Sorreeeee! I haven't updated in live a MILLION years! I will update more. I promise. I pinky Promise. Yaaaay!
"Again, I'm really sorry about, Charlie."
"Bella, you've said that about five times since we left the house! Its fine!"
"I thought he'd scare you off..." I'd hoped he'd scare you off. This thing was getting harder and harder to go along with....I needed to drop him soon...Ugh, It physically hurt to think that....
"Well you were wrong. You can't get rid of me that easily, Miss Swan." Dammit. Foiled again.
"I hope your parents like me more than Charlie liked you..." NO! I hope they say I am a little slut and not worth the dirt beneath his shoes.
"Well....I'm almost positive they won't offer you fake tanner..." He chuckled and laid his hand on my cheek. "Of course they'll like you, Bella." he said softly.
"K...keep y your eyes on the r-road." I stammered trying to tear my eyes away from his.
He just laughed.
A few minutes later, the Volvo stopped outside the Cullen mansion. I took a deep breath and stepped out of the car.
"I repeat, they'll love you. You have nothing to worry about." Sure. Whatever you say...
He opened the door and we stepped inside.
"Hello, Bella." Edward's father greeted me. "I'm Carlisle and this is Esme." He nodded to the caramel haired woman beside him.
Ok. I had to think of something to say...something that would offend them so much, they'd chase me out of the house with a stick.
What would offend my mum....?
"Your shirt looks like something I saw in a museum from the 1900's?" I nodded at Esme's top. Ughhhh! I hated being rude!
Esme's eyes widened and Edward and Carlisle exchanged a warning glance.
"Oh. Ah..thank you dear." murmured Esme.
No! That was not a compliment! Be mad! I thought desperately.
"Uh....come on , love.." Oh crap. Did he seriously just call me love? Slightly turned on here... ".....Lets go meet the rest of the family."
"Bella!" boomed Emmett. "What you doing in my house?"
"I..uh...um..I'm just..."
"Ignore Emmett." muttered Edward. "He's just in a bad mood because he lost a bet."
"That bet isn't over yet Eddie. And I'm actually very confident..."
Oh God. Better steer the conversation away from bets. " That the new vampire movie out looks good, right? The one with Robert Pattinson in it."
There was an awkward silence.
Alice let out a little squeak.
"Sounds great Bella. We'll definitely go see it. Lets do something huh?" gabbled Edward.
"Yeah! Lets play a game!"
"A NON-vampire related game."
"Yah. NO vampires."
"Truth or dare?" suggested Jasper.
"No! Spin the bottle!" yelled Emmett.
"Not a chance." said Edward firmly, placing his hand around my waist. "How about "Guess what number I'm thinking" and I'll be the guesser!" he smirked.
"No!" shouted everyone.
"Why not?" I asked. I personally liked that game. Meh. When in Rome....
"Lets just say, Edward has a certain gift when it comes to...."
"EMMETT! I need to see you in the kitchen." growled Rosalie, pulling him by the ear.
"Ow....ow ow ow! That really hurts..DON'T START WITHOUT ME!"
"Idiot." muttered Alice.
"Truth or dare sounds fun." I blurted out.
"Yeah. Lets start while Em's out of the room." Edward pulled me onto his lap and we plopped down on the couch.
"Let the games begin." he whispered, his breath tickling my ear.
Of course, I was dizzy for an ENTIRELY different reason.
"Ok. Me first!" squealed Alice.
"Fine. Truth or Dare?" asked Edward.
"Truth."
"Ok. If Jazz had no fashion sense, would you still be mar.....I mean be dating him."
Alice bit her lip. "I...."
She was quiet for a few seconds, staring at her hands.
"Alice!" cried Jasper. "Would you really dump me because of the way I dressed?"
"No...mumbled Alice. "But if your shoes didn't match your pants...."
"I do believe it is Bella's turn!" said Edward loudly.
"Oh. Yes. Truth or dare Bella?" murmured Alice, avoiding Jasper's horrified expression.
"Uh...Truth, I guess." I looked up. Emmett walked in and was carrying a tray of drinks, wearing this really really fake smile (Rosalie was still holding his ear).
"Here you go, Bella." he said, handing me a coke. "It is so nice to have you here and..." he glanced at the palm of his hand. "You and Edward make a great carrot....OW! Couple...."
"Oh...Um...Thanks..." I took a huge gulp of my drink so I wouldn't have to say anything else.
"Ok, Bella. Answer this...." said Alice. "Your truth is...Are you in love with Edward?"
Ohmygosh! Coke came gushing out of my nose. I spluttered and coughed while everyone except Edward and I laughed their heads off. Edward just patted me slowly on the back and stroked my hair.
"I...I...Do I what?" I spluttered.
"Do you love Edward?" repeated Alice.
"You don't have to answer that." growled Edward fiercely, playing with my fingers.
"Well...we've...we've only known each other...."
"My turn. Dare." said Jasper suddenly. He was starting to look SERIOUSLY uncomfortable.
"Oooo! I'll give you one!"said Emmett. "I dare you to eat!"
"Eat?" I scoffed, desperately trying to forget the last minute. "Thats not very hard! And Edward told me you were good at this!"
"Oooo!" chanted everyone except Jasper, who looked rather sick now.
"Fine!" Emmett glared at me. "Jasper, I dare you to eat Bella!" he smirked.
"EMMETT!" screamed everyone. Edward's grip tightened around me.
Yeah, cos I minded soooo much!
I started giggling. Mental image of Jasper eating me!
Everyone stared at me. "What?" I giggled. "It was a funny joke."
"Yes!" said Edward quickly. "Joke! Ha. Ha ha ha."
"You're...so funny..Emmett. Ha."
"Um....I think I should get you home Bella!" Edward said, scooping me up off the couch.
"We've been here like...five minutes!" I protested.
"I know....but I just thought maybe we could go for a walk!"
"In other words, he's sick of sharing you and wants you.... All. To. Himself!" chuckled Emmett.
"No! I just want to go for a walk!" argued Edward.
"Yes...yes..." Emmett folded his legs. "And tell me Edward....Will you be wearing clothes on this walk?"
"YES! We will be!"
I winked at Emmett and looked up at Edward, my face full of mock confusion. "We will?"
"We...I uh...well if you don't want to...I guess...."
"Oh Its ok." I assured him. "I don't get my Brazilian till next week anyway." Emmett cracked up. I lowered my voice so only he could hear me. "That is...If you can wait till then.....Bye everyone!"
As we walked out the door, I heard Emmett exclaim... "I LOVE THAT GIRL!"
EPOV
Wow.
Wow wow wow wow.
Oh well. At least the whole evening didn't go to waste!
Sure, the better part of it was a ABSOLUTE DISASTER but near the end....
And really, who knew that good could come from something EMMETT said!
Wow.
"Sorry about my wierdo family." I said as we walked hand and hand along a track in the forest. It was twilight and the forest looked beautiful. But it was nothing compared to who I was holding hands with...
"Mmmm...Wait what?" she asked, looking up from the forest floor.
I smiled. "I said I was sorry for the bunch of losers I call my brothers and sisters."
"They're great, Edward." she murmured. "E..Edward can I tell you something?" she seemed really nervous.
"Anything."
"You know that truth Alice gave me?"
Oh God. I was going to kill Alice! She had scared Bella away! "Oh, Bella! I am so so so sorry about that! That was really mean of Alice. I'm so sorry if it made you feel awkward or pressured....or anything. Asking if you loved me was just..."
"But I do love you." she whispered. "I really really love you Edward Cullen."
Taking a word out of Edwards amazing dictionary of wonder...Wow.
Yah. So do I Bella. So do I....
