Broken Open
Chapter 12
JPOV
I can't believe I ran into Bella tonight of all nights while I was out with one of the band managers that I was signing.
And who the hell was she with and why was Alice and Dmitri with her?
I would have to ask my parent when I got back home tonight.
As they were leaving, the big guy kept a protective arm, around Bella's waist, I didn't like that at all.
I finished up dinner and the deal as quickly and politely as possible and we went our separate ways.
I went home and talked to my parents, they told me who the guys was and that made me feel somewhat better, although Bella didn't need ANYMORE guys protecting her, she had Edward up her ass all the time.
I decided to quit thinking about it and go to bed and go talk to her in the morning.
BPOV
I awoke to a pounding on the door; I had slept really well, considering I saw Jasper with his pregnant floozy, Felix had been a gentleman and I had a great time with him.
I opened the door, not sure who to expect at such an early hour.
I actually had a smile on my face, until I saw Jasper standing there with coffee and bagels.
"Bella, please don't slam the door in my face, we really need to talk without interruptions." he sighed.
"Fine." I motioned him in, I guess he was right, we hadn't talked about anything, I'd lost the baby and I hadn't considered how any of this had affected him.
"Thank you. Shall we sit in the kitchen?" he asked.
"How about the patio? It's more comfortable out there." I gave a small smile, that's where we always did our talking before.
"Look, Bella, last night, is not what it seems. The woman I was with is NOT the woman I slept with. I swear. She is one of the managers of the bands I'm signing, I promise. The lady I slept with was a redhead anyways. I know it doesn't make it any better, but I would never do that to you Bella. I still love you with every fiber of my being… I don't want this divorce! I won't sign the papers. They will collect dust, I swear to God! You and our children, are my life. I know I screwed up and I am eternally sorry. I promised I wouldn't drink and we fought and you wouldn't talk to me and whiskey was shoved at me and I jump at it. I have a problem. I swear from now on, all bands will come to us. I'll pay for it, we can afford it, we'll put on a few big shows a year or something. But I won't leave again like that and I won't go into a bar alone and pissed off again." he smiled at me and I could see the love and honesty there, but he still did it and I was still hurt.
"Jasper, I love that you're taking responsibility for your actions, but I can't do this right now. I won't file the papers right now, but I need time. You still lied and cheated on me and our family and that won't ever go away. I might be able to forgive one day, but I'll never forget. Please just give me space right now. We're going to remain legally separated. You can come get your things whenever and see your children at your parents whenever, but that's it for now. I can't offer anything else." I squeezed his hand and headed inside and upstairs before I lost it.
"Bella!" he called out.
I stopped halfway up the stairs.
"We still didn't discuss what happened, the miscarriage." he ran his hand through his hair.
"Jasper there isn't anything to discuss. I was stress and I lost our child. End of story. I'm getting help, I suggest you do the same, if you're struggling with it. Although you only knew for a few minutes and didn't seem to care." I ran to my room and slammed the door, sliding to the floor and crying, pulling out my phone and calling Alice.
"Ali. I need you." I sobbed.
She hung up and came over immediately.
Jasper must of left because there was no screaming when she arrived, she ran into my room and crawled into bed with me.
"Bells, what's wrong?" she asked stroking my hair.
I filled her in on my conversation with Jasper and not filing the papers and the baby, she brought me a pill and some water and told me to sleep, she'd be here when I woke.
I fell asleep and slept peacefully.
I awoke to laughing and giggling downstairs, I looked at the clock and it said 11:30am, I hopped in the shower, I'd slept for over 24 hours.
I went downstairs and there sat Edward, Edison, Dmitri and Felix playing Wii rockband and Alice was in the kitchen making lunch.
I walked into the living room and the boys paused the game, Edison came running to me and hugging me, giving me a big kiss, Edward following suit with a kiss to the forehead, Dmitri with a big hug and lastly, Felix walked up and gave me a big hug and whispered in my ear "You're adorable when you sleep. I checked on you around midnight and you were snoring softly and had pouty lips, so kissable, it was hard to resist." he kissed my ear and chuckled before releasing me and walking over to the game. Edward cocked an eye to me and I waved my hand, knowing I was blushing. I walked to the kitchen to help Alice.
"So, how you feeling?" she smiled.
"Rested." I smiled back.
"Why are you blushing?" she asked.
"Oh, Felix, he said he saw me sleeping last night." I smiled.
"Yeah, he agreed to take midnight shift and sat with you." Alice smiled.
"Gee, thanks friend." I said sarcastically.
"You know he really likes you." she smiled.
"Ali, I'm still married. I can't date. You're going to be legally separated." she sighed "Not dead!" she smiled.
"I know. I just… Uugghhh, He is really hot!" I smiled.
"Who's hot?" Dmitri inquired walking into the kitchen.
"You. You're really hot! I told Alice she lucked out with you!" I smiled.
"Yeah, O.K. sure, Izzy!" he smiled at me.
"It wouldn't have to do with a certain giant sporting a woody all morning until your son and guardian protector showed up, right?" Dmitri said.
"What?" I asked confused.
"Edward, he told Felix to stay away. You had enough drama. But clearly he didn't listen because he said something back there that got you going, that blush tells it all Izzy!" he smiled.
"Shut it, D!" I play snapped.
He chuckled and kissed Alice before leaving the kitchen again.
We had a great afternoon and to soon Edward left with Edison in tow, they were going clothes shopping tomorrow with Esme.
Jasper and Carlisle would have the twins and I would have one last day to relax before real life came crashing back.
I was cleaning the kitchen while the others watched sports.
I felt arms around my waist.
"Wow, this feels so good." Felix breathed into my neck.
"Felix, please." I tried to push him off.
He turned me around and looked down at me.
"Bella, tell me you don't feel anything and I'll leave you alone." he smiled.
"Felix. I do feel something, but I don't know what. My husband just cheated on me and I lost my baby, my feelings are all over the place, I'm a mess. I wouldn't mind exploring this, but it will have to be slow." I sighed and put my head down.
"Bella, that's fine, as long as I know you want to try. I'm good. I won't hurt you. Promise." he lifted my chin and kissed me. It was a soft sensual kiss.
A throat cleared and I jumped, it was Dmitri.
"Sorry, we've got to go, tux fitting early in the morning. Alice is kicking us out." he smiled.
"Bella, dinner tomorrow night?" he asked.
"Yeah, that'd be perfect, my last free night for two weeks." I smiled.
"I'll pick you up at 5pm. Dress sexy." he smiled.
I nodded and Alice was beside me bouncing, hugging Dmitri.
"Don't worry, she will be dressed, very sexy Felix, I'll see to it." she smiled.
Felix shook his head and Dmitri smirked patting his back and said, "You're in so much trouble."
"No shit." Felix mumbled as they got into Dmitri's Hummer.
Alice shut the door and let out a loud squeal.
"We've got to go shopping. This calls for NEW sexy, Felix sexy, NOT Jasper sexy!" she smiled.
We grabbed out things and left for the hated mall and wondering what the hell I'd gotten myself into.
