CHAPTER 21
(Previously)
The first thing I saw was her shoes. She was wearing a pair of peep toe patented black platform heels. I could see her hot pink nail polish sticking out. I continued to look her legs and I saw she was a pair of charcoal colored leather hot pants. FUCK! As the rest of her became more visible she was wearing a ruche black one shoulder shirt with a rose broche. The outfit was so her. She was what you would call "Rocker Chic" I hope that's right I saw it on one of those entertainment shows on TV. Her hair was set in loose curls. In her hair I noticed she had on some hot pink extensions on around her hair.
She looked fucking hot. I am having second thoughts on going out tonight. There's going to be trouble tonight. I can already tell.
(BPOV)
"Boys you both need to close your mouths before you collect flies."
I looked over to my family and there were so many expressions on their faces I couldn't control my laughter.
My big brother looked annoyed.
Rosalie looked a little smug. I think she did a great job with my outfit. She chose exactly what I would pick. I was comfortable in this outfit. She let me be me. Unlike the evil midget I would have been put into something I totally would have felt uncomfortable in.
Something is not right with Alice, but now is not the time to think about it.
I looked over to my men and they still had their mouths open.
I noticed that Rose dressed them up in similar colors to what I was wearing. Jasper had a charcoal colored button up shirt with the sleeves rolled up and dark distressed jeans that looked too worn and a shiny belt buckle with a pair of charcoal colored cowboy boots.
FUCK! He looked hot as hell. The jeans looked great on that fine ass. They weren't too tight, but were tight enough to grab any woman's attention.
A low growl started to build in my chest. No woman better get near my men. Or there will be hell to pay.
I looked over to Peter and he had on a similar outfit to Jasper's, but his shirt was black and he had on a pair of black boots.
Son of a fucking bitch! No one and I mean no one better come onto my men.
I went up to both of them and they each took me in their arms. Peter on my left and Jasper on my right. They each nuzzled themselves in crook of my neck inhaling my scent. I heard their purr of satisfaction. If I was wearing any panties they would be already soaked, but since I am not then this might be interesting.
Their purring increased and they inhaled my scent in more.
"Alright already your scent is already all over her! I don't want to see you guys humping my sissy's leg." Emmett quickly said and became an instant cock blocker.
Both of my boys gave a low growl.
"The limo should be here in the next twenty minutes. So that gives us enough time to call Mom and Dad." Emmett bellowed out.
"What limo? I didn't order a limo." I looked over to my boys and Peter had that cocky smirk on his face.
"What the hell did you do cowboy?"
I looked over and he at least had the decency to look a little ashamed.
"Well darlin', I figured since we are all going to the same place after all and who knows who is going to drink and since we are celebrating. I figured why not. I know Cujo and Ina will love it. I know you wouldn't want Ina and Cujo to be driving home drunk, would you?" Peter looked at me with these puppy dog eyes.
How the fuck am I suppose to say no to that face.
"Okay, fine, but next time tell me what you are going to do. It was very nice of you to do that. I know Ina would get a kick out of it. " I gave Peter a quick kiss on the lips and we made our way to the living room so we can call mom and dad.
"I'll dial since I have the phone." Emmett said while bouncing around in his seat.
"Damn, Emmy it seems like you have ants in your pants. You just can't sit still."
"Do you know how long I have been trying to hold myself back from calling Mom and Dad? You should be proud of me I didn't do it right after I talked to you the first time. Your cowboy over there called me and told me not to. He told me to wait till we saw you. So now that we have I'm going to call. So sit your ass down there and let's call."
(Carlisle's POV)
It's been almost three and a half years since we have left Forks and left my beautiful daughter behind, our Isabella or Bella as she prefers to be called. There is not a day that goes by that we do not think about her.
Why did we listen to Edward? Leaving Bella was one of the biggest mistakes of my life. I know I am not the only one that feels that way.
Emmett and Rose left, because they just couldn't handle all the sadness. I know Rose is trying to get Emmett back to his old self. The last conversation we had it was still the same. No changes with Emmett. She said they were going to go visit Jasper and Peter in Texas. Hopefully that visit will help.
Maybe a little vacation would do us some good. I know my Esme needs a little getaway. Texas doesn't seem so bad in the fall especially in Hill Country where Jasper and Peter are. Good cloud covers, hardly any sun.
I hear Esme in the hallway taking some measurements on another one of her projects to keep her busy. She misses Isabella terribly. There are times that I find her crying in the garden holding one of Bella's shirts that was left behind. It breaks my heart whenever I see her that way. I would do anything for her. If this visit with Jasper doesn't help then we are going straight back to Forks and see if we can find Bella. I can't take it.
What kind of a father am I to leave a child behind?
"Esme my love could you come in here for a minute." I whispered out to her.
"Yes, Dear." The sound of her voice still makes me a little weak in the knees.
I move away from my desk and I sit her on my lap.
"How would like to go visit Jasper and Peter in Texas? Emmett and Rose are already there. It will be a nice little getaway. We can also go to that little town that you heard of 'Fredericksburg' I believe. It's only about an hour away from Jasper and Peter's house."
The look on her face made my smile even wider than it already was. She looks absolutely radiant.
"Oh Carlisle! That would be wonderful. It would be great to see my children again. It's been such a long time. Peter's been asking for some decorating advice since he moved into that house. I can help them out with the house. It would be so much fun. I can't wait. Let's start packing. We can be there tomorrow." Esme just couldn't contain herself. She was already out the door before I had a chance to let her know that we needed to call them first.
"Esme, my love we need to call them first." I yelled out to her before she started packing.
"I'm sorry, honey. I just got a little carried away."
She made her way back into my office.
So your girlfriend rolls a Honda, playin' workout tapes by Fonda
But Fonda ain't got a motor in the back of her Honda
My anaconda don't want none
Unless you've got buns, hun.
That is the last time that Emmett will ever grab my phone. Even though that boy doesn't live here right now he is still being mischievous.
"Hello Emmett! Before you say anything, you are no longer allowed to setup my ringtones for my phone. Now that, that has been said to what I owe this great honor of your phone call. By the way, we were just talking about going to visit Jasper and Peter."
"I'm glad you enjoyed my ringtone. I need to put some excitement in your life old man, and the only thing I'm able to get away with is ringtones. The reason for my phone call is for that very reason. You do need to come to Texas. We found someone you might be interested in meeting." Emmett giggled.
My six foot four son actually giggled. Now that was new.
"So who did you find?"
"Hi Dad!"
Oh, dear god. That was Bella. It was my little girl.
"Bella, is that really you?"
"Yes, it's me. It really is me." Bella whispered out nervously.
I didn't even get a chance to answer when Esme took the phone away from me.
"Bella, my little girl is that really you. I can't believe it. I have missed you so much. Are you doing okay? Are you eating well? Are you taking care of yourself? Are you safe?" Esme automatically went into "Mom Mode". She was always extra protective over Bella. Bella gave her the chance to be a real mother. She enjoyed cooking for her taking care of her. She and Jasper would have so much fun planning Bella's meals when she was over.
"Yes mom it's me. I am fine. Yes I am eating well. I am taking very good care of myself and yes I am safe. I have Peter, Jasper, Rosalie and my Emmybear keeping me safe. I'm so happy to finally hear your voice. I have missed you so much Mom and Dad." Bella was choking up.
Esme wasn't doing too well herself. She was already dry sobbing. I quickly put her on my lap to try to calm her down. I grabbed the phone before she dropped it.
"Oh my sweet, sweet Bella I am so happy to hear from you. I am so sorry for leaving. We shouldn't have left." Now it was my turn to ramble. In my rambling I didn't realize that she was trying to talk to me.
"Dad, Dad, Dad please pay attention. I know….. I know…. Please listen to me." She yelled through the phone.
"I'm sorry. Please continue. I'm just so excited to finally hear from you." I tried to say in a calm tone, which I know I failed miserably at.
"Thanks Dad. I am really happy to hear from you too. I am living here in San Antonio. How about you and Mom hop a plane and come and meet me here. I have plenty of room for everyone. Rose, Em, Jazz and Peter are here with me. There is so much to talk about and we will talk about it once we are all together. So what do you say? Will you come?"
"How could I say no to you sweetheart we will take the first flight out tomorrow. I will text Emmett our arrival information. I'm so happy to hear from you again. I can't wait to see you tomorrow."
"I can't wait to see you both either. We have to leave now, but we will pick you up at the airport tomorrow. I love you both and I can't wait to see you. See you later, Dad. Tell mom I love her. Bye!" They really must be in a hurry. I heard some honking in the background.
"I love you too, Bella. We will see you tomorrow. Bye!"
I put the phone down and just stared at it for a minute. That was my daughter on the phone. I just finished talking to her. She is safe and happy.
I looked over to by beautiful wife and she was literally glowing. This is happiest I have ever seen her in a long time.
"Oh Carlisle, we get to see our little girl tomorrow. I can't wait. You make the flight reservations and I will pack." Before I was able to answer she was quickly off my lap and into our bedroom.
"I guess I'm making flight reservations."
(JPOV)
"They will be here tomorrow. They will text you with their flight details later on, Em. Let's hurry, before Ina climbs out of that car and drags are asses out of here." Bella literally jumped out of her chair and tossed the phone to Emmett. With a move like that I could have sworn she was a vampire.
She was happy, excited and nervous. She has gone through so much in the past twenty four hours.
"To late darlin', she is already at the door and she is annoyed."
"As long as she doesn't use my full name I know she isn't too mad." She whispered to me.
"Isabella Marie Swan, why aren't you outside? You should already be out there. You know I hate waiting. You better have a damn good excuse why you are not there." Ina said while opening the door.
"Too late, I'm in trouble. Could you dazzle her or something? If you don't, I won't hear the end of it." She whispered to me.
"Sorry kitten, I will not dazzle your friend. It wouldn't be right. I did it a couple times last night and it doesn't feel right if I do it again."
I heard her mumble something along the line of "stupid vampires and their morals."
"I'm sorry Ina. I was on the phone. It was a business call." Bella lied to her.
She doesn't believe you angel. You're a bad actress. You can't lie if your life depended on it.
Shut up cowboy!
"You are such a fucking liar. You know better than to lie to me. I know you too well, Ella. So just cut the bull and introduce me to your family so we can get this party started. I'm hungry and I'm in the mood to get drunk." Ina was blunt with her response.
Damn, I really like her.
"Well since your being so nice I will do exactly what you want, and please remind me again why you're my best friend?" She put a finger to her chin and had a pensive look on her face.
"The reason we are best friends is because you love my witty sense of humor and your skinny ass is so anti social that if you didn't have me you would probably be here at home completely miserable and wishing that you had a friend like me. So I hope that answers your questions, sweetie. Now do the damn introductions before I tell everyone about the night you got your tattoo and completely embarrass you for all eternity." Ina gave her a cheeky smile.
By the look on Bella's face and feeling her emotions she was embarrassed, nervous, annoyed and defeated.
I wonder what happened on that night. I look over to Peter and he just shrugs.
"Man, just because you have a damn ring on your finger doesn't mean you have to be such a bitch. I feel sorry for Cujo having to put up with your bossy ass, but your fucking lucky I love you. Even though you can be such a pirate hooker; you should go back to your home on Whore Island." Bella was far from being pissed. She and Ina really did love each other. They were both radiating a strong sisterly love.
Emmett and Rosalie didn't know how to react to the interaction between the two. Emmett was entertained. I think he found a couple of new insults to use in the future. While Rosalie was feeling a little overprotective of Bella and she was jealous of the closeness that Ina and Bella shared.
"They are okay they are just messing with each other." I said too low for the humans to hear.
"Oh yeah, well you have bad hair!" was Ina's quick response
With that last comeback they both just broke down laughing and gave each other a big hug.
"Okay enough let me introduce you to my family. Ina, this is my big brother Emmett and the lovely lady standing next to him is his wife my sister Rosalie. Emmybear and Rosie this is my best friend Ina." Bella introduced Ina to our siblings.
Emmett had a stupid grin on his face when Bella introduced him as her brother and Rosalie felt really good about having Bella introduce her as her sister. I have to admit there was a lot of love and admiration floating around in the room.
"It's a pleasure to meet you. I have heard a lot about you. Any friend of my sissy is a friend of mine. Congratulations on your engagement. He's a lucky guy." Emmett said to her while laying the charm on thick.
Fucker was trying to dazzle her.
Whack
I looked up and what I saw startled me. I was expecting to see Rosalie since she is the only one that normally smacks Emmett across the back of his head. I was not expecting the little petite thing of my mate holding a big book in her hands.
"What the fuck, Rosie!" Emmett turned around and was shocked to see his little sister holding a book. He looked over next to her and saw that Rose was laughing her ass off at what just happened.
"Quite dazzling my friend, Em." She scolded Emmett.
"What the hell, sissy! You ask Jasper to do it, but I can't. That's totally not fair. I'm just trying to help." Emmett yelled to her while rubbing the back of his head.
"Yes, I asked Jasper to do it, because I know how he does it. He controls more her emotions. While you and I know you well enough. Would make her do something stupid." She glared at Emmett daring him to challenge her.
Emmett bowed his head in defeat.
"Stupid sissy, why do you have to be right?" he whispered over to her.
At that moment Ina decided to snap out of Emmett's dazzling.
"It's a pleasure to meet you Emmett and Rosalie. Your visit couldn't come at a perfect time. Our girl here has been feeling a little lonely, and there is only so much I can do. It will do her some good to have her family around." Ina looked over to both Bella and Emmett.
"Ella why in the hell are you holding a damn book in your hands? I thought we were leaving already." She looked over at a confused Bella.
"I was about to kill a bug, but it seemed to have disappeared. Yes, we are leaving. I know you remember my mates….I mean my boys….I mean Peter and Jasper." Bella managed to fumble out.
Peter and I had a big smile on our faces. She was acknowledging us as her mates or something like that.
"So which one is it really? Or are you going to tell me later, because, I am most certainly looking forward to having a nice long lunch on Tuesday with you." She winked over to Bella.
Our girl was blushing a very dark shade of red.
"They are MINE and that is all I'm going to tell you." She quickly grabbed her handbag and both of our hands and made her way outside.
"Man, isn't she a feisty little thing. I guess Em and Rose it's time for us to go." I heard Ina call out to Em and Rose.
"You are so fucking sexy when you get all possessive. If we weren't already leaving we would take you up stairs and show you how sexy we really think you are. We would both start at that sweet pussy of yours." I whispered into her ear and nipped at her earlobe.
"Just remember my angel, we are possessive bastards. So don't be surprised if something happens. It won't be anything to bad, but just be prepared. Also just to let you know there will be a little detour before we come home tonight." Peter whispered into her ear and nuzzled her neck and gave her a quick kiss at her pulse point.
"C'mon you love birds. It's time to celebrate. Ella I also have some more news for you and I will tell you about it a little later. So let's hit the road Jack!"
I am getting a big kick out of the emotions that Ina is producing. She is happy, excited, and anxious and I can't forget in love. She and Cujo are most definitely in love. I can feel Cujo's emotions in the car.
Speaking of Cujo he quickly got out of the limo to give our girl a big hug. I know he is just her friend and he only has a brotherly love for her, but I don't like anyone touching what is MINE.
A low growl was building in our chests, but we managed to keep it low. It was low enough that the humans couldn't hear with all the background noise.
"Congratulations Cujo! It's about time you got your stupid ass in gear. I was given you till Christmas to propose. If you didn't do it by then I would have knocked some damn sense into your thick skull. Cujo, I would like you to meet my big brother Emmett and the beautiful woman standing next to him is his wife and my sister Rosalie. Em, Rose this is Cujo Ina's fiancée and one of my dearest friends. He's almost like a brother to me. Actually he is one of the brother's you want to beat the crap out of but yet you can't help but love."
Emmett and Cujo were both letting out some jealousy and I could have sworn I heard a little growl come from Emmett.
I lifted my eyebrow to Peter.
"They are both jealous of each other's connection to our girl. They both love her like a sister and they are afraid of her getting hurt." Peter said talking low enough for my ears only.
Cujo put his hand out to give Emmett a handshake. Emmett grabbed it, but by the looks of it, it was pretty strong handshake. Cujo's hand was getting white with the lack of circulation going through. I know Emmett could have easily broken his hand but I am happy to see him restrain himself from using his full strength.
I'm thinking I need to do something about this before it gets bad.
"Cujo congratulations on your engagement you are a lucky man." I quickly made my way in between them and grabbed Cujo's hand to shake. I had to break the tension somehow. I quickly sent out some calm to everyone.
"Thanks, Jasper. Yes I am a lucky man and I thank God everyday for bringing her into my life." Cujo said with goofy look on his face.
"Congratulation Cujo, like Jasper said you are a very lucky man. The love of a good woman is the best thing in the world." He winked over to where Bella was standing with Ina. A blush quickly covered her face.
Cujo noticed the little exchange between the two. He was most definitely curious.
"Is there something going on that I need to know about?" He looked over to Bella.
"Nothing to concern yourself with, just so you know Jasper and Peter belong to Ella and that is all you need to know. So let's get our asses back in the limo and on the road. I'm hungry and I want to drink." Ina quickly made her way to Cujo and they entered into the limo with the rest of us following behind her
Author's Note: I know what you all are thinking. I took too long on this chapter, but hey real life is still kicking my ass, but just so you know this is my last week of soccer. So I will be having more time to do things like write. I have not forgotten about PB&J. Far from it actually it is always on my mind and I can't seem to get it out of my head.
I finally brought in Ma and Pa Cullen. They are finally in the story. The next chapter should be a lot longer. This is basically a filler chapter. The fun begins! Sorry no lemony goodness, but I will change that next chapter.
I thought I would recommend a very, very, very funny Bella and Jasper story from the talented author mama4dukes and the story is titled "Life happens, so just roll with it." If you are not laughing within the first chapter I promise to eat my socks. (lol) This story I have reread a couple of times, when I needed a pick me up. Believe me these past couple of weeks have been bad for me. She should know since I have vented to her. Thanks girlie lots of love. The next chapter in PB&J is going to be dedicated to you. Not this one since it is only a filler. You deserve a chapter is full of lemony goodness. The link to her story is .net/s/6394455/1/Life_Happens_So_Just_Roll_With_It.
So like before my loves. I always like to know if it sucks or doesn't suck. Reviews get a sneak peek of the next chapter.
Thanks to my beta Moondey for getting this back to me and yet again thank you for taking the time to look it over for me.
