Chapter 39: Heavenly

B POV

"It's a surprise." Edward answers as he deposits me in the passenger seat. I roll my eyes as he jogs around the front of the car. I check my phone for the time. It's just after 8.

He enters the car and pulls out of the Dairy Shack parking lot. "We have to make a stop at my house. Here." He pulls out his forest green tie that was around his neck earlier. "Put that over your eyes."

"What?" I ask stupidly.

"I want to surprise you." I shrug my shoulders and tie the piece of silk material over my eyes. He pulls a quick left, then a right then pulls a U-turn then goes in a couple of circles. "Confused yet?"

"Umm, yes?" I huff.

"Good." He answers as he continues. Soon we're slowing. He puts the car in park and my breathing becomes kind of erratic because I can't see what he's doing. I jump a little in surprise when I feel his hand trace over my right hip followed by his hot breath on my face. "Stay here and don't peek." He requests. I can't answer so I just nod my head. He softly brushes his lips against my cheek and then just as quickly he exits the car and I'm left in silence.

I wring my hands nervously but make no attempt at taking the blindfold off or even trying to peek under it. After a couple minutes I force myself to relax. I jump again when the back hatch opens and he deposits something. He shuts the door and a few seconds later is back in the driver's seat and the engine is purring back to life.

"Did you peek?" He asks.

"No," I answer curtly. "You asked me not to remember?"

"Just making sure." He answers as his hand finds my knee and he continues tracing small circles on my jeans.

"Can I get a hint?" I whisper.

"Nope." He pops the 'p'. I huff as I cross my arms and settle further into the seat. He must understand I'm frustrated because he slowly rubs my thigh in what he probably thinks is a comforting gesture but is just heightening my want for him. He turns off onto a dirt road, I know this because of the way the car pitches and jumps over the potholes and divots. Small rocks fly up and hit the undercarriage making pinging noises.

I giggle because the car keeps throwing me around and it feels like a rollercoaster ride.

"Hold on baby." Edward laughs. I quickly reach up to grab the 'oh shit' handle just as the car glides through what feels like a ginormous puddle. I hear the 'whoosh' of the water as it crashes over the car and the reaction of the windshield wipers trying to clear the debris off. After another minute of careening through potholes we slow and stop.

"I think this is as far as we're going." He answers from the darkness. "Stay there." He steps out of the car, grabs his stuff from the trunk and then opens the door for me. He grabs my hand and pulls me out of the car, making sure I don't hit my head on the roof.

"Keep hold of my hand. I'm going to lead the way." I nod once. He leaves me with a quick kiss before he pulls me along. He keeps a manageable pace. Obviously my inability to see anything causes him to keep a slower pace than would be necessary if I didn't have a stupid blindfold on.

I can hear the sound of the breeze as it goes through the trees and the hoots of owls in nearby trees. It's eerily creepy and I reach out and take hold of Edward's bicep, pulling him closer to me. He chuckles and squeezes my hand in reassurance.

"Okay, stay right here." He whispers in my ear before disentangling from me. I whimper when I can't feel his presence anymore and wrap my arms around my chest to try to comfort myself. The air is crisp but somewhat chilly. I hear Edward's movements close by and I focus on that, knowing he's near keeps me from ripping this annoying blindfold off my face and running straight into his arms.

His hands wrap around my waist and he pulls me forward a few feet and turns me around. He comes around behind me and lowers both him and I to the ground. Instead of feeling the cold hardness of the ground I feel a warm cloth type of material. His hands glide along my arms and shoulders until he reaches the knot at the back of my head. His adept fingers pry the material apart but hold it in place. His other hand reaches around to my chin and points my head up. He quickly rips the material away from my eyes and suddenly I see stars. Literally, thousands of stars wrapped in a ribbon of green light.

"Welcome to my galaxy Isabella." He whispers in my ear.

"It's beautiful." I whisper as my mouth drops open. He wraps his arms tighter around me, both our faces turned towards the heavens. "That's the aurora borealis right?" I breathily ask.

"Yes," He answers. "Lucky for us the sun has been super active lately." Just as he says that a streak of light enters and exits the sky in the blink of an eye.

"Shooting star!" I exclaim.

"Make a wish." He whispers. I close my eyes tightly and make a wish with all my might.

"What did you wish for?" He asks a few seconds later.

"I can't tell you or it won't come true." I reply nudging into him a little.

"Fair enough." He shrugs. We both are quiet for a while, pondering our own thoughts as we stare up at the majestic night sky. His warm breaths on my neck and his body pressed close to mine makes me shiver.

"Are you cold?" He concernedly voices.

"A little." I lie, not wanting to reveal how really it's just being around him that causes my body to react this way.

"Hold on." He shuffles back from me a little and I immediately regret saying anything. "Stand up super quick for me." I do as he requests and notice what it is we're sitting on, a spread out sleeping bag. He pulls it back to reveal another one that had been laid down under it. "Okay come back here." He pulls me over as he lowers himself onto the sleeping bag. I follow him down, kneeling beside him as he lies down and adjusts to get comfortable. As soon as he's in position I cuddle up to his side, my head on his chest. He flips the top of the sleeping bag over both of us to protect us from the chill of the April air.

"Better?" He asks, his hand rubbing along the length of my arm.

"Much." I nod and kiss his chest. He squeezes me tightly. I take a chance to look around our surroundings. We're in a clearing, filled with what look like wildflowers that haven't begun to bloom yet. "What is this place?" I ask quietly.

"Nowhere in particular. It's off of a logging road." He shrugs. "I found it with Jazz and Emmett when we came back here in Emmett's truck. We went off-roading and stopped for lunch. I went exploring and happened across this place. It must've been June so there were more flowers. It just blew me away. I've only come here a couple of times since, but never at night. You're the first person I've brought here."

"Thank you Edward. It means that much more now." I turn and slide up his body a bit so that my lips can capture his. Our kiss starts out light and sweet but soon deepens. I hitch my leg up between his and feel the obvious bulge in his pants. He groans as I lightly acknowledge with my thigh that I know it's there. He pushes himself over me and I run my hands through his hair.

"Time to give you your money's worth." He smiles against my lips. I sigh a little as his hands gently unzip my fleece jacket. Soon my jacket is discarded and my jeans are unzipped. His lips are traveling down my body as his fingers work at undoing the buttons of my shirt. He pushes the purple cotton shirt away from my chest and nips at the roundness of my breasts peeking above my pink bra.

"God you have gorgeous breasts." He admires with a flick of his tongue emphasizing his point. I whimper and grip his hair in my fists as I arch into him. He chuckles against my overheated flesh and continues kissing down between my breasts to the curve of my stomach. His head disappears under the sleeping bag as he continues, lower and lower. I laugh at the outline of his form under the sleeping bag but am quickly interrupted by his insistent hands tugging my jeans down my legs.

I lift up the edge of the sleeping bag and peek under to see him lick his lips and stare back up at me. I bite my lip trying to repress the groan that is bubbling up in my throat. With that he grips my thighs in his arms and then leans down to leave a gentle kiss right to the bundle of nerves at my center. I cry out and drop the sleeping bag to drag my hands through my hair.

His lips don't move from where he has attached them to. He continues to lick and suck at me until my hands are fisted into the sleeping bag and I'm grinding against his face. He shoves his elbow and forearm into my inner thigh and opens me up further as he uses his hand to restrain my flailing hips. The release that detonates through my body causes my head to snap backwards and the stars above me to spin like a kaleidoscope.

I'm vaguely aware of Edward emerging from beneath the sleeping bag as my world stops spinning. I move my face back to search for his and find him above me. He has shed his jacket and shirt and is kneeling before me, looking down at me with lusty wantonness, a background of heavenly orbs behind him. My breath catches and my heart aches at how gorgeous he is.

I reach out and grip the waist of his jeans in my hands so that I can work the button and the fly undone. I bite my lower lip and his hands come down on either side of my body, his lips meeting my ear.

"You are so beautiful to me Isabella. Your body is so voluptuous and luscious. Skin, so soft. Taste, so delicious." Those words cause me to increase my frantic need to feel him, all of him against me.

I manage to get his jeans off his hips and half way down his ass before he finally begins to help. He reaches between us and pulls himself from the constricting cotton of his boxers. He lines himself up and in one swift motion sheathes himself in me, causing me to cry out and attach my teeth to his shoulder to silence myself. He hisses at my carnal action and retracts his hips only to push them back into me harder.

He brings his head from my shoulder and looks into my eyes. "I can see the stars reflected in your eyes. It makes them so much more beautiful." I smile and lean up to capture his lips in a soft kiss. His hips slow and he begins to love me, slowly and with everything he has. It isn't long before he has me coming, four word litanies falling from my lips as he keeps pushing further and further into me.

He rolls us quickly so that I am above him. I slowly begin moving, letting my body come down from the high as I catch my breath. His hands grip my hips as he pulls me onto him and then pushes me away. Slowly and with meaning I move my hips in the way he has guided them. He seems confident in how I am moving above him because he lets his hands roam, down my thighs, up my thighs, over my stomach to my breasts. He gently folds down the cups of the bra, one for each hand, he rolls and squeezes each.

I decide to give him more by bending forward, continuing my back and forth movements and allowing him to shower my breasts with suckling kisses. My shirt, which I never managed to completely discard, hangs on either side of him. I moan out loud as he takes each perked tip into his warm mouth and then releases causing the cold air to send shivers through my entire body.

"Oh Bella," Edward whimpers as he detaches from my chest and focuses on my throat. "Baby, move faster." I comply without pause, moving my hips against him more urgently. Feeling my third orgasm start to build I sit up so that I can feel him hit that spot inside me that causes me to fall over the edge every time.

"Oh Bella," Edward moans. "So sexy." He begins moving his hips, thrusting into me as I fall back onto him from every retraction. My hands curve around his stomach, gripping at his sweat sheened skin.

"That's it baby." He moans. "Are you there?"

"YES!" I cry out as my thrusts become more erratic and my body begins to convulse with the power of my orgasm.

"Oh fuck!" He cries out as his hands greedily pull my ass towards his forceful thrusts. He throws his head back, mouth open and groans as he releases himself into me. My heart aches as the blissful expression of his release contorts his face. It is the most erotic and fulfilling experience I've had in my life.

I fall onto him, burying my face in his neck as we both desperately try to control our ragged breathing, his hands running up and down my back.

"That was worth every penny." I tease as I pull away from his neck and kiss him.

"It was worth every star in the heavens to me." He whispers in return.

"You're just saying that." I sigh as I roll to his side and cuddle into him, pulling the sleeping bag around us tightly.

"Am not." He shakes his head. "It's true." We both stare into the sky. As I look up into the thousands upon thousands of twinkling pinpoints of light, I feel tiny and insignificant. "I would trade all of the stars in the night sky in order to stay by your side." He breathily whispers.

My breath catches. "How do you know exactly what to say?" I reply softly as I squeeze him to me.

"Because I love you, Isabella Marie Swan." He answers confidently.

"I love you too Edward Anthony Cullen."

E POV

Two hours after our amazing experience under the stars Bella and I walk back to the car, hand in hand. This evening has been perfect and I'm so grateful that she didn't get outbid. I had told her that it wasn't by Tanya, which was true, but it wasn't a forty year old drunk woman either. I just didn't want her to get jealous or nervous of who it actually was so I told a white lie to ease her mind. I have every intention of telling her, just not right now.

We deposit the sleeping bags into the backseat and I walk her around the car to the door. I let her take a seat and shut the door before going back to my side and dropping into the driver's seat. I manage to turn the car around and head back down the pot-holed ridden road until we get back onto the highway. Within a few minutes we're pulling onto Bella's street.

She sighs as I pull the car to a stop.

"I don't want it to be over either Love." I answer her wordless exasperation.

She looks around me and at the driveway. "My dad's car isn't here. Would you like to come in and watch a movie?" She offers, batting her eyelashes for good measure. How can I refuse? I chuckle and exit the car. She quickly does the same. I wait for her to come around the hood of the car before reaching out and taking her hand.

We enter the dark house and Bella flips the light on. We hear a muffled "oh shit" followed by urgent whispers coming from the living room. Bella looks at me, eyes wide and filled with confusion. I'm sure my face reflects the same thing. She nods towards the living room, a silent request for me to lead the way. I acquiesce and take two steps toward the living room, Bella hot on my heels. As we turn the corner my mouth drops open. I try to turn to stop Bella from seeing but it's too late.

"Oh my God!" She squeaks as she takes in the scene of Sue and Charlie disheveled and extremely flustered. There's an opened and finished bottle of wine sitting on the coffee table. Charlie's pants are undone and his shirt is nowhere in sight. Sue's pants are on but she's in the process of zipping and buttoning them. Her shirt is askew, causing her right breast to be covered but her left one is about a centimeter from showing.

"Bella! Edward!" Charlie mumbles. "You're home early."

"Not really. Curfew is 11 and it's 11:19." Bella responds diverting her eyes from her father as he finishes buttoning his jeans.

"Sorry about that Chief." I give him a small smile apologizing both for having her here late and at the same time not keeping her away long enough. "We didn't see your cruiser in the driveway. We didn't think anyone was home."

"Umm, that's alright. I let Jimmy borrow it, he's dropping it off in the morning." He coughs. Sue has adjusted her shirt and grabs her jacket from the La-Z-Boy. She returns to Charlie for a moment.

"I better get going. Call me?" She asks giving him a pointed look.

"'Course." He nods and kisses her once. Sue scoots pasts us.

"Bye Bella!" She pauses. "Hope you had fun tonight."

"I did. Night Sue." Bella chokes. She turns on her dad as the front door closes.

"Where is your shirt dad?" Bella asks pointedly.

"Well I'm certainly not going to say it had a spider on it." He answers snidely, emitting a blush from both Bella and I.
