I do not claim to own any of the content in the Twilight saga, it belongs to Stephanie Meyer. I don't claim to own any of the content in Charlies Angels either.
Quite a short chapter, but I'm really pleased with it :)
"So, what did Charlie want?" Edward asked.
He was sat on the sofa, Bella tucked under his arm. They had stayed at the Cullen house all day, so that Edward could use the computer for some research. Bella cleared her throat, she hadn't really thought about how to explain her new occupation to Edward. She knew how he could be, and she was sure that he would not approve of this.
"Well, he has a little job for me, Alice, and Rosalie" She started slowly.
"Wait a minute" Edward said, catching her tone. He looked down at Bella, "I'm not going to like this, am I?" He asked.
"Well, no, you're not. But there's no reason for you to feel that way" She replied.
Edward sighed, "Go on. I promise not to over react" He said.
"Don't worry about breaking that; I'm sure you will" Bella pulled away and sat facing Edward instead, "The FBI needs special agents to concur their more dangerous cases. And Charlie figured, since we're near indestructible, that us three would be perfect for the job" Bella decided to keep it short and quick.
No need to give him too much information and make him really explode. Edward was quiet for a minute. And then his lips formed into Bella's favourite crooked smile. She breathed out in relief.
"Charlies Angels" Edward chuckled, tucking a strand of Bella's hair behind her ear.
"You mean you're not mad? You're not going to try and talk me out of it?" Bella gasped.
"No" Edward sighed, "I know how stubborn you are Bella, and you'd just go and do this anyway. Besides, its not as if you'll actually be harmed in anyway" He explained.
"Wow" Bella said quietly. She sat and thought for a minute, "So I can do this?" She said, just to make certain of what Edward was saying.
"Yes. You can" Edward told her simply. She caressed his glorious face in her hands, and kissed his icy lips.
"I'll be safe, I promise you. And I'll be back every night to tell you all about my new kick ass job" She grinned.
"No pun intended?" Edward smiled.
"Ah, so you've told him then?" Alice said, appearing out of no where. Bella noticed that her face looked a little disappointed.
"Yep" Bella turned to face her, "What did Jasper say?" She asked gently.
"He said no. Which, of course, I knew he would" Alice sighed.
"I can talk to him, if you like" Edward offered. Alice was his favourite sister. Possibly his favourite in the coven - apart from Bella and Renesmee, of course.
"I don't want you two bickering" Alice said.
"We won't, I promise" Edward stood up and was out of the room in a flash.
Rosalie arrived a few minutes later, to tell them that Emmett had said yes. He had found the subject quite amusing the whole way through. "And he said he likes the idea of me being in some sort of sexy cat suit" Rosalie rolled her eyes.
Edward returned, looking quite pleased with himself, "I talked him round, Alice. We both agreed that if you come home in perfect condition on your first job, you can carry on with it" He announced. Alice beamed, and clapped her hands.
"Good. Because I won't have a hair out of place" She said. Bella, knowing Alice only too well, knew that the vampire meant it in the most literal way possible.
"Oh, and I saw Carlisle and Esme. Charlie's told them. Esme is ecstatic about it, actually" Edward added.
"She is? Why?" Bella queried. She knew that the loving couple would fully support the girls anyway, but she hadn't expected the word 'estatic' to be thrown into the bunch.
"Apparently you'll be needing a head quarters, and she just can't wait to start decorating" Edward chuckled again.
"And I can't wait to start shopping for us" Alice said, she looked at Rosalie, "The cat suit idea was very good, you know. Very flexible..." She looked off into space, obviously dreaming of her shopping spree. Bella suddenly remembered one detail she hadn't told Edward yet.
"Oh, Edward, there's something else" She said cautiously. Edward looked at her with his liquid topaz eyes, and Bella explained, "Jacob is going to be helping us" She said.
Edward sighed, "Ah well, I suppose everything has its down side" He said.
Bella scowled, "Jake will be brilliant" She snapped.
"I'm guessing you suggested him?" Edward asked. Bella nodded, and he raised an eyebrow, "And why not me?" He said softly. He wasn't mad, but Bella felt guilty anyway.
"I knew Jake would love this sort of thing. He doesn't really get up to much these days" She replied.
"Except for running around the woods as a wolf and looking after our daughter" Edward smirked.
Bella smiled. It was alright, she had his full consent.
Review! :)
