WORRIED

Bella's POV

It's been a week since I found out Edward was a vampire and he wanted me to meet his family. I was in the middle of doing laundry when he had asked me.

"What if they don't like me?" I asked concerned as I gathered up Charlie's clothes from his room.

"Let me get this straight, you're worried not because you'll be in a house full of vampires but because you think they won't like you." He said holding back his laughter.

"Don't laugh!" I said slapping his arm.

"Bella, I would never dream of it." He said as he tucked my hair behind my ear.

I blushed and turned to the washer and made myself busy loading clothes into it, "I see the way Rosalie looks at me, and you can't tell me that she doesn't hate me."

"Well she doesn't exactly hate you, but your right she's not keen on the idea of you." He said as he turned me around to face him. "But she will behave I promise."

Then he kissed me and all my worries went away. Like always he broke the kiss after a few seconds but even after that amount of time I was out of breathe and my heart was racing.

"You know if you keep kissing me like that you're going to make my heart stop." I said breathlessly.

"Nope," He replied popping the P

"So when are you taking me to meet them?" I asked turning to start the washer.

"I was thinking Saturday, in the morning then after I want to take you somewhere." He said running his fingers down my arms, "Just you and me."

"Okay," I paused, "Just so you know though, hanging out with your family is going to give me a complex." With that I closed the washer and went up to my room with him right on my heels.

When I woke up the next morning Edward was kneeling by my bed. I smiled, he had stayed with me. "I take it Embry's here too?" I asked as I sat up running my fingers through my hair.

"He is," He replied nodding his head once

"And you're still not going to tell me why he's here?" I asked looking into his eyes

"No, it's not my place to tell you why." He replied placing a kiss to my palm.

"Well I guess I need to just forget about it and just go and get ready for school." I hopped up and went to my closet.

"I'll be back in 15 minutes to take you to school." And with that he was out my window before I could even acknowledge that he had said anything.

I quickly showered and dressed and I was downstairs eating a pop-tart when there was a knock on the door, "I got it," I called out as I went to answer it.

I opened the door to find not just Edward but Embry as well they seemed to have been glaring at each other. Just then I heard Jen at the top of the stairs, "Fuck me!" she whisper yelled looking down on the scene. She quickly ran down the stairs and grabbed Embry's hand and pulled him up the stairs.

'What the fuck' I thought. I looked at Edward who no longer looked like he was going to kill somebody. He just shrugged and went to sit on the couch.

"I'll be right back I need to get my backpack." I said as I started up the stairs he just nodded.

When I got back down stairs Edward was waiting by the door, keys in hand. When I got into his car I turned to him and asked, "Can you at least tell me why you're so mad?"

"Embry transferred schools." That was all he said he didn't say any more just stared out the windshield as he drove.

I had no idea why but I was tense all through the day till lunch when I was with Edward again, "God do you know how tense I have been all fucking day because I knew you were upset." I said as I plopped down next to him. He had started sitting with me and my friends.

"I'm sorry Bella, I didn't mean to make you upset." He said rubbing my knee.

"Well you got a funny way of showing it!" I said pushing his hand away.

"You should eat maybe you'll feel better after you do." He said as he stood up, "What do you want I'll get it for you?"

"Just lemonade, I'm not really hungry." I replied glaring down at my hands.

He nodded and went to get it for me. While he was gone mike turned to me, "You and Cullen fighting or something?"

"It's none of your business Mike!" I snapped at him

"Well it's just that I don't really like the way he looks at you." He said shrugging, "he looks at you like you're something to eat."

"Like I said it's none of your business." I glared at him and stood up grabbing my backpack and walked out of the cafeteria. I passed Jen and Embry on the way out but didn't acknowledge them and just kept going. A few seconds after I sat on a bench near the parking lot Edward was by my side pulling me into his arms.

"You know frowning is only going to give you wrinkles." He said as he rubbed my back.

"Oh, shut up, did you get me that lemonade?"

He handed me the bottle of lemonade and I opened it and took a drink.

"I think I'm just over stressed with midterms coming up and meeting your family and for some reason that I will never know you and Embry hating each other." I place the lid back on the lemonade and sighed, "It's just too much. It's not your fault I take everything in and bottle it up and I need to stop doing that."

"I will love you no matter how you deal with things." He said as he kissed my forehead.

"Yeah well maybe you shouldn't." I said as I looked down at my hands.

"Bella you don't see yourself clearly." He said lifting my face with his index finger, "And I hope one day you do."

We sat in silence until the bell rang and then walked to biology together.

My mood had somewhat improved by the end of school. As we drove home Edward turned to me, "I won't be in school Friday, if I'm going to spend all day with you Saturday I'll need to hunt. Jasper and Emmett are going with me but Alice and Rose will be there if you need anything."

"Okay Alice I can trust but until I actually meet Rosalie I can't say for sure that I trust her." I said as he pulled up to my house.

"Bella I promise she will behave herself," He said getting out of the car and coming around to my side and opening the door at vampire speed. "And besides she would never disrespect Carlisle and Esme by putting you in danger or leaving you alone."

"Okay I'll take your word for it but that doesn't mean I have to like it." I said as we walked into my house.

As I walked into the kitchen to see what to make for dinner I noticed 2 notes attached to the fridge. The first from Charlie,

Bells and Jen

Went fishing with Billy will be gone till Sunday night

Make sure you lock the doors while I'm gone

And no boys over!

-Dad-

I laughed to myself I wouldn't be able to keep Edward away for 4 days and even then Charlie didn't even know Edward spent every night with me as it was so he would never know he was here while he was gone. Also the idea of having to lock the doors while Edward was here was indeed laughable.

The second on was from Jen,

Bella,

Saw dads note the last bit is laughable,

Anyway don't worry about dinner tonight

Embry is taking me to meet his mom I'm eating there

I'll be back before nine.

-Jen-

I laughed at the first part of her note and sighed with relief at the fact that I didn't need to make dinner. I tore up her note so Charlie wouldn't be able to read it then threw it away. Edward walked in as I was tossing the pieces in the trash can.

"What was that?" He asked motioning to the trashcan with his head.

"Oh Jen left a note saying she wouldn't be home for dinner, I had to tear it up because she made a comment about Charlie's note." I said handing him Charlie's note, it only took as second for him to read it when he was done he laughed.

"I can only imagine what she had to say about that." He said tossing the note in the trash with the other one.

"She said it was laughable." I said with a grin, "Nothing looks good let's go upstairs so I can start my homework."

Edward lounged on my bed while I did my homework. I was half tempted to make him do it but I could just imagine him saying something like, 'if I do it then you won't learn anything' he was such a smart ass sometimes.
