*Lemon alert in this one. As usual – don't like/don't read. But according to some people, girls can't have sex with each other, so it's not really a lemon *rolls her eyes*….

**Chapter 56**

"How much I love you, my beautiful fiancée." she whispered while we entered the hotel room.

Slowly I pulled down the zipper of her dress, planting open mouthed kisses on every inch of exposed creamy-white skin on her back. A few moments later the ruby colored silk dress landed on the ground, leaving her in nothing but a black lace thong. My fingertips brushed over the tattoo on her left hipbone while her dainty hands twisted into my hair to pull me closer.

"You have still too many clothes on for my taste." She mumbled against my neck before the tip of her tongue swirled over my earlobe, sending a wave of pleasant shivers down my spine.

Her full lips found mine and I moaned into the sweetness of her mouth when she sucked my upper lip between her teeth to nibble on it.

"Undress, Bella…" she whispered, her voice sounding hoarsely.

"…but do it slowly…I want to watch,"

She wasn't really going to make me do this, was she?

A smile flashed over her pretty pixie-face when she sat down on the edge of the bed.

"Don't be embarrassed it's just me…and if you do it, you can watch me too."

Her hand cupped her right breast for a moment, squeezing the rosy nipple that hardened under the touch of her fingers. She bit her lip to keep herself from moaning.

I felt my panties getting soaked just from watching her. With trembling fingers I started unbuttoning my dress, hoping that the candle light in the hotel room would somehow magically manage it to cover the blush on my face.

The fact that she was looking at me while I was doing this made the skin on my entire body tingle.

I unclasped my bra, letting it fall down on the soft carpet next to me.

"Touch yourself for me, Bella."

"Ali, I can't…"

"Shhh…of course you can. Come here, honey."

I walked over to the huge bed and wrapped my arms around her neck. She cupped my face between her hands and planted a soft kiss on my lips.

"Lay back and close your eyes."

She took my hand in hers and squeezed it gently before she guided it to my left breast. My thumb rolled over my nipples, making them pebble instantly. Fuck that felt good…

"I love watching you, when you touch yourself, Bella." she whispered, leaning down to suck one of my hard nipples into her warm mouth.

Almost automatically my hand moved lower until I reached the small stripe of soft curls between my legs.

"Yes, just like that. I bet you're already slick and warm down there."

God, what it did to me when she talked to me like that…

I felt the muscles in my stomach tightening as my fingertips circled the throbbing pearl of my clit but I knew that I didn't want to come like this so I took several deep breaths through my nose to calm myself down again.

"Make love to me. I want to feel you." My voice was barely audible now.

Her slim thigh touched my overheated flesh that left a trail of slick wetness on it when I started rocking my hips back and forth.

"I want you closer," she whispered, pulling us around so that my inner lips nudged against hers with every small movement. I whimpered slightly when I felt how wet she was. Her essence mixed with mine while our bodies melted into one. Our hips found the same rhythm and when my clit lightly brushed against hers, a low moan escaped her lips.

Faster and faster we moved our bodies against each other, while more wetness poured out of my entrance…or was it hers? Her legs started trembling slightly and then I felt her clit throbbing against mine. She was so close to me now…so close and no one would ever manage to separate us again.

Our bodies were covered in a thin layer of sweat and I knew that her skin would have a deliciously salty taste now. My name died on her lips while the after waves of her climax triggered my own. A few heartbeats later I tasted salty tears on the tip of my tongue. She wrapped her arms around me, pulling me closer against her pixie-like body, while her fingertips started massaging my scalp in small circles until I finally fell asleep.

"Congrats on your divorce, Bella. I'm really happy that you got custody for the little one. You were so worried about that."

"Thanks, Benjamin." I mumbled while I continued stuffing several books back into a wooden shelf.

"He still has visitation right though. That's worse enough."

"Hmm,"

"And now you're going to marry my sis…I mean Ali?"

"Your sister, you can say it. It doesn't hurt, Benjamin."

"Yeah, I know. It's still…well, so strange somehow. Don't get me wrong. I like her a lot. She's fun and she looks so much like my mom. But I don't know how I'm supposed to feel like. I've never had a sister before."

I played with the rose-gold ring on my left hand and nodded my head.

"I guess it would be difficult for me too, to suddenly have a sister or a brother."

"You're an only child too, aren't you?"

"Yes, I am. And I'm pretty sure that I don't have any unknown siblings…or half siblings walking around. You shouldn't worry too much about how you should feel like, Benjamin. Whatever you feel, it's okay. Ali is so relieved that you don't hate her and want to get to know her better."

"Hate her? Why would I hate her?"

"For complicating your life and then there's the fact that your mother didn't want to keep Ali. Doesn't that change the way you see your mom?"

"Nope, definitely not; you see, my mom was too young when she had Ali and our family in Romania, they are…well, quite conservative to put it mildly. She did what she thought was right back then and later…when she married my dad, it was too late to fight for custody for the child."

"Hmm, I see."

He cleared his throat and started writing down a list with books that we would have to order in the next days.

"And to answer your earlier question - yes, we're going to get married."

"When?"

"We've not really talked about that yet, but soon." The sooner the better, I added secretly in my head, while my lips automatically twisted into a smile.

"Isn't that weird for you that you were married to her brother before?"

I dropped the book I was holding and kneeled down on the ground to pick it up again.

"Kind of…I'm just so sorry that her parents aren't supportive of her. They blame her for everything that happened although it's clearly not her fault. My marriage was over before I met her. I just didn't want to see that."

"Maybe they just need more time to accept the fact that you and her are together now?"

"I don't know if time will change anything. Carlisle is so stubborn and Esme still has trouble dealing with the fact that Ali is that way."

"I'm sorry to hear that."

"Don't have to be. It's not your fault. I just wished that I could do something to make Ali feel better about this. She doesn't deserve the way they're treating her as if she were the black sheep of the oh-so perfect Cullen clan."

"Perfect? Her father knocked up a sixteen year old girl and your ex-husband is a violent asshole who isn't even allowed to see his own child without psychological supervision. They're so far away from being perfect like I am from being straight."

Benjamin's eyes – today they were a bright blue color – sparkled sheepishly at the end of the statement.

Then he leaned down and started putting several books into box.

"What are you doing? Aren't we going to sell those?"

"Of course, we're going to sell them, Bella. I'm just putting them away, because Ela is coming here today."

"Ela is your stepmother, isn't she?"

"Yes, she is. She's so supportive. I don't want her to get a shock from all the cocks on the covers."

"But she knows that this is a shop for gay people, doesn't she?"

He nodded his head while I kneeled down to shove the box with the not stepmom-appropriate books into a corner.

The doors of the shop opened with a loud speak that was followed by the tripping noise of stilettos on parquet floor.

"Hello Ela, it's so good to see you."

"Hi Benjamin, the shop is so cozy. I can't believe that Seth managed to turn a fishing supply shop into something so beautiful."

She walked through the shelves and touched several books with her fingertips.

"Remarkable,"

There was something in her melodic voice that sounded familiar to me although I couldn't place it, but I knew for sure that I had heard it before.

The dark-haired woman turned around and when I looked into her light grey eyes, my mouth fell open.

Her own face was still heart-shaped like I remembered it, but the ugly glasses were gone together with the braces and the freckles. It still wasn't an overly pretty face, but it was kind and friendly.

"Bella Swan?"

"Angela Webber?"

"Actually it's Angela Popescu now. What are you doing here?"

"I'm working here. God, I can't believe it's really you. Didn't your parents send you to an all-girl boarding school for your senior year because your father had some kind of paranoia that you would get pregnant?"

"Yes they did. Jeez, it was so ridiculous…as if I had been interested in any of the immature baby-faces in our class."

She put a finger in her mouth and made puking noises.

Benjamin raised one eyebrow in confusion.

"You know each other? Don't tell me that you used to date. That would be too weird."

"We did not date…Bella was in my high school."

"Hmm,"

"So, you're Benjamin's stepmother?" I asked her after a few awkward moments of silence.

"I'm married to his father Stefan but I'm afraid that I'm not really old enough to be the stepmother of a nineteen year old."

Benjamin chuckled slightly and planted a kiss on her cheek.

"You're doing okay."

"Thanks," she mumbled, taking a book in her hands. When she turned it around her face turned into a bright crimson color.

"What the hell is that?"

"If you don't know what that is, that explains why you and dad don't have kids."

"Your father and I don't have kids, because we don't want any. He's busy enough dealing with you and your crazy family in Romania."

She put the book back on the table and sighed deeply.

"Do me a favor and don't suggest showing the shop to your uncle while he's here. I'm afraid; it would give him a heart attack or something like that."

"You don't have to worry. I'm not planning on bringing him here. I already promised dad that I wouldn't do that."

"Good to hear that, Benjamin."

Then she turned to me, her coral tinted lips twitching into a bright smile.

"What are you doing tonight, Bella?"

"Ahm, I don't really have plans. Why are you asking?"

"We could have dinner together at my house. Oh please, say yes. It's going to be so much fun."

XOXOXOXOXOXOXO

[A/N] I'm surprised that none of you figured it out before…Angela is Benjamin's stepmom. I felt that Bella needs some new friends. I mean, Ali has Jasmine has her best friend (although some of you really seem to dislike her character lol).
