The steamy making of construction
Chapter one
Bella:
Beep, beep, beep the alarm went off and I had to get up. Another day and another adventure. I'm Isabella Swan but I prefer Bella. I live in San Francisco with my two best friends, Alice and Rosalie. Alice is the hot annoying pixie shopaholic freak, but you have to love her, Rosalie is the sexy enforcer in our group but has her soft side when she wants it and me I'm the plain Jane. Alice thinks I'm stubborn but I just like things my way. I got dressed in my business clothes and went to get food.
"Bella, Bella, Bella what have I told you, you have to add a little something to your outfit" Alice said.
"Alice we are going to work we do not need to add a little something" I replied. We worked for a business that did construction inspection (me) and the designing for after (Rosalie and Alice)
"You always say that just wait until we go out tomorrow night" Alice mumbled under her breath.
Rosalie walked in at just that moment and said "Alice are u bugging Bella again?"
"Come on we have to go to work" I said. Today we were going to one of our companies biggest clients The Cullen Construction Co.
We walked into our shared office and received the paper work for our job today. Alice jumped on the sofa and said "I just love our office"
"Of course you would you designed it" Rosalie said. I laughed at that. Alice just stuck her tongue out at us.
We went down town to the Cullen Construction Co.'s site. We had to talk to the person in charge, Edward Cullen. When we got out of the car and walked to the office you would think we were at a concert with all the noise the workers were making but not at me at Alice and Rosalie it was never at me. On the way to the office there were two guys that stood out a tall big buff guy with curly brown hair, blue eyes, and dimples. He stood out especially to Rosalie. Then there was a slimmer tall guy with blond hair and a good smile. I could tell he caught Alice's eye. Was I ever going to find someone I could look at that way? We made it to the office and went in. There stood the most gorgeous human man I have ever seen. I had to do a double take because I thought I was looking at Michelangelo's David. His bronze hair and green eyes dazzled me. I couldn't talk.
"Can I help you?" he said.
"Um, um we are the inspector and designers. We're looking for Edward Cullen" I stammered.
"Well you found him" Edward replied.
"I'm Alice and this is Rosalie we are the designers. This is Bella she needs to go over the site"
"Ok I call my head worker to take you around" he said. He turned around and made the call.
"Then we need to meet the owner to go over the design do you know when they will be here?" Alice asked.
"They will be here to go over some plans in an hour. Oh here is Emmett." Edward answered.
The guy that came in was the one that Rosalie was attracted to.
"Hey brother what do you need?" Emmett said.
"Emmett this is Rosalie, Alice, and Bella. Bella is the inspector you need to take her around the site." Edward said.
Emmett shook mine and Alice's hands but for Rosalie he took her hand and kissed it.
"It's my pleasure to meet you" Emmett said.
Rosalie blushed. They were just staring at each other when I heard a cough I turned to look at Edward. He looked annoyed and like he knew what was going to happen.
"Emmett, Emmett, EMMETT" Edward yelled.
Emmett was in a trance. It was like the only thing in his life was Rosalie.
"I think Edward wants you" Rose said.
"Who. . . .Oh yeah what?" he said.
"Will you take Miss uh" Edward said.
"Swan" I said.
"Thank you Miss Swan around the site so she can do her job then you can do yours." He finished.
He called me Bella before but why was it Miss Swan now.
Emmett came back to the world and turned around to meet me. Then we walked out together. As I walked through the door I heard a faint sigh.
"So you're the new inspector?" Emmett said.
"I guess so" I replied
"So who is your friend?" he asked.
"Rosalie" I told him.
"I know her name, does she have a boyfriend?" he asked
"Rosalie please I have never seen her have a serious relationship and I have know her since pre-k." I answered. I don't even bother to know her "boy toys", as Alice calls them, names. Like it matters they don't stay long enough to know them anyway.
"My kind of woman, right this way we can start with the back lot then move forward." He suggested.
"That's fine with me" I said.
After I was done inspecting we were walking back to the office, it had taken us two and a half hours to get the job done.
"So all you need to do is fix the foundation in the back lot and then I will come back for the next stage and inspect it. OK."
"Fine with me" Emmett said.
"Do you want to take the information slip?" I asked.
"No give it to Edward he does all that work, look here is my other brother Jasper." Emmett said.
"Wait Edward is your brother?" I asked.
"Yeah, hey Jasper this is Bella she is the new inspector, Bella this is Jasper." Emmett began.
Of course there stood the guy Alice liked.
"Nice to meet you." Jasper said.
"You, too." I said.
"Are you going to the office?" Emmett asked his brother.
"Yeah I was going to see if Edward and you wanted to go to lunch, Bella of course you should join us." Jasper added.
I thought about that Alice and Rosalie would love this.
"Sure, but I'm here with my two friends, the designers." I replied.
"They can come too." Jasper said.
"Ok that sounds great." I said.
We went into the office and no one was there, but right then they walked out of the back room. Once everyone who wasn't introduced was introduced we started too walk out.
"Ok we usually go to Esme's restaurant they have the best Italian food." Jasper told us.
"What?" Edward and Alice and Rosalie asked.
"Jasper invited us to lunch." I explained.
"Just follow us." Jasper told me looking at his brother.
We went to our cars and we followed the boys' car. They drove into a parking lot behind a cute little café sort of restaurant. It was cozy and welcoming. It felt like home.
"Here we are" announced Emmett.
We walked in and a woman greeted us.
"Hey boys" she said.
"You guys must come here a lot huh." Rosalie commented.
"I guess this is our mom's place" Edward explained.
"Mom this is Alice, Bella, and Rosalie." Emmett introduced us.
Anyone could hear the emphasis on Rosalie's name. From the look on Mrs. Cullen's face she heard it too.
"It's nice to meet you Mrs. Cullen." I said
"Oh please call me Esme." She said.
We were seated in a some what isolated area. A plot from Esme that was working on Jasper and Alice, Emmett and Rose. Since we arrived those four have been getting closer. They were different from the other relationships Alice and Rose have had. Edward hasn't talked to me though, uh mental sigh. Alice and Rose looked at me. Opps that one slipped out, I mouthed sorry to them. They let it slide for now. Great Alice was going to give me hell later. We were seated in boy girl order. I was seated between Edward and Jasper, but Jasper was turned toward Alice. They were all conversed in conversation, except Edward and me. This was my chance.
"So what is good here, any suggestions?" I asked him, ugh him.
"Everything is great, get your favorite dish and it will be the best you have ever tasted." He replied curtly.
"I hate being an extra wheel" I mumbled no one was suppose to hear me.
"Our numbers are even." Edward replied.
"Not when someone is being ignored" I told him.
He didn't answer. That was so rude what was his problem.
"What's wrong with you? Did I do something wrong? You cannot possibly not like me you don't even know me" silence "well" I asked.
"No" he replied.
"No" I repeated.
"That not what I meant I meant you were right. I don't know you so tell me more about yourself." He said
I was surprised, but I told him. I told him about my childhood and my teen years and college and my life now, my friends, how I met Alice and Rose. Then I went into Alice's torturing shopping trips. Then I asked about him and he told me. He had to repeat himself a couple of times because all I could do was stare at his face and I didn't pay attention. We had ordered and eaten during our conversation and now we were finished. I couldn't remember the last time I had talked this much. We were outside walking to the car when I heard Alice invite the boys to go out with us tomorrow. I spun around to ask her what the hell she was doing, but my clumsiness got the better of me and I was falling toward the pavement. Great I hadn't fallen in such along time, now I have to start recounting again. But I never met the pavement. I turned around and Edward was so close to my face.
"Thanks" I sighed
"Any time, Bella." He told me.
Edward:
The day had started like any other day, but I could feel that something was coming and I didn't know whether it was good or bad.
My brothers, Emmett and Jasper, and I were headed towards our construction site. We had our own business The Cullen Construction Co. I was the supervisor of the whole operation. Jasper controlled the construction process and Emmett liked to work with his hands. I can't even count how many times we have gotten fined because Emmett didn't want to use the machines, but he always finds a way out of it. My brother's activities are none of my business as long as he keeps the company out of trouble.
When we drove up we all went our separate ways
"See you later boys" Emmett said.
"Bye I'll come by at lunch and we can go see Esme" Jasper told me and Emmett.
I was going over some paper work when I heard the door open. I turned around to see who was coming and that's when I saw her. A beautiful brown haired, brown eyed goddess. So this was what I was feeling yeah definitely bad. It's not like I hate women but they are just distractions and I hate distractions. This felt different I couldn't take my eyes off her.
"Can I help you?" I said.
"Um, um we are the inspector and designers. We're looking for Edward Cullen" she stammered.
Of course the one woman I was fully attracted to and she was looking for me.
"Well you found him" Edward replied.
Great did I have to sound so arrogant?
"I'm Alice and this is Rosalie we are the designers. This is Bella she needs to go over the site" Alice said.
"Ok I call my head worker to take you around" I said. I turned around and called Emmett.
"Then we need to meet the owner to go over the design do you know when they will be here?" Alice asked.
"They will be here to go over some plans in an hour. Oh here is Emmett." I answered.
"Hey brother what do you need?" Emmett said.
"Emmett this is Rosalie, Alice, and Bella. Bella is the inspector you need to take her around the site." I introduced them.
Emmett shook their hands but kissed the Rosalie girl's hand.
"It's my pleasure to meet you" Emmett said.
"Emmett, Emmett, EMMETT" I had to yell to get through to him.
I have seen that stare before and the results were not pretty at least in my opinion.
Emmet was captivated by this woman.
"I think Edward wants you" Rose said.
"Who. . . .Oh yeah what?" he said. He was irritated but we had work to do he could play around later.
"Will you take Miss uh" I said.
"Swan" Bella said.
"Thank you Miss Swan around the site so she can do her job then you can do yours." I finished.
I don't know why I called her miss I said her name before but I'm not going to let any one distract me not even the most beautiful woman I have ever seen. They left and I was left with the two other women. We each went to our own work. I was going over next weeks plans and I guess they were going over their designs. Then the clients arrived when I was done going over the construction they went to the back office to do their jobs. When the clients left I went back to join them like a good gentleman that my mother raised me to be.
"So is there any thing else I can help you with?" I asked
"Yes there is you can give your hunk of a worker's phone number" Rosalie said.
"You mean Emmett; he is my brother and not really a relationship kind of guy." I told her.
"That's ok I'm not a relationship girl." She replied.
Whatever it's not my life so I gave her his number. Alice was just staring at me this whole time. I felt like she knew what I was feeling about her friend Bella.
"So is there any thing we can do for you" Alice asked.
"No" I said.
Then we walked out into the main office and there was Emmett and Jasper with Bella. After they all got introduced they were headed out when Jasper turned to Bella.
"Ok we usually go to Esme's restaurant they have the best Italian food." Jasper told Bella.
"What?" Alice, Rosalie, and I asked.
"Jasper invited us to lunch." She explained.
"Just follow us." Jasper said well he gave me his stare.
When we were in my car I couldn't hold back any more and I just let Jasper have it but he never reacts the way anyone wants he is always his cool and relaxed self.
"I don't see the problem Edward they seem nice and good looking, did you see Alice she is perfect." He confessed.
"Don't you get it Jazzy, Eddie here has feelings for Bella that's why he wants to stay away because he is scared it might go somewhere." Emmett expressed.
"Don't call me that." I said.
"Wow Emmett that was deep." Jasper told him.
"Well we all knew it would happen one of these days right." I murmured.
"Hey that really hurt." Emmett said sarcastically.
We got out of the car and started to go to the restaurant.
"Here we are" Emmett shouted
We all walked in and my mother greeted us.
"Hey boys" she said.
"You guys must come here a lot huh." Rosalie commented.
"I guess this is our mom's place" I explained.
"Mom this is Alice, Bella, and Rosalie." Emmett introduced them.
"It's nice to meet you Mrs. Cullen." Bella said
"Oh please call me Esme." Esme said.
Esme had caught the way Emmett said Rosalie's name so she put us in the back table that is semi isolated. We were all seated and the others were in their own discussions.
"So what is good here, any suggestions?" Bella asked me.
"Everything is great, get your favorite dish and it will be the best you have ever tasted." I replied quickly. I knew she was trying to make small talk but I still shut it down. What was wrong with me I liked her, I knew that much, why was I pushing her away.
"I hate being an extra wheel" she mumbled.
I could tell I wasn't supposed to hear but the idiot I couldn't resist replying.
"Our numbers are even." I replied.
"Not when someone is being ignored" she told me.
I didn't say anything else.
"What's wrong with you? Did I do something wrong? You cannot possibly not like me you don't even know me" I still didn't say anything "well" she continued.
"No" I replied.
"No" she repeated.
"That not what I meant I meant you were right. I don't know you so tell me more about yourself." I said.
I thought she wouldn't after I was so rude but she did. She went into complete detail of her life. When she finished I told her my story. We were finished with lunch and headed back to our cars when Bella turned around and slipped. Before I knew it I caught her and saved her from falling to the ground.
"Thanks" she breathed.
"Anytime, Bella." I told her she just didn't know how much I meant it.
After work I was at my apartment when Jasper came over.
"Tomorrow Alice invited us to go out with them." Jasper told me.
"Have fun and be safe" I instructed.
"I'm always safe, but she told me I have to bring you or else." He said.
"I'm not going."
"You have to she said or else" Jasper pleaded.
"Are you afraid of a little girl?" I asked, "You have only known her a couple of hours." I added.
"She is different I can feel it and Rosalie said I don't want to be on Alice's bad side" Jasper explained.
"Fine I will go but next time don't make promises for other people." I told him.
So I would see my Bella again. Ugh I'm getting to possessive.
