Happy Birthday to the beautiful On The Turning Away! You may recognize one of these drabbles ;) I hope you enjoy them as a whole, as they were written just for you, my dear! I hope you have a truly wonderful day!

I've promised Robyn I won't try and steal you away, but if I had my very own fic wife, I'd want her to be just like you ;)

Thanks for your suggestions on 'liquid', and a big thanks to ICMezzo for helping me make this all a little prettier :)

Glass

I stand at the window, waiting impatiently for his arrival. My body is aflame, the fire within burning brightly in anticipation of my lover's return.

As I watch the sunlight reflect through the panes of glass, I recall our last encounter; the love Edward showed me still makes my flesh pebble and my hair raise on end. His effect on me is palpable, even when we are miles and months apart.

Checking my watch I sigh, wondering how much longer it will be before he arrives. The thought of being in his arms makes me smile and peer outside again.

Visceral

After all the waiting, he is finally here with me again.

My need for him is like an inscription in my soul; it is always there and beyond any control I might have, and I can sense that he feels the same. His longing is as urgent as my own.

"I hate being apart from you," he whispers against my skin between fevered kisses.

"Then don't leave me again," I answer. "I belong wherever you are."

With a smile on his lips, he murmurs softly, "I belong to you, my love. Make me yours again?"

"With pleasure," is my reply.

Lustful

Whispered words of passion and desire fuel the flame burning between us. Our time apart has made us urgent.

Hands fumble with belts and buttons. Lips and teeth and tongues connect, reigniting our lust and desire. Soon bare skin meets heated flesh, and a needy whimper escapes my lips.

"Please," he begs. "I want to feel you."

My hands are steady and sure as I open the bottle on the nightstand and begin to work him over. I moan when he raises his hips against my hand.

"Jasper, love, please. I need you to fuck me."

So I do.

Liquid

We move together as if following some sort of choreography. Bodies undulating, hips rolling, tongues colliding as wave upon wave of pleasure claims us both.

Finally, I am his and he is mine.

When he calls out my name into the night, I am finally able to let go.

"Oh, God...Edward!" I cry as I release deep inside of him. In this moment, I am free; washed clean of all my fear and insecurity. With him back here in my arms again, I am loved.

He is the one who has returned, but it is me who is finally home.

Anchor

"I have another trip...I just found out," he says nervously.

We always end up in the same place; he is leaving and I am left behind. The thought of being apart again is too much, so I say nothing. Instead, I just nod and turn away, trying to hide the tears that threaten to fall.

"Jasper, wait," he calls before I make it out of the room. "Please say you'll come with me?"

"You'd want that?" I ask, not daring to hope.

"Of course. I'm lost without you. I need you to be with me. Please?"

I smile and nod.

Reflection

It's hard to remember why I ever doubted him. He loves me, as he always has, but I can see clearly now, and I know I have nothing to fear.

"I should have asked you before now," he says sadly. "I've wasted too much time."

"None of that matters anymore, don't you see?" I smile and wrap my arms around him. It's a simple gesture, but it speaks volumes. We are here together, and I know now that this is how it will always be.

"I love you, Edward," I whisper.

"I love you too," he replies. "Now and forever."
