Chapter Two: The Deal

(Bella P.O.V)

"We are what?" I whispered. I could feel my eyes widen in shock.

"Just play along," he whispered back. What is he up to?, I thought to myself.

"Really?" Mr. Williams asked. The two gentlemen at the desk exchanged looks. I looked at Edward as if to ask 'really?' too.

"Yes sir. We started dating five months ago, secretly you know. We didn't want our relationship to interfere with our work here at the office," he said looking at me. There were about three emotions taking over my body; Shock, anger, shock. Wait, I said shock already. He has me all discombobulated! He looked at me, and urged me to speak. I hesitated. Did I want to do this? Or should I just walk away? But my job could be on the line... I made a quick decision that I'll play along, and find out what was going on. What were we talking about again? Oh yeah, hiding our 'relationship'.

"W-we sure didn't," I said snapping back into this world instead of my little world.

"Well, congratulations. We had no clue," Mr. Williams said."This is a big surprise,"

"It sure is," I said shooting a look at Edward.

"Yeah, but with your assistant?" Mr. Lodge, Mr. Williams co-partner, asked cocking an eyebrow.

"Well, it's not like it's the first time someone messed around with their assistant, Mr. Lodge," Edward chuckled, and they laughed. I just stood there, nice and quiet.

'What have you gotten yourself into this time, Bella?' I asked myself.

"Well, I wish you two a wonderful wedding, and life together," Mr. Williams said standing and shaking Edward's hand. Then he turned to me, and looked me up and down.

"She truly is a keeper," Mr. Williams said with a smile. And you're truly a CREEPER, I added mentally with a big smile on my face. I never really liked him any way.

"Thank you , sir. She sure is," Edward said. I looked at him with a 'What?' expression written on my face. Mr. Williams then gave me a hug, and wished us off because he had important work to do.

We walked calmly back to Mr. Cullen's office. I tried not to ask any questions while everyone at work was listening, and I didn't want anyone to know that Mr. Cullen said we were engaged. Which we were so not! I don't want to marry him, and that's that.

I closed the doors behind me, and turned to him. He was typing on his laptop, and I do have to admit he is gorgeous. I have to admit I wouldn't mind to have sex with him... STOP THAT, I told myself. That's just ridiculous. I walked over to him, and leaned against his desk.

"Do you mind telling me what is going on? We're engaged? Engaged!? Really? What in the world happened in there!?" I demanded. This was the first time I blew up in front of him, and hopefully it will be the very last. He sighed, and pinch the bridge of his nose which I found quite cute. I shook away the thought.

"Look, in order for me to stay here in New York I have to be married, and you're my only option ," he said.

"Why do you have to be married?" I asked.

"That's none of your business,"

"Look, we're apparently 'engaged'," I said using air quotation marks ," And I need to know what is going on..." he sighed, and looked me in the eyes.

"Well, my Visa expired not to long ago, and I'm apparently here illegally," he said as if he was no big deal. He acted like it happened all the time.

"Illegally!?" I asked. "Did you know you can't fraud a marriage so you can safe your ass, right? That's illegal too,"

"We'll be fine," he said as he began going through files. I put my hands on my hips. He just doesn't understand. No man will ever understand a woman the tiniest bit . I'm so frustrated right now. But mostly I'm frustrated because I didn't walk away. Oh, no. I walked straight into this, and I have no one to blame but myself.

"If we get caught I could go to jail, and you will be sent back off to Britain!" I said. He turned to me, sighing, and rolling his eyes. Oh, real grown up.

"We won't get caught, okay?'' he said. He doesn't even care if I go to jail! I don't want to marry this heartless man.

"Well, what if I don't want to marry you?" I asked.

"And what makes you so sure I want to marry you? Look, once we're married we'll stick it out for a month or two, and then we'll get a quick divorce, and say it didn't work out , and we'll go our separate ways," he said. I shook my head.

"No. No. No," I said. He looked at me with his green eyes.

"Look, Bella, how about we make a deal?" he asked. I just looked at him for a second with curiosity. What was he offering?

"What kind of deal?" I asked. He smiled.

"Well, if you agree to go through with this marriage ordeal I'll help you out with becoming that big time author you want to be," he said with a smile.

"How do I know you'll hold your end?" I asked.

"You can have my word, Bella," he said. "Now. We are off to the Visa area,"

"That's what it's called?" I asked. He shrugged. "Hang on,"

I ran out of his office looking for Angela. Unexpectedly someone pulled me back into one of the office box things.

"What the hell were you thinking?" Angela said as I turned, and looked at her.

"No, you don't understand...'' I said.

"Going off with your boss, and then getting engaged without even telling your best friend?" she gasped. I laughed nervously.

"So what's it like?" she asked.

"What's what like?" I asked, and as soon as I asked I regretted it.

"You know... The s-e-x," she whispered.

"Okay, that's enough," I said walking away. She ran up to me.

"Chill out ,Bells. But I am really hurt that you kept this from me," Angela said. I turned to her. What can I tell her?

"Well, we were just planning on running off together, leaving everything behind, and something came up in Mr. Williams office that we had to come out with our relationship. And I can't explain all the details right now, or what happened in Mr. Williams office," I lied. She looked me up and down.

'Please don't let her figure out I'm lying. Please. Please, I pleaded in my mind. She sighed.

"Well, I guess I'll let it go this time, but when you get pregnant I'm the first to know," she smiled. I once again laughed nervous, and put my legs together.

"Well, I got to go. We...um... have a wedding to plan," I lied again. Then I turned to see Edward standing behind me, and he urged me to come. I nodded.

"And all this time he treated you like a dog, and you loathed him... And it was all an act!" Angela giggled as I joined Edward for our trip to the Visa area ,as he would call it.

~:~

So now we're standing in front of a tall building. Who am I kidding? There are a lot of tall buildings in New York. Well, we're standing in front of a medium sized building. Just standing there looking at it. I look at Edward, and I've seen that look before. That's the look he gave to one of his clients one time. The client who murdered his last lawyer for loosing his flat screen TV in a divorce. That look means Edward is frightened, and I was enjoying the look. It was quite humorous. I patted him on the back, and jumped a bit.

"You're not frightened are you?" I asked with a laugh. He straightens his tie. He regained his posture, and serious type face. I just rolled my eyes.

'What a girl,' I thought.

"Of course not. Why would I be frightened?" he said as we began walking towards the doors.

"Well, you seem kind of , oh I don't know, jumpy," I said shrugging.

"Well, I'm just fine, thank you," he said. "You're so childish,"

"You don't have to be rude. I'm just looking after my fiance," I said with a teasing smile. He just looked at me with a famous Edward Cullen look.

"What ever. Let's just get this over with," he said as we walked up to the counter, and he handed the skinny lady with bouncy blond curls a file. Then it slips from her hands, and falls to the floor.

"Oh, clumsy me," she giggles. I just roll my eyes as she bends over, and Edward leans in looking at her ass. I smack him with my purse.

"What the..." he said rubbing his shoulder.

"I'm sorry, honey. Did I hwurt you?" I asked with puppy eyes. The blond gives me a death look, and I just smile.

"He'll see you now," she said with her eyes narrow, and on me.

"Thank you. Come on, sweet heart." I said the word sarcastically as I pulled Edward to the back room.

"What was that for?"

"Well, if your gonna be my fiance we at least have to make it convincing... Which means no more looking at girls asses, and yes I see you look at girls asses all the time. Don't deny it," I said as we walked into a tiny room in the back labeled MR. ROBIN'S OFFICE. He made a scoffing noise.

"I don't look at girls asses all the time," he said.

"Yes you do. You've look at Macy's, Haley's, Angela's, and the list goes on, and on," I said making a motion with my hand in a circular motion.

"Have I ever looked at your ass?" he asked.

"Not funny," I said.

"Well, have I?" he pushed.

"As far as I know... No," I said. He smiled.

"That bothers you, doesn't it?" he asked. I sighed, and looked at him.

"It doesn't bother me. I bet it bothers you that you don't get a nice little look at my ass" I said.

"Your so right. I just want to look at that juicy bottom," he said sarcastically. My mouth dropped.

"Did you just call me juicy?" I asked. Then my cell phone went off saying I had a text from Angela.

How's it going with Mr. Cullen?... Angela.

He is being a complete sweetheart, Ang... He is just amazing.... I put with a laugh. Right. He's a sweetheart. Just amazing. But I do have to admit I've never seen this side of Edward. I've never seen him be so, so not serious.

"Hello, I'm Mr. Robin... You must be Edward Cullen, and Bella Swan?" he asked taking a seat at his very messy desk. I didn't even see the messy desk until he sat down... Is that a sandwich with mold? Ewww. I think it just moved! I scooted back in my seat.

"Yes, that would be us," Edward said.

"Sooo, you two are getting married? Why?" he asked. My heart stopped. We hadn't came up excuse to our 'engagement'. What do we do?

"Well, sir. Bella has worked for me for three years, and I've found her secretly attractive for quite some time now. And five months ago I got the nerve to ask her out, and she said yes. But we kept our relationship a secret because she was my assistant, and we didn't want anyone thinking that she would get unfair treatment, but until recently we were going to run off together that is until my Visa apparently expired," Edward said at 110 miles per hour. Mr. Robin looked at me.

"Is this true , Bella?" he asked. I just looked at Edward , who gave a smile nod.

"Well, before you answer that you are unaware if this is a fraud marriage to keep Mr. Cullen in the U.S you will go to jail, correct?" he said. My heart once again stopped.

"So if there is anything you want to tell me, anything at all tell me now," he said leaning in as I opened my mouth. Then closed it again. I thought about what I should say. Should I rat him out now, and walk away, or keep the deal, and stay in this room... I opened my mouth to speak.

"I've worked for Edward for three years. We started dating five months ago, and it was indeed a secret. We were going to run off together until his Visa expired," I said looking away, and then back. He sighed, and clicked his pen, and began writing.

"Always the hard way. Well, do your parents know?" he asked us.

"Sir, my parents are dead," Edward said. He looked at me.

"Well, we're actually going to Forks for a week for my brothers birthday. My parents are there as well , and we plan on telling them then," I said.

"Yeah, we're going to Forks,"

"Washington," I said.

"Forks, Washington," he repeated.

"For a week?" he asked. I nodded, and then Edward.

"Well then I will see you next Tuesday for questioning about your relationship, and I hope you know everything little thing about each other, because if you don't you , Bella, are going to jail, and Edward, you're being shipped back to England, okay?" he said with a very creepy smile.

~:~

I pushed through the doors. I tried to get out of that cramped room as fast as I possible could without screaming out in frustration. So I was indeed going to Forks for my big brothers birthday, but my 'fiance' is tagging along.

"Bella, what's the matter with you? Gosh, you could have blown the whole thing back there, acting all guilty like," he said.

"I am guilty! If this goes wrong it's off to jail with me! What will my parents think of me? My entire family?" I asked.

"Well, I'm telling you that I can a sure you nothing it going to go wrong. Have a little faith will you," he said. I sighed.

"You don't understand, Edward. Jail is no place for a person like me. Jail is where people not like me go. I don't belong in jail," I said.

"Bella..."

"No, listen. If you want me to carry this out any longer you go by my rules," I said. He thought it over, and nodded.

"First off, you will listen to me. Basically I'm in charge now. My parents will know we are engaged when I want them to. You can't be an ass-hole at all. We might stay a week, or two weeks if I want-"

"But we have a meeting Tuesday, " I said.

"Don't worry I'll just reschedule like I always do. And you are not to do anything work related while we are away. You are not to use your cell phone. You will hand your cell phone to me for safe keeping,"

"Is that it?" he asked.

"No. Now, ask me to marry you," I said said crossing my arms.

"Will you marry me?" he asked.

"No, get down on one knee," I ordered. No wonder girls are in control in the relationships. It feels good to be the boss for once. He sighed, but got down on one knee.

"Bella, will you marry me?" he asked. I saw him smile, but then it faded as quickly as it came.

"I'm sorry. What was that?" I asked. He took my hand in his hand, and spoke.

"Bella... Sweetheart... Angel... Baby, you are my life, you are my world, will you please, please, please marry me?" he asked with sarcasm in his voice.

"Let me think about it.... Hmmm... Alright, but I don't like the sarcasm in your voice... sweetheart," I said he stood up.


(Edward P.O.V)

"Is that it?" I asked. I was tired of her little game. Telling me all these stupid rule I have to follow in order to stay here. I'd rather go back to Britain, but on the other hand I love my job...

"No. Now, ask me to marry you," she said crossing her arms. I have to admit she is a bit sexy, and I have looked at her butt before, but there is no way in hell I'm in love with her.

"Will you marry me?" I said the words meaningless on purpose.

"No, get down on once knee," she ordered. She is a bit bossy, but that's a bit cute. But it's more annoying then cute. I sighed, but I got on my knee, and looked into her brown eyes. I never realized she had brown eyes.

"Bella, will you marry me?" I repeated.

"I'm sorry, what was that?" she asked. I smiled, but got rid of it before she saw. I took her hand in mine.

"Bella... Sweetheart... Angel... Baby, you are my life, you are my world, will you please, please, please marry me?" I asked putting sarcasm into the words.

"Let me think about it.... Hmmm... Alright, but I don't like the sarcasm in you voice... sweetheart," she said as I stood up.

"So... do we have a deal?" I asked. "I do as you say, and you marry me?"

"I guess so..." she said turning, and walking away. Man, she's a handful.
