Chapter 21

APOV

After Edward and Bella left we all sat in the living room watching movies.

I was sitting in Jasper's lap while Rose and Emmett were doing I don't know what, I didn't even want to think about it.

Jasper looked a bit out of it.

"What are you thinking?" I asked him. He looked at me and smiled.

"I was thinking how much you made me beg before dating me." he smiled as I blushed slightly.

Jasper had liked me and had continuously been asking me to go out with him but I used to turn him down. I always thought that he was some kind of arrogant jerk who was only bothered about their image and popularity and I was new to this school, I was 15 at that time.

Flashback

I had been going to this school for a year now. I had friends but they were really fickle minded, they always went with the A crowd!

"Hey." Jasper greeted me as I went to sit beside him; unfortunately he was my partner and had always being bugging me to go out with him. I had been ignoring him but he couldn't take a hint.

"So what are you doing tonight?" he asked inching towards me.

"Jasper let's get this straight, I do not like you. In fact, I find you irritating so please leave me alone, alright?" I said menacingly he looked hurt but I couldn't care less, I didn't like him, I was so sure he would be just like other celebrities.

"Why won't you give me a chance?" he asked hurt still apparent in his eyes. "I mean we can just watch a movie as friends. Alice I really like you, I would never hurt you." he said sincerely.

"Get lost okay; my life is complicated enough without you following me like a fly. I am sorry for being rude but I don't want to date right now." I said really annoyed now.

"Fine, don't date me but you can at least be my friend." he said a bit pleading.

I just ignored him. At that time I was going through a lot of things, my parents use to fight all day and they were planning to get a divorce and it broke my heart, I was proud that my parents were together unlike most of my friends but I guess I was wrong.

Jasper never approached me after that day, but sometimes I caught him staring at me. I thought of giving him a chance but I couldn't afford another heart break so I pushed the feelings aside. Many days passed and everything was fine until one day.

I went to school at my usual time, my parents had divorced and there were rumors how it was my fault and how my mother was a whore but I ignored them as my father taught me. But that day during lunch, by mistake, I spilled my lunch all over Tanya. Her hair and her dress were soaked and messed up. She shouted at me in front of the whole cafeteria, I even promised her that I would buy her a new dress but she just made fun of me and laughed at me.

From that day she started calling me a looser and made fun of anyone who sat with me during lunch, so no one did. I sat all alone with my book. Everyone snickered at me and called me a looser and a freak. I was used to this kind of treatment and being alone all the time.

No one would sit with me, everyone abandoned me. No one that is, except Jasper. One day during lunch he just put his tray next to mine and sat with me and started telling me about an episode of the 'Simpsons' he'd seen the night before. He acted like there had never been a rift between us in the first place, and as if people in the hallway didn't accuse him of being a looser and a friend of a freak. But he didn't care.

I realized how wrong I was about him, and how rude too. I cried a lot that day and he comforted me and said I had no need to be sorry, we became great friends since then and slowly fell in love.

From that day we have been inseparable, we didn't care what people thought, all that mattered was that we loved each other, and I found my mum in Esme who had always treated me like her own daughter.

End flashback ( liked it?)

I smiled at the memory and pecked him on the lips.

"But I am very happy you never gave up, and Jasper I am still very sorry for how I behaved." I said with a sigh.

"Hey, I love you, okay? And it was worth it." he said caressing my cheek with his thumb. I smiled, only Jasper could make me smile like this.

"I love you too." I said kissing him again. "And I am very happy that I dropped my food on Tanya." I laughed and he laughed while hugging me tightly against him.

"Hey love birds, go to your room, I don't want to puke. I had tasty chicken wrap which is happy in my tummy." Emmett said patting his stomach.

"You are disgusting." Rosalie said scrunching her face.

"Oh, you still love me." he teased back.

"So do you think they will come back tonight?" I asked them, it was already one AM, things can get interesting!

"Ha-ha, I don't think so; people are getting cozy I see." Rosalie laughed kissing Emmett.

"Hmm, I can't wait to confront Bella, she will heat up like anything, hey Jasper make sure camera is ready, I am gonna record everything." she said devilishly.

"Please be nice Emmett, why are you always trying to embarrass her?" I asked shaking my head.

"Oh I love her, but she's just so adorable and inviting. I wish you blush the way she blushes, things would have been more interesting." he snickered.

"I am going to sleep, I don't think they are coming anytime soon." I said yawning. Just then the bell rang. We all looked at each other and smirked. Emmett ran to the door like a five year old.

"Oh, so how was the sex guys?" he asked as he opened the door but then immediately stopped, his eyes were wide. I went over to him but halted when I saw who was standing at the door. Carlisle and Esme, their eyes wide and mouth open.

"Emmett Cullen I taught you better than that!" Esme scolded him as she came in, she was slightly blushing, probably she thought the question was directed towards them, I snickered at the thought.

"But what you guys doing here, I thought you were coming day after tomorrow?" Emmett asked as he hugged Carlisle.

"Oh he finished his meeting and I was just feeling homesick without my kids, so I thought we would head home rather than doing site seeing." Esme explained.

"Hello Esme how was your trip?" I asked hugging her.

"It was great dear, wow you guys are up late I see. Did you guys know we were coming? I thought we would surprise you all." she explained while hugging Jasper and Rosalie.

"Hey where is my hug? I want one too." Emmett whined at the door.

Esme smiled at him but glared at the same time. Carlisle was helping the servants with the baggage.

"So how are you all, where are Edward and Bella?" he asked suddenly while we all shifted uncomfortably.

"Um, dad they are sleeping, they have a test tomorrow, so yeah." Jasper said a bit uncertainly.

"Oh that's good, I am glad they are still alive. Ha-ha, I wouldn't be surprised if they had pulled out each other's hair." he said laughing.

"You have no idea of their relationship, dad, they hate each other." Emmett said emphasizing on the word hate. We all shot him pointed glances.

"Come on guys, off to bed now. We are tired as well; I will just go to bed." Esme said standing up and going towards the kitchen.

"Goodnight kids, go to sleep soon. Oh, how was your recording guys?" Carlisle asked, he is a really cool dad, he never got angry at them well unless and until they had done some huge damage.

"Oh dad it was so cool, we finished it in six hours, and we have to go back in a couple of days." Jasper said excitedly.

Esme came out of the kitchen and kissed our foreheads and bid us goodnight, and we sighed in relief, if they had caught Bella and Edward dating she would have told Renee and it would have been pretty bad. I thanked God, but I guess God had another plans. As Carlisle and Esme headed for the stairs the front door opened and Bella and Edward came in smiling like idiots.

We all stared at them, but they hadn't noticed Esme or Carlisle yet.

"Hey guys, how was your evening?" Bella asked slightly blushing while Edward snickered and kissed her cheek.

Esme cleared her mouth loudly and their heads shot in her direction. Their expression became horrified.

"Hello Esme." Bella said in a very small voice and blushed furiously.

"Hello dear, I see you and Edward are getting along." she said smiling slightly but then she shot Jasper a glare.

"I am going to sleep, come on Rose." Emmett said jumping out of the couch.

"Oh I don't think so young man! Everyone stay here, you kids have lots of explanation to do." she said coming down, Carlisle was smiling though.

"So are you two together?" he asked Bella and Edward but he seemed like he wanted a yes in the answer.

"Please dad, we are tired. Can't we talk tomorrow?" Edward snapped clearly frustrated.

"Watch your tone Edward! ,Bella I expect you to tell me the truth honey." Esme said to Bella, who sighed and looked at Edward.

"Can I talk to you in private?" Bella asked looking at Esme and then at us and blushing again. Emmett's right, it is fun to watch her to blush.

"Sure dear, all of you wait here till we come back, and both of you follow me." she said to them and went upstairs.

"If I were you I would be scared." Carlisle said watching Esme climb the stairs. Then he turned to Edward "Way to go boy, I always liked Bella. I am so proud of both of you." he said as he hugged them as we all snickered at him.

EPOV

Great, the most wonderful night of my life can turn into a roller coaster so easily; Bella looked very scared, I pulled her next to me and kissed her head.

"Its okay baby, she won't be mad I promise I love you." I murmured as we made our way towards my parents room.

"I love you too, so much, but I didn't want them to find like this, she must be hurt that we tried to lie to her." she said sadly leaning into me.

"Shh, just relax." I whispered.

We sat on the couch while mom and dad sat on the bed, Bella took off the jacket I made her wear while coming back as it was really chilly and immediately Este's eyes darted towards her necklace. Bella followed her gaze and blushed.

"So, explain everything, now." Esme said looking at the necklace and then me.

"Mom, Bella and I love each other and it doesn't matter what you say." I replied quickly.

"Mrs. Cullen, I am really sorry. We didn't mean to tell you like this but I was really scared and I am sorry." Bella said softy, it seemed as if she was gonna cry but she continued "It's okay if you don't want me to live here anymore." she whispered clutching my hand.

"Don't be ridiculous dear! You can't believe how happy I am that Edward left Tanya and is in love with you, I am not mad dear, I promise. I'm just a little hurt that you two tried to hide it. And Bella, don't call me Mrs. Cullen, please call me Esme or mom, I would love it. I told you before that I loved you like my own daughter." she said hugging Bella.

"And Bella we are honored to have you here, please don't think like that, this is your home." Carlisle added.

"I am sorry Esme." Bella whispered.

"Don't be, so are you gonna tell why you two didn't tell us." she asked.

I looked at Bella, I wanted her to tell, and I didn't know what to say? After all it was her decision.

"Um, well, argh, I don't know how to explain this to you." Bella sighed.

"Esme, you know my mum, she wouldn't be pleased to know I have made a boyfriend in just a month and I am living in the same house with him." she said so quickly that it was even hard for me to catch.

"I know sweetie, but lying is not the solution honey." my mum sighed.

Bella just stared at her lap.

"Mom, please let us handle it our way. If we don't want to tell her mom, then leave it." I snapped at her while she glared at me.

"Fine, but think about it, and Bella you must know, I really love you dear! You can come to me for anything okay?" she said in a loving voice to Bella.

"Thanks Esme." Bella said smiling but it didn't reach her eyes.

"Edward can I talk to you for a minute?" Esme asked me.

Before I could say anything, Bella got up and bid us all goodnight and left, I knew something was wrong.

"What mom?" I asked frustrated.

"It was Elizabeth's necklace." she stated rather than asked.

"Oh really, I didn't even notice." I said sarcastically.

"Edward, I mean why did you give that to her, that was your real mom's, you could've given her anything else." she said cautiously.

"Well that's none of your business. I love Bella, and my mother gave it to me so I can give it to anyone I want, and mom thanks for being so supportive of our relationship, we were doing so good before you came. My birth mom would have been happy for me rather than lecturing me." I yelled at her.

She looked taken a back, but I was right and I knew it.

"Edward your mom is just trying to help you, and we are happy. We both love Bella, she's a nice girl, but you are moving too fast." dad defended her.

"Well then I don't need your help, alright?" I said before marching out of the room.

I went to Bella's bedroom and I could hear muffled sobs from behind the door, it broke my heart. I quietly opened the door and saw Bella curled in a ball hugging her legs, her body was shaking and her face was buried in the pillow.

"Bella, love what happened?" I asked as I went to her she just shook her head and said something I couldn't get.

I climbed the bed and hugged her to my chest; I rocked her while she cried in my chest.

"Baby what happened? Please tell me I can't watch you like this, please talk to me." I pleaded it hurt so much to see her like this.

"Ed—war-d, I am s—uch a b—a-d dau—ghter." she said between her sobs, she clutched my shirt with her tiny hands.

"Bella love, you are not a bad daughter. Ignore Esme, shh, it alright I love you." I said while holding her.

"I am soo sorry, I made you and Esme fight." she sobbed.

"Bella please, it's not your fault okay?" I said lifting her tear stained face and kissing her tears away.

"Do you want your necklace back?" she whispered. I was shocked.

"You heard?" I asked, no wonder she was crying. I felt like I was punched in the gut.

She nodded.

"I am soo sorry , please don't take Esme seriously. I am so sorry." I said I was so desperate I felt like crying, I loved her soo much it hurt to see her like this.

"I know its okay. She loves you." she said, it felt like she was convincing herself.

"Shh, go to sleep now. I am here okay, you don't need to worry." I said as I rocked her and kissed her slightly, she relaxed under my touch.

It didn't matter what my parents think. It doesn't matter what her parents will think. I love her and I will never let her go it was the first time I felt complete, Bella gave me courage and strength, and that was all I needed!
