Family Supper

"What are you smirking at?"

I whipped my head around from my daze, only to find Edward standing over me with his head cocked to the side. And to think I was just smiling to myself like an idiot.

"Erm, nothing! I was just… wonder where Alice was!"

"I'm right here, behind you, Bella…" Alice said from the kitchen.

"You think she hit her head when she fell?" Emmett said, smiling impishly at me.

"As a matter of fact, I did!" I answered, sticking my nose in the air.

"BWAHAHA!" Emmett laughed loudly from the corner.

Ugh! I was getting off topic!

"An-Anyways! Alice! May I look up something on your computer?" I asked quickly.

"Ok. What of?" She question as she skipped to the stairs.

"Oh… I um… wanted to video chat with Charlie…" Curses to my horrible lying…

"Pfft! Charlie knows how to video chat?" Alice asked incredulously.

"Yeah," I chuckled, following her to her room. "Beats talking on the phone, you know, we get to see eachother… face to face… it's like we're really there in the same room and…"

"Bella… I get it."

"Right, well um.. let me just… yeah."

"Ha.. Ok Bella." She turned to leave.

"Oh! And Alice!"

"Yeah?"

"Could you please give me your dad's number? Charlie wanted it.."

"Sure…"

She took out a piece of paper and a fluffy pen and wrote the number down.

"Thank you!"

"No problem, Bella!"

She left the room and closed the door behind her.

Thanks Alice!

Quickly, I went on and typed in police sirens. I looked through videos pages of videos and cranked up the volume when I found the one I liked best (which included the voices of thungs in the background and everything). Then I took out my phone and called Carlisle.

Just when I heard him answer his phone, I played the vid.

"Hello-?"

"Carlisle!" I whispered urgently, my voice shook.

"Bella? Bella, what's that noise?"

"Carlisle! You need to come back right now!"

"Wh-? What's going-?"

"Some thugs broke into the house! The police are already here but! They've taken us hostage! They say they only want to negotiate with you! Please…"

Loud gun shots came from the computer and I heard Carlisle's breathing stop.

Oh shit.

Now that could get me in trouble…

"Umm…" I began, my resolve wavering.

Then, as if on cue, one of the thugs screamed,

"STAY DOWN! JUST STAY DOWN BITCH!"

Shit, Shit, Shit, Shit, Shit, SHIT!

"U-Umm…" I started again, deciding to instead just say this was all just a sick prank to get him back home. But my ears were greeted by the long, unwavering, dial tone…..

….

….

Your call has been disconnected-

…

…

…

I just lied to a doctor.

….

….

AHHHHHHHHH!

I exited out of the site and ran to the door. Just as I opened it, I slammed into Alice.

"OOF! B- Bella! What's going on? I thought I heard police sirens!" She exclaimed.

"SHH! It uh… It was Charlie! He… he…"

"He?"

"Erm…was… watching a police show on T.V.!"

"Oh really? I love those types of shows! Which channel was it on?" She exclaimed brightly.

"…Elev…en… eight…y…forty five…."

"Eleven- Eighty- …Forty five, you say?" She raised an eyebrow skeptically.

"Umm…"

"YO CHICKS! TIME TO MAKE SOME YUMMY YUMMY SOUNDS! THE FOOD IS READY!"

….Yeah, you know who that was.

Alice sighed.

"Common, lets go!" She chirped. But to me, her voice sounded a bit off, sadder. So I jumped in front of her and put on my best personality.

"Don't worry Alice! Everything will turn out ok!" I smiled.

She paused with a shocked expression. Just staring at me.

Hmm… maybe I misread the situation?

"…Thanks, Bella…" she grinned, as she began to make her way downstairs.

I followed, and from the corner of my eye, I thought I saw a dark figure at the end of the hall near Edward's room, facing our direction.

I looked at it for a second before Alice called for me, noticing how it looked like it had its hands in fists… Was that Edward?

"Bella?"

"Oh… right…"

We finally made it to the kitchen.

"Come girls, lets eat in the dining room, since Emmett is back." She smiled.

We followed, but not before we heard the front door slam. Loudly.

I began to panic.

That had to be Carlisle!

I turned around in time to see an upset Edward and Emmett enter the room.

"Man, I told you she was nuts."

"Let it go Emmett!" Edward said furiously.

"What's wrong?" I asked, worried. I didn't like seeing Edward upset.

"Nothing… It's… Nothing…" He murmured to the floor.

"That chick Tia-"

"TANYA!" Edward roared.

"WHAT EVER!" Emmett boomed back. "GEEZ! Anyways, she just stormed out…"

I froze…

"Edward…" I whispered

"I have no clue what you see in her, bro."

"Just drop it Emmett! Seriously!"

"Edward…"

"Boys! Stop fighting!" Esme said sternly.

"Edward..." Finally I got his attention.

"Yes, Bella? What is it?" He asked, a little frustrated.

"Was that you, I saw. Standing at the end of the hallway?" I tried my best to control my voice.

"No, what are you talking about?"

"I… I just wondered…"

"Right… Well any-"

"ANYWAYS!" Alice exclaimed over Edward, "LETS EAT!"

I walked over to the table and quickly sat down.

Shit.

That was Tanya..

That was Tanya at the end of the hall. Watching me being all buddy buddy with Alice. Something she most definitely did not want to have happen, next to me getting along with Edward of course…

But why was she here?

I mean… Yeah this was her boyfriend's house, but, what was it that she wanted?

"Bella?"

I looked to see Edward staring at me quizzically.

"Y-Yes?"

"What's wrong? You look like you've just seen a gho-"

BAM!

Everyone jumped when the garage door slammed open.

"What the-?" Alice began.

I looked around and noticed that Emmett was out of his seat with his table fork in his hand, ready to defend.

"ESME?"

Oh yeah.!

"ALICE?"

That's right!

"EMMETT?"

Carlisle!

"EDWARD?"

"DAD?" Emmett called loudly, lowering the fork. Slightly.

A tired and very shaken up looking came running into the dining room, franticly looking around.

"Hun?" Esme began, worried, "What's wrong?"

"I…I don't get it…" Mr. Cullen started off, dazed. "Wh- Where are they? Did they leave!"

"Dad, who are you talking about?" Edward asked, confused.

"An- And the police cars? Where… Where did they go?"

Everyone looked at him like he was crazy.

"Mom… I think Pops has been sniffin' a bit too much morphine…" Emmett whispered.

"N-NO! It.. It's just that…Bell-"

Uh Oh!

"UM! Oh! How nice Mr. Cullen! You've come back for dinner with the family!" I exclaimed happily.

"Here! Lets go get you a plate shall we?" I asked sweetly as I ushered him to the kitchen.

When we were there he turned to me.

"Bella! What's going on? Why on Earth did you tell me that…that thugs had entered our home and-?"

"BECAUSE!" I started loudly. "They needed you."

"What?"

I sighed. How was I suppose to explain this? I didn't even really completely understand it myself!

"Mr. Cullen. I understand that you are very busy. That you have to work, that you have to help make ends meet, but, you are making them meet in the wrong places!"

"What?"

"Mr. Cullen, financially, as far as I know, you are making ends meet, correct?"

"Well… yes, but-"

"But?" I asked, "You have a beautiful home,"

"Yes-"

"You're able to buy pricey cars,"

"Wel… yes but-"

"Clothes for your family,"

"I know but-"

"And allow Alice go on the occasional five hundred dollar shopping spree? And all you can say to me is but?" I questioned. "Mr. Cullen, to finish your but statement, I think it would go something like… 'But, I want more…' Right?"

He looked down and away from me.

I smiled.

"Mr. Cullen, you can find another job, but you can't find another family. You make ends meet with your job, you go the extra distance, but, what about your family? What bout Edward, Alice, and Emmett? Esme? They are all reaching out to you. They want to be with you! All together. As a family! I know you know that. It's why you couldn't look at anyone directly in the eye when you left, isn't it?"

Slowly, he nodded his head.

"They need you, Mr. Cullen… No one else."

Again, he nodded, faster this time.

"…Just wondering… when was the last time you had dinner with your entire family? Emmett included I mean."

"…Two… Two years…" He grimaced.

"Let's not go for three, hmm?" I smiled up at him.

"Oh! The plate!" I exclaimed. "We have to hurry up and get you back to the dining room! Everyone's waiting!"

"Bell-"

"Common!" I smiled widely.

"…Haha! Ok, coming." He grinned back as he took off his jacket.

I briskly began walking to the dining room but almost bumped in to someone.

"Oh.. Sorr… Edward?" Oh geez… did he just hear our whole conversation?

"Oh…erm… sorry… I was just… going to get some more napkins…" He muttered.

"Right, well.. see you at the table…" I began to walk away, but, suddenly, he grabbed my hand to stop me.

Without turning to me, he mumbled something and then walked off.

…Strange…

I came back to the table and set the plate down next to Esme.

"Thankyou, Dear." She smiled as Mr. Cullen took his seat.

"Hey Bella!" Alice chirped happily, the light back in her eyes now, "Sit next to me!"

"AW! I wanted to sit next to her!" Emmett pouted.

"No way! You eat like a pig! There'll be more food in her hair that in her stomach!" Alice piped back.

"Um…Bella," Edward said from behind me, I twirled around, "It, um.. might be best if you sit next to me. You know, safety."

I looked back over at Emmett and Alice, who were bickering violently back and forth, and shivered slightly.

"I would love to!" I said quickly.

He gave his signature crooked smile and led me to my seat, pulling it out for me.

"AW! HE'S THE PERFECT GENTALMAN!" Emmett boomed as he popped a bread roll into his mouth.

"HA! At least I raised one right!" Esme scoffed playfully.

"HEY! Waddabout me!" Alice cried.

"I think your father had the most to do with you…" Esme said thoughtfully.

"Hey, don't drag me into that hole." Carlisle smiled.

"WHOA WHOA WHOA! Are you guys like, even my real parents?" Emmett exclaimed. "Who the hell raised me?"

"Language!"

"You know, I'm pretty sure I saw a baby picture of you inside the cage with a gorilla family at the zoo…" Edward said coolly.

"Hey! Those are my favorite animals!"

"Exactly."

The conversation went along, and everyone was smiling and laughing with one another.

I smiled to myself and scooted down a bit from them.

It was so bright.

They were all so bright.

If only my life could be like theirs… they didn't know how lucky they were… how unfair it was…

They didn't know.

I jerked straight in my seat when it began to slide across the floor.

Edward was pulling me closer to him, closing the distance so that our arms were touching.

"You don't need to be so far away," He whispered, "You're a part of this to."

"How." It wasn't even a question. How could I possibly be a part of this happiness? Of this light?

"Because you brought us together, Bella… Something me, or Alice, or Emmett or even Esme could never do before."

"I… um…"

I felt a sudden warm around my hand, and noticed that he was clutching it in his.

Edward Cullen was holding my hand.

"Thank you." He said in a low whisper.

Ah… he knew.

I smiled and looked at him.

"No problem, Edward."

"….What's goin' on over there? Somethin' ya wanna share with the rest of the table? Hmm?" Emmett called.

"Ugh! Emmett! Just eat your food and head back to the zoo!" Edward exclaimed.

We all laughed and the conversation picked up.

With me in it.

X-X-X-X-X

OK, I literally started crying when I wrote the part with Edward and Bella whispering at the table! I don't know, I guess because I can relate to Bella? Idk…

But anyways! I was wondering… What's your favorite "ALICE!" moment?
