A/N: I just want to say thank you for all the reviews!! :D Well I hope you like this chapter...I've been having major writers block, grr. Enjoy!
Edward drove incredibly fast down the road. I just felt so free and alive that I didn't object. There were so many questions running through my head right now but I just bit my tongue so I could savor the moment.
"So where are we going? ''I asked him, not really caring about the answer but more of just listening to his voice.
He took his eyes off the road and looked at me, ''I think I owe you an explanation so we are going somewhere private.''
I got goose bombs all over me, I really missed his sweet silky smooth voice ''Okay."
Five minutes later we ended up at La Push Lake.
''Why are we here?''
He let out his crooked smile. ''It was where our first date was," then he let out a laugh. "But to spare you I won't take you in the boat this time.''
I let out a loud sigh, "Phew."
He chuckled and the got out of his car and walked around to my door. He helped me out and then tilted his head looking at me for a split second thinking. Then he slammed the door shut, threw me up against the side of the car and kissed me.
He let go and pulled back from me, ''I really missed that part."
My head was spinning. "Edward, I love you.''
He pulled me into a warm hug and whispered in my ear smooth and luring, ''I love you more than anything."
He wrapped his arm around me and we walked away from the car towards the edge of the lake.
"So do you want to know the whole story?" He asked me.
I didn't know the answer he was looking for, so I told him the truth. "Sure."
He let out a low sigh and then began. "Well, after we came back from the carnival my father was waiting for me in Pierce's office--" I cut him off.
"No, tell me everything…like before you came here, why did you?"
"Oh. That part." He looked up in the sky for a second to think. "My brothers and I have lived in England our whole lives as the princes. Not that I'm complaining, but we were just never really able to get away to have fun. Since my dad is getting older he was going to pass the crown down to me in a year or so, and so we decided to get away until then. Plus my parents thought the separation between me and Tanya would help us. You see we've known each other for years, she is part of a royal family from Wales, so it was only obvious to put us together. I have to admit I really liked her for a long time, and I thought she felt the same way. We had been seriously dating since we were sixteen and I was about to propose to her but she cheated on me with another guy. That crushed me and I lost the trust I had in her, but since we weren't engaged it was okay to everyone else. I broke up with her right before I left and I knew it was over, but my parents and her didn't think so."
I just watched him while he spoke, and was excited that he was being completely open and honest.
"So Emmett, Jasper and I came here just to get away for a year. We had never expected to find you guys. But when we first saw you it was truly love at first sight. I of course was too scared to get close to you because I knew what my parents, well mostly my father would think of it. I wouldn't of been able to become king, which meant Emmett would."
We both suddenly shuddered at the thought.
"So anyway back to my father being in Pierce's office that day, the newspapers in England had gone nuts with this 'Prince's Fling' and he came after me. By the time he got here he had already arranged for Tanya to come here and our wedding was already on the way. I pretty much had to choose between you and my family, which wasn't fair because I wanted both. When we went out in the hall together I never meant to say the things I said, you just hurt me to say what we had was all fake. But, I hurt you more and I will never forgive myself. I'm not quite sure how I stayed away from you so long, it was mostly because I was embarrassed at how I acted with you. It was completely and totally wrong."
Just then he sat down on the ground and shook his head in disappointment.
"But Pierce and my brothers truly knew how I felt and they told me that if I could just go along with the whole Tanya thing for a while they would find a way to stop it."
"Wait, Emmett and Jasper were doing research too?" I asked confused.
"Ha-ha, well actually Jasper studied, Emmett was mostly just threatening Parliament to find a way." He laughed.
My mouth dropped. "Parliament? You mean like the whole English government?"
He laughed again. "Yeah it's crazy how much they got into my desperate need to have you. I didn't even know they knew anything until Pierce told me. Emmett I guess had sent out a national emergency that I needed to get rid of Tanya because there was this amazing American girl waiting for me to come back to her. He pretty much threatened to fire the entire government monarchy unless they found a loop hole in the law. In fact his exact words were, 'You idiotic morons created this whacked out law, now fix it, and soon before Edward loses it and I become king.'"
Good ole Emmett… I laughed to myself.
"I think the last part about him becoming king scared them enough to try and do something about it." Edward said still laughing.
"Yeah, it scares me and I don't even live there." I said smiling.
He looked at me with a funny look. Kind of like, 'yeah you don't live there…yet.' and the ends of his lips twitched a little bit as he looked into the water.
"So you guys found the loop hole which Pierce told me and then what…?" I asked him still wanting to know more.
"Well so I had to get Tanya to cheat. Easy enough right? Yep, in fact it was too easy."
"Uh, how do you get someone to cheat on you?" I asked him curiously.
"Ha-ha, well it's kind of a funny story. Okay so when Emmett and Jasper came home it was all a plan to get rid of Tanya. I couldn't find a guy Tanya would cheat on me with and not squeal if I paid him. So I had to use my resources, and people I could trust."
I was getting anxious to know who it was.
"So we used Jasper." He started laughing. "You should of seen his face when I asked him to date her."
I started laughing because I could totally picture Jasper's face, sick with disgust. "Wait…Jasper?" I asked suddenly confused.
"But you see," he continued. "We couldn't make her actually date 'Jasper', so we gave him a makeover. We gave him a French accent with a black wig that we drenched with hair gel. We named him Rufeo, and he was a male model from Paris."
By now he was clutching his sides from laughter, and so was I.
"But how did she feel when she found out she was tricked?" I asked him slowing my laugh down.
He started laughing even harder. "Well you see, we kind of killed 'Rufeo' off."
"Killed?" I asked surprised.
"Ha-ha. Yeah he had an 'accident' in Japan."
"Japan?" I asked starting to laugh again.
Edward soon had tears coming from his eyes. "Yeah, I think the newspaper report said something about strangled from seaweed during a photo shoot."
Soon my eyes were also watering and my sides ached with pain. "No way, you even got the news papers to say something about it?!"
Edward's laugh was slowing dying down. "Well we did have to make it convincing and to show everyone Tanya 'cheated' on me. We took pictures of when they were out, and one that Jasper is not too proud of. Him kissing her, which if Alice ever found out he would die. But yeah, she believed every single part of it though, it was absolutely amazing."
"You guys are crazy good."
He slightly bowed, "Why thank you." and then smiled his crooked smile.
"So when everyone of England read the papers, including my parents, I ended our engagement and said I had someone to go after and left immediately."
I looked away because I was starting to blush. He lightly brushed his fingers against my cheek as he pushed a strand of hair behind my ears that had fallen in my face.
"So what's going to happen now…with the whole you becoming king thing?" Saying Edward was becoming king felt weird, almost impossible.
"Well, I'm staying here until graduation and then whatever happens from there."
"But you still are becoming king though right?" I asked nervously. I didn't want him to give it up just because of me.
"Yeah, I guess I sort of have to."
"Do you want to?"
He took a second before answering my question. "Yeah, sometimes I don't, but for the most part I do. Especially since Emmett is next in line." He said jokingly with a cute little smile.
Then something came to me that was awfully upsetting. "Your parents hate me don't they?"
He looked shocked, almost sad. "No Bella, don't think that. They know who I've really ever wanted, which was you."
I looked out across the lake for a second thinking about how King Carlisle and Queen Esme feel about their son loving someone so ordinary like me. It must be upsetting for them.
For the rest of the day we just laid by the lake, me in Edward's arms starring at the sky laughing and talking. When the sun was finally setting we thought we should head back. I was dying to see how happy my sisters were, and my two best friends, Jasper and Emmett.
That night when we got back to school we had a big reunion with Alice and Rosalie, Jasper and Emmett. It couldn't of been a happier night.

It was finally the end of February, and we all knew what that meant. Billy's six months in Australia was up, and he would be coming home. I was pretty nervous about how he would take the fact that we didn't clean anymore and were dating three princes of England. My guess was, not very well.
"Edward, what is Pierce and Niles going to do when Billy gets back?" I asked him one rainy Saturday morning while we were hanging out in his room. "Since they are running this school now?"
"We haven't decided yet if we should tell Billy, although he'll probably find out with all my secret security and newspapers. We will probably just make Pierce and Niles body guards for you girls."
"Why do we need them?" Having two guys in suites follow us around all day was kind of weird.
"I'm not taking my chances and letting something happen to you Bella." He said in a strong tone.
I rolled my eyes, "Please."
He raised an eyebrow at me. "You actually think you couldn't get into any danger?"
"Yes," I said with absolutely no confidence in my voice which made him chuckle.
"Sure." He said as he rolled his eyes at me.

The next morning sure enough bright and early Billy arrived.
"Get up girls!'' He screamed as he stomped into our room.
"Get off your lazy butts and work! I have yet talked to Mr. Pierce to see how you have acted!" His voice Kept getting louder and louder with each word he spoke.
"Stop yelling Billy." Alice whined with her eyes glued shut.
Billy became furious and ran over to Alice. He grabbed her by the arm and threw her on to the floor making her knock her shoulder on the corner of the nightstand.
Alice let out a whimper as she tried not to cry. Angry at what Billy did I jumped out of bed and ran to Alice to pull Billy off her.
He ended up just throwing me to the ground and stomped out of the room ''Get to work…Now!''
"I'm so glad he's back." Rosalie cheered sarcastically.
"Aren't we all. " I muttered.
Fifteen minutes later we were dressed and headed to the cleaning closet to gather our supplies.
When we had gotten everything we needed we headed off to the first part of the school for the day. As we were walking down we came across Billy who was walking with none other than Tyler by his side.
"What do they want?" Rosalie spat out with disgust.
"Okay girls, Tyler has graciously offered to watch you guys, just to make sure you get the job done." Billy said with a cheerful tone.
I looked over at Tyler to see a stupid smug smirk across his face.
Crap, I wish Edward was here.
Billy walked off and Tyler followed us into the back hallway to 'watch' us work.
I turned around for a brief moment to see Pierce's head around the corner. I looked at him and mouthed the word help. He winked and turned around and started talking to Billy.
"Mr. Black, the girls were absolutely amazing. They were up bright and early everyday doing their chores.. as you can see from how clean it is.'' Their voices slowly faded as I heard their footsteps move away from us.
I love Pierce. I said smiling to myself.efficient
Alice and Rosalie headed off into different directions to get the job done quicker, we rarely cleaned together just to be more .
Suddenly Tyler had gotten awful close to me.
''Come on Bella... you better get working. "Tyler whispered in my ear. "You know, we could get married, and you could clean and take care of me instead of Billy." He grabbed my hand and held it in his.
I shoved him off of me ''Don't touch me! ''I hissed back at him.
He tried wrapping his arms around my waist and putting his face closer to mine. "Oh don't be like that sweetie, Cullen isn't around its ok."
"Get off me!'' I hit Tyler across the face as hard as I could. A small red mark appeared on his cheek when he looked back at me, and then he took his fist and slammed it into my face.
I fell to the floor with pain grasping where his fist hit my head. I tried not to cry but the pain was too much. I pulled my hand down from my face and noticed the blood on my fingers, it started to make me feel woozy.
Tyler bent down and grabbed a hold of me. "Yeah, don't you ever think you can treat me like Swan!" Tyler yelled while I just laid there and cried.
Just then someone ripped Tyler off of me and threw him up against the other side of the wall.
Edward leaned down to me to make sure I was half way okay.
"So Cullen, you finally showed up. Where ya been?" Tyler taunted at him.
"Well if I told you that, then I'd have to kill you." Edward answered back slyly as he stood up to face him.
Tyler laughed in his face. "Yeah, I'd like to see you try."
"Actually, I'd like to see that too." Edward said thoughfully. As soon as Edward was done talking he walked up to Tyler and punched him square in the face.
"Honestly I thought I already broke your jaw, maybe that wasn't enough. Oh, and I think I forgot to mention that if you ever come close to Bella again I will personally hunt you down and kill you myself."
"Bella's not worth it." Tyler scoffed off, which was a seriously bad move on his part.
I heared Tyler's yelps and I looked up to see Edward repeatedly pounding Tyler in the face, and kneeing him the gut multiple times. Tyler finally became so weak that he fell to the ground, and when he tried to get back up Edward grabbed him by the shoulders and threw him into the wall again causing him to fall to the floor for good.
I had never seen Edward so outraged before. Emmett and Jasper finally came running up and had to pull him off of Tyler, I'm sure Edward wanted to strangle him. When Edward was able to calm down a little he ran back over to me and carefully pulled me into his arms. Then when Emmett and Jasper saw what Tyler did to me, they began taking their turns beating the crap out of the kid.
"Bella, Bella…I'm so sorry I wasn't here, are you okay?" His voice was so scared and he stuttered as he spoke.
I could barely get anything to come out of my mouth, but I tried to make Edward not worry so much. "Ouch."
He slowly became less tense and let out a slight chuckle at my response. "Come on, let's get your head taken care of…and did he do anything else to you?"
"No, no he didn't." I spoke while Edward picked me up from the ground.
Pierce and Billy finally came running to the scene to see a very dismembered Tyler and me with a throbbing headache, and a gash above my left eye.
"What the--!" Billy fumed. "Cullen! I want you out of my school!"
That just made Edward even more mad. "Are you joking? That kid just attacked your niece, and you don't care?!"
Billy's face was getting red with furry, "She probably deserved it!" and he jerked me out of Edward's arms making me almost hit the ground but Edward caught me just in time and helped me stand on my feet.
Edward's eyes became filled with hate, and he started shouting in a wicket dark tone. "SHE PROBABLY DESERVED IT?! LET ME TELL YOU SOMETHING MR. BLACK I SWEAR IF YOU EVER, EVER, I MEAN EVER MAKE HER DO ONE MORE DIRTY JOB FOR YOU OR LET ANYONE GET CLOSE TO HER SO HELP ME--"
Pierce cut him off, "Edward whoa back off, I'm sure Bella can't take the screaming right now. Take her to the nurse and we'll deal with this later. As for you Billy, come with me."
"I don't have to go anywhere with you, I own this school!"
Pierce pulled out his secret security badge from inside his suite jacket. "Actually you do have come with me, see I kind of take care of the royal family of England…and Edward just happens to be one of them, and since Bella is dating Edward it is only obvious that I take care of her too."
Billy for the first time actually looked scared. "Royal family?"
Pierce nodded his head, "Yes, Edward is the crowned prince of England...which would make his brothers Emmett and Jasper princes too."
"Bella...your...dating a...a...prince?" Billy stammered.
Though it hurt to giggle, I did. "Yeah, and Alice and Rosalie are dating princes too, isn't it great?"
Edward was still stiff with anger and just said, "Let's go Bella." he picked me up once more and carried me down the hall. "What about Tyler?"
Edward grunted at my question. "My brothers will take care of him."
Oh crap. Tyler's dead.
A/N: Okay how did you like it?? I didn't really know what to write about so this is all I got...if you have any ideas for the next chapters I'd love to hear them!! Please review!! Thanks! :D
P.S. Tyler isn't really 'dead' just really hurt lol but I couldn't really make him die because I think him and Tanya would go good together...also I think Tanya needs to come back to America and gang up with Lauren against Bella one last time before Bella goes off to England! :D But Tanya is going to cause more trouble in England too..hmm, what do you think??
