Disclaimer: I own nothing but my ideas. Beta position open! Thank you guys so much for all the love you've shown my story, I really appreciate it I really do read every review. Once again, I try to catch all of the grammatical errors, but that doesn't always happen. I apologize for any lingering errors y'all find.
I had a couple people ask if Bella was pregnant, I address that in this chapter. For the way the story is going, I don't feel like that's something that needs to happen right now. Bella doesn't have her diploma yet, her and Sam are just getting together, Emily left because she was preggo…it's just a lot. But it's not necessarily off the table for the future. Let me know what y'all would like to see happen though! There's a lot of fluff in this chapter. It needed to happen, so bear with me!
Ch. 6 – Sheer Pink
Bella POV
I woke early the next morning, I was just too jittery. I made breakfast and packed a lunch for Charlie and I and picked up the house, trying to kill time until it was time to get ready. I'd even jogged with Leah for longer than usual, though I was sore, I needed to calm my racing mind.
"So how was it?" She smirked as we made our way through branches and roots. I shot her a look.
"Don't look at me like that, you have that sex afterglow." She winked and twitched her nose as I blushed.
"Fuck off." I mumbled.
"Mom told me to remind you that your appointment to re-up your depo shot with her is later this week." Leah told me. I'd almost forgotten. I'd go and visit Billy that day too, I'd already be in La Push at the clinic.
"Thank you." I told her as we slowed in front of my house once again. She waved as she drove off. I stood against the counter drinking my coffee lost in thought.
"You okay Bells?" Dad asked as he came downstairs. I smiled lightly.
"I'm good, just couldn't sleep." His mustache twitched.
"Alright…thanks for the lunch, I'll see you later." His eyes held mirth in them as he turned to leave for work.
"I wonder what that was about…" I muttered.
I put my empty coffee cup in the sink and made my way upstairs to the bathroom. I put my running clothes in the hamper and turned the shower on. I went to brush my teeth and stopped.
"No wonder Charlie was laughing at me." I thought as I got closer to my reflection. My hair was an absolute rat's nest, but that wasn't the issue. I had the darkest hickey I'd ever seen marring the apex of my neck and shoulder. I could see the indents of his canines on my neck.
I looked like I had been mauled. I couldn't remember the last time I'd ever had a hickey, let alone one this dark. My eyes trailed down my body and brushed the light bruises I had on my hips as well. I could see the indents of Sam's fingers where he'd held on as he'd pounded into me from behind. My face heated at the memory.
"Thank God Charlie didn't see these." I muttered. The hickey was bad enough. I wasn't trying to hide the relationship from Charlie, but Sam and I hadn't made anything official. I'd wait until then before bringing it up to him.
I stepped into the warm stream of the shower and soaked until the water turned cold. I got out and started my regular routine. I found a salmon-colored chiffon peasant blouse that had a higher neckline but was still sheer enough to show the mark if someone knew what to look for. I tucked it into a pair of ankle dress pants and put of a pair of loafers with a tiny heel. I draped some decorative necklaces on, added a watch, shoved some earrings in, and dabbed on some perfume. I went back into the bathroom and threw my hair up into a wispy bun and curled some of the pieces that feel around my face. I even threw on a nude lipstick with a little gloss to complete the get-up. Was I putting in more effort than usual? Definitely. Did I care - NOPE!
I grabbed my lunch, another cup of coffee to go, and headed out to Bessy. She took a few turns to crank over before she came to life.
"I need to go look at cars this week." I mumbled to myself. I was going to get stuck on the side of the road one day if I didn't.
I got to the office before anyone else and unlocked the door. I sat down at my desk and started to answer the emails that came in during the weekend. It was a little too early to call clients back, so I made a list of who to call and what they needed. My heart started to race as I heard someone pull up outside. My nerves were fluttering as the door opened. I instantly deflated.
"What Swan, not happy to see me?" Paul smirked as he spun in a circle. I rolled my eyes.
"Thrilled, Lassie." I deadpanned.
"But I brought you a present!" He told me as the door jingled again.
"Thanks for opening the door, asshole." I heard a feminine voice huff.
"I'm sorry sweetheart, I needed to come disappoint Swan real quick." Paul turned and kissed a woman on the head.
"Ang!" I jumped out of my chair and ran to hug her. A large belly was in my way. She smiled and hugged me back.
"It's so good to see you, Bella." She tightened her grip. I hugged her for a few more seconds and pulled back.
"Why are you out, aren't you due any day?" I ushered her over to the couch.
"She threatened to cut my balls off if I didn't bring her to see you today." Paul grumbled as I laughed.
"Good." I smiled back at her.
"Sam got called to a job site this morning. We just finalized the plans last week and the client is being a real pain in the ass. I'm going to meet him there after I walk you through what we want done here next." Paul looked at me. I got up and put my arm out.
"Lead the way, Lassie." He rolled his eyes as Angie laughed. He turned on the lights that led down the rarely used hallway.
"This is a storage closet. We need to clean it out and keep any extra supplies that we might need inside of it. We can store last years' records too, if need be." He gestured to a cluttered door on the left. The door on the right, opposite of it opened to a conference room.
"We need to get this place cleaned out and order some furniture for it so we can set it up to meet with clients. Same with my office and Sam's. I'll leave you to the design, just get our approval before you order everything." He smiled.
I went and opened the last two doors down the hallway. They had windows that lined one wall which gave beautiful views to the forest.
"These rooms are incredible it won't be hard to spruce them up and order furniture." I spun around as I took it all in. I'd like to add some artwork around the office too. Get me photos of some of the work you've done." I smiled over at him. We walked back out to my area and I handed him a folder.
"Here are the sheets and check-ins for this week's safety meeting. Make sure the new helpers come by and fill out paperwork. Bring everything back to me when you're done." I told Paul.
"And here I thought you were only good for pining over sparkly vampire dick, way to prove me wrong, Swan." I kicked him in his shin as he laughed and backed away.
"I have to get going, I need to help Sam. Take care of my woman Swan. If she goes into labor, she's your responsibility now!" He laughed and ducked out of the door as Ang threw something at him. I turned to her.
"You're a saint. I don't know how you deal with him."
"It's the sex." She smiled devilishly. I laughed and blushed lightly.
"If he didn't have such a magic cock, he'd be in a lot more trouble." She grumbled as I laughed with her.
"Let me finish my stuff really quick and then I'll come sit by you. You can help me pick out the new office crap!"
"Take your time." She smiled at me and pulled out a book.
I went back to my desk and called back those that I needed to. I logged in hours for the guys, sent out the estimates and bills that were needed as well. After a couple hours I finished the most daunting things and grabbed my laptop so I could sit next to her again.
"How have you been?" I asked her as I sat down.
"Good, I'm just ready for this baby to be here. I feel like a bloated whale." She laughed and rubbed her stomach.
"May I?" I asked as I pointed to her belly.
"Of course!" She smiled and put my hand on her belly. I startled slightly when I felt a small kick against my palm.
"They like you." She smiled back at me.
"Are you having twins?" I stared in wonder.
"No, just one. We decided not to find out the gender yet, though Paul is convinced it's a boy." She smiled as she rubbed her belly.
"He or she will be beautiful, just like you." I rubbed her belly again. She blushed. I bit my lip lightly as I thought of what to say next.
"I'm so sorry Ang. You were going into your second trimester when the Cullen's were still here. I was so wrapped up in my own world and I wasn't there for you. You were my first friend here in Forks and I wasn't there when you needed me most." I told her as a few tears escaped. I felt ashamed. I was hurt by the family that abandoned me, but that didn't give an excuse to be a shit friend.
"It took me six months before I was even aware that I'd been lying in bed for just as long. I don't know anything about kids, but I'll come over and help whenever you need. Give you and Paul a break. But just don't tell Paul that, he'll abuse it." I laughed as I wiped away a couple tears. She threw her arms around me and hugged me back fiercely.
"We all go through our trials Bella. I don't blame you for having your own problems, I'm just glad you're ok and I'm sorry I couldn't be there for you either."
"Now all that sappy shit is out of the way, let's look at some office décor. I heard you and Sam like desks, so let's look at some sturdy ones." She smiled wolfishly at me.
"You've definitely been hanging out with Paul for too long." I deadpanned and we laughed.
And that's how we spent the day. She helped me pick out new stuff to show the guys and I dusted the offices in the back to prepare them for deliveries when Sam and Paul approved of the furniture for their offices. We ordered lunch in and chit-chatted until the little bell chimed against the door as Paul made his entrance again. He spun in a circle and slicked his hair back.
"Ladies, ladies…please, not all at once." He put his hands on his hips and cocked his leg. I raised my eyebrow.
"Seriously Angie, I'll get you out, just say the word." I smiled as she giggled, and Paul frowned.
"You have your own Swan, leave my woman alone." He bent down to help her up and his hands cradled her belly as he kissed her soundly. It made me smile and yearn for Sam. It'd only been a day, but I hadn't seen him like I had hoped.
I said my goodbyes, made promises to visit soon, grabbed my bag and locked up as we all headed out. I was bummed that I didn't get to see Sam today. It was silly and 'girly', but after having such an amazing day yesterday, I missed him and wanted that feeling of closeness again. I cooked some of the fish in the freezer with some green beans for dinner. I washed up for the evening and decided to soak before bed. I grabbed my book from my nightstand and saw a text from Sam.
Had a busy day beautiful, hope to see u tomorrow. Miss u. Xoxo
I smiled as I replied.
Miss you too, see you soon – fingers crossed. Xoxo
I grabbed my latest novel off of my stand and filled the bath with warm water and salts. I soaked until the water got cold before getting out. As I entered my room and started to rummage through my drawers to find some underwear and pajamas, I stopped as I saw a few of the lacy sets Leah and I had purchased when we went shopping. I put a pink set on and picked up my phone.
How do I pose for a 'sexy' pic?
Well, I'm flattered Swan, truly, but I don't swing that way. You don't have the junk I like. I rolled my eyes. Trust Leah to ruin a serious conversation. I sent her back an eyeroll.
Don't get your panties in a wad…yet. I chuckled at her reply.
Set your phone somewhere level with, above, or below your bed or where-ever you're taking the photo. It all depends on the angel you're trying to achieve. Set a timer on your phone, leave your hair down, and just imagine his dick in your face the entire time.
Was that last part necessary?
Absolutely. You want that 'lip biting, my pussy is wet and tingling, and you can tell just by my fucking facial expression', look on your face.
Send me the pics when you're done. I'll tell you the best ones.
You're the real MVP. I replied as I set to work.
I went back to the bathroom and brushed my hair out, brush my teeth, and moisturized. I googled some good boudoir poses and attempted to mimic a few. I set my phone at the end of my bed on a stupid selfie stick Rene had gotten me while I laid my body flat and put my arms above my head and slightly bent my knees. After, I sat my phone up against my computer and I put my hands in my hair while I sat on my knees. I tried a few other poses and sent them to Leah.
You know what…put on a strap-on, and you have yourself a deal, Swan. I'm sold. I laughed out loud at her response.
Nah, I bet you talk too much in the sack.
Oh, you know I'm a screamer ;)
She picked out the top 3 she liked and sent them back to me.
Please send me his responses!
Definitely not!
Party pooper!
I pulled up Sam's messages and sent the shot that I took from the end of my bed. Most of my face was cut off, but my lips were visible and parted. I blushed as I contemplated sending it.
"Who sends sexy pictures a day after losing their virginity? My shits gonna end up on some asshole's computer while he jacks in his mom's basement with a bucket of three-day old chicken on his desk…" I muttered to myself.
"Don't be a vag, just do it!" I gave myself the worst pep talk in the history of pep-talks, closed my eyes and hit send. I was spooked from my childish behavior as my phone started to ring.
"Fuck, he's calling me…" I mumbled. I hesitantly picked up the phone.
"Sam?" I was bright red at this point. Why was he calling me? Did he not like the photo? Is it too soon to send photos? Is there even an etiquette to sending half-naked photos?
"What are you doing?" He all but growled into the receiver. I was definitely a tomato at this point.
"Uhm…sitting…on my bed…?" I stuttered out.
"And what are you wearing?" He added.
"The uh, stuff in the photos I just sent." I mumbled out.
"And are you alone?" He sounded strained at this point. I didn't quite understand the question…who the fuck would be here besides me?
"Uhm, yes? Charlies asleep, I think." I was confused.
"Put your headphones in, lock your door, and put some background music on." He told me.
"Alright…" I got up and did as he asked.
"Finished?"
"Yes, what's going on?" I asked.
My question was soon answered as a Facetime call came thru. My breath whooshed out as I saw what was on the other end of the screen. Sam was sitting at a make-shift desk in his room surrounded by blueprints, but that wasn't what shocked me, he was relaxed back into his chair with his hand stroking his rigid cock. I'm pretty sure an 'eep' escaped my mouth as it fully dawned on me what he was doing.
"I want you to touch yourself for me Bella." He growled. I wasn't sure I could get more red. I hesitated. I had no idea what to do.
"Alright…" I let my hair slide over my face to hide the blaze.
"Pull your hair back, I want to see the look on your face as I make you cum over the phone." An "eep" did escape that time.
I sat my phone on my pillows as I put my hair back in a ponytail.
"Imagine that your hands are mine, what do you want me to do, Bella?" He rasped at me.
"Everything…" I thought.
I trailed my hands lightly down the light lacy pink bralette that had small pearl buttons down the middle of my breasts. My nails scraped lightly over my nipples and I sucked in a breath.
"Massage them Bella, those are my hands caressing your perfect chest."
I followed his instructions. I palmed my right breast as my left hand skated lightly along the strap on my shoulder. It grazed my skin gingerly as I pushed it down my arm. I freed my left breast and heard Sam's light growl coming through the phone. I opened my eyes and made contact with his as I pinched my nipple. My back arched lightly off of the bed.
"How did you take those angles?" He ground out.
"I have a selfie stick." I responded breathily.
"Set your phone on it, I want to see all of you." He commanded as he continued to leisurely stroke his cock.
I blushed as a I set my phone on the foot of my bed again. I sat back on my knees and continued the show. I let the other strap gently fall down my shoulders as I popped the pearl buttons open, all the while imagining it was my hand stroking Sam, and not his own. I let it fall the rest of the way off as I grabbed my breasts and massaged them roughly, wishing I could feel Sam's calloused hands instead. I pinched my nipples as my eyes fluttered shut.
"Sam…" I moaned softly.
"Untie the shorts Bella."
I let my hands trail down my sides to the 50's era silk and lace high waisted shorts. I pulled and let the small bow fall away. I sat up on my knees and turned around. I let the soft material trail down the back of my legs as I flung it over the side of the bed. I pulled my hair from the pony and drug my fingers through my hair to give it volume. I turned to look at Sam and I fell to my forearms to show him the underwear. The front was a sheer color that had the same pearls decorating a few spots. Four straps held the sides and disappeared around the back where two crossed in the middle of my ass cheeks. They were far too uncomfortable to wear every day, but they did make my ass look exquisite. Judging by dark look Sam gave me as he ran his tongue across his teeth, he felt the same.
"Spread your legs and let me see what's mine, baby."
My eyes nearly rolled into the back of my head at his mention of "mine". That my most intimate parts were his, and his alone. I bit my lip as I hunkered down and dropped a hand between my legs to play with the sheer covering. I could feel my wetness through the material. I moved it to the side as I rubbed my fingers along my folds and circled my clit. A jolt of pleasure surged through my body and curled my toes.
"Fuck!" I yelled as quietly as possible, remembering I wasn't alone in my house.
"Let me see those fingers disappear inside that sweet pussy baby, let me see just how wet you are for me." The movement of his hand along his shaft sped up.
I dipped a finger inside and groaned as my walls contracted and clenched. I let my forehead fall to the bed as my thumb swirled along my clit while my finger surged in and out of my channel gathering wetness. I could hear the squelching noise the moisture made and had I been more cognizant, I might've been embarrassed, but I was too far gone as this point to care. The liquid heat that had pooled in my belly was about to rocket all over my body.
"Come for me baby, let me see that delectable pussy flutter and pulse for me." He ground out.
That did it for me. I shoved my face into my sheets and screamed my release into them as I felt my channel pulsing around my finger. I sat there for several moments catching my breath. I slowly pulled my finger out and turned to look at Sam through hooded eyes. I could see the ribbons of his cum all over his hands and stomach. I could also see the light sheen of juice that coated my fingers and hand.
"Suck if off your finger." He licked his lips.
I blushed as I sat back on my legs and brought the digit coated in my essence, to my lips. I held his eyes, and I swirled my tongue around my finger and cleaned it off. I pulled my hair off of my neck and put it into a messy bun, I was flushed and needed it off of my neck. His eyes zeroed in on the mark he left on me and he growled low in his throat.
"If I didn't have to be at the site tomorrow at 4 am, I'd drive over there and fuck that heavenly pussy all night long. I fantasized about those perfect lips wrapped around my cock all day." His eyes were half-lidded, and I felt myself getting wet again.
"Go to bed." He ground out painfully. I blushed and nodded my head.
"And Bella?" I looked into those hooded eyes that took my breath away.
"No touching yourself unless I'm watching. I'll see you tomorrow, beautiful." I blushed again.
"I miss you." I smiled shyly.
"I miss you so much more, you have no idea. Sweet dreams, baby." I grabbed my phone and shut off the call. I had a huge smile on my face as I put the lingerie away and grabbed a comfy pj set.
Mission accomplished I messaged Leah.
You dirty bitch! Was followed by several devil emojis.
I learned from you.
I knew I was good for more than just my pretty face. I laughed and rolled my eyes at her.
Night. See you in the morning.
The next morning was similar to the previous. I ran with Leah, made lunch and coffee for Charlie and I and put a little more effort into my appearance again. I wore a forest green silk sleeveless blouse that buttoned at the back of my neck and billowed slightly. I tucked it into a pair of high waisted khaki pants with a wide flair and paired it with some black heels and matching jewelry. I curled my hair and put it into a low pony and started to twist it into itself. Any pieces that fell out, I pinned back along the sides of the updo. I grabbed my to-go mug and made my way to work. I was the first to arrive again. I listened to the voicemails from the previous evening and started my routine tasks. The day went by quickly as I put in the order of furniture Paul had approved and cleaned out/organized the closet across from the conference room. I was pulled out of my reverie as my phone rang.
"Hey Bella, could you pick up the lunch order and bring it to the site? This client is killing us with last minute change orders, and we don't have time to leave if we want to finish on time today." Paul asked me.
"Sure. Send me the info and I'll be there in thirty." I responded and hung up. I needed to go in town and run errands anyway. I had to stop by the bank, Office Max, and a few other places. I grabbed my keys and locked up. Bessy sputtered a few times before starting and I decided to call my dad while on the way to grab the orders.
"Hey Bells, everything alright?" Came his voice through the line.
"I don't think Bessy is going to last longer than a few more times of me starting her. Can we go to the dealership later? I don't want to get stuck without a car. I have to go see Sue this week and I want to make sure it doesn't die on the way to work. We have some deliveries tomorrow, too." I explained to him.
"Sure thing. We can get you a new ride and then you can chauffer me to dinner." I could hear his smile through the phone.
"Thanks dad, I'll see you later." I smiled and hung up.
It would be nice to get a new vehicle. I could hook my Bluetooth up and talk that way. I ran to the framers and picked up the pieces I'd ordered with the photos Paul had sent me. I went to the bank, got more deposit slips and turned in the checks we had received over the weekend. I got the chairs and extra supplies from Office Max and finally swung by the sub shop to pick up the order for the guys. I stuck the address into my GPS and my way into the outskirts of Forks near-ish to the Cullen's old home. I pulled in front of a beautiful new-build house with a rock finish in the front of it. Reading the paperwork at the office, her husband was some up and coming big-shot lawyer in Port A and traveled to Seattle frequently. This was the first project we'd done for them. If it went well, they wanted to hire us to build her husband's new office.
I grabbed the bags with food and drinks and made my way up the pathway until I saw guys on the roof and scattered around the property. I tapped my foot as I saw Sam absorbed over a makeshift plan table on the bed of his truck that was backed up on the lawn. I could see rows of shingles piled into the back of it. I grinned and put my fingers in my mouth. I whistled as loud as I could. I saw Sam's head snap up and Paul grinned. I ignored him and focused on Sam. Confusion registered on his face for a split second before a grin overtook and he started to make his way to me.
I stared up into his dark eyes as the events of last night flashed through my mind. A bit my lip as I smiled.
"What are you doing here beautiful?" He stood as close as humanly possible to me with the food in the way. Paul came to the side of us and grabbed everything.
"I'll just grab this before you guys infect it with your nasty ass cooties." Sam slapped him on the back of the head.
"Paul asked me to deliver lunch, said you guys didn't have time to get away." I just stood there. I wanted to put my hands on him, caress him, but he was at work, and I wasn't sure that was appropriate.
"Did he now?" He smiled. He leaned down into my ear.
"And what if I said I wanted you for lunch?" His hot breath sent tingles down the back of my spine. I lifted my hands to his chest.
"Promises, promises." I teased back.
His hands found purchase on my ass cheeks and I yelped as he hauled me up and I wrapped my legs around him. He captured his mouth with mine and groaned as my mouth opened and I stroked my tongue along his. I threaded my fingers through the short hair on the nape of his neck, pulling myself tighter against him. Shouts, whistles, and howls called out from all around us. I pulled back and laughed as I hid my face in his neck. I had completely forgotten we had his entire crew as our audience.
Paul howled behind us and yelled, "Ooo, I know what Sam wants to eat for lunch." I laughed and flipped him off over Sam's shoulder. He set me down and kissed me gently.
"Thank you for lunch. I'm not sure I'll be in the office today. Mrs. Turner is proving to be extremely difficult. But I will get my hands on you this week." His thumb stroked my cheek.
"Good thing I have a few more pieces to model for you then." I whispered back. His eyes grew dark as he growled lightly.
"I'm going to put you over my knee the next time I get you alone, for that." His thumb slid down to my pulse and I could feel it start to skyrocket. I was about to lean in to kiss him again when I hear a throat clear behind us. I pulled back to look around him to see a woman in what seemed like an I Dream of Genie costume with chin length hair in tight curls and pearls on her ears. My eyes widened as I choked back a laugh. I looked up to see Sam with a similar grin on his lips.
"I didn't realize I paid you to fraternize, Samuel." She pursed her lips. I might've gotten angry if the situation wasn't so hilarious. She was dressed like an ad for some 50's lingerie and had so much Chanel No.5 on, I could smell it from all the way down the driveway. I lifted my eyebrow at him.
"Samuel?" I mutter with a smile. He threw his head back and belted out a laugh. He gripped my face again and kissed me senseless.
"I'll call you later, baby." He murmurs as he pulls away. I smile, pull away, and turn around to head back to my truck. I hear a low groan and I look over my shoulder to see Sam's eyes glued on my ass. I smile wickedly. My ass did look fantastic in these pants. Mrs. Turner could eat my shorts. As I get in Bessy and pull away from the curb, I see Sam brush her arm off and head over to his truck to eat with Paul. I laughed all the way back to the office. I unloaded all of the goodies I got while running errands and ate my lunch at my desk. I put away the extra supplies, answered emails, and before I knew it, it was time to go home. I pulled into the driveway and Charlie was already outside waiting. He hopped into the cab and we headed into PA and pulled into the nearest dealership.
"You want a Jeep?" He asked me.
"I think I want the new Grand Cherokee. They have space and I can get a 4x4 with dark leather interior and a sunroof." I hummed. Charlie's mustache twitched.
"Whatever you want Bells." He responded.
The vehicle was another gift from Rene and Phil; another we have a new baby that we care about more, so we're hoping to pawn you off by buying your affection present. It didn't matter. Charlie would cosign with me even if they hadn't offered to buy one. But since they were, and it was a guilt present, I was going to go all out – because why not?
Charlie did most of the talking, misogyny was still prevalent, especially at dealerships. But it didn't matter to me, I told him what I wanted. I was just as happy to sit back and peruse. I test drove the model I wanted, and they looked at Bessy. I picked out a white pearlescent finish, ordered the sound system in it that I wanted, but wouldn't be in for a few weeks. I could bring it back and they'd install it for me then. Charlie wrangled them down a few thousand and wrote a check for half down.
"We'll pay the rest off in big payments over a couple of years, it'll make your credit score go up." He told me. I shrugged and smiled.
"Sounds good." I told him.
We left the dealership behind and I couldn't keep the smile off of my face. It came with a 6.4L V8 engine. It'd be good in the snow and I could go fast. I was spoiled. Charlie took a picture of me in front of it as we got out and headed into a teppanyaki restaurant close by. I sent the picture to Sam. Charlie wrapped an arm around my shoulder.
"Let's go celebrate Bells, it's not every day your kid gets a new SUV. It makes me what to get something besides the cruiser." He mumbled.
"You should dad, you deserve it. New house, new tv, and a new vehicle? Who are we?" I joked.
The hostess sat us down promptly and took our orders. The chef came out with a cart that had all the food on it, ready to be prepared. We oo-ed and aw-ed as the food was cooked in front of us. We stuffed ourselves and by the time we got home, it was already ten o'clock. I showered quickly, did my nightly routine, and settled in bed to text Sam.
Sorry, we just got home. I hope you had a good rest of your day. Xoxo
The Jeep looks great. You look sexy in front of it. I can't wait to see you in it. Work was alright, Mrs. Turner is just driving us nuts, but we'll be done with her by the end of the week…hopefully. I miss you. Xoxo
I miss you more. I'm going to bed, I'm beat! I hope I get to see you again tomorrow. Xoxo. I sent him another photo from yesterday's shoot, the one where I was on my knees looking over my shoulder. I smiled evily as I hit 'send'.
I was rewarded with a picture of a shirtless Sam in basketball shorts gripping his thick length through the shorts.
You're fucking perfect. I can't wait to have you on your knees while in front of me. The only thing that picture is missing, is my cum on your lips.
I flushed and bit my lip.
That can be arranged…
Go to bed before I make you drive that new car over here and make you ride my face all night. I miss you beautiful. Xoxo
Miss you too, Samuel. Xoxo. I sent a winky face with the last one.
Over my knee…I can't wait.
I smiled and closed my eyes as I snuggled deeper into my bed. It was nice going to bed and being excited to wake up the next day. It was exhilarating and I was thankful at how amazing everything finally was.
I was jolted awake by my phone sometime later.
"Hello?" I answered groggily.
"Bella!" Came Paul's panicked voice through the phone. I immediately perked up.
"What's wrong?" I asked.
"The baby is coming! I'm freaking out, I don't know what to do! Angela asked me to call you!" Came his shrill reply. I threw the covers off and rubbed my eyes.
"I'm on my way." I hung up and threw on some sweats.
I put my hair up, went to the restroom, and grabbed a bag with my charger and a change of clothes. I woke dad up and headed out. I made it to Forks General in no time thanks to the new ride. I walked inside of the labor and delivery entrance to find Paul pacing back and forth in the lobby. He raised his eyes to meet mine.
"Thank fucking God…" He muttered as he dragged me back.
"I'm not made for this shit. I don't know what the fuck I'm doing." He rambled on. It made me smile to see Mr. Cool as a cucumber freaking out.
I walked in to see Angie sitting at an angle with her legs bent up as she screamed through another contraction. She eyed us as we came in.
"This is all your fucking fault! You just couldn't keep your fucking hands to yourself, could you?!" She screamed at Paul. I covered my mouth as I chuckled. I dropped my bag into a chair in the corner.
"Go get some ice cubes Paul." I gathered her hair up and put it in a messy bun. I untied the straps on her back and proceeded to massage her back and muscles.
"You're doing great, Ang." I told her as her contractions started to come faster.
"Where are your parents?" I asked her.
"They disowned me for having a child out of wedlock." She ground out.
"It's their loss then. You're going to have the most beautiful baby. Just you watch." I rubbed soothing circles down her back. Paul walked back in.
"Come rub her back, your hands are stronger." I took the cup from him and fed some to Ang.
"Chew, it'll distract you." I told her as she squeezed my hand. And that's how it went for hours until the doc and Sue came in to tell her she was finally dilated enough.
"Paul, Bella, each of you grab a leg and bend it. Push it back and grab her hands." Sue directed us.
"When your contraction starts Angie, push with all of your might." Sue told her.
She screamed and cursed as she pushed while Paul murmured words of encouragement and sweet nothings into her ear. She cried as exhaustion crept in.
"One more push sweetheart, we're almost there baby. Just one more, come on. Then we get to meet our little miracle." Paul whispered as he kissed the side of her head.
"THIS IS FUCKING BULLSHITTTTT!" She screamed as she pushed again. A cry pierced the air. Sue grabbed the baby and held it up.
"It's a girl!" She cried out. Paul just stared mesmerized as tears poured out of Angie's eyes.
I helped her lie back as the afterbirth passed and the doctor cleaned her up. Sue recorded the height, weight, and cleaned her off. She put her in Paul's arms.
"Meet your daughter, Paul." He had tears streaming down his face.
"She's perfect…" He whispered as he stared open-mouthed. He sat down on the side of the bed as we all got to see her. She had her daddy's tan skin and startling green/hazel eyes. A tuff of her mommy's black hair sat atop her head.
"She's so beautiful." Ang covered her mouth as she too, cried. I kissed her head, "I told you so."
I got up and went back to the lobby to give the happy couple some space. I realized it was 9 am already and I called Sam to let him know what was going on.
"I've been at the hospital with Angela and Paul. They had their baby, I'll head in, in just a little while." I told him.
"Don't worry about it beautiful, you've been up all night, go sleep. I'll see you later. Give them my congrats. I miss you." I returned the sentiment and hung up the phone.
Going home and sleeping sounded wonderful, but I had the furniture being delivered today. I also wanted to make Ang some meals she could pop in the oven and heat up so she wouldn't have to worry about cooking as soon as they were released. I texted Paul that I was leaving, and I'd see them soon. I went to the office and met the delivery people. We unloaded for a few hours and I set up their offices with the supplies I had gotten. I hung up the photos and stood back to admire everything.
The conference room was simple with a large rectangular table, projector, tv, and phones set up. There was a bookshelf lined with their awards, some paper clippings, and things of the like. I hung up black and white photos of their biggest projects and opened the blinds to the view of the forest. It was a great yet simple room.
Sam's office was the bigger of the two and boasted two large wooden pewter bookshelves with crown molding along the top. A large three-part mahogany desk sat in the middle. Black leather chairs faced the desk with a couch and coffee table on the opposite wall. I set up his new curved screens, pen holders, etc. The final touch was a large black industrial chandelier that complimented the black and white photo of Paul and Sam I had put in between the bookshelves.
Paul's office was more modern with black shelves and a glass and metal desk. I added the same office gadgets that Sam had and added some decorative pieces as well. I put another photo of the boys holding their first check and smiling with their arms around each other, in his office. I stood back and smiled. I couldn't wait for them to see the office now. I locked up and looked down at the clock. It was now four pm and I hadn't eaten all day. I grabbed something quick from the coffee shop down the road and headed to the store after.
An hour later I was home with the ingredients to make sheet pans of chicken and dumplings, chicken pot pie, lasagna, BBQ chicken, enchiladas, and a pot roast dish. I didn't finish until after ten.
"Everything smells great down here Bells, get some rest." Charlie said as he headed upstairs. I collapsed in bed and set my alarm for six so I could beat the happy couple home.
I woke up bleary eyed and ran through my routine. I threw my hair up again and put on some Adidas gear as I headed out. I stopped at the Walmart and grabbed some packaged gifts, onesies, diapers, wipes and things for the baby. I got Ang some bath bombs, witch hazel, and other little 'take care' gifts. I threw in a bassinet, some blankets, and other essentials. I didn't know what they had, and I was kicking myself for not asking earlier. Oh well, they could return anything they already had. I loaded it all up into the back of the Jeep with the food and made my way over to their house.
Paul had texted that there was a spare key in the potted plant by the front, so I propped open the door and started unloading. They were due home this evening if everything went ok today. I put all of the food away and set up the presents in the baby's new room. I saw some dishes in the sink and decided to clean and do some laundry for them too. I didn't have anything pressing at work to do, and I wanted to make sure everything was perfect for the new couple when they got home, they deserved it. Sam dropped by and brought me lunch later.
"Everything looks great, baby." He said as I huffed my bangs out of my face. He wasn't wrong. Everything was sparkling and shiny. The last load of laundry was in the dryer, too. All that was left was putting together the rocking chair and basinet.
"Do you have an hour to spare to put this stuff together for me? I have no idea where to even begin." I gestured towards the boxes. He smiled at me.
"For you, always." And he set to work.
Leah even stopped by after her classes and started baby proofing everything. Though it was early, I thought it'd be a nice surprise. Sam left shortly after building everything and offered his house for the evening since I was already in La Push. I put the chicken and dumpling dish in the oven, made a salad and some rolls. I sat down to wait for them while Leah finished up the cabinets for me. I must've fallen asleep because I was startled awake as I heard someone crying.
"Paul, look, she cleaned everything and – oh, LOOK IN THE FRIDGE AT ALL THE FOOD." I sat up to see what all the commotion was for.
"Oof." The air was knocked out of me as Angie wrapped me up in a hug.
"Thank you so much, Bella. This is more than I could ask for. I can't believe you stayed at the hospital, held my leg, and saw a baby come out of my actual fucking vagina to then go cook and clean my entire fucking house." She wailed as she held on to me. I looked at the two across the room, as watched and laughed.
"She did the laundry too!" Leah chimed in. I glared at her.
"Oh - and check out the baby's room for all of your new gift baskets, toys, and basinet!" I was going to punch her if she didn't stop talking.
"AHHHHHHHH!" She continued to wail. I patted her back.
"It's fine Ang. It's the least I could do for you after not being there for so long. I'm here if you need me, just call." I pulled back and went to wash my hands so I could hold the precious little noodle. (A/N: I call my child noodle, don't ask me why, so it's an endearing name to me)
"You guys sit down and eat, gimme the baby." I reached for her as Paul was rocking her back and forth. He put her in my arms as I sat in the new recliner Sam had built, while they sat down to eat. I smiled down at her. She had the cutest button nose.
"Have you named her yet?" I asked them. Leah leaned over the recliner to coo at the sleeping baby. Paul spoke up this time.
"Vivian Isabella." I looked up at them both in awe.
"Awe, now you're gonna make her ugly cry." Leah snickered. I glared at her.
"Shush you."
"It's an honor guys, thank you." I smiled at them. A short while later Sam came in the door. He went and gave Paul a man hug while Angie was doing the dishes from dinner.
"Congrats man." Paul smiled at Sam. They came over to me, and Sam bent down to kiss my head.
"Sam, this is baby Vi." I smiled up at him. He ran a finger down her cheek.
"She looks just like you." He clapped Paul's shoulder. Angie came and took her.
"Time to feed you little one." She walked back into the nursery.
"Thank you for everything guys. We'll catch up soon, please don't be strangers." She called to us. I stood and stretched, then leaned up and kissed Sam's cheek.
"Let's go, I'm beat." I hugged Leah and Paul and followed Sam outside. I got into the Jeep and followed him home. I was going to need to name her soon.
The drive to Sam's was a short one and I called to let Charlie know I wouldn't be home. Sam met me at my door and grabbed the bag I had from the hospital in the back. He carried me bridal style in his arms and deposited me into his bathroom upstairs.
"Shower while I get us dinner. You're exhausted." He kissed my forehead, and I followed his instructions. I scrubbed slowly and languidly. I dressed in the pj set he let for me on the counter and wrapped my hair in a towel as I made my way downstairs to see that he ordered food for us from my favorite Thai restaurant. We ate in relative silence and he carried me back up the stairs once we were done. He tucked me into bed snuggly.
"I'm going to shower. I'll be right out. Sleep, baby." He kissed me lightly and disappeared into the bathroom. I immediately drifted off. I had a busy day when I woke up. I needed to go to the office and do the work I had missed out on today, take lasagna to Billy, and see Sue for my birth control shot… I curled further into his bed that smelled almost as amazing as he did, and let my dreams take me away.
A/N: What do you guys think? Good thoughts hopefully! Please, leave me a comment/review. I have someone that would like to be my beta (WOOHOO). SO – hopefully the editing will be a little better Thank you so much for your patience and I'm sorry it took so long to get this chapter out! I'm working again now, so I don't have as much free time. But I'm already working on chapter 7, so it'll be out soon!
