Chapter 30: Party Weekend Part 1
Edward's POV
I felt myself waking slowly, my body conditioned to wake for work at a certain time. I turned off the alarm so it wouldn't buzz in my ear. I turned my head away from the harsh light and breathed in. Bella. I cracked me eyes slowly to a head of glorious chestnut hair. I couldn't stop the smile that tugged at my lips. It wasn't a dream. She was really here asleep in my arms. She was still asleep her breathing even and soft against my chest. I used my free hand to move a strand of hair that had fallen over her eyes. I felt my chest swell when I remembered the night before.
She had planned a beyond perfect date. I had never mentioned that Mae was one of my favorite contemporary bands. The fact that she got us tickets and agreed to go, even though there was a large crowd, was wonderful. That gesture meant more to me than she'd ever know. The backstage passes were icing on the cake, and then getting to play with them was beyond awesome. She'd handled the venue with grace and poise, and it opened up so many possibilities for the future. There were so many places I wanted to take her starting with the Seattle Aquarium. I just knew she'd love it.
I shifted her slowly until her face rested on my pillow, and I could turn on my side. I folded my arm under my head so I could watch her sleep. She looked so peaceful and at ease. The crease that normally formed between her eyebrows was smooth, and I could see no tension on her face. Her lips were parted slightly; she wasn't snoring but rather lightly purred. It was absolutely adorable. She shifted slightly and reached her hand out until she latched onto me. Her face scrunched and she whimpered slightly. I smirked knowing she wanted me closer. I scooted to her and wrapped my arm around her back, which caused her to snuggle into my hold.
"Better," she murmured. She wedged a leg between mine and burrowed further into me. I loved feeling her wrapped around me not knowing where I ended and she began.
"Bella," I whispered wondering if she were awake, as her breath had become uneven. She grunted so I chuckled. "Are you awake, love?" She nodded but didn't vocalize her answer. She peeked up at me through one squinty eye. I smiled at her, and she smiled back.
"Good morning," her voice was husky with sleep. The sight of her freshly awake, and in my boxers and shirt no less, made a predatory smile cross my face. She looked at me with a cocked eyebrow. "What?"
"You look so sexy in my clothes waking up in my bed." She turned slightly red. "I could really get used to this." She smiled before turning her head back into my chest.
"You look ruttish in rumpled pajamas and a scruffy face." Her voice was a bit muddled, but I heard her.
"Ruttish? How can you be so smart this early in the morning?" She looked over me before scowling.
"First, why the hell are we up at 6:15? Second," she pointed at herself, "writer…remember?" I laughed.
"Eddie, it's time to get up," Emmett said as he opened the door. "We have to-Shit! Sorry." He turned around and covered his eyes as I laughed. I wasn't worried. She was completely covered, and we weren't doing anything compromising. "Sorry. Did I wake her?" he whispered.
"I'm awake, Emmey," she rasped as she rolled over and scooted back until she curved her body to mine.
"Don't forget about work, Eddie." He shut the door, but less than a minute later, he opened it again. "What are you doing here, Bellaboo?"
"I was sleeping. It was a late night." He waggled his eyebrows at me.
"Get out," I said. He laughed as he shut the door again. "Baby, I have to go to work." She sighed. "Sleep as long as you want. When you leave, just click the lock beforehand. It'll lock itself."
She hummed, but I could tell she wasn't coherent. I kissed her temple before sliding out of bed and going to take a shower. I stood under the hot spray for at least fifteen minutes trying to wake fully. We did have a late night, and it was early. I hadn't gotten much sleep, but what I did get was great with her warm body wrapped around mine. I dressed and finished getting ready before going to the kitchen to get coffee. I kissed her forehead before leaving the room.
I went straight to the coffeepot and poured a cup. I was going to need the caffeine before the day was out. Emmett was rutting through the refrigerator until he came out with a few eggs and bacon. He held them up with a cocked eyebrow, but I shook my head. I didn't feel like food just yet. He stayed quiet as he cooked, but I could tell he wanted to say something, ask something. I sat down at the bar and pulled a piece of paper and pen from against the wall to write Bella a note.
"Late night, huh?" Emmett finally asked. I smirked. He hadn't lasted ten minutes.
"Yep," I answered as I continued to write.
"Tiring activities?"
"Out late. We got home at 1:30 this morning."
"Why were you out so late?"
"She planned yesterday's date."
"You let her? I figured you'd pull that sexist 'I should be the one taking you on dates' crap."
"It's not crap, and it's not sexist."
"Whatever. What did you do?" He plated up his eggs and bacon.
"She cooked dinner, got tickets and backstage passes to a Mae concert, and then I got to play with them for an hour." His fork paused halfway to his mouth; his mouth hung open.
"What? Really? How did she manage that?"
"She worked with them on a previous album. She knows them and the founder of Tooth and Nail Records. It was amazing." I recounted the whole night's events while he sat dumbfounded.
"Wow. That's awesome. Who knew?" I nodded as I signed the note. "We need to go."
"Give me just a minute." I took the note to my room and laid it on the pillow next to her head. "Bella?" I whispered to see if she was awake. She reached out to my side of the bed and pawed at the empty space. I grabbed a pillow off the floor and handed it to her. She pulled it into her and hugged it. "I have to go to work baby. I'll call you later." I leaned forward and kissed her lips gently. "I love you."
I closed my door quietly and made my way to the front door. Emmett was standing there waiting. I told him we were taking the jeep, so he grabbed his keys as we locked up the apartment. Ben was on the same shift as us so we made plans to play cards later with Tyler, Nathan, and William. It was around 10:00am when my phone beeped with a text message. I pulled the message up and had to smile when I saw it was from Bella. :( I just woke up to an empty bed, but luckily I found a wonderful note. :) The door is locked, and I'm missing you already. I love you. xoxo
Emmett saw my 'shit-eating grin,' as he yelled, and he dove to try to grab my phone. I pulled it behind me, smiling smugly that I thwarted him. All of a sudden, I felt the phone slip from my hand. I turned around the find Nathan, the traitor, flipping through my messages. I tried to get it back, but Tyler held me back. Once he found the message, he read it aloud in a girly voice as the others 'oohed' and 'ahhed.'
"Let's text her back," Nathan said. "We don't want her to think her boy's ignoring her."
"Don't you dare," I said.
"Tell her he misses the feel of her body, that he wants to feel her wrapped around him," Emmett said.
"Ask if she'd be willing to come to the station for a booty call," Tyler said with a laugh.
"Don't do it," I said again. Nathan was typing quickly on my phone. He smiled triumphantly as he closed the phone and lightly tossed it to the table. Tyler finally released me, and I grabbed the phone. I opened the outbox to see what he had written. It was exactly what they said to type. "I hate you."
"You love me," he said. "Just like you do your girlfriend." I couldn't stop the smile. I took the mature route and flipped him off before grabbing my phone and walking out to the back patio. I called Bella, and she picked up on the second ring.
"Hello?" she said tentatively. I sighed hoping she wasn't upset.
"Hello, love," I said. "I wanted to explain about that last text. The guys sent it." I could hear her breath out a sigh of relief.
"The guys huh?" I could hear the smile in her voice.
"Tyler, Nathan, William, Emmett, and I were playing cards. I pulled out the phone when I got your text, and Nathan took it from me. I tried to get it back, but Tyler held me so that I couldn't get to it. They texted to you back. I'm sorry." She was laughing by the time I finished explaining.
"Don't be sorry. I think it's funny. They're just messing with you."
"Well, they got one thing right. I do miss the feel of you wrapped around me. I slept marvelously last night."
"Me too," she said in a small voice. "Thank you for leaving me the keys to the Volvo. I feel weird driving it though." I wouldn't admit that I felt nervous letting her drive the Volvo. I didn't normally let anyone drive it, but I wouldn't leave her stranded until someone could come get her. "I would have waited until someone could come get me, but they're all working right now."
"Don't worry about it." I sat down at one of the picnic tables. The day was clear and warming nicely.
"I'm going straight home, and it'll stay parked. Since you get off Monday and I go back to work on Monday, I was thinking I'd bring the keys to you before then. I could even bring lunch or dinner, if you're free. Would that be okay?"
"That's be great. Do you want to plan on dinner tonight? If we get a call, I will send you a text."
"Perfect."
"Okay, I'll-" I was cut off when the phone was pulled from my ear.
"Hello, Miss Bella," William said as he slipped inside. I followed after him worried about what he was up to. "I'm great, thank you. How about yourself?" I swiped for the phone, but missed by a hair's breath. "Well, we, all the guys, were talking about how Edward's been hiding you away from us. We miss you, and we might even miss your cookin." I could hear her laugh from the other end of the phone. "Oh, we wouldn't want to impose. We just wanted to let you know…Are you sure?" I could see him smile, and he winked at me. "That would be great…We're not picky…Four would be perfect…Can't wait…Bye." He handed the phone back to me.
"What did he coerce you into?" I asked. She was laughing lightly.
"There was no coercion. I'll be over at 4:00 to start dinner. I need to go to the store now though," she said.
"You don't have to do this. They'll understand."
"I don't mind. I haven't cooked for everyone in a while. Is there anything you'd like?"
"Whatever you cook is going to be wonderful."
"Okay. I'll see you in a few hours. I love you." I felt my chest warm.
"I love you, too. Bye." I hung up the phone and went back to the card table. "Okay, guys, let's get this show on the road. I'm ready to kick your ass."
It had been three weeks since Bella's date, a wonderful three weeks. She, Rosalie, Alice, Jasper, and Angela graduated the week before. We all went to Rosalie's graduation where she texted with Emmett the entire time. Once her name was called, she smiled as she walked across the stage, shook all the hands extended, and ran out the door. She wasn't waiting for everyone else. The rest had chosen to only go to the hooding ceremony.
Sue, Charlie, mom, dad, and Billy had all shown up for Bella. The day had been wonderful, and seeing her so happy made me smile. Things had been going so smoothly since the trial. Jasper had cut her sessions down to only once a week, her book had been sent to a few Publishing Companies, she had already started writing a second one, and she was seriously contemplating taking the next year off to recoup and focus on writing. With the money rewarded as punitive damages, she would have enough money to support herself without having to work.
Our relationship was better than ever too. We all went to dinner after the graduation. She and Sue had gone to the bar to order drinks; Bella was still drinking non-alcoholic even though she had had no signs of illness within the last month or more. They were talking and giggling, making Charlie smile. He seemed to always worry they wouldn't get along or that Bella would feel replaced. The food arrived so I went to tell them. When I got closer, I could hear their conversation and it made me smile.
*****
"He loves you, Bells," Sue was saying. "God, it's so obvious the way he looks at you with so much love, the way he orients himself to you when you're standing. You do that with him as well, you two almost seem synched, and the way he takes care of you." Bella was blushing at this point, and if I were honest, I was blushing a bit too. I hadn't realized it was so obvious.
"I love him, Sue," Bella said. "So much more that I thought I could love anyone. For so long, I wondered if I'd ever know how to love, if I'd ever be able to love. He makes me feel things I've never felt. He's wonderful. He's perfect. I don't know how else to describe it." I walked up behind her and wrapped my arms around her waist. I kissed her chastely on the cheek.
"The food's ready, love. Why don't you and Sue go on back to the table?" I asked. "I'll bring the drinks when they're ready." I looked over at Sue to see her smiling tenderly and nodding. Bella turned around and kissed me softly.
"Are you sure? I don't mind waiting."
"No. Please go have a seat. I'm sure your father wants to spend some time with you before he heads back tonight." She looked reluctant but finally agreed. I kissed her once more before pointing her to the table.
*****
She was still just as open, playful, and affectionate. She had stayed over three more times, and I stayed with her twice since that night too. I loved waking up with her in my arms. I would lie there and watch her sleep for a few minutes. She was so peaceful, tranquil in those minutes. As wonderful as it was each time, it was also getting harder each time, pun intended.
She still talked in her sleep and moved around until she fell into that deep REM phase. She would rub up against me in the most delicious ways. Her breath would fan against my neck, and soft moans and sighs escaped her lips. She was unconsciously driving me crazy. I had to stealthily slide out of bed once to relieve myself before sliding back in to pull her close.
It was 8:30am. Alice wanted to get an early start. I finished packing my bags for the infamous 'Party Weekend' as Alice had dubbed it. She had been talking with Esme almost every day since the dinner party. Everyone was able to get the whole weekend off plus Monday so we wouldn't have to drive back until Monday night. She and mom were setting things up for the party starting tonight. They had hired people to help and the rest of us had been banned from the backyard.
I tossed my bags next to the front door and yelled for Emmett to hurry. We still had to pick up Bella and Rosalie before hitting the road. Ben and Angela were riding with Alice and Jasper in his truck. He finally emerged from his room with his bag. I grabbed mine and jogged to his jeep. We picked up the girls and finally hit the road.
Two hours later, we pulled into the driveway behind two white trucks. Alice and mom were outside directing men with large boxes of who knows what to the backyard. I grabbed Bella's bag and directed her inside. She had decided to stay with me for the weekend, and I couldn't have been happier. I was not, however, looking forward to seeing her dad. I could only imagine how that conversation was going to go.
"Hello, Isabella," my father said as he pulled her into a hug.
"Hi, Dr. C," she said while hugging him back.
"How many times do I have to say it Isabella. Please, call me Carlisle." She scrunched her nose at his suggestion.
"It just doesn't feel right. I think you may always be Dr. C in my mind." She turned around when Angela walked into the room. I saw my dad smile sadly. He really wanted her to feel comfortable and familiar with him. I walked over and hugged him.
"Hi, dad," I said. "She'll come around." He heaved a sigh.
"I hope. I just want her to be comfortable, to trust me."
"She does." He clapped a hand on my shoulder.
"I'm glad everyone is here. Your mother and Alice are driving me crazy. I considered going to the hospital for a break." We both laughed. Bella came skipping to me. "You seemed cheery."
"I am," she said. "I'm looking forward to this weekend. How about I take our bags upstairs so you can catch up with your father?"
"Bella, I didn't know you'd be staying with us," mom said as she walked up and pulled Bella into a hug. "I would have readied a guest room." Bella looked at me and flushed. I pulled her into my side.
"Bella's going to stay with me this weekend," I said. She wasn't looking at them so she didn't see mom beaming as she grabbed dad's hand and smiled up at him.
"Well, you still should have told me, Edward," mom said admonishingly. "I would have set out extra towels and things for her. I'll get those up to you as soon as I can, Bella. Alice and I are going to finish directing the workers first. Okay?"
"Oh, that's okay, Esme," Bella said finally removing her face from my chest. "I can get them. I don't want to be a bother."
"It's no bother at all, dear. You all should get settled in. Lunch will be ready in about an hour." With that, she bustled off to who knows where.
"Let's get our stuff put away," I said to Bella. She smiled and nodded.
"See you in a bit, Dr. C," she said as she kissed his cheek. Dad looked stunned for a moment. Bella had never done more than hug him briefly. He quickly composed himself and smiled brightly at her.
"Yes," was all he managed.
Bella didn't notice how happy she had just made him. She grabbed my hand and pulled me towards the stairs. I followed still holding onto her bag even though she tried to take it from me. I caught her around the waist when she stumbled on the second flight of stairs. She just laughed and stumbled the rest of the way up. We finally made it to my room, her thankfully unharmed, and I tossed the bags onto the chest at the end of the bed. Bella looked at me with a mischievous smile.
"Wanna go on the balcony?" she said. I laughed at her.
"Alice would kill us," I said. She walked over to the doors but stopped. She turned around with an adorable pout on her face. She reached for the doorknob and walked back over. She held out a piece of paper. It was a note from Alice forbidding us from going onto the balcony. I had to laugh. "Well, she sure is thorough." I pulled her into my arms and kissed her softly. "We've got an hour before lunch. What would you like to do?" She smiled wickedly before hopping up and wrapping her legs around my waist. I caught her around the waist and had to laugh.
"Oh, I can think of something." She leaned forward and attached her mouth to mine. Initiative, aggressive Bella was one of my favorite Bellas. Ever since the night of the concert, she came out to play more often.
I walked to the bed and laid her down gently scooting her up until her head rested on a pillow without breaking the kiss. Her tongue snaked out and licked my bottom lip. I opened my mouth and our tongues tangled. She tasted of chocolate I assumed from the candy bar she had eaten in the car. She pulled my tongue into her mouth and sucked. I groaned and felt myself grow hard. She spread her legs so I settled down between her thighs. She moaned at the contact and slid her feet higher before wrapping her leg around my waist.
I trailed my hand down her side and under her shirt. She shuddered when my cold hand touched her heated flesh. I inched higher until my hand rested just below her breast. She shifted trying to get my hand on her. I stayed just out of reach, and she whimpered in protest. The need to breath became acute so I moved my mouth to her slender neck. She was panting by now and shifted again moving her breast closer to my hand. She whined in protest again causing me to chuckle.
"Please," she said breathlessly. "I need to feel you." I groaned again at her needy tone.
I slid my hand behind her to the strap of her bra. I undid it quickly and moved my hand back. I palmed her naked breast, and she shivered at the contact. Her thighs clenched my waist, and her breath expelled loudly. She tilted her head back and pushed her chest harder into my touch. I ran my thumb over her nipple and smiled when the action caused her to pebble under my touch.
"Off, off," she said quietly. I stilled and started to roll off of her. She tightened her legs and her arms around my shoulders. "Not you. The shirt." I looked down at her.
"Are you sure?" I asked. She smiled and nodded. I reached down and pulled the hem of the shirt up slowly. When I reached her chest, I stilled looking at her for confirmation. She reached down and helped me pull it over her head. I reached for the straps of her navy blue bra and slowly pulled them down her arms. The color was stunning against her pale skin, a perfect complement. I never broke eye contact wanting to make sure she was okay every step of the way. I tossed the bra to the side of the bed and cupped her cheek. She was flushed and breathing heavily. "Are you okay?"
"Yes." Her voice was husky and went straight to my dick. Finally, after what felt like an eternity, I looked down at her naked chest for the first time. "Beautiful," I heard myself whisper. I leaned down and kissed just over her heart before looking up at her. "I love you."
"I love you, too," she whispered back before getting a glint in her eyes. "You're wearing too much, Dr. Cullen." Fuck me. I wanted to hear her say that more often. She reached for my shirt and quickly lifted it over my head. I smiled at her playfulness before kissing her again.
I laid my body down on hers and the feel of us skin to skin was almost overwhelming. God. It felt amazing. I could feel her erect nipples against myself with every pant and breath she took. I kissed my way down her neck and sucked on her collarbone. It was one of the sexiest places on her. Slowly I moved lower kissing every inch as I went. Her hands wound into my hair as she scratched my scalp. Pleasure coursed through me again, and I grew harder.
I thought about stopping to make sure this was okay, but I trusted Bella to stop me if she was uncomfortable. She had never let me do anything she wasn't okay with before. I swirled the tip of my tongue around her nipple, and she gasped. Her hands pulled me down closer to her. Good. She liked that. I sucked her nipple into my mouth and moved my hand to her other breast paying it due attention. She arched her back pressing her chest closer to me. I nibbled lightly eliciting mulling sounds from her. I switched to her left breast and continued feasting on her.
"Edward," she said between pants. "Oh." She shifted below me and rocked her sex into me. It felt so good, but I wanted this to be about her.
I shifted to lie beside her and moved back to kissing her. I ran my hands over her loving how responsive she was to my touch. Tentatively I ran my hand down her stomach and over her scars. She didn't shy away from my touch and it made my love for her grow. She was finally becoming comfortable with them, with me touching them. I dipped my finger into her navel and she arched into my touch. She kissed me harder before pulling away to pant. She was rubbing her legs together, and I wondered if she would be willing to going a step further. I kissed her exposed neck before moving to her ear.
"You feel so good," I said. "I know you're aching. I can help. Do you want me to?"
"Yes," she said breathlessly. "Yes. Please."
I kissed her ear before pulling her lobe between my teeth as I moved my hand lower. I felt the top of her cargo pants. I stayed above her clothing as I moved my hand lower. I could feel the heat radiating off her, and she was so wet the pants were damp to my touch. Feeling that turned me on even more, if that were possible. Her breathing became deep and labored. I cupped her pussy and rubbed slightly.
"Ungh," she moaned. Encouraged by the sound, I rubbed harder. Her legs fell open giving me better access and telling me she was indeed enjoying it. I pressed a finger where I knew her clit was. "Oh!" She tugged at my hair and pulled my mouth back to hers. The kiss was hurried, needy, and passionate. I kissed her back without stopping my stroking. I ran my finger down her lips and back up. She shifted her hips up trying to get more of my hand on her. "Edddwwwaarrddd," she moaned around my lips.
"That's it, love," I said. "Just feel." I ran my finger in circles around her clit. She bucked into my hand again then started rocking into my touch. She was going to cum. I pulled back to watch her face not wanting to miss any expression on her face.
"E-E-Ed-" she stuttered not able to say my name.
"Yes?" I asked my voice husky and deep with my own need. She reached one hand above her head and braced it on the headboard. She wrapped her other around my neck and squeezed.
"Edward?" It came out as more of a question, and I could hear the uncertainty in her voice tinged with a bit of fear. I could see it in her eyes; she didn't know what was happening.
"It's okay. It's supposed to feel like that." She looked up at me her mouth open and eyebrows scrunched in concentration. She looked down at my hand. "Look at me." She eyes darted up and locked onto mine. She was holding her impending climax off, not understanding what was happening. "Let go, love. Just feel."
I pinched her clit, and her whole body tensed. She clamped my hand in her legs, her eyes rolled into the back of her head, and then she shuddered as she whimpered my name. It was the most beautiful I'd ever seen her. I rubbed her through her orgasm until she came down from the high. She melted, and her legs fell down to the bed. Her arms went limp, the one above her head fell to the pillow, and I took her hand from around my neck pulling her hand to my mouth to kiss. I laid it on her stomach and leaned forward to kiss her. She tried to kiss me back but was spent.
"That…was…was," she hesitated.
"Good?" I asked.
"No. Wonderful. Amazing. Fucking great." I stared at her in astonishment. I'd never heard that word leave her mouth before, and damn if it didn't turn me on. I smiled after I got over the initial shock.
"You don't know how hot it was to watch you cum." She blushed an endearing pink.
"I've…I've never…" she trailed off and looked away.
"You've never had an orgasm before," I finished for her. She shook her head then buried her face in my chest. I chuckled at her sudden shyness. I felt her yawn before she curled closer to me. She was tired. She had been yawning in the car during the ride here, and I was sure that had just taken a lot out of her. I reached for the covers and eventually maneuvered them over us. "Sleep."
"Esme's going to make lunch." She was protesting, but her voice was sleepy and not very convincing. She looked over at the clock, and her eyes grew wide. "We're supposed to be down there in five minutes."
"Shhh." I pulled her back into my body. "Sleep. She won't mind. I promise." She yawned again before throwing a leg over my hip.
"Oh!" she said when she felt my erection. "What about you?" I smiled at her.
"Don't worry about me, baby. This was all about you." She looked like she was about to protest. "No arguing. You're tired. You need to get some sleep. I'll be fine."
"Are you sure?" Her words were slurring. She was so close to sleep.
"I'm sure. Sleep. I love you." She sighed but no words came.
She shifted closer into my side, and I could feel every inch of her naked flesh. It caused me to shiver and my erect cock protested. I couldn't sleep with my mind filled with images of her in the middle of an orgasm. I groaned at the thought as I throbbed in the confines of my now too-tight jeans. I slowly got out of the bed and covered her again before grabbing clothes and walking out of the room to take a shower. I closed the door quietly and turned around where Emmett was walking down the hall. He looked me over before smirking.
"What's up Eddie?" he asked with false innocence. "Other than you I mean." I pulled the clothes in front of me to hide the tent I was pitching. "Mom wanted me to come get you two for lunch."
"Bella's sleeping," I answered. His smile grew wider.
"Did you wear her out?" I narrowed my eyes at him. "Of course you did. You sly dog, you."
"I'm not a dog, and don't talk about Bella like that." He laughed.
"I'll just go wake her up. I'm sure she'd want to visit with everyone." He reached for the door, but I stepped in his way.
"You can't go in there." He quirked an eyebrow at me, but I could see the smirk he was trying to hide.
"Why? It's not like she's naked or something." I didn't know what to say, so I just stayed quiet. "Hell, Eddie. I didn't know you had it in you." I rolled my eyes at him. "Why don't you head to the shower and take care of that little problem." He pointed to my crotch. "I'll tell mom you're napping." I decided to not deal with him yet and walked off to the shower.
AN: I hope you like how the story's moving into a more playful, light tone. Soon there will be a chapter on Ben and Angela's wedding. In a review, tell me a story about your wedding or one you attended: something funny, something unique, something really special. I might be looking for something to include in the story.
Next up is more progression, the big party, and Edward's birthday. I hope you enjoy. Review, and I'll send you a sneak peek.
I'll be taking a week off, so there won't be an update next Sunday. I'm sorry. :(
