I don't own twilight

Bella flopped down on the bed and buried her head, She knew she had to call her father but she was dreading it. She heard Alice rummaging around in her closet and wondered what she was doing. She lifted the pillow from her head and peeked out.

"What are you up to?"

"I'm going over to Jasper and Emmett's for the night, so you have the room to yourself." Alice threw clothes into a duffle bag and went back to looking through her closet. Bella pulled the pillow back over her head.

"Have fun," She mumbled. She felt the bed dip under her. A second later the pillow was pulled from her head.

"Bella is everything ok?"

"mm Its fine, I'm just tired and I still have to call my father, oh the joys of my life."

"Ok," Alice got up and went back over to her bed zipping her bag and hafting it over her shoulder. I'm leaving the boys to go to class in the morning I'll most likely see you tomorrow night if I don't spend the night again.

"Ok have fun," came the mumbled reply from under the pillows. Alice left the room locking the door behind her. Bella rolled over and laid on the bed staring up at the ceiling. She sighed and stood up. She pulled her phone out of her coat pocket and sat back down on her bed. she moved her finger over the screen nervous about how this conversation would go. She grimaced. Finley she took a deep breath and hit her dads number in her phone book. Her leg jiggled as she sat in bed and listened to the ring. Finally after what felt like forever but in reality was only three rings he picked up.

"What."

"Yes nice to talk to you to dad."

"Oh Bella." Charlie sat down in his armchair. Trying to get comfortable as he knew this was going to be a long conversation.

"Why yes unless you have another daughter running around that you've never told me about."

"Oh so funny, now young lady you have some explaining to do about a football player by the name of Cullen."

Bella cringed. "Well it all starts with my roommate really; you see Emmett Cullen is her brother. The first night here I went out to dinner with her, her other brother Edward his girlfriend Rosalie and we were meeting her boyfriend and oldest brother who I didn't realize until I got to the restaurant were actually Emmett Cullen and Jasper Whitlock."

"I'm sure that was a surprise."

"Yeah, you can say that again, you seem earlier I thought they had went crazy when they were questioning me about why I had so much Seahawks merchundice, they thought I was just some crazy fan girl and were worried. I of course showed them that no I wasn't a fan girl just a girl raised by a sports crazy father."

Charlie chuckled gruffly. "I'm not that crazy."

"Ok daddy whatever you say."

"But that does not explain how you ended up at that game wearing Cullen's jersey and the whole stadium calling you the mystery brunette."

"Oh your exaggerating it wasn't the whole stadium."

"Pretty dam close."

"Dad I just…" she trailed off. "I don't know how to explain it. I felt an instant connection to him. It isn't about his money, or his fame, it's about him. He's so much more then he shows the world.

Charlie could hear the love in his daughters voice and he softened. "How long have you been together?"

"Well we've been dating since the day after I got on campus he asked me out the night I went to dinner with them. We've officially been boyfriend and girlfriend for only two days he asked me Friday night."

"Are you being safe," Charlie asked even saying it over the phone made him blush.

"Dad," Bella was mortified. Her face flaming. She remembered when he'd given her the talk at fifteen in reality he'd thrown condoms at her told her to be safe and fled the room. Which was fine because she'd gotten the actual talk from Sue Clearwater two years before that. Hell she was still a virgin not that her dad needed that piece of information though.

"Dad we haven't done anything, I like him I want to get to know him and I think he likes me to I'm not going to rush into anything. "

"Well good, but I still want to meet this boy." Charlie tried to make himself sound stern even though he was still embarrassed.

"Daddy, this all so new please don't ruin it" She pleaded.

"I'm your father."

"Yes so I know my father who likes to intimidate boys with guns." She scowled remembering her when she went to prom with Tyler Crowley he was so freaked out after he picked her up he didn't talk to her all that night and wouldn't even hold her hand. Not that she'd wanted to do anything with Tyler but it was the principle of the matter.

"Bella," there was a warning tone in Charlie's voice and Bella new she'd lost when her father used that voice.

"I'll see what I can do but I'm not promising anything and If you scare him away I'm going to be pisssed. Now I've had a long night I'm going to bed."

"Fine good night baby girl, love you."

"Love you to." And with that she hung up and flopped back on the bed.

This was going to be a disaster she just knew it.

Scene break

On an upper floor of the dorms Rosalie Hale was in tears. Her face flushed red, her hair a mess, tears running down her face. The minuet she'd walked into Edwards room she'd burst into tears and she hadn't stopped in the twenty minutes they'd been back.

"Rose what is it? Why wouldn't you tell me why you're crying?" Edward was bewildered as he watched his girlfriend breakdown further.

"What does she have that I don't?"

"Who, what are you talking about?" Edward was desperate to fix whatever was wrong he hated to see Rose so distressed.

"Bella, your mom loves her since the moment she laid eyes on her and I've been with you for three years and she still doesn't like me."

"Oh Rose." He sat on the bed and pulled her close to him. As much as he loved him mother at that moment a part of him wanted to hate her. "My mom is a very complex woman, she likes you but you and her are so similar that you clash sometimes. Plus when I first brought you around you were this ex high school cheerleader who didn't seem to keep a boyfriend for more than a week." Rose started to protest and Edward stopped her. "I know why, I know it all Rose you had a good reason, I love you I love everything about you, your flaws your demons everything but you have to admit you had an icy exterior one you had for a good reason but it was there and my mom didn't trust you, I'm sorry about that I wish I could change it, but she likes you now even if you do fight sometimes but like I said you're just to similar. So stubborn want your own way," He leaned down and kissed her forehead. "I love you anyway." He chuckled. She wacked his chest but laughed.

"Love you to." She kissed him. "I really do love Bella though she's nice."

"That she is Edward agreed. But not as nice as you." He held her close trying to prove to her she was everything he'd ever need.

She let herself relax into his embrace, She knew that Esme liked her maybe even loved hr but it hurt sometimes to still feel like an outsider especially when Bella was excepted so easily.

Scene break

Alice walked into the boys apartment and flopped down kissing Jasper who was next to her. "Nice game boys."

"Thank you." Jasper drabbed his arm around her as Emmett came into the room.

"Hey Pixie stick. Hey Emmett you may want to call your girlfriend she's freaking out about talking to her dad."

Emmett glanced at the clock." I'll call her in an hour I'm sure she's talking to her dad right now. I'm going to go shower, you to have fun. But not too much." With that he walked away."

"We think Bella's a miracle worker." Jasper said wrapping his arms around her more.

"Really?" Alice arched her eyebrow.

"Yeah I mean she got your mom to like her on the first meeting, that's got to be a record."

"I know, I thought we'd have some issues."

Jasper just shook his head. " Wish she'd teach me some of her tricks."

Alice just giggled and pulled him up and lead him into his room shutting the door behind her. "I'll teach you some of my tricks." She whispered her hot breath against his lips.

"Really," Well I'm game." He picked her up moving her to the bed and hovering over her capturing her lips with his. His hands moving down her stomach pulling her shirt from her body they undressed each other in the darkness.

Scene break

Carlisle looked over at his wife as they drove home. "So you really liked Bella huh."

"Yeah she's seems perfect for Emmett." She smiled at him.

"Now Esme no favoritism," Carlisle cautioned.

"What do you mean?"

He sighed. "I know you, Esme you like Bella more than you do Jasper and Rosalie," he held his hand up stopping her protest. "I know you love them but Esme you'll push them off to the side I've seen it happen before, I've seen it happen with Emmett."

Tears sparkled in her eyes. She knew he was right, "I know I wasn't the best mother to him ok, I know you don't have to remind me. Edward was so smart he was always with you and he needed me to take him to all his extra lessons , Alice was so high energy she was so bubbly I couldn't help gravitate towards her. Emmett I love him I love him so much but he could always take care of himself he never seemed to need us. Sure he was a prankster but I always knew he would be ok." He wasn't picked on like Edward he wasn't going over his budget or cutting class like Alice. He just was there." Esme realized how horrible that made her sound.

"So you're trying to like Bella so Emmett will come closer to you."

"no I really do like Bella she's good for him like I said I think she understands him better than me and I'm his own mother." Esme felt one tear roll down her cheek Carlisle reached over and brushed it away. He knew both him and Esme had failed Emmett in many ways they'd given him to much responsibility as the oldest and sometimes caused him to take the fall for Alice's actions. He regretted it but he didn't want to repeat the cycle with the significant others of his children and he could see it happening already.

"It will be ok Esme," He whispered. And he remembered how Bella interacted with everyone and he wondered if maybe she was truly the piece they'd been missing maybe she was the one that could bring their fractured family back together.

Scene break

Bella had been staring up at the ceiling when she heard her phone ring. Picking it up she glanced down and smiled seeing Emmett's name on the caller ID.

"Hello," She whispered. Sleep seeming to invade slowly.

"Hey babydoll." She giggled a little at his name for her."So how did your conversation with your father go?"

She sighed. "He wants to meet you."

"Ok well practice is crazy so I can't really leave right now why don't you have come up here."

"Yeah maybe, I'll ask him." She tried to stifle a yawn.

"Bella I heard you Yawn. Get some sleep, everything will be ok good night."

"Night." She whispered hanging up." And though she wasn't sure that everything would be ok just hearing it from him made her feel better, though not much she didn't know what she'd do if she lost him.

Emmett looked at the phone as he crawled into bed he thought about Edward and Rose, he thought of Jasper and Alice and at that moment more than anything he wished he was holding Bella in his arms. Holding her close to his heart, he was falling and falling hard and it scared him.

A/N thanks to everyone that reviewed this chapter just flowed from me. The Carlisle part was for KCLZ4475 who wanted a peak into Carlisle's mind. Now this story started off as a chance for me to work on a pairing I'd never tried it was going to be silly and fluffy. I didn't know where it would go but its turned into so much more. Its turned into a story about love, loss, regret, family and the complexity's it takes to belong in one. I know I'm not focusing as much on Bella and Emmett right now but I feel that looking at everyone and their struggles will make this story stronger. It is still mainly about Bella and Emmett but I wanted to show how everyone and every action is connected. So please review and don't forget about the facebook page. I would love to get to at least 300 reviews before the next chapter.
