Chapter 11

Coming Clean

I came to consciousness slowly, my mind already awake, but my body too sluggish to really move. I took deep breaths as I tried to get my stiff and sore muscles to cooperate with my mind.

Gradually I took in everything around me, the smell of flowers and fried bacon, the feeling of soft silk against me, of a small hand holding mine and the sound of soft breathing next to me. It took me less than a second to realize I wasn't at home with my dad, that I wasn't in my own bed, this one being way too soft and oh so comfortable.

Then the nomads flashed through my mind and I opened my eyes.

I looked at Alice, her smile soft and warm, and behind her, in a plush chair, Jasper sat, the book he had been reading resting in his lap as he also watched me with a smile.

I gripped her hand and sighed. They either now knew that I know what they are or they think they should explain now. I couldn't really think about that right now, my whole body slumped in complete relief.

No-one died, the Cullen's were all safe now, and my dad was safe and the nomads, including Victoria, were dead so she couldn't create her new-born army next year. Not that I really think that would have happened anyway.

I sat up, Alice quickly adjusting my pillows so I was comfortable, never letting go of my hand.

I smiled at her in thanks. "Is everyone alright?"

Jasper smiled even wider and Alice giggled next to me moving fast she was sitting next to me leaning over into my lap. "Everything is going to be great from now on Isabel."

Her voice was a purr as she said my name and my face immediately flushed, and then she leaned forward her lips meeting mine in a soft and chaste kiss. Her lips pressed a little firmer against mine and then her smooth tongue licked my bottom lip making me gasp.

She pulled away smiling. I touched my lip, and then startled I realised that Jasper was here too, he'd seen, but when I looked towards the chair he was gone.

I had a second to think before a cold hand gripped my chin and pulled my head in the opposite direction. Jasper was sitting on the other side of me his eyes black as he stared at me and then he kissed me too.

His lips weren't as soft as Alice's and his kiss was firmer more dominant and I just surrendered as he pushed his tongue passed my lips and somehow I could taste both him and Alice as he licked around my mouth.

When he finally let me go, I didn't know what to do or even say. Before anyone could break the ice so to speak a loud crash sounded from downstairs and I felt the house shake for a brief second.

Automatically I held onto Jasper and tightened my hand around Alice's. "What was that? Did one of them survive?"

All the relief from before was replaced by panic, I had thought I'd killed Victoria, but maybe she survived.

Jasper picked me up and placed me in his lap with my back to his chest while Alice straddled my right leg. "No, my lovely, all three of them are gone."

I felt myself relax, although it might have been the small trickle of calm I felt Jasper feed into my body. I leaned back, keeping hold of Alice's hand.

And then I was up again, because in my lusty haze I'd forgotten. "Rosalie, is she alright, those cracks, did she heal?"

Jasper chuckled, the motion jostling me a bit. "She's alright, darling, she actually wants to thank you, she's been helping Esme, our mother, in the kitchen making you some breakfast."

I opened my mouth in protest only to have Alice stop me with her lips on mine again. This time, cocooned in Jasper's arms I pressed into the kiss and the pixie made a pleasurable noise against me as I pushed my tongue into her mouth.

We pulled away at the same time, my breathing heavy. She had a silly smile on her face.

"Yes, Isabel, it's been a whole day! I wasn't worried, since yesterday I can see you now, so I knew you'd wake up."

My hand moved to my wrist where my bracelet had been. "Mm, you need to explain how that worked, my lovely, but my turn first.

Your dad knows you're here, he was very agreeable to you sleeping over, we even get to take you to school tomorrow." She winked at me before continuing, "As for that crash, that was our brother, he's just a tad upset."

I knew immediately who she was talking about, "Edward." Alice nodded though when I glanced back at Jasper he seemed confused. I took a deep breath and felt Alice squeeze my hand in silent encouragement. Of course, my pixie had seen this conversation or a variant of it anyway.

"I know everything about you guys. I know what you are, and I also know you'd never hurt me. I know Edward craves my blood and that is probably why he seems to think I belong to him,"

Jasper growled behind me, tightening his grip slightly while Alice simply scowled and shook her head. "He doesn't want to listen to anyone in the family. We both know you're ours, he's even read it in our minds, but he still thinks he has a claim on you because you're his singer!"

"Alice!" Jasper tensed behind me but I just leaned further into him.

"What do you mean by "I'm yours?" This was different for sure; the books were all about Bella being Edward's mate. How could it be that I wasn't his mate, and could someone have two mates?

Maybe when I came here things changed. I was all for it. If I was their mate I could have both of them and I knew that vampires loved with everything in them, I wasn't worried that our love wouldn't be equal, it probably already was.

Alice just waved Jasper off, smiling as she scooted closer, giving me and Jasper both a quick kiss.

"You're our mate, silly. You already know this; you felt it, even if you didn't know what it meant."

I turned my head to Jasper and smiled. "I do love you, both of you. I denied it for a while, but I had to accept it eventually. I never expected to actually have a chance though."

Alice squealed and pulled me in for another kiss, her lips almost fusing to mine. "I love you too, Isabel."

I smiled, my brain completely mush, before I could react though, Jasper turned my head to kiss me as well. Somewhere in the back of my mind I realised that I might never have a coherent thought again, not if my mates kept kissing me like this. "I love you too, my darling."

I smiled, my head spinning as Jasper pulled me tighter against him, and Alice pressed tighter at my front. I was effectively wrapped up in vampire, each of them breathing in my scent at either sides of my neck.

I was happy, completely ecstatic, nothing could ever ruin this moment for me.

I had no idea how long we'd been just lying there, I was too content to do anything but breathe in the scents of my two mates, I wondered idly how they'd smell if I were a vampire, but the thought was chased away by a knock sounding in the silence around us.

Alice sat up, her golden eyes twinkling. "Rosalie and our mother have breakfast ready for you, Isabel. Are you hungry?"

The thought of food was appealing, but I felt too comfortable, scrunching my nose I just nodded. "Yes, food sounds great."

We stood together, Alice leading the way with Jasper at my back, his hand on the small of my back.

Alice chatted away about nonsense, just filling the silence, as we made our way into the kitchen. I had expected to see Esme there, but instead there was Rosalie making me a plate, Emmett, ever doting, watching her from one of the stools at the counter.

Once I was seated, Rosalie put my plate in front of me, her smile radiant and so sincere, I faltered.

"Isabella, I..I'm sorry, up until yesterday I was set against bringing you into the family. This isn't the life I would have chosen, but you aren't me and deserve to make your own choices. I can only offer advice, but I'm so thankful to you, not only for saving me, but also for loving my brother and sister."

I smiled but before I could respond Rosalie hugged me and then left the kitchen.

Emmett chuckled, "Rose isn't one for mushy feelings, but thanks Isabel, for saving my girl."

I watched him leave, and then picked up my fork to start on the food. It was delicious; it was strange eating something made for me, something I hadn't conjured for myself.

My mind turned to Rosalie's acceptance, would she vote for me when I'm changed. Will I even be changed?

I finished my food in record time and before anyone could say anything I turned to my mates. "Are you going to turn me?"
