*ALL CHARACTERS BELONG TO THE LOVELY STEPHENIE MEYERS
Chapter 14
Edward POV October
I remember as a young boy I would stay up late and I would sit on the stairs and watch what my parents would do once me and Alice went to bed. I would watch my father sweep my mother off her feet and swing her around the room, their favorite song playing softly in the back ground. Their eyes would be so full of love for each other. Had built a wonderful life together. I would watch and imagine what it would be like when I found my princess. The girl I would love and treasure the way I watched my father treat my mother.
Soon I grew up and I had to learn teenage love and teenage heart break. After that I would sit in the same spot on those stairs and watched my parents together, but this time I was wondering how they did it. Why would you want to stay with a person that had the ability to hurt you so badly. To build you up and then tear it down. I decided then that my parents were one in a million. You would never find a love like Carlisle and Esme. I wouldn't find a love like theirs.
That young boy mind set stayed with me though college and I used girl as nothing but to keep me company and to share each other's bodies. I knew I didn't love any of them. As the years passed, the more empty my heart felt. I watch my sister find the love my parents had. Seeing another one in a million. I had a small dose of hope, but it faded just as quickly as it had come. Since I decided that I wouldn't find my love, I married my work and I moved up quickly for awhile that felt good, it was nice to have something need you.
But then one day everything changed. Two people with brown hair and brown eyes showed up in my life and everything was different. My heart was so full of love for those two people that it actually hurt sometimes. Bella is everything I dreamed of and more, then she brings me something I never thought I need. Masen. He is my whole world and I would do anything for him. Be anything for him.
Every second I was away from them was excruciating and when I was with them again it felt like I couldn't get close enough to them. Give them the love they so freely gave me. I had no idea the way my father felt about my mother till I met Bella. I loved her so much, I want to be with her every second, I want her face to be the last thing I see at night and the first thing I see in the morning.
I want to see her in a white dress as she walks down the aisle to become my wife. I want to adopt Masen to show her how much I love him, just as much as I love her. I want to see her swollen belly round with my children. Go out in the middle of the night just to go get her some ice cream and pickles. I wanna be there to hold her and and wipe her tears when we send Masen off to college. I want to grow old with her, to be all gray and wrinkly while we sit on a big porch with all of our grandchildren running about. She made my dreams come true.
I felt so warm and comfortable that I never wanted to wake up. I didn't wake to wake up and be out of this dream like state. The body that was wrapped around me felt to good to be true. To soft, smelled to good, I never wanted to let her go, but sadly I felt the bed shift and my arms went empty. "Nooo" I groaned, keeping my eyes closed I reached out, but came back with nothing. "Come back." I whined.
Sweet giggles filled my ear, making me peep an eye open. "I'm just going to use the bathroom, Edward" Bella was beautifully flush, still naked from our night. "Hurry back, my love" I closed my eyes back rolling over on my stomach and wrapped my arms around Bella's pillow.
I must have dozed off once again, because when I woke up later the bed was empty and Bella was gone. I picked up my phone off the bedside locker to check the time, but found a text from Bella.
Bella: Good morning sweetheart, I had such a wonderful time last night and now I'm not going to see you all day! Sorry that you had to wake up alone, but I had to get to work. Your breakfast is in the microwave. Love you Xoxo.
I can't believe I missed her! I wanted to spend some time with her before she went to work and I freaking slept through it. Damn. I got out of bed moving over to the bathroom and starting my shower. My bathroom was filled with the smell of Bella perfume and her toiletry bag was still sitting on the counter with her bottle of perfume sitting in front. I picked it up holding it to my nose breathing in the fragrance. She always smelled so good and this must be what she's wearing all the time. I will need to remember this brand.
Carefully I put the bottle back to its spot and turned to brush my teeth, when I glanced up in the mirror I saw a flash of dark red. There on my cheek was red lips prints and I had more red lipstick on my lips. That girl. I tossed my toothbrush down and ran back to the bed pushing the covers back to grab my phone.
Edward:Hello, my love. Hope your morning has gone well so far. Just so you know I don't like to wake up alone and I hope next time you will wake up me before you go! ;-) btw red is not my shade. Love you baby. Xxx
I smiled like a goon at my phone, before tossing it back on the bed. She would be in class by now. I went along with my morning routine, washing off the red lip prints laughing softly as I did. It would never be dull moment being with Bella swan.
It was around 12:30 when I finally left the house. I wanted to stop into work before I headed to forks. Charlie said to come at any time today and I really wanted to spend some time with Mase. The office was unusually quiet for a Friday afternoon. Normally it was a flurry of activity with everyone trying to fit in meetings or court appearances before the weekend. The office was always available to anyone that worked here, but who wants to come in on the weekend and you normally can't get clients to come in on weekends either.
"Good afternoon Mr Cullen. I didn't think you were going to be in today" Lauren asked me. Lauren finally got the picture that I didn't want to be with her when I showed up with a kid. She assumed that Masen was my son and I wasn't going to tell her any different, if it keeps her off my back then so be it. "Yes I don't usually come in on Friday, it's my family day, but I had a few things I need to do beforehand. Where is everyone it's like the dead in here"
Lauren shrugged, leaning back in her chair and checking her makeup on a small pocket mirror. "Like I know. It's probably because the big man is not here today" I nodded, I took my mail I had received and took off to my office. Mr Volturi was a very hard working man and he rarely took an off day if he could help it, in less it was for his wife, Sulpicia and I hoped that she was ok with him being out today. I would need to send him an email and make sure everything was alright.
Mrs Newton had sent me an email once again and I just wasn't sure what to say to her. Mike Newton finished rehab and decided that he wanted to get custody of Samantha now that he was off the drugs.
Thankfully for us Mike has been to jail more time then I can count and that looks terrible on his ability to be a parent. Since Mr newton is petitioning the court we all have to go and see this though. He is able to seek out full custody, but that doesn't mean he will actually get it. I know this and I've explained it to Mrs Newton but she is freaking out at the chance of Mike getting Samantha.
Since I'm normally not in the office on Fridays I decide to leave her email till Sunday. Mike is driving me nuts and I'm not sure when him and his lawyer will give up, but I'm not backing down till I've finished this dumbass. I am just packed with cases here lately, it's like everyone is just failing their kids left and right, Hell even our system is disappointing me.
I truly loved my job and I loved being able to help people, but sometimes I wonder if I should have listened to my parents and followed my fathers foot steps and had become a doctor, but even then the job would be just as hard or harder. I would see sick dying people all day and if I lost one...well I just don't think I could have handled that.
Around two I packed up my work and got ready to leave. I was shoveling my work into files when my phone started ringing Bella's ring tone.
For the love of my life, She's got glow on her face. A glorious look in her eyes. My angel of light.
I was all alone with the love of my life, She's got glitter for skin. My radiant beam in the night.
Smiling I picked up my phone holding it to my ear.
Hey beautiful, have you missed me? Her sweet laughter filled my ears and was instantly relax and missed her so much.
You know I have, Cullen. I can only hope the same for you.
Always princess, I miss you when you are just in another room.
Good, that means I'm doing my job right. Have you left to get our boy back? I laughed.
No, not just yet. I had a few things at work I needed to do before I headed that way. I am actually walking to my car as we speak.
Lovely, I'm sure he will be excited to see you. Are you sure you can handle my dad on your own, he owns gun, ya know.
I think I'll survive, Bella. Do we have any dinner plans tonight?
Nope, I actually need to go grocery shopping. If you wouldn't mind to watch Masen an extra hour I can go get something.
Of course I can! You don't have to ask Bella, I will always be available for Masen. You get the groceries you need for the week; so then you don't have to go back again until next week. I can start keep an eye on Mase for you so then you don't have to bring Masen with you.
You are too good to me, Edward. I love you.
Never. I love you too baby, so very much. Now you go get your lunch and I will have Masen call you once your off work. Have a good rest of your day.
Thank you sweetheart. You too.
I ended our call and typed Charlie's address and put my phone into its holder to I could see my GPS. It was going to take me about an hour to get there and an hour maybe hour and a half to get back home with the rush hour traffic. There is a chance Bella will be waiting on us to get back instead of us waiting on her.
it was half past three when I finally pulled into Bella's childhood home. It looked exactly how she described it, only thing that was missing was Charlie's police cruiser parked in front. And the only car in the driveway was Charlie red Chevy truck. I pulled in behind the truck and go out of my car walking to the front porch.
I knocked once and no one answered, so I rang the doorbell and once again no answer. I tried to look though the small skinny windows on either side of the doors but they were frosted glass, and plus the house sounded slight and if Masen was in there, I would highly doubt that it would be this quiet. I gave one last knock before deciding it go back and wait in my car. They should be home soon.
Edward: Hey baby, I just got to your dads house and no one is here and Charlie police cruiser isn't here. Do you think i should call or text him?
Texting Bella first seemed like a good idea, I still barely knew Charlie and I didn't want him to think that I thought Mase wasn't safe or something while in his care. Since I had some time on my hands, I hopped over to facebook and posted my monthly photo dump, it pretty much all pictures of Bella and Masen, I had a few of me in there with them, but they were the only things I had worthy enough to post about. I only really had family on this app and I would delete it, but it makes my mom happy to see my life and I think Bella enjoys it as well. She says it like she gets to have a look into my head.
Bella: I am so sorry, Edward. I just got off the phone with Charlie and him and Masen are headed back to the house now. Masen wanted to go for a ride and my dad forgot to hit send on his text message to you. They should be there soon, I'm really sorry babe.
Edward: Don't worry about it, I am perfectly capable of waiting 20 minutes, gives me some time to catch up on Facebook, lol. Love you and stop apologizing!! 3
I smiled at my phone, re-reading Bella's texts again. She gets so worked up over the smallest things, like I'm just going to run away screaming because Charlie is running a bit behind. I really didn't mind waiting for a while.
Soon after Bella texted me, I heard the police sirens and saw the light coming from around the corner. I smiled, I bet Masen loved this. Hell even I wanted a ride in the car, he's living the dream most little boys want.
I'm sure I was smiling like a goon when Charlie got out of the car and let Masen out of the backseat. "My EDDIE!" Masen squealed at an ear piercing pitch, but I didn't care. To see him this happy to see me. Me! Made me so happy that i could give a flying fuck if I couldn't hear for the rest of time. "MASER! My man, did you have a good time" Masen jumped into my arms and held me tightly, he smelled of his baby soap and welcomed that smell, I could remember that smell for the rest of my life and never tire of it.
"I had lots of fun, Eddie. But I's miss you and Mama so much" Charlie had turned to us now, carrying Masen's car seat. "How are ya, Edward?" He said, holding out his free hand, which I shook. "Good Sir, quite good. I hope Masen was good for you" I said eyeing Masen. Mase giggles looking at his grandfather with those big brown eyes.
"He was real good weren't you, Mase?" Masen nodded. "Eddie, we saw big huge trucks! And they did super cool tricks!" I gasped, poking my fingers at his side. "I saw the pictures, Papa sent to mommy We we're laughing at the video you sent us last night" I put Masen down and told him to go grab his things. And took the car seat from Charlie and putting it in the trunk.
"Don't you need to strap that in?" Charlie asked, his eyebrow raised as he looked at me. "I umm...I actually bought Masen a car seat for my car, that way Bella wouldn't have to take hers out anytime Masen was in my car. But don't worry it's the best rated car seat on the market for safety and if it would make you feel better you can check it to make sure I've installed it correctly" I rushed out, I didn't want to make it seem like Masen's safety was not the most important thing to me, because it was and I would never put him in harms way.
"Edward son. It's okay I'm not worried, I know Bella wouldn't let that boy go in a car that wouldn't be safe. I would like to know your intentions though" I gave him a question look, my intentions about car seats? "Your intentions for my daughter, Ed" I winced at the nickname and was about to explain when Masen's voice cut though. "Papa! Don't call hims Ed, I only get to call him Eddie. It's Edddd waaaarrdddd papa" I pressed my fist against my mouth trying to keep my laughter contained, I didn't even know that Masen knew I hated to be called Ed or Eddie.
"Sorry Edward" Charlie winked at me and grabbed Masen swinging him around. "Mase buddy, where is your bag I only see that you brought your truck out here" I looked by my car only finding a green and black monster truck that almost the size of Masen. "Ohhh yeah, I forgot!" Masen wiggled down running back into the house.
"Where were we?" Charlie crossed his arms and leaned against the pillar on the porch. "My intentions about Bella, I think" Charlie nodded for me to respond. "My intentions are to marry her, sir. If I could marry her tomorrow I would, but I know Bella isn't ready for that. I would love to be able to adopt Masen but that's completely up to Bella and Masen. All I want is to just love her forever and give her anything she could ever want or need"
Charlie's eye looked me up and down, not saying a word. Every once in awhile his mustache would twitch, my palms started sweating and my heart was starting to race. "Well that's all I needed to hear, Edward. Thank you for treating my daughter right and for taking such good care of both her and my grandson" I let the breath I was hold blow out, and smiled. "I am glad, sir. I love them both very much"
"I am ready, Eddie! Hey that rhymes" Masen said with a laugh, "It does, doesn't" I took Masen's bag from him, letting him say goodbye to his Papa. I put his overnight bag in the truck and tossed his diaper bag in the passenger seat, after I closed the trunk. "Don't be a stranger, Edward" Charlie said, coming to stand next to my car. "I won't sir, thanks again"
"Bye papa, love you! Give granny a smoochie for me" Charlie laughed, telling Masen he will pass on his kiss to Sue. Soon me and Maser were on the road and stuck in some pretty rough traffic. "Eddie, why is Auntie Al gonna have a baby?" I gasped, looking into the mirror at his face. "I'm sorry, how do you know Auntie Al is gonna have a baby?" He shrugged. "I heard hers talking to Mommy bout it" Hmm, I wonder if this is why they are wanting to get married. I don't want Jasper to marry my little sister just because he couldn't keep it in his pants.
"Uncle Jazz was telling Auntie Al that he was gonna get hers a new house and its gonna be soooo big" I'm getting a headache! This is to much information at one time, my baby sister is not getting married because she's ready, no she's getting married because Jasper couldn't keep it in his pants. Now they are going to leave Bella high and dry. I know Jasper and Alice pay more of the rent and utilities then Bella, but she didn't know that and I wanted to keep it that way.
"Why don't we keep this conversation to ourselves, ok Masen?" I hated to ask him to keep a secret necessarily, but Bella has yet to mention this and I wanted her to come and talk to me, she never wants to talk and I hope she will ask me to move in with her. My condo is so empty and lonely. I hated it. "Otay Eddie, what's mama doin?" Masen questioned, I'm sure he must be missing her by now.
"She's probably still at the store, why don't we call her?" Masen nodded and I used Siri to call Bella and soon her beautiful voice was coming through my cars Bluetooth.
oooOooo~OCF~oooOooo
Our days passed by as they do each week. I spent Friday, Saturday and Sunday with Bella and Masen. On Sunday we all had family dinner at my parents home, and then went back home to watch a movie. I loved our weekends and wish they never had to end, but as all good things do, Monday morning rolled around and I had to leave super early for court, sadly not getting any loving from my Bella.
We made love whenever we got the chance this weekend, Bella was just so damn sexy and I had a hard time keep my hands to myself, thankfully for me, Bella seemed to be having the same issues. By the time we got Masen to sleep, we were all over each other, we almost got caught by Alice and Jasper while we were having a steamy make out session, which ended up with Bella on the counter and me standing between her open legs.
It was actually a good thing they came home when they did, or else Masen might have walked in on us and that would have been so embarrassing! Allie and Jasper were good sports about it, just laughing it off. Bella's face turned into an unhealthy shade of red and she skidded off to her bedroom leaving me with my snicking sister.
I ended up staying with Bella once again on Sunday night, since I had to go tuxedo shopping with Masen and Jasper and possibly Peter Jaspers brother, but I'm not sure if Pete will be in the wedding.
Peter is ten years older then Jasper so Pete was in college most of Jazz's teen years and then Pete moved to New York once he graduated and never really came back around, late I heard he had a girlfriend named Charlotte, but I don't know if anyone has met the women.
Bella was going to meet Alice and my mom at the bridal shop once she was off of work and My mom was going to come by Bella house and pickup Alice and then drop off Masen with Jasper till I was off work. If I wasn't stuck in court all day I would have been there when Esme dropped off Masen, but things just didn't work out that way.
So now I'm sitting in an uncomfortable chair while I listen to mike newton pathetic reason as to why he deserves full custody of his daughter. The man didn't even have a roof over his head, says that him and Samantha will be staying with friends for a few months till he got a place. Yeah highly doubt that.
"Mr Newton doesn't even have a high enough paying job your honor. What if he lost his job and couldn't afford his car any longer, how will Miss Wells even be able to get to school or a doctors appointment for that matter" I stood from my chair looking at the judge, not paying attention to Newtons glares.
"I completely agree with Mr Cullen on this one" Mary said, this Judge had been on this case since the beginning and she was clearly over mikes shit as much as we all were, hell even Newtons lawyers looked bored. "Mr Newton at this point the court is deciding to Keep custody of Miss Wells with your mother Karen Newton. If you can get a safe place to live, a good paying job and health insurance you can petition DCS to reevaluate the case and see if we can work out a new custody agreement. Case closed" she banged her gravel and Newton walked off the stand with his head hung going over to his lawyer, yelling at him.
"Oh thank you, Mr Cullen! You have save my Sammy" Mrs Newton hugged me tightly, tears rolling down her wrinkly cheeks. "It's my pleasure, Mrs Newton. I am sure Miss Wells will be very pleased or hear about our win" Mrs Newton started jumping for joy and I could help but smile at her. "Congratulations Mrs Newton. Now go tell your granddaughter the wonderful news" She hugged me once more and Mr Newton shook my hand thanking me quietly.
I honestly couldn't see Mike Newton bothering them again with this custody issue. He is coming up on five months sober and that's great, but most of the time when addicts have a lose like today they will go back to the drugs and alcohol. I so wish that Samantha could have both her father and her grandparents in her life, but I guess life is just unfair like that.
It was around five when I was finally able to leave the courthouse. My clients never had to see the mountains of paper work I've got to get though after court days. Once I got though half of it, I left the rest for Lauren to do, she's got to get paid for something other then doing her nails and answering phone, plus she always finds time to fuck all the lonely men and sometimes women in the office. Eww. Who knows where all she's been.
Seeing as I was already running way behind, I just went straight to the tuxedo club in Seattle. Apparently Alice had already picked everyone suits, so we just needed to be fitted for them. I'm just glad that I wasn't going to be putting Masen in and out of tuxes because I could see that ended in a very rare temper tantrum. He's only three and who wants to be shoved in and out of hot tuxedo. Hopefully Jasper fed him something...
I stopped at a Chick-fil-A and got Masen a kids meal, just in case. I also made sure my phone was charged up if he got bored and wanted to play on it, Bella normally doesn't like him on the screens, but it has to happen some times.
Parking my car next to Jaspers Audi and rushed inside with the bag of food in hand. Jasper was staying in front of walls of suits, talking to a man with gray hair. Masen was sitting on the couch clicking his shoes together so they would light up. Next to him sit a tall man hunched over typing away on his Samsung.
"Maser" I said aloud. Masen's head popped up his brown curls swaying as he did. "Eddie! You here now" He jumped up and ran over to me, reaching up wanting me to pick up him, which I gladly did, placing him on my hip. "Did you have a good day with Nana?" He nodded, not paying me any attention, he was more concerned about the bag of food in my hand.
"is that for me Eddie?" He asked, trying to peek inside. "Uncle Jazz didn't give me a snack and I'm so hungry!" As if on cue his little tummy growled loudly, making him blush, as I laughed at him. "It is for you, we better feed that monster in your belly, before it try's to eat its way out!" I poked gently at Masen's sides making his giggle. Masen's laughter pulled Jasper out of his conversation. He turned around giving us a big smile.
"Thank God you bought the kid food! I was trying to figure out what I was gonna do, but you are clearly super dad" I felt a burst of pride being called a dad. I guess that was a dad thing to do. I just shrugged at Jasper, focusing on feeding the my hungry boy. "Thanks Eddie" I kissed the crown of his head, telling him to stay here and not to go off without telling me of Jasper.
"Edward, this is Mr Carson, he's going to tailor the suits if need be" I shook his hand. He was a chubbier man with gray streaks though out his black hair. "Nice to meet you Mr Cullen" I surprised to hear the British accent when he spoke. "Nice to meet you as well. Where are you from?" Carson explained he's from Yorkshire, but moved his family to America a few years back. You don't usually meet people from Yorkshire in these areas and I was quite intrigued by this Mr Carson.
"Edward, you remember my brother Peter, he's in for the wedding" Peter stood shaking my hand. "Wow Ed. You clearly are not the scrawny boy I knew anymore. Is that your boy that was sitting next to me. Cute kid" Peter was definitely starting to show his age of 34 with the crow feet around his eyes and the smile lines around his mouth. You could hear in his voice the years of cigarette smoking, his skin showed the same. I'm sure Jasper mother just loved seeing how 'well' her son is caring about himself.
"Yeah it's crazy what a little meat and vegetables can do for you" I laughed. "And no Masen is not my biological son. He's my girlfriend child, but thank you for the compliment though, I wish he was mine, cause he's pretty damn cool" Jasper patted me on the back, giving me a sad look, but I shook my head and pushed him into the dressing room.
"Come on Wicklock, we don't got all damn day!" Masen was great the whole time we were there. He ate his lunch while watching Jasper try on his tux and the alterations planned out. Once Mase was finished eating, I took him to the restroom to clean him up. I didn't want to make Mr Carson deal with little greasy fingers.
We all died over cuteness over load that was Masen in a tuxedo! I honestly didn't even know that they made tuxes in his size, it fit him perfectly and we were able to take his suit home today. I found out that Peter being his groomsmen was a last minute decision and his tux was not his size, so we had to find one in the same color and pattern as the rest of ours, which took forever. Half way through Masen passed out on the couch with my iPhone still clutched in his hands.
"This kid has always slept like the dead! I remember when he was a baby, we could play music, watch a movie even vacuum. But the minute he sensed Bella was in the room he woke up, wanting to eat. It was really crazy to watch" I smiled wishfully as I listened to Jasper. I wish I could have been there to see Masen as a baby. Bella has showed me tonnes of videos and pictures, but it's just not the same.
"Well he still sleeps like the dead, as you know. But thankfully he doesn't wake up when Bella is in the room" I laughed. "Yeah, she finally 'broke' him of that when he was about 10 months old or so. I didn't understand, but Alice explained it to me and now it kind of makes sense" Jasper shrugged, looking back at Peter, his mind seeming to be else where.
I was the last to get fitted for my suit. It was scratchy and uncomfortable, plus a bit to short, but I looked hot as hell and I knew Bella would like it. "I will add some more fabric to the sleeves, and get you the proper size pants, sir. These are to tight, I have the correct size ordered in time for the wedding" I nodded, shaking his hand.
"Thank you, Carson" Jasper went to pay and promised to keep an eye on Masen while I was back there. I stripped out of the monkey suit and put my work slacks and sage green button down, back on. My court clothes are honestly not much comfortable then the suit, but they will do for now. I pulled my phone out of my pocket and shot Bella a quick text message and sent her the picture I took of Masen in his suit.
Edward: We will be home soon, love. We're you girls able to find everything today? Also, check out our fly boy in his new suit!
Bella must have had her phone in hand, because she texted right back.
Bella: Thankfully we did! Alice tried on a few hundred dresses before she finally picked the second one she tried one!! Masen looks so big in these pics! I miss him...and you, don't I get you see you in your tuxedo, Mr Cullen?
Edward: I think I'm gonna make you wait till the wedding to see my monkey suit ;-) Just imagine Masen's suit, but in my size, lol.
Bella: *Eye roll* I guess you'll just have to wait to see my dress then.
Edward: That's perfectly fine dear. Love you..
Bella: I love you too, you stubborn man.
Smiling I stuffed my phone back into my pocket and walked back out to the lobby. When I walked in Jaspers eyes flashed to mine, his face was deathly pale and he was sweating bullets. "What's wrong Jasper, already getting cold feet on my sister?" I joked, patting him on the back. Jasper gulped, staring at me. "Edward, I can't find Masen" My heart dropped and raced at the same time. "What do you mean. You can't find Masen" I growled, my fists clenched at my side, as my eyes scanned the room for my son.
"Edward! He was just there on the couch where you left him. He woke up and asked where you were and I told him. Carson asked me to sign off on a few things and when I turned around he was gone, I didn't hear him and neither did Mr Carson" I pushed passed Jasper, running back into the dressing room, I pushed each and every curtain back, the metal hooks making a loud screeching noise.
"Masen! Are you in here buddy" Each room was empty no Masen in sight. I rushed back out to the lobby. Jasper was pacing back and forth, while Carson was looking around for Masen as well. "Masen, come on out baby. We're not playing hide and seek right now and I need to know you are ok" Nothing.
Oh God. Bella is gonna kill me. And then she's gonna kill Jasper and probably me again. shit..shit...shit. What am I gonna do. I looked outside and saw nothing, there was an older woman sitting on a bench so I walked over to her. "Excuse me Miss, I'm looking for my son. He's got dark brown hair and he's wearing jeans with Dinos on them. He had a white shirt on and a Thomas the train jacket, did you happen to see him or see someone with him"
She shook her head giving me a sad smile. "No I'm sorry. I hope you find your boy" I cursed under my breath and thanked the women. I took one last look around before going back inside of the store. "Mr Cullen!" Carson called. My head snapped up and I gasped rushing forward. "Oh my God, Masen! Are you alright?" Pulling back I checked him over, looking at his hands and face making sure everything was accounted for.
"I is ok Eddie" Masen told me. His small hands patted my face, giving me a toothy grin. "I found him in the restroom washing his hands, sir" I sighed. How did i forget to check the bathroom! Maybe I'm not cut out for this whole dad thing. "Thank you so much, Carson. You will never know how thankful I am that you found him" I picked up Masen, walking over to the sofa and sitting down.
"Masen you about gave me a heart attack! You can't go off alone, if you needed to go potty just tell Uncle Jazz and he will find me or he will take you. Ok?" He nodded his bottom lip pouting, looking just like his mother. "I'm sorry, Eddie" Masen wrapped his arms around my neck, hugging me so tightly that I almost couldn't breathe. But I didn't care, I was just so glad he was safe.
"Are you made at me, Eddie?" I almost didn't hear him say anything with how quiet he was speaking. But I heard him, I kissed the side of his head trying to comfort him. "Of course not! I love you so much Maser, I was just worried about you" Masen calmed down, laying his head on my shoulder and not wanting me to put him down.
"We are gonna go ahead and get home. Bella will be home soon and Masen will need to eat and get a bath before bed" I told Jasper, giving him an apologetic look. I felt bad taking my stress out on him. I've just never been in a situation like this and honestly I've never been that scared before. "Sorry for snapping at you, I was freaking out" Jasper smirked, and patted Mase's back.
"I probably deserved it. I promised you, I would watch him and then I go off and lose him. Kinda. You just get him out and we will talk about this later" I felt bad to leave Jasper alone, seeing as Peter must have skipped out while I was changing, but I really did need to get Masen home.
oooOooo~OCF~oooOooo
"Bella don't laugh! It was horrible" It was much later. Me and Masen got home, beating Bella there. I got Masen some dinner, of which he just picked at, he did eat a few strawberries, so that's a win in my book. Bella got home when I was cleaning up. She gave me a sweet kiss, before she went to find Masen to give him a bath.
Together we read Masen a book and tucked him safely in his bed. I was still so shook up from what happened at the shop's tonight that I gave Masen more then one hug and kiss goodnight. Bella and I had some takeout for dinner and shared a bottle of cheap wine and now I was telling Bella how I lost Masen for a whole 10 minutes.
"I know it's not funny, baby. Listen when Masen was 22 months old, I lost him on school campus. I had stopped on a weekend to drop off some homework and stopped to talk with my friend, who had some questions about our class. I turn around for two seconds and poof, he's gone. He just vanished in thin air. Come to find out he had wander over to where some boys were playing football and he wanted to play too. I remember freaking out thinking James snatched him. But luckily he was just fine, just like today Edward. He's happy and healthy"
I leaned forward and pressed a kiss on her pouty lips. Bella wrapped her arms around my neck, laying onto her back on the bed. Pulling me on top of her. "I love you Bella" I whispered against her lips. I started to unbutton her top wanting to feel her skin against mine. "You're so beautiful, my love" wrapping my lips around her ear, I nibbled on it making her moan.
Soon her Pj top was on the floor. My eyes took in her breast. Her dusty rose nipples were hard and needy. My fingers ran down her flat stomach coming to rest of the top of her pajamas shorts while my lips moved over her nipple. "Edward.." Bella moaned in my ear. I flicked the tip back and forth with my tongue, blowing hot air over them, making her shiver.
Bella's face was beautifully flush, her lips were falling out for my kisses and who was I to ignore them. Keeping my lips on hers I pulled her shorts and panties down in one go tossing them to join her shirt on the floor. Bella hooked her toes on my boxers pushing them down my legs, for me to kick off.
"Will you make love to me Bella" I asked her. I kept my hands on her hips rolling us over so she was straddled above me. "I don't know how, Edward" Bella's voice was barely audible as she spoke, her face flaming red. She crossed her arms over her torso, trying to hide away from me. "I will lead you. Just do what feels good" Carefully with her feet placed on the mattress she lifted herself and grasped my erect penis in her small hand, rubbing the swollen head against her wet folds.
"God Bella! Your always so wet for me" Every so slowly she sank down onto my cock, wrapping me in her heat. I shivered wrapping my hands on her hips and started moving her in small circles. Each one was blissfully better then the last, as she gained her speed, feeling more confident, losing herself in her pleasure. "That's it baby. Use my cock to make yourself feel good" I gasped out loud when Bella bounced up and back down. "Ugh..I..Oh" Bella mumbled, she quickly found the pace she liked and soon she was coming up and slammed down so hard, that I was a little worried she would hurt herself.
"Bella..Baby don't stop...please don't ever stop" She leaned back, placing her hands on my thighs giving me a clear view of my bare cock disappearing inside her. "Fuck, we are so beautiful together" pressing my thumb down against her clit making her cry out, her hips pumping faster losing its rhythm. "Edward...I'm sooo close...please I need" pushing my feet into the mattress I pounded into her, and she took everything I gave her.
"Cum with me, my love" I gasped, my balls were tightening and I knew I wasn't gonna last much longer. "Yessss. Oh my! I love you so much Edward" Bella placed her lips on mine, swallowing my moans in her mouth as I release inside her. I kept my hips moving in and out, till I slipped out. Bella's slick body laid against mine, her breath panting against me.
We laid like that for awhile, just basking in the after glow of being together again, I traced my fingers around her back, making random shapes and words. "Edward?" Bella's voice cut through the quiet room, sounding so loud. "Yeah baby?" She moved her head looking up at me. I smiled at her, cupping the side of her face, kissing her softly.
"Have you ever thought about selling your Condo, or maybe to rent it out?" Was she finally gonna ask me to move in. "I always planned on it, selling it I mean. The condo is nice for just me, but it's not fit for a family, too small" I shrugged. "Why do you ask?" Bella sit upright moving to lie beside me, pulling the covers up to her chest.
"Just curious, we've just never talked about it. It's non of my business anyway" I scoffed, picking up her left hand, kissing her ring finger. "Of course it's your business, Bella! Your my girlfriend and hopefully one day you'll be my wife. When I decide to sell the condo, I would like to speak with you about it. I'm not going to lie. I was hoping that once I did sell it would be because we're moving in together"
I stared down at her, trying to memorize every detail about her face. Her brown eyes the freckles that covered her nose. The small scar under her lip from a childhood accident. She was so very beautiful and some how. She was mine. "Thank you Edward. I love you" Bella kissed me once cuddling into my side. "I love you too Bella. Sweet dreams my love"
I need to be patient with her. If I move to fast, push her to far then she would run and that's the last thing I wanted her to do. I'm not lying when I say I want to marry her. I can't see my life without her and Masen. Sometimes I wonder if she feels the same about me? Does she love me the way I love her. I certainly hope soon.
Next week we will be in Chicago where Bella and Masen can meet my family. See my old stomping grounds. I can also get my grandma Cullen's wedding ring. If i remember correctly it perfect for Bella. I need to get it cleaned and probably sized. Not to mention the fact that I haven't asked Charlie or Masen. Do I ask Emmett? Jasper didn't ask me.
Maybe my mom would know, but if I told mom. Mom would tell dad and dad would tell Alice and Alice would tell Jasper who can't keep a secret to save his life. I will just ask Charlie first and see if he thinks i should ask Emmett as well. Oh well this didn't matter now, I cuddled my love and closed my eyes, wishing to dream of more brown haired brown eyed babies.
That's it! I hope you all enjoyed. Next chapter the whole gang will take on Chicago, so be looking forward to that.
Hopefully the lemons aren't to crappy, I'm not good at writing those, as you can probably tell! Lol. It might be awhile till the next chapter comes out. I'm moving across the state in a few days and will be busy unpacking! Sooo till next time ~Jade
