We've Got Problems
Bella's point of view:
I sat on the couch next to Edward, well on him was more like it. He held me almost in his lap. We were discussing the wedding despite my unwillingness. He was trying to get me to tell him what the dress looked like. I continued to refuse him. He would see it when the time came.
It would have been nice if we were alone. No all the Cullens were having a loud fit over something or other. Alice was trying to get her credit cards from were she thought Rosalie had hid them. What she didn't no was Jasper took them and was getting something from Newton's Outfitters. No one dared tell her because then there might be one less Cullen.
Emmett was trying to help Esme paint the kitchen, or so she thought. He was just trying to smuggle out some paint for his latest prank. Rosalie was trying to find the wrench. The jeep started to leak oil and she was fixing. Carlisle was trying to write a paper for hospital in his office. The door opened and Jasper came quietly through, so that Alice wouldn't hear him.
Before he could run of though, Carlisle came in. "Jasper please sit down, there is something that we all need to discuss." Jasper sat and Alice appeared at his side. She glared at him. "Jazz how could you? Do my needs matter to you at all?' Carlisle sighed and Alice immediately quieted down,
"I've been trying to finish this paper for three weeks and all you do is bicker. You all have problems with each other; I think there is way to fix that though." Alice and Edward both groaned. "Carlisle, I don't think therapy will help us, especially with a human therapist. What are we going to do, tell him we are vampires?" Edward said. "No Edward, but tell him as much as you can without giving that away."
Maybe this could work. "I think it's a good idea I said. Maybe we could try it and then decide." I knew if I went Edward would come along. But he whispered in my ear, "This won't turn out well love." I ignored him and looked around the room. Rosalie was glaring at me, Emmett was almost laughing, Jasper was quiet and Alice pouted. Esme was fine with what Carlisle thought would work.
The next day
Edward drove the Volvo to the therapist's office. We were alone and it was finally quiet. I knew that Edward would have drove faster if I let him, but Jasper and Emmett were betting on how long it would take to get here and wanted to see who would win. When we got there I saw Emmett give Jasper a twenty dollar bill.
We all went in the office. It was nicely furbished. Roses were placed on the secretary's desk. The walls and ceiling were pale blue. There was a large bulletin with lists of patients and their appointment times. I also had a phone number for each on. The doctor came out of the door on the right.
Edward leaned in next to my ear. "His name is Dr. Gilmore. He has been a therapist for five years and is already making a list of what could be wrong with us." I sighed. Maybe this was a bad idea. Carlisle introduced us and Dr. Gilmore asked us to sit. "I'd like to talk with you all together. Who do think should go first?"
Rosalie coughed and it sounded a lot like "Edward". Dr. Gilmore looked at her. "I see you think that your brother should go first. Why?" Rosalie smiled coldly. "Edward tried to commit suicide. Isn't that true Edward?" I winced. I hated talking about that. I knew he did too, but oddly enough he stayed perfectly composed. H e almost seemed to smile. "If you remember correctly Rosalie, you were the one who convinced me to do it." She scowled. Dr. Gilmore looked shocked. He tried only to look at his clipboard and wrote ferociously.
There was silence for a minute before Dr. Gilmore spoke up, "Is it true you tried to commit suicide Edward?" She looked up from her clipboard for the first time. He nodded and I felt tears welling up in my eyes. "But only because Rosalie called me and said that Bella had died." He pulled me closer. He whispered, "Its okay," In my ear.
Dr. Gilmore looked to Rosalie once more. "Why did you tell him Bella died Rosalie?" she asked in shock. Rosalie gained back her confidence, "Alice told me she saw- I mean that some one told her Bella jumped off a cliff." I frowned. "I told you, cliff diving is a sport." I didn't expect them to believe me, I didn't even believe me. Edward sighed.
"It really is my fault, I shouldn't have left you. It's just when Jasper-." I cut him off. "I forgave Jasper, it wasn't his fault he almost killed me." I looked at Jasper to show I meant it. The Doctor looked terrified of us all. This was going to be the longest day ever. Carlisle cleared his throat.
