Chapter 25 – Mike's confession

Emmett's POV

"Alice! What have you done?" Bella screamed. Alice whacked her hand over her mouth so nobody would hear her. Hmm... funny, I never knew Bella was that fond of Mike...

"Ew no!" Edward hissed, "Just, well... Bella, do you er..."

"Bella," I interrupt, deciding that Alice would kill us all if we spent the whole day listening to Edward try and get it out, "Edward wants to know if you've been cheating with Mike."

"Ew no!" she squealed back, and there wasn't even anything juicy out of it... maybe next time... "But seriously, Alice, what have you done to Mike and Tyler?"

Alice grinned, "Let's just say the police found a little video recording of some of last night's French confessions, and then, back at Mike's lair, they might have found some of my old jewellery."

Bella didn't seem very worried about Mike any more, "Alice, you just give away jewels?"

Alice shrugged back.

"But Alice," Jasper asked logically, "Surely Mike will just... you know... tell them the whole story? Than we're in for it..."

"No, of course not honey. I would never get you in trouble-" ew, soppy "-Mike and Tyler are both just a little to traumatised to say anything here."

We leaned in to hear what was happening in the confession room.

"Mike, Tyler, I hope you realise how serious this is."

Silence.

"Newton, Crowley, I said something."

"Erm..."

"Look here, just watch this tape."

We were all pleasured with a rerun of des voleurs, the silly little thieves.

"Erm..." Mike and Tyler had no idea.

"Look I don't want to get angry lads. Did you or did you not steal the priceless jewellery in your lounge that was found in YOUR living room this morning?"

I heard Bella's breath suck in at the word 'priceless'.

"Bella," Alice hissed, snapping her hand over Bella's mouth, "They probably haven't seen designer before."

Mike's squeal bough our attention back to whatever was going down in the station.

"I'm so sorry. It was us, it really was just let us go please."

"Well, we'll have to tell you parents, and you could be charged when we find out who these belong to," the cop agreed as he filed the papers into Mike and Tyler's thick records.

I didn't need to see the future to know I would have to get my hands on that file somehow. Just an afternoon's entertainment or something...

"OK guys. Show's over. We have stuff at home." Alice snapped dragging Bella out the tree.

She pointed to the cars and we all got in obediently - cause for someone so small Alice is quite scary.

Jasper's POV

Alice's strict agenda was annoying but typically her. Edward refused to tell me all the way home and Emmett started singing just to shut up our bickering. The fact the lounge was spotless was not a surprise when we got home.

"Wow Alice." I gasped in awe.

"Sorry Alice, I'm telling him this time," Edward laughed, then turned to me, "She didn't really tidy it. If you open the cupboard you'll get a slight surprise!"

My scary little wife hissed, "Shut up all of you and sit down. Try and look normal. We've got a visitor."

I listened to the tyres turn onto the drive and as each moment passed I could feel the nervousness within the car grow stronger and stronger. Eventually the car cut of and I held my breath anticipating who the guest was and preying it wouldn't turn out like our last guest on Sunday...

"Hello? Is anyone in?" Oh. My. Gosh. *Ahh*... Edward I did not just think that, Emmett will tease me for eternity.

It was Mike Newton, surely he'd had enough fun with us last night.

"Well hello Mike!" Alice sang leaping up and muting the TV. Emmett whined like a baby.

Edward, who seemed to be in on the secret, gestured for Mike to have a seat, "what's up Mike? Can we help you?"

Mike flushed, "Well actually I really just wanted to speak to, erm... Rosalie and Jasper."

"Please Mike," Alice cooed, "Whatever you say to them surely you can say to the rest of us."

"Well, ur, Alice, the thing is I really need to speak to them about their cousin." Mike muttered.

Emmett leaped up, "What? You're not going to dis our cousin are you? We all love Jazzy!" We didn't give him enough credit at times. Bella had trouble not laughing and giving, whatever the game was, away.

"Fine." Mike said finally, "erm..." at this rate he wouldn't have said whatever it was by sundown so I sent a little wave of confidence his way. "Cullens, I think your cosine is in the French Mafia, he – that's right, he – is a pervert and a freak!"

Mike was straight away taken aback by what he just said, "I mean, um, I think that your cosine is a guy cause erm... and then I dunno, he sounded so... ur, scary and..." score! I'm scary!

"MIKE!" I boomed leaping up, playing along, "I was ill whilst our cosine was staying so I didn't even get to see her, and now you have the nerve to come here and tell me she's a fake?"

Rose sniffed dramatically, "Mike, I think you must be mistaken."

Mike fidgeted in his seat, "It's just I thought I saw..."

"What did you see?" Bella urged.

"I think I saw a, you know..." he edged.

The room was silent, obviously not from surprise, but if anyone said anything it would have pushed us all over the edge into full blown hysterics.

"Sorry, maybe, maybe I was wrong..." Mike said. He walked slowly out the room but then we heard his running footsteps to his car.

"hahahahaha!"

Just as Emmett smacked his fist on the kitchen wall, the Alice's cupboard burst open and the room was flooded with the junk that we'd collected this week. No one bothered digging Bella out the piles and she will sill laughing, all be it with a bruise on her forehead, when she climbed out.

Eventually when we'd all calmed down a little, Alice asked simply, "Who's ready for the next item on the agenda?"
