Hey Guys! Thank you for the amount of reviews I received last chapter. I enjoyed them all. Now in this chapter. Things between Edward and Bella are intense. So look at. But there is also some shock in it. I hope it surprises you all. I dont want to say much but this is a longer chapter than usually. So ENJOY!
I dont own Twilight, sadly. :(

Chapter 12
BPOV
"As you can see Bella, this is the kitchen," Esme showed me this huge kitchen that held 2 refrigerators, an oven, stove, 2 microwaves, a 5 seat bar. Also an island that had pots and pans hanging over it from the ceiling. As I said earlier, Mafia. They are always rich.
"Mmmh. What smells so good?" I asked Esme as I skimmed my fingers across the granite counter tops.
"Chicken and pastry is for dinner. I thought would be suitable since it was so cold. Now come along, dear. We have to fix the salads in a little while and we need to look at the house," Esme ushered me out of the kitchen and into the same living room we were in earlier. It had a leather couch and the room had a blue and white theme.
"This room looks beautiful, Esme," I said looking at the entertainment system which held many CDs, DVDs, and video games. She pulled me up the stairs and we looked out the glass windows.
"Well you know, I am an interior designer," She gushed and we got to the top of the stairs and pulled me down the hall ways. Showing me various pictures. She showed me the Library, Emmet and Rose's room, Lilly's room, Alice and Jasper's room, we passed Carlise's office on the 3rd floor. Then on the 4th floor was Edward's room but we didn't go in there because Edward wanted to show me his room.
We went back to the stairs where Carlisle and Edward were at and Edward instantly held my hand in a deathly grip and I whimpered a little but he pulled me close so I couldn't get away, wrapping his arms around my waist.
"Thanks for showing Bella around, Mom," Edward thanked Esme as he walked me up the next set of stairs, walking to the 4th floor. "You behaved right?"
I looked at him and said "Yes, yes I did Edward," coldly and we walked down the long hallway.
"Don't act that way, Bella just because you didn't get your way earlier. Now this is my bedroom," He said opening a door that revealed a massive bedroom with a king four poster bed with a bunch of pillows and the room had a red and gold theme. Then against the north wall was a Balcony that over viewed the back door garden and then there was a huge bookshelf with music and books. Then there was a hot tub in the bath room with 2 sinks and a shower.
I looked around stunned for a moment while Edward walked ahead and started unpacking our clothes while I jumped on the bed and grabbed the TV remote and turned on the TV but Edward grabbed the remote out of my hand and turned the TV back off.
"What the heck, Edward?" I almost yelled at him but restrained myself he was really bothering me and wasn't doing what he said he would.
"Go help Mom with the salad, Bella,"He ordered to me coldly and I lost it.
"Edward, you said you were going to change! You aren't! When are you going to change?" I yelled at him and stormed out onto the balcony and shut the door in his face and fell into one of the lounge chairs and pulled my legs to my chest and started weeping. I want to just go home and be free of all this! I am sick of it!
"Bella, look I'm sorry. So sorry. Please forgive me," I heard a quiet voice behind me and something touch my arm and I felt myself being lifted and set down. I cried harder and harder and the quiet voice soothed me as I hugged them close only to find out it was Edward and pulled away a little.
"I am so sorry, Bella. Your right I haven't been doing my part lately. Please forgive me," He begged me rubbing circles in my small back that sent electrical charges through it.
I stopped crying and looked at Edward. "Promise you wont spank me anymore. Can I drive?" I asked in a small voice.
"I promise I wont spank you anymore and I don't know. Not yet, Bella," He said quietly. "Soon."
I nodded and he carried me inside and sat me on the bed and walked to the bathroom. Walked out with a wash clothe, he kneeled in front of me and started to wash off my dried tears. He was leaning closer and closer to me, so close I could feel his warm breath on my neck. I was looking him dead in the eye.
(I got this part inspired by Twilight because of Edward and Bella's first kiss. Remember?)
"Bella, stay still for just 1 second," He whispered in my ear before kissing me passionately in the lips. I felt love not force. It was so much better than force.
He grabbed my waist, because we were in a full make out session. He pulled me up so I was fully on to the bed and wrapped my legs around his waist as I knotted my fingers in his messy hair as we laid in the pillows.
After 10 minutes we were both heavily panting for air and he placed small kisses on the sides of my face and all over my neck and arms.
"*kiss* Am *kiss* I *kiss* forgiven? *kiss*?" He asked as I unwrapped my legs from around his waist and he rolled over from on top of me.
"Of *kiss* course," I said with a kiss on his chest and laid my head on his chest for a few minutes as Edward played with my hair. I didn't think I should say it. I really do love him but I don't want to admit it. What should I do.
There was a knock on the door and a loud voice afterwards. "You two aren't doing anything bad, are you?" The voice happened to be Emmet.
"What do you want Emmet?" Edward groaned sitting up and pulled me into his lap and kissed my hair.
"Mom said to come on down. She and Rose need Bella's help with dinner," He said through the door and I stifled a laugh on how he had to talk through a door.
"Tell her that we will be down in 10 minutes," Edward said in his business voice and kissed my hair again and I giggled.
"Be nice in there, Eddie. See ya down stairs, Bro," Emmet said and he left.
"I wish we could stay in here longer, Darling, but we need to go down stairs. Here let me take your coat since you haven't taken it off yet. Now go straighten yourself up," He said in a playful but yet orderly voice and I listened. He took my coat and I walked to the bathroom and made sure my hair was in order and there was no wrinkles in my outfit.
"Ready now?" He asked wrapping his arms around my waist.
"Yep," I said in a happy voice and he and I walked down the stairs, hand and hand, smiling, and to the living room. My hand was hurting a little but not badly hurting.
When we got into the living room, Emmet was on the floor with Lily playing with some of her toys while Carlisle read some papers that he had in his hands. A really thick pile of them too. Mafia business. Psh.
"Auntie Bella, Uncle Edward!"Lily screamed and jumped up and ran into Edward's arms and he picked her up. She hugged him and kissed him on the cheek. She held her hands out to me so I could take her into my arms but Edward took a step away.
"Lily, Aunt Bella cant hold you because she hurt her hand. It will hurt her more if she holds you," Edward said in a child like voice and kissed her on the nose. He was such a good uncle.
"Sorry, Lily Pop," I said, using my nickname for her and popping my finger on her nose causing her to giggle. "Edward I am going to go help your mom."
"Ok, Honey. I will be in here if you need me," He sat Lily back on the ground and kissed me on the forehead.
I walked to the kitchen to see Rosalie and Esme busying themselves. "Rose," I exclaimed getting her attention and she looked up.
"Bella. How are you?" Rosalie asked with a hug and Esme gave me a stack of plates to set the table up with.
"Im good. Thanks for asking," I said to her and smiled.
"I trust everything is better between you and Edward, Bella. I hope you don't mind but I told Rosalie about you and Edward commotion and all," Esme said filling cups with ice.
"No I don't mind. Yes everything is alright between us. We made up and we are even better than before," I said happily and they laughed with a bunch of 'goods'
"I told you he would turn himself around, Bella," Alice appeared through the door. I laughed.
"I know, he did. Did you hear the whole conversation?" I asked laughing as I shifted with the plates.
"I heard from Esme's spot," She started, telling me she heard that much.
"Im gonna go set the table now," I said and walked to the dining room which was beautiful which may I add.
I quietly sat the table when I was frightened by a pair of arms go around my waist. " Do I even have to say how sexy you look, setting this table?" He said which made me shiver and I turned around.
He kissed me passionately and I wrapped my hands around his neck and he stroked my face with his finger tips while pulling me up onto his toes.
He finally released me and let me go back to the kitchen and work. I continued to set up .
Once all the food was ready we all sat down at the table. Carlisle at the head, Esme on one side, then Jasper, Alice, Emmet, Lily at the other head, Rosalie beside her, Then Edward, and me beside Carlisle. Carlisle has always scared me because do you know what his job is *cough* Mafia Boss*cough, cough* Just incase you didn't know.
We ate our food while Emmet and Carlisle started talking about something, But the whole time we were at the table, Edwards hand was on my thigh the whole time. It was very weird. Don't you dare say IT Bella and by 'IT' I mean I love you. Uh why was this so frustrating!
"Um, Mom, Dad, " Jasper coughed and everyone looked at him. "Alice and I have some thing to give to you."
Everyone watched Alice pull out a little card and handed it to Esme and Carlisle.
Carlisle opened it and they both read it and Esme screamed. "Whats wrong!" Emmet and Edward panicked as Lily continued to eat her soup as if nothing had happened. Carlisle secretly handed me the card and I opened it and it read…..
Congrats! Your GRANDPARENTS!
I looked at Alice with Edward trying to pear over my should but I wouldn't let him. "O my Gosh! Mary Alice Cullen, Your PREGNANT!"
Everyone else and by that I meant Rose, Emmet, and Edward, gasped and Alice about exploded.
"Alice, how far along are you?" Esme asked as we all looked at the hyper pixie bounced up and down until Jasper told her to calm down.
"9 weeks, Esme," Alice confirmed her and Jasper looked around. He was really happy and I could tell.
"How long have you known that your pregnant, Alice?" Rosalie quizzed her with her 'tell me or your dead' look. I felt something squeeze me and I jumped and it happened that Edward had squeezed my thigh. I gave his hand a slap and refocused.
"Well, Jasper and I just found out last night," Alice said with Jasper rubbing her arm.
"What happened?" Carlisle asked. I felt bad for them having to go through all this but who wasn't happy, they are going to have a wonderful child and I will have a wonderful nephew/niece.
"Well when Alice got home yesterday, she wasn't feeling well. I thought it was just stress on her from the Spa day but she told me that she hadn't been feeling well all day. So I took her to the Emergency Room around 7pm, I didn't call any of yall because I didn't feel it was urgent enough and it was just the stomach virus. But we were there for the next 2 hours while the doctors had to figure it out and it turns out she is pregnant," Jasper said in his southern accent and we all looked at Alice who was looking at the ceiling fan, amused by it.
"Before we go any farther, why don't we move to the living room?" Esme said and everyone nodded and followed her there. Edwards arm stuck to my waist like glue, I think he was happy when we were able to sit closer together when we were on the couch.
"So that's why you weren't your usual hyper/annoying self yesterday, Alice?" I exclaimed as Jasper and Alice sat on the couch and Jasper had his arm draped around Alice and his hand on her stomach as if they were protecting the child.
"thanks Bella but yes. I wasn't feeling well," Alice groaned and Jasper continued for her.
"The Doctor said it was normal for her to have morning sickness and side effects like that. We have to keep her hydrated. Not dehydrated. Hydrated," Jasper said. They must really be worried about this child.
"Whens the due date, Alice?" Rosalie asked as she and Emmet were snuggling with Lily in their lap almost asleep on the Love seat.
"July 6th but they want the baby to be earlier. If it hasn't come by July 6th, they will induce me or they will talk about it. Jazz and I aren't entirely sure yet. But we are going back after Christmas to get a better look of things, right, Jazzy Jazz?" Alice asked and he nodded.
"Yes, Pumpkin. Bella or Rosalie would either of you mind coming and working with Alice in her shop. I don't fell comfortable with her working by herself now. Even though she has employees but she still needs some one else," Jasper asked and I looked at Edward. Did I mention that Alice owns her own Alice's Boutique. Well she does run her own fashion line and make up and monogramming things.
"I would like to go work, Edward?" I asked Edward and he looked uncertain.
"Bella, we need to talk about it before we decide or not, so Jasper, we will get back to you on that. I am not sure if I want Bella out there," Edward said rubbing circles in my thigh. I wanna go so badly. Jasper nodded.
Then Esme, Rosalie, and Alice started discussing things for the baby and all. Then entire night I caught Emmet, Carlisle, Jasper, and Edward giving weird looks to each other when they thought I wasn't looking. But then when 10pm rolls around and Rosalie and Lily have already headed to bed, I yawn.
"Well, Mom, Dad, Jasper, Alice, and Emmet, Bella and I are heading to bed," Edward said and helping me stand and I pointed to my hand which was hurting.
"Ya, Alice lets get you to bed too," Jasper said picking up the tiny, already sleeping, pregnant Alice off the couch and saying goodnight and headed upstairs. I followed Edward to the kitchen and he have me some medicine for my hand.
We went back to his room and I changed into a pale yellow night gown and crawled under the comforter. Edward slipped under and wrapped his arms around my waist and pulled me close.
"Are you sure you want to go work with Alice at her Boutique?" Edward asked me and I could tell his voice was strain. I turned around to him.
"Edward, why are you so worried about this?" I asked planting small kisses on his neck.
"because," He started but gave up and hung his chin down.
"Because why, don't be giving up on me," I said lifting up his chin and giving his nose a small peck.
"Because, when ever a woman in the Cullen family joins or becomes pregnant, the ememies come out and actually do stuff. You can ask Esme, when she was pregnant with Emmet, some one broke into the house when she was the only person home," Edward said and his jaw was clenched tight. "You don't realize how much danger you and Alice are in. My father, Jasper, Emmet, and I will probably be reassigning positions for our crew now. Set up heavy protection for you and Alice. You don't-," Edward rambled but I cut him off by rolling on top of him on the bed and kissing him passionately.
"Now, are we calm now?" I asked him 15 minutes later. He nodded stifflily. I traced the lines of his muscle that formed a V on his chest, kissed every spot until I fell asleep with him playing with my hair….
