"What did Jake say to you anyway?" Edward asked, following me out of the office when we'd finished for the day.

"It doesn't matter," I sighed. I was sick of talking about Jake. He was in the past.

"I don't like him upsetting you. He's done enough!"

"Edward," I beamed, touching his chest gently. "Jake doesn't matter."

"He doesn't?" he swallowed, looking down at my lips.

I was about to speak when a voice stopped me. "What's going on here?" Tanya frowned, tilting her head to the side.

"We were just leaving," I muttered, motioning to Edward.

"Edward, don't tell me…"

"Let's go, Bella," Edward suddenly mumbled, stopping Tanya in mid-sentence and dragging me away.

"Whoa, what was all that about?" I asked once we were outside.

"I don't want Tanya finding out about us."

"Why?"

"Because I've only just lost it, Bella. Jesus! Why else do you think?" My heart deflated a little at his words.

"So, you're still going to ask Tanya out at some point—once you're more confident?"

"Yes. Isn't that the reason you're helping me?"

"Yeah." I forced a smile as he opened his car door for me.

We were both quiet on the way home.

"Are you going to bring Benny to my place later?" he asked, dropping me outside my apartment. We'd decided it was best to stay at his house because of Alice and Rose.

"I hadn't thought about it," I admitted, still a little down. "He'll be okay, though. Alice is at home tonight."

"How long will you be?" He was still so eager. I had to admit, I couldn't wait to get him naked again, either.

"An hour at the most," I winked, leaning in to peck his lips. How did he change my mood so quickly? "Then we can practice some more."

"I can't wait," Edward breathed, closing his eyes for a short second. "Don't be a second late."

"I'll try not to be," I giggled, pecking his lips once more before leaving.

A/N Mmm... What do we think Tanya was going to say before Edward dragged Bella away? ;)
