Edward's POV

As we were walking to the front door, I quickly scooped Bella's leg out from under her and carried her over the threshold giving her a loving kiss.

"Not that I mind," she said as I pulled back, "but what was that for?"

"Well, love, I picked you up because I'm just practicing for what will happen in three days, and the kiss was simply because I love you." I replied throwing her a grin. Only Bella wouldn't be fazed by the overall cheesiness of my statement.

Hello? Um, Edward? In case you have forgotten, I can feel everything that both of you are feeling and I'm starting to get a little uncomfortable. I mean I could ravish Alice right here, if that's what you want?

"Sorry Jazz, I was thinking clearly."

Bell a turned to look at me with a questioning look then suddenly caught on to why I would have apologized. She quickly turned away but I knew that she was blushing.

Emmett plopped down beside us on the couch. "Let's get this show on the road!"

Alice had the pictures in order by team and challenge and we all passed them around laughing at the various incidents.

Currently, Jasper was looking at the picture of the girls from the first challenge. I could see the image through his eyes; I could also feel the waves of lust that he was sending out to all of us.

Damn, Alice is so hot.

I let out an almost silent chuckle which he met with a glare. Oh come on, you know that you're thinking the same thing.

Truth be told, I was.

Out of nowhere, Rosalie let out a groan. "Seriously, Emmett? I still can't believe that you did that." He is such a big kid sometimes. Wait, still? Had she known before? And Alice was trying to get onto me for using my power.

This continued for a good hour or so before everyone started to get a little restless—which isn't an easy thing to do being a vampire.

Emmett chose to be the one to finally break the silence. "Alright, there is no need to put it off any longer ladies, you lost. Case closed. Now, it is time for some rewards." He said with an evil grin on his face. His vulgar thoughts were practically screaming through my ears.

"Emmett, please! Can you contain your thoughts for just two minutes?" I pleaded with him.

He let out a laugh, "Well, you know I can't control my thoughts, especially those about my Rosie."

"Oh, Emmett. Anyway I want to see who wins this extra prize that Jasper mentioned in the rules." Bella said meekly, causing all of us to turn to her. What exactly did my angel have in mind?

I gave a sigh as I thumbed through the pictures. "I think all of the girls deserve something extra, these pictures are pretty intense." Rose gave a smug smile and Alice just rolled her eyes, Bella just sat there looking incredibly humble. "Yours is the best my love." I whispered in her ear which was answered with a small shiver down her spine.

"So that settles it, then? The guys win, if I'm correct?" I announced to the rest of the group.

All the girls groaned, but Alice and Rosalie certainly weren't reluctant to give in to the request of their companions, if only I could know what Bella desired. Within seconds, Emmett had Rosalie slung across his back as he sprinted to their room on the second floor, I hope they were move careful this time, I really didn't want this house to be brought down like the last one.

I didn't have to look far before Jazz and Alice's thoughts screamed that they had found seclusion in the closet—they couldn't make it to their room—or rather Jasper couldn't do to the intensified emotions. Bella sat on the couch beside me and studying her hands. She looked so gorgeous as she sat there wringing them slightly; every now and then, the light would reflect off of my mother's ring, her ring. And each time, my heart would tighten with anxiety and anticipation of what promises that ring held.

I started to hear the thoughts of my siblings and knew that I needed to be as far away as possible for the time being. "Come on, Bella." I told her as I pulled her to her feet and toward the door.

"Where are we going?" She questioned.

I gave her a grin, "Anywhere but here, I just don't want to hear the relations that are going on between my siblings right now." I gave me and knowing smile and nodded slightly.

Once outside, I crouched slowly in front of her. "Can I offer you a lift, me lady?" I called behind my shoulder.

She laughed her chiming laugh. "Why yes, thank you kind sir." She smiled and climbed onto my back and I took off running.

Even though I was a little slower when I carried her, I preferred this to running alone at any given time. Her constant thrumming of her heart, her quickened breath in my ear, and her delicious scent surrounded me only added to the surreal feeling of the situation.

I brought her to the only place that I knew we would be alone—our meadow. As I jumped through the last line of trees, I was immediately warmed by the glowing sunshine. I heard Bella give a quiet sigh, now I'm definitely glad that I chose to come here. I kept walking until we reached the center then I carefully placed her back on her feet and went to lie on my back. She walked towards me seductively and came to whisper in my ear.

"So, Mr. Cullen, what exactly did you have planned to receive for a reward?"

I propped myself on my elbows and a smile stretched across my face, "Well—"

Author's Note: I know, I'm so mean!! But I just couldn't help but to leave a cliff hanger! I will update within two days. And sadly, this story will be coming to a close in 2 or 3 chapters; A Wild Ride just seems to be selfish so I have to put most of my focus to that one. But yes…Leave me a review if you think you know what Edward will ask of Bella! If you get it right, I'll send you a reply with a smiley face! Much love and happy reading!
