The Near Death and the Almost Kiss

"Ed-Ed-Edward?" Annabelle said, shocked.

"Yes honey bunches. It's Edward." Edward said smirking at her bewildered face. "I see you're having trouble grasping the fact that it's actually me. And may I ask why?"

That was enough to snap Annabelle out of the trance she seemed to be trapped in. "No. I believe it just fine."

Sarah looked at the growing tension between them -which was affecting Annabelle but not Edward- from her position on the ground. She meekly asked, "Guys, a little help here?"

Annabelle ignored her along with Edward. Taking a deep breath, Annabelle continued. "What I don't believe is the fact that you're so clumsy and unbelievable that you run into my sister pushing her to the ground and don't even bother helping her back up on her feet. Geez, what a gentleman you are." She spat angrily.

Edward was amused. He knew that his Belle was quite a feisty one and didn't allow anybody to walk over her without seeking revenge or chewing their ears off. But he was happy to see that she hadn't changed much over the years.

He calmly replied, "Honey bunches, if you didn't notice, your sister was the one who bumped right into me. I see that bumping runs in your blood."

Annabelle was fuming by now. Taking one step closer to her boss, she said, "First of all, do not call me honey bunches or any such name. I have a lovely name which I am sure you are well aware of. Secondly, I don't care if you are my new boss or the CEO of Frost. You mess with my loved ones; you have to face my wrath. So if you appreciate children, then you better step aside and apologise to my sister or you won't be having any of your own in the future."

Edward started chuckling loudly. "If you're so eager to see my dick, you could have just told me. Why are you playing all 'hard to get' act?"

Annabelle was so angry by now that there was smoke emerging from inside her ears and she was practically a tomato in the face. Without warning, she took the last step ahead and slapped Edward's face so hard that it turned direction to the right.

Sarah who had helped herself up by now gasped and tugged at Annabelle's arm pulling her away from Edward's direction. Edward was looking at her, shocked and surprised, realising that maybe he pushed it a bit too far. Annabelle took deep breaths and composed herself before she said anything else.

She turned to Sarah and asked her to go ahead to the Dart game booth by herself. Annabelle then resumed speaking, "I am not one of your whores that you can just take to bed. I'm far from even liking you so sleeping with you is the last thing on my mind right now so you can forget any dreams of taking me to bed. Now please stay away from me and my family or you will regret the day you were born. Sarah is everything to me and I won't let shit happen to her." Then taking one last look at his shocked face, she turned around and marched right back to the booth where Sarah had now won two prizes.

"Well you are in deep shit with the girl uncle Ed." came a voice from behind Edward.

Edward snapped out of his shocked state and turned around revealing the source of the voice, a boy no older than ten with golden blonde hair and eyes of the deepest shade of green as they stared into his own. Saying that the boy was quite handsome would be an understatement since he looked no lesser than a child model straight out of a magazine.

Edward's angry and shocked demeanour quickly subsided as he put on a smile and bent down in front of his adorably striking nephew. "Well little guy, you're damn right. But go easy with the swearing. Wouldn't want your father also angry on me right? One furious tiger is a whole lot better than dealing with two."
