The Path To My Soul - Future Outtake by Cullen818
Jasper/Bella
“I’ll do it for you, but if he gets inappropriate, I can’t be responsible for my actions.”
“As my mate?” She giggled.
“As your mate, boyfriend, future husband, the Major.” I smiled because I knew what the Major did to her.
“Let’s not forget about him.” She smiled as her lust spiked. “So, what are we doing out here deep in the woods?”
“Nobody can hear you scream out here.” I slipped her jacket from her shoulders, letting it fall to the ground as I ran my tongue along her jaw.
“In a claiming mood, are you?” She twisted her fingers in my hair and guided me down her neck.
“Always, when it comes to you." I slowly brushed my lips against hers. “You belong to me, and everyone should know.”
“Show me who I belong to,” she whispered as she unbuttoned my shirt. “Make me feel only the way you can.”

Just this once by SweetT129
Carlisle/Bella
I knew he was being honest. We had been each other's best friend for so long, and he had yet to reveal anything I had told him in secret to his brother. My husband. I had shown him the same respect.
“Please,” he said softly.
“Carlisle, it's just... I... I'm not...” I took a deep breath. I knew that I needed to say this, no matter how hard it was to begin. “I think that Edward and I have been apart too long.”
“Of course you have, sweetheart. It's been six months since he's been home. This European tour has made it much more difficult, I know.”
“That's not what I meant, exactly. I don't mean it's been too long because I miss him. I meant that we've lived this way so long that I've stopped missing him.”
“Oh,” he said softly, understanding what I said, as well as what I didn't.
“I used to think that I couldn't live without him. Now I've realized that I can. I just don't know what that means.” The words came out as whispers, as if I was hoping that he would not notice that I'd spoken them. Would this be the last moment of our friendship?
But rather than respond the way I expected, I found myself being wrapped more securely in his arms. Didn't he hear me?
“Oh, Bella, I'm so sorry,” he said. “What... What does this mean?”
“I don't know, Carlisle. I hate to think of leaving him – he loves the girls, he loves knowing that we're here waiting for him to come home. He's had a hard life. I don't want to hurt him.”
“Your happiness matters as well, though, Bella. You are not happy.” Again, he surprised me. I couldn't imagine why he was not fighting for his brother.
“I want to be,” I whispered, not quite sure what I meant with the words, or where they would take me.

Love Like Fire by JaspersIzzy
Jasper/Bella
He slowly reached up and cupped my cheek tenderly. I was not one to normally accept such touches from a stranger, but he was different. I relished the warmth of his hand, which was caressing my face as a lover would. I sighed in contentment, reveling in the feelings I that were consuming me. I could hear his breathing pick up as he stroked my jaw lightly.
“How can I make it go away?” he whispered, almost too low for me to hear. His voice was filled with concern and determination. It was the most beautiful sound ever.
“Make what go away?” I asked, wanting to hear his voice again. He was quiet for a moment before he answered.
“The pain. I can see it in your eyes. How can I make it go away?” he asked again.
I was shocked that he was so in tune with me; that he already knew the pain I was in. I was sure that my puffy eyes from the tears helped, but it wasn't just that. It was as if he could feel my pain; the emptiness that consumed my life.
“I think you already have,” I answered, hoping to show him what his presence was doing to me.
