One Night in Vegas.

Chapter Nine.

I couldn't wait for Edward at my father's. I was too annoyed, so I started walking. I knew Charlie wouldn't be happy with my decision, but I at least hoped he would respect it and let me learn from what we both knew would end up a big mistake. All that mattered was that I was happy right now, right?

Wrong, because at the same time I was going to be hurting Edward, and I cared enough to not to want to do that. What was I thinking when I thought I was falling in love with him? I was using him just as Charlie had said, because I needed him. Edward was my Novocaine.

I clenched my fists at my side, my hands trembling as I fought the urge to scream. I hated this. I hated it all. I wanted to love him, but mostly I wanted to him to love me like he believed he did. I wanted this to work. No, I needed this to work.

I stopped at the end of the street, my teeth chattering together and my body shuttering violently. I looked up only to realize the sky was pouring down on me and I was already soaked. Rain in Forks was normally, but not realizing it had started wasn't.

"Bella!" I didn't bother turning at the sound of my father's voice. Instead I started walking again, wanting to get away. "Bella!" He called again, the sound of his feet splashing in the puddles echoing in my ear and I walked a bit faster. "Bella, please!" His finger wrapped around my upper arm and he tugged me forcibly, making me look up at him.

"What?" I said, glaring up at him. He was soaked and shivering too as he stared down at me with his eyes wide with sadness. I felt my heart tighten and my eyes soften, frowning.

"I'm sorry." He said, his hold on my upper arm loosening before it fell to his side. "You were right. It is your life and you are no longer a child, but that doesn't mean I'm going to worry any less." Charlie took a deep breath and reached to tuck a wet strand of hair behind my ear. "I'm still not to happy with, well, any of this, but I'm not going to stop you."

I bit my lip, choking back a sob that was working its way up my throat and nodded, wrapping my arms around my dad's waist. Charlie mirrored my movement and pulled me close, his lips pressing to the top of my wet head. "And honey, if this... thing doesn't work out please know you are always welcome to come home."

My sobs finally freed themselves only to be muffled by my father's chest, and as I cried he held me there in the rain. By the time I disentangled myself from him we both had water dripping from every inch of our bodies, shivering nonstop.

"L-let's g-g-go home." My teeth chattered. Edward would be here any minute and I was pretty sure he wouldn't want me getting inside his car the way I was. I would drown us both.

Charlie nodded. "Good idea." He said, his teeth not chattering together, unlike mine. He gently grabbed my hand and I sniffled, smiling softly.

"Thanks dad."

By the time we got back to the house the rain had stopped and I couldn't help but think God had something against me. What the hell had I ever done to him anyway. Charlie opened the door and I quickly jumped inside.

"Hurry up and go change." Charlie said closing the door behind us. "We are already making puddles."

I tried to laugh, but the sound that came out was awkward due to my chattering teeth. I turned quickly and headed for the stairs. Hopefully I would have enough time to take a hot shower before Edward got here. I thought against it as I got into my room and began stripping. He would be here any minute and at this point I'd rather not have him sitting alone with Charlie for any amount of time. Only God knew how long Charlie's sincerity would last.

I threw my drenched clothes into the laundry hamper and quickly made my way across the room and grabbing my sweat pants and pulling them on. I'd worry about under wear later. Like after I had a shower. A nice hot one. I closed my eyes, pulling my night shirt on over my head. I couldn't wait for that shower. Maybe I'd make it a bubble bath. I'm sure Edward had a nice jacuzzi tub in that house somewhere, or at least I hoped.

I was still cold after I pulled on a pair of socks and an old pair of tennis shoes and was contemplating on crawling under my comforter, shoes and all, until Edward got there, but of course I talked myself out of it. Instead I went to my closet and pulled out a small suit case and began throwing random clothes inside.

I was zippering the bag when I heard my door open and I turned to meet Edward's curious green eyes. "Don't you knock?"I asked frowning. My brows furrowed when his lips mimicked mine and he crossed the room in two swift movements.

"Your lips are blue." He said, placing his hands on each of my arms. His face went from shocked to concerned in a split second and he began rubbing his hands against my skin. "You are as cold as ice! What were you doing?" One of his hands went to the back of my head, his fingers dragging through my knotted wet mop. "What happened? You sounded upset on the phone."

I shook my head. There was no need for him to really know what happened tonight. Especially since things had turned around. "No, not upset. Charlie and I went for a walk after dinner and well, we got caught in the rain." I smiled. "I had just gotten in the house when I called you. I was cold."

He narrowed his eyes and his frowned deepened and I knew he knew I was lying. I sucked at it. I was just thankful he didn't say anything. Instead he turned and grabbed my suit case and lifted it up. "Are you ready then?" He asked, nodding his head towards the door.

I took a deep breath and maneuvered my way around him. "Just a minute." I said grabbing my pillow off my bed. "Now, I am, after I say good bye to Charlie that is." I said holding my pillow close to my chest and he nodded curtly.

"You know, we have pillows at the house." He said heading out the door.

I shrugged even though he couldn't see. "But we don't have my pillow at the house." I said watching him go down the stairs two at a time as I followed him. If I had attempted that I would have ended up flat on my face at the bottom.

Edward waited for me at the bottom of the stairs and I stepped in front of him, making my way to the living room where I knew Charlie would be, lounging in his chair like nothing had happened with some kind of sport show flickering on the television. I smiled softly at him lounging back, his feet up on the foot rest. Of course he would have changed quickly. "You don't have to get up." I said as I watched him sit up and push the foot rest down.

"I want to see you to the door." He said, his gaze passing mine and I could only assume he was staring at Edward.

"Evening sir." Edward said politely.

"Don't call me sir. I already told you that." Charlie said sourly. "It makes me feel old."

I turned my head to look at Edward and he nodded apologetically.

"I just want to remind you, because I'm sure you know by now, but I am the Chief of police and if you even think about hurting my daughter-"

"Dad!"

"- I'll kill you." He continued like I had never interrupted. "And I can promise you that I'll get away with it too."

I groaned loudly and to my surprise Edward chuckled. "If any one here ends up hurt it will be me."

I frowned at his statement and I heard my father sigh, not a moment later I felt his arms around me and his lips press to my forehead. "Give me a call tomorrow?"

I nodded, encircling my arms around him, my pillow pressed between us. "Okay." I said my eyes on Edward.

Charlie stood in the doorway watching as we walked to Edward's car. "Don't forget to call me!" He yelled as Edward popped his trunk and placed my suit case inside. I placed my pillow inside next to it before turning to face Charlie, smiling.

"I won't." I reassured him, before getting into the car, Edward had been holding the door open waiting for me. It was only a second later that he was in the driver's seat starting the car.

"How are you?" He asked grabbing my hand, cringing. "You still feel like ice." He said, unpleased. He quickly released my hand and turned up the heat before pulling out of the drive way. I watched Charlie turn back into the house and close the door. "So, are you going to tell me what really happened?"

I turned my head and looked at him as he drove. "Nope."

He frowned and his brow furrowed, but once again I was glad he didn't drag it any farther than that. In fact he didn't say anymore than that until we pulled into the driveway.

"I've missed you."

I rolled my eyes, turning my head. "I wasn't gone long." I wasn't about to admit I missed him too. Even if I wanted to I didn't have the time to. Before I could react he was on my side of the car and his lips crashed roughly to mine.

He groaned against my mouth, his hands lifting my shirt. "You know the fastest way to heat the human body?" He asked, nipping my bottom lip.

My heart skipped a beat and I hoped to God that he wasn't messing around with me. I would not tolerate teasing. "I don't know." I purred, pushing him back over to the driver's side and lifting my shirt over my head. He growled at the site of my bare breast and I flung my shirt into the back seat. So much for being cold now. My skin felt like it was on fire. "Want to show me?"

He yanked me on to his lap, his hands dipping inside my sweat pants and instantly finding the part of me that ached for him the most. Edward groaned softly, pressing two of his long perfect fingers inside of me and I grabbed a hold of his shoulder, crying out. "Do you know how hot that is?" He asked, pumping his fingers in and out of my womanhood as I worked on the button of his pants. "The whole not wearing panties and bra thing."

"Oh..." I panted, finally getting his zipper down. My hand darted into his pants to find my prize. I purred happily as my fingers encircled his long hard shafted, pulling it free from it's confines and giving it a few jerks.

"Bella please." He groaned, his fingers jamming inside me and his hips thrusting into my hand. I smirked at the feeling of control I had over him and allowed my hand to stroke it a few more times, but my dominance was short lived. The next thing I knew was that sweat pants were down passed my knees and Edward was holding me up over him. He thrust into my in one quick smooth motion and my breath caught in my throat.

"Edward!" I moaned grinding myself against him as he pounded himself inside me relentlessly, the sound of our skin smacking together echoed in his car. The way we were going neither of us would be lasting long, but I was okay with that. For now.

His mouth latched to my already extremely sensitive nipple and I arched into him hissing in pleasure as his tongue swirled against it and his teeth gently gnawed as it. He thrust became more intense and felt myself beginning to tighten against him.

"Edward..." I whimpered, taking in a shaky breath as my body began to tremble. I fell back against the steering wheel as my orgasm washed over me, the horn blaring loudly, and I was pretty sure I screamed his name and it wasn't a moment later that I felt him ejaculate inside me, my name leaving his lips in a soft groan.

I lifted myself off the steering wheel to stop the horrid sound of the horn, and buried myself against his chest. The last thing we needed was a neighbor to come by. "Are you sure you want separate bedrooms?" I asked, panting, a small smirk forming on my lips.

Well, it is 2:45 in the morning and I'm absolutely exhausted! It is way past my bed time, but I promised you a chapter today. Well, technically yesterday but I forgot I had plans with friends so I stayed up to write for you guys, so please review! And excuse any spelling mistake or grammar. I'm tired right now and even though I read through it already to check I probably missed some things. I'll check it over again in the morning. Now. Review! THANKS!
