Chapter 11

Edward's Point Of View

Bella hasn't really spoken to me for about three days. I knew the whole sleeping will Holly was stupid but I was still a virgin (208 year old virgin…how pathetic) and she asked me for it. What two hundred and eight year old virgin turns down sex with a hot blonde? And besides, Holly is sweet and caring and kind…just like Bella.

I didn't think Bella would go to such dire measures. I mean suicide, really?

I walked up to her house and took a deep breath. I knocked on the door and heard, "Momma! Daddy! Someone is at da doowr!"

Nate answered the door, "What the hell do you want?" he growled.

"I want to talk to Bella." I murmured

"I really don't think Bella wants to see you."

"I know you hate me and Bella probably does, too, but I want to apologize." I explained.

Nate sighed, "She's giving Emilee a bath. Come on in."

I walked in and was yet again awed by the beauty and perfection of their home.

Nate led me to the living room. I sat on the couch while he went to go get Bella.

I heard them in the bathroom.

"Splash!" Bella exclaimed as Emilee giggled.

"Baby?" Nate asked, "Edward's here."

"Why?" She asked.

"He wants to apologize."

I was watching it in his mind. Bella sighed and stood up. She rinsed the bubbles off her hands in the sink. Nate kneeled by the tub to play with Emilee. She giggled as she splashed.

Bella walked out, wiping her hands on a small towel. Her hair was in a sloppy bun and she had a button up shirt on and her sleeves were pushed up above her elbow. She had jean shorts on and was barefoot.

She put her hands on her hips and just looked at me.

"Bella, I'm sorry. I didn't think it would send you to such…extremes. I mean, suicide, Bella?"

She looked incredulous. She suddenly laughed.

"Bella, this is hardly a laughing matter."

"I didn't try to commit suicide because of you. Nate and I got in fight and he said we were over. It had nothing to do with you."

"But I thought-"

"That the world revolved around you and no one can live without you? Yeah, no."

Shadow skipped out. "Hi, Ewwward!"

I was still appalled. I had thought it was my fault. I guess this visit was pointless.

"My daughter said 'Hello' to you."

"Hi, Shadow." I muttered.

She giggled and skipped away.

I looked down, not wanting to meet her eyes. The eyes that probably shouted "You're so vain" at me.

I heard the bath water draining. I saw Nate carry a towel wrapped Emilee to what was apparently his and Bella's room.

"I don't know what to say." I muttered.

"How about, 'I'm sorry I was so vain.' Or 'I'm sorry I wasted five minutes of your life'" Nate suggested, holding a now dry and fully clothed Emilee.

Bella was trying to hold back her giggles. I glared at him.

Emilee started giggling and clapped her chubby little hands together. "Funny!" she exclaimed.

Bella began to laugh but then composed herself. "I'm sorry, Edward. That was rude of me." She said between giggles.

I stood, "Alright, enough humor at my expense." I repeated Bella's word from the night we played baseball with my family.

She smiled slightly.

I headed towards the door, "I'm sorry I made assumptions. That wasn't right." I murmured.

She shook her head, "its fine. I'm okay now so, it's all good."

I walked out the door and down the street to Holly's house.

Bella's Point Of View

I chuckled as I closed the door behind Edward.

Nate smiled angelically and Emilee giggled.

"That was mean." I scolded.

"You laughed!" he accused.

"I did," I allowed, "but it was still mean."

"Emmy even thought it was funny."

"Yeah, yeah! Funny!" Emilee exclaimed happily.

I chuckled and mussed her light brown hair.

"Momma!" she called and reached for me.

I pulled her into my arms and snuggled her. She began to giggle when Shadow appeared, "GROUP HUG!" she exclaimed, reaching for Nate. He scooped her up and we all hugged as Shadow and Emilee giggled away.

"HIDE AND SEEK TIME!" Shadow shouted and ran to hide. I chuckled as Nate ran to hide, too. Emilee covered her eyes with her chubby little hands and counted, "Uhhhnn, toooooo, fweeeee, ten!" Emilee giggled. We counted and then went to find Nate and Shadow.

It took a solid ten minutes but we eventually found them hiding under the bed.

Our family's hide and seek was a little different. No powers whatsoever. No mind control, no mind reading.

We took turns until dinner time. I made dinner and after we watched "Beauty and the Beast" until bedtime. Nate put Shadow to sleep while I put Emilee to sleep.

Emilee was out like a light in her crib and Nate was in the bed room. I was on my way there but was stopped by Shadow. "Momma, Daddy won't wet me have a cookie!"

"Honey, its bedtime."

"Pweeeeezzzze, Mommy?" she begged, flashing her infamous puppy eyes at me.

I sighed and got her an Oreo. She ate it and I kissed her and sent her to bed.

I was putting the Oreos (A/N O-R-E-O OHHH! Inside Joke) away when I looked up to see Nate staring down at me with his arms crossed.

"Hey." I said guiltily.

"Bella, I told her no cookies."

"I know but one cookie won't hurt." I defended.

He sighed and pulled me in for a hug. I leaned my head on his chest, "Next time please don't. I don't want her to think its okay to disobey us." I nodded.

He picked me up bridal style and carried me into our room. He tossed me gently on the bed before climbing on top of me. This is going to be fun.


Don't you just love how I lead up to the..sexualness with 'This is going to be fun' ?

FAF!

And "RRRRRRRR! I SAID NO COOKIES!"

Sorry, SDCM
