Hey guys! So here is chapter 18. Enjoy reading. There will be lemony goodness on Edward and Bella's date ;)

Alice and I headed back to the car park. She told me all about how Rosalie had agree to help her with 'Get rid of the bitch Maria' plan. Alice, Rosalie and I will meet for coffee Sunday afternoon and start plotting. I was really glad that Alice and Rosalie seem to get on so well. It's always a bitch when two of your friends don't get along. Alice drove back to campus a little faster than I was comfortable. Basically, she was going road rage on my ass. Instead of enjoy the wind in my hair and the sun on my face, I was clutching my car seat in fear. Alice just laughed at my terrified expression. Glad she was finding this funny, my fingers were starting to hurt from their death grip on the seat. It took us less than fifteen minutes to get back to campus. I nearly jumped out of the car and start kissing the grass. I was so relieved at being able to get out of the death mobile. I let out a big breath that I wasn't aware I was holding. Alice laughed and rolled her eyes at me.

"You're being a drama queen Bella." Alice laughed at me.

"Eh no, I'm not. It's not my fault you're a bloody speed demon." I complained.

"Oh, stop being a baby! I wasn't going that fast." Alice argued as she handed her key over to a guard. I still couldn't wrap my head around the fact that we need permission to leave campus.

"Alice don't you find it strange that we aren't allowed to leave the campus without permission?" I asked as we dragged our many bags of shopping back to our dorm rooms.

"I thought so at the start as well but then I thought about it and it makes sense. I mean they need to know who is coming and going on the campus. We can't exactly bring normal people in here. It would be very rare that they refuse anyone permission to leave campus." she explained. It makes sense when you look at it from that perspective. Due to the nature of what is being taught and protected here it is very important to be aware of who is on the campus.

"That makes sense," I admitted feeling stupid for asking in the first place.

We chatted about how we were going to do our makeup and hair for the party on Monday night. I was really looking forward to the party now that I have everything sorted for it. Today had to be the girliest day in my life and to my surprise I loved it. We hugged goodbye and went to our respective dorm blocks. I made the trek up the stairs to Edward's dorm room. Damn why did I have to buy so much?! When I finally made it up the stairs to his room, I had to use my foot to knock on the door. Lucky for me Edward was in his room and quickly came to help me. I walked in with dragging the rest of my shopping bags with me. I threw the bags to the floor and rubbed my aching arms as Edward laughed at me.

"I take it you had a good shopping trip?" Edward asked as he chuckled.

"Arg, go away," I whined as he kept laughing at me. I moved and sat on the chaise and kick of my shoes. Oh, it felt good to free my feet from their shoe prison. I wonder if Edward would think I'm weird if I took off my bra? My boobs need to be set free from their lace cage. Edward moved over to me and got down on his knees and started rubbing my feet. Oh, shit that felt good. I might have closed my eyes and let out a loud moan.

"So how did your shopping trip go?" he asked as he kept rubbing my feet.

"It was good. Alice took me to this amazing little restaurant that makes the most delicious pancakes. We managed to get dresses for Monday night. We also ran into your sister and mother as we were leaving Starbuck." I told him as I focused on his face. He stopped his ministrations on my feet for only a second and I saw a worried look cross his face.

"Yeah, they love Starbucks. So did you talk to them?" he asked as he paid extra attention to my feet.

"Your mother wants me to meet her in her office on Monday morning to talk about my power," I said as he looked up at me.

Edward lets go of my feet and came and sat next to me. I was a little disappointed that he stopped rubbing my feet. I felt so relaxed, but I wanted him to keep going.

"I'm sorry about that Bella. I know you're not completely comfortable talking to her about your power. I did talk to her about it and asked her to just be grateful you saved my father and to leave you at alone about your power." he told me quietly. I gave Edward a small peck on his cheek to stop him from worrying.

"It's ok Edward. I'm nervous about talking to her, but I want to do it." I said softly.

"Really?" he asked shocked.

"Yes Edward. I have heard nothing but wonderful things about her. I'd like to trust her with this." I assured him.

"You really are amazing Bella," he said and then crashed his lips onto mine. I pushed my hands into his hair as our lips moulded and move against each others perfectly. The kiss grew heated and suddenly Edward pulled away. His eyes were dark with lust and he was breathing heavily. I wanted to kiss him more. I moved to kiss him again, but he stopped me.

"Bella we need to get going on our date and if you kiss me again I won't be able to stop myself from finding every way that will make you scream my name," he said breathily. Oh my god, would it be bad if I begged him to do that and just skip dinner.

"Bella no. I can practically feel what your thinking. We are going on our date. You have half an hour to get ready and wear something comfortable." he said as he moved away from me.

With a pout, I got up and went to take a quick shower. I quickly washed my body with my favourite strawberry scented shower gel. I put on a small bit of makeup and left my lips nude. I didn't see the point in putting lipstick on since I plan on spending the night kissing Edward. Plus every time I kiss someone while wearing red lipstick it smears and I look like a clown. I got dressed outside in the room so that Edward could take a shower. I decide on wearing some of my newly bought lingerie. I chose a blood red lace bodice bra with a matching thong. He said to wear something comfortable, but I highly doubt that applied to my underwear. I pulled on my favourite pair of black skinny jeans that made my ass look fabulous. I paired it with a white embezzled tulle peplum top and a fitted black blazer. To finish it off, I wore my most comfy black ankle boots and add a chunky bracelet. I felt comfortable and stylish all in one. I was still comfortable and would be able to move and walk if needed. Edward came out of the bathroom with hair that was a perfect mess. He was wearing dark blue jeans, black converse and a black v-neck sweater. He looked delicious.

"Wow, Bella you look great." he said as he gave me a small kiss.

"Thanks, you look pretty great yourself," I said as I watched him bend down to grab a bag. Damn that ass looked kissable in those jeans.

"So what is the plan for tonight," I asked as I grabbed a small bag to stuff my lip balm, phone and perfume in.

"We are having a picnic in my favourite spot," he said as he moved over to grab the book from the bedside table. It was the book I got from the forbidden section. I had forgotten about that.

"Ok. So where is your favourite spot and are you planning on doing some light reading on our date?" I asked with a raised eyebrow.

"I figured after we ate we could browse through the book as we need to return it before Monday morning and we are running out of time." he said as he stuffed the book into his bag.

"As for my favourite spot, we need to break a few rules to get there," he said and gave me a peck on the lips. Edward opened the door and waited for me to walk out.

We left the dorm block and walked towards the back of the university, towards where I met Emmett before we went into the Unknown.

"Edward where are we going?" I asked curiously. Is he really going to take me into the Unknown for our date?

"To my favourite spot." he said simply.

"Ok, where is your favourite spot?" I asked wondering if he will tell me.

"It's a secret, but I will tell you that it is somewhere in the Unknown," he said as looked back at me. Oh, wow he really is taking me into the Unknown. I never thought he would. This is going to be brilliant. I grabbed his hand and started walking faster towards the portal.

"I take it that is alright with you then," he chuckled. I gave him a bright smile and picked up my pace. I sprinted down the mucky stairs and waited for Edward before I go through the tunnel. I had nothing that would provide light for the tunnel and sure as hell hoped Edward was carrying a flashlight or something. Edward eyed me curiously as I stood outside the tunnel waiting for him to descend the stairs.

"Are you afraid of the dark Bella? he asked with a smirk.

"No, I love the dark. I am however not fond of smelly dark enclosed spaces like tunnels." I said firmly. He better not make fun of me. He just chuckled and set ahead of me. I watch in fascination as he made a small ball of fire appear in his hand as he whispered something I couldn't hear properly. That is remarkable.

"Is this enough light for you love?" he asked teasingly. I rolled my eyes at him and he smirked at me. Edward started moving down the tunnel and I followed closely behind.

"So I'm assuming your affinity is fire then?" I asked as we made it out the tunnel of horror.

"Yes it is. It is a lot of fun having fire as an affinity," he said as he took my hand in his and led me through the portal. The Unknown was still basked in darkness with the full moon shining an eerie light on the forest. Edward started walking in the opposite direction of the river and into the thick forest.

"You said that Jasper helped you have your affinity assigned before the ceremony?" I asked wondering why he did that.

"Yes we did it the night before the ceremony one year. I grew up in the royal quarters so I use to sneak into lectures when I was younger. I got tired of watching everyone use their affinity to draw power. So when Jasper came to visit us one year we snuck in and performed the ceremony for each other." he explained as we weaved through the forest.

"How did you get away with practising magic without getting caught?" I asked trying to see where we were going.

"I used to take notes when I sneaked into to lectures and made more notes from the books in the library. When I got a chance and my parents were busy with some sort of event I sneaked into the Unknown. I use to practise magic here as there was no one to catch me. I never truly realised how dangerous this place could be but with my exploration I found a few good things here." he explained as he started to slow down.

"We are nearly there and I'm going to blindfold you," he said as he took a tie out of his bag. I nodded my consent and he tied the tie around my head and everything went black. I thought he would lead me by hand, but he bend down and threw me over his shoulder. I squealed as he carried me to his secret spot. He slowly put me back down on my feet. He kissed my lips and took the tie off. I opened my eyes and my mouth dropped open in awe. I was standing in the middle of a small meadow. The grass was an emerald green that was close to that of Edward's eyes. There were patches of wild lilac flowers and pure white daisies all over the meadow. The colour of the flowers was a stark contrast to the darkness of the surrounding forest. It was like a piece of heaven in the darkness of hell. The full moon illuminated the meadow making it look serene and calm.

"It's beautiful Edward. Thank you for sharing this with me." I said in awe and gave him a passionate kiss.

"I'm glad you like it. I always come here when I need to get away from things. There is a protection spell placed around the meadow so no creatures will bother us here." he said as he set out our picnic stuff.

Edward laid down a classic red and white chequered blanket and set out a range of snacks and sandwiches. I sat down and looked around the meadow overwhelmed by its beauty. Only Edward would find such a diamond in the dirt.

"So what are we eating tonight chef?" I teased Edward.

"Well, there are a range of nuts, olives and cheeses. I also made us a few sandwiches. I have it on good authority that you love a 'classic crisp sandwich'" he said with a smile as he handed me a sandwich.

"You made me a crisp sandwich?" I squealed as I unwrapped the sandwich. I started eating the sandwich and moaned at how good it was.

"Yeah. I asked Emmett what you liked to eat. He said after your trip to England you developed an obsession with crisp sandwiches." he chuckled as I scuffed down my delicious sandwich. Emmett was right, I did have an obsession with them. The first time I asked a girl in a sandwich shop to make me a crisp sandwich she just stared at me in confusion. I had forgotten that it was mainly an English thing and that back home it would be referred to as a potatoes chip sandwich. My favourite flavour of potato chips to eat on a sandwich was cheese and onion. Edward had made me the perfect sandwich. I can't believe he has gone through so much trouble.

"This is amazing Edward. Thank you." I said as I greedily reached for another sandwich. Don't judge me, they are delicious and I can't get enough.

"You're welcome love. I'm glad you like it," he said as he nibbled on some cheese.

"You should try a 'chip butty', they are just as good." I moaned around my sandwich.

"What on earth is a 'chip butty'"? Edward asked with a smile.

"It is a sandwich with butter and chunky fluffy fries." I smiled at the memory of all the different food I got to try in England.

"How would that be any good?" Edward asked in disgust.

"Don't knock till you've tried it," I said.

"Think I'll give it a miss." he said as he popped an olive into his mouth.

"You don't know what you're missing. I was sceptical at first, but they are a little taste of heaven." I said as I finished my second sandwich. After we finished eating we packed everything away and laid on the blanket looking up at the starless sky.

"Why is always night in the Unknown?" I asked as I stared at the moon.

"The dark witches who practise black magic cast a spell. They created eternal night and darkness in the Unknown," he said.

"Why would they do that? What's the point?" I asked.

"I'm not sure but I think the answer can be found in the book you got from the library." he said as he sat up.

"What did you mean earlier when you said that we have to return it by Monday?" I asked as I sat up as well.

"The professors do a check of the forbidden section. Kind of like taking an inventory just to make sure nobody got past their restriction and guarding spells. They do this every two weeks on a Monday. Crap we only had tonight and tomorrow left to read through the book.

"That doesn't give us a lot of time. Do you want to start reading the book?" I asked as I moved to his bag to get the book. Edward grabbed my hand and pulled me onto his lap.

"We can read it later. I have other plans first," he said and then crashed his lips onto mine. Edwards moved his lips against mine slowly. His lips were so soft but was firmly moving against mine. He bit down on my bottom lip and I let out a soft moan into his mouth. I slipped my hands into his silky soft hair. I kissed him back fiercely as I scrape my nails down his scalp. Edward moaned into my mouth and placed his hands on my ass and pushed me into his erection. He felt so good rubbing against me that my head fell back and I moaned Edward's name. Edward trailed open mouth kisses down my throat as he slipped my jacket off. His hands moved to massage my boobs as his lips reclaimed mine. Our kisses became more frantic and heated. I moved my hands down Edward's chest and could feel him shiver under my touch. I grabbed the hem of his sweater and pulled it over his head. Edward looked beautiful bathed in the moonlight. I pushed Edward down on his back and started kissing down his chest. His chest was perfectly sculpted and he had the sexiest happy trail I have ever seen. I ran my tongue along the top of his jeans. Edward pushed his hands into my hair as his breathing got heavier.

I unbuckled Edward's belt and then zipped down his jeans. He was wearing red silk boxer and I thought it was ironic as I was wearing red as well. I pulled his rock hard cock from his boxers and stroked it from the base and ran my thumb over the tip. Edward moaned and his hold tightened on my hair. I licked his cock from base to tip and then wrapped my mouth around it. I started sucking on his cock, moving my mouth up and down and used my hand on what I couldn't fit in my mouth. It felt so naughty and erotic doing this outside. After a few minutes, Edward pulled me back up to him. He captured my lips in a searing kiss that left me breathless. I pulled away and stood up. Edward sat up and looked at me confused. I put my hand up and signalled for him to stay put. I slowly slid off my top and I could see Edward's eyes go wide. Next I kicked off my boots and shimmied out of my jeans. I ran my hands over my body seductively and turned in a circle to give Edward the full view.

"Holy fuck Bella. You look sexy as hell," he moaned. I seductively moved back over to Edward and sat back down on his lap. Edward rolled me onto my back and stood up and quickly removed his jeans and boxers. I licked my lips as I admired Edward's very fine naked form. Edward moved back down to me and his weight and heat felt amazing against my skin. He kissed me passionately as he unhooked my bodice bra. It took a bit longer than normal as there were so many hooks. Fuck why didn't I just wear a normal bra. When Edward unhooked the last hook he ripped it off my body and threw it to the side. He wrapped his lips around my nipple and sucked and nibbled on it. I was moaning and withering under him. He slipped his hand into my panties and started rubbing circles on my clit.

"Edward" I moaned as he bit on my nipple.

"Fuck Bella you're so wet," he purred as he slipped two fingers inside me. He was slowly pumping them in and out of me.

"For you Edward. I'm so wet for you." I moaned. Edward grunted and slipped his finger out of me. I was disappointed at the loss but then Edward tore my panties off. I felt the sting as he tore them off and moaned. He was just as desperate for this as I was.

He kissed me fiercely as he pushed into me. I gasped as he entered me. He felt so good inside me, filling me, stretching me. I raked my nails down his back as his movement grew harder and faster. It didn't take long for me to reach the edge. Edward must have felt I was close as he moved his fingers down to rub my clit. The heat in my stomach exploded and spread all of my body, burning me with delicious pleasure. The pleasure was too much and without thinking I sunk my teeth into Edward's shoulder to stop my screams as my orgasm wracked through my body. Edward grunted and frantically pushed into me and then he moaned my name as he came.

We laid there, wrapped in each others arm trying to calm down. After a few minutes, Edward pulled out of me and got up and passed me my clothes. We got dressed and laid back down on the blanket. We laid happily and sated in each other arms. After a while, Edward let go of me and reached for his bag. He pulled out the book and I sat up beside him.

"You sure you're ready to read this?" he asked with concern.

"Yes I'm sure," I said and moved to open the book.

Wonder what they will find out in the book...
