So, some of you guys asked for an EPOV; I was actually going to do one anyways, but a little bit later on. So, since you asked, and I respect your guys' opinions, I'm going to do one now. It may not be as long as other chapters since I'm right in the midst of my finals, but I want to give you guys a glimpse inside the guys' heads.

EPOV

I was currently sitting on a private jet flying with my two best buds Emmett and Jasper. We were flying back to our hometown of Forks, well actually we were flying to Seattle…but we would be driving to Forks. We had a two-week break from playing. We had fill-ins. They let us off because we had been playing non-stop for four years, and thought we needed this break.

It wasn't just about what they thought we should do though; we screwed up. Big time. We gave up on the girls we loved. I thought I loved Bella, but then we went to Boston. It seemed all reason left once we went to our first club. Forks is definitely sheltered compared to Boston. Getting my first lap dance brought me over the edge. Not just I, but Em and Jazz too, got carried away in the scene, and the girls we loved were slowly pushed into the back of our heads. We broke it off with them over the phone after not talking for a few weeks. I know it wasn't the best way, but I wanted to be free and I knew I wasn't going to be taking a trip out to Forks anytime soon anyways. It never registered in our juvenile brains that we would be hurting them; in fact, I think we had convinced ourselves that they would be waiting for us when we were ready to settle down. Idiots.

If we weren't playing baseball, we were clubbing. We met Maria, Tanya, and Kate at one of our games. They were the winners of some contest to meet us. I'd be lying if I said I wasn't attracted to Tanya because I was. I was blind though. All I saw were her plump, bouncy tits, full lips, and curvy body. She was nothing but a nice piece of cake in my mind, at first. We brought them out to a club after meeting them. We hooked up with them that night. It wasn't long before I asked her out, and we began dating. Jazz and Em began dating Maria and Kate as well. I was blinded by my lust. I started calling it love; I even thought of marriage at one point.

I remember when Emmett and I brought our girls home to meet everyone. It was our first time back since we had graduated, and somewhere in me I missed it. I began showing her off; I was very proud of her then. I was in for a surprise when my parents looked at Tanya and Kate with disapproval. I was pissed that they thought my Tanya was trash. When Em and I found Alice punching Tanya and calling her and Kate "sluts," we lost it; we left her balling that night.

When we got back to our hotel, Tanya and Kate went off about how bitchy and stupid Alice was. Emmett and I did nothing but nod our heads. That was the night that I began to rethink my lifestyle and my choice over the past years. It began to register what I did to Alice, and I immediately regretted it. When I talked to Emmett later, he said he did too. That was his sister and my cousin whom we had always stuck up for, and we had become the bad guys. Tanya made me realize how badly I had messed up with Bella. The longer I was with Tanya, the more I missed my Bella. I began to realize what a stupid mistake not just I, but we all made by leaving them. We should have put in the effort when it counted. I didn't even know what college they went to or anything.

After we got news of Maria's cheating scandal, it wasn't long before we broke it off with all three of them. It was the last slap to the cheek to make us realize how far from love we were with them. It made us realize that we didn't like what we had become while dating them. Even before we had started with them, we didn't like ourselves. Point blank: we didn't like what we'd become. I wasn't a manwhore, but that's how I was coming across nowadays. Bella must think terribly of me. She must hate me, but I knew I had to get her back.

That's where we are today. We were going home to win back our girls; we knew it was going to be hard. We had to do it though. I just hope that I will be able to be patient with her, but seeing her after all these years, I think I will struggle with that. I know I'm not the only one who is dying to see Bella. Jasper has missed his sisters so much. He hates himself even more than Em and I do for what he did to them, and that's a lot because I hate myself quite a lot right now.

"Excuse me? We need you three to sit in the upright position and fasten your seat belts because the plane is going to begin its descent to Seattle." Our stewardess' voice cut through my thoughts.

"Um, alright. Thank you." I answered. All of us got into the right position and buckled our seatbelts.

"Excited Jazz?" I smirked to an anxious Jasper.

"Shut up, and yes, I am. I want to see my sisters and Ally again."

"I miss Rosey." Em decided to throw that in.

"I think we all know that Em. I miss Bells."

"I think we all know that Edward." Jazz said, mocking me. I rolled my eyes.

Once the plane had descended, we gathered our luggage, found our car, and began the drive to Forks. After about an hour and a half, we were pulling up at Jasper's massive house.

After we tipped the driver, we brought our luggage up the step and rang the bell. We were here unannounced, but we were pretty sure we'd be welcome. Esme was like that.

We heard some shuffling and a faint, "Just a minute!"

Suddenly a beautiful Esme opened the door. She took one look at us before her eyes widened dramatically.

"Hey Mama…" Jasper started, but didn't get to finish because he was suddenly wrapped in Esme's arms. She was practically choking him with her death grip.

"Jasper Ryan Hale, don't you ever do that to your mama again, do ya hear?"

"Yes ma'am."

"I missed you sweet boy. Call your mama more. She wants to know how her lil' boy is doin'."

"I missed you too, and yes I definitely will." She smiled before turning to us.

"Well hello you two. Your mothers have been wonderin' where you've been at too. I should give all three of you a whippin' for not comin' to Christmas or Thanksgivin' for three years in a row! That's just a crime."

I chuckled, "No need for that; we will be at both this year."

"You boys better. Well, anyhow give your auntie Esme some hugs."

She took us into her arms in the same vice grip as she did with Jasper. I've always loved Esme; she was the typical southern mother.

"Alright, well you boys must be starvin', I've got roast beef and mashed potatoes ready." She turned swiftly and began walking towards their huge kitchen. She also is an amazing cook. I'm slightly envious of Jasper that he got to grow up to this.

My mouth began to water at the amazing smell that filled the house. Emmett started running to the table. He sat down and watched Esme pull the roast out of the oven with greedy eyes. The minute she set it down on the table, the three of us launched for it.

She laughed before saying, "Don't be pigs. Jasper, remember your manners."

He nodded before taking his fork and politely taking some of the roast. I followed his lead, but Emmett just stuck his knife in and just cut a humongous chunk out of it. She put down some garlic, mashed potatoes, and we had that too.

We ate every single part of that meal. She laughed at us as she cleaned our plates.

I noticed that the house was quite silent for two girls living in it. I mean of course they would be in college, but it was summer break and should be home.

Jasper must've figured this out too because he asked, "Mama, where are Rose and Bells?"

She looked at him with a shocked and horror stricken face. I began to worry that something awful happened.

"Jasper Hale! You shouldn't even be askin' me that. What kind of question is that? You should know where they are!" We all looked blankly at her. She sighed before continuing, "They are in New York City."

"Why are they there? It's summer break." I asked. I was really disappointed. They were closer than we thought. We flew all the way out here only to find out that they weren't even here.

"For their jobs."

"Jobs? Don't they have school?" Em asked.

"Online schooling."

"What? What have they been doing the past few years?" Jasper practically yelled.

"Good Lord. I would've at least thought you boys would've seen the billboards and magazines. They are Angels." They're dead? Oh no. My Bella. Esme must've noticed our distraught faces because she said, "No, they aren't dead; they are Angels as in Victoria's Secret Angels."

I think my jaw fell off my face; that's how far it dropped. Jasper and Emmett looked exactly how I imagined myself looking.

"They m-model u-u-underwear?" Jasper asked, stunned.

"Yes."

"Why did you let them expose themselves like that?" Jasper yelled.

"Don't talk to me like that Jasper Ryan Hale, and your father and I were skeptical of it at first, but Rose, Bella, and Alice proved to be very talented. It has been nothin' but good for those girls. They are finally confident in themselves and love bein' able to be role models for girls all over the world. I'm very proud of those girls, especially my beautiful babies. Actually, your father and I are leaving, Jasper, for New York City tomorrow mornin' 'cause we are flyin' out to see them in their biggest fashion show of the year. If you can get extra tickets, you boys are welcome to come."

I immediately pulled out my iPhone and booked us tickets on the flight to JFK for the next morning. Of course we were going.

"Well that was fast. Carlisle will be home soon, so make yourselves at home. Jasper, you sleep in your old room. Emmett and Edward can sleep in Bella and Rose's rooms." I was leaping at the thought of sleeping in Bella's room.

We spent the rest of the night playing x-box, swimming, and talking with Carlisle before we went to bed. I hadn't been in Bella's room for years. When I turned on the lights, it was apparent it hadn't been used in a very long time. I looked at the sting purple panels framing the walls and her bed. Her bedspread was white and fluffy. There was a purple flower drawn on the front. She had her desk and huge closet that connected with Roses' across from her bed. I quickly changed and used her bathroom to brush my teeth. I made my self comfortable as I fell asleep, breathing in Bella's faint scent still left on the sheets.

It was now 7:00 and time for the show to start. We had arrived at JFK 3 hours ago. We drove to our hotel, checked in, and freshened up before driving here for the show. The lights dimmed and suddenly the speakers boomed, "Welcome to the 2010 Victoria's Secret Fashion Show. We will be showing designs for the upcoming year. Now please welcome our musical guest, Black Eyed Peas!" "Boom Boom Pow" began to play. After a few beats, the first two models stepped out. I think my heart stopped as I took in whom the girls were. Bella looked amazing in her turquoise ensemble. Her natural breasts bounced playfully and her hips swayed gently as she walked. She had her plump lips pulled into a sexy smirk as she walked to meet her sister at the point of the runway. When she danced with Will, I practically died of jealousy. I wanted to be him so bad right then. Once they finally got to the front, they posed together. I took this chance to look at Rose. She looked beautiful too, but I only had eyes for Bella. How did I ever leave this girl? It wasn't just the lust. She looked beautiful. Once she was in front of me, I couldn't take my eyes away from her own. Those chocolate pools shined with adrenaline and excitement as she took in the cheers of everyone around her. My heart sunk as she and Rose turned to leave the runway.

All the models looked very good. Alice, of course, also looked amazing, but I was counting down the seconds until Bella made an appearance again. Finally, she showed up again during the "Secret Forest" set. She looked beautifully graceful in her flower-wrapped outfit. Those wings were magnificent. She was so beautiful. I had already crossed my legs, trying to hide the prominent bulge in my jeans. I was a guy at a lingerie fashion show with the girl of my dreams standing in front of me barely wearing anything; my situation wasn't a surprise. Jasper and Emmett seemed to be dealing with the same problem I was.

Once Bella made it to the front of the stage. She posed, but I noticed her eyes roaming the audience. She looked in our direction, but her eyes stopped on me. They widened with shock and a little bit of fear? Why was she afraid? She kept her smirk on though, but I knew her. She was flipping out. She quickly turned once she was done posing, and quickened her pace as she walked off the stage.

Rose came on next. She shook her hips in her leaf outfit, but she seemed to be looking for something when she got to the front. She looked in our direction, and again, her eyes widened once she saw us. She had practically the same reaction as Bella except her eyes held anger. I knew that Bella probably told her and Alice, once she got off the stage, so I was expecting the two girls to see us. Rose finished posing and slightly stormed off the stage.

A few more girls came on before Alice. I was taken a back by her outfit. Were those live birds? Knowing Alice, she was having a panic attack. I chuckled silently. Em and Jazz smiled knowingly. When she saw us, she seemed anxious. When she hurried off the stage, I wonder if it had more to do with us or the birds? I'm betting on both.

Models breezed by until finally, Rose and Bella stepped out again in diamond-covered ensembles. Emmett and I both sucked in breaths as they made their way down the runway. They looked even more sexy and captivating than before. Once they started their poses, Em and I were squirming in our seats. They were doing this on purpose. Those little devils. They turned back, walking with a bit more shake in the hips than necessary. All for our benefit, I'm guessing.

All three girls came back out with the rest of the models for the finale. They all started shaking their hips and playfully dancing to the current song. They waved to the audience, as they made their way backstage again.

"Thank you for coming to our fashion show. We hope to see you again soon!"

"Come on boys, we gotta get over to the afterparty!" Esme said, excitedly.

"You have tickets?" I inquired.

"Of course! Those are my babies up there!"

On our way out, we were stopped by people who wanted autographs and pictures We didn't mind, of course, it came with the job. We finally made it to the car and drove to the party.

We, guys, went over to the bar and ordered drinks. Esme and Carlisle went over to sit at a table to wait for the girls to come in. After about forty-five minutes, they walked in. Rose and Bella actually walked right by us, but they were so busy running to their parents that they didn't notice. Alice walked to the other side of the bar and began ordering drinks.

We faintly heard the girls and their parents' discussion.

"Oh my girls!" Esme exclaimed as Bella and Rose gave her a big hug.

"You gals were gorgeous up there. My babies were so grown up. Let me look at you." They stepped back with huge smiles and holding hands as they complied with their mama's wishes. "My babies are beautiful, young ladies. Come here." Esme was crying softly as she pulled her daughters into her arms again.

"May I see my daughters?" Carlisle said, and Bella and Rose immediately attacked him. "Your mother's right you two are so beautiful. It was a sight to see you onstage." They smiled at him.

"Thank you daddy." They said at the same time and then broke out in giggles. They definitely are twins.

"Alright, we're gonna go dance...We're gonna have dinner with you guys tomorrow right?" Rose asked.

"Wouldn't miss it for the world baby." Esme kissed both of our foreheads before Alice interrupted.

"BELLA, ROSE! STRAWBERRY MARGHERITA AND PINA COLATA RIGHT!" Bella and Rose looked slightly frustrated, but made their way towards Alice anyways.

"Yes, Ally." Rose answered Alice, once they reached her.

I instantly reacted and made our presence known. "It's on us," I said. She stilled turned around to face me slowly.

"Uh, no thanks. We got this. We have been taking care of ourselves for four years," Bella snapped as she and Rose set up a tab. I was taken a back by Bella's feistiness. She was never this bold a few years ago. I've missed so much. Her comment also stung; I knew what she was referring to. I really messed up. How could I have done that to someone I love so much? I was now beginning to see the extent that we heard them.

"You guys were great up there. Esme was right. You guys are beautiful ladies."

"Thank you Emmett, but now if you will excuse us we are going to hit the dance floor." Rose said, pulling Alice and Bella with her. I stared after her with longing, and found myself following them, but Jazz stopped me.

"Not yet, Edward."

My mouth started watering, and the problem in my pants got worse as I saw my Bella begin to grind with her sister and my cousin. Rosalie was whisked away by some guy, eventually. I growled when I saw some greasy, haired dweeb begin to dance with Bella. She really gave it to that guy; I wanted to be him. I turned away for a few minutes to order another drink, but I noticed then that Bella was gone. I frantically searched for her, but I had no luck. I heard some screaming from outside, suddenly. Jazz, Em, and I ran out there to see the freak trying to take off her dress. I immediately ran over and threw him off her. I began to beat the hell out of the guy before Jasper held me back. Emmett went over and finished him off.

Once I saw that Emmett had gotten rid of him, I turned back to Bella to see her with Rose and Alice. When did they get here?

"Bella, are you okay?" I asked. I had to know.

"I'm fine. Uh, thanks."

"It's never a problem." There was an awkward silence.

"Well, we are gonna head out. See you in three years!" Alice said, and they started walking through the alley to our car. That stung; we deserved it though.

I was going to stop them, but Jasper beat me to it, "Wait! We need to talk about this."

"Why would you want to talk to bitches like us?" Rose snapped. I looked over to Jasper, and he looked like someone had hit him in the gut.

"You guys aren't bitches. I was stupid for ever saying that. Really stupid. Beyond stupid."

"Yeah, you got that right." Bella mumbled.

"Please, Rosey. Can we talk about all of this?" Emmett looked at Rose and used his "cute face." I don't see what's so cute about it; It looks like he is constipated or something.

Rose was about to agree, but I saw Bella about to stop her, so I tried, "Bella?" She stared me in the eyes. "Please?"

Finally, she sighed, and I knew I had won. "Fine, but not now. Tomorrow. Zoo at Central Park. 11 o' clock." We would definitely be there. They walked back to their car, and we went back to tell Carlisle and Esme what had happened. They nodded, and we headed back to our hotel.

The next morning, we got up at 10 AM, ate breakfast, changed, and left. We got to the zoo at 10:55. We sat on a bench in front of the zoo, waiting for them to show up. Finally at 11:08, they made an appearance. Most likely Alice made them late.

"11:08…tsk tsk…did Alice have something to do with this?" I joked, as they approached.

"Uh. Shut up…I couldn't decide between boots or pumps." Alice answered.

"Oh, it's such a hard decision."

"You are in no position to cross me, boy. You are the one begging to talk to me." That shut me up; the damn pixie had a point. Rose and Bella smirked.

"So, um…" Emmett began.

"Let's go see the animals!" Rose interrupted. I was a little shocked that we were actually going to see the animals. I had assumed we would just be meeting here, and then going off to talk…guess not.

Rose and Bella linked arms as they started walking towards the ticket booth. Alice had stopped behind them because she was fishing through her purse for her phone, which had started ringing a few seconds before. We followed behind the twins.

"Um, excuse me mister?" Bella said. The boy in the booth looked to be about 19. He was texting someone.

"Uh, hold on…How may I-I hhelp yo-you?" He obviously saw them half way through his line. He stared at them with his eyes trained on their chests. I silently growled. He has no business looking there.

"Six adult tickets please darlin'." Rose said, using her Texan accent. Bella just stood there smiling sweetly.

"Uh, no p-problem. 48 dollars please?"

"Of course. Anything for you darlin'." Bella answered this time as she handed him a 50 dollar bill. That girl was killing me. The boy in the booth visibly gulped.

"Here you g-go ladies. Um, do you want to uh go out s-some time. You are very uh ho-beautiful." He asked, handing us our tickets. Emmett and I growled. Bella smirked.

"You sure are awfully sweet. Give us your number, and we will call you if we have time. Bein' an angel can get awfully busy." He nodded and gave us his number. Rose put it in her purse, and the girls walked away, leaving us to follow. Alice ran up to them.

"Girls, that was Trish. We have a shoot tomorrow at 4 AM. It's a bikini one." I saw Bella groan.

"This sucks. We are gonna have to make dinner a lil' short with mom and dad Bells, so we can go to bed."

"No mean to interrupt, but we should probably get movin'." Jasper said.

"Oh right. Sorry." Emmett and I were still grumbling to ourselves about what had happened with that lousy booth kid.

After we had seen the big cats and the polar bears, I finally got the guts and asked, "Can we please talk now. No more procrastination."

Alice answered me, "Fine." We led them over to an open table. It was silent for a moment before Jasper started. I knew he wanted to get this off his chest.

"Rose and Bells, you guys are my baby sisters; I love you very much, and unfortunately I haven't been treatin' you very well lately. The minute those words came out of my mouth, I instantly wanted to take 'em back. I didn't mean it. I don't even know why I said it; I didn't like Maria very much. I hope you can forgive me 'cause I care about you girls very much, and I want to be there, uh if you'll let me."

Rose and Bella were in tears by the time he finished his speech. Bella ran around the bench and practically attacked him. Rose was on top of them in a moment too. I felt jealous of Jazz for a few moments. I wanted Bella's arms to be wrapped around me, while I soothed her. I would have to win back that right though.

"Jazzy, I missed you too. So did Bells." Rose sobbed. At this, Jasper tightened his arms around them and smoothed out their hair. "It's not easy for young gals to go too long without their older brother."

Instead of watching them for any longer, Em and I turned to a pouting Alice.

"Ally, we are really sorry. We shouldn't have yelled at you. You were right; those girls were sluts, and we weren't smart enough to figure it out on our own. We should've taken your side. We are sorry excuses for family. I hope you can forgive us." I said.

"Ally you're the best sister ever, and the things I said to you were unfair. I didn't mean a single word. I hope you can forgive me." He moved over next to her. She didn't move at first, but after a few moments she threw herself on Emmett. She sobbed into his chest. I felt a little awkward just because I didn't have a sister to comfort, but I got over it. I felt Bella glaring at my side, but I decided not to address it.

Once Alice pulled herself together enough to continue the discussion, the hard part of the discussion, Jasper suggested, "Maybe we should talk about this separately?" Rose and Bella instantly tightened their grip on him. He felt the change in their grip because he said, "I know; I don't wanna lose you gals again either, but I think this has to be spoken about with the prospective couples." Bella took a deep breath. Rose got up first.

"You're right Jazz. Always was, always will be…smartass." She snickered, "Come on Emmett, let's get a move on." Em eagerly followed her.

"Bella…"

"Jazz…" Bella answered, though it came out muffled because she had her head buried into his side. She was so cute.

"Come on…I know you're scared." Scared? I wasn't going to do anything Bells.

"I ain't scared," She mumbled.

"Mhmm…Bells I know you. You're scared of bein' let down again. That's not gonna happen. Give him a chance." Never. Bella. I will never do that to you again. I wish I could tell her these things myself.

She groaned and took her head out of his side. "Smart ass…" she said, agreeing with Rose, "Let's go." She said; she didn't wait for me. She started walking towards where they kept the birds. I followed behind her silently. She went over to a bench near some parrots and slouched down with a "huff."

I wasn't sure how to start, so I awkwardly said, "Um. Hey." She scoffed.

"Hey yourself."

"Okay, probably not the best way to start this, not that there really is a great way…"

"I'm not sure what you want me to say Edward."

"I don't want you to say anything."

"Kay…?"

I sighed and ran his hands through my hair. "I'm sorry. I am so sorry. Sorry doesn't even begin to describe how terribly awful I feel."

She closed her eyes. "Honestly, Edward, I don't really wanna hear 'sorry;' it doesn't really help anythin'."

"I know…I messed up big time. I let my career get ahead of me."

"You just followed your passion."

"But that's just it Bella, yes I have a passion for baseball; I mean I love it. I do need it in my life, but you are my passion. It's like life isn't fun unless you're in it, and it took me until I saw you on Saturday to realize that."

"So basically, you need sex, and seein' me Saturday all dressed up in lingerie made you realize you missed me? How 'bout if you came back to the same girl you left? Huh? Probably wouldn't have missed me so much then." No. No. Bella. No.

"Bella, you misunderstood. I mean yes, you looked amazing in what you were wearing, but I honestly couldn't take my eyes off your face. Those eyes draw me in every time. They engulf me Bella. You're so beautiful, but that's not what I miss. Sure, it's a plus. Bella, I miss you. I miss your laugh, you accent, you selflessness, your blush, your humor…I could go on and on. I love you. I never stopped."

She stared at me, shocked.

"If you loved me, excuse me love me, then why did you give up? Why didn't you make as big of an effort as I did?" She said softly. She had a point.

"This is where I just want to hit myself because I was so stupid. Bella, we were three young boys thrown into one of the biggest cities in the continental US. Even though this is no excuse, but we were full of life and testosterone…"

"Oh yes, you had needs right, and your girlfriend wasn't there to satisfy them." I sneered.

"No! Can you stop making this about sex, please?"

"Whatever."

"Bella, yes okay, it had a little to do with the sex part of it, but that wasn't all. I guess we just wanted freedom, and we felt like we could have it because we were alone there. Practices were also very time consuming. Once we broke it off, yes, I did start dating pretty quickly, but it never felt right. I was terribly upset when we decided to end it, but I guess I dealt with things by letting myself go. It took me a few years to mature, to figure out how terribly idiotic and stupid I was. Letting you go was probably the worst mistake of my life."

She just looked at me. She seemed to be organizing her thoughts.

"This is unfair. I can't blame you for all of this; it's partly my fault."

"Bella! No, it isn't! How is it in anyway your fault?" So selfless…

"I shoulda tried harder or somethin'. I could've flown out I guess."

"Bella, you tried very hard; it was me not trying. I was being a stupid, immature boy. We let you three down. We stopped talking to you, which was inexcusable. I only learned two days ago that you were an angel. That's pathetic. We used to be so close, and us, guys, let it go."

"You got that right; I still think I coulda tried harder. There are two people in a relationship."

"Exactly there are two people in a relationship. I was not fulfilling my part. Can we please try again? I love you. Can we get past this and go back to how things were?"

"I'm not ready for that. I barely know you anymore; you barely know me! I've been keeping up to date with you through tabloids; you didn't even know what I did for a profession. We need to get ta know each other again. I'm still hurt by you Edward. I don't trust you yet. Anyways, remember we live in two different cities. I travel a lot. We have apartments in San Francisco, LA, New York, Paris, Milan, and London. There's a lot of promotin' we have to do. For example, in just three weeks, Alice, Rose, and I are leavin' to go on a promotional tour through Europe and part of Asia. We will be gone for almost a month or so. If we get back together, how can I trust you to not give up on me then? I'm not ready for this yet. I forgive you, Edward, I do, but that doesn't mean I want to be with you again yet. I can't…"

Stupid. Stupid. Stupid. Why did I say that! I knew we couldn't. She was right. I ran my hands through my hair. I just made things worse in my attempt to make things better. How much more idiotic could I get? It broke my heart hearing her say those words… I cried into my hands before wiping my eyes and glumly making my way back to Jasper. He was hugging Alice before saying goodbye. She ran off. Lucky bastard. He made up with all three of them in like twenty minutes. The guy has a way with words.

I noticed Emmett coming the other way looking completely depressed. His conversation probably didn't go well either.

Jasper stormed up to us. "WHAT DID YOU TWO DO THAT MADE ONE OF MY SISTERS STORM OUT OF HERE AND THE OTHER RUNNING OUT CRYING!"

I sighed and told my story, and Emmett told us. Wow, he may be even more idiotic than me. After hearing what we had to say, Jasper was surprisingly calm.

"Well I think you guys know what you did wrong, but honestly, my sisters are dealin' with this a bit immaturely. I'm not sayin' what you two did is okay; it's not. It's just that my sisters could be handlin' this better. I'm gonna talk with them."

I was surprised about Jazz's reaction, but decided not to question. Better this, than furious Jazz. Jasper went out to dinner with Bella and Rose that night, while Em and I just hung out at the hotel. The next day we just toured New York and hung out at the pool. We wanted to go see the girls, but we remembered they had an all day shoot.

We figured that they'd be back by at least 4. So, we went over to their apartment at 5. Jazz knew where it was because he went back there to talk to Alice and Rose last night. When we got there, we knocked, but there was no answer. We could hear them talking about some guy though. We tested the door and found that it was open, so we walked in.

"Who's hot? Me?" Emmett joked. He's going to get them pissed at us. The three of them turned their heads to us in surprise.

"What are you three doin' here, and how did you get in?" Rose asked. Alice just squealed and ran over to Jasper. He eagerly opened his arms for her. Bella looked anywhere but me. She finally decided to stare at her hands.

"We wanted to see you three before we had to leave. We said we were going to make the effort."

"You still haven't answered my question: How did you get in here?"

"Oh well, you left the door open. We knocked, but no one answered. We knew you guys were here though; we heard you talking." Bella rolled my eyes.

"So, can we stay and hang out?" Em asked. I stayed quiet; I didn't want to say something that would get her even madder at me. I felt really guilty about yesterday.

"Jasper can." Jazz smiled at Rose and Bella before giving a sympathetic look us. He's just way too good with them. I was crushed; I just wanted Bella to forgive me.

"Please Rosey?"

"No."

"Please Rosey baby with a cherry on top?"

"No." She looked away now to avoid his "cute face", which he was now restoring to. Desperate much? I shouldn't be talking…

"Bella?" I tried; I desperately resorted to my crooked smile, which apparently "dazzled" her before. I know it was mean, but…

"Uh um well, uh…okay?" She said quietly. I went to sit in the armchair. I noticed Jazz go and sit in between Rose and Bella. I was jealous of that bastard. So jealous…

"Jazz, moments like these make me realize how much I missed you."

He smiled. "I missed you guys too." He kissed the tops of their heads. So jealous…

"Ya know, I've been meanin' to talk about this with Rose, but since you're here, I'll tell you too. I think we should take a trip back to Texas. I think we all really need it." Bella said.

Jazz seemed to think about it before smiling widely and Rosalie was already squealing in a very un-Rose like manner.

"Yes! Bella, that's a great idea! When can we do it? Maybe before the tour?" What tour?

"Yeah? But, Jazz has to be free. We can talk about it later, though. I just wanted to bring it up before I forgot."

Rose nodded, and they turned back to the screen.

"Hey Ally, what's up?" I looked at Alice in surprise at Bella's comment.

"Huh?" She said, coming out of her thoughts.

"What's got you so upset, hun?" Her accent was way more apparent, probably because of Jasper.

"Uh, it's stupid."

"I'm sure it ain't stupid."

"I don't know; I guess I just kind of want to come but I don't want to intrude on your family bonding." I did too…

"Oh Ally, of course you can come!" Rose said.

"No, really, I don't want to impose."

"You wouldn't be imposin'!" Bella said.

"Yeah, ever heard of 'Southern Hospitality'?" Rose said.

"Jazz?"

"Are you really askin' me of all people? Of course you can come!" She smiled really big.

"This calls for a shopping trip! Ohhh, maybe I'll pick up an accent like you guys!" We laughed.

"Maybe…" Bella said. I was glaring at the screen, but when I felt her eyes on me I looked over to her. She looked back at me. She gasped, but didn't look away. Good sign. She seemed to be fighting with something. I decided to chance it, and I scooted over to her. I was close enough to where our knees were touching. When she pulled away, I went closer. She finally climbed into Jasper's lap. Damn. She didn't want me to be near her. I'm stupid. No more impulsive moves.

She suddenly got off Jasper's lap. She looked at Rose and Jazz who nodded with understanding. I will never understand their communication.

"I'm goin' to use the ladies' room." She mumbled quietly before practically sprinting upstairs. I wasn't stupid; I knew she wasn't going to come back down. She wanted and felt like she needed to get away from me.

After about an hour, the boys and I decided to head out. I said I was going to go to the bathroom, but instead I went into a room that I presumed was Bella's. I saw her asleep in the middle of a huge, fluffy bed. I walked over to her, and I just couldn't resist: I pressed my lips down on to her nice, full ones. "Sleep my beautiful Bella. I'll always wait for you," I said, meaning every word.

On our taxi ride home, I thought to myself. I will get her to trust me again. I will. I will. I will. I love you Bella.
