Edward Pov

"Come on, let me show you the guest room". I start walking up the stairs and she follows.

"Your place is great Edward", She admires her surroundings. I stop at the first door on the right. "First thing that I bought without Carlisle's help"

I open the door, and she takes a step in looking around. "Edward, thank you for this. I would have been okay staying with Carlisle and Esme."

"Of course, B. It's okay, listen, get some rest.", I put ny hands in my pockets. "This way is easier for everyone", she giggles. I take a step out of the room.

"In what way", she turns and looks at me.

"Easier for you to get to work, and-", I drag the word.

"-and?", she pushes.

I rub he back of my head with one hand. Motioning to her body I state. "And easier to make sure you're safe", she smiles.

"Easier on who", She ask looking down, biting her lower lip.

"Easier on me", I say slowly. She's quiet for a moment looking down.

"Edward why are you always so good to me?", Her question throws me off and I look at her with wide eyes.

"People always dote on our friendship", she smiles. "People always said we were the greatest best friends", she looks down but smiles brighter. I can tell that she's crying and it's breaking my heart. I take a step towards her. "Edward, I've always been a terrible best friend to you.", I start to object. "I always took from our relationship, you never gained anything-", she tries to say through her tears. I pull her to my chest by her head pulling her closer with an arm around her waist.

"I got you. That's what I got out of our relationship", I whisper into her hair. "That's all that I wanted or needed"

"You're life has been spent sheltering mines. You have to resent that", she sniffs.

"I don't have to do anything but love you", she leans back and looks into my eyes.

"I'm not good enough for you. I've never been good enough for you. Even your family knew that.", I furrow my eyebrows.

"What are you hinting at Bella?", she looks down and completely pulls away wrapping her arms around herself.

"Edward, our families hate each other, they pretended all those years for our sake, but the hate each other. They worked together to keep us apart", she says. I search her eyes. "Edward, Elena paid my mom to leave town and to take me with her. Carlisle found out what Elena did, and told my dad. My dad asked him to find a way to keep my mom quiet about the reason that we were leaving. Carlisle basically made everyone believe that my dad had a gambling problem. It was a win for everyone. My parents could get out of a loveless marriage, your parents and Elena would be assured that you and I never could be together.", She looks away. "Renee had to take me because that's what the money was for.", I stared at her with wide eyes not sure what to say, nor believe. "When I'd come to town to visit, Charlie and Carlisle made sure that our paths never crossed. They said we were harmful to each other, and meant to be with other people, which I understood"

"What about that is understandable?", I all but yell she flinches.

"Everyone knows that the Danali family has money, and so does the Cullen family", she says it like an explanation. "My family doesn't", she looks down.

"That doesn't matter, if never did. My family isn't like that"

"Who did Emmett just marry, and who is Alice dating?", she says as an explanation. "Carlisle and Esme are okay with it because the Whitlock's have a name and are well off. With me, Edward, you're only getting me. You don't get a long line of family inheritance. I'd be a gold digger in their eyes", I walk to her and grab her hands looking her right in her teary eyes.

"Bella, my family adores you", I say trying not to believe what she's saying. She nods at my statement and looks away.

"Yes they do", she smiles before looking back into my eyes. "As their daughter, and your best friend, anything more, and I've crossed the line. Charlie tried to protect me from that truth, but I found out.", she shrugs. "Why else would your family keep in touch with me", I looked around for an answer but cane up blank. "To make sure that I still wasn't speaking to you", I let her go.

"Is that why you never called me", she frowned.

"When I moved to Jacksonville, I was depressed all summer. I missed you so much. The first three months I never called you because I knew it would hurt to talk to you, and not be able to see you. After that my mom reminded me that I had to let you go so that we could both be happy"

"Except that I wasn't happy, Bella. I've been miserable without you", I see her shoulders shake, and I hear her lightly sobbing, looking at the ground.

"Then I should have stayed away longer", she says through her tears and looks up. "If I'd stayed away longer, you would have forgotten me", I shake my head. "Edward, you and I are meant to be friends and nothing more, regardless of my feelings for you", I walk closer to her and lift her chin looking her dead in her eyes.

"B?", she tries to look away, I lightly grip her chin to keep her eyes locked with my own. "Do you have feelings for me", she tries to look away again, still in tears. I hold her firmly. She closes her eyes and nods. "Do you love me?", I ask her hoping for the best.

"I can't do this to you Edward. I need you to hate me", she tries to pull away, I hold her again by her waist, as she pushes against my chest.

"Do. You. Love. Me", I pronounce each word firmly staring into her eyes. She closes her eyes squeezing as tears fall. She nods. My heart speeds up, practically beating out of my chest.

I lean forward staring her in the eyes hoping that she doesn't push away. I press my lips to hers softly, taking her arms and wrapping them around my neck. I pull her body flush against my own, as I deepen the kiss. She moans into my mouth, biting my bottom lip.

Then she pulls back.

"Edward,", she whispers, wiggling out of my embrace. "My mom will have to give Elena everything back", she says still crying. "Too many people will get hurt around us",

"Do you trust me?", she nods. "Just be with me. Be here with me right now, and I swear that I will take care of everything", she searches my eyes and nods. I reach underneath her hair gripping the back of her head tilting her head to look up at me. I smile. "I've waited so long for you to tell me that you feel the same way that I do. I thought it couldn't be possible, but I had to wait and find out", I lean my forehead to hers, closing my eyes and deeply inhaling. "I haven't been this happy in a long time.", I feel her face turn up into a smile. I press my lips to hers, deeper than the first. I lick along her bottom lip, and she opens her mouth allowing my tongue entry. She moans again, causing my mind to haze over, and the only thought that I could muster up was of her naked. I grip the back of her head, attacking her lips like a starving man, which in a sense, I am. I release from the kiss and move to her neck causing her to shudder. She whispers my name and silently gasps, and it's the sexiest thing that I have ever heard. I growl, lifting her legs, wrapping them around my waist. I stare into her eyes making sure that this is okay, as I take steps forward to the bed. I lean down placing her on the bed, hovering over her. I lightly brush my lips against hers, back and fourth. Her lips part, and I instantly devour them again.

I pull away slightly looking her in the eyes. "I want you", I say as I gather her dress, and place my hand underneath, running my fingers from her knee to her stomach. Her eyes close and she moans. I gather the dress more in my hands on both sides and slowly push it up and over her head, and it falls to the floor. All that she's left in is her bra and panties.

I sit up and look down at her in wonder. Her chest visibly going up and down, she bites her bottom lip nervously. "You are so beautiful, B", I lean down and kiss from her shoulder to her belly, feather light, and she squirms underneath me from the sensation. "So fucking beautiful", I growl against her stomach holding her waist in both hands, my head resting there. She runs her fingers through my hair, with light tugs here and there. "I have to have you", I run my nose along the lining of her underwear, and she moans. I grip at her hips holding her still. I take her underwear between my teeth and slowly drag them down until I can see her pretty lips. I inhale deeply and let it out blowing on the area she needs me the most. She squirms again. I release her hips, and pull her panties completely down ber thighs.

"Please", she whispers. I step off of the bed never taking my eyes from hers. I take off my tie, and my shirt tossing them to the floor. I then kick my shoes off, loosen my belt and pull my pants down eyes still trained on hers.

I step back forward, and hoover back above her, kissing her swollen lips, once, twice, three times, before trailing kisses down to her chest. I grip her clothed breast into each of my hands, she throws her head back exposing more of her neck. I bend to kiss her neck.

Pulling her up, I unfasten her bra, and let it fall down her arms. She lays back down trying to cover herself. "Don't hide from me", I move her arms, and take her left breast into my hand massaging, and attacking her right nipple.

She lets out a deep moan. I nibble lightly, and she mutters, "Mmm", I look up and see her looking down at me licking her lips.

I trail my left hand to her hot center, and lightly rub her clit. "Fuck", I hiss. She's wet and ready. I have to be patient with her though, I want to mesmerizing every inch of her body.

I insert two of my fingers into her, while rubbing her clit with my thumb and savoring her nipple. She moans. "Oh my god", she says with her head thrown back. I remove my fingers and sit up on my knees. I suck her juices off of my fingers, growling from the taste.

"God, you taste good", I say before trailing kisses down to her center keeping my eyes locked with hers. I was just about to lick her hot pussy when there was a knock at the door. I close my eyes and exhale. Bella all but freaks out.

I hover back over her and kiss her lips. "Don't move.", I say before leaning back down and kissing her again. I hop off the bed and walk to the door. It's probably just Alice worried about Bella. "Alice, you could have called", I say as I pull the door open.

In walks Tanya. "Looks like you're more than ready for me", she looks down at my attire, or lack of it. "I brought a gift", I look away quickly.

"I don't want you here Tanya. That-", I point at her baggie. "-is my past and so are you. Just leave", I say. She opens her mouth to speak, but is cut off by Bella.

"Edward, where's your bathr-", Bella comes down the hall wrapped in a sheet and stops short when she sees Tanya.

Tanya looks at her, then at me. "You bastard", she slaps me. She looks at Bella. "Karma is a bitch, remember that Bella", Bella doesn't say anything. "This is not over", she looks at me. "Edward?", she says my name. "I can't believe you"

"Tanya leave", I say again.

"She can't do this to us, Edward. Don't let her", She reaches for my arm, but I grab her wrist.

"I am asking you nicely, to leave, now", I say forefully.

She looks at Bella. "He's going to do you just like he's doing me. He's a monster"

"Tanya, LEAVE", I shove her lightly once more until she's on the other side of the threshold. I close the door.

"We are not over Edward", she shouts through the door. "We never were and never will be"

"Go away, or I'll call the police"

"You can't do this to me", she screeches.

"Get the fuck away from my door NOW!", I yell.

A moment of silence passes and I believe that she left, until I hear crying. "You win again Bella. You always do"
