First and foremost this is the original story before I started to rewrite it... and got stuck in the writing of the rewrite. If you are following the rewrite you will notice quite glaring differences between this and the one you have already started following. I do not intend on giving up with the rewritten version, however, I think you guys waiting for me to get over my blank slate of a muse isn't going to happen any time soon. So I am re-posting the original. This was my first completed story and it is very different from how my last stories flow.

Secondly, this is not beta'ed. NOT AT ALL. There will be mistakes in spelling (I'm Australian and some words we spell differently). The layout will honestly have you wondering what the hell I was thinking. I wasn't; well that's not true. What I was thinking was that I knew what I was doing and screw anyone else... yes I was a conceited little shit even at the age of 31.

Thirdly, there are 68 chapters to this story, including the epilogue and two outtakes. All of which have been uploaded to my profile I will try to upload as often as I can. Please understand that I have a busy life in the real world. This includes two children, one grown and the other with disabilities. So while I should be able to update wherever I am, if something happens please understand that I will miss updating.

Last but not lease. I am not SM. Not even close. I do not own the franchise, work in any capacity with the publishing houses or studios. I merely escaped from reality to play with some characters that I fell in love with while reading four books in a matter of days.

"Hey, Jasper have you spoken to Bella today? It's been what 24 hours since you last heard from her. You sure you haven't gone into withdrawal or anything?" Peter calls from across the room.

After getting a call last night from Char and him I was told that I was not to enter their house on penalty of death. Bella needed to talk to Alice about something. We all knew that something was wrong with her but she wouldn't open up to anyone. Hopefully, Bella was able to get thought to her though.

"Wasn't it you two that told me that I couldn't call her until she called us this morning. Something along the lines that she'd been up all night and needed her sleep? And that she's waiting for a call from Tanya?" I replied and as much as I wanted to call her all morning and well after lunch I had done what they had asked, and it didn't help much that I worked until the early hours in the morning either.

"Well how about you give her a call? It's nearly 3 and she should be out of bed by now." Mamma called from the kitchen, we were only waiting for Bella and the two D-I-T as Bella had christened Alice and Edward.

Rose and Emmett were already outside helping pa get everything ready. After everything finally settling down and Bella's pregnancy coming to an end soon we had decided that we should make the most of it; knowing that she's not going to be in for all this stuff once peanut is born.

I know that I'd been a pain in the ass about helping to pick a name for him or her, but I wasn't sure what would really suit. Mamma told me and Peter that we didn't have any names until she had seen either of us, but we also knew that ultimately it was a joint decision. I thought that using that tactic with the name would be more special, but I don't think I'd ever told Bella that either. It should have been something that I had told her about and I'm pretty sure that I'm gonna get my ass handed to me by mamma and Bella.

Hell maybe Char would join in, well no maybe I'm positive she would. She's still a little pissed at the fact that it took so long for everything to fall into place with the crazy mess our relationship started in; that plus she owed me one when I walked in on her and Peter not too long ago. That thought and sight definitely was something that would make any horny man soft within seconds.

Don't get me wrong Charlotte has a great body; shit she has all the right curves and all that. But she wasn't something that I'd go for. What scarred me for life was seeing Peter's white ass in the air with fucking leather chaps on. Only leather chaps on. That shit right there is something I never want to see again. I never want to see that thing again.

Knowing that mamma and pa were sort of using this as a way to bring Bella into the family, even more, was probably another reason to call that woman to see what was taking so long. That was my reasoning anyway, they all knew why I would jump at the chance but at least this time I had another reason to do this. But when I called all that was heard from the other end was the engaged signal.

"It's engaged, maybe she's talking to Tanya now, and you said she was waiting for some results before," I called as Char looked up from the book she was reading.

Something that Bella had given her and Peter as a thank you thing for letting her have last night without any extra ears around.

"Give her a half hour and try again. Maybe that's all it is. Though I don't know why she didn't just use the call waiting." She called once again returning to the book.

God only knows what the book was about but it had Pete's interest with no issues. After feeling a little uneasy I let it go. If something was wrong Bella would call the house; knowing that we'd all be here tonight. Walking out the sliding doors I saw Emmett and Rose heading towards the lake outback. The perks of living on a big property. I headed to talk to pa; he's always good for a laugh.

"He pa, how's it hanging, second thoughts don't answer that." I greeted my father with a pat on the back to gain his attention.

He was always running around these days making up things for Bella and peanut, like the cabinet for the bedroom; nothing fancy but was easy to move around and shit like that.

"You know son, one of these days I might just show you. Maybe then you won't keep asking." The sick and twisted old man that he was; I wouldn't' put it past him.

Hell, he helped raise Pete ad me. He'd have to be twisted to survive that shit. I couldn't help but cringe internally at the mental image that was starting to form.

"So how're things going between you and Bella?" well damn, since when did he turn into a woman, I was expecting this from mamma but not from him. Though maybe it had something to do with the wicked glare that I saw ma give him last time she started integrating me on what was going on between me and Bella.

"Not bad, not good. Can't complain really. Though I'm sure you'll hear about all the ins and outs of everything from Char and her when she gets here." I wasn't going to tell him what I was thinking about, shit I wasn't even sure if I was ready for more than what was going on now.

I knew if I wanted to talk he'd be the one I'd go to; but I really wanted to make sure everything was right, that I knew inside and out that marriage was what I wanted. Yes, I wanted it later down the track with Bella but I wasn't sure if she did.

"I call bullshit Jazz; something's going on in empty shell you call ahead, out with it. You know better than pulling that shit with me." Pa's too smart for his own good methinks. "You gonna up and fess as you used to say as a kid or do I get the woman of the house to come and tan your ass."

Shaking my head I surrender; why because I know he'd fucking do it too. And ma would get a kick of spanking me as a grown man.

"Let's head over to the shed and grab a drink. Maybe then you might open that mouth of yours and tell me what's going on". Dragging my ass over to the shed, I know that something's up, it's the one place that pa took us when he wanted a serious talk with either of us boys.

Some things never change.

"All right what's up son?" Pa seems cautious about getting into something that may or may not be out of his depth, hell he's the one who brought me in here.

"Just thinking about what's gonna happen once Peanut is here. I mean between me and Bella. I know I want a future with both of them, but I'm not sure exactly what she wants. Not sure what to do really." I blurt it out, knowing that once it's out I know it will make sense to him as well as me. I won't lie to him, and I know that this won't go any further than the two of us.

"Well what do you want, what does this future that you want look like?" he's close to serious as he can be, I also know that he's fully focused on what we're talking about.

"What do you mean? What do I want, or what do I want to happen?" cause both are very close to what I want to happen.

"Well it's more of what you want with Bella, you said you want a future, but what is that future. Basically are you in love with the woman or is it just a feeling of love, as you have for Char and the other girls?" shit me, he's getting more to the point than I've ever known him to be, even when he told us about how to treat women, or when he gave me shit for being a man-whore as he put it.

"Well, I don't want any other girl if that's what you mean, she's it for me. Peanut is sorta like a bonus, I get the girl and the family in one. I just want to be a part of that family. I want to marry the woman, have her and peanut live with me, the whole thing. But I'm not sure what she wants. Does that make any sense to you?" I asked once I told him everything. Why is it once you talk to your old man everything seems clearer? Something I want to know before Peanut gets too big and starts to ask some questions.

"Well shit me, since when did you grow up son? I'd never thought I'd hear you talk like that, let alone in the few months since you met Bella. So what's stopping you from asking her? Other than not having a big enough pair to ask the girl?" he corners me, and you see right there is why I know that my old man is still the same after all these years.

"Jasper, where the hell are you? Have you got hold of Bella yet?" mamma calls from the back porch.

Both I and the old man jump because we both know that that woman will be scary as hell if we don't answer her straight away. Heading out the shed, she sees us walking and just nods her head; knowing that something had sorted out.

"Tell ma I'll be there in a minute. I'm gonna try Bella's phone again." He nodded as he walked inside waiting for some privacy from everything, but as I call there's still only the engaged signal. After trying a few more times I walk inside just as Edward and Alice walk in.

"Hey did Tanya let you go early or something? Jazz's been trying to call Bella for the last hour or so." Char asked Alice as both the D-I-T share a very unusual look.

"Char, Tanya called over an hour, and Bella said she was just leaving to come here. You sure you're calling the right number?" Well shit me I'm not dialing the wrong number, it's on fucking speed dial for Christ's sakes.

"Look I'm gonna head over to your place and pick her up, knowing Bella she's probably trying to figure out how to get behind the wheel of that monster of a truck of hers." I grab my keys and start the car before I notice the passenger door open and close.

"I got a bad feeling about this man; she's never been late for anything in her life." Peter's only reply to my look. Now if he's worried then I sure as hell am.

Stepping on the gas we make record time; a ride that usually takes a good 30 minutes we made in less than 20. The good news was that Bella's red monster was sitting in the driveway, so was the Nissan that she got once we talked about the truck not being suitable for peanut to be driven in. This meant one of two things. Either Bella had fallen asleep or something was very wrong inside.

"Jasper, be careful. If something's wrong she might be just on the other side of the door." Peter's caution is not really needed but I appreciate it anyway, I don't think I'd be able to live with myself if something happened because I wasn't careful with opening the door. Thankfully she wasn't behind the door, or anywhere near the vicinity of the front door.

"Bella where are you? You were meant to be at the parent's place an hour ago." Peter calls, while looking around the front of the house; while I look towards the hall and the bedrooms.

"Peter call an ambulance. NOW!" I yelled, Bella. What the hell happened?
