The Cullen's Moments of Randomness
Mr. Spider's Wrath
BPOV
My car's engine rumbled loudly, destroying the silence of the cool evening forest. I glanced at my clock, and it read 5:32. I was two minutes late for my surprise. Not that I wanted to go. But I had to. Because...
Flashback
I paced around my room, wondering worriedly where Edward could be. This was one of the first mornings since he returned that he hasn't been here. Suddenly, my phone rang and I ran gracefully over my messy floor to the phone with out tripping or stumbling. Ok, ok. I really stumbled over to my phone and tripped twice before I reached it.
"Hello?" I said eagerly into the phone.
"Good morning, Bella." My angel said into the phone. "Sorry I wasn't there this morning. Alice wanted me to help with her surprise. A surprise for you."
At that I sunk to the ground, clutching the phone so tight that my hands turned even whiter. I choked out the words, "S-surprise? For me?"
Edward chuckled into the phone and said, "Of course for my love. Who else? Well I know you don't like surprises. But, please come over at 5:30 sharp. It would mean the world to me." I could almost see him smiling my favorite crooked smile.
"...ok..." I said dreamily. Is it even possible that Edward can dazzle my over the phone?
"Oh, and Alice says be there or face the consequences. Well, I'll see you then. I love you." He said.
"I love you to." With that I hung up the phone and sighed. This would be a very long eight hours.
End Flashback
I parked my car in their driveway and braced myself for the worst. Pink and white balloons decorated the front porch. They had Alice written all over them. I walked up to the front door and knocked politely. Then I waited. And I waited some more. That was odd. Usually one of the Cullens opened the door before I was even done knocking.
So rang the doorbell and waited some more. What was taking them so long? I was starting to get worried so I pushed the door open.
"Hello?" I called into the silent house. The room was decorated with pink and white balloons and steamers. It looked as if the Cullens left in a hurry. I stepped into the house and closed the door behind me.
"Hello? Edward? Alice? ... Anyone?" I called out again. The house seemed so empty and eerie with out its beautiful and graceful inhabitance. My hands started to shake and get clammy.
"E-Emmet if this is some kind of nasty joke you'd better cut it out. It's not funny." No one answered. I could feel the tears coming, but I swallowed hard and kept looking. I crept quietly into their TV room. A bowl of chips and pretzels sat on the table. Why would they leave so suddenly? Edward didn't even leave a note. Suddenly, I heard a pitiful whimper coming from the kitchen.
"Jasper?" I inquired. I walked into the kitchen and saw the most amazing sight. All the Cullens were huddled in the corner of the kitchen, cowering in fear. They all looked terrified, as if they were meeting their doom. When I say Edward in the midst of the huddle I smiled and started to walk over to him.
"NO! B-Bella don't you come a step closer!" Edward yelled.
I was shocked. Edward had never yelled at me like that before. My eyes filled with tears and I whispered, "Wha…What?"
This time Esme said, "Oh, Bella darling don't cry. Please. It just that... that..." She shuddered and buried her face in Carlisle's shoulder.
Rosalie spoke up. "W-w-what were t-t-trying to say i-i-is..." she choked on her words and looked like she was going to faint.
I looked over the cowering vampires and asked, "Is it me? Do you want me to leave?"
"No Bella!" They all shouted at once. Jasper pointed at something on the floor with a trembling finger. I followed the Cullen's gazes to see the terrifying monster that they were afraid of.
"That's it? A spider? Seven vampires are afraid of one tiny spider, smaller then my toe nail? You can hunt grizzly bears and mountain lions but you can't even put a small spider outside? Or even squish it if you prefer." I asked disbelievingly. They just shuddered as an answer.
"I-I'm not scared of a S-saaa-spider." Emmet said 'bravely'. "I was just, ummm, trying to comfort my baby brother Jasper because he was sooo scared. He went crying to mommy about a big hairy monster!"
Jasper shot Emmet an icy glare and retorted, "You're not scared? YOU'RE NOT SCARED! You Mister 'Big Brother' are the one who almost cried when you saw the spider!"
I sighed and, just to show them how harmless spiders are, bent down and extended my finger so I could hold the big hairy monster.
"Bella, don't you dare touch that thing." Edward warned. But I ignored him and the tiny spider crawled onto my finger.
"Awww. See? He doesn't want to hurt anyone. Mr. Spider just got lost. Come on Mr. Spider, let's go find you a good home." I looked up to see the Cullens staring at me in amazement. I turned on my heel and marched out the back door. Edward and Alice followed me outside to watch me put Mr. Spider on a fern.
When Mr. Spider was out of sight, Alice ran up to be and gave me a bone crushing hug.
"Oh, Bella I can't believe you're alive! You saved us! Thank you, thank you, and thank you!" She shouted into my ear. Edward pulled her off of me and she walked back inside.
"Bella, Bella, my Bella. I can't believe you did that. That horrible monster was absolutely terrifying! Thank you again for save my family and I from that...s-spider." Edward told me.
He leaned in to give me a kiss, when we heard Emmet scream, "EEEAAAHHHH! THERE ARE THOUSANDS OF MINY MR.SPIDERS IN THE KITCHEN!
"Wow." I said. I guess Mr. Spider was actually a Mrs. Spider."
