Chapter 19
Diamond Man
Bella entered her apartment, only to see Edward sitting there with a bottle of scotch in his hand
"Edward?"
Edward turned his attention to Bella, not even hearing her come home, there were a couple of things Edward wanted to talk to Bella about tonight, but first things first
"We were ratted tonight, we couldn't do what we were suppose to do" he gulped another mouthful of scotch
Bella walked over to him and sat down next to him he set the scotch down and hugged her close to him
"Bella, would you...like to move in with me?"
She looked at him and nodded with a smile "But only after we're married"
He kissed her softly; she dragged him off the couch and into bed.
Johnny was sitting in the living room of his home, in total silence. He heard Renee come in but quickly move away from him. Cullen was becoming a problem, he had heard of the engagement and that just wouldn't do, he knew when they were married a fellow or enemy couldn't touch another mans wife, it went against the code. He needed to do something and quick,
"Boss?"
He heard his right hand man come in
"Sit down Michael"
The barley 24 year old man sat down opposite his boss
"I need you to do something for me"
Jack had come out of Elizabeth's house and was on his way to see Edward to see how it went down. He looked at the newspapers expecting it to be filled with the diamond being stolen but he was only greeted by the sight of job losses in the stock market.
He got a cab to Edward's but found he wasn't there so he went to Bella's when he walked in he saw Edward drinking coffee at the table while Bella was making breakfast he smiled, he was pleased Edward had found someone like Bella. But he didn't expect to be pushed up against the wall by Edward
"What the fuck happened" he hissed at Jack
"Edward calm down" Bella had abounded the eggs and was now holding Edwards shoulder
"I don't know what happened Edward, what happened?"
"Where were you last night?" he hissed, Jack gulped he didn't know what to say but Edward could tell when he was lying so he decided to tell him at least half the truth
"I was with Elizabeth we were talking about old times, I was there all night and you can even ask her yourself"
Edward's jaw clenched and unclenched before he let go of Jack
"We were at the place getting ready when I saw pigs swarming the place, someone must have tipped off the police, because apparently even the police didn't know the diamonds were coming in, they had there own security"
"I don't know from nothing Edward, but I'll help you find out"
Jack had left them alone and Edward placed his hands on the door with his head down
"Edward?"
"If it was him Bella" he shook his head "That man is like a second fucking dad to me"
Bella brought him round to face her and she wrapped her arms around him
"It's ok Edward, things are messed up but they'll get better"
He smiled and kissed her softly, "I don't know what I would do without you doll"
She smiled
Rosalie lay her head on Emmett's chest hearing his steady breathing rise his chest. She looked at him thinking of the things he's done, could she possibly forgive him for what he's done? Maybe, maybe not. He knew what he was doing, but what she didn't understand is why he did them. She was about to ask him last night but they had been...intimate for the first time since...it happened. She didn't know what to do about the baby, she wasn't sure if she wanted to keep the baby. She shook Emmett awake, it was 11:00
"What Rose, what's up?"
"I need to ask you a question" she whispered, her heart started to beat faster
"What?" he looked to her
"Why...did you sleep with them?"
He gulped and he pulled away from her and turned his back to her
"I slept with them because...when you and I weren't having sex..."
Rosalie lips pursed and her temper started to rise
"Wait, are you telling me you slept with them...because we weren't having sex?"
When he didn't answer she saw that as a clear answer
"You son of a bitch" she hissed getting out of the bed and putting on her clothes
"Rose" Emmett stood up and walked to her but he stopped when he saw the glare
"Get out Emmett, before I'm forced to kill you"
Rosalie watched Emmett storm out the apartment just as the man opposite them walked out to get his paper
"Hello again, thanks again for helping me with the boxes"
Rosalie gave him a watery smile "It's ok Seth"
"You ok?" his eyebrows furrowed together and he walked to her "Hey don't start that otherwise I'll start and it won't be a pretty site"
She chuckled "Come in, I'll make you breakfast, I still smell the burning smell from yesterday morning"
Edward brought Bella to the park again but this time sat them near the fountain, he had his head tilted back and let the sun fan his face.
"Awe"
Edward looked to where Bella was looking and saw her looking at a baby
"That will be us soon doll, I can't wait to see you pregnant"
She smiled and kissed me on the lips and hugged me closer to her "God I love you"
"Love you too" he whispered
Elizabeth was washing the dishes when she heard the knock
She rushed to the door with a smile, Jack said he was coming over and, repeat what they did last night.
But when she opened she saw a man wearing a suit and slightly long hair, not Jack at all
"Can I help you?"
"Not really" he said with a cruel smirk
Jasper was with Alice in Rozzo's Café. She was feeding him and she loved how she laughed when he scrunched his face of the sour taste
"I've talked to Edward, but I'm asking him again tonight hun, I'm getting out after this job, I promise you"
She smiled brightly before leaning over and kissing him on the lips
Rosalie laughed as Seth told her about his mum and brothers
"I'm the youngest, and my brothers always used to call me mummy's boy, I always followed her around, asking her if she needed help"
"Awe"
"Tell me about you" he sipped his coffee and watched her smile fade slightly
"I'm an only child, I met Emmett when I was 19 and we've been together ever since"
"That doesn't sound good hun, come on, childhood, favourite memories, what your parents looked like, you fears come on, you know I hate spiders but will never admit to it, I love steak, and you know about my family" Rosalie chuckled at his boyish charm he was so sweet
"Ok, my mum and dad were just...the loveliest people in the world, I got my hair from my mum and my eyes from my dad, I would say I get equal stuff from my parents, I like to look nice but then again I'm a grease monkey, my dad worked as a mechanic and he used to take me to his garage when I was younger, my mum was a housewife and she always let me dress in her clothes, wear her makeup. We lived in a small cottage in Ireland"
"You don't sound Irish"
"When I moved here at the age of 6 I lost the accent, my parents died in a car crash and I've been here ever since"
"Sorry about that" he said "If you don't mind me saying so Rosalie, you need a break, get away from this, trust me us guys are dicks"
She tipped her head back and laughed
"But I am sorry for Emmett cheating on you"
She smiled and leaned over to kiss his cheek, she pulled back and saw his eyes were wide
"What was that for?"
"For being friendly and not a disgrace to the male race"
Edward was driving to his auntie's
"I'm going to ask Elizabeth to be maid of honour"
"She'll like that" Edward kissed her hand as he looked at the road he smiled as he felt her engagement on her finger, he frowned when he saw the pigs were there
"What the hell?" Bella whispered, he cut the engine and both of them walked up
"Cullen"
The new Irish cop greeted them
"What the fuck happened?"
Edward looked to his auntie's door and his blood drained from his face
"Auntie" he rushed to her pushing people out of the way and leaned over her dead body, her eyes were closed and a bullet wound was visible on her blood stained chest.
"Edward"
He looked up to see Bella standing there her eyes pleading with him to come away, he grabbed her extended hand and walked away. Edward looked across the street and saw Jack standing there his expression matched his. Edward was helped to walk over to him by Bella who was clutching him close. As Edward approached him closer, Edward saw his face was full of tears
"Is she..." Jack croaked out
Edward nodded "Jack..."
But jack held up his hand and walked away before getting into his car and driving away.
