Moongirl75, Pearl1999 and SLKerouac thank you for your lovely reviews! I just had to write the next chapter immediately because I got a lot of inspiration from you.

EPOV

"This is Jasper's room." Bella took everyone into the design room which now looked like what I hoped was the way my brother would have decorated it. Jasper gave Alice, Bella and me a wry look. "Hope I don't leave around half eaten food" He grimaced remembering the smell of the half eaten hamburger in the game room.

"What a lovely room" Renee went over to touch the painting on the wall which had replaced Alice's fashion models. My mother gave me a questioning look. And I smiled at her apologetically. They were all still a bit puzzled as to why Bella, Alice and I had created rooms for Jasper and Emmett.

"I see you like guns. This looks like a very old specimen" Charlie's interest was caught with Jasper's rifle.

"Yes it was used by the confederation army during the civil war" Jasper proudly showed Charlie his rifle.

"That's interesting. Do you have any others?" Charlie asked curious.

"No only this one." Jasper smiled sadly. Renee looked at the history books and then the uniform.

"Looks like you are a fan of the civil war era." Renee smiled at him.

"Yes m'am." Jasper drawled.

"He likes to pretend he's from that era." Jasper gave Bella a funny look. Of course he didn't have to pretend.

"Oh I see. That's why you have that accent and manners. Well that's nice. I love history."

Renee continued. It was then that I realised that she had found Jasper's behaviour a bit odd. Come to think of it although we had got used to it even Jaspers accent and manners were some what out of place or should I say out of time. He hadn't had as much exposure to humans as we had so he was not as good as us at playing the charade.

Before we could distract him Charlie opened the curtain in the fitting room and saw the mannequin. He thought it odd but then again he decided that teenagers now a days had weird habits. He shuddered to think that Jasper liked pleasing himself while looking at a mannequin. Oh shit.

"That's Alice's mannequin Charlie. Alice uses Jasper's computer system to do her designs so she keeps her mannequin in here." Charlie grunted relieved that his daughter was not going to live with a madman. We exited the studio and went to the room next door.

"This is my room." An excited little voice chimed. Alice had hung all the fashion model photos in her room and put extra flowers. She had artfully draped some of her hand woven throws on chairs. I could tell Renee was impressed with Alice's room and even Charlie commented that it looked nice. Alice was beaming. But to my surprise she didn't show them her wardrobe. At my questioning look she showed me the vision she had of them discovering Jasper's clothes in her wardrobe. Oh.

Then we climbed up the stairs to the third floor where my room was located with Esme's and Carlisle's room along with the guest bedroom.

We all walked into Carlisle and Esme's room.

"Wow what a lovely room. It looks like something out of an Austen novel."

Renee exclaimed but she didn't think much about it to my relief. It was clear she loved this room. Esme had roses as her main theme and it did in fact resemble our former homes. She had kept most of the furniture which could now be considered as antiques. She hadn't changed much over the years.

I was both excited and worried about what Bella's parents would think of my room. It was my private sanctuary where I was free to be me. I had modern furnishings except for my writing desk which belonged to my father. This room held memories of over hundred years of my existence.

As we walked in Alice suddenly rushed to one of my racks and grabbed hold of a photo, it was the last photo I had taken with my parents, the next minute it was replaced with one of Bella and me. I gave Alice a questioning look. "You were in it and look just like you do now. You are supposed to have been adopted by Carlisle and Esme when you were small."

It was a close save since right after that Renee picked up the other photograph the one with only my parents in it.

"Is this your mother Edward, she looks a lot like you, I can see where you got your good looks." Renee told me with sympathetic eyes. I gathered that she had heard that I was an orphan.

"Thank you." I couldn't help the sadness I felt. If my mother was here today she would have loved meeting Bella and her parents. She would have been so proud that I was getting married. I still missed them even after so many years.

"Why are they dressed this way?" It was only then that I remembered how outdated their clothing was.

"Edward, didn't you tell us that they went to a fancy dress ball which required them to wear Victorian garb where this photo was taken?" Alice piped in.

"Yes. It was the last photo taken of them before ….before…" I couldn't finish the sentence. There was a lump in my throat and I couldn't talk. How I wished they could be here today. I felt someone tap me on the shoulder consoling me. I turned in surprise because the touch was warm and met Charlie's sympathetic look. "The kid looks lost. Must have been hard on him to have lost both parents." Charlie was a good man. I'm lucky to have him as my future father in law.

"They look very authentic." Renee looked at me and gave me a sad smile. I nodded yes.

"It's quite a collection of records you've got here Edward." Charlie changed the topic and was now staring in amazement at my music collection.

"Yes. Edward loves music. He plays the piano really well. In fact he composed a lullaby for Bella." Esme proudly told him.

"Yes you should get him to play for you Charlie, he's amazing." Renee said beaming at me.

"Such a big bed." Charlie shook his head as if to get rid of the image he got of me and Bella in that bed.

Charlie and Renee were admiring my gramophone when I felt Bella cupping me there! Oh my god… I instantly got hard. She gave me a triumphant half smile. My angel was teasing me and I loved it. I was just thinking of returning the favour when I caught Emmett's thoughts Emmett was replaying the way Bella had touched my crotch in disbelief. Oh god not Emmett. I quickly scanned everyone else's minds including Charlie's and no one seemed to have noticed Bella touching me.

Charlie was looking through my baseball memorabilia and seemed absorbed in it.

"So you like baseball?" "At least I can talk to the kid about baseball. No porn. The kid seems like a decent fellow." He remembered how he had heard that I had never dated anyone except for Bella. Charlie was making a big effort to get to know me.

"Yes Charlie we play whenever we can make it. Bella joins us from time to time." I replied.

"Bella loves cupping… I mean catching balls". Emmett piped in giving me and Bella one of his looks. Bella turned beet red and I was mortified. Alice giggled. Luckily except for Alice no one really took much note of what he said. I pulled Bella in front of me to cover my erection.

"Bella playing baseball." Charlie laughed out loud imagining how clumsy Bella had been the last time he had tried to play with her.

"She specially likes playing with Edward's bat." What? Emmett was wriggling his eyebrows at me. This time the other vampire's in the room understood what he was talking about. Renee gave me a secretive smile of approval and looked at Charlie. I could tell she was worried that Charlie might understand what Emmett was talking about and she wasn't really sure what his reaction to that would be. I was surprised at Renee's easy acceptance of me.

"This is the guest room." Esme quickly distracted Charlie showing him out of my room and into the guest room located in the same floor. I gave my mother a grateful smile. Everyone else followed.

Once the tour was complete Alice took everyone to the living room to go through the wedding files again. Emmett put on a baseball game and he and Charlie started watching it. This was my opportunity to have some alone time with Bella. I gave Alice a questioning look to check whether it was ok. She smiled at me giving me the go ahead I needed.

I met Bella's eyes and silently asked her to follow me. As soon as we were out of sight of the living room I grabbed hold of Bella and rushed to my room. My sweet girl clung to me seeking my mouth even as I ran. Once I closed the bedroom door I pulled her against me deepening the kiss. We had forty minutes according to Alice and if we were going to make the best of it we had to be fast. I quickly removed Bella's clothing. I was so absorbed in kissing her that I didn't realise that anything was wrong until Bella's squeak of surprise. She pulled away from me covering herself. Half drugged with her kisses and my own arousal I barely managed to open my eyes and stare at her in surprise.

"Edward!" Bella looked embarrassed covering her breasts with one hand and the other over her core and I could feel the sheering heat from her body. Her very naked body! Oh my god! What had I done?

"I'm so sorry Bella… what was I thinking…here" I quickly ran to the bed dragged the comforter off and covered Bella with it. I was beyond mortified. I'd removed a young girl's clothes without asking her first. Being her fiancé did not give me the right to compromise her modesty hurting her sensibilities. I'd behaved like a cad. I covered my face with my hands in my shame. How could she ever forgive me for this? Will she ever want to be with me again? What kind of a monster was I? How could I do this. I felt a sudden tug on my forearm. I looked up shamefully. I couldn't meet her eyes. What will I see in them? I was sure they held revulsion.

"Edward Cullen, take off your clothes this instant!" Bella screamed at me. WHAT? She was tugging at my shirt collar now trying to undo my buttons.

"Bella…I'm…" I barely got a word out.

"Get out of those clothes!" I stood perfectly still, still not able to understand. She wants me naked?

"What? Now you feel shy? Well get over it." Huh? I heard chuckles from downstairs. Emmett said something about a sexy dominatrix and I tuned him out. I was in enough trouble without having to listen to him making fun of me. Bella looked annoyed and frustrated still struggling with my buttons. I took my shirt off and then my trousers. In an instant her hands were already dragging my briefs down. Now I was standing stark naked in front of a Bella covered from top to bottom in the heavy comforter. I felt defenceless and embarrassed. I barely resisted the urge to cover myself with my hands knowing this is how Bella must have felt when I took her clothes off while I was still dressed. I had to be brave enough to be able to face this.

"There.. was that so difficult?" She gave me a smug smile giving me a hot glance from the top of my head to my feet. Edward junior was fully aroused. I was turned on by the way Bella was taking control.

"Yes. Was that so difficult Edward?" Emmett's gruff voice said from the otherside of the door. Bella looked horrified. She came to me covering me with the comforter pulling me close to her.

"Oh shit Edward. Did he hear me?" Bella whispered in my ear. We heard another chuckle from the otherside of the door.

"Go away Emmett we are busy." I was more annoyed than embarrassed now. Bella tried to pull away reaching for her clothes.

"Bella they all heard us. Remember I told you there are no secrets in the family?"

"But..they'll know.." Bella was still whispering.

"It's ok. We have to learn to live with it love. Now we only have a few minutes more and I want you.." My voice came out as a throaty whisper when I said the last few words. Bella immediately snuggled closer to me. I lifted her up with the comforter and laid her down on the bed. I was not going to let my embarrassment of having my family hearing what we were doing get in the way of our special moment together.

"Can I love?" I held the corner of the comforter preparing to pull it off of Bella.

"You first" Bella whispered.

"Yes. You first Edward." The voice from the other side of the door said. All of a sudden there was a sound like someone had knocked another on his on the head and a muttered 'Oww Rose that hurts' from Emmett. Then I heard Rose's footsteps dragging Emmett down the stairs. Finally!

I lay down next to Bella and slowly removed the comforter covering me. I felt vulnerable exposed like this but it was for my Bella. Bella sat on the bed with the comforter still covering her and ran her hands on my chest planting soft kisses along the way. She moved down slowly and one finger traced me from the base to tip. Heaven…

The next chapter will most likely be the last in this story. I will be writing the wedding and the honeymoon as a new story. There are loads of fun things that could happen during the preparations. After all we've got vampires, humans and wolves all working together. That should definitely be interesting. Please review and let me know what you thought of this story and what you would like to read in the next story covering the wedding and the honeymoon. And of course this lemon will be continued in the next chapter. So lots of smut coming up!:)

I would love to have 300 reviews up for this story before I complete. It is only through the reviews that I can know whether you like the way the story is going and any new things you want me to include. So I hope to hear from you.
