Chapter Two: A few rules

EPOV:

No matter what anyone says, love at first sight does happen. I've seen it happen with every girl I've dated and I was seeing it again tonight. The only difference between what I've gone through and this is that it wasn't me who was getting burned, it was Bella.

"God damn it!" Bella stormed past me, not once disturbing the new lovebirds.

Rose nodded to me as I quickly went after her, hoping to stop her from whatever stupid thing she was about to do. I found her ordering a drink at the bar, while some sleazy guy was watching her every move, probably hoping her skirt would ride up just enough that he could check out what kind of panties she had on tonight. I quickly walked up behind her and slipped my arm around her waist.

"There you are, baby," I kissed the top of her head and she looked up at me, confusion all over her face.

"What?"

I leaned down so I was next to her ear, making the guy think I was doing more than I was, before I whispered to her, "There's a really sleazy guy about four stools down that hasn't stopped watched you. I didn't like him and this way he thinks you're taken."

She quickly kissed my cheek before downing the shot that had been placed before her; she slammed the glass down and ordered a beer. We stood there, my arm around her waist, waiting for her drink before pushing through the crowd to get back to the table.

"Bella," Alice said and I quickly shook my head at her. She nodded and walked away. We took a seat beside Rose and Emmett, who pulled Bella against him as if to shield her from the world. "You okay, Bellsy?"

She gave him a slight nod as she stared down at her drink. I knew she was far from okay at this point and I knew that the only person she was going to even remotely open up to tonight would be me. But in order for her to do that I'd have to get her out of here.

"Bella," I whispered as my hand wrapped around one of hers. Her big brown eyes looked up at me and I saw the tears lining them, threatening to escape any second now. "Oh Bella," I pulled her against me as Rose covered her mouth to hide the gasp that threatened to escape. This was the side of Bella that she'd never seen before, and a side I saw more than anyone else. She clung to me as she cried on and I looked up to find Alice staring at her.

"Why Edward, why me?" She cried as I rubbed her back up and down. Her tears began to subside and I immediately pulled us up.

"We're going to go." The group only nodded as I started walking away, Bella holding onto me for dear life, before I finally picked her up into my arms and carried her the rest of the way out to the car.

We walked into my apartment and Bella immediately threw herself into my arms. I lightly kicked the door shut as she finally completely let go. "Bella," I whispered as she clung to me, her nails pressed into my skin and I knew I'd have tiny crescent marks on my body in the morning.

I tried to move us, but quickly gave up that idea; instead I picked her up and wrapped her legs around my waist. I walked towards the couch and together fell down onto it. Bella continued to cry in my lap, her legs and arms completely wrapped around me as I held her and continued to whisper soothing words of comfort to her. Finally she looked up at me and my heart broke at the pain that laced her every word, "Why me?" she whispered as her tears finally began to stop.

"Oh baby girl, it's not you." I tried to say but she shook her head.

"Edward, you're the only guy who never runs away from me."

"Well that's because you're eternally stuck with me."

She laughed and pulled away from me until she was sitting beside me on the couch. "I know she's your sister, but what the hell!"

I laughed as she continued to rant about Alice. "He was my God damn date!"

"Bella-" I started but once again she cut me off.

"I know, I know. Is this how you felt the first time?" She looked at me and once again I saw tears in her eyes, however this time I knew they weren't just for her, they were for me as well.

"Yes," I whispered, the memory of Jessica, my first love, came to my mind and I couldn't look at Bella anymore.

"Oh, honey," She wrapped her arms around my neck, but I couldn't let the pain consume me as it had in the past. It had happened a long time ago and I needed to let it go. Instead I grabbed Bella's arms and moved them until her hands were in mine.

"Jess and Jasper are two totally different situations, Bells. I was completely in love with her, from my toes up to the tips of my hair. Jessica completely owned me. And Jasper, well, he probably owned your libido for a couple hours," I whispered as she stared at me.

"Alice-" I cut her off by shaking my head.

"She fell in love, Bella, she can't help that."

"I know." Her head finally fell in defeat and I knew that her moment of sadness was over.

We stayed like that for a while. She sat there thinking about what had happened while I was trying my hardest to squash the pain that was threatening to come back and consume me whole.

"Edward."

"Yeah, baby girl?" I said using the nickname I used to call her when she was younger.

"I quit."

I couldn't help but laugh at her. "You're swinging that way now?"

She winked at me and we both started laughing hysterically.

"I'm done with dating for a while," she said after we finally calmed down.

"Are you sure?"

"Yup," she said, popping the p for emphasis.

"What about sex?"

She looked up in thought before nodding. "All done."

"Bella, you broke two rabbits during your last sex hiatus. Are you sure you can do it again?"

"I got this heavy duty rabbit last week," she whispered

"You, Bella Swan, are the horniest little thing I've ever met."


BPOV:

I agreed to meet up with Alice the following morning at our favorite Starbucks down the road from Edward's apartment. I walked in some twenty minutes before our expected meeting time and looked around for the evil little pixie before making my way to the counter to order.

"Morning Bella," Amanda, my favorite Starbucks barista, said when it was my turn.

"Hey, Girlie, how's it going?"

"Ah, you know, the usual," she said as she started ringing up my order, already knowing exactly what I wanted.

"Can you make it three shots today? I have to deal with the pixie this morning."

"Gottcha," she said with a smile before working on my white chocolate mocha, the drink of the Gods as I had deemed it. I waited by the end of the counter until Amanda called me back up and we made a definite plan to hang out soon before I sat down to wait.

"Bella." I looked up from my book and saw my best friend, who had obviously been crying all night long.

"Girlie, you fall in love and what do you do, cry all night?"

She stared at me until I nodded at her before she finally burst. "I'm so sorry Bella! I just saw him and that was it."

I stood up and pulled her into my arms, her arms wrapped around me and I rubbed my hands up and down her back like a mother would with her child. "Allie, you fell in love, that's huge." I pulled back and looked into her hazel eyes. "Did you take him home?"

Her face fell instantly and I knew something wasn't right. "I ran out after you left. I felt so horrible."

"Mary Alice Cullen, what the hell is wrong with you? You meet your soul mate and instead of fucking his brains out, you follow me? Get the hell out of here and go find that man."

She laughed before we both sat down at the table I'd been occupying. We talked until I finally managed to get her to go see him, because I knew she really wanted to. I smiled as I walked back to Edward's. I kept thinking about my new sabbatical from dating and how good it would be for me. Edward smiled when he saw me walk in before pointing to his television.

"I recorded Teen Mom for you."

"You're a babe, thank you!" I called up to him before I literally dove into his couch.

5 WEEKS LATER:

"Fuck, bitch, slut, whore!" I screamed before slamming the door behind me.

"Hello to you too, Bella." Edward called down to me from the loft.

"Your sister is a mega bitch!" I threw my things down in frustration and kicked off my shoes.

"How so?" he asked as he walked down to the main floor.

"She told me about her and Jazz's sex life, all fucking day!"

"Gross, Bella, she's my sister."

"Sorry, but damn it, I can't hear that right now."

"Are you going crazy yet?" he asked as he walked towards the kitchen for a beer. I waited until it hit his mouth to reply.

"I'm so horny I could mount your beer bottle."

Beer flew in the air as Edward coughed and gagged. "Bella, what the hell!"

"I'm horny."

"Use your rabbit!"

"It broke!" I yelled, as he grew silent before laughter overtook him.

"Oh Bella," he walked over and wrapped his arm around me, which caused me to lightly moan, "you've really hit your withdrawal, haven't you?"

I nodded as my eyes roamed up and down his amazing body. Believe me, I'm not an idiot, I know my best friend is freaking hot as hell, I'll be the first one to tell you that. But now, after five weeks of nothing but my stupid rabbit, I was going crazy. I had to fuck something and I had to do it soon. Pun completely intended.

"Bella," Edward said as I shook my head. He stared at me as I realized what I could do, or rather whom.

"I don't want a one night stand," I said before walking over to the couch.

I looked up at him and sighed. "I'm tired of getting screwed over."

"Yeah," he said before sitting beside me.

"You're sick of bitches falling for the other guy."

"Bella, what are you talking about?"

"Do me."

"Excuse me."

I slid up to him and threw my legs over his. "Do me gorgeous,"

I watched as his Adams apple moved and his eyes roamed my body. I watched as he took in the offspring tee shirt, which had recently shrunk in the wash, doing nothing to hide the fact that my nipples were hard as pebbles. His eyes finally moved down to my jean skirt and black leggings, which gave me that girly sporty look that Alice was somewhat all right with. He finally looked up at me and I saw the lust that was suddenly in his eyes.

"Bella, we're friends. We can't go there."

"We can. Look, we just do this for the sex, no love, no emotion what so ever. We just have pure raw sex."

He pushed my legs off of him and stood up. "Bella, that never works."

I stood up and glared at him. "That's what every idiot in the world wants you to believe, but we can be different."

"You're just horny."

I finally snapped and slammed him against the wall. He stared down at me, his eyes full of shock and more of the lust I saw earlier.

"Bella, God baby," he whispered

"I'm dying and, Edward, you have my cure."

He started laughing as I slid up against him, running my hands against his abs.

He hissed and his hands were suddenly on my hips.

"Jesus, you're serious aren't you?"

"Edward, I can't just date men for sex anymore."

"I can't either, Bella."

"We can set rules and we'll never break them."

He stood there, silent, his hands on my hips and his eyes full of lust and something else I couldn't quite figure out.

"Rules, babe, there's got to be rules."

In that instance I knew I'd won.


EPOV:

No one can ever say that my best friend isn't a seductress. She could seduce the most celibate of priests in the world with one look, but tonight, tonight that evil girl had turned her sights on me and she'd won. Although if I were completely honest with myself, I would admit that I'd thought about it a couple times after I'd been dumped by some skank.

"Rules, babe, there's got to be rules.."

She walked up the stairs and pulled a notebook off my desk in the office. Together we sat down on my bed and started working out the rules of our little arrangement. We finally came up with eight rules and the ability to add more if needed.

No declarations, including love and relationship status.

If one of us meets our soul mate or finds a relationship then the deal's off.

No acting like a couple out in public.

You drop all when the other one calls.

Protection! Use it every single time!

No one needs to know what we're doing.

We're friends no matter what.

No emotional commitment to said fornicating.

I smiled up at her before putting the notebook on the nightstand. "So do we do this now or what?"

"Now," she said as she tore her shirt over her head. I gulped as her breasts came into view due to her lack of a bra. "Your turn."

I pulled my shirt over my head, watching as she appraised me.

"Still working on the pack?"

"I have four right now," I defended as she smiled.

"It's hot, Edward." She licked her lips and my heart sped up.

"Was that emotional commitment?" I said with a smile on my face.

"Fuck you," she hissed before her lips connected with mine.

My lips melted into her as my hands come to rest on her hips once again. The kiss was one I'd never felt before and it fueled my commitment to her idea. Her mouth parted and her tongue pressed gently against my lips, asking for permission before I tangled my own with hers. She suddenly pulled away and moaned loudly, her eyes crazed and filled with lust.

"Oh God, Edward, no foreplay just fuck me," she hissed before I started unhooking my belt.

She watched in amazement as my pants pooled on the floor and my dick made a tent out of my boxers. "Yum," she whispered as I laughed.

"Show me what you got, Swan." She unbuttoned her jeans slowly before shimmying them off her hips. My eyes bugged out when I saw nothing but skin. "Bella-"

"Most days," she said as she pressed her body against mine, "I'm completely commando."

I crushed us together as my mouth attacked her. She shoved her hands into my hair while I ran my hands up and down her sides until finally moving them to cover her breasts. As I tweaked each nipple, she threw her head back enough for me to move my kisses to her neck, sucking on the sensitive skin like a vampire claiming its meal.

"Oh God, if you don't fuck me now, I'm going to hurt you so bad." She moaned as she pushed my hands away from her and quickly removed my boxers from my body.

She looked up at me before her hand cupped my balls, rolling them slightly around causing jolts of pleasure and pain to hit me instantly. My head fell back as she laughed.

"You like that?"

I answered her by pushing back until she hit the bed and I followed, covering her body with my own. We both groaned when my dick came into contact with her extremely wet pussy. I knew I had to see for myself just how wet she actually was, so I ran my hand down between us until I found her wet, aching core.

"Oh God Bella, I can feel how bad you want me." I rubbed her clit as she purred under me, completely under my control. I ran my fingers down until I felt where the liquid was coming from and slammed two fingers inside her.

"Oh holy fucking God damn bitch!"

I pulled my fingers out and slammed them back in repeatedly as her hand wrapped around my throbbing cock. I stopped moving, leaving my fingers inside her, as I watched her hand. She rubbed the tip with her thumb, spreading the pre-cum down the base before cupping my balls again.

"Okay enough foreplay." I rolled off her and pulled a condom out of the nightstand beside my bed. Bella snatched it out of my hand before tearing it open with her teeth. I groaned and watched her roll it down on me.

"Come on, sexy," she fell to her back and her hands came up to play with her nipples, "fuck me. Show me how you use that beast."

I growled, a fucking animalistic growl, at her before covering one of her nipples with my mouth. Her legs wrapped around my back and I felt her move till my head was at her entrance. I pulled away from her breasts and stared at her, silently asking if she was ready. She nodded and I pushed all the way in. We both moaned, loudly as I felt her tighten around my cock.

"Oh fuck, you're so tight."

"Oh God, I'm already so fucking close. You need to move now."

I leaned down and kissed her before I started slamming in and out of her. I watched her face as she moaned. I was fucking her faster and harder than I'd fucked anyone before, and she was taking everything I gave her. She clenched and tightened around me as I felt myself getting close, but I wasn't going alone. I grabbed her hand and moved it down to her clit.

"I'm close, Bella, get yourself off. Use my cock, baby." She moaned and squeezed as she rubbed her clit.

"Oh Edward, I'm going to… OH GOD I'm cumming."

I felt her start before she even said the words. She came around my cock, pulling me along with her. We both rode out our orgasms before collapsing against each other. I slowly pulled out of her and removed the condom from my achy dick. She watched me the entire time, a small smile on her face. She pulled me down beside her when I walked back to the bed and curled herself up against my side.

"Thank you," she whispered.

I wrapped my arms around her and kissed the top of her head.

"I'm sleeping over okay?" she said, her voice already full of sleep.

"Good night, B."
