IMPORTANT A.N.
Ok, so I decided to write another. You know this stuff is kind of addicting. :D But I was happy with all the reviews I got for my other fanfics. Thanks to all that reviewed! I really appreciated it:).
So, moving on to this one, I don't if it's going to be a oneshot or not. It's initially supposed to be one, but if I get an idea or something while I'm working, or later, then I'll continue, but I'm not making any promises. So just a point that I wanted to verify so that the story doesn't get confusing or anything. This takes place after New Moon. I'm mentioning that because I think after New moon a lot of relationships changed, including Edward and Bella's. I promise there will be no spoilers on her. I might mention something-like names, but it will in no way reveal any part of the plot of New Moon. If you don't want to know some of the names involved then you shouldn't read, but the names have been mentioned in Twilight and the first chapter of New Moon that was posted on Stephenie's website on July 1st. So it's safe to read if you haven't read New Moon yet. Just a warning:).
I'm pretty sure I'm going to write other stories too, but not full ones. School started and I don't want to have to worry about not updating regularly and disappointing anyone. I know how you feel:D. But anyways, I hope you enjoy this one. Just a random idea:D. Sorry for the long authors note! Please review!

A Day Out with "Brothers"
I knew it was hard convincing Edward of anything, but this was getting ridiculous. I was pretty sure there was a 90 chance that I would lose, but I had to give it a try. There was that 10 still left…
We were seated in Edward's room, joined by everyone except Emmett and Jasper. They were out on an extended hunting trip in the mountains. The other's had stayed behind, not wanting to make the long trip, settling for going hunting somewhere close by. They were planned to return later tonight. It was Friday night and I was spending the weekend at the Cullen's, after some persuasion for Charlie. He had finally caved, muttering something about a fishing trip.
"Edward, you're being foolish, we all need to go hunting soon." Carlisle spoke, after the glaring contest between Rosalie and Edward had ended. We were trying to convince Edward to go hunting, but he wasn't budging, insisting that he was fine. I knew better. He hadn't hunted for two weeks and it showed in his eyes, but his behavior around me hadn't changed one bit.
Since the Volturi incident a couple of months ago, Edward had been overly protective. I hadn't seen Jacob in a while, particularly due to the fact that Edward hadn't left my side for more then an hour at the most-not that I was complaining. He only went hunting at night, while I was asleep, and he stayed fairly close, not going any further then necessary and always returning before I had woken up. That was the reason why his eyes were not the never lightest shade of butterscotch; it always held the hint of brown. We had grown closer since then, and he had better control of his hunger now, never flinching if I took it too far, instead gently stopping me. But taking risks were stupid, which I had learned the hard way, and he needed to hunt properly this time.
"Edward, please. Why are you so stubborn! I'll be fine with Emmett and Jasper!" I pleaded. He shook his head, his face set.
"That's what I'm worried about. Leaving you with…those two." He said it as if they were some contagious disease. I shook my head sighing.
Before I could respond, Rosalie started. "What do you mean 'those two'?" She almost shouted. Rose wasn't in the best mood when she hadn't hunted for more then a week. We were on better terms now though, at least from before. It was still uncomfortable between us and I knew we would take some time to adjust to each other. But I was overly happy that her usual glare was replaced with a small smile every time she saw me.
"Rose," Edward growled. But she held up her hand to indicate she wasn't finished. The look on her face would have made me cower in the corner.
"Edward, we're going hunting tonight, in an hour. We'll be back by tomorrow night. You will be ready in an hour and we will leave. Got it?" Her voice was a deadly hiss. Edward looked taken aback.
"But…" he started, but his voice was already defeated. "Bella…" He sighed and shook his head.
As if on cue, the family got up and retreated back to their rooms. I turned to look at Edward who was glaring at the door. I held back my smile. He looked so handsome when he was mad.
"Edward, I'll be fine. You know Emmett and Jasper won't let anything happen to me." Truthfully, I wasn't looking forward to spending a whole day with Emmett and Jasper. Other then the fact that Edward wouldn't be there, I hadn't spent that much time alone with them. I loved both of them, but I knew I was ahead for some awkward times.
Edward sighed and looked back at me. He twisted his arms around my waist and pulled me into his lap. I smiled and laid my head on his shoulder.
"Don't leave their sights. If you have anywhere to go, tell them first and then go. Especially outside. The forests aren't safe anymore…not that they were ever safe. But that's not the point, just— "
I cut him off there with a roll of my eyes. "Edward, I'm not a small child. I can take care of myself…remember…" His eyes softened and he nodded slowly. I smiled and softly kissed his lips. He sighed and pressed closer, but we were interrupted by the loud banging of the front door.
"BELLA!" Emmett loud voice shouted up the stairs. I jumped; surprised he wanted to talk to me, and not Rose, especially since he had just come back. Edward growled.
"Shut up Emmett. We'll be down later." He said this as if talking to me, but I was positive Emmett had heard. He seemed to take the tone of Edward's voice as a hint and a few seconds later we heard Rosalie shriek. I blushed.
Edward chuckled and kissed my neck. He continued up to my lips and kissed me again. I could feel my heart accelerate. He pulled back and smiled. I smiled back and laid my head back on his shoulder.
We sat there for a while, lost in our own world, until we heard a knock on the door.
"We better get going now Edward." It was Alice. I felt Edward sigh, a sign that he had heard.
I got up from his lap and held out my hand. He shook his head and took it. We walked down the stairs at human pace, both of us reluctant to leave each other.
We finally reached the bottom and everyone was waiting by the door. We walked over and Edward put his arm around my waist, laying his chin on top of my head.
"Ready?" Rosalie said cheerfully. It was evident that she was overjoyed at winning the conflict between them. Those wins were rare with Edward as your opponent. Edward just growled, and Rosalie narrowed her eyes.
"Ok, we better get going then." Esme cut in hurriedly. She turned to me and hugged me awkwardly, due to Edward's arms around me. I smiled at her. Next Carlisle smiled and nodded at me, following Esme out the door.
Alice came over and slapped Edward's hand out of the way. I laughed. Typical Alice. She grinned and hugged me, giving me a kiss on the cheek. "Have fun with the boys!" She giggled and danced out the door.
Rosalie came up to me and gave me an uncomfortable one-armed hug. I wrapped my arms around her waist and gave a small squeeze. She looked at me; a little shocked at my response, but grinned and walked over to give Emmett a quick kiss. She walked out the door, with a dreamy-eyed Emmett looking after her.
I turned around to look at Edward with anxious eyes. This was the longest time we would be apart, since…
I shook my head. I wasn't going to repeat that. But my thoughts were interrupted by Emmett's loud voice.
"Well, you better leave Edward. We're going to have some fun tonight." He looked at me happily, with a wide grin plastered on his face. I couldn't help but smile. I looked at Jasper and he was looking at me with a reassuring smile. No doubt he could feel my anxiety.
Edward growled at Emmett and he backed off, with his hands up in mock surrender. Edward looked back at me and swept me up in his arms again. His lips crashed down on mine and my arms wrapped around his neck. He pulled me closer and I felt my heart pounding viciously.
We were interrupted by a loud howl by Emmett. I pulled back and looked back, blushing furiously. I had thought they had left! Emmett was laughing hysterically, and Jasper's eyes were respectfully averted, but I thought I saw a hint of a smile on his face.
We heard the horn honk from outside and Rosalie's impatient voice. Edward rolled his eyes. He gave me a soft kiss on my lips again and let me go. He turned towards Emmett and Jasper and glared at them. Emmett had stopped laughing and nodded his head. Jasper smiled encouragingly. Edward sighed and with one last shake of his head walked out the door.
I watched him leave, until the door clicked shut. Then I slowly turned around to an excited Emmett and calm Jasper. I smiled back shyly. This was going to be a long night.
Ok so I'm going to stop there. Since Edward's going to be gone for a day and a half, I didn't want to put that all in one chapter. First, the chapter would be like 15 pages long and second, I have some things planned that don't go with the "mood" of this chapter. So, there are going to be some other…interesting chapters. :D Hope you guys enjoyed the chapter! Please tell me what you think:)
