I don't own Twilight

6. I only met you and we have problems!

EPOV

I leaned out of my Volvo to ask the guy where to find the building. He looked at me like I was an idiot. I tried not to look offended but I asked him the same thing again. He turned to look fully at me with the same suspicious expression. I stared at him. Was he deaf? That was a possibility. I used my hands to show him what I wanted. That just got him scared.

"Okay….." I said exasperatedly watching his retreating back. He hadn't been of much help to me. I turned and rested my forehead on the steering wheel. This wasn't great at all. Why in the wide world did Alice have to send Jasper's lunch with me?

"Excuse me….!" I called to a little girl. She turned and looked at me with weary eyes.

"Um….could you tell me where this building is?" I asked feeling really tired. She glanced at the paper I was holding and then back at me.

"Are you new here mister?" she asked looking at me as though I had lost my mind. I nodded miserably. Blow Alice!

"Could you just tell me where it is?" I asked again.

"You're kidding right?" she asked me laughing.

I shook my head getting irritated. Were all the people in this place so helpful!

"You are standing in front of it….." she said pointing towards the building right in front. I opened and closed my mouth. I didn't care that I probably looked like a fish.

"Uh thanks…" I said somewhat sheepishly. The girl smiled at me before turning and running off, her blonde locks bouncing.

….

"Edward! How the hell are you?" Jasper asked me when I entered his office. I placed the box containing his lunch on the table. His hazel eyes twinkled. I groaned before sitting down on a chair.

"Well you don't look so good…" he said standing against the desk observing me with an amused smile. I looked at him before dropping my head into my hands.

"Alice."

"Oh…she got to you did she?" he asked and I could tell he was trying to keep himself from laughing.

"Well she, as a cousin is…is terrible to go shopping with….." I said trying to ease the irritation. Jasper snorted. They had gotten married just a year after high school. As much as I had tried to dissuade them from the idea then, now I was sure they couldn't have done better.

The door banged open and a loud voice followed, "Jazzy! Have you seen the-"

"Emmett meet Edward, Edward is Alice's cousin, and Edward meet Emmett, my colleague."

I got up and turned around slowly trying nit to let my irritation get to me. Emmett was a huge. I mean huge, guy. His eyes widened when he saw me and there was a spark of recognition in his eyes, his mouth to the form of an 'o'. I faked an enthusiastic smile.

"You're Edward…" he said and his eyes flickered to my hair and back. I nodded trying not to care for his weird behavior.

"Oh my god! This is him?" Jasper asked looking at me and then at Emmett. Emmett nodded silently.

"Am I missing something?" I asked sure that they knew something I didn't.

"Bella…is my sister." He said softly. It was my turn to gape. Emmett was Bella's brother, She wasn't lying when she had said he was strong, just looking at him made me feel tiny.

"Uh…..hi., Emmett."

"We have to talk…" he said his eyes narrowing.

Uh oh….

BPOV

I stretched as I got out of my truck. Alice's place was just the same. Her Porsche was standing in front but Jasper's BMW was missing.

"Bella!" her excited squeal came from the front door. I cringed. Oh dear….

"Hey, Ali" I said trying to fake excitement. She noticed and her face fell.

"I missed you!" I said trying to greet her the Alice way. The hug I gave her wasn't enough for her but I decided that was more than enough.

"Bellsy. Is been ages since I've seen you. How are you?" she asked plopping down on the big couch. I sat down next to her. Alice sitting down meant something was up…..

"I'm good. How about you?" I asked feeling a little silly. Did friends greet each other like this?

"Yeah…..I'm doing great!" she squealed her voice an octave higher. I looked at her face suspiciously….Alice was like this only when she played matchmaker or she was planning a shopping spree.

"Alice…..? Do you want to tell me something?" I asked still studying her face. Her cheeks reddened slightly and she looked down.

"Bella…uh…I….well…I'm pregnant!" she screamed. I didn't know what to do. Was I supposed to applaud or cry? She seemed to be showing both emotions on her face. I saw her eyes and realized that she was crying.

"Ali….What's the matter? Aren't you supposed to be happy? The joy of motherhood and all?" I asked, putting an arm around her. She sniffled.

"What if….what if Jasper doesn't want a baby?" she asked silently. I could barely catch that.

I almost laughed but I felt that a laugh would seem most insensitive in this situation.

"Alice….come on! Jasper would love to have a baby. You didn't even tell him right?" I asked. She shook her head.

"You have to. But knowing Jasper, he would love the idea of a baby." He would make a great father, like Edward…..I stopped that thought in its tracks. I blushed. Silly Bella.

"I am hoping so." She said wiping her eyes on a tissue.

"When did you find out? How far along are you?" I asked when I thought the silence was too great.

"Three days ago and two months along…." She said slowly placing a hand on her stomach. She wasn't showing. I smiled.

"Congrats mommy….." I wished her. The answering smile that lit her face was brilliant.

JPOV

I sat in my chair trying to get the irritating thought out of my head. But it was persistent and nagging.

Alice was hiding something from me….

I closed my eyes for a minute. Why would she? Was it important? A surprise?

But this was not my Alice…She was so silent for almost two days. Whenever she caught my eyes she looked like she was going to cry….

Did I do something wrong?

I knew that I would have to ask her about it eventually. I got up and pulled my briefcase off the floor. I knew that my one destination now was my house…..Alice…..

…

"Ali!" I called. I could hear the TV being switched off.

"Jazz you're early….." she said looking nervous. I scanned her face for any signs of anger, neglect, hatred, but I only found unadulterated nervousness.

"Uh….yeah….I thought maybe..-"

"Jazz we need to talk." She said firmly. I stared in surprise. I had been about to say the same thing.

We slowly walked to the living room. Her hands were playing with the front of the button up shirt. I waited for her to say something.

"Jazz…I have to tell you something…" she said looking at me sorrowfully. My mind went to all possibilities. Were we moving? Was she going to get a divorce? Did I hurt her? Was she with someone else? Was she ill? Was she….

"Jasper!" she yelled trying to get my attention. I shook my head and nodded. I stuffed my hands into my pockets.

"Jasper I'm…I'm pregnant" she whispered looking closely at me. I felt a shock go through me. My eyes immediately went to her stomach. Still flat. Was this what she had been hiding from me?

"Alice….Is this what you were hiding from me?"

She nodded sadly.

"Why?"

"Well….I thought that maybe…well maybe you might hate children or maybe its too early and you'll hate me…" she said her eyes tightening.

I pulled her into my arms.

"Alice! Oh my god! I am upset. But only because you didn't tell me earlier. When did you find out?"

"Three days ago…..I'm two months along…" she said into my chest. Her tiny for shaking with happiness. I pulled my lips down to hers.

"I love you Ali!" I said before kissing her.

We were going to be parents!

LPOV (Luke)

I slowly tossed up the ball and caught it. This was what I did when I became frustrated, angry, nervous, etc. Rach had come over and she hadn't spoken to me at all. I threw the ball and caught it…again.

"Luke! Open the door honey!" Aunt Bella called. I got up slowly and made my way down. At least I could be sulky now, Auntie never minded.

"Luke….You look upset…" she said when I pulled open the door. I grimaced. Her tinkling laugh pulled me from my 'sulk'.

"What's so funny?" I asked her curiously. Her eyes were alight, shining brightly. To my surprise she pulled me into her arms and kissed my forehead. Okay…..? What had happened to her?

"Nothing…What would you like to eat? I was thinking of pasta…"

I stared after her as she walked….no danced into the kitchen…Weird.

The phone rang. I walked slowly up to it and picked it up.

A/N: Luke's words will be in bold and the other person's normal.

"Hello?"

" Susan? IS that you"

"Uh yeah…Luke I was wondering if you'd come to my birthday party tomorrow?"

I considered that…I never went to parties…..especially not birthday parties. They were silly and girly and people slapped cake on others…Rachel was the only girl who's parties I went to.

"Okay….What time?"

"Uh…..at five p.m."

"Wonderful…..I'll be there"

"Okay…Bye…."

"Yeah…Bye.."

I turned around and saw Auntie standing there looking at me with a raised eyebrow.

"Uh…..hey.."

"Luke…..What's wrong?" she asked me softly.

"Uh…..nothing….I gotta go…." I said rushing into my room my face burning.

I could feel Auntie's eyes on me.

BPOV

I watched him dash up the stairs. Poor guy….He had been acting weird the entire weekend and now he was goin for a party….a birthday party.

The phone rang just then. I turned around and picked it up.

A/N: Here Bella's will be in bold.

"Bells?"

"Emmett? Is that you? What's up?"

"Bella…..uh….I'm coming home…now."

"What's wrong?"

"Nothing's wrong"

"Okay then…Bye."

I heard the dial tone. My eyes widened. Emmett never came home early unless there was an emergency. I turned and entered the kitchen again. Back to my favorite job…cooking.

…..

The front door opened. Luke was washing up the dishes while I was clearing the table. I heard Emmett's loud voice float to me another voice followed but I couldn't hear that well.

"Bellsy!" he called loudly.

"In here!"

I turned the moment they entered. Emmett and….Edward. I looked at Emmett and then at Edward. Both looked fine. There was a small smile playing on Edward's lips.

"What's up?" I asked turning back and pulling the last dishes into my hands.

"Edward's nice." Emmett said bluntly. I heard Edward chuckle. Okay….That was just weird.

"I'll be back."

…

I was staring at Edward. His eyes were soft. Emmett on the other hand looked upset. His eyes kept darting between us. As much as I wanted to tell him to stop fretting, I held myself back. I didn't want to disturb the connection between Edward and I. His eyes were intense. And though he wasn't aware of it, they were doing so much to me that he wasn't. I almost moaned there.

"Will you guys knock it off" Emmett grumbled.

I giggled.

"Sure Em."

"I can't believe that-"

The shrill sound of the phone pierced the air.

Emmett huffed before getting up and moving to the kitchen. I exchanged a small smile with Edward.

"Edward…." Was all I had to say for him to take me in his arms and kiss me. The kiss was ever so gentle. His warm mouth felt amazing against mine. My hands tangled into his hair as we increased the intensity. His hands were on the little part of the skin that my T-Shirt exposed.

I heard a throat being cleared. We jumped apart. I knew I was blushing like an idiot now.

"Bella dad called." Emmett said sadly.

I turned and looked at him shocked.

"What did he say?" I asked feeling my blood go cold. He didn't know did he? I had been so careful.

A/N: Okay…So how was it? A bit too slow maybe? My brain is not working properly. Sorry for not updating for soooooo long. Please review. And please give me your suggestions to improve the story. I'd love to have suggestions. Please review.
