me even though I sucked. That would be with the exception of Tanya. She would constantly whisper in my ear that I was no good or if I could even see the ball or why wasn't I wearing the best soccer gear. I didn't let most of the stuff get to me. I was glad when the season was over. So, then the school year started back up and just my luck, she switched schools and was in my class. I tried to ignore her but when she started saying stuff about my Mom, I couldn't take it anymore. We fought constantly and it didn't really stop until junior high when I met Rose and Alice. You know, I never even told Tanya my Mom was gone but you think the day that she found out in sixth grade she would stop, right? Wrong! She still went at it and couldn't have cared less. Rose finally had enough one day and while we were in gym class, she just punched her in the face. From then on she kept her mouth shut for the most part but would still make her snide comments here and there. I learned to not let it get to me but it doesn't mean I still can't hate the bitch." I let it all out and Edward sat there and listened. "Wait, oh my God, Edward! I said all of those things in front of your parents tonight. How embarrassing, I need to make sure I apologize for that." I groaned and he laughed.
"I'm sure my parents know you didn't just say that without a reason but yes, they heard it all. I'm really sorry that she put you through that all these years but the past is the past and I can't change the fact I was with her. Not with her, with her but you know what I mean. I'm glad you told me and I now know not to ever associate with her again." Edward said and placed a kiss on my lips. I sat up, straddled him, and looked into his eyes.
"Thank you." I kissed his neck and was making my way up when he started speaking again.
"You know that saying or I don't know if it's even a saying but you know that advice people give married couples about 'Never go to bed mad at each other'? I think that it really is good advice."
"I think so too. It's all about communication, right? I think so far, we have been doing a pretty good job on communicating but not enough fornicating." We laughed and Edward quickly moved us, so I was lying underneath him.
"Yeah, sounds about right. So let's get to it, love." He said and began to move his hands up my thighs. I was caressing back, when he groaned. "Bella, you have been sitting here this entire time with nothing on underneath my shirt? What did I do to deserve that punishment?" He pouted.
"Hey, what you don't know won't hurt you. Besides, I didn't want to waste time with trying to get them off." I explained and smiled.
"You are so going to get it." Edward said, tugging up on the shirt, and removed it.
"Yeah, that's what I was hoping." I said and pulled his boxers off.
We lay there, kissing and touching. It wasn't rushed; it was just us loving each other. Finally, we came together. I gasped and closed my eyes, as every inch of him filled me, just feeling. The swift but gentle thrusting, our mouths pressed together, and the look of pure affection, I was near my release. With his face nuzzled into my neck and my hands on his hips, we fell over the edge. We held onto each other for a moment before laying on our sides and hands caressed.
"Good night, Bella. I love you."
"I love you too, Edward. Good night."
We drifted to sleep in each other's arms and at one point; I thought that I never wanted to fall asleep in another man's arms again. That it would only ever be Edward.
