D/C I don't own Twilight. But we all know who does!!!
Bella POV:
Some girls think they have the perfect life. I Know I do. Anything I could have ever wanted just handed to me, no questions asked. I have more than enough money, wonderful family, friends I've had since birth, and not to mention the man of my dreams that happens to be my fiancé. My life is perfect…..perfect until he walked into my life.
Two weeks ago is when all this started…..
I was walking down the stairs in my tiny white robe. Walking into the kitchen where Gloria was preparing breakfast for my family.
I sat down at the table and she poured my juice and handed it to me. I kissed her on the cheek. Gloria has been working for my family since before I was born. She practically raised my brother and I, my second mother I call her sometimes.
"Bella, what are you doing walking around downstairs in that tiny thing?" She scolded me. I thought I looked quite cute in this.
"Alice and Rose are coming over to lay out by the pool today." I took another drink of my juice and snagged a piece of bacon off the platter.
"You and the girls should go to the country club today. Those people should be here to work on the house and you don't need to be here in your bathing suit." She was so old fashion. I was good at ignoring people beneath me. Except her and Nathan, our grounds keeper, they were like family.
"I still can't believe Dad hired someone to redo the outside of our house with the wedding being in three weeks, and to top it off they are leaving today for a mini vacation for two of those three." I huffed.
"Young lady that mini vacation you are talking about happens to be them going to your grandmothers to prepare your wedding. You didn't want to go with them. The wedding won't even be at this house so quit whining." She sat my plate down in front of me. Gloria was the only one that got away with talking to me like that. No one else dared.
Mom and Dad came into the dining room and sat down. "Good morning Bella" Dad said
"Good morning. What time are you two leaving?" I asked, noticing the note pad mom had beside her. My mom had everything listed that needed to be done before the wedding took place.
"After breakfast, we have so much to do. I sure wish you would come with us." Mom looked at me while sipping her coffee.
"I know but I don't want to be stressed before my big day. Besides I have to pack for my honeymoon." I smiled. My poor dad, he cringed when he thought of our honeymoon. That was to be the night he loses his sweet little girl to my husband. Little did he know, I lost my virginity last year, but that's a little secret.
"Well Gloria and Nathan will be here to handle the guys that are coming to work on the house. There should be no reason to talk to you. I wish you would stay with Alice or Rosalie till they are finished." Dad seemed concerned.
"Don't worry. Like you said Gloria and Nathan will be here. I won't be alone. Plus they will be done with their job before they leave to meet you at grandmothers." I heard Alice's perky voice and I got up from the table.
In walked Rose and Alice my best friends since birth and the bride's maids. "Good morning Mr. and Mrs. Swan. " They said together.
They chatted for a bit while I ran upstairs to my room to grab my sunglasses and towel. I heard a noise outside. I walked over to my window and there were four men getting out of a big truck. The biggest one stood there with his hands on his hips looking over the front of the house. His eyes glanced over my window but then returned to stare.
He was built like my brother, Emmett, but had dark tanned skin and long black hair pulled back from his face. He smiled at me and I jumped back from the window. Get a grip bells, they are beneath you.
I composed myself and walked downstairs and towards the back of the house. I walked past the dining room. "Girls are you ready? And Dad there are some men outside." He got up from the table and we walked out to the pool.
The sun was hot already. I took off my robe and walked over to the diving board. I sat down on it waiting for Rose to come out of the pool house with her suit on.
"I still can't believe in three weeks you will be Mrs. Isabella Cullen, my sister!" Alice squealed. I let my head fall back to soak up some sun.
"Me either, I was sure you and Jasper would have gotten married first. Hell even Rose and my brother, but I guess Edward is ready for us to start our life together." I sighed.
Rose came walking out tying her top. "Your brother won't ever marry me. He's scared ."
We laughed as mom and dad came out to tell us they were leaving and that the guys will be starting on the front of the house. I gave them kisses and thanked them for doing this for me, well Edward and I.
The girls and I played in the pool and soaked up as much sun as we could. We talked about the wedding, honeymoon, and no nonsense stuff.
I grabbed my robe "I will go check on lunch. Be right back." I made my way back up to the house.
In the kitchen Gloria was cutting up lettuce for our salads. She was mumbling to herself. "Gloria, can I help with anything?"
She shook her head no at me "No I was waiting on Nathan to get back so I can go check the mail."
"I can go do it." I sat walking out of the kitchen. She was trailing right behind me.
"No you won't Isabella Swan! There are strange men out there and you don't need to be subjected to them." She had her hand on her hips. I smiled.
"I'm a big girl and you know me well enough to know I can ignore people. Don't worry five minutes that's it. Set the timer." I walked around her and she shook her head and walked back towards the kitchen.
"Five minutes, then I'm coming out with your dad's pistol."
I opened the front door and they weren't even working on the house. They were sitting by one of our big oak trees eating lunch.
I started walking down the driveway, looking straight ahead making sure they knew I was ignoring them.
I heard whispers and laughs coming from them but I guess they were doing their own thing. I made it to the end of the drive and got the mail. I turned to make my way back up the drive.
I was scanning through the mail to see what all we got when I could hear their conversation as I got closer.
"Yeah she's the daughter. Princess grew up quite nice. Wonder what's under that little robe of hers?" One said. I couldn't help it.
I stopped and faced them. "Excuse me? My father does not pay you to sit here and make rude comments about his daughter." I was angry.
"Yep she might have grown up but her attitude is still the same." This came from the big guy.
"You don't know me." I stood there completely aware that I was talking to this big, dirty, sweaty man.
"My father works in your dad's steel mill. It's kinda hard not knowing who you are." He laughed. His eyes were dark and he was actually bigger than Emmett.
"I'm sorry you are? No wait, never mind I don't need to know." I turned to walk back towards the house. I got to the front step and grabbed the door knob when he yelled.
"Hey princess the names Jacob." He laughed.
I shut the door, only to be greeted by a short woman tapping her foot. "Six minutes." Was all she said.
"Sorry it took an extra minute." I smiled sweetly at her, handing her the mail.
"Did they bother you? I will call your father and have them removed off the property." She followed me through the house.
"No, not at all. I was looking at the mail and slowed my pace that's all. You treat me like I should be under lock and key." I said looking at the tray of food on the counter.
"You should be. If your father knew about you and Edward, I would be preparing your meals at the convent." She stood straight, point for her.
I turned to look at her. She was waiting on me to try to lie to her about this. "I don't know what you are talking about." I said puffing out my bottom lip.
"I know you better than your parents. And if you want it to stay that way I suggest you to never lie to me again." Her finger was pointed at me.
I sighed."Fine. Yes Edward and I have had sex. Only a few times, I promise." God knows I wasn't lying about that. "Can we please have lunch now?"
She rolled her eyes and grabbed the tray. I followed her outside to the patio table. "I didn't need the details just no lying." She said in a low voice so Alice and Rose couldn't hear, like they didn't already know.
"Well Gloria if you want details…." I laughed when she cut me off.
"A lady does not talk about such things." She popped me on top of my head before walking back into the house.
"What was that about?" Rose asked, sitting down to eat.
"Mine and Edwards nonexistent sex life." I held up fingers giving the quotation marks gesture.
"But you and Edward do have sex." Alice said, looking odd at me.
"Since that first time last year it has been three more times." They stared at me like I grew four heads and breath fire. "He wants to wait till after we are married."
"Poor girl" they both said at the same time followed by a laugh.
After lunch we played by the pool for a little while longer and then they had to leave. I walked them out to Alice's car and I told them I would call them later.
Rose looked over at the guys working on the house. "Who are they?"
I quickly looked over and they were close enough to hear our conversation. "Oh nobody important, just some guys doing their job. Good , the sooner they finish the sooner they can leave. " I caught a glance from Jacob. At least that's what I think he yelled his name. I don't care.
"Yeah, that guy does a lot of work for the people around here. He built the guest house on Mrs. Werner's property last year. " Leave it to Alice to know everything.
They left and I headed back towards the door. The guys were putting their stuff into the back of the truck.
Jacob turned to smile at me. "Good night princess, see you tomorrow."
