Pleasant Surprise – PART TWO

Repost of original.

"I'm sorry, come again?" Charlie spluttered.

Bella shifted in her seat nervously and gave her father a timid grin, determination seemingly having disappeared, "Tanya is Edward's cousin?"

Charlie clenched his jaw angrily, face flustered as he tried desperately to reign in the anger that surged through him, knuckles turning white as he fisted his hands at his sides. Renee remained silent but Bella knew her mother well enough to see that she too wasn't happy about the news. The brunette couldn't remember the last time she'd seen her mother look so angry, her happy and care-free smile no longer visible. Renee fisted her hands by her sides much like Charlie was and cast her narrowed eyes to the ceiling in an attempt to keep her vicious thoughts to herself.

Bella cleared her throat anxiously while at the same time glancing to her girlfriend, begging her silently for help. Tanya shook her head and leant into her ear, placing a tender kiss on the lobe.

"Be patient sweetheart." She whispered.

Both of the younger women looked up at the sound of Renee's loud exhale, Bella nervous and Tanya curious as to how the older woman would react. The blonde knew the rational response would be for Renee and Charlie to lose complete control of their temper and go off at both Tanya and Bella. But humans were unpredictable, so their reaction was unknown to the vampire.

"I really don't know what to say," All three women were surprised to hear Charlie voice his opinion first, chocolate coloured eyes hard as he gave the blonde a firm glare, "Are you taking advantage of my daughter? Because I swear if you're anything like that dickhead of a boy-"

"Charlie enough," Renee scolded firmly, eyes daring him to interrupt her. He growled under his breath but otherwise remained silent, watching as his ex-wife turned to Tanya apologetically, "Don't take any notice of Charlie; he's just a cranky old bastard."

Charlie jumped to his feet, eyes piercing furiously through his ex wife's own gaze, "Excuse me? I think I have every right to be fucking angry! You didn't have to see our girl every day after what that prick did to her!"

Bella glanced between her parents awkwardly, unsure of how to react to having them fight. She had never been witness to their arguments before or even after the divorce and if this was any indication of what they were like, then she was glad she hadn't. The brunette subconsciously pressed herself closer to her girlfriend, releasing a shaky breath at the same time. She didn't want to see them argue, especially over her but there was no way she was about to get in between them.

Renee glared at her ex-husband with undisguised annoyance, "That may very well be the case Charlie but that doesn't give you the right to lash out at Tanya over it. It isn't her fault that she's related to that arsehole."

"Understatement of the year..." He grumbled back angrily before glancing at the blonde. He sighed and ran a hand through his thick hair, "I'm sorry Tanya."

Tanya shrugged carelessly as he sat back down, a smile on her face, "Don't sweat it. I know more than anyone what an arsehole Edward is, believe me."

Bella's jealousy flared at the thought of her girlfriend having lusted after the bronze haired vampire, but more than that she hated the fact that he had hurt her by refusing her. Tanya had admitted to her one night just how undesirable Edward had made her feel by rejecting her repeatedly, herself believing that there had to be something wrong with her for him to do it. He had made her feel as though she were less then he was, as though he were far too superior to have tried a relationship with her. Edward had made Tanya feel unworthy of love and intimate affections and that didn't sit well with the brunette.

Having seen the sadness in her lover's gaze that night, Bella had showered her with a renewed sense of love and devotion, pleasuring her in ways that only the human could.

It may have been a horrible thought but for once she was grateful that Edward had been so attached to his virtue and had relentlessly denied Tanya. She could barely stomach the thought of the bronze haired vampire having ever laid hands on any part of her girlfriend's body. Tanya was hers to touch, hers to caress and hers to love. Tanya wasn't proud of her conquests over the span of her life but when she had admitted to having had hundreds of lovers to Bella, both human and vampire, it hadn't bothered the brunette at all.

Tanya was beautiful, seductive and so many other wonderful things and Bella loved her far too much to have worried about her ex-lovers. But the brunette knew without a doubt that things would have been different had Edward been in that category of ex-lovers.

As though sensing the brunette's thoughts, the blonde pat her lover's thigh reassuringly, golden eyes glancing briefly at her before the vampire gave her full attention to older humans in the room.

"I know how he treated Bella and I will never forgive him for that but the fact of the matter is, he is still family regardless of the fact that we aren't related by blood." Tanya held the brunette's hand gently between her own, "Unfortunately they are in town and will be visiting today. I don't expect you to be polite to them but you will have to tolerate them for my parent's sake."

Renee looked at her daughter in concern, "And you're alright with them visiting on your birthday?"

Bella shrugged, "I live here mum, so they would have visited eventually anyways."

"But are you okay with it?" Charlie ground out through clenched teeth, closing his eyes in frustration when he registered her small nod, "How can you be okay with it? Edward destroyed you Bella, how can you forgive him for that?"

She narrowed her eyes at his assumption, "I never said I forgave him, personally I couldn't give a shit about them visiting. I'm actually looking forward to seeing his face when he finds out I'm in love with Tanya."

Tanya chuckled heartily, "Oh yes that's going to be classic!"

"Yes...well," Renee sighed reluctantly, the anger still present in her eyes, "When can we expect them?"

Tanya grinned and listened easily to the sounds that bathed the surrounding property, the sound of three purring cars approaching from the turn off point to their drive way.

"I'd say probably 5 minutes or so." Tanya gave them an apologetic smile, "Try not to be too hard on them please."

"Our qualm isn't with the Cullen family, it's with Edward. And I'll be damned if I'm going to be polite to that little shit." Charlie's hand automatically went to his belt, where he would usually have had his gun, "Too bad I don't have my bloody gun..."

It's a shame it wouldn't even dint him, Bella thought with an inward smirk. Instead she smiled and shook her head, "Now now dad. Let's not be like that okay? Try to be civil at the very least. If not for the Denali's then do it for me. Please? Edward means absolutely nothing to me anymore and that's not going to change anytime soon."

He hesitated as he took in his daughter's words, sighing heavily in defeat soon after, "Okay...I'll be civil for you but only because it's your birthday." He ran a hand through his hair and got to his feet, "I need a coffee."

Without another word he made his way into the kitchen, heavy boots clapping on the tiled floor almost angrily. Renee sighed and gave the two girls an apologetic smile. She stood slowly, "I could do with one as well, what about you girls?"

"No thank you Renee. Bella?"

The brunette in question shook her head, "No thanks mum."

Tanya remained silent until Renee disappeared around the corner, grinning mischievously once she had, the blonde hooked her hands under Bella's thighs and lifted her effortlessly into her lap. Bella giggled as she straddled her girlfriend and placed her hands around her neck, almost moaning as Tanya gave her arse a tender squeeze, "Do you know how sexy you are when you're angry? Dear god, if you could smell my arousal right now! I'm having a hard time keeping my hands to myself in front of your parents." Tanya grinned and squeezed a little rougher, "Do you know what I want to do to you right now?"

The human's heart rate sped up despite herself and the sweet perfume that was her arousal wafted deliciously up the vampire's nose, "What do you want to do to me baby?"

Tanya inhaled deeply, letting loose a quiet guttural moan and brought her dark gaze to her lover's, "I want to lay you down on this couch...right here," The vampire did exactly that and gently laid the brunette against the cushions, gazing down at her in hunger. The blonde ran a finger along the waist band of her track pants, dipping slightly, "I want to bury my face between your legs and lick your sweet pussy until you scream my name to the high heavens."

The brunette moaned loudly at her girlfriend's words, tugging her down so that the vampire's body covered her own entirely. Tanya didn't hold back and quickly brought her mouth to her lover's, kissing her for all she was worth. Her blonde hair spilled over them, curtaining their dancing tongues from prying eyes as hands groped desperately and hips thrust subtly to their own rhythm.

To both of the lovers surprise it was Bella who managed to regain some of her control and common sense back, reluctantly realising that now was neither the time nor the place. Her human body craved the blonde's gentle touch, her heart thrummed frantically with her need and her panties dampened drastically with each passing second but she knew they needed to stop. Nothing killed the mood like thinking of your parents.

With a groan of frustration, the human brought her hand to her lover's shoulder and pushed roughly with the knowledge that the vampire wouldn't feel it otherwise. Tanya reluctantly pulled her mouth from Bella's, dark eyes peering down at her with growing frustration.

Bella's face was flushed, heart pounding within her ribs frantically, "My parents Tan," She panted quietly, reaching up to run her hands through the golden locks above her, "We need to stop."

The blonde sighed heavily, eyes rolling in her head as she collapsed on her girlfriend. She nuzzled the human's throat almost pleadingly, "I hate you. Do you know that?"

The brunette chuckled breathlessly and continued to run her petite fingers through her girlfriend's hair, "I love you too baby, now get off me before Renee or Charlie walks in."

"Too late," Bella froze as her mother's amused voice rang through the otherwise quiet room, startling the vampire at the same moment. Both of the younger women hesitantly looked over to where Renee stood, smirk on her slightly aged face, "Having fun girls?"

The brunette blushed horribly while the blonde above her giggled, "Oh Renee we definitely did! We could do with a few more minutes though."

"Tanya!" Bella gasped in mortification, eyes wide and mouth agape. The blonde grinned and pecked her lips quickly, jumping backwards as the human's hand shot out with the intention of causing harm. The brunette glared at her giggling girlfriend as she got back into a sitting position on the couch, "Don't do that in front of my mother."

Renee chuckled as she strolled in, a mischievous glint in her eyes, "Relax Bella, do you honestly think I'm ignorant of the fact that you have sex with Tanya?" Renee sat down opposite them and took another sip from her coffee, peering at them over her coffee mug, "You don't need to be embarrassed about showing your affections for each other in front of us."

"I know...its just awkward okay? You're my mother." The brunette smiled apologetically at Renee, and clasped her hands together in her lap, "I'm not embarrassed about the fact that Tanya and I have sex but...I don't need to rub in your face or Charlie's for that matter."

Her mother understood and gave her a small smile and a nod, "That's fine sweetheart but just keep what I said in mind." She placed her coffee mug on the table, "Your father and I love you and we just want you to be happy. Tanya makes you happy so why hide that?"

It was then that Charlie came back in, a beer in his hand and a scowl on his face. He switched the sports channel on and sat down in the sofa chair with a sigh. It was only when the silence continued that he glanced over at his daughter and her amused girlfriend, "Did I miss something?"

Tanya laughed, "No not at all Charlie." She eyed the beer in his hand with a grin, "Coffee good?"

He shrugged sheepishly and tipped the bottle in her direction, "Needed something stronger than coffee."

She nodded with a smile and Charlie looked back to the game satisfied that he wasn't about to get chastised for helping himself. Renee on the other hand watched with a small smile as the tall blonde woman pulled Bella into her lap, wrapping her in a gentle and loving embrace as though her daughter were a fragile piece of art.

"They're here." Tanya whispered the words into the brunette's ear and hugged her closer to her body.

When the front door swung open the atmosphere changed almost immediately. The three human's were oblivious to their own scents and the reactions those scents had to unsuspecting vampires...but Tanya wasn't. She heard the shocked inhaled breaths, felt the quake of their quiet growls when that one particular scent registered immediately in their minds; Bella's unique scent.

She could practically see their faces now. The blonde grinned at the visual.

For a few seconds none of the three human's registered the Cullen's arrival but once they had, the scene shifted immediately from a content gathering to one of intense anxiousness. Charlie's face hardened immediately as he sat forward in the chair, preparing for the confrontation that he knew was unavoidable. After all, they had hurt his daughter immensely and Edward wouldn't be leaving without knowing just how badly he had fucked up and hurt his daughter.

Renee simply inhaled deeply, crossed her legs and set her expression into one of passiveness as she awaited their arrival.

Bella didn't even tense as she registered the front door open, opting instead to snuggle closer into her girlfriends lap. Tanya hummed in anticipation and kissed her mates forehead lovingly, listening as the vampires walked cautiously down the hallway toward them.

Time seemed to stand still as the family of seven vampires tip-toed behind the Denali's, following them into the living room where Tanya and the three humans were seated. All seven of the Cullen's seemed to freeze at the same moment, gasps wrenching from their throats as their eyes landed on the brunette perched happily in the coven leader's lap.

Carmen and Eleazar simply took a seat beside the content couple as though nothing were out of the ordinary, which for them it wasn't, while Irina and Laurent smirked in silent amusement and leant up against the wall to the side.

Tanya's instincts demanded that she stand before the larger coven and greet them like a leader should but she knew that to the older humans it would raise questions, questions she technically wasn't allowed to answer. Instead she allowed her gaze to settle on that of Edward Cullen's, a taunting smirk finding its way onto her face as she registered the confusion and disbelief that swirled within his.

Eleazar knew the responsibility was his and cleared his throat calmly, "I'm sure you all remember Charlie Swan and Renee Dwyer?"

As though only just noticing them, each of the Cullen's spared them a glance, eyes widening slightly before turning their confused gaze back to the blonde and the brunette who snuggled together intimately on the couch.

"And of course you remember Bella." Eleazar smiled awkwardly, eyes dancing with nervousness.

Carmen sensing the awkwardness and wanting nothing to do with it, grabbed her husband's hand and stood at a careful human pace. She smiled at both Renee and Charlie, taking in their tense posture with concern, "Charlie, Renee? Perhaps you would like to come for a walk? I haven't showed you our beautiful yard yet, you'll absolutely adore it."

Neither Renee nor Charlie were stupid and reluctantly took the hint, standing to their feet and hesitantly following the married couple. With one last glance at their daughter, they both disappeared around the corner and not a minute later the backdoor closed quietly, signalling their departure.

Nobody seemed to move and Bella began to grow irritated at the lack of response from those she had once called family. Tanya stroked her back lovingly to calm her but her eyes remained on Edward, watching the emotions flicker across his face with amusement as she replayed every touch, caress and kiss she had shared with Bella.

She made sure to keep any thoughts of her girlfriend's naked body from her mind, not wanting the mind reader to see what was reserved for her eyes only.

Disbelief, shock, hurt, anger, fury, embarrassment, humiliation, disgust; there were so many emotions running through him but the one she could read the clearest was his anger.

Tanya nudged Bella gently and together they got to their feet, fingers entwined as they stood close by one another. Whether it was for support, comfort or protection, it didn't seem matter.

"Hello again Cullen's, it's been far too long." Tanya broke the silence and smiled, waiting for a response but getting none in return. Their eyes were focused on Bella and it seemed that nothing was about to break their concentration or lack thereof.

Bella giggled, "Vampire's in shock? Well I'll be fucked."

All seven pairs of eyes widened significantly at the crude word, mouths parting in disbelief as Tanya merely laughed and nodded in agreement, "Can't say I've seen anything like it before."

Carlisle stepped forth, eyes full of confusion and movement uncontrolled, "I...I'm confused."

He didn't know what else to say, he seemed to be unable to speak. Tanya grinned in amusement as did Bella, both of their eyes shifting between all seven of the Cullen's but never staying on one for too long.

"I'm sorry, where are my manners?" Tanya shook her head in amusement and pulled Bella closer to her body. She glanced at the bronze haired vampire who had manipulated her sweet brunette and grinned smugly, "This is Bella...my mate."

That did it.

The house shook with Edward's snarl and gone was the gentlemen they had all once known and the boy Bella had stupidly allowed to manipulate her and deceive her, the boy she had once found perfectly attractive.

"You dirty, filthy whore!" His fisted his hands, body trembling with nothing but raw hatred. He glared scathingly at the grinning blonde who had HIS mate in her arms, willing the blonde to burn to ash, "How dare you? You conniving, manipulative-"

Irina growled warningly, "Finish that sentence arsehole and I'll kick you out myself! Understood?"

Both she and Laurent came to stand behind Tanya and the brunette, black eyes trained on the arrogant and disrespectful vampire with undisguised contempt. They bared their teeth in warning and squared their shoulders defensively, daring him to continue his sentence.

Edward cared nothing for respect and snarled in defiance, lunging for the blonde woman. It was then that Carlisle snapped out of his state of shock, quickly racing in front of his eldest son to block his path. He braced his hands against his son's shoulders as Emmett appeared behind the out of control vampire, wrapping him in a vice-like grip.

Edward hissed and growled threateningly but neither took notice.

"Enough!" Carlisle ordered, standing up straighter to block Edward's view of the other coven, his eyes hard and dangerous. Edward faltered slightly but hissed once more, seemingly unaffected, "Edward enough! This is not like you. Emmett take your brother far from this house and the three humans until he has calmed down. Jasper you go with them." Carlisle pointed at his eldest son with a stern expression, "I will join you shortly. Behave until then."

Jasper took a hold of Edward's arm, pushing out wave after wave of calm until he felt his brother slacken slightly. With Emmett's help, they both dragged a struggling Edward out the front door and into the forest.

Carlisle turned around, his eyes still hard as he glared at the coven leader opposite him, "What is the meaning of this Tanya?"

Tanya narrowed her eyes in warning, "Watch your tongue old friend because I won't hesitate in kicking you out of my house."

The two leaders' continued to glare at one another, neither prepared to back down and allow the other control. The brunette sighed and stroked her girlfriend's hand softly, "Tanya be nice."

"I am being nice. I'm giving him an option." She didn't break her gaze from the blonde male.

Bella rolled her eyes and stepped in front of her blonde, successfully blocking the vampire's view of the others and subsequently breaking her eye contact with Carlisle. Tanya growled and cast her eyes into the brown ones of her mate, telling her without words to move. But Bella was stubborn.

"No Tanya. Remember what you told me earlier? Carlisle is a friend of yours, so please don't do anything you'll regret."

Tanya kept up her gaze stubbornly but sighed in defeat when she realised she would never win against her mate. She loved her to much for that. Bella smiled and kissed her softly before turning around and allowing the blonde to wrap her arms around her from behind. More so for the vampire's sake then her own.

Tanya nuzzled the back of her neck contentedly, inhaling her scent and calming her temper.

Bella smiled at the remainder of the Cullen's and relaxed into her girlfriend's embrace, "Long time no see."

Carlisle clenched his jaw but his eyes softened as they landed on the brunette, "Bella...I don't know what to say. I've never been speechless before."

"Well a hello would be nice, I mean it has been six whole years."

Tanya reluctantly released her girlfriend from her embrace and no sooner had she let her go, had her mate been practically tackled to the ground by an overly excited Alice. Alice squealed and cried, and laughed, and giggled and Bella couldn't help but do the exact same as she hugged her best friend. Only difference being that Bella actually had tears in her eyes.

"Oh my god Bella! I've missed you so much! I totally didn't see this coming! You look amazing! Is that designer clothing?" Alice continued to ramble even after she had pulled back, a wide smile on her pixie like face.

Bella could only laugh and hold up her hand, "Whoa there girl, I can't understand a word your saying!"

Alice stopped almost immediately before squealing once more and hugging her again, bouncing on the spot, "I've missed you so much Bella!"

The others watched on in amusement, worries momentarily forgotten as they watched the scene play out. Even Rosalie sported a small smile, insignificant compared to the others.

When Alice had finally forced herself to pull away, Esme was waiting not far behind, smiling in delight at the beautiful brunette, "Oh Bella, it's been far too long!"

Bella happily wrapped her arms around the motherly vampire, hugging her ferociously as she relished in the feeling of the familiar arms around her. A sense of belonging washed through her and it was only now that she realised just how much she had missed the overly caring vampire.

"I missed you Esme, especially your hugs. Nothing can beat one of your hugs." Bella murmured softly as she inhaled the vampire's sweet scent. It was so calming and pure that she couldn't help but do it again, "You smell good too. I missed that."

Esme giggled softly and pulled back, stroking the brunette's cheek lovingly, "Oh sweetie, I missed you too. You look lovely dear, absolutely beautiful. You've gone and grown up on me."

Laurent scoffed in amusement, "In more ways than one..."

Tanya growled in warning at her sister's mate when she noticed Bella blush, "Don't embarrass her Laurent. Honestly, I haven't seen her blush as much as she has done today."

"It is pretty funny though huh?" Irina mused, admiring the blush on the human's face with intrigue, "I haven't seen her blush in years. It's cute."

Bella giggled and sent her mate's sister a flirtatious wink, "I'd say you were cute too but that's definitely not the case. Laurent showed me an amazingly sexy photo that just shoots cute right out the window."

Irina's eyes widened and Tanya laughed loudly, slapping Laurent on the back, "Oh you are in so much trouble!"

Laurent retreated slowly, hands up in surrender as his wife growled and glared at him, "You showed Bella naked pictures of me?"

"What? No, of course not! You weren't naked."

Bella scoffed and a smile found its way onto her face, "Might as well have been naked. If I weren't so in love with Tanya's amazing arse, I'd have trouble keeping my hands off yours Irina."

Irina smiled at the compliment, husband forgotten, as she danced over and wrapped the brunette in a hug, "Aww you're just so sweet Bella." She pulled back, smile morphed into an amused smirk, "And you can touch my arse whenever you like sweet cheeks."

Bella simply smiled smugly and kissed Irina's cheek, tapping the vampire's arse for added effect. Irina let out a playful moan but ruined it by laughing half way through, a wide smile on her face. Tanya rolled her eyes at their antics and stepped up beside her mate when she noticed Rosalie make a move toward the brunette.

Bella's smile faltered but with her girlfriend beside her, she managed to stop her body from trembling at the sight of Cullen who had never been fond of her and quite frankly scared the living shit out of her.

Rosalie didn't say anything at first and instead brought her gaze onto Tanya, beautiful golden eyes narrowed. They stared each other off for no longer than five seconds before Rosalie shifted her gaze onto the brunette, "You always were a magnet for danger Bella. Though I will admit it's nice to hear that your heart still beats."

That was the nicest comment that Bella could hope for from the blonde Cullen and chose to give her a nod rather than reply. It wouldn't be wise to mention that she didn't plan to stay human for much longer.

Rosalie took her place at Alice's side, choosing to ignore the disappointed glare sent her way. She crossed her arms and picked at her perfect nails as though inspecting an imperfection there, seemingly ignoring everything else going on around her.

Carlisle cleared his throat and gave Tanya a hard stare, "I believe an explanation is in order."

Tanya sneered but otherwise kept the malice from her tone, "Now is not the time, I'm afraid Carlisle. As you very well noticed, Charlie and Renee are outside this minute growing angrier and angrier. They will no doubt have something to say to each of you. When and where they chose to do that is not of my concern."

Shame flittered across each of their faces and reluctantly Rosalie lowered her arms to her sides. Esme cupped Carlisle's face lovingly, placing a tender kiss on his lips as she murmured something privately to him. It seemed to have the desired effect as his eyes softened, his posture relaxed and a small smile formed on his face.

"Of course love." Carlisle then glanced at the blonde coven leader across from him and gave her a tight smile, "Perhaps my family and I should book a couple of rooms at the hotel for our stay?"

Tanya sighed and shook her head, "Don't be ridiculous. There are more than enough rooms here for you to stay in. This is a mansion for goodness sakes."

"Though that may be..." He murmured awkwardly, adjusting the collar of his shirt, "We don't want to make you uncomfortable." His eyebrows drew together in confusion, "Actually if you don't mind my asking Bella, why are Charlie and Renee here?"

"It's my twenty-forth birthday and due to work, I couldn't fly out to see them. That's way too many flights for my liking." Bella physically shuddered at the thought of being stuck on those planes for hours. The sweat, the heat, the old leering men who smelt like stale urine...that was definitely something she wanted to avoid.

"Oh, well happy birthday then my dear." Carlisle smiled warmly but his discomfort was obvious and Tanya couldn't help but smile in amusement.

"You needn't worry about Charlie and Renee. Though Edward is a different story entirely, I wouldn't allow them to be alone with him. Our secret would be revealed when the bullet shattered against him." Tanya stroked Bella's lower back gently, ignoring the shame on that showed on the Cullen's faces, "I believe it would be best to have the discussion about how this came to be after Charlie and Renee fly out tomorrow night. Today is my mate's birthday and we want to celebrate in a happy environment, so I would suggest that you talk some sense into your son."

"I will speak with him but I can make no promises."

Tanya growled, "If he cannot behave then he leaves. I will not have him ruining Bella's birthday. This is our house, not his and he will not make my mate uncomfortably. Is that understood Carlisle?"

Carlisle narrowed his eyes but otherwise gave a stiff nod. He placed his hand on Esme's back and guided her toward the stairs, "I will leave through the bedroom window upstairs so that Charlie and Renee believe us to be settling in."

Irina glided forth with a small smile, hand placed in Laurent's larger one, "We'll show you to your rooms." Irina grinned over her shoulder at the brunette beside her sister, "Wouldn't want you accidently going into the happy couple's room and finding their stash of naughty toys."

The Cullen's didn't know how to react, staring at their cousin with disbelieving eyes.

Tanya chuckled quietly at both her sisters teasing and the expression on the other coven's faces, wrapping her arms around the grinning brunette, "You're just jealous that our toys are better than yours."

Alice's giggle rang through the room, hand over her mouth as she tried desperately to muffle it.

"I don't need any goddamn toys because my husband has the real thing." Irina poked her tongue out, wriggling it around suggestively in her sister's direction, "He is the king of pussy licking."

The dark skinned vampire smirked at the compliment, "Why thank you baby."

They kissed sweetly for a moment before Carlisle cleared his throat loudly from behind them, mouth downturned, "Can you show us to our rooms please?"

Carlisle, Esme, Rosalie and Alice followed Irina and Laurent up the stairs, suitcases in hand and Alice with the only smile in place. Once they had disappeared from view Tanya turned to her girlfriend and gave her a loving kiss, "As you can see, we aren't as reserved as the Cullen family when it comes to our sex lives." She rolled her eyes, "They like to pretend that they're human and therefore cannot hear what others are doing in the privacy of their own rooms."

Bella pecked her lips once more, almost admonishingly, "Be nice Tanya. There's nothing wrong with that."

"Says the human." The blonde leant down and kissed her adoringly, hands cupping either side of her face, "But I love my sweet, beautiful human regardless."

"I love you more." The brunette murmured sweetly in response, smile gracing her features. She laced her fingers with the vampire's and tugged her toward the couch, settling comfortably in her lap, "So what are we going to do today?"

"For your birthday?"

"Yes obviously." Bella rolled her eyes with a grin.

The blonde placed a tender kiss on the back of her neck and hummed thoughtfully, "Your parents, you and I are going to go for a little trek through the forest to where your obscenely large present resides." Tugging the brunette's head backwards, she kissed her and successfully cut off the complaints she knew her girlfriend would make, "It's more for all of us rather than just you Bella, so please don't worry. I have something much more beautiful and special to give you later tonight."

"You don't need to buy me expensive presents Tanya, I only need you." Bella's words were whispered against the vampire's lips, chocolate coloured eyes peering devotionally into the golden ones, "I love you, not your money. I don't know how many times I have to tell you that."

"I know sweetheart and that is why what I plan on giving you tonight is so special. It didn't cost me a dime but at the same time it is worth more to me than any obscene amount of money could." Tanya pecked her lips once more before allowing the brunette to go back to her previous position, comfortably against her, "Trust me Bella, you'll absolutely adore it."

Both women sat in a comfortable silence for the next few minutes, revelling in the peace and serenity that came with being in each other's arms. Warmth spread through the brunette's body, love swelling within her heart as the vampire placed small kisses on the back of her neck. She alternated between her lips and tongue, massaging the flesh in a loving gesture full of nothing but devotion.

The sensation proved to be too much and it was only when her girlfriend's ministrations stopped that Bella opened her eyes and groaned in annoyance. Tanya chuckled and pointed in the direction where the only other two humans had disappeared in, "Your parents are back."

No sooner had she said the words, did Charlie and Renee walk through into the living room, frowns disappearing minutely as they took in the practically empty room.

They had expected at least some kind of confrontation with one of the Cullen family members.

Renee rose an eyebrow in her daughter's direction, asking silently as to where the Cullen's had disappeared to but got only a small smile in return. The smile calmed the mother's nerves slightly but still there was the nagging feeling that told her something was bothering her daughter, she just couldn't figure out what.

Charlie scratched his thick head of hair in confusion, craning his neck to look toward the staircase, "Where'd the Cullen's go off too?"

Tanya grinned at the clear disappointment in his tone and Renee rolled her eyes at her ex-husband's less then subtle antics.

Bella pointed toward the ceiling to indicate the spare rooms upstairs, giggling as Charlie grunted in something between displeasure and relief, collapsing on the sofa and picking up his unfinished beer from earlier.

"Bloody lucky, thought they'd run off again like cowards. They don't get to leave until I've torn into that little shit of a son of theirs."

He mumbled the bitter words under his breath but regardless, every vampire in the house heard them and Tanya could only let out an inward laugh, agreeing wholeheartedly.
