A/N: This almost didn't get out on time. Thanks to my amazing beta though, it did.

This story is winding down now, only a few more chapters left and then an epi. I am so thrilled at the responce I have gotten for this story!

Legal Begal stuff: Stephanie Meyer owns Twilight.

When Rose called me the first time, I was face down on my bed. I heard the phone ring three times before the machine picked it up. She told my machine that I had better pick up the phone. I just groaned into my pillow; I was in no mood to talk to her.

When the machine cut her off, she called again. When the machine picked up this time, she hung up and called right back. I figured after the fifth time that she wouldn't stop until I had answered her. I was just about to pick it up when it went to the machine. I waited for the phone to ring again but it didn t. Instead there was a loud knock at the door, followed by a very loud "I know you re in there Swan! Open the fucking door!" This was followed by even more pounding on the door.

Fearing her making a scene in front of my neighbors, I pulled open the door to see Rose and Alice standing there in the hall. Rose looked determined and a little scary and Alice was all smiles. They wanted something; that much was clear.

"Guys," I started, "I'm really not in the mood right now."

Rose started to say something but Alice cut her off.

"Nonsense, Bella. Now get dressed, we're going to lunch."

"I already ate." I lied.

"Then you can have some iced tea or something while we eat." Rose stated. "Now get dressed."

I looked between the two women and sighed. "I'm not getting out of this, am I?" I asked, already knowing the answer.

"Nope!" Alice all but squealed.

I held the door open to let them in and headed back to my bedroom to get changed.

I disconnected the phone from the wall jack and turned off my cell phone. Emmett and Jasper had both been calling me non-stop and I was in no mood to talk to them. I should have known that would not work. I was staring at the freezer for what felt like forever. I knew I should eat, but I had no appetite at all. I was pulled out of my search for edible frozen food by a loud pounding at my door.

"We know you re in there Cullen! Now open the goddamn door!" Emmett's booming voice traveled through my solid wood door and straight to the pain centers of my brain. My head still had not sorted itself out from the night before. But in all honesty, I had forgotten that it hurt.

"Thanks a lot, Emmett." I mumbled as I closed the freezer and headed for the door.

I pulled the door open and saw my two best friends standing before me.

"What do you want?" I asked them. Even I noticed that my voice sounded defeated.

"I want to check out the new barbeque place and your coming with me," Emmett told me.

"I'm not hungry," I lied.

"Dude, after last night, you had to have worked up an appetite," Jasper said with an evil wink. "Besides, barbeque makes everything better!"

Damn Jasper and his cheerful mood; couldn't they just leave me alone?

I don't want to go." I told them pointedly. Apparently, they were having none of it. Emmett and Jasper pushed past me and headed for my bedroom.

"What the hell are you doing?" I asked.

"Getting you something to wear," Jasper answered as he tossed out a pair of boxers, socks and a T-shirt. Emmett came out with a pair of jeans and my shoes.

"Get dressed, we're going out," Emmett told me. I sighed and started to change, I knew it was useless to argue with them.

With Alice driving, we arrived at the deli in less than five minutes; it usually took me ten. We piled out of the car and went inside to find a table and place an order. Looking at the menu, I realized that I actually was hungry and ordered a roast beef sandwich and fries. When our food arrived, the girls laid into me.

"What the hell happened this morning, Bella?" Rose asked. Alice grinned and leaned forward, seemingly hanging on my every word.

"I really don't want to talk about it." I took a large bite out of my sandwich hoping it would give me a little stall time. It works in the commercials!

Unfortunately, this is real life and it doesn't work like that.

"Too bad. We are so talking about this." Rose seemed to be picking up steam as she talked. "We are tired of the two of you and your drama. You love each other, even if neither of you have the guts to admit it!"

I was going to argue when Alice cut in. Why does she keep doing that?

"Bella, we know you slept together. Hell, we had to listen to it." I could feel my embarrassment covering my face.

Sensing my discomfort, Rose softened a little. "Listen Bella, your plan worked. You got him drunk and had him spill his feelings for you, what you don't know is that he was planning the same thing and his plan worked too."

"How do you know what we said then, it could have been in the heat of the moment?"

Rose shook her head, "I know because we recorded it. Your conversation I mean." She must have noticed my eyes about to bug out of my head. "We knew that you would never remember it, so we figured this was the only way."

Alice pulled out an iPod and some ear buds and handed them to me.

I took the buds and put them in my ears, and then I pressed play.

We pulled into Joe's BBQ and my mouth started to water. I had heard that they had the best barbeque around but now that I could smell it, my stomach was doing its best to escape my body and crawl into the sauce jars.

We placed our orders and found an empty table to sit down. The guys didn't even wait for our food to arrive before they started in on me.

"You are an idiot! Did you know that?" Emmett practically yelled at me.

"Wow Emmett, way to start a conversation," I replied. "And yes, I am well aware that I am an idiot."

"Your plan worked Edward," Jasper offered. "You got her drunk and she spilled her feelings, and you spilled yours, then you boned each other, then you let her walk out, again."

I dropped my head to the table. Jasper was right, and when he put it like that, I really was an idiot.

"I recorded it," Emmett blurted out as out food was delivered to the table. My head jerked up and I stared at him with wide eyes.

"YOU WHAT?" I screamed. Jasper put a hand on my arm telling me to calm down, but I was too freaked out by Emmett's admission. Emmett however carried on as if I hadn't said a thing.

"I knew that neither of you would remember it in the morning. And what use is talking out your problems if you don't remember it in the morning."

Emmett pulled out an iPod and some ear buds and handed them to me.

"Bella is listening to the other copy right now," Jasper offered. "Don't you think you should hear what you guys said before you go all crazy?"

I took the buds and put them in my ears, and then I pressed play.

I couldn't believe what I was hearing.

Edward was going to finally confront his father on his own?

He still loves me?

I told him about Will?

I told him that I still love him?

I pulled the buds out of my ears and set them down on the table in front of me. All I could focus on was that he wanted to try again.

Alice reached out and took my hands in hers. "Emmett and Jasper are giving the other copy of this to Edward right now. Call him Bella."

I looked at Rose and Alice and they were both encouraging me with their smiles.

I picked up my phone, dialed Edward's number and waited as it started to ring.

EPOV

I couldn't believe what I was hearing.

Will was gay, and Bella was his confidant?

She still loves me?

I told her about wanting to talk to my dad?

I told her that I still love her?

I slowly removed the buds from my ears and just held them in my hand as I replayed the conversation in my mind. It was obvious that we were making out part of the time, and that the sex was more than consensual, but I could only focus on what she had said to me.

Emmett was giving me a barbeque sauce smile and Jasper was urging me to tell them what I thought about what I had just heard.

I started to open my mouth when my phone began to ring. The screen read "Bella".

A/N: So, will he pick up the phone?

Review if you liked it and I'll see you next week!
