Chapter 4
"Edward what where you and Bella talking about," my mother Esme asked. She has aged well, you would never know she was old enough to have an eighteen year-old son. She is 35 and looks as if she is 28, my father is the same way. Carilse is 34 a few months younger than her and yet they love each other, he only looks 29. They joke about that she is older and looks younger, while he is younger and looks older.
"I was talking about helping her with Hope," I tell her.
"Oh, her daughter I wish I could meet her. Bella is a sweet girl, I still can't get over the fact that she got drunk and got pregnet. I just hope that the girl that you slept with did not and if she did when you find her you better make it right," she said, yes, she knows about that and I am shocked that she knew of Hope.
"How did you know of Hope? I just found out since she is coming up here for Bella to take care of now in four days. Also I am starting to wounder if Bella was the girl. I mean I can only remember brown eyes, Bella has brown eyes. I am thinking that she could be her, that and the fact that Hope has our green eyes," I tell her. I got my green eyes from my mother after all. My hair is like her father and my name sake, Edward Masen. I only got my fathers crooked smile or in my case smirk. Carisle Cullen towns best docter and one of the best in the country and we live in this small town. With his blond hair and blue eyes all the female nurses love him and hate that he will never cheat on my mother.
"I was the one that helped her when she had to tell her mother, her father was in shock and she had not known I was there at the time. I heard about her having a little girl, have yet to see any picturs yet and I want some. If she is that girl then you will need to help with her big time young man," she tells me.
"I know and I will even if she is not, Bella needs help and I want to help her," I tell her.
"Ah, young love, such a beautiful thing and lead to a happy life if it is shared and is from both sides," she said as she smiled at me and came to give me a hug.
"I even know that the guy she was with had green eyes, so I told her that I would pay for the DNA test for myself to see if I am him," I told her, there is no secrets in this family and I need to get the money from her anyway.
"Good, in a way I hope young Hope is yours for I have wanted grandkids for a while now and now you are eighteen you can give me them even if it is only a stepgrand kid, you got that Edward," she said as she started to head to the firebox the we keep a good bit of money in for not all of our money ends in the bank, my parents do not trust the bank.
"So, when is Hope going to be here?" she asked.
"In four days. So, as sone as I can I want to have the test done. I want to know if Bella was in fact the girl that I was with," I tell her.
"Know this if she is you know I expect you to put a ring on her finger. As soon as you can," she said as she pulled out the money for the test and a ring box. I have always wanted to use my grandmothers ring for when I get married, it is simple and yet a beauty to see.
"I know just give me some time to get her use to the ideal of me being around to help with Hope. It would also help if we where dateing as well. I will ask her out if Hope is mine if not at least in the month," I tell her.
"Oh, givening up on the girl at the party? Why is that?" she asked, she knows that I wanted to find the girl I was with just so that I would be able to say that I had only been with one girl, if I ever had a son to keep him under control and out of trouble.
~THE NEXT DAY~
The alarm on my phone was not what woke me up tody but a phone call from Tanya asking me to come over to night for her parents are out of town and she wants some one to stay with her. I told her that I had to work with Bella on something and would not be going to stay at her house ever nor was I ever going to. I told her that I had my eye on someone and if this girl that I thought was the girl I was with when I was drunk is not her then I would ask out the girl that I had wanted to ask out for some time now, I even told her that the girl I tought was the girl I slept with was also the one I wanted to ask out. So no matter what the out come I would be dateing someone within the month and it was not her nor will it ever be her. I got a call from Bella two minutes latter telling me next time I turn Tanya down make sure it is after 6:30 in the morning so that she would not have to wake up early.
I arived at the school house in time to see Emmett, Bella's older brother, pull up, I still have no clue as to why Bella just does not ride with him to school and not have to deal with Rose and Alice in the mornings. Jasper pulls in as well and I have to say for such a calm guy it is hard to see him with someone like Alice but when they are next to each other it seems like it is ment to be.
"Here Eddie what you thinking of," Em said, he knows I hate nicknames so that is why he calls me them.
"Just thinking, Em would you kill me if I was to say that after all this time I am starting to remember some more of that girl I was with and she reminds me of Bella? Also I know of the little bit that is coming in a few days," I tell him.
"If you are him then I would at least know who to pound if you do not step up man. If you know of Hope then you know that a test must by done right, how are your rents going to handle this," he asked.
"They know, and yes I will pay for the test myself, and I will step up. I had just about given up finding that girl and even if Bella is not her then I still will help Bella, I am sure you heard of what I told Tanya today," I tell him, Jasper is just siting there with a look on his face that tells me he knew of Hope as well.
"Yeah, so Bella is the girl that you where talking about then Bells just told Tanya that next time she calls at 6 in the morning a tape of Tanya giving a teach a blow job even though he kept trying to get her to stop will end up at the school bord as well as many other tapes that will end her career as a modle befor it even takes off," Em told me.
"Wow, remind me never to wake Bella up then. I do not wish to have to run for my life," I tell him, I had heard that Bella does not like wakeing up but to say that to Tanya is something, oh no.
"Em, how much dirt does Tanya have on Bella?" I ask, Jasper has the same look on his face as me, meaning he knows what I am thinking.
"Just Hope all the other stuff Bells has done everyone knows of," Em said.
"Shit, Tanya would not tell anyone would she?" I ask even though I know that she would. This is going to be a long day.
"Shit," Em and Jasper said at the same time they know it to Bella is going to be so upset today, I just hope Rose and Alice can help her.
"We best warn the girls," I say, as Jasper sends a text to someone, "texting Alice?" I ask.
"Yeah, we need to warn them you are right and they are bringing some things against Tanya for if she does something," he said as he read a text.
"This day is just going crazy and school has not even started for the day yet," Em said, for once he is right.
"Your right look at Tanya, I think that she has more things up her sleeve than we know," I say as I see Tanya strut up to the school doors not even looking our way.
"Edward does she have anything on you, she has nothing on Em and little that would get me in trouble with any one other than my parents," Jasper said.
"No, other than what people know for I have no secrets my parents know everything and I mean everything about me," I tell him, that was a day come home from a party and have your mother ask 'who was the girl you have sex with Edward'. I still can't figer out how she knew.
"Even about the drunk sex?" Em asked.
"Yeah, my mother asked me as I walked in the door who the girl was that I had sex with, I can't see how she knew," I tell him.
"Wow, that is not something I would want my rents to know," Em said, yeah Cheif would skin you if you can home like that and Rennee would cry and cry over her little boy.
"How did they take Bella?" I ask.
"Oh, Dad was in shock and even had her take five test and he had Rose stand in the bathroom and watch her pee on them. Mom was yelling at her and crying saying she has ruined her life and all that. That is why she is sending Hope up here, she does not want to have to raise her and Bells wanted to keep her here but knew that she would not be able to take care of her at that time," Em said.
"So, Bella wanted to have her here? If she had been then maybe we would have found her father by now. I kind of want to end up that guy just so that Hope know her father and since I have wanted to ask Bella out for some time only I didn't for I wanted to try and find that girl I had been with. If Bella is her then not only do I find the girl but can hopefuly end up with her as well," I tell them. We are standing out in the parking lot waiting for the girls to arive, we do not know what Tanya is doing and I am a littled worried about what she might do.
"So wait if Hope is yours you want to help take care of her? I always thought that most guys well other than me and Jaz did not want to have kids yet, we just don't have them for we know that it would be hard to take care of them right now," Em said.
"That and the fact that Rose and Ali do not want kids yet they saw how hard it is to give birth when Bella gave birth and was there for a few days after Hope came home and well they are not ready for kids," Jaz said.
"Yeah, I always wanted a big family, a lovening wife, maybe a dog or cat, and a nice house. Sure I wanted them after collage but if Bella is that girl and Hope is mine then I will have at least part of it now," I tell them.
"And what parts are you talking about," Em asked.
"Well if she is then Mom will want me to have a ring on her finger at least in a year, so that way she knows I am helping with the child, hell she wants me to have a ring on a finger within two years anyway for she wants grandkids now while she is still young. So do not be suprised if Hope is not mine that Esme makes sure that I spend as much time with Bella and Hope that I become a servent of little bit. Ready to do what ever she wants me to do and get her whatever she wants. She looks so much like Bella anyway that it would not take long at all," I tell them.
"So, even if Hope is not yours Esme wants grandkids and you will end up with Bella to give her one," Em said it as if I am using Bella.
"It is not like that Em, I had made up my mind a few days ago that if I did not find that girl by the end of the month then I was finaly going to ask Bella out. I had been wanting to ask her since I moved here, but did not for I had thought that the girl I had been with would be easy to find and I needed to see if she was prego with my kid or not, as seeing as the condom broke," I tell him.
"Well how could it be Bella you where not even here when that party happened," Em said.
"Yes, I was. I had been here for two weeks befor my transcrips arrived to let me go to school. I had ran into Tanya on the fourth and she invited me to her party that would happen the on the fith, that was in September two years ago, that was also the same party that Bella got drunk at and had that one night stand, and so did I," I tell him.
"So you realy could be Hope's father, pay for the rush testing to get it back sooner that with regaler testing," Jaz said as the girls pull up.
Alice got out first wearing as her norm some very high heels, but she is 4' 11" and Jaz is 6' 3" so she kind of has to. Rose got out and as the norm for her she looks more ready for a fashion show than school. Bella is not in her norm of tee shrits and jeans, but in what she is fource to wear to school by Ali and Rose, a pair of skin tight jeans, a navy blue top, that looks like the one that the girl had on the night of the party, and a pair of navy blue flats. Ali and Rose know that Bella and hells do not go well. I rarely ever see Bella with make up on and to see her with it on now makes me see that her eyes are just beautiful and such a deep dark brown that they look like chocolate.
"So, Tanya is in a rage over Bella yelling at her and Edward turning her down. I think it is time we get rid of her and make sure she knows that she is not one of the hottest girls in the school. Bella is far better looking than her and I want to prove it, I know Tanya and she is going to have pictures up in the school sometime this week to try and show everyone that Bella or Edward are not as inacent as the look so you two be ready for pictures that have your faces added on to the body of some random porn star and not the good looking ones," Ali said.
"She will have them having sex to so you to need to be ready for that and she might even have your phone numbers under them with some message saying call for a good time or something along those lines," Rose said.
"I know all this and when she does then the school web site will have a few new vidios up, I know how to hack the site and put them up and I can do so from any computer, such as the labtop she left at my house and then said she never wanted back just leave it where the teachers can find it after I do that and no trace back to me," Bella said.
"Want she know that you used it?" I ask.
"Yes, but who would belive her? I am a straight A student and the only thing I did not tell the students is I have a daughter, the teachers know about her. So, they would belive me over her as long as all of you back me up," she said.
"I know I will," Rose said.
"You are my little sis after all! I was starting to fear that you weren't I mean you are so sweet and never do anything in the lines of pranks," Em said.
"I will as well I just hope that it goes over as you plan," Jaz said.
"I will and she is not believed by the teachers anyway after the vidios on the site she would be out of this school so fast that she would never be aboul to show her face here ever again," Ali said.
"Well I am in for I know she is bound to do something," I said.
"There is the bell we need to go in now,"Bells said with a grin I think she is already planing the hack.
