I don't own twilight
Bella and Alice were woken up to pounding on their dorm door. Bella glanced over at the clock on her bedside table. The red luminous numbers read 7:00 AM. She threw the covers back and groggily got out of bed. Throwing the door open and looking blearily at the person in front of her.
"What," her words felt thick.
"Read this," Rose thrust a paper into her hands and walked past her as Alice sat up in her bed.
"What's going on," She looked around the room as Bella pushed the door closed and walked back to her bed. "What are you doing here Rose.
Rose gestured to the paper that was in Bella's hands. "you guess need to read that."
Bella looked down at the paper. The bold headline glared up at her. "Holy Hell," she muttered.
Esme Cullen: Loving mother or Scary secret
"What, What is it." Alice demanded. Looking wild-eyed at her Bella passed over the paper, Alice scanned the paper and felt like she was going to pass out. "How did they get this information this is classified. How the hell did they find out about this?
"I don't know Alice but we'll figure it out." Bella grabbed her phone before she started to dial she turned back to Rose. I'm guessing Edward knows. Rose nodded her head.
"He's over at the apartment."
"Right, should we call or just go over there"
"Lets just go over," Alice got up and went into her closet.
"Has anyone been to the hospital today?"
"No one's been there since you had Alice went yesterday to deliver that magazine." Rose said.
"Ok I'm ready," Alice came out her hair in a tiny bun and in a t-shirt and sweat pants. She had a duffle bag hanging from her shoulder.
"Alice what are you wearing and what's with the bag."
"Bella I just want to get there, this is a bag filled with enough clothes for a week. I don't know what will happen but when the media gets information like this its better to have a central location easier to control things they boys apartment has the best security and enough room for all of us I suggest you get a bag around both of you, Rose do you think you can get a bag around for Edward.
"Yeah I'll meet you two back down here." She walked out the door as Bella started to pull some clothes on and throw others into a bag. Her phone went off and she glanced down at it.
"Hello Dad,"
"Isabella Swan what is the meaning of this?"
"What are you talking about dad?"
"This morning I turn on the sports station and all anyone is talking about is how Emmett Cullen's mother is in a mental hospital and how his mysterious girlfriend has been seen entering the hospital with his younger sister."
"Hold on dad." She lowered her phone. "Alice turn the TV to a sports or Media channel." Grabbing the remote Alice flipped the channels before she found one. The first thing that they saw was a picture of them entering the hospital."
"Crap," Alice threw the remote. "They must have had this story for a few days and were just waiting to ambush, That picture could only have been taken yesterday."
"We'll deal Alice hold on," Bella put the phone back to her ear. "Dad are you still there?"
"Of course I'm still here, where do you think I would have gone? Now what is going on?"
She took a deep breath. "Dad Emmett's mother has some issue's she had to be hospitalized and the Media somehow got a hold of the information, Edward Emmett and Jasper are over at the boys apartment. Me Rose and Alice are at the dorms. Us girls are going to the boys apartment it has the best security and we'll figure out what to do from there."
"Who are Alice and Rose Jasper and Edward?"
Bella sighed she swore her dad never listened. "Alice and Edward are Emmett's younger siblings and Alice is my roommate. Jasper is Jasper Whitlock you know who that is and he's also Emmett's roommate and Alice's boyfriend. Rose is Edward's girlfriend."
"So you're all going to be staying in the apartment together?"
"Yes,"
"Are you sure that's safe?"
"For know until we can get it under control and figure out what happened Alice tells its for the best."
Just then Rose walked back into the room. "All set," she sat two bags down and noticed Bella was on the phone.
"Well are the cops on the leak?"
"I have no idea dad"
"Well I'm coming down there to talk to the chief he's a friend of mine."
"No dad that's not necessary."
"Oh yes it is, I'll be on the next plane out I'll call when I land."
Before she could say anything else he'd hung up the phone. "Well that's just great." She flopped back on her bed and covered her head with a pillow.
"What's wrong now," Rose lifted the pillow from her face. Bella sat up squeezing the pillow to her chest.
"Well first off me and Alice were caught in a picture going into the hospital yesterday one plus they still don't have my name but that won't last long. My father found out called and oh yeah he's on his way to Seattle to talk to the police chief here." Bella rubbed her forehead.
"Well maybe he'll be some help, We have good lawyers and more police on our side isn't bad. We don't know how nasty this could get. Are we ready." Alice looked around the room.
Rose and Bella nodded picking up their bags plus Edwards and decided to take Rose's car as it was less known then Alice's. Not that it helped the moment they walked out the door they were bombarded by flashing camera's and shouted questions.
"Miss Cullen is it true you're mother went nuts?"
Miss. Hale how is Mr. Edward Cullen holding up."
"What is Emmett's mystery girls name." trying to shield their faces the girls rushed to the car. Slamming the door in the face of the paps Rose revved her car and Bella was almost sure she would run over someone if she had to.
"Does this happen often," Bella asked Alice from the passenger seat. She found herself shaking slightly she was used to being unknown to being in the background now she was being thrust into a media storm.
"We've had a few dust ups but this is the biggest." Alice shook her head tiredly. Rose pulled into the parking spot and grabbing the bags they were once again met by flashing light and shouted questions pushing their way they throw it all they made their way to the entrance.
"Ladies," The doorman nodded to them. "Can I speak to you."
"Of course Eli." Alice and the others followed him into a privet room.
Shutting the door Eli turned to them. "Ok Miss Cullen your father called He wasn't sure if you were going to show up here or not but we've been told that if you did show up to let you know you're not to leave the apartment until he gives the ok. All food delivery is to go through security."
"Well Eli we weren't really planning on leaving but it's lovely of my father to call you but not bother to call me or my sisters." Alice huffed. Walking past the doorman, Bella followed her in a daze. Had Alice just called her a sister? That was unexpected. Pushing the penthouse button they slide into the elevator. Alice scowling at the door as it slide shut. "Of course he didn't want to deal with us, no he'd rather hide behind others, So Typical." She snarled. The Elevator came to a stop and the doors slide open. Stalking forward as the others two stepped behind her cautiously She pounded on the door. "Let us in." she shouted through the wood.
"Should we stop her," Bella mouthed to Rose." Rose just shrugged as the door was pulled open and Jasper stood on the other side.
"Come in, what's gotten into her?" He watched as Alice stalked past him and the other two came into the apartment quietly.
"Who pissed off the pixie?" Emmett took a bite out the sandwich he was holding.
"Your father," Bella sat down on the couch snagging the sandwich from her boyfriends hand.
"Hey that's mine."
"Not anymore," She took a bite and sighed.
"So what are we going to do?" Rose sat down in the chair.
"Isn't that what we'd all like to know, Edward said standing next to the window looking over the Seattle skyline and the Camera's below?
