Chapter 12- Breakfast with My Family

I wake up at 5:30. I get up and stumble around my room still half asleep. I look through my closet to pick out an outfit for the day. I finally decide to where my black leggings under my short shorts with a blue top and jean jacket. I go down stairs to wait for Bella and tell my parents she's coming over for breakfast. I walk into the living room and sit down on the couch next to Jasper. He turns on the tv and we start watching teenage mutant ninja turtles on the nickalodean channel. I hear the doorbell ring and run to answer it. I open the door to see Bella smiling. She comes inside and gives me a kiss on the cheek. She turns around and introduces herself to my parents. I had already told them we were dating and they were happy. I take Bella's hand and bring her into the living room to meet Jasper. He stands up and holds out his hand.

"hey Bella, I've heard a lot about you." he says smiling. We sit on the couch and watch tv until breakfast is ready. We all sit down at the kitchen table. I sit in between Bella and Jasper. My parents sit next to each other across from us. I look down at the French toast on my plate and grab the brown sugar. Bella chuckles.

"I thought I was the only one who eats it that way." she says gesturing to the brown sugar that I spread all over my French toast. Jasper and I shake our heads. I hand the brown sugar to Bella then to Jasper. My parents smile from across the table taking the maple syrup and put it on their food.

"so Bella, we've heard so much about you. Carlisle and I were wondering if your parents would like to have dinner with us sometime." I hear my mom say and notice Bella flinch when she says parents. Bella looks up from her food and smiles.

"my dad would love to come over any night he doesn't have to work." she says politely. I look at my mom and see gears turning in her head, but I guess she still had to ask.

"and what about your mother dear?" she asks. Bella and I both wince at that. I had found out Bella's mom died of cancer when she was five. I forgot to mention it to my parents that she only has her dad. I look at Bella wondering if I should say something. She shakes her head at me and turns back to my mother.

"I'm sure she would've loved to if she could." Bella pauses and her eyes drop for a moment before looking at her again. "but she can't, she died a long time ago." she says with a blank expression. I see my moms face fill with regret.

"oh I'm so sorry to hear that dear." is all she can manage to say. Bella nods and smiles.

"Thank you, but it's fine I still have my dad and my friends so I'll survive." she says trying to reassure her. She nods and we all go back to eating. When we were done our breakfast I ask if she needs help doing dishes. My mom shakes her head and I join Bella and Jasper in the living room. We watch teenage mutant ninja turtles until 7 and we grab our stuff to leave. Bella thanks my parents for breakfast and we head out the door. I get on Bella's motorcycle as Jasper jokes about racing to school. Bella chuckles and shakes her head.

"not with her on the back." she says gesturing to me. I give her a pout but she says no. "maybe another time jazz" she says and I laugh at the nickname. I call him that. They start up the bikes and Bella follows Jasper to the school. We meet up with the boys in the parking lot as usual. Bella and I do our handshake with them. I see Jake staring at Jasper.

"so you're Ali's older brother?" jake says smiling at him. He puts out a hand. Jasper smiles and shakes his hand. He looks them all up an down before turning back to Jake.

"your name's Jake right?" he asks. Jake nods and chuckles. "Ali's told me about you guys." he says gesturing to them. I told him they were my group. I wonder if they'll accept him in to. I hope so.

Jake turns to Bella and I.

"it's Friday." he states. Bella chuckles and nods. I quirk an eyebrow at them. It was probably an inside joke they hadn't told me about yet. "are we good for the usual?" he asks. Bella shrugs.

"I don't know." she says casually then looks at Jasper and I. "you guys up for it?" she asks us.

"up for what?" jasper asks curiously. They all smile. Jake takes a step closer and gestures for us to come closer so the people around us won't hear what he's about to say.

"slumber party." he says smiling. I can tell he's trying not to laugh. The others can't help it and start laughing loudly. Jasper gives them a weird look and glances at me to see if they're kidding. I shrug my shoulders and look back to them.

"every friday night we go to the diner in town and get pizzas and icecream then head back to our house for a sleepover." Emmett explains. I nod and look at Jasper. I wanted to go, but I also wanted him to be apart of the group. Jasper's always been my best friend and he doesn't talk to anyone at school. Jasper nods but stays quiet. Emmett frowns. "so can you guys come tonight or what?" he asks. I look from him to Jasper.

"both of us?" I ask. They all nod. "you up for it Jazz?" I ask Turing to him. He smiles.

"let's go, not like we have anything better to do." he laughs. They all howl including me and we laugh as we walk towards the school. We say bye to Jasper and go to homeroom. We were a little early so we could talk longer.

"what should we bring for tonight?" I ask Jake.

"pj's, extra clothes for the morning, you know basically anything you want. And since tomorrow's Saturday we can stay up late and still hang out all day tomorrow too. You guys don't have plans for tomorrow right?" he asks. I shake my head and smile. It sounds like a lot of fun.

"thanks for inviting Jasper." I say gratefully. I would've felt awful if only I were aloud to come. Jake nods and blushes a little.

"he seems cool, and you said you're like best friends with him. Like if someone invited Bella somewhere I'd wanna go too ya know?" he says shrugging. I nod and chuckle. If I didn't know any better I would think Jake had a crush on him. I would bash him about it but Mr. B walks in right as I open my mouth to say something. I remember hearing him talk for five minutes and then hearing the bell ring at the end of the period but I fell asleep in between. It's not that I'm always tired, it's more like I'm always bored. If there's no work to do and I'm not talking or scribbling I fall asleep. Good thing Bella lets me use her notes. In fact I think I remember her say she only takes them so she doesn't fall asleep. I smile to myself at the thought of her sleeping during class. That would be adorable. I slept through my other 3 classes and felt hyper by lunch. I get in line with Bella and we both get the same thing. We sit down at our table and wait for the boys to all sit down. We talk about tonight and what we're gonna do. As I understand we all go to Jakes house after school and hang out at the hideout for a while. Then at 5 go home, get ready, then meet at the diner at 6. We eat pizza and icecream and talk. We go to edward and Emmett's house and basically stay up late watching movies. Then we wake up late Saturday morning, go to the diner for breakfast, then go to Jake's house and hang out until night time. I also understand Sunday is kinda like catch up day; since we are going to be hanging out almost everyday after school plus Saturday we are gonna need a whole day to do all the homework we skipped to hangout. In my case that's good because after hanging out with the group all day and coming home at night all I wanna do is take a shower and fall asleep. Great, this is going to be awesome, I think before heading to my next class.
