Hello, it's JennsEmeralds. Please no flames on the turn of events. I couldn't help but put a little fantasy in the story. And so the drama begins….well, maybe not yet. But it is going to get a little messy before it gets better.

I want to thank everyone for the reviews, and I also want to apologize for taking sooooo long to update. Sometimes life happens. But I am back to post more chapters.

I want to warn you that there is a scene in here that I would probably call PG-13, but if you are not 13, then you should skip those couple paragraphs towards the last part of the chapter.

Remember I do not own SM.

So here it goes…..

"Bella! Bella!" I heard a faint familiar voice call my name. "Where are you, Bella?" I followed the voice as it sounded more and more frantic. I knew I was getting close when I heard a loud gurgled scream.

I opened a huge door that led me to the Cullen's dining room. The entire family was sitting there at the table. And then I saw Rose, Jasper and ….. my mother?

"Come and sit, love. We've all been waiting for you." Edward was sitting with his back to me and used his hand to motion to the chair next to him. I smiled at his gesture and complied. "I love you." He said with a strained voice. "I love you, too." I said with a hint of suspicion. "Don't listen to him, Bella! He's not..." My mother started to say. "What are you….?" I started to say back to her, and then I saw what she was trying to say. Edward was suddenly behind her across the table. He was looking at me smiling. His lips then started to curl over his teeth. Alice started to laugh as she mentally spoke to Edward. He nodded at her and looked at me. "Your mother has something she wants to tell you."

"Bella, get your ass up, we have practice!" Rose was yelling at me. I sat up in my bed, startled at the alarming tone. Wait, my bed? Oh, yeah. I had come home last night, to Edward's dismay, to think about things alone. So much information had been thrown at me in just a short time from the moment Edward professed his love to me. "God, Edward." I whispered with tears welling up in my eyes. "It's ok, honey. Emmett told me everything. I am always here for you, you know that." Rose was looking straight in my eyes as she wiped my unshed tears with her thumbs. "I know, thanks for that. I love you, sister." I gave her a tight hug. "God, Bella, you are knocking the wind out of me." Rose gasped as she hugged me back. "Sorry, I don't know what's gotten in to me. I guess I've been eating my spinach." I shrugged and laughed it off. The truth was that lately I seemed to have been feeling a little stronger. Normally I would've never been able to make James bleed like I did yesterday. And my emotions were at an all time high. Ever since Edward came into my life…

Rose pulled up in front of the Cullen's to pick up Alice. I didn't even want to look at the front door. My latest dream had been so intense that it gave me the chills just thinking about it. "Hey, guys!" Alice came bouncing out in her practice sweats. When I looked up to see her, I couldn't help but to see Edward standing at the front door. He was staring at me hopelessly. I wanted to say something to him. I wanted to say everything would be ok, that he and I would make it through, but in reality I didn't know what was going to happen. I would give my life for his if it meant he didn't have to go through those tests. What if it killed him? I don't know if I could live on without him in my life. I had just found him, and now I could lose him. I looked away once traitor tears started to fall down my face. "Please go, Rose." I could barely get it out. "Sure, Bella." Rose said silently as she drove off.

"He loves you, Bella. You know that, right?" Alice gave me a reassuring rub on my shoulders from the back seat. "He needs you, and you need him." She was starting to annoy me with words I knew deep inside were true. "But, how do we…" I started before the sobs came again. "Damn emotions!" I slammed my hands down Rose dash board. "Watch the car!" Rose screamed. "Oh, sorry." I whispered. "I don't what's gotten into me lately."

"Has this been happening a lot lately? The anger and heavy emotion?" Alice asked seeming very curious. "Yeah ever since me and Edward…..Is there something you know about this, Alice?" I glared at her. "No! It just reminds me of me and Edward when we were young and going through…nevermind. It's probably nothing." She didn't look like it was nothing. But we were pulling up to the park where we practice and I needed to get in the zone. We had a huge homecoming show to put on, and we needed to pull together everyone's strengths to get the best performance.

Practice was grueling with General Rose at the head of things. It didn't help that Victoria came late, and that James had dropped her off. He planned on staying to watch until Rose told him to 'leave now before she put her ever loving foot up his ass.' She was so awesome. That totally made my day.

"Bella! Keep your ass up! Jessica! Shoulders straight, and suck that gut in! Angela! Pay attention!" Rose was speaking through the megaphone. I did what she said, but I kept my distance from her in order to not stick that megaphone where she'd never find it again. "Good, Victoria! Nice flip!" Rose was praising Victoria, and yelling at me? "Not gonna happen." I mumbled to myself. Alice somehow heard me and chuckled under her breath. "Go get her, Bella." She whispered to me.

I ran towards Victoria planning my next move carefully. I dove to the ground using both hands to vault my legs up over my head. Once over, I tapped my feet to the ground and landed on one hand doing a headstand while rotating my body and vaulting up again. I flipped again in the air and landed on the ground while doing the splits. "Oh my god, Bella! That was beautiful!" Rose was running towards me. "Girls, we are using that move in our routine. Come on, let's get to it." Rose was definitely impressed. Take that, Red. I thought to myself as Victoria made a 'hmmmf' noise and turned away on one heal with her arms folded.

"But that's impossible. I can't do that." Jessica whined. "Yeah, what the hell was that, Bella? That was like some freak move or something." Lauren chimed in. "Please, girls, you can do this. You are Red Hots. And Red Hots can do anything." Rose was giving her motivational speech. "And if you don't, you are off of the team." Now that was motivation. The girls instantly started into formation. Three hours later we were in sync and totally kicking some ass.

"Holy shit, we rock!" I yelled. "Bella! Language!" Alice joked. We gathered our gear and headed to car. "So, are you ready to talk to my brother yet?" Alice was really pushing me. "Alice? You are becoming a little annoying." I said through my teeth. "Just a little?" She teased. I actually felt better after the long practice. It had really cleared my head. "Yes, I am." I let out a long breath. "Great. Everybody's at the house. And Jazzie will meet us there, too." Alice jumped up and down beaming at the thought of seeing Jasper, no doubt.

When we pulled up to the Cullens', I started to get that chill again from this morning. I couldn't shake that dream about my mother. "You ok, Bella? You're shaking." Rose put her hand on my arm. "Yeah, fine." I said as I got out and walked in behind Alice. "Hey, baby. I missed you." Jasper welcomed Alice with a kiss. "Um, we will be up my room." Alice giggled as she led Jasper by the hand. "Go talk to him." She whispered to me. I shook my head at her and started to tell Rose that I had changed my mind and wanted to go home when I heard a booming voice coming toward me. "Bells! I'm so glad to see you!" Emmett yelled as he lifted me up in his arms and twirled me around. "God, Emmett, you are squeezing the air out of her." Rose laughed as he put me down. "Oh, sorry. It's just that you left last night, and I was afraid that you…..well, he was…" Emmett was actually fidgeting. "He's in his room."

I was surprised that Emmett was taking Alice's place of getting into my business. I guess they were very protective of each other. "Ok, I give. I am going up." I nodded at him as I went up to knock on Edward's bedroom door. "Alice, I said to leave me alone. She doesn't want to be with a freak like me, ok?" He was on the verge of tears. "You're wrong." I said softly through the door. "Bella? Is that you?" I could hear him getting off of the bed and walking to the door. "The one and only." I giggled through the door. I heard him breathe out a sigh of relief, and then he opened the door. "I missed you." He pulled me through and locked the door. He led me to the bed. He sat down and pulled me onto his lap. "I really missed you." He wrapped his arms around me and held me. We sat there in silence for God knows how long before he spoke first.

"I thought you were gone. I thought…" I could hear his voice hitch a little as he tried to fight the tears. "I thought I had lost you." He breathed out. "You could never lose me. I won't let you." The words just came out of my mouth so easily. And I meant them. I mean, a few hours ago I was sure we were a doomed couple to walk the streets alone…no, apart….forever. But as soon as I heard his voice and saw how much pain he was really in, with the single thought of losing me, made me realize that I was in the same pain without him. We were destined, somehow, to be together. And even though the future seemed so dim that I couldn't quite see where we were headed, I knew we would get there…somehow. I groaned in frustration at the thoughts in my head when Edward finally spoke again. "Please tell me what you are thinking. I can't stand knowing there are so many things in your head, and I can't hear it."

"How do you know I am thinking anything?" I raised one eyebrow. "I can read your eyes a little. I have been trying to watch your face, too, but you're very difficult to read." He was studying me now, watching every twitch? "Great, I hope I don't have anything on my face." I joked. And he laughed at me. I looked over at him and saw that his smile was so big, that his teeth were showing. Suddenly, parts of my dream of him curving his lips over his teeth came into my head. I shuttered and wiggled my way on of his lap. "What's wrong?" He looked at me startled. I knew that I had just told him that he couldn't lose me, and I still meant it, but my dreams paralyzed me. They had control over me. "Bella." He got up, and I started to back away from him towards the door. "No." I said. "Bella. It's ok." He whispered calmly. "Is it, Edward? Is it ok that I let my dreams take over, and I can't even be close to my own boyfriend because of it?" I started to breath heavier.

"What are you talking about?" He asked, confused about what I was saying. "You know everything about me, Bella. I was so afraid when you found out that you would leave me, but you didn't. For some miracle, you didn't. And now you need to tell me about these dreams, Bella." He had his hands on my shoulders staring straight in my eyes. "You need to tell me." He whispered. I almost thought Alice would tell him, but then she was a great friend that I could confide in, so this was up to me now. Unfortunately.

"You're right. I need to tell you. I love you." I had to remind him of that before I started talking. "I have these dreams, Edward. I have had them periodically in my life. And sometimes they come true." I stopped and looked at his eyes to gauge his reaction thus far. "I'm still here, Bella, go ahead." He coaxed me. "And, lately they have been about you, and me, and others." I told him about the dreams I had when school had started, and how they somehow came true in a round about way. His eyes went from mesmerized when I told him about our first meeting in a dream, to wide with anger when I told him about James and Victoria, and the blood. But he smiled a little when I reminded him of how I made James bleed.

"So, I have told you up to last night. But, the dream I had last night is why I am so shaken." I took a few breaths before the tears started to well up. "Bella, I said I'm not going anywhere. I'm still here. I love you with everything I've got. You can tell me." He held me to his chest and rocked me on the bed. "I'm here for you, always." He gave me a kiss. "Ok, here it goes. Edward, I dreamt that you weren't you. You were…..something else. You're teeth were…..evil." I stopped when shivers went up my body. "And my mother was there, too. You were holding her there, and the entire family was in on it, including Rose and Jasper." I stopped again.

"What were we, Bella….in your dream?" Edward was really interested. "I think you were….Vampires!" I whispered it loudly. "And you said my mother had something to tell me. And then Rose woke me up for practice. I just hadn't seen my mother since I was a kid, and to see her there in my dream. It was so real, Edward, all of it!" I started to sob into his chest. "And what truth can come from that dream?" I shivered again. "I'm so cold."

"Here let's get you under the covers. I'll lay with you. You need to sleep, Bella. You need to….." He was trying to comfort me. I knew that. But, I pushed him away from me. "Sleep? Is that you remedy? When I sleep, I dream, Edward!" I was yelling now. "Ok, ok. No sleep. Let's just cuddle." He lay behind me and pulled me into the curve of his body. I couldn't help but feel that he was a little excited to be so close to me and I giggled. "What?" He said sounding like he was smiling. "It's just that I can feel you, you know." I giggled again. "Can you blame me? I am lying next to the most beautiful on earth." His deep seductive voice cause chills to run through my body as he wiggled closer to me if that was even possible.

"Are you still cold?" He asked noticing my shivers. "No, it's just your voice and your smell…..and everything about you that makes me love you. That's all." I sighed happily. "Oh, is that all. What about this?" He whispered in my ear as he started to place kisses along my neck behind my ear. "Uhhhh…." It felt so good that I couldn't speak, just groan. "You like that, do you?" He chuckled. "Well, I can't wait to see how you react to this." He sounded smug, but confident as he reached under my shirt and unclasped my bra. I tensed up a little, surprised at his actions. "I'm just going to give you a massage, Bella. Relax. I happen to have the hands of a future surgeon." He laughed as he started to move his magical hands across my shoulders, and then he moved up and down my back. "Feels so good…" Was all I could get out as he continued to work my muscles. I actually couldn't help but to relax with the massage he was giving me. He should charge for this. He was that good.

And I couldn't help with every move that he made, to make a move of my own by grinding my body closer to his again. "God, Bella." He groaned as I found purchase against him. He tried his best to keep massaging my back at such close proximity. And I could feel his fingers moving towards my sides to graze the sides of my breasts. I loved it when he touched me. It was heaven. I wanted him to put his hands on my breasts and start massaging, but I remembered the first time I tried to push him further when he rejected me. And I couldn't take it if he did say no again. So I continued to move against him hoping he would take the hint. The anticipation was unbearable to see if he would do it on his own. And then he did.

He started to grind with me while his hands found my hardened peaks. He massaged them like he massaged my back. His touch felt so good that I swore my eyes were rolling to the back of my head. His lips moved across the back of my neck as his hot breath hit my shoulders. We continued like this for a while as we let out little moans of pleasure and heavy breathing. Then I started to hear his breathing speed up so I decided to move my body against him harder and faster. Suddenly, he let out a guttural moan as his hands squeezed my breasts. "Bella….." Is all I heard him say when he fell over the edge. "Bella." He whispered as he turned me over to face him. His lips crashed into mine. Our tongues wrestled with one another as his hands still roamed over my breasts and to my back. My hands kept to his back even though I wanted to feel more of him. But I wasn't sure how far he wanted to go. So we just continued to make out until the room started to turn dark. It was twilight.

I'm sure it had been hours before we finally ceased our 'make out' session. "I love you, Bella more than words can express. Do you know that?" Edward smiled as he reached around to fasten the clasp on my bra. "That's the second time you've been able to do that to me. And we never even took our clothes off. You are amazing." He kissed my forehead. "Oh yeah? Well, your hands are amazing. They felt simply amazing. Do you know that?" I kissed the bridge of his nose. "Is that so, my love? Well, they do have a mind of there own." He smirked. "In fact, they wanted to feel more of you, but I held them back. You just felt so good." He made an evil laugh sound as I made an involuntary intake of breath and held it. "Breath, Bella." He smiled. "Sorry, you just excited me a little." I admitted. "Oh, really. I'll keep that in mind." He looked like he was filing away that tad bit of information for later. At least I hoped he was. "So what are doing for the rest of the evening, my love?" He asked as he stared into my eyes. "Ummmm. I was actually supposed to help Rose with the uniforms for our homecoming routine." I didn't really want to be apart from him, but I had a job to do. "But, what are you doing later?" I asked.

He looked thoughtful for a moment he studied my face again. "I was wondering…." He finally spoke. "What kind of dress you were wearing to the homecoming dance?" He smiled while I just looked at him dumbstruck. "You know, so I can coordinate with you." He explained. "Really?" I jumped up and down and wrapped my arms around his neck giving him a big fat kiss on the lips. "Well, you are my girlfriend, aren't you?" He flashed his crooked smile at me making me melt where I stood. "Yeah, I guess I am." I grabbed his hand to pull him out of the room. He stopped me. "I need to shower and change. Remember?" He said as he looked down at his pants. "Oh, yeah, right, because of my mad skills." I patted him lightly on his wet spot as he groaned at my touch. "Bella. Please, don't go." He breathed.

Just as I was going to give in to Edward's 'invitation', Alice yelled my name. "Bella! You need to come out of there…..unless you want me to come in there after you!" She sang knowing what she would find. "I'd better go." I sped out of the door after I gave him a quick kiss on the lips.

"What's up?" I asked her innocently. "Right, like you don't remember that I can see these things." Alice winked. "Well, not everything." She corrected when I looked at her horrified. "Jeesh, Bella. Relax. I called you out here because I know you have to go pick up the dance uniforms with Rose. And I'm going with." She flashed her huge pixie smile. "Yeah, we need to get there soon because Emmett said the boys have something planned for us later." Rose beamed. "He is so sweet, and those muscles…" Rose started to daydream. "Snap out of it, sister. Let's go." Alice snapped her fingers. "That's funny, Edward didn't say anything about what we were doing later." I pondered. "That because it was supposed to be a surprise." Jasper came up from behind Alice and gave her a squeeze on the tush. "Don't be long, Emmett is busting at the seams already." He kissed her on the neck as she giggled.

"So, are you guys all better now?" Rose asked me as she sped off with us in tow to get the kick ass uniforms. At least that's what she had promised. "Uh, yeah, you could say that." I smirked. "I told him about my dreams." I said nonchalantly, hoping not to draw much attention to the subject. "Good." They said in unison. "Yeah, good." I repeated back and sunk back into my seat smiling about the memories of earlier with Edward.

"Oh my God! They are absolutely gorgeous!" Alice gushed when Rose held up the uniforms that we were going to wear to the homecoming game. "You have so way outdone yourself this time, Rose!" I added. The glittered top and skirt were the color of blood red. The top had quarter sleeves because it was getting a little cooler, but the hem was still just above the bellybutton. And the skirt's hem hit just below our asses, of course, to show our assets. Rose chose nude tights to wear under our bloomers knowing we would be outside most of the time. "I cannot wait to show this to Edward! Oops, I said that out loud, didn't I" I blushed. "You will show him when we show our men. At the game." Rose instructed. "Fine, but he will flip, and maybe I can get a little further past first base with him." Was I actually saying this out loud?

"You are becoming quite the siren, Bella Swan. I like it!" Rose commented, smiling so big that her teeth were all showing. "Ooooh, don't do that, Rose. You are giving me the chills." I shivered. "Just trying to bring your dreams to life." She joked. "Not this one, please." I begged. "Ok, ok. Let's get back so we can enjoy what the guys are planning." Rose said as we headed to the car.

As we were headed back to the house, I couldn't help but picture Edward, Jasper and Emmett wearing red Speedos, serving us dinner by candle light. Then I wondered what they were really planning for us, even though I hoped deep inside that it was, in fact, Speedos by candle light. I swore at that moment that Edward would no doubt be the death of me, or the rebirth, whichever would be the most fitting. But we will see….
