Chasing for Something

Chapter 14

Chapter 14; Isabella

I was sitting on my bed contemplating on how I was gonna get through this next two days. I sighed, and leaned back on my pillows. I didn't know why they were looking for me. I feel like it's only to get more attention. If they truly cared, they would have come searching for me a long time ago. They only cared about their money.

I shut my eyes, hoping sleep would overcome me. But it never did. I then remembered the promise I made before we left New York. To make Edward mine. I laughed because I knew I would never have the guts to.

Suddenly, there was a boost of confidence in me. I felt powerful, like I could do anything. I slipped out my bedroom and walk to Edward's door. I took a deep breath and walked in.

He was slipping his shirt off and I almost moaned at the sight of him. He hadn't heard me, so I walked up behind him and wrapped my arms against his torso. I ran one of my fingers across his chest and leaned my cheek on his back.

His smell was delicious yet it was intoxicating. He removed my hands from me, and turned so he was facing me. Biting my lip, I leaned up and crashed my lips on his. I was not going to be scared to give myself away to him. I wouldn't be.

He quickly kissed me back, using force and aggressiveness. I kissed back the same way, and wrapped my arms around his neck. He pushed me down on the bed, while I wrapped my legs around his waist. I ran my hands through his hair, gripping it tightly and making him groan.

"What changed your mind?" He mumbled, against my lips. His lips left trails of kisses from my lips to my collar bone, burning my skin with each kiss. I moaned, and shook my head.

"Shh, it doesn't matter." I managed to speak out. His hand slipped inside my shirt, and it went straight to my breast. I wasn't wearing a bra so it surprised him and I smirked.

We spent the night tangled with each other. It was the crack of dawn until we stopped, and it was one of the most amazing nights I had ever had. I laid my head on his bare chest, while his arms were around me.

I wasn't sleepy at all. It was weird. I didn't know what came over me to just throw myself at Edward. Yeah, he had been begging me to but.. I didn't know why I did it. I just suddenly felt like I needed to. I didn't know what this would do for our work, my work especially. I was his secretary for god's sake. What had I done? I had completely ruined everything. My job! I ruined it.

I looked up at Edward and saw that he was dead asleep. I slipped his hand off me, and got up from the bed. I grabbed my clothes off the floor and quickly slipped out of the room and ran towards mine. I shook my head, and threw my stuff down. I needed a shower. That would help me clear my mind.

I slipped into the bathroom and rubbed my skin off completely, hoping that it would take my guilt away.

Once out of the shower, I dressed myself and went back to my room. I leaned against the door and shook my head. How could I have been so stupid?

I bit my lip, and slid down the door. How was I supposed to face Edward in the morning?

I woke the next morning. With all the events of last night coming right back to me. I shook my head, and pulled the covers over my head. There was a knock on my door, and I shot up from the bed quickly. I freaked, not knowing what to do.

"Uh, Isabella, may I come in?" I took a deep breath and answered. He came in, looking dashing as ever.

"Listen, about last night-" He cut me off before I could speak.

"It was amazing." He finished off for me. What? How could he say that? I was his secretary!

"B-but.. I'm your secretary. You can do so much better, Edward. Listen, once we get back home, you won't have to worry about that. I'm quitting and we can pretend nothing happened between us, okay?" I said all in one breath. I looked down at my feet, still feeling embarrassment that I had slept with my boss. How slutty was that?

His finger went under my chin, and he made me look up at him. I knew there was guilt written all over my face.

"Isabella, it takes two to tango. But, no, you are not quitting. I liked what happened between us, okay? But it cannot happen again." He said. I nodded, and I swallowed the lump in my throat. I wouldn't have to quit my job. I was safe.

When we got back to New York, things were normal. I walked into my apartment, knowing Brianna would want all the details from my weekend. I didn't know if I could tell her about what happened between me and Edward. I mean, I knew I could. She was my best friend.

"Hey!" She said, as she got up from the couch. I smiled, and dragged my luggage in. She hugged me and I hugged her back. We sat down on the couch, as she started to ask me questions. All kinds of them.

I laughed, and shook my head. "I need to tell you something." I said, I bit my lip and took a deep breath.
