With the wedding only two days away everything was a blur of activity. The days were spent either with Alice going over some detail or another, spending the last couple of days I had left with Charlie and packing up my bedroom or talking to Carlisle and preparing for the future. I dragged my feet as I moved up the stairs, it had been a very long day, spent mostly in Alice's presence. I pushed my door open, expecting Edward to be there but not finding him. I frowned and looked around, pulling the phone he insisted I carry out of my back pocket and seeing a message for me waiting.

Running late, I will be there as soon as I can. Love, your eager fiancé.

I tossed the phone onto the nightstand and moved towards my basket of clean clothes I had done this morning. I pulled out the first acceptable things I could find, to tired to search for my nice pjs. I had a pair of white cotton shorts and a loose threadbare t-shirt that was oversized and had a handful of small holes. I left the clothes on the top of the basket and started undressing, kicking off my shoes and then yanking my too tight jeans down my legs, Alice had thrown away my comfortable loose jeans and replaced them with form fitting jeans. I scowl at the pants and kick them further away from me before grabbing the hem of my blouse and pulling it off and over my head, leaving it on the pile of dirty clothes. I had just unsnapped my bra-another one of Alice's replacements, this one a light pink- when a loud throat clearing had me spinning on my feet. I saw Edward by the open window at the same time that I tripped on the pile of clothes at my feet. His arms caught my elbows, keeping me from going down. My hand reflexively raised to my chest, my hear thumping wildly at the scare. My hand thankfully also kept my bra in place, stopping it from coming off completely.

"You scared the hell out of me!" I whisper shouted at him. He wasn't smiling, his eyes roving up my body before stopping on mine.

"I apologize, I did not realize you were changing when I came in." He made sure I was steady on my feet before letting me go.

"It's okay. Just hold on one second." I carefully turned around and pulled the bra off the rest of the way, then tugged on the large shirt before spinning again.

"What kept you?" I asked as I tugged my hair from the collar of the shirt and leaned into him, wrapping my arms around his stone waist. He hugged me back, his smile on his face now but his eyes still darker with lingering lust.

"I had some details I had to go over with Alice."

"Well Im glad you're here now." I say, giving him a smile and leaning up onto my toes to kiss him. He kisses me back and then lifts me to him, his hands on the back of my thighs and pulling my legs to his waist. I squeak at the quick move and pull back slightly.

"Wait I need my pants." I laugh as he sits on the edge of the bed. I try to move off him but he doesn't let me go.

"You don't really need them, you have underwear on." I grin at him and loop my arms around his neck.

"That's not very appropriate." I say, teasing him.

"Neither is all the things I am currently thinking about." His smooth words are kindling to my desire for him. I find myself unable to hold back a grin and kiss him quickly before pulling back.

"Do tell." His hands slowly slide up the outside of my thighs and under my shirt, leaving goosebumps behind.

"Well now I have to leave something to the imagination. After all the honeymoon is only days away, I cannot give everything away before then."

One hand stayed on my bare back and the other came up to cup my cheek, pulling my face to his. His mouth was hungry on my own, devouring me in a way that had my heart and pulse racing. His mouth parted, his cold tongue tracing my lower lip. I parted them, giving him access to my mouth. His tongue stroked mine, coaxing it to come out and play. I kissed him back just as hungrily, tightening my arms around him and pressing my body against his. A couple moments later he pulled back, giving me that new sexy smirk.

"Hi." I said lamely. His smile got wider, and he rested both arms around me.

"Hello."

"Is there a plan for tonight?" I asked, only blushing slightly when I remembered our last practice night. I still couldn't believe id not only did that but that he had enjoyed it as much as I did.

"About that…" He said, giving me that shy, unsure smile.

"I realize again that this is a…dated notion, but I personally plan on abstaining for the remainder of days leading up to our wedding night. You do not have to of course, but I believe it makes it that much more special." I smiled at his words, you could take Edward out of the 20th century, but you couldn't take the 20thcentury out of Edward.

"I suppose I can agree to that." I gave him an easy smile, reassuring him that I wasn't upset about his beliefs or what he wanted.

"Thank you." He said sincerely, holding me closer.

"So what does abstaining imply exactly? Just so I don't accidently cross the line." I asked, not even able to keep the smile from my face.

"Consider it pg 13."

"Sooo, kissing but no touching?" He smirked at me, his hands sliding down to my butt.

"No touching very intimate places, everything else is fine." I eased back slightly and slipped my hands down his sides and under his shirt.

"In that case, I think you should take this off." I slid my hands higher, dragging the shirt higher up his torso. He stood up, still holding me and turned around, placing me in the middle of my bed and sliding his shirt up and off his body. He climbs onto the bed on his knees, leaning over my body.

"Now what?" He asks smoothly, his voice all seduction.

"Come here." I whisper up at him, sliding down the bed and tugging him along with me. He shifts his body in between my open thighs, sliding down the bed and propping his upper body with one elbow. His free hand rested on the outside of my thigh, caressing from my knee and up to my hip. I laced one hand into his hair and slid the other down his chest, my hand slowly making its way around and up his back. He watches me take him in, letting me explore his body to my liking. Eventually I looked back up, catching the dark hunger that was there. That look still utterly thrilled me, and I pulled his mouth to mine, giving into his kisses.

Two more days and he would be all mine, forever.
