Me: Twilight will be mine *Laughs manically and makes Mr. Burns like hand gesture*
Edward: No it really won't
Me: *Narrows eyes* you're just a ray of sunshine aren't you! Why don't you go and do something useful like stand in a meadow and sparkle whilst I plot my evil plan.
Edward: No and how is that useful?
Me: it's not, but, I do like watching you sparkle shirtless in the sun yum
Edward: you are a strange person.
Me: Oh I know :D
On with the show!
When I'm on fire
When you're near me
I'm on fire
When you speak
And I'm on fire

On Fire – Switchfoot
BPOV
I walked into the empty auditorium and took a seat towards the front; I let out a huge breath and pushed my hair out my eyes, my knees bounced furiously. I tapped my fingers against my knee and every so often changed to twist the stud in my ear. Edward and I were starting our extra rehearsals today, starting with the sex scene. To say I was nervous would be an understatement. The Auditorium doors creaked open and I saw a head peek through the door, I watched Edward walk down the steps and stop at the row I was sat at. He looked to the opposite side then looked over to me. He walked down the aisle toward me. My breathing hitched.
Would he mention yesterday lunch? Did he even see? I could have been wrong.
I tried to rationalize in my head tried to simplify the situation, I knew he had seen me, there really was no question. I was deluding myself if I thought he hadn't seen, though how I know for sure, I didn't really know. He sat down one seat away from me, he ran a hand through his hair and turned to me, and smiled awkwardly.
"Hi." He looked quite hesitant his eyes sweeping my face, he looked afraid; like he thought I was going to jump across the seats and bite him or something.
"Hi." I returned the smile, not quite sure what to say. "I like your motorbike." I blurted without thinking. His head turned to me his eyebrows shot up.
"You like motorbikes?" He asked I could hear the surprised in his voice.
"Yeah, I want one of my own but; Charlie thinks I'll put myself and everyone around me at risk if I get on one." I laughed shaking my head at the memory. "I still want to get one before I leave for college, I'll need to get a new licence for one though." I stopped after that smiling awkwardly, feeling I may have shared a little too much, but none the less he smirked softly chuckling.
"Well I've heard you're a danger already just on your feet." He said smiling; I laughed softly pushing my hair back over my face. His whole boy had relaxed all the tension that he had held in his posture had melted away
"Well what can I say?" I murmured smiling; we both fell into a slightly awkward silence, before either of us could say anything more Ms Murphy burst through the doors with an exuberant smile on her face.
"Hello you two!" she smiled at both of us and waved her hand to the stage. "Can the two of you go centre stage? I've had some help and I've managed to rustle up a mattress so we can do this properly, I'll get some pillows and what not for the night of the show." She nodded as the two of us walked up to the stage, I swallowed. "I know this must be a bit daunting but was not going to do anything to drastic were just going to set the scene for the sex, then we'll close the curtains. Just give the audience the idea of the consummation."
I let out a breath; it still didn't sound a whole lot better.
"Alright, now I want you to imagine it's your last night together and Romeo you've just climbed up to her balcony, I'm going to let you feel your way through this scene, I'll give you a shout if I think you should do something or if I think it's getting too heavy." Taking a seat she placed her bag on the seat next to her, I flushed bright red at her words, what did she think we were going to do?
Edward walked towards me breathing deeply his chest rising and falling in rhythm with mine, looking straight in my eyes; his hands delicately cup my face as if I'm a precious jewel that will shatter into a million pieces if he holds me harder. Softly, he brought his lips to mine and all thought of Ms Murphy, stage fright and well, everything, rushed from my mind. My whole body set alight with fire spreading all around, down between my legs ending at the tips of my toes.
My breathing hitched as he ran his hands down from my face to my hips, his thumbs rubbing soft circles on the bare skin, in the gap between my jeans and t shirt. His lips pressed a little harder into mine, both of our lips parting slightly under each other. His sweet breath washed over me. I fought the urge to moan under his touch, I moved one wandering hand up to knot in his thick, soft locks, the other drifted down brushing his arm, his chest, his stomach, then without thinking my hand slightly brushed the inside of his thigh.
I froze, but he didn't, he groaned, it was a deep, gravelly sound right from deep in his chest, his grip tightened on my waist, his fingers grazing the inside of my jeans, brushing the edge of my panties. I sighed, he took the opportunity to softly push his tongue into my mouth to meet mine, I moaned and my hips pushed forward slightly of their own accord, Edward growled low in his chest, a deep rumbling that went straight through me and down between my legs.
"You're doing well! Remember we want to keep this tasteful." I heard the teachers voice chirp in the back of my mind, though frankly I could care less. Struggling for breath I pulled back with a gasp, my breath coming out fast and shallow. He moved his lips to my neck, I leant my head back revelling in the feelings shooting all around my body at his soft touch. What was going on with me? My body was reacting to him in such a strong way when my mind wanted to pull away and run in the opposite direction, but I couldn't. My body was being pulled so hard toward him it was so hard to stop.
"Great, now Edward I want you to lower her down now and Bella at this point I want you to remove Edwards shirt, then we can wrap up the scene." Edward moved his mouth back on mine and began to walk slowly backwards pulling my with him, my feet complied with no hesitation. He moved his one hand up and grazes the side of my chest, my whole body burning with desire. He turned us around and began slowly lowering me down. He slowly started to lie himself down with me his body pressed right up against mine. My hands slid under his shirt, tracing the contours of his chest, I slowly, shakily pushed up his shirt revealing a drool worthy set of abs, they weren't over defined, but just defined enough that you could see the outlines of a well toned chest, I ran my nails down his chest, he groaned. Then I felt it.
He was hard.
To say he had a little problem would be an understatement. His hips gently grinded into me, we both moaned. "Edward." I breathed; it was like having a cold bucket of water over us, we were walking the fine line between acting and the real thing this wasn't us kissing, consummating our 'love', we were Romeo and Juliet, not Edward and Bella, we had almost forgot that, well I obviously had and judging by what was pressed into my leg, he had too.
His lips brushed mines stiffly once, twice then he pushed off me delicately, and hissed when he grazed himself against my leg. I had to separate myself from this, from all of it, the play, Edward, everything. Otherwise when this is all over I'll get hurt. We both slowly stood up slowly, carefully holding each other's gaze. His face was conflicted, frustrated, almost angry, at what? I have no idea, there was also surprise written across his features. He discreetly and quickly put his hand down to readjust himself, before turning round to look at Ms Murphy.
"Well done, if you can do it like that on the actual day, you'll be absolutely fine." She smiled softly to herself and murmured something to herself and murmured something too soft for either of us to hear. He picked up his discarded shirt from the floor, the muscles in his back flexing as he leant down to grab it; I swallowed my mouth dry, then licked my lips to moisten them. My eyes stayed on him as he pulled the shirt over his head completely exposing his chest and my eyes wander to a soft trail of light hair leading down into his boxers that just peaked over the top of his jeans. "If there's anything you need."
Apart from a dry pair of panties?
"Or any questions you have, don't hesitate to ask, alright you can both go, but remember rehearsal after school tomorrow!" she called after us both as we both rushed off the stage wasting no time in getting out of there as fast I could, feeling claustrophobic under the teacher's enquiring gaze and Edwards heated stare. I pushed through the double doors a gust of cool air blowing round my face and body, I stood taking in a few deep breaths trying to velar the foggy haze in my brain.
I headed quickly towards the front entrance out towards the parking lot and rushed through the pouring rain to my truck; I sat in the driver's seat and gripped the steering wheel aimlessly flexing my fingers. I felt the need to punch something, why did he have to make me feel this way? My whole body was still tingling; I could still feel him pressed against me, every touch of his fingers, the way he moved...
No, no I can't think that way, I can't become attached, I mustn't. I won't.
I'll just imagine him in drag, that should do the trick; he would never be able to pull off a dress. I laughed to myself, imagining Edward in a black sparkly dress and long haired wig, and he could borrow come of Laurens make up she wears enough for two anyway. I shook my head, I must have looked crazy to anyone walking past, I nodded resolutely, I'll be fine, I could do this. I finally put the key in the ignition after sitting there for god knows how long, I started to pull away then I heard the familiar purr of a motorcycle. I watched as Edwards motorcycle peeled out of the parking lot, zipping past at an alarming speed.
I pulled out of the parking lot and made the short journey home, Charlie's cruiser wasn't in the driveway so I knew he wasn't home. I had always hated that thing, as chief of police Charlie always drove around in the police cruiser, mostly because we don't have another car, because we can't afford one, also because I think Charlie gets a sick amusement from watching speeding cars slow to a crawl as he drives past, I have to admit I enjoy that part too.
Rose has her own car which she saved up for, for her seventeenth birthday; she had her license at 16 but couldn't afford a car of her own. I have my truck which Charlie brought for me, Rose and Jasper to share but when Rose bought her own car since Jasper was more interested in saving for a new guitar he had been wanting for a while, so now Jasper just hitched a ride from Rose or myself, we all drive together to save gas.
Rose's car was parked weirdly on the driveway, which most likely meant Jasper had parked it. Like you would assume, I'm not the worst driver of the family that would be Jasper, it's a wonder the boy passed his test. Whilst learning to drive he ran over a selection of mailboxes and into bins, he narrowly missed the neighbour's cat and worst was when he ran into the back of a pedestrian's legs whilst reversing out the drive. When Jasper first got his licence we were all shocked, Rose and I called everyone we knew, and told them to get off the roads.
You think I'm joking.
I walked through the door still eyeing the car, shaking my head, I walked into the living room to find, Rose, Emmett, Jasper and Alice all sat in various positions on the couches, watching a movie. I walked in and took a seat up against the biggest couch under Alice feet which were tucked tightly under her leaning against Jasper, whilst Emmet and Rosalie where squashed together on the smaller couch in a similar position.
"Hey guys." I muttered the TV screen pulling me in, everyone mumbled their hello's, I wasn't entirely sure what we were watching but it looked interesting enough, I perked up a bit when two of the characters starting having a sword fight. I never understood why sword fighting went out of fashion; I mean really who doesn't want to carry a sword around in a really cool belt to pull out at any sign of danger. It's a shame they didn't do fencing or sword fighting in gym, I'd be much more willing to participate if they did.
About another hour past of sword fighting, princess Buttercup and kisses, then the credits rolled, I stretched and yawned, curling my toes and fingers, arching my back.
"How did your extra rehearsal go?" Alice asked waggling her eyebrows suggestively. I just scoffed and rolled my eyes.
"My extra rehearsal? Not much." My mouth went dry at the thought of our extra rehearsal and how I'd like to do a little more rehearsing.
"Of course we believe you" Alice rolled her eyes then smirked. "You looking a little flushed, you feeling okay?" She snickered.
"I'm fine." I threw her a glare; she just laughed and rolled her eyes.
"Eddie getting you a little hot under the collar?" Emmett laughed joining in the relentless teasing, I bristled.
"No!" I checked myself, realising I just made myself seem all the more flustered. Damn, "I mean no, of course not." I fidgeted, under everyone's amused stares; they all looked at me as if to say yeah right, "He's not!"
"Spare me." Rose drawled, she turned to Emmett, "Boys you two go upstairs and play, me, Ali and Bella need some girl time." She pecked Emmett on the lips before he pushed of the couch reluctantly, pouting like a petulant four year old.
"But Rosie we wanna know too!" He whined, Jasper snorted behind him.
"I certainly don't." Jasper scoffed. "She's my sister."
"Boys. Go." Rose rolled her eyes
"Fine" Emmett grumbled, jasper elbowed him in the ribs.
"Man, c'mon I can kick your ass again on the Xbox." Jasper drawled cockily, Emmett glared at him and elbowed him back.
"You did not beat me, plus I wasn't even on my best game." Emmett insisted, "You have no chance." Jasper raised an eyebrow.
"Bring it on." With that they both barrelled up the stairs pushing each other as they go, their banter could still be heard until we heard the sound of Jasper's bedroom door shutting. Both the girls turned to me with smiles on their faces, Rose had moved onto the couch with Alice whilst I swivelled round on the floor to face them, lying across one of our huge sofa pillows I grabbed of the sofa
"Dish the details!" Alice squealed, her blue eyes sparkling with mischief.
"We urm, did the sex, consummation scene today." I mumbled, knowing my face was getting redder by the minute.
"No wonder you seemed so dazed when you got home." Alice giggled, then frowned. "You seemed a little bit, I don't know, a bit off too, I think, was everything okay?" I looked at her, I suppose I shouldn't be surprised Alice has always been perceptive and Rose, well, she can read me like a damn book.
"I just, I don't know, I don't want to get in too deep, I don't want to fall then have no hope of pulling myself back when this is all over because whatever chemistry we have now will disappear when we finish all the performances in a couple of months time." I sighed brushing the hair out of my face. "And the chemistry between us could be fake; he could just be a better actor than we give him credit for." I rambled, still not completely sure how to sort the mess going on in my head, I mean imagining him as a drag queen is okay and all but it's not the best long term solution.
"Bella, when the two of you have a scene together, you should really see it for yourself, its completely hot, trust us, it's there." Rosalie grinned cheekily. "And anyway, he'd be stupid to let you go at the end of this, and trust me he seems interested." Well if the thing poking in my leg earlier today was any indication...
I felt like I was being stupid, something wasn't necessarily going to come out of this anyway. Rose nudged me with her foot giving me a reprimanding stare.
"Stop it! I know what you're doing you're worrying about all this. Just breath it's all going to be alright." She scolded. "Anyway enough with the depressing stuff, that's not happy talk, tell us what we really want to know." She grinned.
"Is he as good as he looks?"I giggled at their eager faces. I only had to say two words and they were off.
"God yes." I broke out into a huge smile, as they started to bombard me with questions; they became especially chatty when I mentioned Edwards not so little problem. They wanted to know if he felt as big as all the girls who had "allegedly" slept with him, although I personally wasn't entirely convinced. That they'd all slept with him not that he wasn't big, I don't have much to compare it to, hell, I have nothing to compare it to, but I'm pretty sure Edwards bigger than average.
I am a virgin, I will admit it, I'm not some sex starved maniac, but I do want to get my first time over and done with so I can enjoy sex. I know some girls want the whole shebang, when it comes to their first time, I mean don't get me wrong I'm not going to throw myself at the first person that offers but I just think it's probably not worth all the hype, from what I've heard its sore, uncomfortable and generally awkward depending on who it's with.
I'm not really into the candle thing either I love candles but while candles are nice I'd be too much of a fire hazard, I'd like to keep all of my hair and vital limbs intact.
After an hour of chat we set up camp in the living room and somehow came to the conclusion that Alice was staying the night, it was Friday anyway so we didn't have to worry about being up early. We slipped a movie on; we decide to have a John Hughes marathon, Pretty in Pink, Breakfast Club, Sixteen Candles and Ferris Bueller's Day Off, all classics, all must haves for a girl's night. Emmett stayed too, upstairs with Jasper they hadn't come down at all, we put it down to the fact they had questioned each other's man hood so they probably wouldn't emerge until the morning.
Charlie got back later than expected, he told us that he'd had a lot of paperwork to sign down at the station and got caught up playing pokers with the guys. He seemed different though happier, I didn't ask, it was nice to see him less tired looking, he rolled his eyes looking at the three of us all sprawled out around the room, he just warned us not to make too much of a mess and that we had to clean up whatever mess we made, before putting up his gun belt and jacket and going upstairs to his room.
We just managed to watch Ferris Bueller's Day Off before we lost the will to stay awake and shut off the TV and pulled up the covers that we had grabbed from my room, on to our make shift bed out of the sofa cushions and the huge sofa pillows.
I snuggled down and fell asleep to thoughts of Edward, and his not so little problem.
Hope you liked! Once again happy holidays everyone! I hope I can get another chapter out before the New Year all fingers crossed!
Oh and I have the next chapter for my other story in the process of being beta'd so that should be up soon too if anyone here is waiting for that! Anyway my lovelies!
Much Love
