And my new fanfics friend, who squealed when I updated lol. Love it! And to dalistar123 because I made her wait so long!

EDPOV

A boyfriend, innocent Bella was getting a boyfriend? I didn't like this, they were hitting that middle school age, and that was when everything starts. The hormones, the kissing, oh god, sex.

No, no way was she getting a boyfriend. I will make sure of it myself. Our innocent Bella couldn't be involved like this.

Home school, yeah that was a good idea, I thought as I walked around my room. That could work, that's a good idea maybe I should…

"Edward?" Jasper walked in, eying me curiously. "You okay? Your emotions are kind of freaking out. I got a sudden wave of jealously while Emmett was talking to Alice. I realized it was coming from you. Anything going on you'd like to talk about?"

I explained the situation quickly, Jasper nodded as I talked, "I see, I agree, I don't want her dating either," He said, his brow furrowed, "But why are you jealous?"

"I'm not," I defended myself, "I just don't want her getting hurt."

That's not what your emotions were just screaming. He thought, "Jasper I mean it," I said, not having the patients for this. "I'm going to go talk to her." I said and left Jasper in my room, alone.

I knocked on Bella's door and heard her yell, "Come in!" I opened the door and saw her sitting at her desk, wearing a dark purple, long sleeved shirt, jeans, and her long brown hair pulled into a messy bun on top of her head. This was bad, she didn't look twelve years old at all. She was focusing on a book so she barely looked up until I spoke.

"Hello Bella." I walked in and sat on her bed. Her head flew up and quickly she marked her page and set the book down.

"Hi Edward," She studied me for a moment before asking, "What's wrong Edward?"

"Nothing." I said, trying my best to smile.

"Edward, I know when you're lying. You may be really good at the whole stone face thing but I see right through it, so what is wrong?" She asked stubbornly, crossing her arms.

My gosh ,this girl knew me better than anyone. In fact I think she knew all of us better than we thought. She observed us when we weren't paying attention, learned our habits and our moods. She knew more than we gave her credit for sometimes?

"Well I was just wondering if there was anything you would like to tell me?" She looked at me curiously, "Bella we are close, right?"

"You're my best friend Edward." She confirmed.

"Then you would tell me big things going on in your life right?" she nodded, then slowly her cheeks got red.

"You heard the conversation with Rosy didn't you!?" She asked, mortified. I nodded. "Aw, man." Her face turned brighter.

"Why didn't you want to tell me?" I asked, a little hurt.

"Because it's girl stuff, and it's embarrassing talking about boys with you Edward!" She said, and I couldn't help but laugh.

"I don't like thinking about you dating a boy." I admitted. "It's dangerous."

"Well I don't like thinking about you dating a girl either Edward," She shot back, "They're all man eaters, no pun intended. They go after your money, which less face it you have. It's dangerous out there." I looked at her shocked and I could hear the laughter of my family members coming from different sections around the house.

"Where did you learn the term 'man eaters?'" I asked her. She shrugged.

"The song, tv, school, and it's what Rosalie always calls girls who flirt with Emmett." She said as if it was obvious. I heard Rosalie laugh as Esme scolded her. The Emmett's booming laughter followed by, "AW, honey you do care!" then a loud smacking sound and Emmett's loud OW!

"Bella this is different, boys they… well they they're no good." I tried to explain.

"Why?" She asked looking at me.

"Um, well they just they…."

Dude, Edward got himself locked into giving Bella the sex talk! Emmett's mind screamed.

"Alice," I mumbled under my breath, "Help, I can't do this!" a few seconds later Alice opened the door.

"Hi Bella!" She skipped into the room, "I'm going to take over this talk because Edward's silly boy brain just went into overdrive." Bella looked confused so I just stood, gave her a kiss on the forehead and walked out of the room.

EPIC! Emmett's mind screamed.

"Shut up." I laughed before going back to my room.

BPOV

Alice Just left after having 'the talk' with me. I'll admit it was rather awkward, but luckily I had already learned this in school so it didn't last long. I stood and walked down to the living room where everyone was gathered.

Emmett looked confused and I realized no one had explained the situation to him. Everyone seemed to know now except him. Rosalie realized this too, and I saw her lean over and quickly whisper into Emmett's ear.

He jumped out of his seat, a growl escaping his throat. Everyone stopped what they were doing to stare at him. "What! No, no, no Bella you can't date, ever! Boys are pigs, trust me I should know I am a boy." I laughed, despite myself.

"Oh Emmett shut up," Rosalie said looking at her mate.

"Yeah we talked and she called Austin, they are going to the movies tomorrow afternoon." Alice added, I inwardly groaned.

"What!?" Three male voices said in unison, I was lucky dad was still at work.

"No way," Edward say standing with Emmett.

"Not gonna happen," Jasper added, standing as well.

"Over my dead body, ill tie the kid up in his play station chords if I have to." Emmett finished off.

"Oh would you three stop acting crazy," Esme said, coming over to wrap her arm around my shoulder, "Bella is growing up, she is going to go on dates, now you need to stop acting childish." Esme scolded, everyone frowned when she mention me growing up.

"But," Jasper started.

"No," Esme interrupted.

"Esme," Edward started to reason. "Stop," Esme said simply.

"Now this isn't a done deal here," Emmett protested, finally Esme glared.

"Would you just shut it and stopped acting silly. It's a date, not a marriage proposal."

"It's not even a date," I added, "It's just a movie." They all glared but sat back down. Edward at his piano, Emmett next to Rosalie, and Jasper by Alice who was definitely having a vision, her eyes were glazed and she was staring at the spot above my head.

APOV

I laughed as Jasper protested to Bella dating, as all the men protested. Bella finally told them it wasn't even a date, and I saw the boys' faces turn into scowls, but none of them spoke another word. Jasper glared as he began to sit down, when I was hit with a vision.

I was walking in a forest with Jasper by my side, we were laughing happily, then suddenly he wasn't there, I was alone but, still I was happy.

Then I saw out family crying in a field, two were missing, Edward and Bella. I could feel the pain, we were crying for Edward, he was gone.

Then the vision changed and I was watching Bella older Bella, maybe sixteen, sitting on her bed crying.

And then I was with Jasper. "It was never supposed to be like this." I told him. He looked at me like he couldn't believe what I was talking about. (What was I talking about?) "How is this possible, Alice?" He asked me, "How can that be true after everything that just happened?"

"Jasper, I don't know, but it seems that it has, or is starting to, happen." He shook his head, "Jasper, look at me," I said grabbing his face, "Do you feel it? Answer honestly, can you feel it inside you?"

"Yes." He said glancing down almost like he was displeased by this.

"Then that proves that its true." I told him softly, "Now go, there is someone that needs you right now more than me." Jasper turned to go but stopped.

"I will always love you, Alice." He said.

"If only that were enough," I told him, before he began to run. Then the vision ended. (EEEEEP! RYANNN)

"Alice? Are you okay?" Bella asked, I nodded thinking about the vision. It had made no sense. Why was I alone in the forest? What is going to happen to Edward? And Bella? Why was she crying? And what it the world were Jasper and I talking about? Were we not going to be together forever? No that couldn't be right, he was my soul mate.

I looked up and saw Edward staring at me questioningly. I shrugged telling him I didn't know what any of it meant. I tried to push it out of my head, tried to forget.

"You okay Alice?" Jasper said, wrapping his arm around me, pulling me onto his lap. I nodded and he kissed me gently. "I love you more than anything, you know that?" He said smiling.

I nodded, but for the first time I wondered if that would always be true…

BPOV

Alice had me locked in my room, with a curling iron and all my clothes on my bed. "We'll go with casual." She said, pulling out a pair of skinny jeans, and my black books. "And this shirt." She grabbed a dark blue button up blouse.

"Alice, I have to go or I'm going to be late." I told her putting the clothes on.

"Okay okay." She smiled and rushed my out of my bed room and down stairs where everyone waited. Rosalie and Mom smiled and gave me a hug. The four men were all sulking. "Bye." I laughed before rushing outside with Alice.

She sped down the road, ending up at the theater early, thanks to her crazy driving. We waited a few minutes until I saw Austin get out of a car and go to the ticket booth. I quickly said goodbye to Alice and went to meet him.

"Hi Bella." He said smiling.

"Hi Austin." I smiled too, admitting to myself that I was excited.

He bought the tickets and my candy before we went into the theater. We were seeing the new Harry Potter (A/N: ….haha)

We talked happily, about school and our summer plans until the movie came on.

Halfway through, Austin got his arm around my seat. I smiled inwardly, only thinking this ever happened in movies.

After the movie we went to the front of the theater, outside to wait for our rides. "I had fun, Bella." Austin said shyly.

"Me too." I blushed…of course.

"Bella, I like you a lot." He told me making me smile, "I was wondering if you maybe want to be my girlfriend? You know, talking on the phone, going places together, holding hands and stuff?" I thought about it for a moment before thinking, why not?

"Okay." I said smiling. He smiled too. Then took a step closer.

"Hey, Bella? Since you're my girlfriend now, can I kiss you?" he asked. Shocked I just nodded slightly. Then Austin closed the space between us.

He pressed his lips to mine, making my tummy flip. It lasted only a few seconds before he stepped back, and I realized I had just had my first kiss. He smiled at me sheepishly.

That was when I turned and saw a black Mercedes waiting… For me… "Er, I have to go, my rides here." I said. "Bye Austin,"

"Bye Bella." He said smiling as I walked towards the car, seeing through the window, a mass of curly blonde hair… Jasper.

I opened the door and slid in. Jasper just sat there. "Jasper?" I asked when we didn't move.

"He just… you just…. Oh boy." I couldn't help but laugh. "Bella did you just kiss that boy?"

"Um, if I said no would you believe me?"

"I wish." He muttered before pulling out of the parking lot.

JPOV

I was waiting for Bella, I was a little antsy, I just wanted her to come out already. Then I saw her walking out with the boy and stopping to talk. She hadn't seen me here yet. So I watched. They talked for a while.

"Bella, I like you a lot." He said, "I was wondering if you maybe want to be my girlfriend? You know, talking on the phone, going places together, holding hands and stuff?"

I sat shocked, praying she would say no, we weren't ready for this, hell, I wasn't ready to have Bella dating.

"Okay." She said. Then the boy stepped closer, a small growl escaped from my throat when he asked to kiss her. And she nodded.

The boy had his mouth on Bella's. His lips were on our Bella. My Bella, the girl I had watched grow up for so long.

When it finished she saw me and blushing, ran to the car.

. "Jasper?" she asked when I didn't move the car. I was stunned; I couldn't believe that had just happened. I think I was scared for like now, or eternity… even worse.

"He just… you just…. Oh boy." I couldn't get the words out. "Bella did you just kiss that boy?"

"Um, if I said no would you believe me?" she asked.

"I wish I muttered before leaving the movie theater.

Edward read my mind a mile away, and he saw exactly what I did. I knew he had filled in everyone, when I sense three angry men, and three giddy women as I pulled into the driveway.

As soon as we walked in Bella was swarmed, and getting asked a million questions. Alice came over to me and kissed me, making me, momentarily, forget everything. She always had that affect on me. She pulled away and I saw her smile.

But the smile didn't reach her eyes. She had been different since that vision yesterday. And she refused to tell me what it was about.

I hugged her tightly and whispered into her ear, "I love you my sweet, pixie angel."

"I know." She whispered back , "I love you too."

Oddly though she seemed, almost as if she didn't believe me when I said it. That was strange, never had she felt that way that I know of.

"I mean it," I assured her, "I will love you forever." She just hugged me tighter. And at that moment I hugged her close too, never wanting to let go of this piece of perfection…

A/N: GOOD? I hope lol. I liked this it showed everyone's protectiveness. A little Alice drama what?! Lol and jealous Edward, raging Emmett, and Jasper. I love it haa. Tell me what you think please.
