Summary: We all know that many vampires have trouble controlling their need for human blood once they've decided to live life like the Cullen family. What if Carlisle, being a doctor, decided to help them by starting a support group? What if his whole family went along for the ride? Hilarity ensues as a group of vampires deal with their addictions.

After the Meeting
Edward had never despised Alice more. Ever. His brother's would never, not for all of eternity, let him forget this. Her cruelty was truly unsurpassed.
He finally reached his current object of hatred. "You knew this was going to happen,"he snarled, "You knew and let it happen! I swear..."
"Edward! Enough of this!" said Esme, "We can sort this out like mature adults when we get home."
Alice stuck her tongue out at him before prancing off to say the necessary farewells to all of those who attended the meeting. Edward was fuming and was not about to forget either what Alice did or that Esme stopped him. They were both going to be on the receiving end of his anger.
Carlisle was dreading the car ride home. Of course he got stuck with the two children he had that were currently engaged in a mental battle. Sometimes their powers really got on his nerves.
The family grudgingly went to their cars, Rosalie and Emmett in Emmett's Jeep and everyone else in Carlisle's Mercedes. Emmett apparently found the situation quite humorous as he couldn't stop laughing, Rosalie was trying to be respectful of her siblings and attempted to quite him, but her own laughter got in the way.
The Jeep got a few miles ahead of the Mercedes so that Edward's ranting couldn't be overheard. But Edward didn't rant, he didn't yell. He just sat there in total silence. His silence frightened his family more than his words ever could.
By the time they got home, Alice just couldn't take it anymore. She stalked right up to Edward and said, "What is going on? Why aren't you angry? Say something!"
"What, me mad? Are you insane? Why would I be mad at my darling sister? I love you far too much to hold your stupidity against you."
"What about Esme? She interrupted what you were going to say at the meeting. Surely you must be mad at her?"
"Nope, not even a little."
Alice threw her hands up in disgust and frustration, just before she stormed out of the room. The rest of the Cullen-Hales couldn't believe what they were witnessing. Edward always had a temper and on a normal day would've killed Alice for her actions today.
The first thought to present itself was that Jasper was possibly manipulating Edward. Alice looked to her husband with a glare that could easily bring death upon the person on the receiving end of it. He quickly shook his head to indicate that he had no part in the slightly bipolar behavior of their brother.
Amazingly enough, Emmett was the first to catch on to what was happening. The sudden intake of breath from the opposite end of the room caught them all by surprise. Emmett stood slightly outside the group of people with wide eyes and his mouth hanging ajar. He looked like he had just found out that Lady Tremaine was truly evil.
"Emmett, what's wrong dear?" Esme asked, slightly concerned at her son's expression.
"Oh. My. Carlisle. I just figured it out." Emmett said, still clearly in shock.
Just then, Edward pranced cheerfully in to the room. "I thought I'd make cookies, since we're all apparently so tense. But, as none of us can eat them, I'm going to take them to my darling Bella. Kisses dears!"
He continued his cheerful trip to the garage, leaving a stunned family behind.
(A/N) Sorry if this is a little short but, to be honest, I don't exactly know what it is that Emmett discovered. If you have a suggestion, feel free to leave it in a review.
If you didn't know, Lady Tremaine is the wicked stepmother from Cinderella. Therefore, all of my reviewers will win...A night out with Prince Charming!! Ok, maybe not.
