Edward:

"I hate your mother!" rants Bella as I walk her to class. "She's horrible."

"But Bells", I say. "She hasn't done anything yet."

"She told me to leave you."

"That's it?" Sounds harmless to me.

"It can't get worse than that", she says incredulously.

"Sweetheart, this is nothing. You have no idea she did with Rosalie. I'm surprised that Rose hasn't left my brother yet."

"Why is she like this?" she wonders. "Whats her problem?"

"Gramma Cullen used to hate Mom so in turn, Mom has made it her mission to hate any female to enter Emmett's or my life."

"That's stupid", she says.

"Yeah", I reply. "But there's nothing you or I can do about it so just deal with it. She'll be gone soon enough."

"What about after that?" my girl growls at me. "You want me to avoid Esme forever? Edward, I want to be on good terms with her since I plan to be in your life!"

"Bells..." How do I explain things to her?

Her eyes widen and she gasps. "Or you don't want us to last? Do you think that we won't last together? Is that it? That's why! Oh God. Is this a silly little fling for you?"

Thanks for the support! I hope you're enjoying.
