"EDWARD ANTHONY CULLEN, DO NOT EVEN THINK ABOUT GOING IN THAT LIVING ROOM GET YOUR BACKSIDE IN HERE NOW!"
I'm not sure how my mom managed it but she always knew exactly where we were. Especially if we were trying to avoid her, which considering she wanted to talk to me and Alice had said she was pissed I wanted to do. I walked into the kitchen and I could tell just from the look on her face that Alice hadn't been wrong about her being angry.
"Close the door and sit down."
I couldn't think what I'd done but my mom only makes us sit at the table for dinner or if she wanted a serious talk. I can tell you know it wasn't anywhere near a meal time.
"Edward, I know you are an adult now and I can't tell you what to do but I have to tell you that your father and I are more disappointed with you today then we have ever been in our lives."
"Mom, what are you on about?"
It was then that she stood up from the kitchen table and walked over to pull a bag out of the kitchen cupboard under the sink. I held my breath as she came back to the table, removed the items from the bag and place all of the discarded clothes from last night in front of me. On top of the pile was a pair of white lace boy shorts. Bella's white lace boy shorts. I fumbled for the words to explain what had happened, a lie was on the tip of my tongue when my mom cut me off.
"You know how your father and I feel about Jessica, but we can't tell you who you can and cannot see. What we ask is that while you live under our roof if you are going to bring her back her you at least have a little bit of respect for us. We don't want to hear you having sex like we had to this morning, we don't want to find our belongings knocked over at the top of the stairs, we don't want to find a trail of your clothing leading to your bedroom and we definitely do not want to find her underwear hanging from our bedroom door handle again. Do I make myself clear? You're are not a bad kid Edward but your messing up your life with this sleeping around, I want to be a Grandma but I want you to have a child with someone you love not someone your just using for sex and I'm afraid the way you're going it is going to be the latter."
I couldn't find myself to be bothered about the last words my mom said to me if I had my way the only children I would have involved in my life would be nieces and nephews and even then I didn't want to spend too much time with them. The only thing I could think about and be grateful about was the fact that my mom had jumped to the same conclusion as Alice and thought my conquest last night was Jessica. If she was disappointed with me over that, I'm a hundred and ten she would disown me if she knew it was Bella. My mom loved her like a daughter, so for her to know I'd used Bella last night, it would have broken her heart and as much of a dick that I am I didn't want to break her heart.
"I'm sorry Mom; I promise it won't happen again."
With that she kissed me on the head and told me to get the hell out of her kitchen. Just as I was about to leave I heard Alice call out from the front door that she leaving to go back to college. We both left to say our quick goodbyes to her as it would be a couple of months till we got to see her again. Mom asked where Bella was – something I was curious about myself – as normally Alice and Bella would normally cry for 10 minutes as they said goodbye to each other. Apparently she'd already taken off for her morning run and had only said a quick goodbye. I don't know how she managed to do it as she'd drunk more than I had, yet she was out running and all I wanted to do was go back to bed to sleep.
"Edward, can I talk to you quickly?"
"Sure, Ali."
We walked over to the side while mom, Em and Rose pretended not to be listening.
"First off why did you lie about it being Jessica in your bathroom this morning?"
Shit had Bella dropped me in it, surely she wouldn't do that.
"Look I don't care who it was but I'd rather not have to listen to you shagging some random girls brains out and then have you lie about who it is. We all know you're a man-whore you don't need to lie about who you're screwing we know you frequently have one night stands. Enough about that though, what I really wanted to know is what the fuck have you done to upset Bella?"
"What? Ali, I've done nothing we went to bed…I mean she went to bed last night and she was fine."
Deny…deny…deny…that is my motto in life and I'd deny having done anything to upset Bella, especially to my sister.
"I don't know what it is, but please sort it out before I come back in a few months. She's my best friend and I love her to pieces. So you listen to me Jackass, fix it or I will kill you."
"Fine Ali, I'll work out what I've done and fix it."
I held up my hands in defeat, my sister is tiny but you don't take any of her threats lightly. We hugged goodbye and then she was gone with me assuring her I'd keep my promise and fix whatever was wrong. I kind of guessed that may be easier said than done, if she was as pissed over something as Ali said she was.
As soon as Ali left I retreated back to my bedroom. It wasn't even 10 O'clock and I'd already managed to make two of the most important people in my life angry with me. I decided just to get back into bed until Bella got back from her run and then I'd stick to my promise I'd made with Ali, trying to fix whatever had upset her. Obviously as I couldn't talk to her until she got home I decided to just sleep off my hangover.
I was woken up what only seemed a few minutes later by Rose calling after Bella and Bella walking away from her. I turned over and looked at the clock and three hours had passed since I had laid my head down. I heard someone else – I could only imagine it was Rose – stomp pass my room and decided there was no way I was going to get to go back to sleep if her and Bella were going to start arguing or whatever so I got up and went down to the living room.
I went in and sat down on the sofa opposite Em who looked like shit, he was watching the stairs and his face was full of worry.
"Hey Em, so what's up with those two now?"
"Fuck knows man. When we left to take Ali to the airport she was sitting where Charlie had been killed. We left her as Ali said she'd seemed off this morning and Rose said maybe she just needed some time to sort through whatever was going on in her head, but as we came back she was still sitting there. She was fucking soaked to the bone; I wouldn't be surprised if she gets fucking sick from sitting out there for so long, she didn't look good at all when we pulled up next to her. Rose was just saying that it has been nearly a year since Charlie died, it must be hard for her." Emmett walked over to the Xbox and threw me a controller. "Game of Halo?"
Thank god for Em, he was so easily distracted. He could go from being worried one minute to being his jolly self. I wish it was that easy for me sometimes, I couldn't help wondering what Bella was just about to spill to Rose. I agreed to the game hoping it would prove a distraction for me, but it didn't and Emmett was officially owning my ass. All I could think about was how I hoped that Bella didn't think we were in a relationship now I'd slept with her. I mean I liked her than any other girl I'd slept with, heck she was probably my only friend who was a girl and was one of my best friends, which is probably what made last night so easy and mind blowing, but I'm not a relationship type of guy.
The one relationship I'd had at the age of eighteen, I'd fucked up badly and I knew then that I was never going to enter into another relationship until I was like sixty and found it hard to get pussy from different women so had to get married just so I had it on tap. So I definitely wasn't getting into a relationship with Bella as I'd miss our friendship the minute I fucked up the relationship part. Like I said earlier though we could fuck when either of us wanted to, I had no problem with entering into a friend with benefits type of relationship with her.
"So Rose and I heard you last night. New girl I take it? Sounded like she was lots of fun. Never heard Jessica scream like that as you made her cum. So come on give me the details I want to know about the hot piece of ass you got last night. Do I know her, the voice sounded kind of familiar?"
"Em, shut up man you really don't need the details."
"Oh come on Eddie, when have you never not liked to share. Come on, I'm almost a married man I need to know a few details from my man-whore of a brother."
We both shut up and we heard people coming down the stairs. I looked over at Em as we heard the girls by the front door. We stood up and walked quietly over to the living room door and spied on them. Bella had a bag on her back and was hugging Rose goodbye, she only went to her house yesterday for fresh clothes so I didn't understand why she was going back again now.
Just as Rose shut the door we ran back and sat on the sofa where Em decided that in the space of five minutes I must have changed my mind and wanted to tell him all the details.
"So come on Ed, give me the details, and tell me who it was at least."
"Yeah come on Ed, you can't be ashamed of who it was you, never are so why don't you tell us."
I hadn't realized Rose had come into the living room; she was standing up against the door frame, but started to walk to behind the sofa I was sitting on.
"Em, you don't want to know. Rose, shut up this is none of your business."
Rose stood behind me and started shifting her weight from one foot to the other. I'm not ashamed to admit Rose scared me slightly so I was nervous. Next thing I knew Rose's hand connected with the back of my head.
"WHAT THE FUCK ROSE!"
"YOU KNOW CULLEN YOU CAN BE SUCH A PRICK SOMETIMES!"
With that she stormed out of the room. That slap there was conformation she knew about me and Bella. Emmett started laughing at me as I rubbed the back of my head. I had laughed so many times when Rose hit him like she had just hit me; still it pissed me off so I threw a pillow at him.
"Hey, I'm just glad it wasn't me getting hit for once. So come on what did you do to piss Rose off?"
"Nothing Em, she must be getting PMT or some bullshit like that."
"Liar you know exactly what you did I can tell from your eyes."
"I didn't do anything; just get back on with the fucking game."
Emmett turned off the Xbox just as I was about to kill him.
"What the hell, Em?"
"You're avoiding something. Rose wouldn't hit you for nothing. Me, yes I'm always getting clipped round the head for shit all the time, but that was a proper fucking hit man; she wouldn't do that for nothing."
"You really don't want or need to know Em. Let's just leave it I'll sort it out with her later."
"Eddie, tell me otherwise I'll get mom in here and make her get you to tell us. Or I'll come over there sit on you and give you a wet willy!"
The threat of him sitting on me – the bloke is built like a brick shit-house I didn't fancy getting squashed – or him getting my mom in here was enough for me to tell him.
"!" I strung all the words together and said them in one breath hoping that Em wouldn't hear and would just give up.
"Eddie, I didn't catch that. What did you do?"
Guess he isn't giving up then, might as well get it over with as it would come out to Em sooner or later.
"First off stop calling me Eddie or Ed and I'll tell you."
"Fine, Edward will you please tell me, and then we can work out how to fix it with Rose."
"You can't overreact Em." He crossed his heart. "It wasn't Jessica or some random chick you heard me with last night. Shit man; just don't hit me when I tell you this. It was Bella; it was her I fucked last night."
I was fully prepared for his fist to connect with me face, so I was fully surprised when he didn't hit me and just shouted at me.
"YOU WHAT!"
"EMMETT, for fucks sake. Shut up! Mom is next door in the kitchen and she'll kill me if she finds out."
"I don't care; I think she should find out. As for her killing you there be a long fucking line because at the moment I want to fucking kill you. I mean come on Edward what the hell were you thinking."
He then moved around to the back of the sofa. Following Rose's lead, he hit me around the back of my head. At least he wasn't punching me in my face; there was still time for that though I guess.
"Ed, you need to stop thinking with your dick and start thinking with your head. You know Bell's has had a crush on you for god knows how long now and she's still so messed up over Charlie's death. She doesn't need you messing with her feelings just so that your little man gets his happy ending."
"Hey there is nothing little about my dick."
"Shut the fuck up! I can't even work out what you were thinking Ed, she's Alice's best friend. She might as well be a member of this family. I love her like a little sister, I honestly thought you felt the same way but obviously that was wrong. I love you because you're my brother, but you know what Rose was right you are a fucking prick."
With that Emmett walked out of the room without saying another word to me. With Rose and him that was now two more people to add to the list of people pissed off with me, it was becoming a long fucking list. Maybe Em with right, maybe I did need to start thinking with something other than me dick, but it was a simpler way to live my life and I didn't feel like changing it anytime soon.
I couldn't deny that Em and Rose were right though, I didn't think about Bella's feelings in all of this; I just wanted to get my dick wet and screw everyone else. She didn't seem to mind though, it seemed like last night scratch an itch for her also. Believe me it was an itch I'd be happy to scratch for her over and over again. What can I say I am a prick…but I get pussy whenever I want it and I'm proud of it.
