The past few weeks have been great. Edward and I have had lunch together every chance we have gotten. On most days he was working at the office and didn't get a chance to get away to go to the diner with me. But at least once a week he was at the construction site, and on those days he made sure that we had lunch together. We had yet to do anything else besides lunch and I wanted to change that. I just had no idea whether or not he would.

It is Saturday and I am waiting on Alice and her boyfriend Jasper to come by and spend some time here with me. We plan on relaxing and watching movies all day. Jasper also planned to pick up a few files from me. You see, Jasper is the psychiatrist that I send most of the women to see when they come to us at the center. As a matter of fact, he is the one that helped Alice. That is how they met and they have been together ever since her treatment ended. They are very good together. Alice is extremely hyper and outgoing and Jasper tends to calm her right down.

Hearing a knock, I get up off of the couch and go and open the door. "Hey Bella," Alice says. She and Jasper make their way into my apartment. He hands me some grocery bags and says, "We come bearing gifts." I smile and look into the bags. There is a variety of chips and dips and veggies and other snacks. That was our deal. I provide the movies and entertainment and they provide the snacks. We planned on going out to dinner later with Rosalie and Emmett so we just planned on snacking until then.

"This all looks great guys," I said putting everything out on the table. "Can I get you guys anything to drink?"

We were now starting our second movie when my cell phone rang. I looked at the screen and noticed it was Edward. I immediately smiled. "Hey there you," I said.

"Hey yourself," he replied, "what are you up to today?"

"Nothing much. Just hanging out and watching some movies. What are you up to?"

"Actually, I have some plans Esme wanted me to show you for the interior design for the shelter. I can just bring them by the office…"

I interrupted him. "Why don't you just bring them by my place now?" He knew where I lived because he refused to let me walk home late one night after leaving the office. Besides, I really wanted to introduce him to my friends, and now would be the perfect time.

"Are you sure Bella? I mean, I can't wait until Monday, if you are busy."

"Edward, I am not too busy. Remember, just hanging out watching movies. So just bring them on over, OK?"

"Ok, I will be there in a few."

The past few weeks have been great. Bella and I have had lunch together every chance we get. We had yet to do anything outside of lunch and I was planning on changing that. I now had the perfect excuse to go by her place. My mom had given me some ideas for the interior of the shelter that she wanted to show Bella. I, of course, offered to show them to her. And she made my day by telling me to stop by her apartment and give them to her. Little did she know, I was already downstairs, outside her apartment building.

After getting off the phone with her, I waited about 5 minutes and headed upstairs. I knocked on her door and waited. The shock must have showed on my face immediately. A guy answered her door. Wait. He looked very familiar and evidently he must know me because he said "Edward Cullen?" I kind of shook my head to take away the shock and looked a little closer at the guy. And then it hit me. "Jasper Whitlock?"

He pulled me into a, what I like to call, man-hug and patted me on the back. I hadn't seen Jasper since before I left for Chicago. We used to hang out all the time, with Emmett of course.

"I had no idea you were back in town, Edward, " he said, as I stepped inside Bella's apartment. She looked a little confused.

"Jasper and I have known each other a while. We hung out together before I moved to Chicago. She nodded her head and smiled. Someone else walked in from the other room and went to Jasper's side. "Edward, I want you to meet my girlfriend Alice." She stuck her hand out for me to shake and I did. She seemed very good for Jasper, although a little hyper. She was practically bouncing on her feet.

"Oh Edward, I have heard so much about you from Emmett and Jasper," she said. I was confused. How did all these people know each other. Bella must have sensed my confusion because she started to speak.

"Alice and I work together at the center. Jasper is the psychiatrist that we send the girls to. Jasper's sister, Rosalie, is Emmett's girlfriend. Oh, Ok. Now it clicked.

"Edward, man, we were all going to go out together, Alice and I, Emmett and Rosalie and Bella, to eat dinner. We would love it if you would join us."

"No, no, I couldn't impose," I said, knowing full well that I was going to ask Bella to go out and do something with me tonight anyway.

"Come on Edward," Bella said, smiling, "you know you wouldn't be imposing. I want you to come."

Now, how could I say no to that.
