Addiction
Unknown POV
Sitting in my home I knew that it was only a matter of time before Edward Cullen figured out it was me behind the embezzling and hopefully the very destruction to not only the Masen Corporation but the family as well. They didn't deserve anything they had and I was going to be the one to rid them of it all. I smiled because finding people to help wasn't as hard as one would have thought, either money talked or just Edward being a dick made then turn on him in a flash. I will admit the stopping to the last transaction put a little halt in my plans but manipulating Maria covered the cost perfectly.
The woman was obviously one to be put in a patted white room and left there but I needed her as a distraction for Edward. I picked up my pack of smokes and pulled a cigarette out. I had to decide what my next move would be and I needed to stay discreet because I had a feeling Edward was catching on. When he hired that damn Volutri I thought I would be caught for sure, but paying Aro off was a rather easy task since it meant he would be getting paid from me and Edward. My private line rung and I looked at the caller ID seeing it was Maria.
"Hello."
"Hi I was letting you know I was back in Illinois, I'm staying in Maywood."
She says and I know that she's not far from Esme and Carlisle's place if she is in Maywood. It was a suburb outside of Chicago and the best way for her to stay close but hidden.
"Did you find anything out?"
"Not much other then what we already knew."
She replies and I light my cigarette and take a drag from it. I knew I needed to quick but I had entirely too much going on to be worried about quitting right now.
"Fine. He'll be out of town the next two weeks."
I inform her and she exhales into the phone, "Is he going with her?" she said spitting the word her as if it was poison. Maria's obsession with Edward was sickening.
"No work related, but I found out he took off the last two weeks of August."
I reply and she growls into the phone, "I told you I would help you, but you need to get that little bitch away from my Edward." She tells me and I inhale a deep breath.
"Maria I can't make him do anything. You tried that before and look where it got you."
I remind her, "Whatever. So I received my check from them do you need anything else?" She asked and I tell her what I need her to do and she agrees like I knew she would. We discuss a few more plans in not so much detail.
"Just tell me one thing, are they as serious as the media makes them appear or is she like the rest of them?"
"He seems more serious about her then the others Maria, that's why it is not going to be an easy task breaking them up."
I reply and the phone is silent, "The more we damage his precious company the sooner he'll leave her like he did me. Only this time I will get him back, I have to." She says and I ignore her rant on and on about how much she loved Edward because I honestly didn't give a fuck. After I finish talking to her I hang up the phone and call Aro next to see if he had anything new to tell me.
"You know he doesn't trust you from the moment he told us to put you on the list and watch you. So I recommend you lay low because there is but only so much I can hide from Marcus and Caius before they start to become suspicious of me."
He tells me and I take another drag from my cigarette. "He also has us checking out a Masen Anthony Carter." Aro tells me and I quickly place my cigarette in the ash tray.
"Really? Did he say why?"
"Nope he just added him to the list."
Aro said and I found this to be the most interesting fucking news I heard all day. "Whatever, you find I want a copy of." I tell him. Then I hang up and finish my cigarette, yes this was definitely the most interesting news I've heard all day.
Edward POV
I spent a week in China and now I was in London finishing up some business about the hotel here. I also had to come over and check out the London Masen office. This would take another week and I was getting irritated with people and their damn stupidity. I was sick and tired of looking at numbers, signing fucking contracts and talking to up tight ass men about them wanting share of my company they heard I was supposedly selling. I made a note to kick Eric's ass when I finally made it back to the states.
I told the Volutri to look into Mac and thankfully it appeared that he was clean. Emmett warned me not to let my guard down though said it would be best because with Mac showing up he had a really bad feeling that between Emily and Elizabeth shit was about to hit the fan. Thankfully with the code switch on Veronica's computer the company hadn't had any lost of wages for the month of July.
"Mr. Cullen you have a meeting tomorrow at seven, then another at twelve."
Hannah said reading from the planner she was holding in her hand. "Also Jessica called and said that HP has faxed over the contract you sent and are officially partners in the tablet." She continued and I nodded my head as I looked over the file sitting in front of me. We were sitting in my office in London and I was sick and tired of going over these papers. I dropped my pen and ran my fingers through my hair.
"What time is it Hannah?"
I ask her rubbing my eyes feeling like I had been up for hours going over all of this stuff. "It's four Mr. Cullen." She says and I nod my head looking at her as she continued taking the notes I asked her to take.
"So back in Chicago it is…"
"…Ten a.m. Ms. Swan should be out of her doctor's appointment by now."
Hannah said obviously getting where I was going with this. Yesterday Isabella told me she wasn't feeling good and it worried the fuck out of me despite the fact that she told me with it was probably nothing. I picked my phone up and Hannah excused herself out of my office so that I could talk in private. I pressed one on my phone and waited for her to answer.
"I swear if I didn't know you were in London I would think you were spying on me. I literally just walked out of the doctor's office."
She says when she answers and I laugh running my fingers through my hair. "I was worried love. Is everything alright or do I need to fly home." I say more than willing to leave work behind to go to her even for a simple cold.
"I'm fine baby. It's just the birth control I was taking made me a little sick so my doctor changed it. That's all."
She tells me and I had half the mind to ask her the name of the company for her birth control so I could give them hell for making her sick but I knew she wouldn't be happy with that course of action.
"Good. I miss you Ms. Swan."
"I miss you more Mr. Cullen. How's work?"
She asked me and I could hear her car door close in the background. "It's the same as always. What are your plans for the day?" I ask her secretly wishing it was to be curled up in bed with me. Yes I was a pussy whipped man when it came to my Isabella and honestly I didn't care.
"Not what I would like it to be."
She replies and I can hear the smile in her voice. "And just what would you like it to be Ms. Swan?" I ask her playing along and she giggles into the phone. My cock twitched from the sweet sound and I had to readjust myself in my pants.
"To be making love to my extremely hot boyfriend. But he is over the pond working and I don't know when he'll be home."
"Believe me chéri I'm working to be back home by the end of the week."
I inform her and she sighs into the phone. "I know you are. Ignore me; I just got so use to having you only a drive away. You turned me into an addict." She says and I laugh.
"Happy to know you are as addicted to me as I am to you."
I reply and can imagine the blush on her cheeks. "I'm actually having lunch with Bree and your mother later." She tells me and this caught me a little by surprise. I had talked to my mother earlier and she hadn't mentioned anything about having lunch with Isabella.
"That's not a problem is it?"
She asked obviously noticing my silence. "No, of course not chéri. I would love nothing more than for my three favourite women to get along. I was just surprised my mother didn't mention this to me when I talked to her earlier." I reply and I hear her exhale the breath she was holding. My silly girlfriend still didn't understand that I wanted her around, by my side and soon she would learn that I loved her. I knew that too many other people I should just tell her but I wanted it to be special, not something I just blurted out.
"She didn't mention it because I just invited her to lunch."
Isabella tells me, "Ah I see. So what are you doing asking them for my hand in marriage?" I joke and she giggles and once again I imagine that gorgeous blush on her cheeks.
"You wish. I just invited them to lunch because I thought it would be nice."
"You do realize once the press sees you having lunch with my mother and sister they will lose it right?"
Isabella laughed, "I know, but we'll be exposed by time magazine by the end of the month anyway." She replies and I laugh thinking about what else would be exposed to the public when the magazine hits stands at the end of the month.
"I'm happy you feel comfortable enough to have lunch with my mother and sister without me having to be there. They adore you."
"I feel the same way about them. Now question, am I allowed know where we are going on vacation. I mean we leave in less than three weeks." She says and I laugh into the phone. Every day she asked if I was going to tell her where we were going and every day I said,
"No but I'll give you another hint."
She blew her breath into the phone, "So far I know that everyone else is going, but that you and I will be alone for a week. I know that it is somewhere I need my passport and that I need sunscreen." She ran off and I laughed into the phone.
"That didn't narrow it down any?"
I ask knowing damn well it didn't. It was August so she needed sunscreen in more than half the places in the world right now.
"Edward, can you please just tell me. I won't know what to pack."
She says and I was thankful I wasn't there to see the pout on her face. "I would prefer you naked chéri." I reply and she sucks her teeth loudly making me laugh.
"Pack thin clothing, bathing suits and sandals."
"And nothing formal?"
"Maybe one formal dress would be necessary."
I answer and I know she rolled her eyes. "You are enjoying this aren't you?" she asked me and I laughed into the phone again.
"Immensely, chéri."
I hear her car door open and close and she explains that she is home now. I hadn't realized we were on the phone all that time she drove home. I listen as the press seems to be in her garage and I tell her that I'm going to have Seth start to follow her.
"Baby, that is not necessary. I can handle the damn paparazzi."
She tells me just as I hear someone ask her about me being seen having dinner with the actress Samone Burino. I fucking talk to the woman for two seconds a few nights ago when we ran into each other at a restaurant and supposedly I was dating her and I broke up with Isabella. I can tell when she is finally inside of her building because the nose level is lower.
Hannah enters my office reminding me about my meeting and I groan into the phone. "Love I have to go, I'll call you later." I tell her and she groans into the phone as well.
"Alright, I-I miss you baby."
"I miss you too chéri."
I reply and we hang up. Despite what Isabella said I called Seth and asked him to keep an eye on her. The press could harass the hell out of anyone. I proceed to finish working meeting with the head of director of the London office. Once I'm back in my office the video chat on my computer starts to ring and I quickly answered seeing it was the office in Chicago. When the window opened it was Victoria,
"Mr. Cullen I have bad news."
"Of course you do, what is it?"
I asked really not in the mood to hear her bull shit, "Someone leaked that we were missing money in May and June's sales to the public and the phones has been ringing off the hook with news channels calling for a statement." She told me and my nose flared,
"Who the fuck told the press anything?"
"I don't know."
"Then what fucking good are you Victoria if you only catch the damn stories concerning the company after they are already leaked!"
I barked at her and I saw Emmett looking at me now from the couch in the corner, "Mr. Cullen, maybe if you haven't been spending all your time with Isabella Swan instead of focusing on your company no one would be able to steal from you to begin with." She said and I had half the mind to punch my computer screen.
"What the hell did you just say to me?"
"I didn't mean it like that…"
"I don't give a damn how you meant it Victoria. My personal life doesn't have shit to do with you doing your fucking job. You need to clean this, the fuck up or start packing up your office."
I tell her then end the video chat before she can reply to me. "You make more enemies then a little bit Eddie. She could just leak everything." Emmett tells me and I glare at him.
"She can try and I'll sue her ass for slander and breaking the contract she signed when I hired her."
I tell him and he nods his head, "True or just send Bella to kick her ass. Seth says she has a mean right hook." He jokes and I laugh running my fingers through my hair. I was sick and fucking tired of bad news.
Bella POV
After I got off the phone with Edward I took a quick shower. I missed him like crazy it was like I couldn't stand being away from him. As if I was indeed addicted to him. Getting out of the shower I wrapped myself in a towel just as I heard my phone ringing. I ran out to answer it and bumped into the stupid table in the hallway. Running was never a good idea for me. I reached my phone and was a little surprised to see it was my mother.
"Hey mom."
"Hey sweetheart, did I catch you at a bad time?"
She asked as I pulled my blow dryer out of my closet. "No what's up?" I ask her plugging the blow dryer up. "Oh nothing is up; I just haven't talked to you." She says and I roll my eyes because we talked two days ago. I knew she was calling for a reason.
"Mom…"
"Yes."
She answers innocently and I laugh, "What's wrong?" I ask her and she inhales and exhales into the phone. "I was watching access Hollywood last night…" Oh GOD! My subconscious screamed. "…they said that Edward was out of town getting cozy with some tramp." She finishes and I laugh into the phone.
"Why are you laughing?" she asked
"Mom how many times do I have to tell you not to listen to everything you hear on those shows?"
"I know Bella but there was a picture…"
"Mom Edward was just talking to her and they snapped a picture. That's all."
I tell her as I walk to my underwear drawer. "Are you sure I mean…" I cut her off before she continued. "Yes I'm sure mom. That's what Edward told me and I trust him. Honestly the media is just trying to start a flame it is nothing. Edward is working that's it." I tell her and she exhales as if relaxing.
"Oh good, because when you father heard it he was about ready to fly out and kick his ass."
My mother tells me and I laugh, "Tell dad that Edward and I are fine and happy alright." She laughs and tells me she will. She asks me what I was doing with my day and I told her that I was having lunch with Edward's mother and sister.
"Oh that makes it sound like you two are getting serious. Lunch with his family while he is out of town, I hear wedding bells."
She says and I imagine her wiggling her eyebrows. "Mom please don't start the wedding talk." I tell her now afraid to mention that Esme had invited the family for thanksgiving dinner.
"Oh alright; so how is his family are they stick in the mud's?"
She asked me and I laughed, "Not all of them. His parents and his youngest sister are all very nice and sweet." I reply making sure not to say sisters because Emily was anything but nice or sweet.
"That's lovely sweetie, I hope to meet them some day."
"Actually Edward's mother Esme invited the family to her house for thanksgiving dinner."
I tell her and begin to chew on my lip as I wait for her to reply. "OH that's lovely!" she practically shouts into the phone and I pull the phone from my ear. She starts to talk about what she could bring or make and I was really starting to think she forgot I was even on the phone. I tell her that I have to go and would give Esme her number. After I hang up I blow dry my hair and set and curl it.
I only had a little more than an hour to meet Bree and Esme for lunch. We were having lunch at Eclipse of course, I swore my sister restaurant could survive just off of how often the Cullen's ate there alone. Esme said it was because it was peaceful and that she could eat there like everyone else without the trouble of paparazzi and reporters. I quickly changed out of the jeans and t-shirt I was wearing into a mid thigh dress. It had a lemon and ivory top, cherry red midsection and navy blue skirt. I pulled the zipper up on the side of the dress then slipped on a pair of red sandal pumps. I knew that they would kill my feet later, but unknown to Alice shoes were starting to grow on me. Though the closer to the ground they were the more I liked them. I grabbed a red cherry bag and tossed all my essentials inside.
I checked myself in the mirror and left to meet them both at Eclipse. I walk outside and groaned at the crowd of press waiting for me. This was really starting to become a pain in my ass. They crowed me as I walked and I quickly pulled my sunglasses out my purse to protect my eyes from the flash of the cameras.
"Isabella have you and Edward broken up?"
"Isabella what do you have to say to Samone Burino?"
"Isabella is it true that you've been seeing Carlos behind Edward's back?"
Another asked and I rolled my eyes. One lunch with everyone from KBC and I was suddenly dating Carlos despite Rose, Chelsea, Mike, and Lauren being present also. I reached my car but was unable to get to it with them surrounding me.
"Can you please move."
"Come on, Isabella smile for us, you look really pretty today. Who are you meeting?"
They asked and I groaned running my fingers through my hair. I go to reply when I hear the screeching of tires. I look up and I know that car well. It stops and Seth jumps out looking pissed.
"Back the hell away from her now!"
He yells and they all turn around. He quickly breaks through the crowd and guides me to the car. He opens the back door and I climb in. Then he jumps into the driver seat and quickly pulls off.
"Are you alright Bella?"
He asked looking at me through the rear view mirror. "Yes, thank you." I tell him and he nods his head at me. "No trouble. The boss called and said that he was worried the paparazzi were harassing you more than usual." He tells and I nod my head.
"I swear he is like god, knows all and see all."
I say and Seth laughs, "You said it not me." He says and laughs and looks out the window.
"Where were you headed?"
"Eclipse, I'm meeting Esme and Bree for lunch."
I tell him and he nods his head and continues to drive. "Can you not tell Edward about this?" I say knowing he would just get worried and request Seth sticks with me.
"I could, but he'll just hear about it on TV."
He says and I groan knowing that he was right. When we arrive there are paparazzi there which only meant Bree and Esme had arrived before me. Thankfully Seth got me through them and inside.
"Call me when you are ready to go."
He tells me and I nod my head and thank him again. I wave to the matree'd and proceed inside over to the table I knew Angela reserved for the Cullen's.
"Hey Bree, Esme."
I say as I reach the table and they both stand up to greet me. I give them both hugs and compliment them on their dresses. We take our seats and a waitress I've never seen before comes over to our table.
"What would you ladies like?"
She asks, "Actually can you tell Angela and Ben that I'm here." I say knowing that what I wanted they would have to know it was me since they only made the dish in the evening.
"They're both busy right now."
"Right, tell Angela that her sister is in the dining room."
I say and she looks at me wide eyed and I nod my head. She quickly walks away and Bree laughs. "She looked like she was going to collapse when you said that." Bree said and Esme and I both laughed. A second later Angela came over with a smile on her face.
"Ang you remember Esme and Bree right?"
"Yes I do it's nice to see you both again."
Angela says shaking their hands. They talk for a few minutes and the waitress returns. We place our orders and the waitress goes to tell me that my dish wasn't on the lunch menu.
"Tell Ben that Bella ordered it and he'll make it."
Angela tells her and the waitress nods her head and quickly walks away. Angela lets us know that she has to finish working and that she would talk to us later. Once our food was brought over our conversation was light and I honestly enjoyed spending time with them.
"So Bella I hear you are going on vacation with my brother."
Bree says with a smile on her face and my cheeks flush as Esme smiles at me. "Where are you both going?" she asked and I shrugged my shoulders,
"He won't tell me, says it's a surprise."
I tell her and then Bree leans over and whispers into her mother's ear. "Oh my, that's going to be very nice." Esme says and I look at Bree.
"He told you?"
"Not exactly, I overheard him and Emmett talking. I can't tell you he swore me to secrecy, well more like promised me a Benz convertible if I kept my mouth shut."
She tells me and I laugh shaking my head, "Of course he did." I say and she and Esme just laughs. I let Esme know that my parents would be joining us at her place for thanksgiving dinner and then she started to ramble and I just simply gave her my mother's number so they could talk directly.
"I could make something also, put Edward to work in the kitchen."
"Edward doesn't cook Bella."
Bree says laughing, "Poor boy can't boil water." Esme says and I laugh. "He cooked French toast at my house before." I tell them and they both look at me as if I had said that the sky was pink.
"Edward cooked for you?"
Esme asked me and I nodded my head. "Le seigneur ont la pitié Edouard est vraiment tombé amoureux de elle." Esme says and Bree smiles a huge smile, "Elle ferez-vous une grande soeur, combien de temps le pensez-vous prendrez-vous pour que l'épouse-t-il ?" Bree replied back in French and I swore my head was starting to hurt.
"Encore trois ou quatre mois de dessus."
Esme replied back and I held my hands up, "Do the entire family speak French?" I ask and Esme and Bree look at me with a smile.
"I'm sorry dear I tend to get carried away. Yes we all do, as you know my father's parents are originally from France so it is important that we never forget where we come from so we all learned the language."
Esme tells me and I nod my head. "Edward drives me insane when he does it." I tell them picking up my glass and they share another look.
"He speaks French to you often?"
Bree ask me and I nod my head, "At the moment he calls me Cheri." I tell them and Esme's smile grows. "He's calling you darling." She says and I smile now wishing I could remember all the other things he says to me in French. We finish lunch just as I get a text from Edward,
When I get back to the states I don't care who's place we stay at but we are sleeping in for at least three days. ~E
I laugh and quickly hit reply on my phone.
Can you afford to take those days away from work? ~B
His response came quick
Don't care. How was lunch? ~E
Just finished actually about to leave ~B
I reply back and then I remember to call Seth to let him know that I was ready to go. He assured me that he would be here soon. After I hung up with him I saw that I had another text from Edward.
Did you call Seth? ~E
I rolled my eyes at the text.
I just called him, I should be mad at you for that by the way but I'm not. Thank you ~B
I know but I was worried about you chéri ~E
I know. I'm alright. Isn't it like ten at night there? ~B
Yes, trying to go to sleep have an early meeting but it's rather hard to sleep without my favourite pillows ~E
*blush* LOL I miss you something serious Mr. Cullen ~B
Not nearly as much as I miss you Ms. Swan ~E
I bit my lip just as I heard Bree and Esme laughing. "You have to be texting him; your cheeks are almost as red as your bag." Bree says and I laugh.
"I am. I just really miss him and he doesn't know when he'll be back."
I tell them as I text Edward back that him missing me more was impossible. "Will he be back before you have to leave for your vacation?" Bree asked me and I shrugged my shoulders.
"We are hoping so; we have another week until then."
"I just hope my son doesn't spend his life always working."
"I won't allow it Esme."
I tell her and she smiles at me. "Bella why don't you go surprise him?" Bree says and I look at her caught off guard.
"Uh?"
"Surprise him."
She says and I bit on my lip as I toss the idea around in my head. I didn't have anything serious planned, or nothing special to do. Are you seriously considering dropping everything and flying to London? My subconscious asked and I smiled.
"I think that's a great idea, I just have to hope I can get a flight out at such last minute."
"Use my name dear, they won't tell you no."
Esme says, "I couldn't do that Esme I mean…" She places her hand up to stop my talking. Yes Edward definitely gets it from her.
"…I won't hear of it Bella. Please that way you will have no trouble."
She tells me and I smile and tell her thank you. They both leave and Esme tells me to have fun in London. I have to admit I am feeling extremely giddy about this. I walk back to Angela's office to let her know what I planned to do.
"What do you mean you're going to London?"
"Just what I said."
I tell her and she looks at me for a moment saying nothing. "Ang if you are getting ready to talk me out of it, don't. I already made up my mind." I tell her and she nods her head.
"I can see that. I just never took you as the spontaneous up and leave type. I mean Bella you are like the planning Nazi."
She tells me and I laugh, "I know, but I miss him and I don't think I could survive a third week without being with him." I tell her and she laughs when she says,
"Even though when he returns you will be spending two weeks of non interrupted time together."
"Could you spend three weeks away from Ben?"
I ask her and she press her lips together in a smile. I leave her office and tell her I will let her know when I arrive in London. The minute I head outside the paparazzi are on their job and so is Seth. He gets me into the car and I tell him my plan and he laughs saying that would definitely make Edward's week. Once I get home I tell Seth to relax in my living room while I call the airport to make my flight arrangements. They were giving me a hard time and I was getting annoyed until I remembered Esme said to use her name and then it was like I had some damn presidential clearance or something. The damn woman put me on hold and when she came back on the line everything was fine.
"Ms. Swan I have you in first class and your flight leaves at midnight is that alright?"
She asked me and rolled my eyes because a second ago I couldn't even get a seat in coach. "Yes that's fine, thank you." I tell her and we discuss everything else and I then I hang up the phone. I let Seth know and he tells me he would be back to pick me up at eleven. I nodded my head and spent my time packing. I only got a one way ticket because I knew that I would be flying back with Edward on the jet. I made certain I had everything I would need and called Rose and Alice letting them know, then I warned Rose not to tell Emmett because he was a horrible liar.
This wasn't like me flying thousands of miles to some man, But he isn't just some man, he is a man that you are in love with. My subconscious says and I smile. I try taking a nap but it was pointless I was too excited about seeing Edward in as little as ten hours. So instead I gave myself and pedicure to take up time and when Seth called to tell me he was outside I had butterflies in my stomach. I buzzed him up and he grabbed all my bags. When we leave the paparazzi are asking me a million questions but I ignore them.
At the airport I go through the motions of security and I was getting more and more anxious. It surprised me even more when I found out that Seth got a ticket also.
"Boss said to stick with you. If I let you fly to London alone I would lose my job."
He told me and I laughed, "You are most certainly loyal to him." I say and Seth laughs, "It's not hard to be, plus I like you Bella." He says and I smile. We board the plan and Seth worked some sort of magic getting the sit next to me. The flight was long and eventually I fell asleep. Seth woke me up once we were over London and preparing to land. My stomach was doing flips I was so eager to see Edward. The plan finally landed and jumped up out of my seat the minute the seat belt light went off.
"Bella you look like a kid about to visit Santa's work shop."
Seth says and I laugh feeling embarrassed at my obvious eagerness. We get off the plane and go to baggage claim. Once we have our things we head to the hotel I knew Edward was staying and Seth had called ahead and gotten his self a room, while I was trying to figure out how I would get into Edward's room without him knowing. The damn woman at the front was another one giving me a hard damn time.
"Call Emmett."
Seth told me and I shook my head, "Emmett would tell him, he can't keep a secret." I say and Seth laughs agreeing then I smile and pull my cell phone out and call Hannah.
"Hello Ms. Swan."
"Hello Hannah, are you sitting with Edward?"
"Um no. Not at the moment."
"Good look I am here in London to surprise Edward and I need to get into his room and …"
"…say no more. I'll take care of it right now."
She says and hangs up. I smile when the hotel phone rings and the woman answers. I wasn't sure what Hannah was saying but the woman behind the desk looked both pissed and scared. After she hung up she looked at me with a forced smile.
"Here is the key card to his room…"
"Thank you."
I say taking it from her hand and made a note to tell Edward to give his lovely assistant a raise. Seth helped me up to Edward's room and then said that he would see me whenever Edward decided we ravished each other enough. I laughed and thanked him. I moaned just being hit with Edward's smell, his cologne, his soap, it was just him and it was perfect. I placed my bags in his room and checked the time. It was only one in the afternoon here in London which meant he was still in his second meeting and I had time to shower and take a quick nap.
After the shower I dressed in a red silk negligee and climbed into the bed. Again I moaned, because the pillows smelled like him, the sheets too. I fell asleep easily enjoying his scent, this feeling like I was home. I fell into a deep sleep seeing that my sleep had been restless since he left. So when I heard,
"Oh shit is that Bella!"
In the distance, I snuggled closer against the pillow. "Shut up before you wake her, and get out." I hear the voice haunting my dreams reply. This dream seemed more real though it didn't make sense.
"I thought we were getting drinks?"
"Do you think I'm getting drinks with you now, knowing she is here Em?"
"Guess not."
Came the reply with a chuckle, then the voices became further and then I heard a door. I swore this dream made no sense. I just wanted to sleep so snuggled up with his pillow and his scent. Then I felt the dip in the bed and fingers on my check.
"Isabella."
I hear that velvet voice say and I snuggle closer to the pillow. I then feel his warm breath on my cheek followed by a kiss. This was so real I never wanted to wake up. So I snuggle and fall into a deeper sleep thankful for the quietness.
I stretch and feel restrained and my eyes snap open as I look around the room trying to remember where I was. Then it all hit me I was in London, in Edward's hotel room and …Edward's arm over my waist was restraining me. I slowly turn and see him lying next to me asleep. He only wore a pair of pyjama pants and I bit my lip running my hand over his chest. He shivered under my touch and I smiled when his eyes fluttered open.
"Hey."
"Hey."
He says with my favourite grin on his face. Then he quickly turned and I was tucked securely under him while he looked down into my face.
"You surprised the hell out of me when I came in here and saw you sleep."
"Good, I wanted to surprise you."
I tell him and he grins, "I would ask why you are here but I don't care." He says and before I can tell him I was here just for him his lips came crashing down on mine. I moaned instantly needing this, needing him. I wrapped my arms around him and pushed my hands into his hair tugging on him and it was his turn to moan. I felt his fingers dig into my hip as he pressed into me.
"Fuck I missed you chéri."
He says now kissing my neck and I moan as he sucks on my pulse point. "I missed you too, that's why I'm here. I couldn't wait until next week" I reply and his lips live my neck. He looks at me, his eyes intense searching for something in my own. I know when he found what he was looking for because his eyes tore right through me.
"I love you chéri."
He says and my breath caught in my throat. I was hearing things right? "I love you Isabella." He says again, nope definitely not hearing things. I feel the tears well up in my eyes and I bit on my lip when I inhale deeply and respond saying,
"I love you too Edward."
He grins at me and takes my mouth in a fury of passion and I moan as his tongue runs over my lips. I part my lips and his tongue invades my mouth and moves perfectly with mine. I needed more I wanted to show him just how much I loved him.
"Isabella I have to be inside of you…"
"Yes."
I moan out and in a flash the clothes once separating us is gone. He looks into my eyes as he positions his self between my legs.
"I mean what I said chéri, I love you."
He says and I knew I would never be tired of hearing him say that. "I know. I love you too." I tell him and he kisses me sensually as I feel him slowly enter me. My hips rise from the bed for more as I fist his hair in my hand and kiss him harder. Once he is in me fully we both moan and he stills his movements. I roll my hips needing him to continue but he stops me,
"Love unless you want this to be over in a blink I need you to stay still."
He says and I bit my lip understanding. He places kisses on my neck, jaw and then my lips. The kiss was hot, wet and raw as he took my mouth in need. I know when he gains back some control because he starts to move inside of me slowly. He felt so strong and solid inside of me and just knowing that made my body shiver with all the need I had for him. God I loved the feeling of him filling me completely this way, taking me in only the way he could. I hitched my legs up over his hips allowing him to slip deeper inside of me and he cursed with his lips pressed to my shoulder. His hand wrapped around me and he lifted me from the bed as he stroked into me faster and harder. Each one was stronger, more urgent as if he was trying to make me understand something.
"I."
Thrust deeper.
"Love."
Thrust harder.
"You."
Thrust faster
I was whimpering under him as he repeatedly proclaimed his love to me. I understood the desperation he was having for me to understand that his words were real and not spoken in the heat of the moment. I lifted his face to look at me as we moved together. Me, lifting my hips to meet each of his downward thrust.
"I know baby."
I tell him then he kisses me and rolls us so that I am on top. I press my hands down on his chest as I roll my hips, rocking them against him. His hand started to rub my clit and I wasn't going to last much longer. I swirled my hips feeling him hitting a new spot I was coming and it was going to be big.
Lift
Drop
Swirl
"Christ Isabella."
He growled holding my hips and I moaned when he thrusts upwards into me. I ding my nails into his abs and I roll my hips whimpering as I felt him everywhere.
Lift
Drop
Swirl
"Argh."
He groans bucking up to meet my movements and I moan loudly. His magical fingers pull, pluck and circle over my clit and I am close, I'm so close I can taste it. My body heats up and I need to ride him faster, I need to claim him the way he has claimed me. I lower my face to his and kiss him passionately never lifting up the rolling or rocking of my hips.
Lift
Drop
Swirl
"I love you Edward."
I moan against his lips and his arms wrap around me and I feel his hands slide into my hair. "You are my life chéri, never forget that." He tells me then bucks upward hard and my breath halts in my chest. "My world." He says with a thrust up and I moan biting on his bottom lip. "My heart." Another thrust and dig my hands into his hair as I whimper against his lips. "My soul." He says and this time when he thrust he holds me still with his arm and pumps into me repeatedly as I moan over and over for him not to stop.
"You are my everything, Isabella."
He says with a long deep thrust and I come undone around him kissing him feverishly as I rocked my hips harder against him. He flipped us again and he was on top. My leg was moved to his shoulder and he looked me in my eyes. No words were said as he made love to me.
Faster
Harder
Deeper
Swivel and slam!
"AWWW!"
I moan digging my nails into his back. His eyes were filled with so much but it was something I've seen there many times before that I could finally indentify and that was love. This man truly loved me.
Deeper
Faster
Harder
Swivel and slam!
"Edward!"
I moaned unable to say much else I was close again and he knew it. He did this to me, I was his in every way possible and he knew it.
"Come for me chéri"
Harder
Deeper
Faster
Swivel and slam!
I couldn't speak as my lips parted but no sound came out. He was glorious as he filled me, claimed me and owned me. I watched his Adams apple bob and I knew he was close also. I lifted my leg to his other shoulder then told him to kiss me. I knew this would fold me but I was fine with that, I needed him deeper and I knew he wanted to be deeper. He kissed me hard as he slid deep inside of me groaning against my mouth. He worked my body over sliding
IN
OUT
IN
OUT
Of me with ease and I was a goner when he says, "Je t'aime means I love you" I get it now. This entire time he was telling me he loved me. The tears started to fall before I could stop them. My body shuddered under his and I chanted that I loved him hoping he would understand that I meant it, that I was his now and forever. My walls contracted around him, gripped him and I never wanted to let go. He kissed me hard and I felt him pulse in me, twitch in me as he growled. He was coming and it was strong and powerful just like him, I was doing this to him.

"Isabella."
He growled and I felt his hot release shoot into me and I cried out another release on top of the waves of my last one and I swore I saw the universe. He did this to me, just him. Our bodies sweating, hearts racing, breathing uneven and smiles on our face we looked into each other's eyes and for what was probably the hundredth time tonight we both said,
"I love you."
