Hello, Loyal readers! Just a few quick notes, Bella and Edward are no longer an item. The characters are a little...maybe a lot ooc, this idea popped into my head at an unholy hour while I was perfecting the skill on all-nighters. I own nothing of these characters or Twilight they belong solely to Stephanie Myer.
It was another rainy evening in forks, the pitter patter sound of the rain could be heard hitting against the house, the occasional rumble of thunder making scattered appearances throughout the evening. The Cullen's and Bella were all gathered in the living room of the Cullen house. Emmett and Jasper had control of the television, the both of them laid out on their stomachs in front of the television playing a rather competitive game of Mortal Combat. Alice and Rosalie sat side by side looking at different shoe catalogs, after a rather explosive prank war between them and the males in the house they were both in need of new shoes. Across from them on the other couch Edward occupied the left side of the couch watching his brothers playing the game while Esme and Carlisle occupied the other, they were currently discussing the next family vacation. Bella sat on the floor by Carlisle's feet reading a book she got from Jasper that recorded the accounts of what happened during Jasper's time under Maria's control.
With a put off sigh Bella shut her book after reading the same paragraph for the second time in a row. Biting on her bottom lip she pondered a thought for the briefest of moments before saying what the hell and just going for it. "Edward?" she breathed out squaring her shoulders and turning to face him. "I have a question" she paused biting her lip once more. "And I have an answer" Edward responded having gained a sense of humor and loosened up as a person after Bella and the family had an intervention one afternoon. "Are you gay?" she questioned her voice strong, the room fell quiet at the question spoken, conversation ending, the game paused, catalogs and magazines were forgotten. Everyone waiting intently for Edward's response. "What? woah, woah, wait what?" Edward half breathed half wheezed out "Why...where is this coming from?" He looked at her eyes full of question, the only sound in the room was Bella's rhythmic heart beat and the fake breathing of the Cullen's which had become a habit from pretending to be human.
"Nowhere really I've just been thinking and watching...lurking" her voice started off carefree and switching to one of those "old detective voice". She glanced around the room checking the others facial expressions before her gaze returned to rest on Edward. "There's some pretty hard evidence" Her voice cracking at the word hard a giggle escaping. "NO" Edwards' voice rang out loudly and quickly, shaking his head a few times accompanied with mumbled words. "What no. Like who? like how? Where?" He stood swiftly and began pacing around the room which just added to the suspensions. Bella smiled and the others tracking Edwards movements with their eyes. "Edward there's no need to get defensive it's just a simple question." Bella rose up from her position on the floor, standing she placed her book on the end table by the couch. Walking around the couch she approached Edward hand moving up to rest on his shoulder. "Do you like hot-dogs? sausage? eggplant? The big ban beno?" She questioned trying hard to keep a straight face her voice light and joking. Shrugging her hand from his shoulder her moved away from her a few steps.
"No. Puulease. Strictly clitly. No dickly for me " He breathed out his voice dripping in denial. "What Evidence?" Edward question his tone curious even though he meant for it to be unassuming. "There's absolutely no evidence" He turned facing her his arms dropping to hang at his sides, fist curling and giving a little stomp of his foot. Biting her lip to keep a laugh from escaping Bella held her breath for a brief moment. Breathing out harshly from her mouth she took a breath before responding. "There's gay porn on your laptop and your computer has photos of naked men performing coitus in a folder labeled "Piano accompaniment" she stated using air quotes around the words. "I looked in the folder to see if you had recorded anything that I could listen to and when I went online there was a gay porn site open on one of the tabs." she breathed out in a huff of a breath, she sounded very much like a police detective reading of a list of facts from a book. Emmett cackled loudly in the background as Bella questioned Edward, Jasper tried to keep a straight face but it didn't matter his gift spread the heavy feeling of amusement around the room just adding to the already high level of amusement in the room. "I don't it's not mine...I...I know not of what you speak" he spoke slipping back into old English. He squared his shoulders arms moving to rest behind his back.
"So Eddie weddie you got a taste for schlong?" Emmett questioned moving from the floor to take the spot on the couch Edward had abandoned. Jasper sat up moving to sit cross-legged on the floor he turned his body to face Edward. Alice and Rosalie both released a few snickers before being shushed by a smiling Esme. Carlisle face held a small frown debating the question on whether or no Edward was gay. Not that he cared he would love his adopted child regardless. Carlisle pondered the thought for a while before shaking his head it would make sense and explain a lot of things that had taken place in the past when he first turned Edward. "I'm not gay, though" Edward responded as he pushed out his chest a bit and flexed his arms trying to appear bigger and tougher. Swatting at Edward with her hand Bella offered and an encouraging smile. "stop that but seriously it would be okay if you were" She took a step closer to him her hand sliding down his arm to grasp his wrist in her hands. "Remember Max and Gavin?" she asked glancing at the other before her gaze returned to Edward. "you could talk to them" She offered.
"Oh, Eric and Gavin those boys are lovely" Esme spoke brightly smiling those were vampires that Bella had met in Port Angeles while shopping at Barns and Nobles one day they had become fast friends over a sale on collectors editions of Jane Austin. Esme liked them because they both were house renovators and worked construction which worked for Esme because it gave her people to discuss reservations and decorations with. "There cool they can take a punch" Emmett commented nodding his head in agreement with Esme. Snapping out of his thoughts Carlisle tuned back into the conversation going on around him "We should invite them over tomorrow" Carlisle spoke looking to his wife for encouragement in a way he felt uncertain worried that if his "first born' was gay has he been hiding it all this time because of something they had done. Feeling the uncertainty coming from both of his pseudo parents he sent out two small doses of encouragement there way.
"HA! I knew I was right" Rosalie shouted suddenly drawing the attention of the room to her everyone gave her a questioning look. Rosalie had loosened up greatly in the last year and a half was no long that much of an ice queen or royal bitch as some called her. "I knew you were gay and had a thing for my Emmett, always wanting to hunt with just him" Rosalie stood up from the couch hands resting on her hips she sounded very much like a lawyer who had just made the winning statement in a court case. "What? No! Besides, if I was gay, which I'm not saying I am Emmett's, not my type if I were to have a type that is" Edward exclaimed staring back at his sister Rosalie with a put off expression. "besides a lot of people watch gay porn and are not gay and I'm not gay." Edward spoke as he turned his attentions back to Bella. "That's very true you don't have to be gay to watch gay porn but Edward you...there was a video." Bella voice had started off strong but had ended on a soft note a hint of warning and hesitation in her voice.
Rosalie not liking being ignored Bella's statement and brought up the topic of Emmett. "Why's Emmett, not your type? What's wrong with him? he's a catch, my catch but a catch." Rosalie questioned him her tone now gaining a defensive edge to it. Moving forward she moved to stand by Emmett. Shaking his head at her actions Edward moved to sit in the desk chair that sat by the small desk that was randomly in the room Esme had been doing through weird rearranging of furniture phase again. "He's too hyper sometimes and too big not that there's anything wrong with that I just prefer a guy with the same body type as myself, besides there's nothing wrong with him, he's fine," Edward stated waving his hand dismissively at Rosalie. Crossing one leg over the other Edward regarded the others in the room with a duh sort of look.
"so dear brother of mine" Alice started standing from the couch and making her way over to stand in front of Edward "you have a type now?" she questioned her tone light and questioning. "Same body type as you not big like Emmett," she asked parroting his words back to him. She regarded him with calculating eyes as she moved to lean against the back of the couch. Jasper during all this had moved from the floor to take his wife Alice's forgotten seat, the gaming system has long been forgotten on the floor. "You do know that we would all love you regardless if you were or not and if you are you didn't have to hide it all these years and I hope it was none of our actions that made you feel like you had to hide." Carlisle's voice started suddenly cutting off anything anyone else was going to say next. His voice had rung out loud and strong but the others in the room quickly murmured words of agreements.
Edward sputtered briefly before standing pushing the chair back as he stood it rocked against the wall a little but no one really paid no mind to it. "No, no no...no one made me uncomfortable or made me feel like I had to hide." He denied quickly silencing his family members loud thoughts of doubt. He had gotten better at not being invasive and reading his family's thoughts without their permission but sometimes it was hard when their thoughts were basically shouting at him to be heard. Esme stood and moved from around the couch to stand by her son pulling him into a quick motherly hug. "Oh, sweetheart" She spoke softly her one coming up to brush a stray bit of brown hair back from his forehead "Is there someone special? It's truly okay" her hand slid down from his brown hair to softly caress his right cheek before resting there, her other hand coming to rest on his left arm.
"Why are we talking about this? Edward, we all second what your mom said...for now we'll leave it be" Carlisle asked running a hand through his short blond locks making them look slightly disheveled. "So Eddie weddie about that question too dick or not to dick that is the question" Emmett joked his tone full of curiosity and teasing completely by passing Carlisle suggestion of leaving it be. Edward puffed out an amused breath of laughter at his brother's antics he never was one to give up on certain questions till he gained an answer, he was always curious in that way. "I have never slept with a gay...I mean guy! I mean guy!" Edward exclaimed quickly fixing his mistake, looking around at the others in the room in shock. Bella hesitated only a mere moment before speaking "Then how come last when everyone had gone out hunting I came home and walked in on you fucking Mike Newton doggy style on the bathroom floor?" Everyone breathed out shocked gasp once again breathing had become more of a habit even though they didn't need to. "It wasn't me" Jasper whispered in the background all though everyone could hear him clear as day.
