"It is time for you to get up" I whispered into his ear. The moan that escaped his lips told me he didn't like the words I had spoken any more than I did. "You are going to need to go if you don't want Alice seeing you" I whispered into his ear again before trailing soft kisses down his neck.
"I won't be able to go anywhere if you keep that up" he said his voice heavy with sleep before he rolled over pulling me into his arms. I couldn't help but giggle when he started to tickle me and place small kisses all over my body.
"Fine let her see you" I said wrapping my arms around him pulling him deeper into the kiss. Unfortunately that got his attention as his hands snacked around his neck to pull my arms free from him. He dressed quickly pulling his shirt over his body. A body I could stare at forever, he was tall towering a foot over me at six feet two inches, his chest looked like something Michelangelo chiseled himself. His skin was soft, warm and perfect in everyway. He gave me a big grin his pearly white teeth shining in the limited light that was barely lighting the room.
"See you later babe" he said swatting my bare butt before walking out of the room.
I glanced at the clock seeing it was close to five and Alice would most likely be getting up within the next twenty minutes. Me on the other still had another hour to sleep and I was definitely going to use it to sleep since I hadn't gotten a lot last night. It always seemed to happen when he came over I couldn't help but touch him, breathing him in each time he moved closer to me. Closing my eyes I grabbed his pillow pulling it to my body breathing in his beautiful scent before sleep took me.
The sound of the alarm pulled me from a pleasant dream. Rolling over I hit the snooze button wanting a few more minutes of sleep. When it started beeping again after five minutes I finally rolled out of bed missing the days that I use to be able to sleep in, now my life consisted of college classes, rounds at the hospital and my job as a waitress. I was completely and utterly exhausted.
I grabbed a towel and walked to the bathroom half asleep.
"Morning Bella" Alice chirped. I didn't bother responded and I tried not to hate my roommate with the fact that she could be so happy so early in the morning. Once the hot water was running down my face I felt like my body was finally waking up. I walked to my room sliding the solid blue scrub top over my head and yanking the matching pants over my freshly shaved legs before walking back out to get my first of what would be many cups of coffee.
"Hey" I said to Alice that was sitting on the bar stool next to the counter reading a fashion magazine. Not only was she chirpy in the morning but her makeup was flawless her hair perfectly done and it was barely six thirty. I reminded myself that she was my best friend and it was not right to hate her for her perfection.
"You look like crap, I take it you didn't get much sleep last night" she said taking a bite of her toast her eyes roaming up and down my body.
"I got plenty of sleep" I snapped at her.
"Good at least one of us did, your moaning keep me up a good portion of the night" she said taking another bite of her toast.
"Sorry" I mumbled grabbing a coffee cup.
"Luckily I don't need much sleep. Your hair looks awful I can help you with that" she said staring at my hair. I knew that look in her eye, she always got it every time she had a new idea of a hair style or different way to apply eye shadow and being her best friend and room mate I was usually the test genie pig.
"Thanks Alice, but I am perfectly capable of doing my own hair plus I don't have enough time for you to work your magic this morning" I said taking a gulp of coffee flinching as the hot liquid burned my tongue and throat. Once I recovered from the second degree burns I just gave myself I threw a piece of bread into the toaster.
"Are you sure about that it won't take long promise?" she said looking hopeful.
"Fine but you have no more than fifteen minutes and that it blow drying time too" I said grabbing the toast walking back toward the bathroom. I had to admit I didn't always mind her help especially since he would be at work today. I couldn't help but feel giddy.
Alice slid off of the stool and followed me to the bathroom telling me that I was going to look wonderful.
Alice and I had been friend throughout high school so when be both decided that we had to get out of Forks as soon as we graduated high school we decided to move to Seattle. Alice was accepted into a fashion school there. I was accepted into a few colleges but quickly realized it was unrealistic that I would be able to afford a four year college and Renee and Charlie were not going to be much help. After turning down my acceptance letters I enrolled into a community college so I could take classes to become a nurse. Alice's dad bought her an apartment for us to live in but I insisted on paying the utilities since we didn't have to pay rent hence the awful waitress job I have had for the last year.
"How is the rotation at the hospital going?" Alice asked once the blow dryer was off and she was rolling my hair into a curling iron. My hair was one thing I enjoyed about my appearance it was long almost six inches past my shoulder the brown reflected my eyes perfectly and made them seem darker than they really were. The rest of my appearance was nothing to brag about my skin was pale, like I have lived under a rock my whole like but no matter what I did I couldn't ever seem to get a tan. Trust me I had tried after Alice drug me to a awful tanning bed and insisted I use it once a week. After the first time I was done.
"You said I would get tan" I yelled pulling my clothes from my body.
"You will I promise it just takes a few times" Alice said walking to my door. Since we had been friends for so long I had no problem standing in front of her in my bra and underwear.
"Alice look at my ass, seriously it is as red as your shirt" I said staring at my friend that seemed to be trying to hide her amusement. "It is not funny and it hurts" I said picking up a pillow from my bed hurling it at her head. Although Alice was short she quickly avoided the pillow picking it up and flopping down on my bed.
"It will only last a day or two" she said leaning back onto the bed. I flopped down laying on my slightly burnt stomach.
"Bella" Alice said shacking me from my memory.
"Oh sorry, it is going good, " I said yawning. "I start my last rotation on the pediatric floor today. I am nervous working with adults is one thing but kids is another ball game. They don't understand what is going on and the worst part is sometimes the are so young they can't even tell you what is wrong with them" I said closing my eyes as Alice sprayed hair spray into my hair.
"You will be fine I have seen the way you are with kids you are a natural. Now let me do your makeup" she said turning to grab her makeup bag.
"No, I let you do my hair you are not doing my makeup" I said standing from the toilet seat I had been perched on while she did my hair.
"Please" she whined holding a bag that contained over a hundred different types of makeup products form eye liner and eye shadow to fake eye lashes and flavored lip gloss.
"No and that is my final answer" I said moving around her to grab my tooth brush. She stared at me for a few seconds then gave up in defeat.
"Fine" she said stomping out of the bathroom.
I moved in front of the sink to spit when I finally realized my hair. She definitely had talent she had curled all of my hair and pinned it so the curls hung down slightly but off my shoulder which was required while I worked. I finished brushing my teeth grabbed one of the many lip glosses putting a thin coat on before walking out of the bathroom. I hollered a goodbye to Alice that was most likely fixing her makeup and walked out of our apartment.
Opting for the stairs, since I had developed a small case of claustrophobia I avoided the elevator. Alice thought I was crazy since we lived on the tenth floor and I often thought of myself as crazy when I was attempting to make it up ten floors after being on my feet for twelve hours but I found it crazier to get into a eight by eight foot box that was only being lifted my thin wires. I know it sounds crazy but what can I say maybe I was crazy. I climbed into my truck as quickly as possible trying to avoid getting soaked by the rain that had been pouring down since last night. The door squeaked as I pulled it shut. Alice was constantly talking about me needing a new car but it got me from point A to point B and I had a lot of memories in this truck I couldn't bare to get rid or it plus I didn't have the money to buy a new one yet.
The drive to the hospital was short only taking me ten minutes which I was grateful for after a long day doing clinics a long car ride home would not have been safe what so ever. The employee parking was in a parking deck that was connected to the hospital which meant I would be sheltered from the rain. This made me smile knowing that all the work Alice had done this morning would not be ruined from the rain.
"Morning, wow you look tired" Rose said when I walked into the locker room where we were allowed to store our purses while we worked our shift.
"Wow thanks, but I am pretty sure you just told me I look like crap but in a polite way" I said shoving my black fabric purse on top of Rose's purse.
"Gosh when are you going to get a new bag seriously you have been walking around with that thing for over a year now" Rose said staring at my tattered bag. Like Alice Rose had a thing about fashion and looking good. When I first meet her I was sure I would not like her she, her blonde hair was straightened and hung loosely down her back her make up was perfectly done. She had tight jeans on but they looked awesome on her, wearing a bright blue blouse I couldn't help but notice her bust size and felt a pang of jealousy and regret that I had chosen to wear a pair of oversized jeans with a Metallica shirt to the first day of class. Thankfully she didn't seem to past judgment on me instead introducing herself and asking if I wanted to partner up. I had agreed and we had been friends ever since.
"I like my bag thank you very much. Now please tell me you are freaking out as much as me about starting on the pediatric floor today" I said closing the locker to stare at my perfectly put together friend.
"A little but it is because I heard that the Chief of Staff's son is starting today and from what I hear he is one fine piece of ass" she said looping her arm around mine pulling me toward the door.
"What about Emmett" I reminded her of her boyfriend of three years.
"Oh I was just going to look I was actually thinking maybe you would finally be interested in dating someone. After all you and Mike broke up what ten months ago" she said pulling me toward the elevators.
"I already told you I was seeing someone" I said trying to keep up with her pace without tripping over my feet.
"Yeah Alice said you two keep her up last night but come on Bella it can't be that serious if you won't introduce him to your friends" she said stopping in front of the elevator hitting the button to go up.
"I am not ready for you to meet him yet" I said pulling my arm from hers. She was about to say something when the elevator doors opened.
"See you up there" I said running toward the stairwell.
"This is not over Bella Swan" she called after me. I knew it was not over for the last three months I had been in a relationship that I couldn't tell anyone about and it was killing me. Alice, Rose and I told each other about everything and now I was falling madly deeply in love with someone and I couldn't even talk to my best friends about it. Only a few more months and it would be in the open and I could yell from the roof tops that I was in love with…
My shoe clipped the stair sending me flying forward. Slamming my shin onto the next steps I couldn't help the profanities that came out of my mouth as I grabbed my leg trying to get the throbbing to stop.
"You have quite the mouth on you. Are you ok?" asked a velvety voice from behind me.
Pulling my eyes from my leg where I had pulled up my pant leg to access the damage of what would most defiantly be a huge bruise I looked up.
I was speechless the man that stood before me was breathtaking. His skin was almost as pale as mine but his eyes made it look perfect. They were a light honey color that you could get lost in. Pulling my eyes away from his I accessed the rest of his face. His hair looked like he had just climbed from bed but on him it made him look ever sexier, his jaw line was strong but tight. His lips were a light pink, they definitely looked like they would be perfect for kissing. I finally realized they were also moving and he was actually talking.
"I am sorry what" I said trying to focus on what he was saying instead of how much I would love to test my theory out on his lips.
"I asked if you were ok" he repeated moving to the step below mine to take a look at my leg.
"I think I will live" I said looking away from his face when a smile appeared on his perfect lips.
"Maybe you should stick to the elevator, the stairs don't seem to safe for you" he said putting his hand out to help me up.
"Thanks" I said taking his hand, I wasn't sure what it was but as soon as we touched it felt like an electricity flowing through my hand. I pulled it away quickly looking back at him. "Plus I hate elevators I will take my chances with the stairs before I climb into one of those death traps" I said. He laughed, his laugh was almost as good as hearing him speak.
"Sounds like someone has a bit of claustrophobia, you know they say if you face your fears head on it is better than avoidance and you have a greater chance of overcoming them" he said smiling down at me. Now standing I realized how tall he was, he had to be at least six four and his build was much like my boyfriends although he seemed a little smaller but it worked for him. If he was bigger it wouldn't look right not that there was anything this man could do that would make him look bad.
"Avoidance sounds good to me" I said. "Thanks again for making sure I didn't kill myself on these steps but I am going to be late" I said turning to make my way up three more flights of stairs.
"Your welcome, be careful" he said pausing. I turned to look at him when I realized he was looking for a name.
"Bella" I said.
"Be more careful Bella" he said turning to walk through the door. I stood there for a minute thinking of how wonderful my name sounded coming out of a strangers mouth. Finally realizing I was going to be really late I sprinted up the stairs. When I finally reached Rose I was out of breath and freaking out because Tanya our instructor and head nurse was already speaking.
"Nice of you to join us Miss. Swan" she said stopping her speech about patient care to look me over.
"Sorry" I mumbled shifting trying to break the death glare she was giving me. I wasn't sure why she hated me but for some reason as soon as I started school she had it out for me.
Once she continued Rose leaned over "what happened to you, took you ten minutes to get up five flights of stairs" she whispered to me.
"I fell" I stated.
"Are you ok?" she asked.
"Yeah, this man in the stairwell stopped and made sure I was ok and I got distracted. Rose he was so perfect maybe I hit my head and made it up because nobody could be that good looking and nice" I said feeling my face warm as I blushed.
"What happened to not wanting anyone else besides this supposed boyfriend of yours?" she said giving me a look that only Rose could give and get away with it.
"All I said was that he was hot, and I doubt I will ever see him again. Like come on we work in a hospital that sees hundred of patients a day" I whispered back to her. Suddenly feeling guilty for lusting over another man when I had the perfect boyfriend. Well almost perfect there was still the issue on not being seen together.
"Miss Swan do you have something to add to my lecture" Tanya asked his voice showing her annoyance.
"No" I said looking down at the ground. Actually there was a lot I would like to add to her lecture but I really didn't think it would be appropriate to tell her that she was a bitch and needed to take a chill pill and calm down in the middle of her lecture.
"Good now I can finally get to introducing our newest doctor here now that Miss Swan has given us her full attention" Tanya said. Making me want to not only tell her off but to slap her as well.
"Let us not blame Miss Swan I was running late so I bare all responsibility for the delay" said the same velvety voice I had heard twenty minutes ago.
"It is quite fine, being a busy doctor must tie up your schedule we are just pleased that you made time to fit me in" Tanya said. Pulling my eyes away from the floor I registered Tanya's hand one the handsome doctor's forearm. I looked away from this arm moving to his beautiful face until I meet the same set of beautiful eyes taking my breathe away.
"Class this is Dr. Edward Cullen he will be working on the pediatric floor. He and I will be working very close together while you all are here so if you have any questions or concerns please find me and I will talk to Dr. Cullen about them" Tanya said not removing her hand from his forearm.
As she spoke my eyes remained transfixed on his. Finally her works and contact registered in his brain. First he pulled his arm from her hold and then spoke.
"Thank you Tanya but I would like your students to feel free talking to me about any concerns or questions they may have with me personally. I am sure you are quite busy as well" he said his voice calm and polite.
"Oh my gosh he is even better than I thought. I am sure your stranger doesn't hold a candle next to Dr. Cullen" Rose whispered but even in a whisper the way she pronounced his name making it sound seductive which I had to admit it definitely was.
"Dr. Cullen it is good to see you again" said a familiar voice that I had gotten use to over the last three months.
"You to Jacob" Edward said not bothering with the formality of using doctor in front of it. I watched the exchange between the two of them noticing the annoyed look on Jacob's face he sometimes got with me when I would say something completely stupid or random or trip over my feet.
"Dr. Black it is good to see you this morning" Tanya said making the same move on Jacob as she had Edward placing her hand on Jacob's forearm. Unlike Edward Jacob let it remain there.
"You to Tanya you are looking stunning this morning" he said his voice sounding almost flirtatious. Seeing this had my blood boiling.
"What can I do for you Jacob?" Tanya practically purred to him moving to first name basis.
"I was hoping to speak with one of your students that was on my service last week" he said his eyes moving over the students stopping on me. Tanya's eyes followed his stopping on me as well.
"What did Miss Swan do, I have had problems with her in the past I will reprimand her if you tell me what she has done. There is no reason for you to waster your precious time with a nursing student" Tanya said her face scowling at me before returning her attention to me.
"Actually she had done nothing wrong, she was one of your best students that I had the pleasure of working with. I just need to speak to her in private about a patient that she treated and document a few things in the patients chart. It will not take long I promise" he said giving her the dazzling smile that he had given me that morning. By now I was sure there would be steam coming out of my head between their flirting and Tanya the bitch putting my work down I was beyond heated.
"I look forward to having to opportunity to see that myself" Edward spoke. Snapping my eyes away from Jacob and Tanya I returned my attention to him. He gave me a reassuring smile before turning to speak to Tanya.
"I will be requesting a few students for assistance once I get settled in" he said smiling at her but from where I stood it seemed a bit fake and for that I smiled.
"Oh I am sure you want someone that knows what they are doing, I will assist you with anything you may need" Tanya said trying with the flirtatious voice again. I was not sure if she was actually her to teach or just hit on every single doctor here until one finally gave in.
"I am sure you do know what you are doing but this is a teaching hospital and I am more than glad to teach. Now I will speak to you later and get the names of your students and tell you the ones I would like on my rotation for today" he said walking away before she could protest.
"I will be taking Miss Swan but I promise to return her as quick as possible" Jacob said moving toward me.
"Miss Swan" he said gesturing me to walk ahead of him.
Rose gave me a sympathetic smile as I walked away.
"Which patient would you like to speak to me about?" I asked as we walked toward the end of the hall toward the stairs.
"We will talk when we are in my office, I am sure you are aware were that is" he said following so close to me I could feel his hot breath on my neck and I had to admit it was turning me on.
"Yes sir I do recall where it is" I said walking up the stairs. Once we entered the office I turned to face him as he closed the door and locking it.
"I missed you so much and couldn't wait all day without touching you" he said stepping forward to close the space between us. I took a step back until my legs were touching his desk.
"You seemed to be touching a lot of people this morning I am sure you could of found someone else and been just fine. From where I stood it seemed Tanya would have been very pleased to let you touch her" I said not bothering to hide the irritation in my voice.
"Is someone jealous?" he smirked at me taking another a few step forward until his body was pressed up against mine.
"No" I said lying through my teeth. For the last three months I couldn't touch him in public unless we drove out of Seattle or were somewhere nobody could see us. He said it was necessary since I was a student and ultimately my teacher was his employee and it wouldn't look professional if he was caught dating a student. I wanted to be with him so badly I had agreed but now I was tired of hiding our relationship especially since I was not longer working on his floor so he had no say in my grades.
"You know I only have eyes for you" he said tilting my chin up so I had to look at him.
"I have a hard time believing that" I said still being upset about everything this morning and I decided I would put that anger to good use on him for the lack of commitment he could give our relationship.
"Do I need to show you?" he asked bring his warm lips down to mine.
Please review if you would like me to continue this story.
