Present Day

"Bella, I don't want you to use me for my body." Edward sighed, holding up his hands as I walked towards my car in the parking lot. I jumped at the sight of him and he grinned. "But I'm not completely against it." He wrapped his arms around me and spun me around, my feet leaving the ground. My heart slammed in my chest as I hugged him back.
"What are you talking about?" I giggled, holding on to him for dear life.
"I don't know, I just thought it'd be an adequate conversation starter." He kissed my cheek and then my nose. I bit my lip and slapped his bicep as he wiggled his eyebrows. "It wasn't. But didju' miss me?" He asked quietly before dipping his head and nipping at my neck.

I laughed, "Not even a little."

"I was gone for a whole six months."

"You were gone for five days." I said narrowing my eyes.

"The days feel like years without you, my love." He said lowly, his rich voice turning into pure sex as he spoke. I let out a soft whimper and he winked before pressing his lips to mine. I moaned against his mouth, about to mold into him when he pulled away. "That deserved a kiss in my opinion." I rolled my eyes and bit my lip as he tossed an arm over my shoulder.

"I'm surprised you're here, and not with Tanya." I said poking his side.

"Tanya can kiss my ass, I'm spending the night with my Bell-sy." He grinned, pulling me in closer and turning my back towards my building.

"Well, it's seven-thirty in the morning, first of all. And second, I have to get to work. So as much as I would love for you to sexually harass me all day, I've got stuff to do."
"But, I'm tired." He frowned making my lift my eyebrows. "Okay, how about this, you call in for a substitute and I'll make the money you would make today up to you."
"Why don't you just go upstairs and sleep and by the time you wake up, I'll be home." I shrugged, gesturing up to my building.
"I wanted to sleep with you." He said, putting his hands on his hips. I knew he just meant cuddle, but Edward Cullen didn't give a shit about double entendres. "Come on, Babe. I know you missed me just as much." He pulled me back against him and kissed my neck. I shook my head because of course I'd missed his hot ass.
"You can come with me." I said regretfully. Last time Edward had shown up the staff had done me the pleasure of buying a wedding planning book. It was embarrassing.
"Well if it's really that hard for you-" I gripped his forearm, rising on to my tip toes.
"No, it's just... We're testing and you're just a tad bit distracting." He pursed his lips, moving his mouth to the left.
"It's the face, huh?" He asked.

"It's the face." I nodded with a mock pout.

"Damn my devilishly good looks." He said laying it on thick with the accent.

"Oh and with the terrible accent too? You're just a lady killer."

"I don't know why you're laughing. It's real, jerk." He bumped my arm and tugged my keys out of my hands. "It's not like you haven't been wet for me since we met." I pursed my lips.

"Oh I was definitely attracted to the five year old version of you." I said lifting an eyebrow and heading to the passenger's seat of my car. We both got in and he rolled his eyes, starting up the car. "And if I recall, you were the only one wetting yourself." He rolled his eyes and zoomed out of the parking lot.

"I was nervous." He wrinkled his nose. "Imagine moving from beautiful London to a new country where everyone had ugly accents and cows-"

"Who had a cow, Edward?" He ignored me but a smirk pulled at the corners of his lips.

"Then having a little, brown haired, snot smack you on your first day, that wasn't too fun either." He sighed, squinting at the road ahead.

"I didn't smack you. I was waving and your face got in the way."

"That doesn't happen, Bella. Ever."

"Apparently it does." I rolled my eyes before sneaking glances at his strong profile.

There was no doubt my best friend was gorgeous. It was actually fucking ridiculous how attractive he was. His strong, scruff covered jaw just begged to be licked, especially when he flexed it. His full lips met in a soft, sinful pout that would make angels weep. His slim nose that was slightly pointed, but not overly so, was framed by two high, defined cheek bones. Then there were the eyes. He had wide, pure jade eyes. The color was so magnificent it went unmatched; even his mother's eyes weren't that pure. His eyebrows were thick and just as perfect, and sculpted as the rest of him.

There was a reason he was nicknamed Adonis in high school.

Despite the fact that he put Adonis to shame.

"Bella, Jesus... If you keep looking at me like that..." I snapped back to the present to see his eyes dark with want.

"Sorry," I whispered, "it's the face." He gave me a sexy smirk and my stomach twisted with want.

"We have enough time for a quicky..." He said with a shrug, looking at the clock on my dashboard that read 8:07.

Because that worked out so well the last time.

"My class starts in eight minutes." I said, biting my lip. I looked up to see him staring at my mouth, he leaned forward and I turned my cheek, so that his lips pressed against my flushed skin. If he kissed me now, we wouldn't leave the car for another hour. He didn't pull away, resting his forehead against my temple.

"I missed you." He said again, his sweet breath ghosting down my neck. We got like this every time he left for business. Obviously we didn't fair too well without each other.

"I missed you too, but I have to get to work." I pouted, grabbing my purse and the bag with all of my graded papers. I almost kicked my car door open and hauled ass up the stairs of Forks Elementary.

"Hi, Ms. Swan!" Little voices chorused as they stood, waving at me from where they stood outside the building. Alice chuckled at me and shook her head as I ran up to where she stood, supervising all of the kids.

"Hey, guys!" I waved back at them as I adjusted my bag on my shoulder.

"I'll send your class in last," Alice said as the bells rang and she and the others on line duty lifted their hands up to call the kids to attention.

"Thank you!" I called pulling open a door. "I owe you!"

"I know." She giggled before sending in Mr. Thompson's class. I darted through the halls and quickly unlocked my door as the loud crowd of kids filed in.

I'd been teaching at Forks Elementary for two years, it was the same school I'd done my student teaching from and I loved it. The kids were great and as far as I knew the liked me as much as I did them. There was only one problem with the school.

It was completely oppressive to newer teachers, like me. The shit they did was like hazing but far worse. The few, who had stood up to the administration, and the board, were quickly fired because they'd been unjustly denied tenure, again like me. The kids were really the only thing that eased the blow.

I only had time enough to sit my things down and pull off my coat before my kids entered, hanging their coats and backpacks on the racks.

Edward strolled in behind them wearing the school's mandatory visitor sticker. After all the kids were seated I clapped twice, receiving a number of unorganized claps back.

"Welcome back, and happy Friday!" I started, eliciting a few excited whoops. "As I'm sure you saw, Mr. Cullen is joining us again-" five hands shot into the air and I sighed and pointed at the closest to me.

"Is he your boyfriend?" Kaelin asked as she stared unabashedly at him.

"No." I smiled before picking on another hand.

"Your husband?"

"We're friends." I said with a wince as I looked back to Edward who was laughing his ass off at me from his seat in the back. "Okay, no more questions. Our lesson today is on page ninety seven, We'll be learning about the semicolon today." I smiled warmly.

"My dad has a colon!" Little Tyler yelled from his seat. "He had it oscopied the other day!" The rest of the glass giggled even though I was positive none of them knew what a colonoscopy was. Edward snorted loudly from the back to, making the kids laugh harder. I bit my lip to keep from laughing and turned to the board, writing SEMICOLON in caps.

"Let's get started, shall we?" I said with a smirk. "Linden, would you like to read for us?" The little blonde in the back nodded happily and started lisping her way through the paragraph.

My phone chimed on my hip and I sat behind my desk, pulling out and reading it underneath the desk.

I'm definitely hot for teacher ;) -E

I blushed and met his eyes across the room to see him bite his lip.

I'm going to put you in the hall if you can't keep it together-B

Will you spank me too? -E

Iswallowed thickly and looked up as Linden finished.

"Good." I smiled, "Kevin?" The little redhead nodded and ducked his head to look at the book.

This is going to be a long day. -B

I'm sorry- E

I rolled my eyes and my phone buzzed again.

I love you-E

I bit my lip, to keep from grinning like a fool as I looked up at him. He blew me a kiss and after checking to make sure no one looked I pretended to catch it and cheekily but it in my pocket. I quickly handed out tests and let the kids get started while Edward and I continued texting.

When it was time for lunch, I walked my kids to the cafeteria and made sure they were seated before I went back to Edward. He sat at my desk flipping through my phone when I returned.

"What are you doing?" I asked, perching on the desk in front of him and taking my phone.

"Looking for nudes." He shrugged, stealing it back.

"I don't have any." I rolled my eyes, curling a lip. His eyes widened and I furrowed my eyebrows.

"Hold on…" He pulled out his own phone and scrolled through his photo gallery.

"Then whose are these?" He asked, opening a picture of naked breasts and turning them my way. The weirdest, most despicable part was I knew who the overly operated on boobs belonged to. I pushed the phone down, in case anyone happened to walk in.

"Those are Tanya's." I said biting my lip. He nodded and shrugged before patting his lap, because getting nudes is average for him. I smiled knowing no one would be able to see us as I moved into his lap.

"When have I ever sent you a nude?" I rolled my eyes and he shrugged, laying his head on my chest.

"I thought you missed me enough to cross the line into friends with benefits." I locked eyes with him, giving him a withering look. That line was almost invisible at the moment.

"No, babe." I said tapping his lips with my finger. "I did miss you enough to endure the upcoming Edward-packed weekend, though."

"Well you sure know how to make a guy feel special." He said with a country accent, with undertones of his normal cockney accent. I grinned and rested my head on his shoulder.

"I try." I smiled against his neck. His arm circled my waist as he continued going through my pictures.

"Have you talked to your parents since I left?" He asked and my eyebrows furrowed. I looked down at the picture of my parents, his brother and the president. They looked so damn snooty that I was surprised I'd kept the picture I wasn't allowed in. I wasn't presentable that day, as per Renee Swan, in my slacks and silk blouse. So I was on picture taking duty the day the president met my parents and Emmett Cullen for brunch which was years ago. My parents were among Washington's elite, the reason for the president's visit. My grandfather founded the largest industrial company in the U.S. and his money had been bestowed on my parents and grandmother. Therefore making my parents believe they were the hottest shit since bacon.

"No."

"Don't leave things like that, Bella." I ignored his words and fingered his collar. His eyes trailed down my arm to my hand before flicking up to mine.

"I made a pretty big decision this week. Gave a bunch of money to charity… They aren't too happy, or they won't be when they find out." I shrugged.

"Let me guess, "there wouldn't be a problem if those people worked for food and shelter. Just like the rest of us"." He said mocking my mother in a high pitched American accent which was still very bad and exaggerated despite his being here for two decades. His voice took on a whiny tone and I wrinkled my nose. ""Mom, what are you talking about? You married rich." "And you could to if you'd get your life together! How about that nice, sexy, too-fine-for-his-own-good Cullen boy? You'd have to be a lesbian to resist him!"" I scowled at his making fun of me and he laughed, not knowing how scary accurate that was.

Apart from the accents.

"You know what-?"

"Bella!" Alice's voice shrieked as she almost pulled my door off of the hinges. I yelped and scrambled out of Edward's lap, landing on the floor. He furrowed his eyebrows, before helping me stand.

"Are you okay?" He whispered, I nodded and turned to Alice.

"Oh!" She squealed, stopping in the doorway. "Never mind."

I blushed and pushed my hair behind my ear. "Alice, this is Edward. Edward, Alice." Alice Brandon, Forks Elementary kindergarten teacher. We'd met during my student teaching and we became fast friends. She aside from Edward was my best friend.

She just held up her hands and ducked out of the room. "I saw nothing."
