We ride in silence except for the music playing. The tension between us driving me crazy. This is the day I've waited on and now I'm nervous 'bout how it's gonna turn out. Is she here to tell me and that little rascal, Emmett, to leave her alone for good? Is she here to profess her undying love?
I don't know, but hopefully it's the latter. My heart might not can handle option number one.
I head out of the city and toward the back roads. Bella doesn't even question me, which is a good sign, I think. We end up at a place my daddy used to bring me fishing back 'fore the drugs got their hooks in him. It's pretty secluded, so we should be able to talk in private.
Bella turns to me as soon as the truck cuts off. "I saw your video."
I scratch the back of my neck and can feel my face heating up. "It was Emmett's video. I can't believe he did that." I can barely keep eye contact I'm so embarrassed and I'm still gonna kill him for doing this to me.
Those big brown eyes bore into mine, and when she speaks, my heart almost stops. "I really loved it."
I'm gonna kiss that kid. Thank you Emmett!
I turn sideways in my seat and study her closely. "Is that the only reason you're here?" I ask. I sure hope not, I need her to be here because she felt what I did.
"It's part of the reason. But I'd already planned to come back. I was just waitin' 'til my tour was over so I'd have some free time, but I really was missin' you a lot."
My heart beats double time. "I was missin' you too." I suppose she knows that, but I figure I'll tell her anyway.
She reaches over and grabs my hand. "You really went to see my daddy?"
"Of course I did. I couldn't just let'cha go. I know we had somethin' special."
"It 'bout killed me when I lost my mama to cancer. I loved her so much. When I found out Emmett lied about that, I got so mixed up and scared that I ran." She scoots closer. "But I don't wanna run anymore."
Before I realize it, her lips are on mine. Hard and insistent. I don't freeze in shock this time; I grab her face between my hands and trace her lips with my tongue. She opens and my whole body relaxes at the taste of her.
Her legs, clad in only a mini-skirt, slide over mine and her heat settles over my aching dick, just where I need her. One of my hands goes into her hair grabbing those soft strands. My other hand heads straight for her tits. She breaks our kiss and uses the time to pull her shirt off. Then she reaches over and does the same to mine.
Before I even have any time to think, her hands are latched into my hair, pulling my mouth back to hers. We kiss until we're both gasping for breath and I'm a little lightheaded.
It doesn't stop my lips from finding every inch of skin they can. While I'm busy kissing and sucking, Bella's taking control of getting us even more undressed.
Suddenly her bra is gone, and her hands are at my pants working my belt and buttons. I raise my hips just enough for her to slide 'em down and set me free.
Her hand closes around me, warm and firm. I immediately seek out her newly-freed nipples and can't resist getting one in my mouth.
My fingers go to her thighs and make their way to where she's covered by lace. My lips switch over to the other nipple right as I push her panties aside and find the wet flesh beneath.
I release her nipple long enough to speak. "You're so wet for me. Can I have you now?"
"Yes, please." She maneuvers around enough that she's able to get her panties off. Her firm body twists and curves in the confined space; I can see her flexibility bringing me much pleasure in the future.
Then she's grabbing hold of me again, and as my hands go to her hips, she sinks down engulfing me completely. I hold her still for a second, both of us needing a minute to adjust to the feeling of being together again.
After just moments, she braces one hand on the roof and the other on my shoulder. She starts slowly working herself up and down while rocking back and forth. My hips meet her every thrust.
I fist one hand into her hair and slide the other to her back applying pressure. Push and pull, lift and thrust. Her tits are on full display and I can't help but take one in my mouth. I can feel her nails dig into my shoulder.
Bella grinds into me then moves one hand down her stomach to her clit. She speeds up her motions and I feel the tightening start in my belly. It quickly makes its way to my balls. I'm doing all I can to hold off, so when I feel her start to clench around me, I let go, and with a few more hard thrusts I empty myself into her.
Once we're both spent, Bella leans back exhaustedly and lays against my horn scaring us both. We look at each other and laugh. Our laughter sends vibrations to my over-sensitive dick so I slowly slide out of her and pull her to me.
She kisses my chest, right over where my heart is and then raises her head to look at me. She gives me a slow gentle kiss, one where I can feel all of the emotion between us. It's palpable. She wants me as much as I want her.
After several minutes of slow easy, dare I say, loving kisses, I figure we needa head back. "You wanna head to my house?" I ask, knowing Em's waiting on me.
She looks around then turns to me with a smirk. "We should probably get dressed first, but that sounds perfect."
After we're both dressed and the windows defogged, we head back. Bella scoots over and sits right next to me, her hand in mine.
When we pull up, Emmett and two other people come running out before I can get the door open. "What took y'all so long?"
I must be looking at him like he's crazy. "What're ya talkin' 'bout?"
Now he's lookin' at me like I'm the crazy one. "I saw a video of you two leavin' the Piggly Wiggly. Some girls from school are sendin' it 'round. They probably already put it online."
"That was fast." I knew those girls were recording us, but I didn't know it'd get around that fast.
"So where've y'all been? That video came hours ago," Emmett presses, wanting answers.
Hours ago? I had no idea we'd been gone that long. Of course we ain't telling him anything and I have my own questions. "How 'bout you tellin' me what you think you was doin' puttin' me on YouTube?" I cross my arms over my chest and give him a stern stare.
"Well, it worked, didn't it? Hey, Bella." He completely ignores my serious tone. And honestly how can I be mad? The kid has a point.
Bella's grinning at both of us. "Hey, Emmett. I loved the video. In fact, I'm thinkin' I might just need for you to sing to me in person, Edward."
Emmett gets a good laugh at that.
"Maybe you could even go on tour and be my backup," Miss Smartass teases.
"You two are so funny. A real riot," I tell 'em, trying to fight a grin. I'm so happy though, that there's no way I can. Instead, I end up laughing with them.
Once we've all sobered up, I notice the two people who came running out with Emmett. They've been standing by quietly while we talked.
Bella speaks up. "So listen, Edward, I'd like to introduce you to my manager and friend, Alice, and her little sister, Rose. They're who brought me here." She gestures to the ladies standing back a bit.
I reach out to shake Alice's hand and give Rose my best smile. I see Em huff and wonder what's up with that.
"So happy to finally meet the man who sang that love song to Bella; it was perfect," Alice says, giving me a dreamy smile. "I hope you guys don't mind but I cooked us some dinner. Y'all took so long"—she gives Bella a smirk—"and Em practically begged me. That boy was starving."
Bella looks to me for approval and all I can do is nod. Supper sounds good to me and hopefully Alice can cook better than me.
As we head into the house, Emmett says he'll be back in a few minutes. Bella and I go into the kitchen to wash up. We can't help it when our eyes keep being drawn to my counter. Luckily Alice comes in before either of us can get too carried away with our memories.
"Can you help me get this stuff to the table?" Alice asks us, and of course, we jump to help her.
Our dining table isn't anything special since I don't have a ton of money and it's usually just me and Em. It can still seat the five of us even though it's a bit of a squeeze. I do have to grab an extra chair though.
Right as we get the table set, Emmett comes back. I notice he's put on some of his nicer clothes and his hair's all gelled. When he gets closer, I also notice he smells like he took a bath in my cologne.
"Emmett, what are you wearin'? And why do you have your hair like that? And why are you wearin' my cologne?"
His face turns red and he shoots daggers at me. "I wanted to look nice for our guests," he says, through clenched teeth. I start to say something else, but Bella touches my arm and gives me a brief shake of her head, but has a smirk on her face.
I feel like I'm missing something, but decide not to worry about it right now and just enjoy dinner.
The new seating arrangement has Alice and Rose sitting on the same side, me next to them, Emmett next to me and then Bella. As I go to take my seat, Emmett slides into it.
"What are you doin' now? That's my seat."
"I figured you might wanna sit next to Bella," he says, but I can tell he's lying.
I just shake my head and take Emmett's usual seat. Alice is a great cook. She's made spaghetti with meatballs, bread, and a salad. I didn't even know we had all the stuff for this.
I almost feel bad for Rose 'cause Emmett's talking the poor girl's ear off. He also keeps offering her more food. I need to get him out more because he clearly doesn't know how to act around guests.
As dinner is finishing up, Alice turns to Bella. "So what are you going to do? I need to know how to go about handling everything."
Bella wipes her mouth and puts her napkin down. "I figure I'll go back next week and finish up my remainin' obligations. Then"—she looks at me and then back at Alice—"I thought I'd spend the rest of the summer with my dad."
Alice smiles and nods. "Sounds like a good plan doesn't it, Edward?"
I'm sure they can tell by the huge smile I'm sporting that I love the idea. "Sounds like a perfect plan."
So all that happened. Lol. It was a pretty busy chapter.
Looks like Bella will be spending some time with Edward and Emmett. Wonder how that will go…
Plus it looks like Emmett might just have a crush.
