And Here I Thought it Wouldnt Get Worse
EPOV
"What are you doing here Emmett"
"Whoa whoa… don't look so happy to see me. Alice saw what happened… I had to wrestle everyone in the house to come get you…I was not passing this chance up"
He handed me the pants through the window and hitched my car to his truck while I changed.
"So how bad is it gonna be when I get home?
"Well… Alice is doing a killer expression of your "O" face… Oh Oh Oh"
He grabbed onto the steering wheel trying to mock me.
"Its not funny…at all… besides you act like its never happened to you…"
"Actually, it hasn't. I unlike you my dear brother am capable of satisfying a woman…human and vampire alike."
I tried ignoring his thought of the countless woman he had been with prior to Rose and then gagged when he thought about all the stuff he did with her.
"Do you mind… besides that isn't what I was talking about. Alice must have told you she knows."
"Um yea, we know she knows, but what just happened is way funnier to talk about. Even Carlisle is getting a kick out of it."
"Im glad I can amuse you all but still, Rose is upset I know that much."
"Yea but you know her. She'll get over it once the attention is back on her for some reason or another. I guess she just doesn't get it. None of us really do actually."
"I don't either. That's the scary part. Its like I can't stay away."
"Well, all I can say and im sure you'll get tired of hearing this…Be careful. The last thing we need is the chiefs' daughters blood on your hands."
I grimaced at the thought of hurting her.
"Im sure I can manage to control myself around her"
"Apparently not…."
Emmett smirked at me and I couldn't help but laugh. Although I knew his jokes would be relentless… they were all in good humor. We rode the rest of the way home in verbal silence but that didn't stop Emmett's mind from running through every premature ejaculation joke he could think of. When got upstairs everyone was sitting in the living waiting for me. Oh boy, here we go… a big family discussion. So not what I wanted to deal with. Japer was trying to keep the mood in the room relaxed but he wasn't doing very well. All around me everyone had smiles on their faces like they were trying to hold back laughter.
"Alright everyone, go ahead and laugh it up. Im sure nothing embarrassing had happened to any of you."
Rose sat in the recliner looking at me. "Last time I checked vampires were supposed to be graceful. That…That was not graceful at all. You're no different from a regular teenage boy."
She busted out in a fit of laughter and everyone joined in except for Esme. She was at my side in an instant pulling my head to her shoulders.
"Okay okay, lets leave Edward alone. Im sure we've embarrassed him enough for tonight. Besides we have more important issues to talk about."
"I don't see why we all have to be apart of this discussion. It's his problem not ours. "
"Rose we are a family; we handle everything as a family"
"Yea but Carlisle, he didn't tell anyone he was going to tell her. It none of her business what we are. There was no need to rat out the whole family."
"I apologize Rose; I didn't mean to inconvenience you in any way. And in my defense I hadn't intended to tell her that way. I had everyone intention on speaking with all you before I said anything.
I could tell that Rose was angrier than she let on. She was cursing me out in her head where no one else could hear her.
"Yea but you didn't. I don't see why you could just be with Tanya like everyone wanted. You had to go and fall in love with a human. What's wrong with you?"
Everyone sat in silence while we argued. It was a spoken rule that no one wouldn't interfere with a fight unless it got violent.
"Why should I be forced to be with someone I don't feel anything for? Rose no one said anything when you brought Emmett home. And I never told anyone how you watched him before his "incident. So how are you any different than me?"
I swear if she could have turned red she would have. She balled up her fists and stomped her foot on the floor breaking a hole it in.
"Edward you asshole! You'll pay for that!"
She jumped at me but I was to fast for her. Carlisle stepped in-between us and she stoppedshort to keep from crashing into him.
"Rosalie, you know we never use violence in this house. Get a hold of yourself!"
Rose walked back over to her seat and sat down. I loved my sister but she certainly was a spoiled brat. Esme was holding my hand the whole time. I know she hated it when we argued. Usually someone would leave for a year or two and she would be depressed. I hated it when she was upset and even more so when I was the cause of it. She cleared her throat and pushed me towards the couch to sit down.
"Okay. That's it. All of you listen to me. Everyone has someone in this house expect for Edward and now that he's found someone we should be happy for him. I wouldn't care if he fell in love with a damned rock and neither should you. You all know what if feels like to have someone to love. Rosalie, why wouldn't you want that for you brother?"
We all sat in silence. I hated being the topic of discussion. The last time they discussed my love life they attempted to set me up with Tanya, our "cousin", from Denali and lets just say that didn't go very was still trying to control the mood in the room enough to get everyone to calm down. We sat there looking at each other. Hours could have passed.
Finally Jasper spoke, "I personally don't have any objection to the two of them being together. In fact I commend Edward on giving Bella the choice. It would have been worse had she found out in some other unfortunate way."
Everyone chimed in with pretty much the same feelings expect for Rosalie.
"Edward look, its not that I don't want you to be happy. But I like it here. It's the only place were we can live semi-normal lives. I'm not ready to give that up. Cant you just stay away from her? Or you know go someplace else until she graduates or something."
Esme started fuming. She was gripping the couch hard enough to crush the wood in the arm.
"ROSALIE HALE…DON'T YOU EVER EVER ASK ONE OF YOU FAMILY MEMBERS TO LEAVE THIS HOUSE. THAT IS NOT YOUR REQUEST TO MAKE. YOU APOLIGIZE RIGHT NOW OR SO HELP ME GOD YOU REGRET THE WORDS YOU JUST SAID!"
Carlisle came to Esmes side to try and calm her and I could feel Jasper trying with all his strength to do the same.
"Im sorry. Im sorry mom…. I didn't mean to upset you. Its just…
"No… not another word out you Rosalie. You've said enough tonight. Go… go to your room. I don't wanna hear another peep out of you for the rest of the night."
Rosalie got up and sulked past her.
"Sorry Ed, I didn't know she would…"
I held my hand up telling Emmett he didn't have to continue. He followed up after Rose. In my head I could hear her:
Im sorry Edward. I don really want you to leave. I just don't want something bad to happen. Believe or not I do want you to be happy like the rest of us. Just in a safer way.
"Okay Edward, now that you know how everyone feels we wont push you on this issue anymore. You deserve to be happy like the rest of us. But I must tell you, if you decide to change her, let it be with her consent. After she's been fully informed. There is more than just the feelings of the two you to consider you know. Bella has a family as well."
I couldn't believe what Carlisle was saying to me. Change her? Change Bella?
"Carlisle what are you talking about? I have no intentions on taking Bella's life. That's absurd."
"Edward… I saw it. I saw her as one of us. I don't know how its going to happen but I saw it."
I looked at Alice and my mind was breaking. I never once thought for a moment that I would change her. Ever. Never. Not an option. Out of the question.
"No, that isn't going to happen. I have resolved to stay with her as long as it was safe for her and no longer. I have no intentions on damning her beautiful soul. Its out of the question and I don't wanna hear another word about it."
I took off running out of the house. I needed to clear my head and think about what I should do next.
A/N So now Edwards know he sees Bella being changed. What will he do???? Will he tell her? Give her the choice? Or will he stay away from her ...leave go to Denali like Rose suggested......????
