I only play with the story I own nothing.

Rose shut the door as they moved into her room. "Strip." She ordered as Bella made to sit. "Excuse me?" Bella choked. Alice chuckled. "Your shirt has blood on it." Bella sighed but stood and took her shirt off. "La Perla and your handbag is Para give." Alice started and squealed as Bella turned around. She had slid her pants off and they could now see her belly button ring. The boys moved as one on Alice's screech. The door slammed open and every one froze Bella turned three shades of red as she moved to cover herself. Jasper and Emmett chuckled and started to move away but Edward was frozen. He would have been drooling had his mouth not dried up. Oh God she was heavenly and that Belly button ring with the cherries he swallowed hard. Emmett tugged hard pulling him from the door way. "Sorry." Alice shouted. "Oh God Bella that is so cool." She squealed again moving forward to look at it. Bella blushed but her heart rate was calming down. "I got that about six months ago." She said calmly as she tugged a shirt on. "Ok nose belly button what else?" Rose asked handing her some jeans. "Tongue and toes." Bella said sticking her tongue out. "How did we miss this?" Alice asked looking at Rose. "It is clear and tiny most do miss it." She took her socks off and showed her toes. "Shit." Rose gasped. "Rubies and emeralds in your toes?" Bella nodded and put her socks back on like it was no big deal. "How did you get your parents to go for that?" Alice asked sitting next to her. "My mom died when I was born and my dad thought I needed girly things as I was around just him and his body guards." She stood hearing Esme call for them. Alice and Rose looked at each other that was some big news there.

"You have to show dad." Alice said hopping down the stairs. "That is so cool. Hey dad guess what..." Bella stopped as Edward moved to her side. He had been dragged down stairs and ribbed by the other two but dam she was hot. "I am sorry..." He stuttered and stopped even thinking about the cherries hanging against her skin now had him hard. Bella blushed and shook her head. "Bella gems?" Carlisle asked moving into the foyer. Bella backed up towards Edward. "Sir." "I would like to see them." He motioned to the living room. She sat and took her socks off. She thought she heard Edward groan but knew she was mistaken. Carlisle looked at them. "Wow I have heard about them may I see the rest." He asked in awe. Bella risked a glance at Esme she smiled warmly and nodded. Bella lifted her shirt and she was sure she heard Edward that time even Jasper made a nondescript noise. Bella then stuck her tongue out and all three boys whimpered. Alice giggled. "And you can see my nose." She whispered.

Dinner was surprisingly calm after what had happened before. The conversation flowed from one kid to the next as they went over her day and it was about to cover Bella but dessert was over. "That was wonderful Mrs. Esme." Bella said taking a load of dishes to the kitchen. "Thank you dear I am glad you enjoyed it." Bella smiled and moved to the living room. "Rose I should head home." Rose nodded getting off Emmett's lap. Bella was putting her coat on as Edward moved behind her. "Let me help." He said causing her to jump immediately biting her lip. Stop he shouted to himself it was a battle of wills to pull her close and nibble that lip himself. "Thank you." Her heart was hammering so hard she was afraid he could hear it. "Bella. Charlie just called back and wanted to know if you could stay he is having some trouble at work and will not be around until late. He was happy you met the girls he forgot your appointment today. He said sorry he is not used to having a kid around." Bella nodded softly. "Come on I will get you some jammies and set up in the guest room." Alice said shoving Edward out of the way and tugging Bella back up the stairs.

Bella laid the pajamas on the bed frowning slightly it had been years since she had worn something like this. She shrugged you will make do and be happy about it she told herself. Slipping past Alice's room she moved down stairs to find Mrs. Esme and did not want Alice and Rose to know what she was going to ask she was embarrassed enough. "Mrs. Esme." She said softly as she located her and Carlisle in the living room. "Just Esme dear did you need something?" Bella looked down knotting her hands. "Come on honey we can go talk in the front room." She stood patting Carlisle on the knee. Bella stood looking out the window as Esme sat. "I feel stupid. I should know but daddy..." She broke off swallowing hard thinking about him hurt to much. Inhaling sharply she turned. "How do you do laundry?" She blurted her face turning scarlet. Esme sat shocked for a second and then giggled. "Oh I am sorry Bella I was thinking this was going some where else." Bella looked at her puzzled for a minute then smiled. "Maria taught me about all that when I started last year that is ok but daddy..." Again she took a deep breath. "Said I should know about some of daily life but I was never going to be common..." She trailed off her voice faltering as she realized how it sounded. Esme hugged her as several tears fell. "Of course I will show you." Moving them into the laundry room she went over the basics.

Bella lay awake long after the others had quieted a strange bed in a new house after all that happened finally she got up and texted Ty his response was quick and he was happy she met the girls, she asked that he change her appointment for all of them on Saturday. He was happy to accommodate her. Finally she knew there was nothing else to go over and told him good night and sitting by the window watched the moon and stars float across the sky. She must have fallen asleep for she was choking again on the smoke her father to far away to reach no matter what she tried. Some one was holding her back she was fighting to get free, what was that noise some one screaming she had to get to him first then to who was making the noise... Edward tried to pull her back into his lap she was screaming and fighting him with all she had. He had woken minutes ago to her initial shriek he hated to see the pain and anguish on her face when he moved in even in her sleep. When she had lunged towards the window he snagged her around the waist and tried to hold her but her dream was violent and she was fighting him. The last breath she pulled her in had her coughing and her screams were quieting he looked over at his mother and father as they entered. "How do I help her?" He moaned. "Hold her." Carlisle said moving closer. "No Daddy." Bella shrieked as her body shook and went limp. Edward continued to rock her back and forth as he ran a hand over her cheek and through her hair. "God that was horrible." Alice whispered from the door. "What happened to her father?" Emmett asked but no one had an answer for him. "Lets get her into bed." Esme suggested pulling the covers back. Carlisle checked her back making sure his stitches held he just put the tape on when her phone went off. The text was from Tyson and said, Cherry bug it will be alright. "What does that mean?" Jasper asked as they moved from the room. When Bella woke in the morning she hurt every where but moved to get ready for school. No one mentioned the nightmare she had but all thought she looked strained and tired.

Friday night she had just taken the first load of laundry from the dryer and all looked alright as she started folding it. She had showered and was dressed in her pajamas this pair was her favorite, moving to the couch she folded her pants and underwear she was about to head upstairs with it when the bell rang. It startled her it had never rung in the week she had been there. No one visited Charlie. She wrapped her arms around her waist as she moved to the door should she just open or ask who it was. "Bella it is Rose let us in." Rose called Bella sighed and opened the door quickly. "Hi what are you..." She broke off all of them were on her porch. Emmett's jaw dropped. "Holy shit Bella." She blinked and spun moving upstairs. They moved in quickly with Alice racing up the stairs after her. "Bella where did you get those?" She asked as she shut her door. "I...I ordered them..." Bella gulped as Alice lifted her arms. The top was like a sports bra with handkerchiefs over it showing off her stomach and her pants hit mid calf but laced together on the sides and a cherry hung down as the material was lacy it was see through. Bella threw her robe on before they headed down stairs. "I am sorry I did not expect visitors and I did not think when I answered the door." She said to them her face aflame. "No problem I think you and Rose need to talk about night wear." Emmett said and ducked knowing she was going to slap him but she just nodded. Edward stood stiffly behind the couch knowing she had that still on under her robe was not helping him calm down. "Why are you here?" Bella finally asked. "Oh Charlie called dad and he has to work over night so we are here to spend the night." Bella sighed Charlie was being silly she could have handled being alone. "You did not have to do that." She said wringing her hands. "Nonsense we are happy to do it." Alice said bouncing to the television. "Movie." She called as one flew at her. Together they watched a movie after Bella moved her laundry horrified to find her underwear on the table for every one to ogle at, by the second movie most had fallen asleep. Bella had curled up on the corner of one of the couches and Edward on the other end. When she whimpered in her sleep during the second movie he pulled her to him rubbing circles in her back calming her. She woke sprawled on top of him, her face on fire she moved carefully and when he woke she was getting dress.

When she moved back down Edward was stretching he had heard and felt her leave and was not happy about it. Swallowing hard as she smiled at him and moved into the kitchen he flopped back on the couch. She was going to be death of him that outfit oh God who would have thought a tank top and jeans would shoot lust like that through him. Jasper chuckled watching Edward Bella was really clueless she had no idea the effect her actions had on him. "Go talk to her." He mumbled kicking at Edward. Swallowing and licking his lips Edward stood up and headed to the kitchen. "Bella." He said softly but she jumped and squeaked anyway. "sorry I was wondering if I could help." He ran a hand through his hair. Bella's breath caught God he was hot. "Thanks I am making French toast but Charlie has no almond liqueur." Edward blinked. "What?" He said moving closer. "Never mind we will just do with out it." Bella was muttering. He watched her move her shirt riding up slightly as she reached over the stove he longed to run his fingertips between her jeans and shirt. She spun with a plate of hot food and he cringed and heard Emmett. "That smells good." Then he heard his foot steps. The group quickly made the next few stacks she produced disappears. Blushing at each compliment.

"Bella there is a limo out front." Alice said as she stood to take her plate to the kitchen. "Mmmm." Bella murmured as she took another batch off the stove. Rose and Alice looked at each other. "Who is driving?" Her voice was distracted as she put more bread on the stove. "Looks like a enforcer for the mob." Emmett said his mouth half full. Bella stopped. "What?" But it clicked she sprinted for the door flinging it open flooding the house with cold air the rest moving after her just as quick. "Markus." She cried sprinting and leaping into his arms. The burly man caught her carefully and spun her around.
