Just finished writing this, well, typing. I HAVE FINALLY FINISHED WRITING IT!! Chapter 39 is the last chapter! Who-hoAH! YEEE-HAW!!! (I always get the foreign exchange students to say that-it's so funny!!! (You know they don't have country music in Germany?????? Omg!!! I'm sending my friend some cds around Christmas-among with marshmallows, Reese's peanut butter cups and Snickers. All stuff they don't have. (And she's addicted to. Her whole suitcase was full of food.) THEY ALSO Don't HAVE HAMBURGERS!!!!!) Okay, anyways-Here's Edward's point of view.
Chapter 35 (Edward's POV)
How was I going to explain this?
"Bella, I'm sorry. You have to understand." I said, turning away. I wasn't too far away that I couldn't read the thoughts of the household. I can't believe he called me a woman!
Just like Rosalie saying I was gay. I growled slightly, not noticing it.
"Edward? Are you okay?" Bella asked me, hesitant. She looked scared. I went over to her and held her possessively.
"Bella…I love you." I said.
"I love you too, Edward." Bella said, pulling me tighter to her. She wasn't going to let me go, was she?
"Bella…I—" I looked down at her. She was snuggled into my chest. It almost looked like she was sleeping. "Come on. Let's go to the house."
We walked to the house and Bella kept her arms around me, not letting me go, "Bella, do you want me to carry you? It might be easier—"
"I'm fine." She said simply. We came out of the forest and saw everybody on the porch. Uh-oh. I was in deep-deep trouble.
"Edward." Esme said disapprovingly when we got closer. "Didn't I teach you better? You shouldn't be beating people up!"
I heard snickers go around, but Jake wasn't one of them. He protested instead, "Hey! He didn't beat me up! I'm perfectly fine!"
"Males and their egos." Bella laughed quietly beside me. The women laughed with her.
"Well, I have to go." I stepped back, taking Bella by surprise.
But she still retaliated with a stern, "No."
"Bella, I have to."
"No." Her body was stiff and face was expressionless.
"I have to go h-" Her eyes went to a daze for a second and arms went looser, but still stiff. "Bell-"
"More wolves are coming." She said. "About forty or so. They should be---"
Everybody watched as the wolves padded down the long driveway.
"Shopping trip!" Alice cried out. Obviously thinking to buy clothes for the naked wolves. "Rosalie, come on!"
"Alice," I said, "You don't have enough control to be around the humans."
Her face fell and her bottom lip trembled. Jasper gave me a glare as he went and consoled his mate, "You can still shop online, my dear." (AU"HEHEHE! I THINK THAT LINE IS SO FUNNY!)
She again was elated.
Tanya instructed Alice and Rosalie to go get clothes for the new arrivals. Jake still had a blanket around him. The girls were back by the time the wolves reached us.
"Hello, brothers." Sam said, walking past us. Alice and Rose followed him, arms full of jeans and shorts. Sam turned to look at the rest of us. Bella got the message faster than anyone. Even me, the mind reader.
"Alright, everybody inside while they change." She said, shooing us into the house.
"Actually, some of us have to hunt first." I said. Jasper I knew had to and Bella might. I knew I definitely had to.
Bella stopped and looked at me. "That's why you wanting to leave?"
I nodded and she looked embarrassed. She still had the pink in her face, almost like a blush. "Whoops. Sorry."
"What did you think I was doing?" I asked jokingly.
Bella looked down, like she was ashamed, "I-I thought you were leaving me."
My smile disappeared. How could she think that? "Isabella, I will never leave you. Never."
"I know. I just…" She finally looked up at me, "I'm sorry."
"Oh, Bella." I wrapped her up in my arms and carried her inside, away from the naked men.
This time, Bella and I got the chair. Emmett gave me a cold stare. Alice just laughed, "Don't worry guys. We have to go outside in a second anyways. Only the leaders are going to talk since there's so many."
"Aright, they're ready." Jake said at the door. We all went outside except Carlisle and Tanya. The pack leaders went inside and the rest of us just lounged around, not talking.
Emmett chuckled beside me. What should we do to break the ice? I shrugged. Should I ask them if they want to play fetch?
I tried to hide my outburst of laughing by coughing. Emmett clapped me on the back, as if to help. They kept watching us two after that, wary of us. "Uh, Jasper? Do you need to –um-"
"Yes." He stood up and walked around the wrap around porch to the back.
"Bella?" I asked, catching her attention from Alice and Tanya's laptop.
"Hmmm?" She said, looking at me.
"Do you need to-uh-leave?" I said, not wanting to say the word feed or anything like that while they watched us like hawks.
She simply smiled, "Nope. I'm okay."
I went the way Jasper did and saw that the rest of my family and the Denali's had too. All except Bella. I was about to go back when Alice said she'd be fine with the wolves.
Bella's POV (I was getting bored with Edward. Although, I did love that Emmett comment about playing fetch. )
Going back a little in time- just a few seconds
Alice and I were searching the internet for clothes. Let me tell you, much better than going to malls. "I'm going to go with Edward."
She got up and gave me the laptop and left to go with the rest of the family. I stayed where I was at on the porch stairs. After a few minutes, Jake came over and sat on the step below me. Before he got the chance, I spoke, "You know, your comment about if Edward and I getting married sure brought up a bunch of problems."
"Yeah…I hope he heard my thought about the over reactive woman." He laughed and I smiled as I glanced at him. I bet Edward had, but wasn't for sure. "So, whatcha lookin' at?"
I grinned at him, "Collar's. With those pointy spikes. You'd look good in one."
He made a face a me, "Ha-ha. So funny."
"Give me a 'grrrr'!'" I laughed, watching his face. He was trying not to laugh. "Oh, Jakey-poo!" (AU-my own brother's nickname. Actually-it's a family thing to do that!)
He wrapped an arm around me and turned me to face him, while doing that, he placed me in his lap-like a child. And started tickling me. "HA! Think its funny know?"
"Yes." I giggled while trying to get his fingers away.
"Really?"
I laughed in his face, not able to get away. "NO! JAKE! NO! DOWN, BOY! DOWN!"
"HEY!!" He said in mock hurt.
I gasped, hit with yet another vision. Another pack of wolves were circling the two vampire families. "Jacob, Stop."
He immediately stopped, but kept his hands on my waist. I stood up, "Their in trouble, Jake. There's a pack following them."
"How do you know?" He asked.
"I saw it." That's the only thing I said before I took off.
"Bella!!" I heard as I ran.
I sped off, following the trail that smelled of Edward. I was almost to him, when something hard hit my side, barreling me into a tree. Poor tree. Nothing was left of it.
I groaned as I stood, I could hear the wolf. Even though my eyes were closed, I could see him. I saw three wolves come up behind him and then spread out, circling me. They gave strange glances to each other. Then they crouched, ready to leap.
I looked past them, seeing where everybody else was. The Cullen's and Denali's were talking after picking up a fresh trail of werewolf. The wolves that were in the yard were fighting with Jake and Sam whether or not to come after me and help. The leaders were on the porch, watching the feud.
I ducked right in time as the wolves lunged at me. I stepped out of their reach as they snapped at me, "What do you want?"
They growled and this time, only one came at me, I side-stepped it grabbed its fur and slammed it into a nearby tree. It wasn't dead, just knocked out. Another one came at me and fell on top of me. It bit me on my shoulder and I tried to kick him off, but he kept attached to me. If I wasn't for sure he was a wolf, I would think he was a vampire. I grabbed his front leg and squeezed it; breaking it. He yelped, pulling back. I kicked him again and he flew off me, landing by the two wolves that were left.
Three more wolves came up. I sighed, knowing they wouldn't give up, "Why are you doing this? Seriously, you can't give us a chance?"
They snorted. Well, it sounded like they sneezed, but I knew it was snorting. I heard breathing behind me and stiffened. A wolf nudged my arm, sliding under it. I looked at 'em and it was….
I know there was a lot of AN's but…yeah. Loved yesterday's reviews. I was so tired that I added that Edward cussing part. BUT IT WAS FUNNY!!!
