Chapter 3: Edward, Don't Spoil The Fun!
Edward's POV
Alice was incessantly singing 'It's A Small World' over and over again in her head and it was driving me over the edge. I hadn't really been paying attention to her thoughts while she had been with Bella, after all I had been having a talk of my own with Carlisle. I wondered what those two had been talking about that she wouldn't want me to know.
It's a world of laughter, a world of tears. It's a world of hope and a world of fears. There's so much that we share that it's time we're aware it's a small world after all! It's a small world after all, it's a small world after all, it's a small world af……
"AAAALLLLIIIICE!!" that was it, I knew that she must have picked the most annoying song on the planet because she knew that it would get to me. I absolutely hated that song, especially after an unfortunate incident in Disney World several summers back. Let's just say that those little animatronic children could be slightly traumatizing….but let's not go there.
Oh, come on little brother, don't spoil my fun! Besides, after that little talk you had with Carlisle I figured you could use a little distraction from the thoughts currently floating around in that crowded head of your's.
"Alice, don't bring that up! I can't believe you even saw that, why would you have a vision about that?!" I can't believe that Alice would even think about that! And with Bella around! Had she lost her mind?
"Well, that's not all that I saw!! You've been doing some thinking!" Edward, I didn't tell her, don't worry. I know you want it to be a surprise! But hey, Congratulations! Great, she was mocking me.
"Edward, what's going on?" Bella questioned me, utterly confused.
"It's nothing Bella. I'll tell you later." I think she knew that I wasn't going to tell her later but she just accepted my answer and sat silent while I continued to argue with Alice.
Bella's POV
There was something that Edward wasn't telling me, something that Alice had seen in her vision and that I think she was getting ready to tell me…that is, if Edward hadn't interrupted. Why did he always have to spoil the fun? Alice was going to tell me a secret and then he thinks that he can just barge into the room and start yelling. Wait, it is his room, so I guess he can just come in whenever he wants. But why was he so upset with Alice? And why was she so amused by his growing anger?
I had asked him what they were fighting about, but he just said that we would talk about it later. I could tell by his voice that he wasn't going to tell me but the death glares that he was sending in Alice's direction and the fact the he hadn't even looked away from her to speak to me told me that now was not the time to interject.
"I just don't understand why you can't keep your mind out of other peoples' business, especially when it's personal! You're so inconsiderate, Alice!"
"Edward! I cannot control what I have visions about, you should know that by now!"
They were both about to rip each others heads off, and they had me cowering on the edge of the bed while they just stood there and screamed at each other.
Esme's POV
I heard Alice and Edward arguing in Edward's bedroom. Though they were both yelling so loud, I think that the entire population of Forks could hear them screaming at each other about something that had to do with Bella, I think.
I cautiously climbed the two flights of stairs to the floor Edward's room was on. If they knew that I was coming, they showed no sign of it; they just kept on yelling. Edward was irate! I mean he was absolutely furious! Alice sounded slightly confused, but angry all the same.
I very carefully cracked his bedroom door and peered in. Poor little Bella was sitting on the bed looking absolutely petrified, Alice was standing on the far side of the room looking at Edward with a slightly smug and knowing grin on her face. Edward, my perfect son, held a powerful stance between Alice and the door. He was slightly angled so I could see his eyes shooting daggers at Alice and his hands were at his sides balled into tight fists. Though by now they had to have realized my presence, they ignored me and continued in their argument.
"Children!...CHILDREN!...ALICE, EDWARD!! QUIET DOWN THIS INSTANT!!" I had never yelled at my 'children' like that before. If they hadn't been acting so horribly, I would have felt almost sorry for raising my voice at them.
I could tell that they were surprised by my outburst. They immediately ceased their argument and Edward whipped around to face me completely. All of their eyes were on me. Edward's hands were stilled in fists but his face showed udder shock. Alice was just staring at me, mouth agape and poor little Bella was now even more terrified than before and had begun to slide over on the bed, hiding her face behind Edward's back.
ATTENTION: I'm going to be posting a oneshot soon of Edward's "talk" with Carlisle, so if anyone is interested in what it was about (I think it will make for a better understanding of the story) then you should check it out. It will also include Alice's vision about Bella and Edward. PLEASE R&R! Enjoy!
