Sorry I haven't updated in so long!

I listened to Bella sob all night and I felt miserable knowing that I caused her to cry. I tried to knock on her door, but I'd always get the same reply: Go away, Edward!
It's a Saturday morning and I'm fixing Bella's favorite breakfast foods: chocolate pancakes, scrambled eggs, bacon, sausage links, toast with grape jelly, and her favorite breakfast shake. (Strawberry banana surprise. The surprise is a little coconut and some cherries.) It's sort of like an 'I'm sorry' breakfast.
"Bella," I call, hopefully. "Breakfast time!"
I hear her huff. "I'm not hungry!" She yells.
I cringe at her tone of voice. Yup, she's royally pissed off. It's going to take a lot more than a simple breakfast and an 'I'm sorry' to make her forgive me.
"I made all of your favorites!"
Her stomach rumbles and I smile. I have her exactly where I want her.
Still, she doesn't give in. "I'm not hungry!" She yells again.
"Don't lie to me! I hear your stomach rumbling! Now, get down here and eat this food!"
"No!"
Dang! She's so stubborn! "Yes! Right now, young lady!"
"BITE ME!" I chuckled at the irony of her words.
"Bella, please. Come down here."
"No, Jerkward! Back off!"
I gasped. She's never said anything like this to me before. What's next? "I hate you?"
"Isabella Marie Swan Cullen, you will not talk to me that way! I demand respect." I was trying to act authoritative, so that she knows who's in charge. Apparently, it's not working.
"I'll give you my respect when you let me be friends with Jake!" Jake? I thought it was Jacob? Did she give him a nickname like she does to me?
"Bells, pleaseā¦Just come down."
No reply. I put the plate of sausage links down on the kitchen table and walked upstairs to her room.
When I softly knocked on her door, I heard the same reply again: "Go away!"
I sighed and rested my forehead on her door. "Bells," I said softly. I knew she could hear me, but again she didn't reply.
"Bells," I said more strongly. "You have to understand that I just want you to be happy and safe. I love you so much and I'm very overprotective, so of course I'm going to act this way. Look, how about I make you a deal?"
Still no reply, but I continued on. "I'll let you see Jacob and he can even come over here, but in return I want you to still spend some time with me. Please?" I whispered the last part, brokenly.
The door knob turned and Bella peeked out at me with her red and puffy eyes. Again, I feel like such a monster causing my angel pain.
Suddenly, she smiled at me. "Alright, I accept your condition, but you should have asked for something else in return you know?" I looked at her confused, but happy nonetheless.
"What do you mean angel?"
She grinned at me. "I still would have hanged out with you, even though I have a new best friend, it doesn't mean that I'll stop spending time with you. It just means that you two will have to share me! I'm sorry for saying all that mean stuff. I love you!"
I grinned, picked her up and started swinging her around.
"I love you, too angel. And apology accepted. I'm sorry for acting like a jerk."
"It's okay, I forgive you. Now, there's just one more thing to take care of," She said seriously.
At my questioning glance she explained. "It's time for breakfast! I just hope that you're a better cook than Emmett."
I laughed. "Well, I did have some help from the food networking channel!"
"Cheater," She mumbled against my shirt.
I raised my eyebrows. "Would you rather have explosive cookie dough?"
She grimaced. "On second thought, there's nothing wrong with following Rachel Ray's instructions."
"That's what I thought!"
Sorry for the blandness. I'm really really tired right now. I only got two hours of sleep!
Please Review, though!
