Bella's P.O.V.

Relax, you over thinking, silly person.

I was always nervous the first time I met a new client. But, as I had learned in my particular line of work, it was best to act confident, because chances are that your clients are a hell of a lot more nervous than you are.

This is an embarrassing place to be after all.

"Miss Swan, Mr. Cullen is here for his appointment." Angela, my secretary, peeked her head in my office door.

"Thanks, Angela. Can you send him in?" She nodded and closed the door behind her. I straightened my blouse and took a deep breath.

The door opened not a minute later and I had to hold my breath. Mr. Cullen was like a fantasy come true. He had the most amazing body ever; not too large, but definitely not too small. His jeans were low and snug in all the right places, and his shirt clung tightly to his chiseled chest and arms. And his face! Oh, it was just too perfect it hurt to look at and he had the strangest color hair I've ever seen before. Bronze.

My panties pooled.

"Hello, Miss Swan." He said with a hint of nervousness in his smooth voice.

"Hello. Oh, and please, call me Bella." I smiled and motioned for him to take a seat in front of my desk.

"Well, in that case, call me Edward." His crooked grin almost made me swoon on sight.

"So...Edward. How old are you?" It was always best to get to know your clients. Plus, I wanted to see if he was close to my age.... Stop it, Bella!

"I-I'm 23." He said quietly. Yes! We were only a year apart with me being 22. But why the hell would he be here at this point in his life? It should be his sexual peak.

"And what brings you here?"

"Isn't it obvious?" He muttered turning pink. Aww, he blushes too!

"Kind of. But I meant what exactly did you need help with?"

"Okay, this is really embarrassing. I'm a......virgin." He whispered the word. I was shocked; someone as hot as him was sure to have had loads of girls throwing themselves at him daily.

"That's nothing to be ashamed of." I said soothingly.

"I know, but I still can't help but feel like it is when I'm around my friends."

"Forget what they say. What is the problem? Do you have any sort of......erectile dysfunction?" He cringed when I said it.

"Oh, God no. I don't have any problem with that. The reason I came here was so I could......" He trailed off.

"You could what?" I prodded.

"Well, when I do finally have...sex, I don't want to be bad at it, you know?" Oh.

"Uh, urm yes, I understand."

"Great." He let out a shaky sigh. Well, at least he isn't as embarrassed anymore. But, it would be cute for him to blush again.

"There are many books and articles that I could give to you today on different positions and things. Just to start off with, and then we could move on to advanced things." He blushed again. Sweet success.

"That would be... uh...that would be great." He smiled weakly. I walked over to one of my many bookcases and bent down to the bottom shelf. I gathered up three of my guides and set them down in front of him.

"Here are some of the best ones. You can take them home if you like." I said.

"Yeah, I'll take one home tonight." When I was walking back to put the other books back on the bookcases, the stupid heel of my shoe got stuck in the carpet and I came toppling forward. Just my luck to do a face plant in front of him.

I closed my eyes and waited for the impact that never came. Two strong arms latched around my waist and pulled me back upright.

"You might want to be a little bit more careful." I shivered when his breath hit my ear. I had to fight the urge to lean into his frame. I could feel the hard contours of his chest teasing me.

"I'm clumsy, so even if I am careful, I'll still fall." I answered shakily. He let go of me and walked over to the door. Is the session already over? Damn.

"So, I guess I'll see you next week around the same time?" He asked from the doorway.

"I'll be here. Have a good day, M- Edward." I smiled.

"You, too, Bella." He smiled crookedly again and slipped out the office door.

I collapsed in my chair and sighed. I can't be attracted to him; I just can't. He was my client and I was his employee of sorts. None of my other clients appealed to me like Edward did, and there were some pretty good-looking ones. Usually my clients are just couples trying to spice up their sex lives. The fact that he was alone only made it worse.

The phone rang and I happily picked it up to get my mind off of Edward.

"Hey Bella!" It was my friend, Rose.

"Hey, Rose, what's going on?"

"Well, It's Friday, so you know what that means!"

"Clubbing." I mumbled. I mentally smacked myself for agreeing to go earlier this week.

"Don't sound so excited." She said sarcastically.

"You remember what happened last time, don't you?"

"Yes. You got drunk off your ass and ended up in a pole-dancing contest. How could I forget that? Funny as hell." She laughed and I groaned.

"I'll go, but I'm the designated driver. No booze for me."

"Fine, fine, fine. As long as you come."

"Great. Alice should be back at our place around eight."

"Perfect! Oh, and Alice picked us all out the most amazing club outfits!" She yelled excitedly.

"Oh great." Alice had a big shopping habit. My closet was overflowing all the time thanks to it.

"See you at nine, Bella! Love you, bye!"

"Love you too, Rose. Bye."

"Angela, I'm going to lunch now. When I get back, you can go." I smiled and walked out into the street.

How was I going to make it through another session with Edward?
