My Fiancée is my Babysitter?
Alice POV-
"Ok here is the plan. If she needs to babysit us then we will act like the devious kids we are. We will drive her away from the house like those kids did to that one nanny in Nanny McPhee." Emmett stated.
Rose, Edward, and I gawked at him. Jasper managed to crawl to us and was kind of out of his stupor, "Dude as brilliant as that may sound it is not going to work." He stated, "She is too powerful."
"Nonsense…this plan is full proof. It will be so chaotic and awesome that it will surely drive her out."
Edward looked unsure and Rose stated, "Come on Edward you have to do it. She will not listen to reason."
As much as I hated to do it I agreed with them, "Yes Edward. I do not need to be a psychic to see that there is no other way. Isabella Swan aka the Evil Babysitter from Hell has to go. It may be the only way to save her and us."
Edward looked pained as if he was betraying some confidential secret and he sighed, "Fine."
Emmett smiled evilly as Edward began to talk and then we started planning.
Esme POV-
Ah…it felt so nice to be away from the house and the chaos from the kids. Carlisle really did have a conference to go to, but it was only for a day and we were using this day as nice relaxing getaway. But sadly this relaxing thought was short lived and a wave of uneasiness washed over me.
Picking up my emergency phone I dialed home when I felt a hand on my shoulder, "What are you doing love?" My darling husband asked.
"Calling home. I can't help but feel that something is wrong." I said worriedly.
Carlisle sighed and said for the uptenith time, "They are fine love. Just relax. They wouldn't dare hurt Bella and most certainly Edward wouldn't dare disobey my orders." He rubbed my arm but I pressed send.
"I'll call just to check in." I went to the balcony and waited.
After five rings Bella picked up, "Yellow?"
"Hey honey how are you guys doing?" I asked, "Everything ok?"
"Yeah Esme everything is fine…nothing to worry about." Bella said very fast and I picked up the lie instantly.
I heard yelling and music blaring in the background, "Bella what's that noise?"
"Nothing Esme it's the TV." Bella said very fast again. And I heard Carlisle coming over and he had on his curiosity look.
Not buying it for one minute I decided to play along, "Well turn it down so it doesn't break."
"Ok well go back and have fun." Bella said panicking.
"Kay love you guys." I said.
"Yeah you too. Bye." I heard a click and turned to my husband, "Bella said they are fine but I can't get the feeling that she wanted to get me off the phone."
Carlisle sighed as he pulled my close to him, "What did you want to do?"
I bit my lip as I mulled this over. I knew she was lying to me over the phone and something was telling me that it wasn't really alright…"I am sorry love, but we should go home."
Carlisle smiled in understanding and we started to pack and raced to the car.
Bella POV-
What had started out as a simple phone call that elated me from Jimmy explaining that he and his dad can build the piano that I wanted to get Edward for $650 turned to hell; the Cullen 'children' turned to mutiny by starting with trying to drive me insane…and who is to blame? My frickening fiancé that is who! Never did I think that Edward would reveal my deepest and darkest fears. So that brings the reason why I am hiding in a closet. My blessed wolf pendent will not even help me and sadly as much as I hated to admit it…I needed Carlisle and Esme's money to pay for Edward's gift which would just be enough.
All of a sudden I heard crashing and banging around upstairs…it was like something out of the Nanny McPhee movie for Christ's sakes.
"WOOOOHOOO! PARTY IN THE HOUSE!" Emmett yelled out.
"WHAT?" I hollered.
Lo and behold there were random people walking in. All of Esme's vases, portraits, lamps were getting broken. Expensive furniture was getting mud, juice spills, and just random stains all over the place, and water was getting tracked all over the house.
"Yo! Get off the chandelier!" I yelled to some random guy. Then I called for Edward over the loud music, "EDWARD!"
"Yes Bella." He said standing next to me.
"What the hell is all of this?" I yelled to him refusing to believe that he had anything to do with all of this.
"It is what teenagers call a house party while their parents are away. After all you wanted to treat us like teenagers so we are acting like teenagers." He explained like this was all normal.
"Well get them the hell out of here!" I said.
"Oh Bella you really need to loosen up." He said. Then he picked me up and said, "Hey Em! Look who crashed the party!"
"Bella! So glad you came out of hiding!" He cheered and then so did everyone else.
"PUT ME DOWN!" I yelled thoroughly not amused. Alice, Rose, and Jasper walked over to us.
"Oh look Rose. Someone needs cool down don't you think?" Alice asked Rose.
"Oh yes I agree…Jasper?" She stole Jasper a glance and he smiled.
"Certainly. Might I suggest the pool? Edward?" He looked at Edward.
Edward smiled and everyone started to cheer as he was carrying me, "Edward Anthony Masen Cullen put me down now!"
"You want down love?"
"Yes!" I yelled.
"Ok if you insist." And he dropped me in the pool filled with…some kind of gooey goop.
"EDWARD!" I yelled as I tried to climb out, "YOU ARE ALL SO DEAD!"
They ran away laughing and chaos raged in the house and the worse bit was that I had no control whatsoever.
The house phone rang and I answered, "What?"
"Bella, we should be home in about ten minutes." Esme's voice came through.
Oh shit! "Ten minutes? Oh please take the long way." I begged.
"What why? What's wrong?" Her panicked voice coming through the receiver.
I had to think fast, "Because it is such a lovely day out. Why are you coming home anyway? I thought you wouldn't be back until tomorrow?"
I heard her sigh and I was walking trying not to curse at the people, "Because I think it is best we come home…so we will be there soon. Bye!" I just looked at the phone shell shocked. They were coming home…wait not a home…more like a living hell.
"ALICE!" I yelled out.
She appeared in front of me with a drink in her hand, "You bellowed oh great babysitter?"
"You are all so dead and we're screwed." I yelled. Why didn't she see any of this? Surely she should see Esme and Carlisle?
"We? You mean you're screwed." Alice said, "What kind of babysitter allows a home wreaking house party?"
I glared, "Esme and Carlisle are on their way home."
"Wait what?" She gasped. Now she finally realizes that I am not playing.
"What is going on?" Emmett asked while holding Rose and they were dancing. Then they saw me, "Aw is Isabella not having any fun?"
"No Esme and Carlisle are on their way home." Alice said growling.
"Who is coming?" Edward asked as him and Jasper coming to join us, "Why is Emmett cursing that this plan backfired on us?"
I slapped my head, "Whatever what else can go wrong?" I asked.
Of course when a situation is this bad anything can go from wrong to worse, "Uhm…something like that perhaps?" Jasper questioned.
Water started to leak out of the walls up stairs, "Did any of you leave the water running?" I asked.
"Uhm…no." They answered.
This is so not going to end well…
No POV-
A car pulled up the drive way as water poured through the door. Carlisle and Esme stepped out and walked up the wet pathway, shock written on their faces.
Inside about a hundred or so people stood in shock as the parents entered. The group on the floor sputtered trying to spit the water out of their mouths.
Carlisel didn't say anything. His eyes were dark and livid and if he was able to his face would be turning funny shades of purples and reds. Esme on the other hand was shaking and she said in a stern venomous voice to match her dark firery intense glare that sent shivers down the people, "Get out of this house right now or so help me god you all will be knocked so far back to the stone age." The kids were too scared to move under the gaze, "NOW!"
Then the kids ran as fast as they could. Esme and Carlisle turned back to the heap on the floor, "You all have some heavy explaining."
"That is right. This is by far the worst thing that any of you have ever done and I am very disappointed." Carlisle said sternly.
Bella looked at her future…or maybe not future siblings. She knew that Carlisle and Esme knew that this was not her fault but she sighed, "Carlisle…Esme…don't blame them…it wasn't their fault…it was mine."
"What?" They all gasped out. The 'kids' stood shocked at Bella proclamation and her willingness to take the blame for something that she did not even do or know of until the last minute.
"Bella no need to take the blame for them." Esme said gently. She knew that Bella was trying to cover up for her 'children's' behavior. So she quickly wrote out a check and handed it to her, "This should cover what you need. Now just get home safely."
Bella looked at the check and it was the exact amount she needed to pay her friend and father for the piano. There was even some left over for Seth for the bench…but she handed it back, "No. I will not take it."
Carlisle and Esme looked at one another and Esme tried to hand it back over to Bella, "Honey you deserve it. After all I know you tried your best."
"But if you read my file you would see in article two section one that I quote," Bella went over to her bag and pulled out a packet and read from it, "If the house is in less condition than when the parents walked out the babysitter will decline payment and will leave honorably and will also offer funds to fix or replace any property so with." Bella sighed and looked around the remnants of the once pristine Cullen House, "So I will take my leave and find some way to fix your house."
"Bella sweetie you are not going to be able to fix this. It has too much extensive water damage and some of the future will take a while to arrive. It would take you forever and besides you have something more important to pay for honey. So please take the money and let's just forget the whole thing?" Carlisle said gently.
Bella sighed again. It was no use fighting it but tried one more time, "How about I will forget about the incident and this mess, but I will still decline to the money. I want no part of a payment that I did not fully deserve. It goes against my morals and expectations." Ending on that note she put her possessions in her book bag and fitted it on her shoulder.
Carlisle just nodded sadly clearly disappointed in her decision but found it honorable at the same time, "If you insist."
"Carlisle you are not serious? She so deserves this," Esme said.
"Honey what can we do? I am a man of principle and as such I believe that she has a right to uphold her morals and if that is her choice then who am I to force something that she does not want." Carlisle said as he walked Bella to the door.
"I hope we will still see you soon." He stated.
Bella just nodded and met the gaze of Emmett, Rose, Alice, Jasper, and finally Edward. They did not speak but he gave a small shiver at her broken and defeated gaze. Then she walked out.
Edward POV-
We all were on our backs in my meadow. It was the only place that I could think of going and my siblings just followed me. No one was saying a word and I could not get what happened as Bella was leaving out of my head:
Esme and Carlisle did not say a word to us since they walked into the house. In fact they had completely ignored us and kept their thoughts from me when they were exchanging words with my love. We really blew it, Rose thought. I didn't do anything but stand there and watched as Bella tried to decline the money and offer to pay for the repairs. Where would she get the money to pay for this? Jasper wondered. I had not even a clue. I just remembered her talking about money when I was trying to make peace with her. New respect was found in all of us when she outlined her principles to Carlisle about why she was declining the money. I did not see my eighteen year old fiancée, rather the adult she had to become since she turned eleven.
Then before she left she met our gazes:
What have I done? –Emmett thought as he tried to tear his gaze away from her.
Sadness, loss, hopeless –Jasper thought reading some of her emotions.
I still cannot see anything with that pendent she has; but I feel so bad –Alice stated as she looked down.
After all we did, she tried to take the blame for us? Why? –Rose asked also looking down.
Then finally our eyes locked and I shivered. Her eyes held devastation and shame and sorrow. I couldn't comprehend why she would feel like that.
When she walked out it took all I had not to run to her. No one spoke until we no longer heard her car. It was then that Esme gave Carlisle a broken hearted look and he sighed, "I hope you all are happy with yourselves."
"Carlisle-" Emmett started to speak.
"No Emmett. I do not want to hear it." Looking around Carlisle sighed, "Go. Just go."
We did not move as Rose asked, "Where?"
"I honestly do not care. You all seem to be content in doing whatever you all please anyway. It is not like what we say really matters to any of you. Just get out of our sight." Esme was the one who spoke up this time. So without looking at them or at one another we walked out of the house.
"What do you think they will do to us when we get back?" Jasper asked.
Alice sighed, "That is one thing I would rather not know."
No one answered her but then Emmett spoke, "Think Bella will forgive us?"
At the mention of Bella's name Alice gasped and for the first time all weekend she had a vision and it was so sudden that she was not able to block me:
I saw Bella in her room packing. Then she took off my mother's ring that held a special place on her left hand and left it on top of a note addressed for me. Then she went downstairs and left another note for Charlie. Then it went black.
"What the hell was that Alice?" I yelled startling Jasper, Rose, and Emmett.
"I do not know. She must have wanted us to see that so she took the pendent off then put it back on."
Getting up I ran to Bella's house with my siblings following behind me.
