The humming stopped and he looked questioningly into my eyes.

I brought my arms back to tracing his muscles, and with a sigh, he set his head against my chest, likely listening to my thrumming heartbeat.

Without warning, I felt one of his cold hands sneak its way under my shirt and rest on my stomach. I had paused my tracing in surprise, but continued after several moments.

“Breathe,” he whispered, and I found myself gasping for air.

His cold hand against my warm skin felt amazing. I was intensely conscious of it.

After an immeasurable time in heaven, Edward’s smooth hand stretched its fingers across my stomach and twisted around to rest on my back, holding me closer to him. On my back, I felt his hand glide across my skin towards my neck.

The sensation was thrilling. Our two bodies blending together wherever they touched. His cold skin left a tingling feeling wherever it went.

Through all of this, I was barely aware of my own movements. When his hand stopped at the base of my neck, my attention drifted back to my actions. I had copied the movements he made and my hands were now wrapped around his neck.

His head turned and his cold lips pressed against the base of my neck. He then moved to kiss my lips. I felt the hesitation leaking through.

He pulled away and I saw his eyes were shut tight.

Careful not to make contact, Edward took my shirt and lifted it off.

I tried to relax myself, but could not. It was intoxicating to be in front of Edward like this.

He opened his eyes and stared into mine.

I felt his cold skin brush against mine. He traced the curves of my body down to my jeans before running his hands along my stomach and chest, all the way up to my neck.

Then he kissed me.

It took several minutes before I could really think, and I definitely did not trust my voice. Edward’s lips left my mouth briefly every once in a while to let me breath. I never looked, but I bet his eyes were a deep black. Being so close to him was exhilarating. I was flying.

The hesitation he held, died down slowly as he grew more confident in his ability to control his thirst. Massaging my breasts with one hand, and holding my head with the other, he kissed me long and passionately.

Temporarily, I felt his hands leave their places and unhook my bra. Unable to move my arms, he had to reach up and move them for me.

After my bra was removed, I felt Edward’s full upper body settle on top of mine gently, his arms wrapping around my back. I tried to arch myself, molding our bodies together. I wrapped my arms around his neck again and kissed him.

Eternity with Edward was going to be amazing.
