Chapter 4- Matt's back
Previously;
'Edward, you get the door, see if you can read their minds' Carlisle said as he wrapped his arm around Esme's waist.
I nodded my head and made my way towards the door, the scent hit me all at once, it was the same one I smelled the night before, it was almost exactly like Bella's yet there was something different about it, I opened the door, completely shocked when I saw who was on the other side of it.
'Bella' I whispered loud enough for every one of my family members to hear and loud enough for Bella, the human, to hear.
She looked up completely composed 'Edward' she said when she looked into my eyes.
Bella POV
I walked down the stairs and out the door and made my way to my neighbour's house, I wasn't very nervous but it was like there was some sort of pull that made me want to run towards the house, it was the strange feeling in the pit of my stomach again. I knocked on the door; I looked down to access if I still looked presentable, after a few minutes the door opened.
'Bella' I heard the voice of my angel whisper.
I looked up thinking it was just my imagination 'Edward' I whispered back completely shocked to find the love of my life standing right in front of me.
'BELAAAAAA!' I heard someone yell, I look over Edwards shoulder to find Alice charging towards me. 'Ohmygodimissedyousomuchpleaseforgivemeididntwanttoleavebutedwardmademe' she said whilst hugging me so tight, I thought she was gonna break a bone.
'Alice!' I yelled 'Still human here, can't breathe' I said as loud as possible, she lessened her grip 'good now repeat what you said' I said 'at human speed' I interrupted her before she could even start again.
'Oh my god I missed you so much. Please forgive me, I didn't want to leave but Edward made me' she said at a normal pace.
I was about to reply but stopped when I saw a black Mercedes driving up the street towards my house, I slowly walked away from the Cullen's, down the path of their front garden, I could feel them all following me.
The Mercedes stopped in front of my house, I could feel my heartbeat quicken in anticipation, which meant the Cullen's heard it quicken. The first thing I saw coming out of the car were a pair of legs that had black skinny jeans on and black and red Jays, IT WAS MATT! He was finally home. I couldn't help it anymore I squealed like the girl I am and ran towards him, he smiled at me and opened his arms I jumped into them without any hesitation.
'I missed you so much!' I exclaimed unable to contain the excitement and sheer happiness that was probably radiating off of me in waves.
Matt chuckled 'I missed you too beautiful' he replied as he planted a kiss on my cheek.
I went in for another hug and he picked me up and twirled me around which made me laugh.
'Next time you decide to travel half way across the world, you should at least tell me when you are coming back and how long you plan on staying away!' I glared at him
He paled knowing I was mean when I was mad 'Hey! You know I never know how long I am going to be gone' he said trying to make an excuse for himself.
I smiled, so happy that he is back 'my god I missed you' I said again as I hugged him closer to me. He smiled back and chuckled again, his gaze went over my shoulder and froze. I turn back and see one pissed off Cullen family.
'Oh! Forgot to mention, we have new neighbours!' I tried to put as much enthusiasm as I can in my voice but Matt knew me too well. He gave me the 'tell me now or I will pull it out of you' look. I returned the look with my own 'tell you later' one. He nodded, indicating that he got the message and walked over to introduce himself.
'Hello, I am Mathew but you can call me Matt' he said as he stretched his free hand out to shake Carlisle's, his other hand wrapped around my waist in his protective brother way. I rolled my eyes when his arm tightened around my waist.
'Carlisle, it's a pleasure to meet you' Cullen replied politely 'this is my wife Esme, my daughters Rosalie and Alice, and my sons Emmett, Jasper, and Edward' Carlisle pointed to each one of them as he said their names.
Matt froze when he said the last person, I winced when I realised he recognised them.
'What was your last name again?' he asked, his voice getting rougher and rougher.
'Cullen, why do you ask?' Edward spat out, I can tell this isn't going to end well.
Matt looked at me with pure fury burning in his eyes 'its them isn't it' he said, I could hear the anger, so heavily in his voice, the vain in his neck was beginning to bulge out, which meant he was about to snap. I nodded my head but then turned to whisper in his ear, even though I knew they could hear me, but the truth is, I knew this was annoying the hell out of Edward because he doesn't know Matt was my brother, that is what made this all more fun, I want him to suffer just as much as I did.
'Matt, you need to calm down, trust me. If you snap you will hurt yourself more than you will hurt them' I whispered into his ear, he took one deep breath and calmed down, the main indicator of his anger seeping away was the fact that the vain was no longer bulging out.
Matt stepped in front of me and spoke slowly 'I don't want you anywhere near her, do you understand me?' he said menacingly, he looked straight at Edward as he said this.
'You don't control her, she can see me if she wants to' Edward replied fists clenched, he looked so good, it was terrible that I can't get over the fact that he looked like he could be a damn super model.
I put my hand on Matt's shoulder 'Matt' I got no reply 'Matt' he still didn't budge 'MATHEW JACE' I yelled, I didn't want to say the last name just yet, I still had some fun to play with Edwards mind. Matt turned to me when he heard his full name; he knows I only use it when I am super mad.
'Fine, you deal with them, I will be back, I need to put my stuff inside' he replied as he made his way to the house.
'You better not eat my brownies again!' I yelled after him trying to cheer him up, he turned around and smirked at me, it still made my heart quicken every time he did that, not the way Edward's does, but because he is beautiful and related to me.
'I promise, not after last time anyways' he said and shivered at the fact that I kept putting stuff in his food and messing with his cooking stuff like switching the salt with the sugar and the flower with washing powder 'I won't be able to last as long as I did last time' he shook his head and continued walking to the house.
'And you better not make a mess!' I yelled after him 'It took me ages to clean up what you did last time!' I laughed as he turned around and stuck his tongue out at me.
'Love you!' he yelled
'Love you more' I yelled back. He made his way into the house, I chuckled thinking of what happened the last time he went into the kitchen trying to make cake, the man can cook but he can't bake to save his life. Someone cleared their throats which effectively got me out of my trip down memory lane.
I looked up to see all the Cullen's staring at me.
'What?' I asked looking down at myself to see if I have anything on me, my shirt lifted up over my waist when Matt removed his arm revealing the tattoo I got there. It was the word "forever" written in cursive; I pulled my shirt down and looked up again.
There was an awkward silence, that didn't last long because of my bear of a brother.
'BELLSY! I missed you, it was so boring without you there doing your weird human things' Emmett exclaimed as he gave me one of his legendary bear hugs.
I couldn't help but laugh 'Emmett, I missed you too' I said laughing so much, I could barely breathe.
'Bells, you sure do look good' he said moving his eyes down my body. I laughed more at the hit across the back of the head he got from Rose.
'Ow! Rosie that hurt, you know it's true' he said rubbing his head.
'I don't think you can get hurt Em' I said shaking my head and chuckling.
The Cullen's all smiled at us, I hugged each and every one of them, except for Edward, and I just pretended he wasn't there, just like he pretended he loved me.
'I wish I could stay and talk but it's getting late and I have to make sure Matt doesn't burn the house down, plus Gucci and Louis Vuitton get their new collection tomorrow, so I have got to go and get me some of that' I explained my voice getting exited towards the end.
'I'm sorry, could you please repeat that, I think I went into some sort of other dimension where Bella was excited about going shopping' Alice said blinking rapidly to over exaggerate her point further.
I laughed 'Nope, after going shopping with Matt once, I realised it was super fun' I smirked and looked at Emmett and winked the continued 'so I love it now' I shrugged my shoulders.
Emmett burst out laughing 'I like this version of you Bella, but it would be better if you still blushed after everything you said' he laughed harder
'Sorry to disappoint you Em, but I haven't blushed since I met Matt, and gained the confident, cocky Bella' I winked at him and turned to Alice and Rose
'Would you two like to come with me?' I asked them.
'Of course, we would love to' they replied at the same time. We all burst out laughing, but stopped as soon as I head Matt yell
'Isabella Marie Swan, what did you do to the room?' I smiled menacingly at the Cullen's, and then slowly turned to face Matt.
'That's what you get for not telling me when you were coming back!' I yelled back.
'Ugh! How long do I have to hold out this time?' He exclaimed talking about how long it would take for his furniture to come back.
'A month' I sang to him, he shook his head and went back into his room
'Ouch! Bella a month is a long time' Emmett said with an evil smile
'Good' I replied 'it should teach him a lesson or two' I continued
'I hate it when Rosie makes me hold out for that long, but it is really fun when the month is over' Emmett said with his 100 watt smile.
I froze as I realised how Matt and I just had a conversation with the worst double meaning ever.
Welcome home Matt, your neighbours think you are having sex with your sister.
