Glad to see the reviews coming! More insanity from Esme coming and reasons for her behaviour. If you have any suggestions, PM me or leave in a review. Thanks!

Bella awoke to the smell of frying bacon, her old alarm clock. Her back was feeling stiff from sitting in the chair for so long, she must have passed out a few hours after the events that unfolded. She was sat at the kitchen table, still in her restraints. Pancakes, waffles with whip cream and strawberries and yes, bacon were all in front of her including a glass of orange juice. Esme had a child-like smile on her face, the look of a psychopath.

"I thought this might wake you." But if she was going to eat, then Esme would need to remove the ball gag, "Now, I want you to enjoy this, but I need you to promise me you won't scream. I want you to think about this because if the neighbours hear you and call the police, they'll take me away. But the worst thing will be the media. They will have both our faces on TV, broadcasting, gossiping, and scandalizing 24/7. I know what they can be like. I love you, Bella, really I do. After breakfast, I'll explain everything that happened, then you'll understand. You're going to have some strange feelings at first but then you will realize that we're meant to be together. You think I'm crazy, I know. Now, do I have your word, that you won't make even a peep?"

As much as Bella would love to scream in her face she thought over what she said, if the police came, this would be a field day for paparazzi. The Esme Cullen? The reclusive movie star tied up her daughter? Or whatever the hell she was. She was insane but she also had a good point, she knew this was a manipulation tactic, but a very good one. Esme obviously didn't want to go to jail and have her image and name ruined but Bella wanted nothing more than out of the spotlight and far away from Esme's equally crazy fan base. But then again she would be able to tell her idiot friends, 'See, told you so!' Decisions. She looked her in the eye and nodded, looking up at her with her big doe eyes. Esme undid the strap and finally her mouth was free. As she agreed, she didn't say a thing.

"That's my girl." But then something happened that she was counting on, the doorbell rang hard two times. Esme put the gag back in Bella's mouth in a panic, "Sorry!" She threw her evening robe on over her teddy. She rolled Bella into the bathroom and closed the door. She fixed her hair and out of habit, pushed her boobs up. She was greeted by Alice at the door. Right away, Alice knew something was up, just the way Esme looked at her. "Hello, Alice, good morning!"

"Um, hi, is Bella up?"

"…No…she's still in bed."

"Oh, I was just going to give her this." she handed Esme a small wrapped box.

Esme looked at it blankly and was about to close the door on her, "Thank you, I'll let her know you dropped by."

"Wait, can I ask you something?", this was seriously getting in the way of her day with Bella, there was so much she wanted to do with her. "What did Bella do? As far as I know, Bella would never do anything wrong, believe me, she's the best out of all of us."

"I don't like her hanging out with Bobby. I think he's a bad influence on her."

"Is this about her skipping yesterday?", she didn't realize Esme had no clue about this, Alice could be a dunce some times.

"…Yes! I don't want Bella throwing her life away."

"That was on me, Bobby had nothing to do with it. I practically forced her. Please, don't punish her."

"I'm afraid I'll have to, dear. It's the right thing to do."

"How long is she…"

"As long as I want…I mean as long as I feel best." Alice didn't want to argue with her, she really didn't want to piss her off, who knew what she was like mad. "Nice car by the way!", Esme called to her as she got into her porsche. Alice drove away, likely not hearing her or having the urge to get out of there.

Esme opened up the bathroom, Bella was squirming and muffle screamed some words, "Oh, Bella", Esme chuckled. She parked her in front of the table again. She removed the ball gag once more and…

"HELP! HELP! ALICE! HELP!", Esme was surprised just how powerful Bella's lungs were, she was screaming much louder and harder than she could've imagined. She tried telling her to calm down but nothing worked to soothe her. She put a hand over her mouth and removed it but she kept at it. Bella wasn't expecting what happened next. Esme's lips crashed into hers, shutting her up for good. Her eyes popped out of her head, looking away from Esme and around the room n panic. Her resistant moans died in a few seconds. Esme ended the simple kiss that lasted close to a minute and looked down at her little prisoner, smiling. Bella stared at her in shock.

"Looks like that woke you up!", Esme giggled. Bella couldn't believe how strange that made her feel. It was creepy, wrong, and actually quite good. It was even better than how Bobby kissed her. She didn't want to think about it, she wanted that erased from her memory. Esme fed her the bacon, Bella easily could have bit her fingers, spit the grease in her face but instead went along with it, quiet as could be. Esme wiped her face with a napkin when she was finished. "Now, let me tell you a story."
