Finding Where I Belong
Stephenie Meyer still owns the characters.
Chapter 21
It's finally Friday evening and I'm getting ready to go to Rose's for our girls night.
The last few days have passed by pretty uneventfully. On Tuesday Edward, Rose and I went to see Emmett and on the way to see him I decided to ask Rose about inviting Angela and Alice to her place for a girls night and she easily agreed, she was actually pretty excited about meeting Angela. After getting the yes from Rose I called Alice to see if she wanted to come over for the girls night and she of course said yes and immediately started suggesting things for us to do. I finally had to tell Alice goodbye and hang up on her before she could say more when we pulled up to the orphanage.
Emmett was happy to hear that Angela was in Seattle and that we were able to hang out again and he was excited about seeing her again as well since she was like another little sister to him.
On the way home that day I was finally able to call Angela to confirm the plans and after giving her the address we hung up with the promise to see each other on Friday night.
Then Wednesday when Edward was at work I decided to start wrapping our Christmas presents to everyone since Edward mentioned that he was a crappy gift wrapper so I agreed to do it. And Thursday Edward and I just stayed in for another lazy day.
"Hey love are you sure your gonna be OK sleeping at Rose's tonight?" Edward asked as he wrapped his arms around me from behind bringing me out of my thoughts.
"Yeah I'm sure I'll be fine don't worry about me. Why don't you call Jasper and see if he can hang out with you tonight, have a guys night." I suggested
"Yeah he just called me actually and he's gonna come over with Alice to hang out, but I'll still worry about you because since we started sleeping together every night your nightmare hasn't returned but I'm worried it will come back tonight when I'm not there."
"Lets consider tonight a test,if the nightmare comes back then we'll know for sure that you keep them away."
"OK but I want you to come back here if you do have it so you can get some sleep."
"Deal. Now I gotta get over to Rose's" I said as I kissed him chastely on the lips before I grabbed my overnight bag and headed across the hall.
"Hey Bella" Alice called as I was about to knock on Rose's door and I turned to see her and Jasper getting off of the elevator.
"Hi guys" I called back before I knocked on the door.
"Alice and Jasper were saying their goodnights when Rose opened her door.
"It's about time you guys get here I was about to go across the hall to get you." Rose said as she dragged Alice and I in by the arms. I was just barely able to see Jasper going into our apartment before her door closed shut.
"So when is Angela getting here? I'm excited to meet her" Alice said jumping up and down a little.
"She should be here any minute now" I said just as my phone beeped with a text.
"She's here I'm gonna go down to meet her and bring her up" I said heading to the door.
"I'll come with you" Alice said as she quickly caught up to me.
"Hey Angela" I called as soon as I spotted her when the elevator doors opened, she was talking to Frank.
"Hey" she called back as she came up to us.
"How are you?" I asked as I hugged her.
"I'm good, excited for tonight."
I nodded at her. "Oh Angela this is Alice Edward's sister, Alice this is Angela my best friend since kindergarten."
"Angela it's so nice to finally meet you, we are gonna have so much fun tonight" Alice said excitedly as she hugged Angela who looked at me with wide surprised eyes I'm sure because of Alice's behavior which made me laugh.
"You get used to Alice and her excitement eventually trust me" I said as we got into the elevator.
After introductions were made between Rose and Angela we all decided on Chinese take out for dinner.
"So what shall we do for the next thirty minutes until the food gets here?" Rose asked when she was done placing our order.
"We should just put some music on and talk" Alice suggested and we all agreed so Rose turned on her stereo and put it on an 80's 90's and now station.
"So ladies I say we talk about our men" Alice said before she turned to Angela and asked "you have a boyfriend right?"
"Yeah I do, I've been with Ben for a little over a year now" Angela confirmed.
"Good then we can all talk about or men, so is Ben hot?" Alice asked her eagerly.
"Well to me he is but he's kind of a nerd when it comes to comic books but a sexy one" Angela admitted with a blush on her cheeks.
"What does he look like?" Rose asked curiously
"Well he's a little shorter then me but not by much, he's slim and has brown hair and hazel eyes."
"Does he still wear glasses?" I asked remembering that he wore them.
"No actually I convinced him to get contacts after I got mine last year. I mean don't get me wrong I love him with glasses but he looks even better without them."
"I'll bet" Rose said.
"So Rose have you and Emmett done IT yet?" Alice asked her.
"Alice I don't want to hear about that" I said louder then I meant to.
"What it's perfectly natural to tell your girls about your sex life."
"OK Alice maybe it is but Rose is dating my brother and I don't want to know anything about his sex life at all." I said before the door bell rang and Rose got up to get it and came back a couple minutes later with our food in hand.
"Just answer my question Rose" Alice persisted as we started eating.
"OK if you really must know no we haven't don IT yet we're taking things slow remember so we haven't gone past kissing and a little touching." I breathed a sigh of relief after Rose said that thankful I wouldn't have to hear anymore about it. But that relief was short lived when Alice turned to me and asked about mine and her brother's sex life.
"God Alice why do you want to know about that he's your brother" I groaned with a red face.
"So I don't mind. Plus we're not biological brother and sister."
"Fine no we haven't for one because I'm definitely not ready to take that step yet and two Edward would really rather not be considered a pedophile so he wants to wait until I'm eighteen."
"Wow do you really think you guys can wait that long, I mean that's over a year away?" Rose asked.
"Well I don't know if I actually want to wait that long or not, but as I'm sure you know Edward can be really stubborn when he wants to be and this is one of those things that he's gonna be stubborn about." I said and Alice and Rose nodded in understanding.
"Alright Alice it's your turn." I said
"Fine, Jasper and I have a great sex life. Oh my god he does this thing with his tongue and..." I interrupted her before she could continue.
"ALICE I don't want to hear the details" I said while my face of course turned beet red.
"OK OK fine I won't say anymore, Angela what about you have you and Ben?" Alice asked and Angela turned beet red as she nodded her head yes. "Well how is it with him?" Alice asked her.
"Oh Alice leave her alone." Rose said after a couple minutes of silence and it was obvious that she wasn't going to answer.
Alice pouted but let it drop anyway and Angela mouthed a thank you to Rose who nodded her head at her. Then we finished eating just listening to the music.
"I brought stuff for facials, I thought we could do that after we get into our pajamas" Alice said after we cleaned up from dinner.
"That sounds good, its been a while since I've had one" Rose said before she went into her room to change and Alice showed Angela to the bathroom so she could change in there before she went into the guest room which left me Rose's office to change in.
When I came back out Rose, Alice and Angela were setting up makeshift beds with blankets and pillows in front of the T.V.
"I thought we could have another living room camp out like last time" Rose said and I just nodded in agreement.
"Now that that's done it's facial time" Alice said excitedly.
"OK Bella your first and Rose will do Angela's" Alice said as she finished mixing a green goop up that I was kind of afraid to have on my face but I knew I couldn't get out of it so I went and sat in front of Alice and let her do her thing.
After we all had the green goop on our faces and Alice said we had to keep it on for thirty minutes, we made popcorn and put on the movie Easy A.
About twenty minutes into the movie there was a knock on the door. "I wonder who that is" Rose mumbled as she got up to get it. And the rest of us turned to see Jasper at the door looking at us with wide eyes before he finally spoke.
"What the hell is on your faces, you all look really freaky."
"Their called facials Jasper, now what do you need?" Rose asked a little impatiently.
"I just came over to see if you had popcorn Edward doesn't have any and we are gonna watch a movie but we don't feel like going out to buy some.
"Sure hang on I'll get you a bag" Rose said before going into the kitchen and Alice went up to him and hugged him for a minute.
"Oh Jasper this is Angela, Bella's best friend friend from Forks, Angela this is my boyfriend Jasper."
"It's nice to meet you Angela any friend of my little sister is a friend of mine, even if you look a little freaky right now." Jasper said chuckling a little as they shook hands.
"It's nice to meet you to." Angela said just as Rose came back with the bag of popcorn which she quickly thrust into Jasper's hands before pushing him out the door and shutting it in his face making all of us giggle.
A few minutes later we washed off our faces and went back to finish the movie.
After Easy A we put on My Sister's Keeper which had us all in tears. We decided to go to sleep after the movie ended but after laying down for a while I was still awake and Alice, Angela and Rose were already sleeping and even snoring lightly. So after a few minutes of contemplation I decided to go home to sleep next to Edward.
"I got up as quietly as I could and slipped out without waking any of them.
"When I got inside our apartment I noticed Jasper sleeping on the couch but because I wasn't expecting to see him I jumped a little making the door close harder then I meant for it to which of course made him jump up.
"I'm sorry Jasper it's just me"I said
"Oh Bella are you alright darlin?" he asked as he came up to me and gave me a hug.
"Yeah I'm fine, I just couldn't sleep without Edward" I said before he let me go.
"Alright I'll let you get to bed then, goodnight darlin" Jasper said as he went back to the couch.
"Goodnight Jasper, oh you can sleep in my bed if you want its not like it gets used anymore."
"Thanks Bella I think I will" he said as he started to follow me to the bedrooms.
Edward was sleeping on his stomach with his arms under his head and pillow when I walked into his room and I silently crawled into bed and snuggled into him which must have woke him up because he turned to his side and looked at me.
"Love are you OK did you have a nightmare?" he asked worriedly as he put his arms around me.
"No I just couldn't sleep without you."
"OK goodnight love you" he whispered before falling back asleep with his arms still around me.
"Love you to" I whispered back before I let sleep take me.
