Chapter 8 – Contact

"Hey dad,"

"Hey Bells, how was your sleep?"

"Good, it was really nice being here, I cannot believe the girls are just going to let me move in without any thought to it."

"Bella, they are your friends, believe me when I say this, they are two of the best people I've ever met and I am eternally thankful they are in your life."

I started to get weepy

"Dad, thank you for last night." "And thank you for calling in the reinforcements, it's been too long since I got to see everyone." It's been hard these last 6 years, Mike never wanted to spend time with my family or friends so when the boys came home for Thanksgiving & Christmas, I really didn't get to see them, and as of two years ago Mike forbade me to see them or talk to them at all."

"Bella, my God really?" "Did he?" I always thought something like that, I cannot tell you from looking from the outside what control he had over your and your relationship."

"Well dad I'm just hoping that I can be me again, I mean with going to the Cullens today for dinner that will be fun and I'm going to start seeing you more and I'm trying to get in touch with the boys and hope that they don't hate me and hope that they can at least let me apologize to them for the why I've acted."

"Dad, I really love them they are my brothers and I didn't realize how much I missed them until I didn't have them."

"Bells, they will forgive you, they love you, you know that. "

Just then Rose & Alice came in to ask if we were taking Charlie or if he was meeting us ther.

"Hey dad, the girls want to know if we are picking you up and if so what time."

"Nah, you guys go ahead, I'll just take the cruiser, I have an early shift tomorrow and I will probably be heading out before you guys want to go home. "

"Ok dad we'll just meet you there."

"Ok love you kiddo and I'll see you soon."

"Love you too dad, bye"

We had dinner that night with everyone, it was so good to see all of my friends parents again, I introduced Rose & Alice to all of the parents, and they knocked their socks off (of course they would) we quickly came to the conclusion that this needed to be a weekly think, I enjoyed having my family back together again, old and new, now I would just have to work on making up with the boys.

Since we were all living together and working together the girls and I decided just to carpool everyday, we were on the same work schedule so it worked out. I avoided Lauren at all cost and she mysteriously was transferred to another unit, along with her lackeys. I'm sure I might have had 2 birdies going to Carmen & Tanya to explain that this was not a comfortable working situation for me. I was very grateful. On our way home that night we decided to stop in and pickup some take-out from our favorite Chinese place. When we got home we dished up the food and vegged on the couch. It had been a while since I just came home, took my shoes off, sat down, ate and then vegged. It was nice.

"Hey Bella," Alice called to me over her laptop.

"Yeah Ali?"

"Pull open your laptop I just sent you a comment on your Myspace page."

"Ali we are in the same room you could just tell me."

Alice laughed.

"Well that wouldn't be as much fun would it?" She said

I pulled open my laptop and logged onto my Myspace account.

Alice told me where to look to see the comments, so I clicked over on the side bar

Pixielovin has left you a comment

~You are my friend, you are my sister and you are so very special, don't ever doubt that or youself~

I looked up to Alice with tears in my eyes. "I love you too Alice."

I heard Rose clear her throat. I looked over and saw she now had her laptop open too.

"I just sent you one also." She stated

I refreshed the comments page.

American Thighs has left you a comment

~I agree with pixie, I just wanted to add that you are beautiful and have that rockin body of yours and we are going to find that Mr. Green Eyes…I mean that Mr. Right for you someday. Oh and can football start already?? I'm Jonesing for the season to start.~

~Love You!~

I looked over at Rose and smiled. I looked back down at my laptop and left them both identical comments

~You are insane, but I wouldn't have it any other way, I love you~

"Hey Bella, did you hear back from any of your friends request yet?" Alice asked. I looked over and noticed the "You have friends request lite up."

"Yeah let me check." opened the first on:

You have a message and friend request from Southern Gentlemen.

When I saw his name, I screamed I knew it was Jaz. "You guys come here, it's Jaz."

~Bella freakin Swan, you really have a Myspace, when the hell did you become so internet savvy? I thought you would be in the dark ages with Edward forever! God I missed you. How are you?" "How is everything going?" My number is 645-555-5646 give me a call as soon as you can ( I know I won't rag on you for Mike, scouts honor) I just want to talk to you again!

Love

Jasper.~

All of us squealed. I hit reply.

~Hey Jaz,

I hope that everything is going well with you too, I guess you should be one of the first to know, well actually not, your mom, dad, my dad and Esme and Carlisle also know. I left Mike, I'm now living with my two very best girlfriends Rosalie and Alice. You guys would love them, I know I do. I was trying to get a hold of Em & Edward too, I sent a message to Em and Carlisle told me Edward didn't do the whole MySpace thing. My number is 567-213-5794 I know it's like one in the morning there and you probably won't get this until tomorrow but give me a call ok?

Love,

Bella~

The next day Jasper called when I got home from work, we talked for hours like we had never been apart from each other. It was so nice, he told me emailed Em but he was out on a shoot and wouldn't be back for a week or so, he thought he was in Figi. He said he didn't have a number for Edward because the boy wouldn't even return phone calls even if he did try to leave him a message; apparently he was busy with medical school and his job none stop. I told him that was ok I would track him down via his parents if my leads washed out.

The next Friday I had an email from Em

To: bellabear

From: Blueeyedblusher79

Bella, Bella, Beall…my sweet little Bella, how I missed you so. Jaz told me you dumped the Asshat and have now become a free woman. I just have one thing to say IT'S ABOUT DAMN TIME. I miss you and can't wait to hear from you. I was able to finally get my laptop to connect to the internet but it's a horrible connection and the phones are worse, so when I get back to the states you better believe that I'm calling your ass.

I love you squirt.

Em~

Ahh my boys two down one to go.

The weeks went by and before we knew it we were creeping up on Halloween. I had been emailing and calling Emmet and Jaz and we were back into full swing, minus the Asshat I was filing divorce from.

Football was in full swing and we were having the time of our lives living together. Mike kept texting me and emailing me. One day he sent me what that he was going to stop paying all of the bills and let the house foreclose. The only thing he would keep paying on was his truck. I had worked so hard and he knew this to build up a good credit score, he knew that this was the way to get to me. I spoke with a lawyer and they stated that there really was nothing I could do about the house since it was in both out names, unless I wanted to make the 2000.00 payment an month myself. Yeah right with him still living there, in his dreams. But one good thing was all of the credit cards, vehicles and everything else was in Mikes name only which meant even if I was an authorized user on them, if I wasn't on the accounts then even if he stopped paying them it wouldn't hurt me. I called all the credit cards that I was on just to be safe and had myself removed as an authorized user. I emailed Mike and told him that I would drop my car off at the house one day after work and he could do whatever the hell he wanted to do with it. I didn't like it anyways its not like I picked it out, he did, because he said it was the one that he liked…yeah yeah I know my head was up in the clouds.

I woke up in my bed on Sunday morning, in my home. Home it's a word I hasn't used since I left my parents house when I got married. Today was Sunday that meant FOOTBALL. God I love football I mean what normal red-blooded girl doesn't right? Well I'm halfway right I love football, Rose loves football, shoot even Alice loves football, I think with Alice it's mostly for the violence, I think it give her ideas of what she can do to me if I refuse a Bella Barbie session.

I turned to the girls. "Alright ladies, as per a tradition that I am starting right here and now, I will designate Sundays football only day." That means we watch as many games as we want without interruption. And I might add as the season goes on that will include Thursday, Friday , Saturday, Sunday (All day) & Monday night. Anyone got a problem with that?" I asked.

We all started to giggle after all three of us shouted "NOPE" at the same time. "Alright, turn the TV on in your bedroom Alice, that seems like the easiest place for us to get ready." We all hopped in the shower one right after the other, I was actually getting much better at taking care of the primp work myself, plucking eyebrows, using the correct facial toner & lotion without the help of Alice or Rosalie, I do believe they are creating a little monster. After an hour and a half of getting ready, mostly it was us sitting on Alice's bed watching the Vikings and Dallas finish up playing and then switched over to the 49ers and the Seattle Seahawks. It was getting up to halftime and Rose & Alice went over to the mirror to make sure everything was in order on them. I went to turn the TV off, I'm not sure why I paused but it was long enough to see that there was a presentation at half time.

It the cameras swiveled round to a podium that was set up mid field. And I heard a booming voice began:

Ladies and Gentlemen, welcome to this years award for the "Shinning Seahawk" (A/N: Yeah I know not real but work with me) This award is given once a year to an individual or group of individual that are in our community that show outstanding Humanitarian skills.

This person works in the community as a Veterinarian, he is in the process of finish up his last year so you can't call him Dr. yet but he's almost there.

He runs an animal sanctuary and pulled together a summer youth camp that help out children in need this year. He contacted us here at the NFL to see if there was any way we could seen some of our players over as inspiration to the children and help out with some of the activities.

Now we weren't too sure how this would work out you see we had disadvantage children, disadvantage animals and a group of grown men who when they were around either turned into big children themselves.

The crowd laughed.

In the end it turned out very well, we have partnered with this individual from here on out and he is more than welcome to any of our players that he needs for any of his future endeavors.

I saw the man walking out, they had the camera panned back from him and he had his head down in what seemed like embarrassment. But that hair, I didn't know many people with that color hair. Last I heard Edward was going to Medical school in Seattle. Nah, they said Veterinarian, not Medical doctor.

"Hey you guys come here, I screamed, they are giving an award at half time."

"You know I had shit like that, they need to get back to the game." Rose stated

"Aww, I think that's really nice, it's good to see someone get acknowledgement for a job well done." Alice said.

The Announcer began again.

So without further a dew

That's when the man looked up. I feel to the bed and said "Edward." before I could cover my mouth.

I give you soon to be Dr. Edward Cullen.

The girls both looked at the screen, then looked at me?

"Your Edward?" Alice Screamed.

I looked at her, I looked at the screen and I looked over at Rosalie.

"He's so cute!" Alice said

Rosalie looked at the screen an looked over and said. "Does he have a lip ring?" "Well that's pretty fucking hot."

Hey guys we are getting to the good stuff now, I seem to be on a roll I'm going to knock out as many chapters as I can in the next couple of days.
