Thanks for the reviews for the last chapter.

BPOV

Friday night was a great night. It was nice to spend time with the girls. Even Alice. The thing was I didn't dislike her at all. She could be really sweet when she wasn't trying to take over everything. Take last night. I had told her just to bring her self. She turned up with a bottle of champagne, to celebrate new friendships she said, and she had brought a little dog for Carson that moved like a real puppy. It was a really nice gesture and I loved the fact that she had thought to bring something for him.

When we had Carson in bed and the champagne and wine had gone to our heads Rosalie decided to ask if Edward was as good in bed as Emmett. I really didn't like talking about stuff like that but between the three of them there was no way I was getting away with giving them nothing.

**Flashback**

"Come on Bella you have to give us something!" Angela yelled at me.

"Yeah Bella, not that I want too many details because he is my brother, but at least tell us if you're being looked after." Alice giggled.

"Let's just say I am being looked after extremely well." I blushed.

"I knew it! I knew Edward was packing! Is he as good with his tongue with as Emmett is? He does this thing where he uses his tongue and fingers at the same time. He-"

"Rosalie!" I cut her off.

"Bella we're all adults here. If you can't talk about sex you shouldn't be having it." she answered matter of factly.

"It's not that I can't talk about it. I just feel that stuff that we do should be kept between Edward and I."

"Okay I can understand that. Me, on the other hand, I like to brag about my man!" Rosalie laughed.

**Flashback End**

I had to get up early the next morning to start baking. Rosalie had asked me to make some cupcakes for their opening. I had decided to make chocolate fudge, raspberry and white chocolate and red velvet. I got to work and before long Carson was up. Once I was finished baking I got his bag packed for tonight. I had arranged with my father to take him home. I wanted to wait and go to the opening a bit later so that by the time we got there my dad was ready to leave which meant Carson couldn't cause any mayhem at the store but Alice and Rosalie wouldn't hear of it.

Edward came over around one with lunch. We spent a quiet afternoon together with Carson and then Edward kept an eye on him while I got ready. Alice had asked if I wanted to wear something from the store. She had said that her, Rosalie and her mom were all wearing one of their own designs so as part of the family she would be honoured if I would do the same, although she understood if I already had something. I could see she was making an effort not to be overbearing so I agreed. She dropped a dress off this morning so I just hoped it would fit.

I opened the garment bag to find the most beautiful silk dress. It was a black sleeveless dress that was hung straight down to mid thigh and had black ostrich feathers all along the bottom. It was classic and understated. It was perfect for me. She had also left a pair of black platform stilettos that had crystal covered three inch heels. They were beautiful. With everything else being black I decided to use my silver clutch bag that had a crystal covered clasp so it went with the heels.

I did my eyes smoky and used a clear lip gloss. I curled my hair and pinned the front back. I had to admit I looked good. Edward had already put Carson in his room to play and was using the spare room to get ready.

When I left my room Carson was in the hall playing in front of the spare room door. The good thing was I had a baby gate at the top of the stairs so when I was up here he could pretty much have free reign to wander as there wasn't anywhere he could go. I opened the door to tell Edward I would get him downstairs and my jaw dropped.

He was standing in front of the mirror trying to tame his hair. He was wearing a pair of black slacks with dress shoes and a silver grey coloured button down. He had a black skinny tie slung over his shoulder. He looked amazing. I finally managed to pick my jaw up and remembered how to speak.

"Hey, I was just gonna head downstairs. We need to leave in about ten minutes. You nearly ready?" I managed.

I could feel my panties dampen just looking at him.

"Yup I'll be ready in, god Bella you look amazing. Do we really have to go tonight. We could just stay here, get your dad to pick up the baby …" he trailed off as he came over and put his hands on my hips.

"As much as I wish we could, especially with you looking like that, we can't. We promised you sister and sister-in-law. Now come on." I replied as I placed a kiss on his cheek.

I knew he hated the taste of lipgloss.

I left the room with him following behind me. I went to lift Carson but he went over to Edward and out his arms up for him to get him. Just over an hour later we were at the store.

It was busy already considering it had just started at seven. It was now only seven thirty. I had thought it was strange that they were having it at night but that was what Alice and Rose wanted. That was what they had done with the Seattle boutique and it had apparently went well. I carried Carson in and Edward carried the boxes with the cupcakes.

As soon as we got in Alice spotted us.

"Bella! Hey buddy how are you? You want to come and see me?" she held her arms out for Carson and surprisingly he went.

It was the first time he had done so and Alice was beaming.

"Let's go and find Jasper. He'll be thrilled to see you." she looked to me to check this was okay and I nodded.

She wandered I away and I stood transfixed as all of them made their way over to them. Jasper had Carson now and whatever he was saying to him had him giggling. Alice was standing with them with a big grin on her face. Emmett and Rosalie had wandered over and were talking to Carson as well. He still shied away slightly from Emmett but he smiled at him. The minute Esme got there he held his arms out to go to her. She took him gladly with a big grin on her face. Carlisle started playing peek a boo over Esme's shoulder with him. They had all really opened their hearts to both us and it really made me smile.

I felt an arm go around my waist from behind and I leaned my head back On Edwards shoulder.

"They really love him you know. Both of you actually. I think he just made Alice's night by willingly going to her. The rest of them just adore the fact that he's here. When I told my mom we were thinking about not bringing him she nearly had a fit. She already sees him as a part of the family."

"I know. They're all really good with him. I was quite surprised when he went with Alice. I'm glad he seems to be coming around to them."

"He just has to get used to them. He's getting older as well."

"God don't remind me. I can't believe he's almost three. It has gone by so quickly. It seems like yesterday I brought him home from the hospital."

We stood quietly watching his family with my son. By now my dad was there as well. It was like there was nothing else going on for that few minutes. After Edward had done the rounds and Ali and Rose had made their speech, Charlie decided to leave and Edward and I followed close behind him.

Edward had booked us a table at La Maison, an upmarket french restaurant not far from the boutique. He knew we would be dressed up so he wanted to take advantage of it. After a delicious meal he told me he had booked us a room at the same hotel where Angela and I had stayed with the rest of the Cullens that first night we met up with them. He was on me the minute we got into the elevator.

"I missed you last night," he breathed as he kissed me senseless. His hand dropped to my thigh and brought my leg up around his hip and ground his erection into my heat.

"I missed you too," I panted as I basked in the friction between us.

The elevator pinged as we reached our floor. He grabbed me by the hand and pulled me along to our room. As soon as the door was closed he attacked my mouth, kissing me feverishly as he walked me back to the bed. The back of my knees hit and I fell onto it pulling him with me. He pulled my dress up over my head and gasped when he saw I had gone commando tonight.

"You were bare under there all night and I didn't know? That was very naughty Bella," he growled as he shoved my legs open and began ravishing my soaking pussy.

As much as I loved having sex with him it had never been as frantic as this before and I loved it. I gripped his hair as I moaned and ground into him.

"Oh fuck Edward!" I all but screamed as he fucked me with three fingers and sucked on my clit.

I was right on the edge.

"Come for me Bella, I want to feel you come all over me baby," he ordered.

Just then he bit on my clit and I screamed as my orgasm took over me. Before I had the chance to even finish he had moved up the bed, put my legs on his shoulders and rammed into me. He had never been so rough with me but clearly I had been missing out. He looked feral as he pounded in and out of me.

"Oh god Edward" I panted as I felt another orgasm building within me.

"Fuck Bella, so good" he moaned.

He moved my legs from his shoulders and placed them so that my feet were on the mattress with my knees bent . He began to suck on my breast as he thrust even faster. I moved my hands down to his ass and I could feel his muscles clench and unclench as he fucked me. There was no other way to describe what we were doing. It was pure unadulterated fucking.

"Harder baby" I growled in his ear and he began bucking furiously.

"Fuck Edward!" I moaned.

"That's it baby come for me, come all over my cock." he moaned in my ear.

"Edward!" I screamed as I came harder than I ever have before.

"Fuck Bella, I fucking love you" he groaned as he filled me with his seed.

We lay there still connected panting as he softly kissed me and I stroked his hair.

"I mean it Bella. I love you so much."

"I know baby. I love you too. With all my heart. I didn't think it was possible to love someone as much as I love you." I whispered back to him.

I felt him harden inside me again and we slowly and passionately made love then fell asleep wrapped in each others arms.

The next morning Edward collected the overnight bag from the closet. He had asked Alice to drive his car up here last night and had left a bag in the trunk and we grabbed it last night. After we had breakfast in our room we headed home. He dropped me at my house so that I could pick up my car for later on. I had finally gotten in back from the shop after arguing with my insurance company.

We then headed over to Charlie's. I wasn't surprised to find Billy here again. He would be as well moving in. After I had played with Carson for a bit I went into the kitchen to prepare the irish stew I was making for dinner. Esme had told me it was Edward's favourite and had given me the recipe. I was making enough so that my dad could freeze the leftovers and they would be there for him later in the week. I was just finishing peeling and chopping the vegetables when Billy wheeled himself into the kitchen.

"Bella, I received a letter from Jacob yesterday. He asked me to give you this." he held out two envelopes.

One had my name on the front in Jacobs scrawl and the other was blank.

"What is this?" I asked dumbly.

"It's a letter. He asked me to tell you to open yours first. It explains the other. I owe you an apology Bella." I looked at him shocked.

"I never knew things with Jacob were as bad. I knew he was drinking a lot but then all the boys down there do. The thing was I didn't realise how much he was drinking. He hasn't spent that much time at home over the past year or so. I thought maybe you were exaggerating things to keep Carson from him and I genuinely believed him when he told me he was sober the day Carson had his accident. Even when your dad spoke to me about everything that had been going on I put it down to him taking your side.

You see ever since you and Jake were little I always hoped that one day you would be the girl he would marry. When you told me about the baby I thought it would be the thing that would bring you two together. His mom told me that you didn't think of him that way but I thought that deep down you did. That's why I kept on pushing him to try and move things forward with you.

I am so sorry. I hope that whatever happens with all this custody business you will still allow me to see my grandson." he finished and looked down at his hands.

"I would never keep him from you Billy. Had Jacob gotten help and cleaned up his act I wouldn't be keeping him from Carson either but things have to be this way. I still won't bring him to the rez but you are more than welcome to come visit him or to see him here."

"Thank you. I'll let you get back to it." he smiled and then returned to the living room.

I stared at the envelope in my hand for a minute before I opened it. I wasn't prepared for what was inside.

Dear Bella,

I want to start this off with telling you how sorry I am with how I have treated you. You haven't deserved the things I have said and done to you.

Everything has just spiralled out of control and then seeing you with someone else just pushed me over the edge. I know that I haven't been the father to Carson that I should have been and I will never be able to make that up to him but I want to try.

I will start to do that by not contesting your custody petition. I am not in a good place right now and it isn't fair to him or you to drag things out. I will ask that when I am coping better that we look at changing the no visitation clause.

Right now I am staying at the Makah reservation undergoing rehabilitation for my alcoholism. I honestly didn't think I was drinking too much until I crashed my bike into Sue's car. Instead of reporting me she sat me down and forced me to see how bad things had gotten. When I think back over the things I have done to you, I am so ashamed.

I won't contact you until I am back on feet but when I am, I hope that you will allow be to be a part of my sons life. I understand that you are in a relationship and that Carson like him but he is still my son.

Thank you for reading this and again, I am sorry.

Jake
