Turn That Frown, Upside Down!

----

Bella sat on the couch in the huge mansion that belonged to the Cullen's. Her arms were crossed, her lips were turned down, and her brow was furrowed as she glared at the floor.

"Please smile Bella! For me? For Jazz? For Edward?!" Emmett pleaded. He and Jasper were trying to make Bella happy, due to Edward's orders.

Flashback

Emmett and Jasper were playing Halo on the X-box when suddenly Emmett's phone started ringing. He picked it up.

"What do you want, Eddie-boy?" Emmett growled out as Jasper shot him. "That's not fair! Edward distracted me!"

"Emmett!" Edward shouted. "Pause the game and listen to me. I have to go hunting. Bella should be waking up soon, and when she does, you need to make her happy because I know she'll be sad. Or worse, she'll be mad."

"Did you do something to her? Why will she be mad and/or sad?" Emmett asked, ignoring Edward's command at pausing that game.

"Just make sure she's happy when I get home!" Edward said before hanging up.

Emmett stared at the phone, temporarily forgetting the game.

"How rude,"

End Flashback

And so, that's how they ended up in the living, making silly faces at Bella, trying to make her smile.

Emmett pulled at both sides of his mouth, showing his teeth, and crossed his eyes.

Bella just glared at him.

Emmett cringed. "Fine," He muttered to himself. "I'd never thought I'd have to do this, but…desperate times call for desperate measures. Jasper, stay with Bella. I'll be right back."

He then ran up the steps into his and Rosalie's room.

Jasper shifted nervously before an idea popped into his head. It was a feeble attempt, but at least he could say he tried.

"Let's watch cartoons!" He exclaimed. He grabbed the remote and sat right beside Bella. As long as he didn't take any deep breaths, he would be fine.

He turned the TV on, and Spongebob Squarepants came on. It was the episode where Squidward loves krabby patties, and Spongebob had just said "No, Squidward, I mean, good for your soul," It then showed him with a halo and wings.

"Oh, puh-lease! I have no soul!" It then showed fire around him and a voice did an evil 'Muwahahah!'.

Jasper chuckled and slightly nudged Bella. She jumped and glared at him. Jasper pressed his lips together to hide his smile.

"Oh, Bellaaaaa!" A voice called behind them. Jasper turned, and what he saw made his eye twitch.

Emmett walked in front of Bella wearing only his jeans and one of Rosalie's bras. Of course, he knew she would kill him once Rosalie found out what he did, but right now, he didn't want to get his butt kicked by Edward.

Emmett stood in front of Bella, his hands on his hips. "Don't I look ridiculous, Bella? Doesn't it just make you want to laugh?" He asked.

Bella didn't say anything, but her lips did twitch and her glare softened a bit.

"Emmett, that's just…wrong," Jasper said chuckling.

"Hmph. At least I'm giving an effort!" He shouted and stomped off like a hormonal teenage girl who didn't get what she wanted. He went upstairs and slammed the door shut.

Bella's lips twitched again, but she didn't laugh nor smile.

Jasper sighed and continued watching Spongebob with less enthusiasm.

Emmett eventually came down, and when he did, he tugged Jasper into the kitchen.

"We need a new plan," Emmett said.

"You think?" Jasper asked sarcastically, crossing his arms. "What if we can't do anything, though?"

"Think of it this way, Jasper: what's worse? Angry Bella, or Angry Edward?"

They both thought about it for a minute, then simultaneously said,

"Angry Bella,"

"Wait!" Some random person from the audience shouted. "Why is Angry Bella worse than Angry Edward?"

"Because!" Emmett shouted. He started pacing as he explained. "If Edward comes home to Angry Bella, she won't want to talk to him, making him sad! Then, he'll come to us because we were supposed to make her happy! He'll be angry because we didn't do the job, and then he'll kick our butts!" By the time he was done, he was gasping for unneeded air.

"Ohh…so, it's a lose-lose situation?"

"Pretty much," Jasper answered this time while Emmett had a panic attack.

"Quick! Jasper! I have a plan!"

Bella heard the two whispering to each other, and she automatically became suspicious. However, she narrowed her eyes when suddenly the lights went off. She heard some rustling, and then suddenly, she was lifted up from the couch and thrown over someone's shoulder.

"Emmett! Jasper! Whoever this is, put me down NOW!" She shouted, pounding on the person's back, though it did more damage to her.

Just as quick as she was picked up, she was set down in a chair. She tried to spring up and get away, but ropes were placed around her chest and waist, pinning her down to the chair she was on.

Suddenly, a light turned on. It was a desk lamp, and it was sitting on the dining table. It only lit the fraction of the table that she was sitting at. Emmett and Jasper were sitting across from her.

Emmett's eyes were narrowed, and his elbows were on the table, his fingertips on both hands touching together. Jasper's hands were folded together on the table, and he was leaning forward.

"I'll tell it to you straight, Bella," Emmett started. "If you don't cheer up, me and Jazz here won't be alive tomorrow."

Bella didn't say anything, but turned her head away from them. She wasn't in the mood to play their childish games.

"Look at me when I'm talking to you!" Emmett yelled.

"I think you're over doing it, Emmett," Jasper muttered.

"Sorry,"

"Let's be reasonable, Bella," Jasper said in a calm voice. "Edward has to go hunting every now and then. It can't be helped."

'So, it's the good-cop-bad-cop routine, huh? Fine, I'll play along…' Bella thought.

"I know, I'm not ignorant," Bella growled out. "But he left without telling me. He didn't even leave a note!" She shouted. Tears suddenly sprung to her eyes. "It was like he left me again…" The tears poured over and down her face.

"Jeez," Emmett blinked. "Edward is a dumba--"

"Bella," Jasper interrupted. "Edward's an idiot. Don't cry," Jasper sent out waves of calm, but while he was doing that, realization dawned on him.

"Oh my GOD!" Jasper shouted, slapping his hands to his face.

"What?" Emmett asked.

"I could've just made her happy." He groaned, pulling at his hair.

Emmett stared at the blonde. He was calm on the outside, but on the inside, rage was building.

"Jasper, I'm going to KILL YOU!" He shouted and tackled him.

Bella, despite her crying, thought the situation was quite hilarious, and actually started laughing.

The boys stopped abruptly and stared at her laughing form for a second before Emmett, who was on his knees, raised his arms towards the heavens and shouted,

"Thank you, Lord! We're not going to die today!" He then turned toward the camera, a.k.a. the reader, and said, "No pun intended,"

Emmett and Jasper stood up and untied Bella. Emmett gave her a bear hug, and Jasper just smiled and ruffled her hair.

"Let's go play Halo to celebrate!" Emmett shouted.

"Yay!" Jasper and Bella exclaimed as they started playing.

Yes, good was done today. Bella became happy, and Jasper and Emmett's butts didn't get kicked.

They played Halo for many hours. However they stopped when Edward came home.

Bella set her controller down, stood up, and glared at Edward with her arms crossed.

"Eheheh…h-hey Bella, sweetheart, cupcake…" He said nervously. Jasper and Emmett stopped playing to watch.

"Don't you 'cupcake' me, Edward!" Bella exclaimed. "We need to talk!" She then pulled him by his beautiful, luscious…soft…fluffy…

----Audience member slaps author----

Right! She then pulled him by his luscious hair up the stairs and into their bedroom.

"Ow! Bella, please—OW! Let's talk about this! Ow!"

Jasper and Emmett collapsed in laughter.

"Now all that's left to say, is they lived happily ever after…except Edward,"

The End
