Give the boy a life!
As soon as they're all seated, Carmen starts to serve dinner. Everyone digs in, some even moaning on each bite.
Soon, one by one they finish their food, with Edward being the first. After deliberately putting his spoon and fork on one side of his plate, he reaches for his glass and asks for a drink.
"Do you want wine, Edward?" Carmen offers.
"Nah, just give him a beer," Charlie cuts in. Edward's eyes almost bulge out of their sockets. "Give the boy a life." No one ever thought of hearing the Mr. Swan say that. Especially Edward.
"Really, Dad? I mean, are you sure his body can take it?" Emmett teases and is also truly sort worried. He almost saw someone die; he can't take another incident close to it on the same day.
"Emmett," Bella hisses, looking pointedly at him. He just shrugs at her in indifference. She rolls her eyes in return.
"So, what, Bella? Are you gonna take up law next year? 'Cause I can definitely see a lot of you defending Edward here," Jasper buts in, arms crossed. Bella scoffs at him.
"Kids, save that for later. No fighting in my dining room," Carmen suddenly orders. Who knew a "thought-to-be-dead" woman can be really scary?
