Bella
I was so confused, hurt and really angry, so when Esme suggested we get away to their cottage I agreed readily. Garrett just kept watching me, holding my hand firmly and rubbing soothing circles on the back. "How could they do that to me? Then just come back as if nothing had happened? You know when they returned I felt guilty for harbouring ill thoughts about how easy they all left me! I ranted.
"I just want to tell them all to go Fuck themselves!" I wrenched my hand away and spun around shouting at the sky "Shit! Damn! Hell! Bugger! Fuck Fuck Fuck!" before flopping down onto the ground. "Feel better now Little Swan?" he asked me patiently. "Yes thanks" I laughed and so did he. "I can't even guess how you feel, my Bella, but I'm here for you, whatever you want to do, we'll do! okay?" he said sitting down behind me and wrapping his arms around me tightly.
"Thank you, Garrett, for being here and for wanting to be with me! You are the one bit of calm in this whole Shit storm, I'm so glad you found me before I got any more entrenched in that dysfunctional family!" I say to him and I meant it, "I can't believe I thought them all so wonderful and perfect! Ha! They're anything but. Well, I've had my eyes opened now and I really don't like what I see" I huffed out at him.
"They're just like humans, trying to be something they're not and failing miserably. Fine, but why take me down with them? They could have just left me alone last year! Why would they do that, what crime did I commit to be treated that callously by them?" I ask him, the hurt evident in my voice. He picked me up and cradled me to his chest as he ran us quickly through the forest, finally slowing and setting me on my feet, before taking my face between his hands, smiling down at me.
"You did nothing wrong Little Swan, this is all down to Edward wanting, what was not his to have, also Carlisle's inability to say no to that arrogant little prick!" he assured me. "But the behaviour of the other's I have no idea! Can't they think for themselves, for Christ's sake? What was Jasper playing at allowing his inferiors to dictate to him like that! Does Alice have his fucking balls in her handbag? But what I want to know from you is, do we really want to be part of this coven now? Knowing all we know about their inability to protect you in the past?" he entreats me and I'm so happy, not about the situation, but that he's asking for my opinion and really cares about my answer.
"I'm not sure sweetheart, I'm so annoyed with them I want to say no! But when I cool down, I might see it differently. So I think we should forget about the Cullens and just spend this time together, just you, me and that stunningly beautiful cottage over there!" I say pointing to what could almost be a fairytale cottage set in a Disney film. He smiles, offers me his arm and we walk forward into a dreamlike setting, it's to die for. Ah solitude away from the nosey neighbours, safe in the arms of this amazing man and maybe a little bit of seduction hopefully later! I hope Mr Disney doesn't mind too much.
Garrett
I was so incensed by the attitude and behaviour of the god damn Cullens, I was ready to explode before we left their house, but my main concern now is Little Swan. She keeps swinging between anguish and anger, she was used and mentally abused by them most certainly. But she wants time for us now and I'm all for that. I hope once she's eaten and relaxed some, I might be able to pursue a little romance, who am I kidding I want to ravish her naked body for hours! But I will go slowly, I must go slowly, maybe if I say it enough to myself, I'll actually manage it!
Well, this is about the nicest damn cottage I've ever seen, Esme sure has the magic touch. Bella seems really taken with it, we have to talk about the future sometime, so now's as good a time as any. "Little Swan, what's your thoughts on our future, like when and how? You know the logistics, what we tell your dad?" I ask as she's eating some of the sandwiches Esme packed for her. "H'mm, well I should have been going to College soon, was meant to be Alaska with Edward, but I was also accepted into Montana under my own steam! Which would work better as that's where Jasper's place is" she muses.
"We could go look at that soon and then I'll do the graduating and leaving for college stuff here! We could tell him your taking over a horse ranch in Montana, but we're keeping in touch while I finish school, then you'll help me settle there and we'll see each other while I'm in college etc. How does that sound?" she asks. I think we have a plan, once in Montana we can speed up the timeline if she's ready, but as long as we're together I don't care how long it is before the change. I nod and reply "Sounds good to me Little Swan, that gives him time to adjust before we do anything irreversible, Yes?" she smiles and that's settled.
Well I hope everything we decide is that easy, we settled out on the back deck, I lit the burner and we listened to the sounds of the early evening, with the wildlife in the far distance as nothing every came to close to a vampire. We talked books, my upcoming driving lessons, Bella was really looking forward to teaching me something new. It was a few minutes later I noticed how quiet and contemplative she was, as if unsure if she could talk to me about something. "What's on your mind, Little Swan?" I ask and she flushes and says "Well to be brutally frank! Sex! I...! Well...! Can...? Is it possible..? For us too...! Will we be able to have sex while I'm still human?" she eventually blurted out, "He always said it wasn't possible, it'd be too dangerous! but as everything else, he told me was a lie! I don't think I believe it now!"
"Oh Little Swan, he really did a number on you, didn't he? Yes, that's the simple answer, I would just have to be a bit more restrained with you, than if you were a vampire, but yes my angel we can. But and it's just a little but! We need to work up to it, okay and that's for your benefit, not mine because it would be your first time, Little Swan and not with a human male, we need to ease into it, so to speak. Basically I'm a lot harder and less flexible to your softer body than a human male would be, so we have to learn all about each other's bodies first and learn how they would be, when we come together" I say and she is enraptured by my every word, taking it in like a sponge. "Like for instance, after sex a human man becomes soft, we don't, well technically we soften but not that much, recovery time is instantaneous really, we don't run out of energy, get tired or need sleep! Therefore we can keep going indefinitely! So I need to hold back for your benefit or I could, to be blunt, Fuck you to death!"
Bella
Wow, he's amazing, he holds nothing back, answers all my questions without reserve and I just love him for that. He treats me as his equal, his partner, his mate! Each hour that passes I feel more and more attached to him as if by a thick cord, connecting our bodies together, heart to heart. "Is this the mating pull I'm feeling Garrett?" I ask and he nods smiling and pulls me gently towards him until I'm cuddled up in his lap. "It will grow every day in intensity until we mate fully, but it's more uncomfortable than painful unless we're separated by distance and then it can be excruciatingly sore, I'm sorry angel!" he says gently and I hug him telling him we better not get separated then!
I was feeling so relaxed and happy in Garrett's arms and he didn't feel as cold to me as the others did, even Edward and I always thought him a little warmer, so I mentioned this to him. This brought on more explanations about mates and in one day I was learning more about vampires than in the last year and a half it was fascinating. "Little Swan? I want, no need to do something to you soon! Have you heard about scenting?" I shook my head no and he said that mates normally marked each other by biting them, but as biting wasn't possible yet for either of us he wanted to scent me, this was to warn off other males he said. "So what do you need to do?" I asked and he laughed and said basically he needed to lick every inch of my skin.
Oh, my! this would be interesting, he said although it wasn't really a sexual thing it normally turns into one with most mates. But he would control the urge to claim me and just scent me, for now, but we could no doubt find a way to relieve the tension like we had earlier. I nodded and he lifted me up and took me inside to the lovely and cosy bedroom. He said I could keep my underwear on if I was too nervous, but I wanted him to see me and me him, so I shook my head. He gently and almost reverently stripped off my clothes and then when I had on only my bra and boy shorts, he peeled off his own. Well that saves on the washing then, I thought when I realised he was going commando, I raised an eyebrow and he shrugged. "Never could make the decision, boxers or briefs! So I don't bother at all!" he laughed.
He scooped me up and lay me in the middle of the bed, then just as gently as before removed my underwear, I thought I'd be embarrassed but I wasn't one little bit, actually I was almost proud, needing to show my mate my body, for his validation I think and he didn't fail me. "Oh Little Swan, you're so beautiful! You're everything I imagined and more! The colour of your skin is like porcelain, your body will fit with mine perfectly, you have no idea how enticing and alluring you are to me, you own me body and soul my angel and I give them willingly." God that was so romantic, he couldn't have put me more at ease if he'd tried. He started at my feet, licking, kissing and generally turning me on, if anyone had told me a week ago that someone licking your feet was sexy, I'd have laughed in their face, but I'm not laughing now, I'm moaning! I won't survive this on my whole body, I'll spontaneously combust before then.
Garrett
Dear god in heaven, I don't think either of us can stand this for long, her scent is overpoweringly sexy, I'll have to help her relax or I'll never manage this and I know just how! "Angel do you trust me?" she nodded and I rolled her onto her side and settle behind her, no way could I do this face to face, I wouldn't fucking be able to stop myself claiming her. I was licking and kissing her neck and shoulders now, whispering how much I loved her into her ear, then I slide one hand past the dip at her waist to stroke and caress her breasts alternately, I slide my extremely hard and weeping erection between her thighs and told her to clench down for friction, then I used my other hand to rub her fully engorged clitoris.
She turned her head to me and I claimed her lips as I began to slowly thrust myself between her now tightly clenched thighs. This was not going to take long we were both almost ready to explode. Then she did the most amazing and sexy thing, one of her hands was already stroking my outer thigh and squeezing my butt, pulling me closer to her and when I felt the other encircle my erection as it thrust between her legs, but she had run her palm over herself first covering it in her juices and thus making me glide easily through her hand, I sped up my thrusts and the finger on her clit and we were both gasping and moaning, Bella was really close to orgasm, as she had started to curse once again. And that was it for me, I erupted into her hand, as she climaxed drenching me in her own sweet sticky ejaculate, I had to turn my head quickly and bite down on my arm to stop me from biting her. Fuck me that was overwhelming, we had to turn her soon or I'll do it by mistake when we finally have sex.
