Chapter One: Caught in the Act
Bella's POV
It's been a month since the fight with Victoria's army. Edward and I are engaged and are planning the wedding. I'm heading over to the Cullen house right now in my truck.
I finally make it to the house and Esme opens the door before I can exit the car. She smiles once she sees me, I return the gesture. She's like a mother to me, and Carlisle my father.
"Hello Bella, Edward is in his room waiting for you. Alice is with him discussing music and tuxes." Esme said giving me a hug.
"Thanks Esme." I back away from her embrace and start to walk to Edward's room. From outside the door, I hear moans and pants. Furrowing my eyebrows in question, I open the door is total shock.
Edward and Alice together, in bed. They realize that someone is watching and see me standing there in the doorway with wide eyes. Angry and sorrowful tears gather in my eyes as I rip off Elizabeth Masons ring and throw it to Edward and Alice.
"IT"S OVER, JACKASS!" I yell. I storm out of the room and out the front door to the house, ignoring Esme's calls of my names. "JASPER, MEET ME AT MY HOUSE PRONTO!" I yell to the wood knowing he would hear me.
I jump into my truck and drive home. It's a Wednesday so Charlie is at work and his girlfriend Sue is probably giving him lunch. I really don't need and interrogation from him. Seth and Leah are probably at home right now. Driving home, I let out the sobs and tears. I don't know how I could see through the blur of tears, but I was finally at home. Seth and Leah are in the front porch in their usual cutoffs and sleeveless shirts.
Opening the door to my to my truck, I fall out on the grass on my knees letting go of ugly sobs. Leah and Seth quickly jog to me worried about what happened to me and wanting to comfort me.
"What happened, Bells?" I heard Jasper running towards the three of us.
"A-a-Alice an-and Ed-ward were shagging when I w-went to talk a-about the we-wedding. I can't believe they would do this to us." I exclaimed through tears. Leah and Seth give me hugs as I cling to them. Seth became my brother from the moment I met him, and Leah was hesitant but soon opened up to me. Jasper looked at the ground with wide eyes, venom tears pooling in his eyes. "I'm so sorry, Jazz. You've been with her for a long time, and I know it must hurt to find out about this."
"It wasn't your fault, Belly. I stopped loving Alice a while ago, I just didn't want to hurt her." Jasper said. After a while of crying from me and comforting from the others, I finally calmed down.
"I won't let Fuck-ward hurt me anymore. I have an idea. I'm going to start over. Move somewhere and be a new person." I declared putting on a look of determination.
"Where will you go?" Seth asked. I thought for a minute. There were so many places; Los Angeles, England, Washington D.C., New Jersey…
"New York. I'll go there, I'll still be Bella Swan, but a new and improved Bella. No more being weak and plain, I'm going to have a fresh start."
"I'm going with you. There is no way I'm letting my sister go alone. I was thinking about leaving Forks and La Push, but wasn't sure what I'd do when I did leave. And you just became my sister, I'm not leaving you." Leah said looking me straight in the eyes.
"I'm going too, you're my sisters. It's going to be lonely not listening to you two talk about girl stuff." Seth said smiling to Leah and I.
"I will too. You need all the help you can get to start anew. Plus I've always wanted to go to New York." Jasper said.
"It's official, we're leaving to New York. When should we leave?" Leah asked looking at the boys and me.
"As soon as possible so we won't be bothered by them. Pack what you need and we'll go. I'll go to the Cullen house and pack, I'll just ignore the other and give them negative emotions if I have to." Jasper said emotionless.
"Be careful, Jazz. Edward could be ruthless if he has to and Alice could be possessive of you." I said. His emotionless face softened and he smiled at me.
"I'll be fine, Bell-sy. I am the Major after all." He said in his Southern accent.
"Good luck Major Whitlock." Seth said mock saluting. Jasper snorted and rolled his eyes. He hit Seth's back to make him stand up straight, fixed his arm to make it a perfect salute and pushed his chin up.
"Better, lieutenant. I'll be back guys." He said before speeding out the house to go pack.
"Well I'm gonna pack for the trip. NEW YORK BRUH, WHOO!" Seth yelled running upstairs. I giggled while Leah rolled her eyes, but a hint of a smile showed on her lips.
"Don't repeat history, don't become an empty shell. You are strong sis, show the world the strength that they have been missing." Leah said seriously. I nodded.
"Thanks Leah." I gave her a hug which she gladly returned. We broke apart and went to pack what we needed.
I grabbed my toiletries, seven pairs of skinny jeans, twelve shirts, three hoodies, my black leather jacket and my red on too (which I hid from Alice), two pairs of shoes, some money, a photo of the pack, mom, dad, and Phil, and the Cullens. In the photo for the Cullens I saw that Edward was on the far right and Alice on the far left.
I scowled at the two and grabbed a pair of scissors, cutting both ends. I burned those two pieces and put the scissors and photos away. I continued to pack my stuff; a can of pepper spray, my pocket knife which Charlie got me, and my iPod.
I heard a thump from the window and gave a squeal of surprise when I saw Jasper there with a duffle bag. I put a hand to my heart and threw the closest thing I could grab at him which he caught thankfully, it was a hand mirror.
"Jasper Anthony Whitlock, are you trying to give me a heart attack?! Jesus Christ, let me restart my heart." I said exasperated. He just smirked in a 'Major' way (pun noted).
"My apologies, ma'am. Didn't mean to startle you, lil' lady. You ready?" He asked. I nodded once making sure that I was breathing normally.
"Yeah I am, I don't know about Sethy-Boo and LeLe." I said grabbing my duffle bag.
"We're down here, Clot-poles. Hurry up, jeez you guys are slow." Rolling my eyes at my brother, I walked downstairs without tripping.
"You are way too into that TV show, Seth." Leah said. "I already left a note by the way from the four of us explaining why we left."
"Hey, Merlin is an awesome British TV show. And who was it that said Merlin, Gwaine, Arthur, and Percival were, and I quote: 'totally hot knights in shining armor.'" Seth teased, causing Leah to blush a little. She punched Seth in the arm… hard.
"You promised you wouldn't talk about that. Ugh, I'm going to wait outside." Leah said grabbing her bag and walking outside, ignoring Jasper and Seth laughing.
"Come on, I brought my car with me. I'll drive us to Seattle airport so we can fly to New York." Jazz said leading Seth and I to his car which was a black Ford Mustang with a red stripe going across the middle.
We all got in, putting our bags in the trunk. Jasper was driving, Leah riding shotgun, and Seth and I in the back playing on our PS3s. We played medieval games while connected to each others profiles. Sometimes cursing out and exclaiming who to kill and where to go.
~~~TIMESKIP~~~
We finally made it to the airport, Jasper paid for the tickets to New York. We argued about who will pay, Jasper said he would but Leah, Seth, and I wanted to get each of our money and pay for our own ticket, but Jasper left no argument and payed when we weren't looking.
We boarded the plane and sat together. The seats were two on one side and two on the other. Seth and Leah were on one side with Jasper and I on the other. I didn't mind much, at least he doesn't have to feel the Cullens bloodlust or else it'd be a blood bath.
The plane took off taking us to our new life in New York. Tomorrow we will see what the city has in store for us.
************TWELVE MONTHS LATER************
"Yo Jazz, I need shots of tequilas and two beers, Samuel Adams." Leah said to Jazz while he was behind the bar.
"Comin' up, lil' lady." Jazz said.
This was out new and awesome lives. Leah, Seth, Jasper, and I now own a bar called The Cliff. It was awesome, we all pitched in to make it look awesome. The bar was like any other, the walls were a light chocolate color, there were paintings of wolves that reminded me of the pack, the clearing of the battle with the newborns, First Beach Cliffs, and rocky mountains.
Each of us had our own part in it. Leah was the waitress and the bouncer. Seth was the bouncer and the cook surprisingly. Jasper was the bartender, and trust me, he makes awesome margaritas. And I was a waitress, co-cook (if that's a thing), and the bar musician. Yeah you heard me, I can sing and play instruments. Like piano, guitar, and bass. Sometimes we switch positions. Like Leah at the bar, Jazz in the kitchen, Seth playing (which he is really good at, he mostly sings Green Day), and me as the waitress.
Leah was walking around in her favorite black skinny jeans and black tank-top. Seth was in the kitchen in his gray shirt and dark jeans. There was a window showing the kitchen at the bar. Jazz was wearing a black and red button up, jeans, and cowboys boot. Jasper Whitlock is back, bitches. And I was on our small stage singing any song that our customers wanted.
"Hey, Bella." Said a woman in the audience, Bethany. She comes here a lot, probably because she likes Jasper. Truth be told, Jasper likes her too. He told Lele, Sethy, and I that he feels a connection to her. Their mates, yay! But Jasper is too much of a sissy to ask her out.
"Hey Beth, you got a song request?" I asked walking up to her.
"Yeah, are you familiar 'I Won't Give Up' by Jason Mraz?" She asked.
"Hell yeah, that is my favorite song. I'll get my guitar." I said. I ran up the small stage and got my acoustic guitar from the stand holding it. I sit on the stool and get ready to sing, everyone in the bar immediately quiets down a bit, that's when I start strumming.
When I look into your eyes
It's like watching the night sky
Or a beautiful sunrise
Well, there's so much they hold
And just like them old stars
I see that you've come so far
To be right where you are
How old is your soul?
A group of eight people came in. Three women and five guys. Both women had red hair and lightly tan skin, but the third woman had brown hair and tan skin. One man had sand brown hair, slightly tan skin, and blue eyes. Another had black hair, a goatee, and blue eyes. Another had black hair, tan skin, and brown eyes. The next man had blond hair that reached his jaw line, blue eyes, and a muscular build like Seth. The last man had short dirty blond hair, and clear blue eyes. He was handsome.
Well, I won't give up on us
Even if the skies get rough
I'm giving you all my love
I'm still looking up
At this moment, I locked eyes with the short haired blond man. And I couldn't look away. The rest of the song, my eyes stayed on his. Afraid that if I look away, he'll disappear.
And when you're needing your space
To do some navigating
I'll be here patiently waiting
To see what you find
'Cause even the stars they burn
Some even fall to the earth
We've got a lot to learn
God knows we're worth it
No, I won't give up
I don't wanna be someone who walks away so easily
I'm here to stay and make the difference that I can make
Our differences they do a lot to teach us how to use
The tools and gifts we got, yeah, we got a lot at stake
And in the end, you're still my friend at least we did intend
For us to work we didn't break, we didn't burn
We had to learn how to bend without the world caving in
I had to learn what I've got, and what I'm not, and who I am
I won't give up on us
Even if the skies get rough
I'm giving you all my love
I'm still looking up, still looking up.
Well, I won't give up on us (no I'm not giving up)
God knows I'm tough enough (I am tough, I am loved)
We've got a lot to learn (we're alive, we are loved)
God knows we're worth it (and we're worth it)
I won't give up on us
Even if the skies get rough
I'm giving you all my love
I'm still looking up
The audience in the bar claps and cheers. I smiled to them and the mystery man I with whom I played a staring contest with. I put my guitar back on the stand and head to the bar for a drink.
"Hey ya, sista from anotha mista. What can I get ya?" Jazz asked putting his elbow on the bar table with his chin on his palm. It's awesome he decided to go back tp his Southern accent. I teased him by copying him.
"Well brotha from anotha motha, I would like one of your famous margarita's." I said.
"What do you say?" He said smirking.
"Jasper Whitlock is the most amazing bartender in all of New York and that he should finally ask out a certain girl *cough*Bethany*cough*table nine*cough." He glared at me when I said where Bethany was.
"I can't, I'm afraid I'll screw up and embarrass myself in front of her." Jasper said shaking his head. He was still making my drink while he was talking to me.
"Come on Jazz, you like her. She likes you. If you ask her out you two will be like this." I said crossing my fingers That was when Mr. Goatee walked up to Jazz and I.
"If I may. Mr. Whitlock, how much do you like this girl?" He asked.
"Like I want to run away with her and elope." Jasper said. I bit my lip to contain my laughter, and started to hit my head on the bar.
"Well, if you like her that much, and if what this lady says is true about her liking you as well. Take a chance, I bet there is no way she will say no to you, you seem like a nice guy." Goatee said.
"And I swear Jasper, if you don't ask her out soon, I will get Seth and Leah to drag you here to the bar where I will be waiting with a blindfolded Bethany ready for a date." I said wiggling a finger in his face. He swatted my hand away and ruffled my hair. I slapped his hand away and started to fix my hair. "Never do that again, that takes two hours in the morning fixing this rat's nest." I growled to him.
"Whatever, here's your drink ma'am." He gave me my margarita, which I drank. It's sooo goood. I forgot goatee was still here.
"I don't think I introduced myself, I'm Tony Stark." He held his hand out for me to shake.
"Isabella Swan, but call me Bella." I pointed my finger to Jazz. "This is Jasper Whitlock." I said.
"Pleasure to meet you, sir." Jazz said.
"Ooh, 'sir'. Never been called that before. You see that Clint, this young gentleman called me 'sir'." Tony said proudly. The sandy haired man came up to us.
"Well, he may be a gentleman, but you are an outright moron. Clint Barton nice to meet you." We shook hands.
"Bella Swan, nice to meet you. This is Jasper." Jazz nodded to Clint who returned the gesture.
"Let's introduce her to the others." Tony suggested. He took my elbow, not giving me a moment to say 'no'. We walked up the other five who were talking at the other side of the bar.
"Tony, you didn't kidnap the poor girl have you." Said one of the red head women.
"No Pepper, I just wanted to introduce her to the others. Bella this is Pepper, Bruce, Thor, Maria, Natasha, and Steve." Each of them waved while the dirty blond, Steve smiled to me.
"It's nice to meet you guys. Welcome to the Cliff." I said.
"It's a nice bar, all the decor, the paintings. They look amazing." Bruce commented. I blushed and fidgeted.
"Uh, they're um, my paintings." I said. All seven pairs of eyes turned to me.
"You? You painted these?" Clint asked. I nodded, still blushing.
"They're amazing." Steve said. I blushed even more.
"Hey, Bell-sy. Who're your new friends?" Leah asked walking to me and the group.
"Guys this is Leah, my sister in anything but this is Tony, Pepper, Clint, Natasha, Maria, Steve, Thor, and Bruce." She looked to each of them nodding in a greeting. And when she landed on Bruce, she wouldn't look away. I look between the two of them and see them wearing the same expressions on their faces. Adoring, awe, love…
Leah almost drops the empty tray in her hands. If It weren't for my recently acquired reflexes, I wouldn't have caught it.
"Nice save." Natasha said.
"Thanks. If you'll excuse me, Leah and I have to help our brother in the kitchen real quick." I said putting an arm around her shoulders. I led her to the kitchen where Seth was waiting for us question. Once he saw his sisters dazed and longing, he got worried. "Leah finally imprinted." I said. Seth had a look of happiness on his face.
Seth hugged his sister, snapping her out of her daze. She returned the hugs smiling wide. A twinkle showing in her eyes that was only there once in a while.
"I imprinted. I imprinted." Leah repeats in whispers. She starts to cry happy tears. The three of us hug close together, with Leah crying tears of joy. Jasper chose this moment to walk into the kitchen in concern.
"What happened, I felt a disturbance in the force." Jasper said. Him and his star wars fandom. He likes to call his empathic ability the force. Leah turned to him smiling and crying.
"I finally found my imprint. I found my soul mate." Jasper smiled widely and grabs her in a hug, spinning her around.
"That's awesome Leah. You finally found the one you're meant to be with. Now, wipe away those tears of joy, smile, and talk to him. Wait, what's his name?"
"Bruce. His name is Bruce." I said. Leah once again got a dazed look in her eyes. Jazz snapped his fingers in front of her eyes, making her come back to reality. "Question, what time are Emmett and Rosalie coming to do their monthly visit?" I asked.
Rosalie and Emmett have always known we were here in New York. They come and visit the bar for a couple weeks every other month. Rosalie and I grew closer after what happened with Fuckward and the pixie bitch. Rosalie even grew closer to Seth and Leah. We would all go out some nights and do whatever. The pack and their imprints come to visit too. Charlie know where we are so he comes and checks up on us too.
And just as Jasper is about to answer me, we hear the door open and close loudly.
"Emmett in the house, bitches!" We heard. Then cheers and hoots were heard. Everyone in the bar loves Emmett like their own brother. I kick the door to the kitchen open and see Emmett and Rosalie there.
"Emmy-bear, Rosie-polie." I screeched running to them for a huge hug. No matter how many times they visit, I'm always excited to see them.
"Cow-Bells. What's good little sis'?" Emmett asked giving me a huge bear hug.
"I've been good. And good news: Leah finally imprinted." I said. I felt a presence from beside me and knew it was Leah. Rosalie gasped and squealed, along with Leah and I. We started to jump up and down holding each others hands. From the corner of my eye, Jasper, Seth, and Emmett were covering their ears and looking to each other.
"Oh my god, I'm so happy for you. What's his name, when did you see him, is he here?" Rosalie asked once we stopped jumping.
"His name is Bruce. I saw him here when Bella introduced me to a group of eight. There at the end of the bar. He is the guy with the black hair and the purple button up." Rosalie saw him and smiled to Leah.
"He is handsome, I can see it now. You and him at the arbor saying your vows. Him in a tuxedo and you being the lady in white." Rosalie said.
"Don't jump to conclusions. I have to get to know him first. Jazz, let's switch places. You be the waiter and I'll take the bar." Leah said giving him the tray and note pad and pen.
"You got it ma'am. I'm doing this so you can get to know your imprint and finally be happy." Jazz said smiling to Leah and then walked away to serve people.
"Now, back to work." Seth said pointing a finger to the ceiling and walking back to the kitchen like that. He kicked the door open, only for it to hit him in the face. "Ow, funky butt lover!" Seth exclaimed.
"Funky butt lover?" I heard Clint ask Leah at the bar. She just shrugged and said 'That's just my brother being himself.'
"Okay, I'm going up on stage and singing a song. You can do whatever, talk to the eight at the bar that are with Leah's imprint." I said to Rosalie and Emmett. They nodded and went to sit at the bar.
When they come over to the bar, they like to take shots of anything. It's awesome they can drink alcohol. When we drink, it's funny to see them get hammered. I just happen to be the designated driver.
I walk up to the small stage and sit on the piano stool. I sing the song that I love and expresses what I feel.
An empty room,
I'm empty too
And everything reminds me of you
So many things
I shouldn't have missed
The more that I push
And the more you resist
It's easy to say it's for the best
When you want more
While you leave me with less
I know you're fine, but what do I do?
I know you're fine, but what do I do?
I'm awake, and trying
While you're sleeping like a babe
Beside him
I'm on the ledge while you're so
God damn polite and composed
And I know you see me,
And you're making it look so easy
What comes and goes,
I'd go without
I know you're fine but what about

Through the Fallout
(Fallout), Fallout (fallout), fallout (fallout)
You're the fallout
Well now there's him,
And now there's me
The secrets you give
And the secrets you keep
And nevertheless
It's never you let
The more that I give
And the less that I get
Don't tell me to fight,
To fight for you
After this long, I shouldn't have to
I know you're fine, but what do I do?
I know you're fine, but what do I do?
I'm awake, and trying
While you're sleeping like a babe
Beside him
I'm on the ledge while you're so
God damn polite and composed

FALLOUT
This song reminds me about what happened with Mr. Cheater-Sparkle-Asshole-Jerkward. All the pain he put me through, when he left me in the fucking forest, being a shell for months, making me go anorexic. I should've left him in Volterra.
I was brought out of my stupor by everyone in the bar clapping except, Jazz, Leah, Seth (who came out of the kitchen), Rosalie, Emmett and the other eight looking at me worried. Only then did I realize that tears fell from my eyes. I quickly wiped them away, hoping no one else noticed. But the thirteen people I know/met saw them. I walked to the bar where I left my margarita. But it was right near where Tony, Pepper, Clint, and all then were sitting.
"You okay?" Maria asked. I nodded.
"I'm fine, it's just that song brings back painful memories." Seth came to sit by my side and give me a side hug.
"It's in the past, sis. He's gone and out of your life." Seth said.
"Thanks Seth, you're awesome." I commented. Seth shrugged and puffed out his chest.
"I know I am." I head Maria laugh a little while she was looking at her drink.
"Maria this is Seth, my brother from another mother and Leah's actual brother. Seth this is Maria. A friends of Bruce's." I whispered the last part knowing he would hear me.
Seth looked to Maria and froze, so did Maria. Leah was right in front of me behind the bar smiling to Seth and Maria. Seth imprinted. I smiled wildly. An idea just popped into my head.
"Seth, I'm going to take over in the kitchen. Why don't you and Maria get to know each other?" I suggested. He smiled and Maria.
"I would love to get to know her." He said confidently, making Maria blush and his smile grow larger, if it were possible. I went to the kitchen and started to make whatever people ordered when Jazz came back.
I turned to the sink only to see Emmett standing there with a creepy grin. I screeched and dropped the empty pan that was in my hand.
"EMMETT ASHTON CULLEN, ARE YOU TRYING TO GIVE ME A HEART ATTACK?!" I yelled making the whole bar look through the window in amusement. This has been a usual thing in the bar when Emmett visited. Emmett is standing in front of me holding his stomach while he was laughing.
I'm sorry Bell-sy. You should've seen the look on your face." He said laughing. I gave him my hardest death glare causing him to stop laughing and flinch.
I grabbed his ear and dragged him out of the kitchen. Recently I found out that I am distantly Quileute, so I acquired their strength. Now I'm strong enough to punch Emmett in the stomach when I have too.
"Ow ow ow, come on sis it was a joke, ow ow ow." I gripped his ear harder.
"A joke, you think trying to kill me is a joke? Giving me a heart attack. Jesus Emmett I should have Leah and Rosalie punish you for being such a clotpole." I exclaimed.
"Ha, I told you she would quote Merlin, Jasper. You owe me thirty bucks, bruh." Seth yelled to the other side of the joint. Jasper growled and walked to Seth getting his wallet out and pulling the needed amount.
"You're lucky you're like my brother, Seth. Or else you'd get pummeled by the God of War." Jasper said glaring at Seth.
"Bring it, Yoda." Seth said standing up from his stool and putting his arm out. They start to chest up on each other when Leah grabs Jaspers shoulder and Maria puts her hand on Seths. Said man turned to his imprint and smiled.
"Should we be concerned?" Clint asked me. I shook my head.
A few hours went by and the place emptied out. The only ones left were me, Seth, Leah, Jazz, Bethany, Emmett, Rosalie, Tony, Clint, Bruce, Natasha, Maria, Pepper, Thor, and Steve. The blinds were closed at the front windows and the sign said closed.
"I am so bored. There is nothing to do right now." Just after Seth said this, I heard a scratch and a whimper. Oh my gosh, we totally forgot about Little Brother.
"Good Merlin, Seth go get Little Brother. How could we forget our boy?" I asked rhetorically. Seth got up from his seat and opened the door at the back of the bar. The door opened to reveal our awesome St. Bernard , Little Brother. Oh the irony in his name.
"Hey, buddy." Leah said standing up. Little Brother jumped up and put his paws on Leahs shoulders, then started to lick her face. She laughed as he did this. "Okay, okay, love ya too, Little Brother."
"Oh my gosh he so adorable." Pepper exclaimed petting him.
"The name we chose for him was quite ironic and a funny story." Seth said walking back to take his seat next to Maria. "Little Brother here was a pup then. We were having a movie marathon and Little Brother here found the DVD case for Mulan. We played the movie and when the it said 'Little Brother', said pup started to bark at the name. Thus the name choosing for Little Brother." Said dog was licking Emmetts chin and covering him in slobber.
"These two are like best friends." Rosalie said causing us all to laugh as Little Brother turned to her and tilted his head to look cute. "Oh, you know you're cute." L.B. barked in response.
"So how long have you guys been living here?" Bruce asked looking to Leah.
"About a year, things got complicated back home so we decided to start off fresh." Leah answered.
"What happened, if you do not mind my asking." Thor bellowed. He was just like Emmett, loud and buffed up like they were going to explode.
"We don't mind. Twelve months ago, we lived in Forks, Washington. My dad, Charlie was dating Seth and Leah's mom. Jasper was dating Alice Cullen, and I was engaged to her adoptive brother Edward. I was at their house one day to talk about the wedding when I caught the pixie bitch and Edweird in bed shagging." I growled out. Leah took hold of my hand and gave it a small squeeze. I smiled to her. Jasper continued the story.
"Bella called me and told me to meet her at her house. When I got there I saw Leah and Seth comforting Bella who was crying on her front porch. Bella told me about Alice and Edward. We went into her house and talked about it. I wasn't really devastated, but I did feel like a fool for ever loving Alice. I stopped loving her a while before that, but I didn't want to hurt her feelings. Bella decided she wanted to leave Forks and start of somewhere new. Leah, Seth, and I chose to stick with someone who was like our sister. We packed our bags and flew here to New York. And now here we are in the Cliff." Jasper said motioning to the bar. He sat back in his chair and put his arm on the back of Bethany's seat. Thor looked about ready to murder, he sat up quickly causing his seat to fall back.
"HOW COULD HE DO THIS TO YOU? HE IS A NO GOOD CHEATING SKUNK BAG?" He bellowed causing us to cover our ears.
"Skunk bag?" Tony said.
"He doesn't deserve to be with anyone if he's going to cheat on you, Bella. You deserve better." Steve said.
"Thank you, Steve. I'm over him. When I looked back on our relationship, I saw how manipulative he was. He told me what to wear, what to do, what not to do, what to eat, how to act... I should've wrecked his precious Volvo when I had the chance." I said.
"Hey, how about we play twenty questions?" Steve suggested, switching topics. Everyone agreed and we went one at a time asking questions while we all answered them.
"I'll go first," Seth piped up. "Favorite color or colors?"
"Red, white, and blue." Steve said.
"Black." Natasha said.
"Black and purple." said Clint.
"Navy blue and black." Maria.
"Red, blue and silver." Thor said.
"Green and purple." Bruce.
"Red and gold." Tony.
"Gold and green." Jazz.
"Grey and black." Bethany.
"Green." Leah said.
"Red and white." Pepper.
"I like blue and green." I said.
"Red and pink." Rosalie.
"Blue." Emmett
"My turn! Favorite TV show." Tony said.
"Teen Wolf." Leah said. Seth, Jazz, Rose, Emmett, and I shared a knowing look.
"Doctor Who." Bruce said.
"Merlin." Seth.
"I love Merlin and Sherlock." Maria said.
"Mine would be Friends." Pepper said.
"Torchwood." Clint.
"Witches of East End." Natasha.
"Cake Boss." Thor.
"Band of Brothers." Steve.
"Sabrina the Teenage Witch." Rosalie.
"Being Human." Emmett.
"I would have to agree with Steve on Band of Brothers." Jazz.
"I love Vampire Diaries." I said.
"I agree Bells, I love that show." Bethany said.
"I know my turn already went, but where have I seen you guys before?" Seth asked looking at Clint, Natasha, Steve, Tony, Bruce, and Thor curiously. Seth had a point, I feel like I've seen them before.
"Yeah you guys do look familiar. Maybe on TV or maybe around the streets. Were you guys here for that alien invasion? Maybe you were running around the place and we saw you." Leah guessed. That's when I finally recognized them from the news.
"Aha, you- You guys are the Avengers. You saved us all from those butt ugly aliens." I exclaimed pointing to each of them.
"Holy Hell! You guys are like my heroes, and Thor you are my idol!" Emmett said bouncing up and down like a kid on Christmas.
"Why thank you, Sir Emmett." Thor said shaking hands with Emmett. Emmet let go of Thor's hand and couldn't help but look star struck.
"I want to thank you guys for saving New York. You saved countless lives including ours. And Tony, what you did with that missile was the ultimate sacrifice. You went through a closing portal, not everyday you see or do something like that. 'Honey I'm home from work.'" I said imitating Tony's voice as well as Peppers. "'Hi Tony, how did work go?', 'Oh you know killing aliens, blasting apart villains spaceships, guiding a missile into a closing portal for the lives of everyone in New York. The usual.'" Everyone laughed as I said this, and Little Brother barked. I smiled at our four legged friend.
"It was our pleasure Bella. It's what us Avengers do, fight for those who can't fight for themselves." At Tony's words, me, Leah, Seth, Emmett and Rosalie all stood up looking tough.
"Who says we can't fight for ourselves?" Leah said smirking.
"Well, you five do have a fit or muscular build. But do you know how to fight?" Clint asked.
"Leah, Jasper, Emmett, Rosalie, and I are already skilled in combat." Seth said.
"I used to be a klutz. When we came to New York, I took karate classes to help with self defense and my balance. I bet I could kick Big Birds ass." I said jabbing my thumb to Clint who looked offended.
"Hey, I am not Big Bird, my name is Hawkeye. Repeat after me Hawke-" Before he could finish, I shoved one of my famous wings in his mouth. "Mmph, this is really good Bella." He said before digging into the plate of wings.
"*Coughcough*Cannibalism*coughcough*." Seth said. Clint glared at him before passing him a wing, obviously Seth ate it. The rest of us rolled our eyes at the boys antics.
"Should we tell them?" I whispered so only my wolfy and vamp family could hear. They nodded, even Rosalie who wanted to keep the secret, and we turned to the group.
"Since we know about you guys being Earth's mightiest heroes, we should tell you our secret." Jasper began. We all sobered up and straightened out, putting on straight faces. Jasper, Rosalie, and Emmett told them about them being Cold Ones.
"Wait, you guys are vampires. As in wooden stakes, sleeps in coffins, fangs, burning in the sun vampires?" Tony asked. Me, Seth, Leah, Jasper, Rosalie, and Emmett face-palmed.
"No, that's all myths. They don't have but they have super strong teeth. They don't coffins, in fact they don't sleep at all. They don't burn in the sun, they sparkle. The only reason they weren't sparkling when they came was because we found a witch who made jewelry for that situation. They can't be killed with wooden stakes, they have rock solid skin, but they can tear each other apart. If you rip off Emmetts finger he can reattach it, but if the finger were burned on fire he couldn't get it back when it's a pile of ashes." Leah explained.
"You're a vampire, Jasper?" asked Bethany through her silence. Jasper looked to her sadly and nodded. She just threw her arms around him and hugged him close. "I don't care. You're still you." Jasper smiled in relief and hugged her back.
"So why do you, Seth, and Bella know about them?" Natasha asked. Leah and Seth exchanged a look and turned back to them.
"Seth and I are shapeshifters. We can change into wolves the size of horses. We have fast metabolisms, fast healing, heightened senses, strength, extra growth on our bodies, and we run on a body temperature of one-hundred and eight." Leah said. Bruce and and Maria looked shocked at their imprinters.
"That's amazing. I can feel the heat from where I sit, Lady Leah." Thor said.
"Oh-kayy, that was not awkward." She said sarcastically.
"But what do you have to do with this, Bella?" Steve asked. I went on and told them the whole story. Moving to Forks, seeing the Cullens for the first time, falling in love with Edward, James, Laurent, Victoria, Jacob, my eighteenth birthday, Edward leaving me in the goddamn forest, being an empty shell, meeting the pack and slowly coming back to life, Volterra, saving Edward, the newborn battle, Edward proposing, and then the cheating. No one interrupted, but there were tears coming from Pepper, Bethany, Maria, even Natasha who I was told to be hard and serious.
"I'm so sorry you had to go through that, Bella. Edward didn't deserve someone as great as you. The only thing keeping me from flying to Forks and kicking Edwards and Alices ass is the fact that the team, you and your family, and Fury will have my ass going alone and enjoying all the fun." Natasha said smiling to me. She reached across the table and gently took my hand in hers. "I can tell you and I are gonna be great friends. Plus the only girl friends I have are Pepper and Maria. The others have too much testosterone."
"Hey!" All the guys exclaimed, even Little Brother gave a small growl, a bark, and a whine. Natasha just rubbed his chin and kissed his nose.
"Oh you know you're cute, Little Brother." I looked to the guys of the Avengers and they looked to Natasha shocked.
"Did Natasha, the Black Widow, the most deadly assassin just kiss a dog on the nose and call him cute?" Tony said putting a hand to his arc reactor.
"Do my eyes deceive me?" Thor whispered, quite loudly may I note.
"I'm hallucinating. Whatever Loki did to me months ago must be affecting me again." Clint said hitting the side of his head and rubbing his eyes.
"No comment." Steve said. Bruce nodded agreeing with him. Natasha gave a glare to Clint, Thor, and Tony that looked so deadly, they would be six feet under. They flinched under her stare and gave a sheepish look. Little Brother whined and rested his head on Natasha's lap. Natasha began to rub his ear, after a few minutes he yawned, making me, Leah, Thor, and Maria yawn as well.
"I'm beat. We should probably get some rest." Bruce said. "But uh… Can I, um, talk to you Leah?" He asked rubbing the back of his neck looking nervous. Leah looked to him and nodded.
"Of course." Leah and Bruce walked out the front door to talk. I turned to see Maria and Seth talking, both of them wearing bright smiles on their faces.
"Come on guys, let's go." Clint said. Before Maria left, she gave Seth a kiss on the cheek making him smile even more.
"I'll see you then, Seth." She said blushing a little.
"Yeah, see ya." He said dazed.
"We're probably gonna come back tomorrow. This place is better than that shawarma place across the street. I know I'm coming back." Tony said pointing to himself.
"I will too," said Thor who was standing next to Emmett. Thor put a hand on Emmetts shoulder. "I have made new friends and wish to know them better."
"Awesome. We'll see you guys soon." Rosalie said smiling to them all. But mostly to Pepper, Natasha, and Maria who smiled back.
"Definitely, maybe even a shopping day. I just feel like having one." Pepper said.
"Me too. I get bored easily." Rosalie said scrunching her nose.
Leah and Bruce chose this moment to come back in with small smiles on their faces. I looked to Leah with a raised eyebrow, she just mouthed 'later.'
"It was great to be here and get to know you guys. I'll be gladly coming back tomorrow with Tony, Thor, and Pepper. This place is great, and the owners are great to." Steve said mostly looking to me. I blushed and shifted on my feet. The whole time, I saw through the corner of my eye that Jasper and Bethany were talking to themselves at the bar, holding hands, smiling, looking into each others eyes.
"Let's go guys. If we don't go sooner or later, I'll fall asleep on that tiny stage hugging that guitar." Clint said yawning. The others nodded in agreement and exited, saying bye one last time. Bethany ended her conversation with Jasper and gathered her stuff.
"I'll see you guys tomorrow. Bye guys, bye Jasper." She said kissing Jasper on the cheek. And then she left.
Once they were gone, I looked to Rosalie and Emmett, the three of us looked to Leah, Seth, and Jasper who had dazed looks on their faces. I smirked to Rose and Em then to the three.
"Okay Three Stooges, spill the beans. Give us the juicy story." I said referring to Rose, Em, and I.
"I'm going on a date next Monday with Bruce! That's like in four days!" Leah exclaimed.
"I asked Maria and we're going this Friday." Seth said hopping up and down.
"I'm going to take her to dinner on Sunday. My mate finally knows about me and she accepted me." said Jasper going on his knees and pumping his fists in a victorious movement.
"This calls for a celebration." Emmett said pointing a finger to the sky and turning on the radio on the stage. The song that played was 'Latch' by Closure. Rosalie and Emmett started to dance with each other, with Leah and I following; her doing the leading and me following along. I turned to see Jasper dip Seth, who had a rose in his mouth. Where'd he get the rose?
Leah and I busted out laughing. Little Brother was on the stage hopping on hi hind-legs, dancing. It looked so adorable. I quickly pulled out my phone and took a video, sending it to Charlie, Sue, Mom, Phil, the pack, Emmett, Rosalie, Seth, and Leah's phone. Maybe I'll post it on Youtube.
A.N. So how did I do? Leave a review and I'll post the next chapter when I can as I'm helpong my cousin with her newborn baby boy! So Love you guys! Till next time on Mrs. Swan-Rodgers!
