A/N…LovinRob and Amandac3…thank you both for your patience with me. I know it can be frustrating but you hang in there with me anyway.

Jen, I'm still thinking of Charlie.

I received some very nice words in your reviews last chapter and I want to thank each and every one of you. It did my heart good.

CHAPTER 16

Edward

The first thing I want to do when I wake, besides getting relief from my morning wood, is to call her. I didn't think my dick could get any harder but the thought of being inside of her tomorrow certainly showed that it could. I think it's best to get out of bed and take care of this because at the rate I'm going you would think I was 16 again. The way I get hard at the mere thought of touching her causes me to quickly cum in the shower. Fuck! I'm almost afraid to be with her the first time. I will probably cum all over her just by seeing her beautiful body lying there waiting for me.

I dress in a pair of dark jeans, a navy long sleeved sweater with a white tee underneath and my black boots. I leave the two-day's worth of growth on my face because I'm pretty sure she likes it. I need to get a haircut when I get home though, I forgot how unruly my hair gets the longer it is, but I really dig the way she runs her hands through it; the way she grabs hold tight. Shit, there goes my cock again. Christ, this is seriously becoming a problem.

I head to the kitchen to make a pot of coffee but Jasper's already beat me to it. He pours me a cup when he sees me coming down the stairs.

"You're up early." He says, handing me a cup of the hot brew.

"Yeah, I had a few calls to make before we met up with the girls." I say, wrapping my hands around the cup and walking to the window that overlooks the mountain.

"That has a nice ring to it doesn't it? 'Picking up the girls?'" Jasper is clearly infatuated with Alice and I am very happy for him.

"Yeah, it does actually." I say, turning to look at him. "You and Alice, huh?" I ask.

"Edward, I can't describe it. I'm afraid to even hope. She is perfect. Just perfect. She is good and kind, loving and sweet and for some reason, she wants me." He says holding his fist to his heart.

"I'm happy for you Jazz. The day I met Bella was the day she changed all of our lives forever." I say, turning back toward the window. I turn around again when I hear Emmett coming down the stairs sounding like stampede of cattle. I swear, why must he always be so loud?

"Morning bros, coffee?" He asks heading for the coffee pot. "So what time are we picking up the girls?" He asks.

Jasper and I look at each other and start laughing. He raises his brow and looks back and forth between Jazz and I.

"What?" He asks with a confused expression on his face.

We burst out laughing again.

"1:00." I say, looking at him with a sly grin on my face. "No dinner last night, eh? You must be starving."

"Naw, she fed me." He says, almost laughing and raising one eyebrow. "What a woman."

He takes a sip of his coffee, clearly reminiscing about last night's events. Jazz and I look at each other and grin. Oh yes, both of my brothers have it bad. Who am I kidding; I have it just as bad.

"Let's go grab some grub, I'm starving." Emmett says, chuckling as he walks toward the door.

We hurry to the garage, maneuver the parking lot and drive in the direction of Tahoe City for breakfast. The three of us are unusually quiet until we arrive in Tahoe City which is where we spot three beautiful women walking down the street, window shopping. Damn she looks good and I immediately want to pull over but I think better of it because I want her to have her time with her friends. She has devoted all of her time to me since Monday. They haven't had much time alone and it does help that her two friends are crushing on my brothers because that means I will see her more.

"Hey Edward, flip a bitch, turn around and let's go get 'em." Emmett says, straining to see Rosalie.

"Nope. They're doing their girl stuff this morning. We'll see them soon enough so let them do their thing this morning. You can have Rosalie this afternoon." I reply while pulling into the parking lot of the coffee shop. Both of them are stretching to watch Rosalie and Alice out the window as long as they possibly can. Yep, my brothers have it really bad.

After we are seated and the waitress looks at me a little too long for comfort, she blushes and takes our order.

I look at my brothers, "How are you guys going to do this?"

I'm interested to know how they are going to swing seeing Rose and Alice with work and the travel distance and all. I am watching Jasper while he shreds his napkin.

"I have no idea. They are about an hour away, which equates to an hour and a half to two hours in traffic, so I guess I plan on seeing her as often as I can. How about you Edward?" Jasper asks, looking hopeful that I have a better plan.

"Same as you I guess. I am going to have Angela get the helicopter details worked out and will use that as often as I can. Bella said she would drive to Napa to share the travel time. Skype, email and texting helps, plus whatever business I have in the city, I will make it a point to see her. On top of it all, she's going to go back to school to get her law degree. That will take up even more of her time. This is going to be rough." I say, looking at them. We all look like a bunch of lost lonely puppies.

"But, hey, it will work out. You aren't exclusive, right?" I say, my eyes shifting between each of my brothers waiting for their answers. I think they are but I am really curious to see how they respond to my question.

"I don't want any other motherfucker touching her." Emmett says, sitting up straight and smacking his palm on the table.

"Just the thought of Alice being with someone else turns my stomach." Jasper says, shaking his head while staring into his coffee cup.

My brothers wait to hear what my thoughts are concerning Bella. I am looking out the window onto the street, watching it snow. I slowly turn my head to them and say quietly, "I think I'm in love with Bella." And just as slowly return to looking out the window.

It was early yet and we had a lot of time to kill before we were to meet the girls at the house, so we decide to get a couple of hours of skiing in. Emmett and I have an ongoing competition on who can slaughter who on the black diamond runs and, again, I wipe Emmett's ass all over the slope.

"Maybe next year, big brother." I yell over my shoulder, laughing at him.

He is frowning at me and I can't help but chuckle some more. He really hates it when I win. I decide to get one more run in and head over to the Chute because that's the one Bella and I like to ski together. It wasn't the same without her.

My brothers and I head home and hit the showers. Afterward, I sit at the window to watch the mountain, nursing a Chivas, and think about her. My thoughts are drawn to the very first time I saw her driving down the road without a care in the world. I think about when I first touched her in the parking lot of the gas station, I had felt a current run through us. Something I had never felt before. Now I feel it every time we touch. I close my eyes and I can still remember how her hair smelled and how much I was drawn to her. Of course it was over for me when I saw her walking across the parking lot to the ski lift. And that first kiss. When did I fall in love with her? It's too soon... it's just too soon! I can't get that mantra out of my head. Could it be lust? Is that what I am feeling? NO! I know lust. I feel lust with my cock. This is not the same.

Jasper finds me in my chair, leaning forward on my knees with my head hanging staring at the ground. I must have been in deep thought because I didn't even hear him walk up to me. He puts his hand on my shoulder.

"Edward? All of us have fallen for these girls. It's okay for you to love her. You haven't loved anyone since Leah." I cringe at the mention of her name. "Bella is different. You deserve her." He says, squeezing my shoulder. "Enjoy this time with her."

I turn my head to look at him. "I know what you are doing. You are fighting it aren't you. You are trying to talk yourself out of it. Don't do that, Edward. Allow yourself to love her."

Jasper knows that my mind is at war with my heart. I stand up and clamp my hand on his shoulder, nodding my head in affirmation, still not knowing exactly what to do.

"Let's go, I don't want to be late. I promised Bella I wouldn't be late." I say

I ask Jasper to drive as my mind is on so many other things. We pull into the driveway at exactly 1:00 and Alice greets us at the door, bouncing on the balls of her feet waiting to throw herself at Jasper. I glance back at him and smile. He rolls his eyes and shrugs his shoulders.

"She likes me, what can I say?"

I clap my hand on his back squeezing his shoulder and walk into the house. Emmett already has Rosalie in a bear hug, spinning her around the living room. She is squealing and then he bends her backward, giving her one of their signature kisses. I look around the room for Bella but she's not here. I hear her bedroom door open and she comes barreling down the stairs looking fucking hot in those tight jeans and black leather boots. Damn she looks good.

I know in that instant that I can't fight. I am in love with her. I meet her at the bottom of the stairs and all I can do is stare at her; into her big brown eyes. I wrap my arms around her, not wanting to ever let her go.

"I want you to be mine, Bella." I say, holding onto her.

I bury my face into her neck, smelling her. God she smells good.

"Yes, Edward." She says and throws her arms around my neck squeezing me with everything she has.

"Damn you look good." I whisper only for her to hear.

She brings her mouth around to kiss me. It wasn't one of those chaste kisses either. I am so turned on right now and at this point I could have taken her right here on these steps. That is until Rosalie opens her big mouth…again.

"Go upstairs you two; we will meet you after lunch." She says rolling her eyes.

Bella and I break our kiss and I can see that she wants me as badly as I want her. I can't help but laugh at how close we actually came to fucking right there in that spot. I grab a handful of her lovely bottom and watch the twinkle in her eyes.

"Let's go." I say with a quick kiss to her nose.

She finds her coat and we are out the door. After a short ride to Sunnyside, we are seated in a small area off the main dining area and bar. The room is surrounded by windows that overlook the lake so Bella can watch it snow. I knew she would like these seats and she didn't disappoint.

"Oh, Edward, isn't this beautiful?" She exclaimed. She has a look of awe on her face as I watch her eyes scan the entire view of the lake.

"You are beautiful, Bella." I say, running my finger under her chin.

We order our drinks first and the girls get margaritas with deep fried zucchini for appetizers. Jasper has volunteered to be our designated driver so Emmett and I order Heinekens.

The zucchini arrives and everyone dives in. The girls sound like they are having mini orgasms over there. Emmett looks at Rosalie while she is dipping her zucchini spear into ranch dressing, sucking the dressing off and then going into an orgasmic fit. Emmett looks at her like he's watching live porn.

"Rosie, are you having an orgasm baby, because that's just how you sounded last night?" He asks, grinning at her.

"No, this is a fake orgasm, sugar." She sure looks like she is from where I'm sitting.

"I don't know, Rosie, you sure you aren't because I swear you look like you are."

"Honey, there's faking orgasms then there's faking having fake orgasms, what do you think?

"Rosie, you aren't telling me…?"

She looks at Em and smiles, "With a cock like yours baby, there's no way I'm going to walk away with a fake orgasm. Come with me, I'll show you the difference." And just like that they leave.

Thirty minutes later Rosalie and Emmett return and finish their cold lunch. No one says a word to them. What could we say anyway?

I turn to Bella and ask what she wants to do with the rest of the afternoon. She suggests movie night since it was snowing so hard, saying she doesn't want to be out in it. We all agree and head to the movie store, selecting a few movies we all want to see. I start a fire and Bella makes hot toddies for us. We all snuggle in and watch The Grey. We are about 15 minutes into the movie when Jasper and Alice disappear upstairs. I look down at Bella and I know something is wrong and I know exactly what it is.

I brought her ear to me, "I want to make love to you Bella, not a quickie with my brothers a few feet from the door."

She smiles her sweet smile, strokes the side of my face and gives me a small kiss. I snuggle her closer to me and it is a good feeling having her next to me.

After a second movie and a few hot toddies later, I can see that Bella is getting tired so I round up my brothers to head home. I look outside and see there has to be at least three feet of new snow. We are all gathered at the front window looking out and agree it would be safer if we stayed put for the night. This will be the second time that I slept with Bella by my side and not touched her. Lord help me. My brothers waste no time leading their girls to their rooms.

I build Bella a fire in the bedroom while she is changing in the bathroom. When she comes out she's dressed in a mini chemise.

"Come over here, Bella." I say to her with my arms open for her. She walks into my arms and I wrap them around her, feeling her breasts against me.

Something is up with her and I know what it is as she climbs into bed, covering herself quietly.

I remove my sweater and jeans, leaving my boxer briefs on and climb in next to her, pulling her close to me.

"What's the matter, baby?" I ask her rolling her into my arms.

"Mmmm, nothing really. Tired." She says, snuggling into me. She doesn't want to tell me.

"Bella?"

"I guess I'm feeling a little jealous of my friends." She confesses.

"I had a feeling that's what was bothering you." I say to her as she tucks her head under my chin and rests on my chest.

I love the feel of her running her hand across my chest and over my stomach. I am already hard for her and start thinking I should just give her what we both want. We are laying there when I feel a cool wetness down my side and I sit up to find Bella silently crying.

"Oh, Bella. Baby." I soothe her. "Bella, I'm so sorry."

"Edward…" Is all she says.

I have been withholding from her and my girl needs some attention. I roll her onto her back and wipe her tears from her face and can see how beautiful she is in the firelight.

"Please don't cry, Bella."

I run my thumb over her lips that are swollen from her crying and I can't resist taking her bottom lip into my mouth. I gently suck on it, moving my tongue sensuously across it before slipping into her mouth to taste her. She melds her body to mine and pulls me across her and deepens our kiss. My hand is enjoying her curves and the smoothness of her long beautiful legs. She has her leg bent at the knee and I run my hand up the back of her thigh intentionally grazing the entrance of where I desperately want to be. She moans into my mouth and that tells me everything I need to know.

I lift her chemise over her head and hear my own gasp of breath when I view her long beautiful body. I glide my hand over her stomach stopping just under her breast, running my tongue over it, suckling and tugging on her nipple with my teeth. She arches her back in response and her breathing intensifies. I cup her perfect breast in my hand while tasting and teasing the other, taking as much of her into my mouth as I can. I can hear myself moan wanting more of her, needing more of her. My cock aches for her and I know I can't take it anymore. When I look up at her I see that she is watching me. The intense look on her face speaks volumes to me. She smiles and pulls my face to hers, gently skimming my lips with her tongue. I open my mouth to let her in and have one of the most erotic kisses I have ever experienced. I continue my exploration of her body and run my hands down her side, across her stomach and down over her hip.

"Touch me, Edward. Please." Bella pleads.

When my hand begins to move, I can feel her hips rise to seek out my hand. Surprised by her plea, I look up at her again and see the desire in her eyes.

"Please?" She begs.

I take her breast in my mouth again and roll my tongue across her nipple, sucking and playing with the hardened tip. I cup her face in my hands and look into her eyes.

"I've wanted to touch you since the day I met you, baby."

I instantly remove her sexy white panties in one fluid motion and can't resist sitting back on my heels, pushing her knees apart, to just look at how beautiful her pussy is.

"Fuck Bella, you're bare!" And my mouth itches to touch the smoothness of her.

I want to hear her moan in my mouth the first time I touch her, so I kiss her passionately when I enter her folds. I run my finger over her clit and back down to her entrance. She doesn't disappoint me.

"Bella, baby, you are so fucking wet. Damn!" I say into her mouth.

I watch her face as I circle her clit and she spreads her legs open wide for me, giving me better access to her.

"Christ, Bella, I want you so bad right now."

That gets me another moan and she laces her fingers through my hair and starts to move against my hand. I slide two fingers into her, desperate to find the sweet spot inside of her. I can feel how fucking wet she is and bring my fingers to my mouth to taste her. I'm about to cum all over myself at how sweet she tastes. She responds vocally to my touch and I'm sure she can be heard through the walls, but I don't care, it's her turn dammit.

Her clit is swollen and ready so my fingers enter her again and this time I know I found her spot because she gasps and her hands hit the bed fisting and pulling at the sheets. I slowly tease her and stroke her sweet spot then lower my mouth to her and blow my warm breath across her pussy, licking along the sides of her clit, teasing her. I then touch her sensitive nub, teasing it with my tongue, causing her to grab handfuls of my hair and arching her back off the bed again. I can't believe how sweet she tastes and I devour every drop of her. I continue to tease her, bringing her close to orgasm but not letting her have it.

"Edward…PLEASE!" She yells out, wanting me to give it to her. I assault her clit with my mouth and apply pressure to her sweet spot, stroking it long and hard.

"Oh fuck, Edward. That's…right there…that's…so good."

I am getting off watching her while she pulls at my hair and moans my name. That's the hottest thing I've ever seen and it is taking everything in me not to just ram my cock into her right now as I want her so much.

"Edward…Ohmygod... ohmygod"

I stroke the spot inside her while circling the top of her clit with my other hand and using my tongue to tease her sensitive spot to finish her off. I can feel her tighten around my fingers and I watch her body react. Fuck, I can't wait to feel her cum around my cock like this.

"Oh…Fuck…I'm cumming, Edward."

I hear her call out my name while she is cumming on my face and that is the hottest fucking thing to hear. I stroke inside her as long as her orgasm holds out and once she comes down from that high she finally lets out the breath she has been holding, half sighing, half moaning. I slowly remove my fingers and lower my mouth to taste her and tease her sensitive clit; she jerks and pushes me away, giggling.

"Oh. My. God. Edward. That was…Thank you…" She purrs and tugs on me to come up to her and she snuggles in close against me and instantly falls asleep like a little kitten.

My Bella is happy.
