Perviously on Home,

I sighed and closed my eyes. Bella was my lifeline, without her I would surely forget how to live. I was going to miss her dearly when it was time for me to go back to college. I had two weeks off, so I was intend on making everyday I had with her count. I just didn't want to leave this house without saying that Bella didn't know how completely and hopelessly in love I was with her.

Chapter Five: Christmas Day..

Bella's POV

I was awoke by the smell of bacon and eggs. I opened my eyes to see Jasper leaning against the doorframe in fresh clothes. I looked at him. He smiled.

"Who's cookin'?" I asked. My voice full of what could only be described as sleep. He laughed.

"Your dad." My eyes widdened. I shot up from the bed. "Don't worry, he didn't catch us in bed together. I made sure to wake up early." He told me. His smile never faded from his face. I couldn't help but smile back. He started walking toward me. I jumped from the bed. His face was filling with confusion and hurt.

"I haven't brushed my teeth." He laughed. He crossed the room in long strides and was in front of me. He grabbed me by the waist and pulled me close to him, ignoring my protests.

"I could care less if you brushed your teeth or not." He whispered as he leaned down and kissed me. He pulled away and twirled me all the way down stairs. By the time we got to the kitchen I was very dizzy.

"Merry Christmas, sweetheart." My dad said as he sat food in front of Jasper, Alice, and me. I smiled at my dad.

"Merry Christmas, dad." I said. In all honesty, I had completely forgotten how close it was to Christmas the moment Jasper came home. As far as I was concerned I had already gotten my gift. Him. Charlie handed Alice, Jasper, and me a small box. We opened it. Alice nearly screamed. I just stared in shock. Charlie had gotten us credit cards.

"They're on your name and your account. So if you spend the money you have to pay the bill." Charlie said. Alice nodded, her eyes never leaving the card.

"Okay." I said, pocketing the card. I went to my room and came back down with their presents. I handed them their gifts and sat down beside Jasper. Charlie got tickets for the hockey game and was screaming like a little girl over that. Jasper, Alice, and myself were laughing at his reaction. Alice got a gift certificate to every store in the mall. She was esstaic about that. Jasper had been talking about this book for a while and I got him that. I got hugged by all of them. Charlie liked to have choked me. Alice almost tackled me. And Jasper well he squeezed me and then kissed me. Charlie cleared his throat and looked at us. For a moment I thought that he was going to scold us, but he just smiled. Jasper and I smiled sheepishly. The door burst open and courses of ho ho ho came through the door.

Emmett swung me around and then grabbed Alice and swung her. Emmett placed her convently in front of Edward. Edward folded his arms around her waist and rested his head on her shoulder. I smiled and waved at Edward. He waved back and tossed me a box. I failed at catching it. Jasper caught it before it could hit the floor.

"Nice save." Charlie said. Jasper smiled and handed me the gift. I opened it and almost tore my sister's arms off to hug her boyfriend.

"OH MY GOD!!" I yelled as I hugged him. Edward was laughing. I ignored the flash of a camera. I started jumping up and down making him jump with me. He was laughing even harder, I released him. I looked at his appearance. He was wearing a santa hat. I laughed. He smiled and ruffled my hair. I looked down at the gift again, all the cd's of Kings of Leon. And addiction that Edward and I both shared and smiled again.

Edward, Emmett, Jasper, Alice, and Rosalie were watching as James and I argued.

"I don't want you leaving with him!" James yelled. The him in this was Jasper. He had offered to give me a ride home from school. James didn't want me in the car with him.

"I don't give a damn what you want!" I yelled back. This was getting so old, arguing with my boyfirend over my best friend. Oh yes, I'm going to fuck Jasper in the backseat of his car! Oh yeah! NO! I may be many things but a cheater isn't one of them. I spun on my heel and grabbed Edward's arm. Edward looked at me in shock. "Edward can you give me a ride home?" I asked him. He nodded. Alice had already walked toward the car.

"You really need to dump that dude, Bells." Edward said. "He's no good for you and he's always telling you want you can and can't do."

"I know, Edward. I know." I told him, running my hands through my hair.

"Then why are you still with him?" Edward asked me. I didn't answer but instead looked at Jasper who was being flagged down by Jessica Stanley. Edward seemed to follow my gaze. He sighed. "It's Jasper isn't?" I nodded. "It's always been Jasper. He's going to come around, Bells." Edward said, grabbing my hand and pulling me toward the car. Tears formed in my eyes as we reached the car. One sentence I heard.

"Hey Jasper, you wanna hook up?" Jessica Stanley's voice drifted. Edward, if possible, pulled me toward the car faster, his grip on my hand tigthening.

"Don't think about it." He told me. Alice was watching from the backseat. Her eyes seemed to be fixed in a glare. She was looking directly at Jasper. "He's going to catch hell from Alice." Edward whispered. I laughed. Alice stepped out of the car and looked at Edward and me.

"You two go on, I'll get a ride from Jasper." Her voice was dark. I knew that she was more than angry, she was pissed. I got into Edward's Volvo, he followed. The radio kicked on as soon as he started the car.

'You know I couldn't use somebody..'

The moment the lryics came over the radio, I smiled.

"Kings of Leon." I said. He smiled.

"You know them?" He asked me, his face showed shock.

"Yeah, they're my favorite band." I told him. I never expected someone that Alice dated to know who the Kings of Leon were.

"Mine too." He said, he smiled at me. The whole ride home we were singing the lyrics of every song we heard. By the time he pulled into my driveway, we were laughing.

"I still don't see what the big deal about that band is for you two." Alice said. Edward and I looked at her.

"Because they kick ass." We said together. Jasper, my dad, and Emmett, as well as their parents, started laughing. Alice just huffed and walked toward the tree. Edward and I looked at one another and shrugged. Edward threw his arm around me and pulled me toward the tree.

"You know that you're taking me with you, right?" Edward said. I smiled and laughed.

"Yeah, I know." He smiled and sat next to Alice. Jasper wrapped his arm around my waist and handed me a gift. A small box, I turned and looked at him. He smiled and kissed my cheek. I unwrapped it and opened the box. I almost dropped the box. Inside lay a beautiful ring. A soft pink stone lay in the middle of two diamonds, the silver band was shining in the light. Alice squealed and started clapping. I turned and looked at him.

"I didn't spend a fortune if that's what your wondering. I saved up money from past jobs and stuff like that." He said. I smiled and kissed him. He pulled me toward the arm chair and onto his lap. I smiled and leaned into him. The ring was on my finger. So what if people think that we're engaged, maybe Jessica Stanley and all those other hoes will stay away from him. "I love you." He whispered. I smiled.

"I know." I said. He laughed. This was offically the best Christmas ever..

Offically the End
