Chapter 16

Bella's POV

As I was walking to Edward's car I couldn't help but think about how my life was going to change in the matter of a few weeks. I was going to be getting married, moving away from home, going to college, hopefully Edward and I will get the apartment I want. Everything was happening at a fast pace, but I didn't care. I liked how everything was turning out so far. Well except the fact that I probably lost my best friends. Emmett won't stay mad for long I hope. He's my brother after all. He's the one person that has to love me no matter what stupid shit I get myself into.

"Bella!" I heard someone scream from behind. When I turned around I saw Rob running toward me." Bella wait don't leave just yet." Rob said out of breath.

"Rob, what's wrong?" I ask. My heart stopped for a second. I thought maybe something was wrong with Edward. I had only been gone for a minute. Could he have fallen in the bathroom and won't wake up. I started too walked back into diner when Rob put his hands on my shoulders to stop me.

"Edward is alright. I just wanted to tell you something that I think you need to know." Rob said letting me go.

"What?"

"Are you and Edward back together?" Rob asked.

"Yes of course. Wait how do you know that?"

"Rose, Alice, Emmett, Jasper, and this other guy I haven't seen before came in to eat lunch earlier. I don't think they saw me, but I was in the back cooking today."

"Okay so what does that have to do with anything?" I was getting confused. Where was he going with this?

"I overheard some things. I know this isn't my place to tell you, but I do consider you a friend Bella. I wouldn't want to hurt my friend."

"Okay so what happened?" I knew Rose and Alice where probably taking about me. And I wouldn't blame them. They were mad. But why was Emmett and Jasper there?

"Bella they tried to make you and Edward hate each other. They were all in on this plan to try to keep you two broken up. Bella, they tried to sabotage your relationship with Edward." Rob said in an apologetic tone.

"What? No you must have misunderstood. I was the one….." I trailed off not finishing the sentence. Rob had got everything wrong. I was the one who tried to sabotage Edward and I's relationship. I was the one with the plan. My stomach started to feel sick all of a sudden. Did Rose and Alice spill the beans on my plan to make Edward fall in love with me, then break up with him? Did they tell Emmett and Jasper, and whoever else was at their table?

"No." I said. I almost started to cry.

"Bella I'm sorry. But friends don't try to hurt one another. They were even beating on how long it was going to take you and Edward to have sex, then how long it would take you two to break up again."

"What!" I was mad now. Why would Alice and Rose say such things? I thought they were on my side. And it's none of their business anyway. That's private between Edward and I.

"Bella I'm not telling you this to upset you. I thought you deserved to know that's all."

I was getting angrier by the second. So all this time I thought they were on my side. While I cried over Edward I bet the high fived each other. They more I ranted and hated Edward they all were probably laughing at me. And Emmett was in on this? I thought I could trust at least my own brother. And Jasper? I guess you can't even trust family anymore.

"What's wrong baby?" Edward asked me. I didn't even notice him walking up to us. I was that mad.

"I AM GOING TO KILL THEM!" I screamed.

"Wait kill who? What's wrong? Did he hurt you?" Edward turned to look at Rob then. Rob started to back away and put his hand up in defense.

"No apparently my best friends, my brother, AND your brother tried to break us up!" I yelled.

"What?"

"Yea. Rob just told me that they were talking about it when they all ate lunch earlier. I swear to god those son of a bitches don't know what coming for them. How can they be so heartless?"

"Wait back up a second. What exactly happened?" Edward turned to Rob.

"I overheard there conversation. They said how they planned to break you guys up. They even beat on how long it was going to take you two to have sex." Rob said.

I looked at Edward. He was fuming at this point. "Edward?" I said softly. I knew he was about to explode.

"I'M GOING TO KILL THEM!" Edward screamed hitting the roof of his car with both his hands. I squinted and turned my head. When I looked back there was a huge dent on the roof.

"Bella get in the car!" Edward yelled going around to the driver's side.

"Edward I don't think you should drive…."

"Bella get in the mother fucking car!" Edward yelled at me. That hurt more that you could imagine. Edward has never yelled at me like that before. I know he's just angry. But he shouldn't yell like that. Especially when there are people around.

I looked back at Rob and mouthed 'sorry' before I got into the car with Edward. Before I could even reach to buckle myself we were out of the parking lot and down the road.

~*&^%~

Edward sped down the long road. I couldn't tell where he was going. His knuckles were white from gripping the steering wheel tightly. He would look at me or talk to me. Every now and then he would take on hand off the wheel and grab a fist full of hair and pull on it. He was trying to calm himself down, but he wasn't very successful.

"Edward maybe we should pull over." I said.

"I cannot believe they would do that to us. Why would they even dare do something that will ruin my life? Haven't we been through enough Bella? Aren't you angry?" Edward said looking at me for the first time since we left the diner.

"Yes I'm mad, but I would really not like to get killed today so let's just pull over and talk about this." I said looked him in the eyes. Edward realized what he was doing was dangerous. He slowed down and pulled off into the grass and parked the car.

"Thank you." I said feeling relieved.

"I'm sorry I yelled at you. I just can't believe it." Edward said putting his forehead on the steering wheel. I rubbed his back to try to comfort him.

"I know. It's even worst that our brothers were involved. I thought Emmett was on my side." I said starting to tear up.

"Emmett was the one convincing me to ask you out again. He help me win you back Bella." Edward said looking at me. He also had tears in his eyes.

"I don't understand why they wanted to hurt us when they all knew that we don't function without one another." Edward said.

That got me thinking. My plan from the beginning was to hurt Edward. It didn't turn out the way I wanted it to, but still, my intentions weren't good. Will Edward hate me too if I tell him? Will he really break up with me for good this time? Am I ready to take that chance?

"Bella?" Edward pulled my face to look at him. "What are you thinking?"

I didn't know how to answer that. Do I tell him about my plan and hope that he understands that I really do love him and won't hurt him? Or do I just lie and blame everything on Rose and Alice?

"I don't know." I said.

"Bella I love you." Edward said.

"I love you too." I said really crying now. He's going to hate me when I tell him how I wanted to hurt him.

Edward leaned in to kiss me and I didn't hold back. I kissed him with as much passion as I could.

"Tell me you love me again." Edward said after we pulled away from me to catch his breath.

"I love you. So much that it hurts when I'm away from you." I said honestly. I was crying, but it wasn't tears of happiness. I was crying because I almost hurt Edward. I lead him on, thinking that I could just end things. But I'm not that much of a bitch. I let my feelings get in the way. I let my guard down and let myself fall in love with him again. Nothing will be the same between us because I will always have this secrete.

I hope that Rose and Alice don't tell him. Or even Emmett and Jasper. If anything, Edward needs to hear it from me. But I'm not ready to end our happily ever after just yet.

"Forget the wedding. Let's go to the court house right now and get it over with. We can have a party with flowers and balloons after everything is said and done. I can't wait another moment without you not being my wife." Edward said with a smile. How could I deny him anything now? After all I did to him it's the least I could do. If he wants to get married right now I'll marry him.

"Okay." I said smiling back at him.

"Really?" Edward asked.

"Yes really. Let's go. I don't want to waste another minute with the last name Swan. I want to be a Cullen!" I said kissing him one more time.

"I love you." Edward said.

"I love you too." I said.

Edward started the car and turned around to drive back to town.

I was getting married at 18.

I was getting married because I feel bad about my plan to hurt Edward.

I was getting married because I hate my friends and brother for wanting to keep Edward and me apart.

I was getting married in an old t shirt and jeans.

I was getting married without a family member at my side to witness it.

I was getting married to Edward. And that's all that mattered.

AN: So like always tell me what yall are thinking.

Should they get married? Or should they wait?

I have only 3 more chapters for this story and an epilogue to top it off. I'll try my best to tie up all the loose ends in those 3 chapters and keep the plot going. So the next chapters should be longer. YAYY!

~UNTIL NEXT TIME~
