So, you know that feeling, when you're almost awake, but you're definitely still asleep? Yeah, I think that's what is going on right now. There's no way I am awake and feeling this fucking good. I'm dreaming. That's it. Because right now, I would swear to you that Bella's hot, wet mouth is wrapped around my cock. But I know it's a dream, because she's in Seattle and I'm here in Chicago. Fuck, I don't wanna wake up. Dammit, she's really good at this. I feel like I'm gonna come any second. I can't help the moan that escapes as I lazily open my eyes.
"Well good morning Handsome. I hope I'm not bothering you. Did I wake you?" The little minx looks up at me through her lashes and I realize that I am not dreaming. I am really here, in Seattle, with Bella, and praise to whatever God is listening she is sucking my cock.
"Mmm baby, if I'm dreaming I never want to wake up. Fuck Bella, your mouth on my cock is better than I ever imagined." I reached down and ran my fingers through her thick mane, still not believing she was mine and we were here together.
"I'm sorry if it's no good Edward. I've never done this before. You'll have to tell me what you like." Was she serious?
"Oh Sweetheart, you just keep doing what you're doing." I threw my head back down on the pillow and just let myself feel what she was doing to me. She moved herself to where she was on her knees between my spread legs. She wrapped her hand around the base of my shaft and stroked upward as she sucked the head of my cock into her mouth. I felt the tip of her tongue flicking over my slit and moaned again at the tingles she was causing. All of a sudden, out of nowhere, I felt her hum and suck even harder, her cheeks hollowed out.
"Fuck, fuck fuck Bella, you are gonna have to slow down baby. If you keep that up I'm gonna come right the fuck now." I was holding on to the last thread of control I had when Bella relaxed her throat and took me nearly all the way down. I tried to warn her and pull her off me, but she wouldn't budge. My hips bucked, my hands fisted in her hair and I spilled everything I had down her throat.
"Fuck Edward, that was hot. You taste amazing." I was barely able to move, but I managed to lift my head and look down at her just as she wiped the corner of her mouth and winked at me.
"Holy shit baby, what got into you this morning? Not that I'm complaining a bit though." I pulled her to me and flipped us so I was hovering over her.
"It's just all a part of you being here Edward. I missed you so much. Please don't ever leave me again. That was too long." Tears formed in her beautiful eyes and for the first time since I left her all those months ago, I really and truly felt like a total selfish asshole. Why did I have to run from the ridicule? Why didn't I just get my shit together here in Seattle? Then, why did I keep myself from Bella? I know she would have supported me all the way. My guilt must have been evident because she reached up and stroked my cheeks. She was about to say something and I couldn't listen to it. I already felt like a total prick. Quickly I sat up in bed and reached down for my discarded boxers. Slipping them on I walked into the bathroom, Bella hot on my heels.
"Edward, what's wrong? Did I say something to upset you?" She grabbed my forearm and pulled me to face her.
"Fuck baby, I have been such a selfish dick. I don't know how you can love me." I tried to turn back to the bathroom but she stopped me again.
"I don't know what happened just now but we need to talk about why you feel this way. Come sit down. Now."
We walked back to the bed and sat down, Bella immediately taking my hands in hers.
"Talk to me Edward." Fuck. I need to just spit it out.
"I just realized how selfish I have been since I left. Then I kept myself from you the entire time just because I wanted to surprise you when I reached my goal. I just realized how it must have been for you. Christ Bell, it was awful for me not seeing you, but I kept telling myself that you would be so proud of me when I came home. I just wanted to be healthier for myself and for you."
"Edward listen to me, I am so proud of you. I hated the separation, that's true, but it's over now. We made it. Look, we might not have ever confessed how we really felt about each other if you hadn't left." She moved to straddle my lap and I immediately wrapped my arms around her waist. "I can't regret a minute of the last year and a half. I love you so much."
"I fucking love you baby. I love you so much. I'm sorry. I freaked out a bit there huh?" I ran my fingers through her long tresses and ran my nose along her jawline.
"It's ok Handsome. We need to grab a shower and go get some breakfast. I worked up an appetite last night." She winked at me as she licked my lower lip. Fuck. My dick was semi hard anyway and the more she moved on my lap the harder it got. I stood up as Bella wrapped her legs around me and I walked us to the bathroom.
"Come on Sweetheart, I think I'd like to have some hot, steamy shower sex with my fuckhot girlfriend. What do you say?" I lowered her to the floor and reached in to turn the shower on. When I turned back around Bella was leaning against the sink and seriously eye fucking me. I stood facing her and gazed into her hooded eyes. "Baby, is there something I can do for you?"
"Fuck you look hot. I mean, I guess I haven't really taken the time to just LOOK at you Edward. Don't get me wrong, I always thought you were extremely gorgeous, but now…" she trailed off as she ran her hand down the middle of her cleavage, stopping at her navel. Normally I would have shied away at the intensity of her stare, but this was my Bella and I knew without a doubt that she loved me for me.
"Isabella, you look like you are having very naughty thoughts." I approached her slowly, as if I were stalking her. When I reached for her, she threw her arms around my neck and kissed me passionately. Not missing a beat, I walked us into the shower where I made sure Bella was absolutely clean as a whistle, taking great care in laundering her amazing boobs and other areas.
Once we finished our shower and dressed, we decided to take a walk to Buy the Bean for some coffee and breakfast. I was a little apprehensive at first since the last time I was there still exploded inside my mind. But I had to remember that things were different now.
I opened the door as I guided Bella in with my hand on the small of her back. There was a bit of a line so we got in it and waited. I had Bella in front of me, pulled against my chest as my arms wound down around her waist. She leaned her head back on my chest and I relished the sensation of having her here, with me, where I could touch her at will. I was so fucking glad to be home.
"Edward, it looks like it's getting a little more crowded. What if I go grab a table for us over in the corner and you can get our breakfast?"
"Sure baby. That sounds good. What would you like?" She had turned in my arms to face me.
"Surprise me Gorgeous. I have something I want to do. See, I want to go sit over there and stare at this really good looking guy standing in line. I'm trying to get up the courage to ask him out but he's really amazingly hot and I'm sure he has a girlfriend. Seriously though, I'd just like to fuck him. Hard." She leaned up and whispered the last word directly into my ear, causing my cock to twitch against her stomach.
"Maybe his girlfriend will want to watch." I wiggled my eyebrows at her and clearly caught her off guard as her mouth flew open and she had the most adorable pout I'd ever seen on her face.
"Edward Anthony, you never cease to surprise me." She kissed me chastely but before she could pull away, I pulled her hips flush with mine so she could feel what she had done to me.
"Go get a table Bella, before that guy in line fucks you right where you stand." I turned her away from me and sent her off with a swift smack on the ass. The squeal she let out didn't escape me as she bounded over to our special table, wiggling said ass just a little more than usual.
The line was moving extremely slow but I finally made it to the counter to place our order. As I stepped up to the front, I looked to the barista and couldn't believe my eyes. Jessica Stanley stood at the register ready to take my order and seriously giving me the once over. Her eyes were wide as her tongue peeked out to lick her cherry red lips. I may have thrown up in my mouth just a little.
"Hi, welcome to Buy the Bean, what can I get for you Handsome?" She leaned over the counter toward me and not-so-subtly pulled her shirt down to show some of her ample, yet unflattering cleavage.
"I'll have a Venti Iced Cinnamon Dolce Latte, a Grande Regular Black Coffee, two of the Harvest Fruit Blend Bowls with a bowl of the whole grain oatmeal and a bowl of the blueberry whole grain oatmeal." I looked away from the menu and back at Jessica, who hadn't written a thing down, but was seriously eye fucking me. When she realized I had finished talking she looked at the register and fumbled with her pen a bit. What the fuck was with this bitch?
Bella must have noticed what was going on because the next thing I knew, she was wrapped around me. Jessica was suddenly wearing a large bitch brow.
"Edward baby, what's taking so long? I was getting lonely over there without you. Oh, hey Jess. When did you start working here?" The entire time Bella was talking, she was rubbing up and down my chest in a very provocative way. I was spellbound at the moment and couldn't have formed a coherent response if I had to. Her hands all over me felt amazing.
"Edward? Oh my God! Edward Cullen? Like, seriously? You….I mean…you aren't fat…uhm…." Jessica stuttered out. Apparently Bella had enough.
"Look Jessica, are you going to take our order or are you going to stand there and eye fuck my boyfriend? Because I haven't had my coffee yet, I've had a very long night, albeit amazing, and Edward and I REALLY need to get back to our apartment to continue our reunion. He's back now and I'd like to enjoy him." Fuck, Bella was hot when she was possessive. Part of me wondered if she would actually piss on my leg while she was at it. Or maybe she'd just rub herself all over me like a cat would. MMM, Bella's kitty. Fuck. Now I was hard again. My little fantasy was interrupted by Jessica's whiny voice.
"Well, listen Edward, if you get tired of HER, give me a call. I'd love to show you what a real woman feels like." She turned around and handed our ticket to the barista behind her. I opened my mouth to protest her statement, but once again, Bella beat me to the punch.
"Let me make one thing abundantly clear to you Stanley. Edward has no interest in you whatsoever. I mean come on, who do you fucking think you are? Before he left you wouldn't give him the time of day. You and your skank army did nothing but ridicule him and act like total bitches. Now, he comes back healthier than he's ever been after working his ass off and just because he now looks acceptable to you, you think he'd give you a second look? Well think again bitch. Edward's heart, his mind, and his soul all belong to me. And Jessica, Edward's fuckhot body, every beautiful, glorious, thick, long, hard part of it, belongs to me as well. You'd do well to remember that. Now I suggest you get on with your job, because your customer service skills leave quite a bit to be desired." She turned around and planted a deep, passionate kiss on my gaping mouth. When I regained my composure I winked at her and then took my turn at Jessica.
"Jessica, I don't think there will ever come a time that I will need to call you for anything. Bella is everything I ever dreamed of. You aren't any better than Newton. Both of you deserve each other. Now if you'd like to get our order together, that'd be great." I shooed her away with one hand while I palmed Bella's ass with the other. Leaning down, I took her earlobe into my mouth and whispered to her.
"Fuck baby, you got me all hot and hard by being so possessive. Like I'd ever give that skank a second look."
"I know babe, but she needed to know that you are off the market. You're mine Edward. You were in Chicago far too long and now that you're back, not to mention looking like a walking smorgasbord of sin, I'll be damned if these bitches in heat around here get a second look at you." Yeah, that's so not helping the situation in my shorts baby.
When our order was finally ready we took our seats at the table and began to enjoy our breakfast and each other's company. It was like old times, as we slipped right back into our friendship like I'd never left. Only now, there was the intimate part of everything. I marveled at the feelings I had for the woman in front of me. Bella was everything I never knew I could have. She was my sunshine and the oxygen in my lungs.
We finished our food and decided it was time to head back to the apartment. Bella mentioned stopping at the grocery store because she wanted to make me a special dinner tonight. We decided to walk as the weather was really nice and it was only a few blocks away.
"You know, Edward, I have this entire dinner planned in my mind, yet I didn't stop to think about whether you could or would eat it. I guess we need to talk about your new diet and how I can help you maintain this fuck-awesome body you brought back from Chicago." She pinched me on the ass as we walked and I just shook my head at her.
"Well, I stay away from a lot of carbs and try to eat fresh vegetables, high protein and low starch. I have been eating a lot of grilled chicken and fish, steaks off the grill, that kind of thing. I just don't do the pizza and burgers thing anymore, and no sodas. I stick to water with lemon or iced tea. Don't get me wrong occasionally I eat a bit of junk food or have a beer or two, as long as I make sure to get in a good workout afterwards. I learned the hard way what shoveling too much junk food into my body does. It wasn't pretty Bell." I felt my stomach quiver at the mere mention of the "Willie J's Incident" as it became known.
"Oh wow. What happened?" I went on to tell her about my overindulgence and the subsequent purge of it. She made a face when I told her how much and what I ate. She did laugh her ass off when I told her Emmett busted me red handed.
We made it to the store and Bella decided to change her menu. She told me she had been planning her famous lasagna but after our talk decided to save that for a special occasion. We settled on some chicken breasts that we would grill, some fresh asparagus, and a leafy green salad. I picked up a special bottle of wine as well.
The rest of Sunday as well as the holiday on Monday was spent wrapped around each other in the apartment. We watched a few movies, played a few games, but mostly we made up for lost time. Making love to Bella was unlike anything I'd ever felt before. The connection I felt with her was electric and all-consuming. She truly was my soulmate in every sense of the word.
By the time Tuesday morning rolled around, Bella was in the shower getting ready to go to class. I decided while she was in class today I would clean up the apartment a bit and go see my parents. I had something I needed to pick up from my Mom that would allow me to start my future with Bella. I needed to pick up my Nana Cullen's engagement ring.
While Bella finished getting ready, I made her some breakfast and filled her travel mug with coffee. I was standing in the kitchen wearing only my boxers and plating her breakfast when I felt her enter the room. She never said a word. She didn't have to. I knew she was there. When I turned around she was smiling widely.
"God, I will never get used to waking up to you in the kitchen, half naked, cooking me breakfast." She walked over to me and pulled me to her, kissing me deeply.
"Mmm Sweetheart, you smell so good. I love your shampoo and body wash. Eat your breakfast so you aren't late." I reluctantly pulled away to plate my own eggs.
"So what's on your agenda today Hottie McCullen?"
"I thought I'd go hang out with Mom and Dad for a bit. I was going to call Alice and see if she and Jasper wanted to get together with us this weekend and maybe hit up a club or something."
"Really Edward? You'd want to go out to a club?" She sounded a bit excited.
"Sure baby. I think it would be amazing to share a few dances with my gorgeous girlfriend. Maybe I'll get you drunk and take advantage of you." I wiggled my eyebrows seductively. As if on cue, she blushed. Damn, I love her blush.
"Fuck, I hate that I have classes today. It's so not fair that you have already graduated and I haven't."
"It won't be long sweetheart. I've been checking out the papers online and starting tomorrow I'm going to be out and about looking for a good job. Time to put this degree to good use."
We finished our breakfast and I kissed Bella goodbye for several minutes. I finally had to push her out of the apartment before things got heated between us. I went to the bedroom to get dressed and head out to my parents' house for a few hours.
When I arrived, I walked in the front door and announced my presence. Mom and Dad were sitting at the kitchen island having coffee and reading the paper.
"Edward! You're home! Oh honey come here!" Mom came over to hug me immediately, seemingly forgetting she had just seen me two weeks ago at graduation.
"Hey Mom, Good morning Dad."
"Edward, how was your flight? I take it you and Bella have um, reunited" the old man wiggled his eyebrows and I couldn't stop the bark of laughter that exploded from my chest.
"Uh, yeah Dad you could call it that." I shook my head at his enthusiasm.
"Oh Carlisle, really? Don't embarrass Edward."
"Mom, it's ok. I'm not embarrassed about anything."
"So tell me son, are you and Bella ok? I know sometimes after a long separation it's hard to get back into the swing of things." Now his tone was serious. Ugh, my parents were giving me whiplash and I suddenly just wanted to be back home with Bella wrapped around me.
"We're fine, really. When I walked off the plane and got to her, she threw herself into my arms with her eyes closed and thought she was hugging a total stranger, just because I felt different than she expected. It was actually funny. Poor thing, she was so embarrassed until she finally opened her eyes and looked at me." My thoughts drifted to the amazing kiss we shared soon after that.
"Oh Edward, I'm so happy that you and Bella have finally seen what we have all been aware of for years." My mother touched me on the cheek and I couldn't help the smile on my face. She was right. Bella and I had always been perfect for each other. I kept myself at a distance because I really never dreamed she would have me when I weighed 305 pounds.
I spent the rest of the day with my parents and filled them in on my immediate plans to begin looking for a job. When I was on my way home, my cell phone rang and it was Emmett.
"Hey Em, how's it going?"
"Edward! It's good man, really good. How did the reunion go? Rosie and I have been dying to hear all about it!"
"It was great man, really great. Bella, she's….uh….well fuck, she's amazing."
"I'm surprised you're out of bed man!"
"Well, it's not my choice, believe me! She had class and I went to visit my parents. I was just headed home to change so I could go for a run."
"Good, that's what I like to hear. Listen Ed, we are still working on our move out there. The gym should be up and running sooner than we thought. Most likely in about six weeks. Rosie and I will be out there in a couple weeks and we'd like to do some photos with you for the advertising campaign."
"Um, ok that sounds good." When he said photos, he reminded me of another thing I needed to take care of.
I got off the phone with Emmett and arrived back at the apartment. Bella would be home in about an hour. I found the pictures she had sent me while I was in Chicago. The address and phone number of the studio she used was on the back and I wanted to set up a couples photo shoot for Bella and me. I thought it would be amazing to do a sexy photo session together and I hoped it would help me get a grip on seeing myself differently. The fact that Emmett wanted me to model for pictures at his new gym made me nervous. Plus, if I'm being totally honest, seeing Bella in that light, looking so sexy would be amazing. I wanted to prove myself worthy of her in every way.
A/N: So it sounds like our Edward is still struggling to accept himself and his new body. Those insecurities never really go away but can his Bella show him that no matter what, he's still perfect for her? Stay tuned!
