Chapter 2: Shit Storm

Edward

Music played from the sound system, low voices came from the television, the buzz of the tattoo machines hummed and there was constant background chatter. I could vaguely hear the receptionist, Piper, as she welcomed the clients in.

I heard Liam hiss in pain as Jimmy started the new tat on his bald head. The three of us hung out a week ago and talked about what Liam wanted into the early hours of the next morning.

I was tucked away in the break room, with the lights off, nothing but the orange glow of the tip of my cig lit the room. I'd just finished a portrait tattoo, that took eight hours, with multiple colors. I came in earlier than usual so I could finish by the late afternoon. The only thing I wanted to do was chill with a square and enjoy the semi-quiet before I headed home for the night.

I sat there and debated if I was gonna swing by Bella's or not because I promised her, I'd come over after I got off work. The thing of it is, I lived about fifteen minutes away from the parlor but to go to Bella's I'd have to pass my apartment.

I really did want to see her, maybe even spend the night if both her parents were working tonight, but fuck, I was too tired. Maybe me and Bella could crash for a little while together, then I could lay the wood.

Her parents were cool, but I could tell they tolerated me for Bella's sake. I was always a bit nervous; this was the first time I'd met parents, my previous arrangements never got that far.

The slam of the door, I sat up and opened my eyes trying to adjust to the bright light that had been flicked on.

"What the fuck." I held my hand over my eyes, still not quite adjusted to the light yet.

"There you are, I've been looking for you." Piper clicked her tongue.

I smashed my cigarette in the ash tray. "Did a client come in asking for me or something?"

"Nope." She popped the p.

"So, what's up then?" I raised an eyebrow.

"You?" She bit her bottom lip.

I snorted. This broad.

"Nah, Piper." I shook my head. "I told you, I'm with Bella now. Whatever the fuck we were doing is over now."

She smirked and sashayed towards me. "She doesn't have to know.

Her shirt was the first thing to go. She slipped it over her head and threw it across the room.

And there they were, just like so many times before, full and round, sitting up in a black lace see-through bra, her pink perky nipples waiting to be sucked.

I'm fucked.

"Baby, you know I always make you feel good." She bit her bottom lip.

The head between my shoulders told me to get the fuck outta dodge, but the head in my pants told me to sit tight.

I swallowed thickly, as Piper continued to walk towards me.

I heard the small thump of her short, tight, skirt hit the floor as her blue eyes met my green ones.

It was hard to resist her round, curvy hips and those never-ending legs, and don't get me started on her tight little ass.

Maybe… I could just fuck her one last time and get it out of my system?

Piper continued to walk towards me, smiled down at me as she pulled at the hem of my t-shirt and slid it over my head.

I grabbed and kneaded my fingers into her hips and pulled her down towards me.

She kissed down my chest as she turned one of my nipple rings, I moaned, and my hips jerked up.

She knew this was one of my weaknesses.

After she got the response she wanted, she got on her knees and made quick work of unbuttoning my pants, I slightly sat up to pull my jeans and boxers down, and my dick sprung free.

She looked at me seductively and licked her lips. "Are you ready?"

I inhaled and jerked my chin.

Piper wrapped her hands around me and pumped before she swirled her tongue around the head and took my shaft in her mouth.

I threw my head on the back of the couch. "Shit."

She took me back as far as she could and used her hand for the rest, as she set her pace.

She hummed around me and took her other free hand and played with my balls.

Damn, this girl gave a hellva BJ.

I was greedy, I wanted more.

Even though I knew I shouldn't.

I wrapped my fingers around her strawberry blonde hair and gripped it to pump deeper in her mouth.

Fuck it, she wanted it, I was gonna give her what she wanted.

Her head bobbed up and down as she met every thrust I gave.

She reached up for the other nipple ring, twisted it, and hummed around my dick again.

"Fuck." I lost all sense of rhythm and fucked her mouth unrestrained. I knew any second I was going to blow my load.

My heart started to pound; my mind went blank.

I felt the usual throb in my balls, as my stomach tightened up.

I wrapped my hand around her hair to hold her in place.

My eyes rolled back, lids shut, my body rocked as long streams hit the back of her throat.

"Fuck, fuck, fuck." I felt surges go through my body in waves.

I couldn't move from the orgasmic stupor I was in.

I let out a breath through my nose and looked into her blue eyes and immediately felt sick to my stomach, they weren't brown.

Usually I felt light, good, after I released but when I looked down and saw strawberry blonde instead of dark brown, reality set in.

What the hell did I just do?

Why did I let this shit happen?

Piper licked me clean and ran her hands up my chest, in expectation of round two, like we used to do.

I grabbed her wrist. "Stop."

"Stop?" She chuckled. "I don't think you really want me to."

She fell back when I stood up from the couch to pull up my boxers and pants. "We're done."

"No, we're not." She got on her knees in front of me and tried to unbutton my pants again. "Baby—"

I removed her hands, side stepped her, grabbed my shirt and put it back on.

"Look, Piper, this…" I waved my hand between the two of us. "…should've never happened."

She stood up. "Edward, what the hell are you talking about? You didn't have a problem a few minutes ago."

I shrugged my shoulders. "You came in here looking for me."

Yeah, it was a shitty move, but I was pissed at myself for letting it happen in the first damn place.

"So, it's like that now? You got off, but I can't." She crossed her arms and raised both eyebrows.

"It's like that sometimes."

Her head jerked back.

I almost felt bad for her.

Almost…

I stepped closer to her. "Piper, I'm sorry, okay. I shouldn't have let it go that far. I'll take the blame." I ran my hands through my hair. "But please stop this, I'm with Bella now, in a committed relationship. I can't do this with you anymore."

She snatched up her skirt off the floor and laughed without humor. "How committed to your precious Bella were you when you were fucking my mouth?"

I flinched back at her words. It was the truth, and there wasn't a damn thing I could do to change what happened.

We stared at each other for what seemed like forever, but I'm sure it was only a few seconds.

I didn't know what else to say.

Yeah, I was wrong, but I wasn't the only one. She knew what she was doing before she walked in this room. I'll own my part in this shit, but not hers too.

Maybe if I reason with her, we can forget the whole thing ever happened.

I took one step forward but still kept a distance between us. "Okay, listen, Piper."

I tried to be calm, consoling.

She crossed her arms across her chest and gave me a cold stare, I'd never seen before.

"I'll apologize again, for my part, but you played a part in this too."

She arched one eyebrow.

"C'mon now, it's not like you didn't know me and Bella were together. What did you expect to happen when you came in here?"

"What has always happened, we have mind-blowing sex." She blinked at me.

This was new for me with her, but this was also the first time I've denied her.

"You've never cared before, what's so different this time?" She tilted her head to the side.

"I don't know." I shrugged. "It just is…I like her."

She scoffed. "Oh please." She rolled her eyes. Don't you dare tell me you're in love with her."

That's exactly it, I'm in love with Bella, but I wasn't having that conversation with Piper. That was reserved for me and Bella, only.

I crossed my arms and jutted my chin but remained silent.

She shook her head. "I don't believe this shit. I've been here this whole time, giving you whatever you wanted, and you love her?" Her voice raised with her every word.

"Piper calm the fuck down, there are clients out there." I clenched my jaw. "I've apologized twice." I held up two fingers. "I'm not saying it again. I didn't ask you to come in here, you did that on your own." I scoffed. "What we had was fun, but you knew we were just fucking.

She jerked back and threw her skirt at me. "You sonofabitch."

The skirt flew over my head, she couldn't throw.

"It should be me you're in love with." She pointed to her chest. "Not some bitch that could never please you like I do every time." She waved her hand dismissively.

"Cool it Piper. I'm try'na be nice with yo ass, but I'm not gone let you talk about Bella like that. You're gonna have to accept I'm with her now and what we had is over."

"Mmm…over, huh?" She picked up her shirt in the corner.

"Yep, the sooner you accept it the better."

She walked directly in front of me and poked my chest. "I don't have to accept a motherfucking thing." She chuckled. "Perhaps Bella needs a rude awaken to who you really are, the real Edward Cullen, the cold-hearted bastard that's incapable of loving anyone except himself." Her voice shook.

"Piper, I'm not playing with you, this is between me and you." I grabbed one of her arms. "You said she didn't have to know."

She jerked her arm away from me. "I lied. And why should you get to fuck me and be happy?"

My pulse elevated, I wanted to punch her, but I punched the wall instead.

She jumped back.

My hand was red and throbbed from going through the wall, but it wouldn't compare to the pain this would cause Bella.

"Goddammit Piper—" My chest heaved up and down.

The door swung open and hit the wall. "What the hell is going on in here?" Jimmy yelled.

He looked directly at me when he opened the door and saw the hole in the wall and my swollen hand. When his eyes landed on Piper still standing in her bra and panties with her skirt in her hand, he raised his eyebrows.

No one said anything as Jimmy's eyes went from me to Piper waiting for an explanation.

Jimmy narrowed his eyes and titled his head. "Piper put your fucking clothes on, now." He closed the door quietly. "Do I even want to know why your clothes aren't on in the first damn place?" He looked at me when he asked her that.

She slipped her shirt over her head. "Ask Edward."

"I'm not asking him, I'm asking you. He's fully dressed." Jimmy sneered.

She wiggled into her skirt. "Because you don't have to take your clothes off to get your dick sucked."

"Piper shut the fu—"

Jimmy cut me off. "Edward chill, I got this." He faced Piper. "Consider this your last warning before I fire you. You're on suspension without pay for the next week. I'll see you next Thursday."

"Are you kidding me?" She shrieked.

"Do you want me to make it permanent?" Jimmy's nose flared.

Pipers nostrils flared. "No, it's…it's not fair. Why isn't he suspended too."

"You let me worry about him. Plus, you were the only one that was practically naked." He shook his head. "This conversation is over; get your shit and I'll see you next week."

He was gonna tear me a new one after she left.

She took a breath and nodded but stopped in front of me. "Remember what I said Edward." She muttered.

"Piper get the fuck outta here, don't say another motherfucking word to him or you're fired." Jimmy spat.

She narrowed her eyes but left the room without another word.

Jimmy looked me up and down. "E, what the fuck was that about? Are you still boning her? What about Bella?"

I raised my left hand to run it through my hair but forgot that was the hand I punched the wall with. "Shit."

"Yeah, shit is right dumb ass." He chuckled. "At least you didn't ram your working hand through the wall."

"She pissed me off J."

"Why were you in here with her anyway?"

"I came in here after I finished up Eric. She's the one came in here looking for me."

"Did you fuck her?"

"No." I shook my head.

He stared at me searching my eyes for the truth. He was my best friend; he knew when I was lying or not.

He nodded when he found what he was looking for.

"But she sucked you off, right?" He smirked.

I looked away, not able to look him in the eye.

"E, she a scorned woman now, you know she's going straight to Bella with this shit, and better believe she's gonna add more than what really happened. You're fucked dude."

I sighed heavy. "I tried to reason with her crazy ass but now she's saying she should be the one I'm with."

"Dammit." I flung my body on the couch.

Jimmy started toward the door but turned around and faced me. "You need to tell Bella before she hears about this from someone else, cause…."

Cause Piper's gonna tell someone. He didn't even have to say it out loud.

I groaned as I rubbed my hands over my face.

That was probably my best bet, but I'd fucked up too many times before. This could be the final nail in the coffin, if she finds out about this.

"I know there's no way around it, people are gonna get hurt, it can't be avoided. You just gotta decided how to handle it." He opened the door. "Get some ice for your hand and don't you fuck another female in this building, or your ass is fired." Jimmy closed the door behind him.

I sat there for a moment trying to figure a way out of this but there was no way. The only thing I saw was a shit storm headed my way.

A/N: Okay… so that happened. How do you feel about Edward…is he a Dickward or Slutward? What about Piper? Do you think Jimmy handled the situation right? Please share your thoughts.

As you can see, this story will definitely be Rated M. I know may not be too happy with me now, but hold on tight for this bumpy ride ;)

See ya next week!
