***SORRY THIS TOOK SO LONG, BETWEEN THE NEW JOB AND A NEW KITTEN,TIME KIND OF GOT AWAY FROM ME. BUT HERE IT IS CHAPTER 6! LET ME KNOW WHAT YOU GUYS THINK!**

Dinner rushed by in a blur. Bella was able to maintain conversation by chiming in at the right moments to keep anyone from getting suspicious. Well, everyone but Jasper. His amber eyes never left Bella's throughout the whole meal, his suspicions keeping Bella on his radar.

"Ok, what's up with you?" Jasper came right up to her as soon as the meal was over and everyone started to leave the restaurant.

"Jasper, I'm not going into it right now ok?" Bella said as she and Jasper walked a couple of paces behind the rest of the group, her eyes resting on Edward.

"Bella.."

"Hey guys!" Alice came running towards them, "Party time!"

"Party time?" Bella asked, a lump building in her throat.

She had been relieved that dinner had ended and that her bed and the comfort of her room were in sight.

"Yea, there's a club a few blocks from here that Edward and I wanted to check out. I figured this would be a good reason to break it in." Alice shrugged.

Bella knew she couldn't say no, there as no denying the look of happiness that spread across Alice's face.

"Alright, lets do it." Bella gave Alice a quick hug and headed towards Edwards car, not taking a second look back at Jasper.

"Doing ok?" Edward asked as Bella climbed into the passenger seat.

"As good as could be expected." Bella smiled.

"It'll be fine," she squeezed her hand lightly before starting the car.

Sure it will.

The scene outside of Taboo was calm despite the loud music and bright lights that greeted them as soon as the small group of four made their way inside. Large groups of people were crowded around the dance floor, causing the group to separate easily.

"Want to dance?" Edward came up beside Bella, wrapping his arm around her waist.

"Do I have a choice?" She grinned.

"Not really," he smiled and led her out to the dance floor by her hand.

Thank god its dark in here. Bella thought as a warm feeling rushed over her face.

Edwards hands gripped her waist on both sides, pulling her close to him. A tingling sensation flew through Bella as their bodies touched, swaying in sync to the loud music blaring from the speaker. The song went unrecognized by both of them, not that it mattered.

The scent of Edwards cologne filled her nostrils, sending her head reeling with desire. Having his body pressed up against hers wasn't helping either. Every time him body met hers it sparked memories of earlier on that day; the touch of his hands on her bare skin, his soft lips pressing to hers.

Her arms wrapped around his neck as his hand rested on her thigh, guiding her hips to move with his. She fought every urge to take him and kiss him right there on the dance floor, an urge that was intensified every time she caught the passionate gaze is his eyes.

A groan escaped Edward's lips as she left him briefly, taking only a second or two before her back pressed against his chest. His amber eyes closed as Bella reached up behind her, running a hand through his disheveled hair. His lips found their way to the nap of her neck, placing light kisses on her skin.

Bella gasped as the kisses made their way up her neckline, resting just at the bottom of her earlobe.

He was driving her crazy.

His lips pressed against her forehead before leaving her skin all together, the close contact confirming a feeling deep inside Bella. There was no denying Edward Cullen.

"Bella," Edward breathed as the song ended.

"Bella!"

Both separated quickly as they turned to see Alice bounding up to them, Jasper in tow.

"Shot time!" Jasper smiled and handed the two shot glasses he had been carrying in his hands over to Bella and Edward.

"Cheers," Alice smiled and everyone downed the shots quickly.

Bella winced as the taste of vodka hit her taste buds, followed by a hint of citrus. "What was that?"

"Grape vodka," Alice shrugged. "I've always wanted to try it."

"Pretty good," Bella nodded. "I say we do another one."

"I like your style!" Alice cheered and started pulling Bella across the dance floor to the bar, Jasper following right behind them.

Edward frowned as he watched Bella run off with Alice, knowing her spiratic behavior was more of a result of nerves rather than joy. He slowly made his way to the bar, staying at the opposite end of where his friends were standing.

He grunted as a force pushed him into the bar, his hands quickly grasping the counter to stabilize himself. He turned to see a petite blonde woman standing behind him, a dark spot showing on her pink shirt.

"Oh god, I'm sorry." Her blue eyes grew wide, "I'm not used to these damn shoes."

"It's perfectly fine," he gave her a friendly smile. "I don't know how you girls manage to walk in those things."

"I haven't figured that out myself," she chuckled. "I'm Jessica."

"Edward," he shook her well manicured hand.

"I've never seen you here before, you new in town?"

Oh here she goes.

"Just moved here actually," Edward leaned back against the counter, glancing in Bella's direction.

"I moved here recently myself," Jessica tossed her long blonde hair as she slid into the seat next to him. "Transferred here from South Carolina."

"Edward nodded as Jessica went into the story of her move, only catching his attention when she found toss her hair into his line of sight.

Is there really a need to do that? Your shirt is cut down to god knows where, you're drawing enough attention to yourself already. Edward mused.

His thoughts broke as he eyed Bella's pale frame, watching it as it began to teeter back and forth.

The three friends were laughing loudly, leaning on each other to stay upright,

Uhoh. Edward thought as he eyed Bella, her face growing paler than it usually was.

"Excuse me." Edward said, and starting moving through the crowd before Jessica had a chance to get another word in.

"Edward!" Bella stumbled towards him, tripping over her own feet as she moved.

"Whoa, easy there." Edward scrambled to catch her before she headed towards the floor.

"I like you." She slurred as she stabilized herself.

"God Bella, how much have you had?" Edward frowned at the smell of liquor omitting from her body.

"Enough," Jasper said as he came up to them with Alice leaning against him.

"I can see that. Are you guys ok?"

"I didn't drink as much as they did, they went shot to shot with each other for while there."

"Do you guys want a ride? I think it's time for Bella to get home."

"If you don't mind, I didn't have a lot but I don't want to chance it."

"No problem, lets get out of here." Edward adjusted Bella as she leaned against him and led the group out to his car.

Alice and Bella were quiet once they reached Edward's car, protesting only slightly as the boys helped them into the passenger seat.

An awkward silence washed over the two men once everyone was inside the car, Jasper sitting next to Edward in the passenger seat.

Do I ask? Jasper thought.

The only things he could think to talk about, were the things he knew nothing about.

There might not even be a thing.

He just couldn't get the look on Bella's face out of his mind, the look of pure happiness when she looked at Edward. Something had happened between them, that much he was sure of. He felt like an idiot for worrying the way that he was, he had nothing to worry about with Edward. He was smart and kind, good student as well as a good son.

Jasper sighed and leaned back against the headrest and closed his eyes, giving up on starting any sort of a conversation with Edward.

Prying isn't something he wanted to get into that night, especially when it would keep an sort of confrontation from ruining the evening.

Besides, Bella would tell him if something was wrong. Right?

Jaspers eyes blinked open as he felt Edwards car come to a slow, lengthy stop.

Home sweet home.

"Thanks Edward," Jasper yawned.

"It's no problem, especially for my family and my future brother in law."

Jasper smiled and went around towards the back of the car, slowly coxing Alice out of the backseat. His eyes drifted to Edward, who gently lifted Bella out of the car.

It hit him suddenly as he watched Edward pull her close, placing a kiss on her forehead as they made their way inside the Cullen's house.

Holy shit.

The sudden realization of what was going on between Edward and Bella startled him, Jasper finding it hard to stabilize himself as he helped Alice towards the house.

"Jasper," Alice whispered. "I need to lay down."

"I know beautiful, we're almost there." Jasper went as quick as he could, finding the entranceway empty.

"Jasper," Carlisle came down the stairs with Edward right behind him. "Is Alice ok?"

"Groggy but fine," Alice muttered as she rested her head on Jaspers shoulder. 'Where's Bella?"

"Sick," Edward frowned. "She's upstairs with Esme."

"I'm going to call her brother, I know I have his number somewhere." Carlisle patted Edward on the shoulder and headed through the kitchen to his office.

"I'm going to go check on her and go to bed," Alice gave Jasper a peck, smiling as he wrapped his arms around her and followed her up the stairs.

"Edward, are you alright?" Esme looked tired as she passed the young couple on her way down the stairs.

"I'm fine, how's Bella?"

"Well she's out of the bathroom," Esme sighed and ran a hand through her long honey colored hair. "I put her in your room so Jasper and Alice can have some privacy."

"Emmett's been notified, he said he'd pick her up in the morning if we needed him to." Carlisle said as he shut his cell phone, joining the two members of his family in the hallway.

"I believe our work is done then," Esme smiled as Carlisle placed a kiss on her forehead. "You need anything before we head up?"

Edward shook his head, "I'll just set up on the couch."

"Goodnight son," Carlisle smiled and followed Esme up the stairs, leaving Edward alone in the dimly lit hallway.

A heavy sigh escaped Edward's lips as he collapsed on the plush, white cushion of the couch in the living room.

He wanted to be with her, especially with her feeling the way that she was. He just wanted to hold her in his arms, to feel her skin against his, to smell the scent of her lavender shampoo.

He couldn't gage how Carlisle would react if he found his son with his partners sister, he wondered if would hurt whether than help anything.

God, what am I doing?

"Edward?

He jolted upward as a faint, yet familiar voice landed on his ears.

Bella stood at the bottom of the stairwell, her black dress replaced by a white t-shirt and grey sweatpants.

"Bella," he stood up quickly. "How are you feeling?"

"Well the room stopped spinning." Bella shrugged, her feet shuffling against the hardwood floor as she made her way to the living room. "And I think I've probably thrown up everything I've eaten since last Tuesday."

Edward chuckled and scooted over on the couch as she sat down next to him, "I was worried."

"Why didn't you come up?" Bella spread out across the remainder of the couch, wrapping her arms around his waist as her head rested on his chest.

"Curiousity got the best of me I guess, I didn't know how Carlisle would react to me laying in bed with you."

"I think it would be fine," Bella yawned. "Your father seems to think pretty highly of my brother."

"I know, it was just a thought." Edward wrapped his arms around her, his head resting on top of hers.

"Edward?"

"Hmm?"

"What's going on with us?"

"I don't know," Edward yawned. "But I like it."

Bella snuggled against Edward, he always smells so good.

One last yawn escaped her lips before her eyelids fluttered shut, allowing her body to fulfill its demand for sleep.

Edward never left Bella's mind as bits and pieces of various dreams flowed through er mind. That was until the early morning sun found its way through the blinds and into the living room, resting on Bella's eyelids.

"Go away," she muttered and buried her face in the fabric of Edward's shirt.

Edward shifted slightly, his body sliding father down the pillow he had been resting against while his arms tightened around her waist.

She wondered how early or late it was as her left eye opened slightly, taking in the bright sunlight that filled the seemingly empty house.

It was amazing how surreal the morning could be just by having Edward here.

A smile crept across Bella's face as she ran her finger tips and down the contours of his chest.

"That tickles," Edward chuckled lightly.

"Sorry," Bella looked up to meet his amber eyes.

He looked tired but the previous days events, dark circles sat under his brilliantly colored eyes. A grin crept across his lips, as a hand gently stroked the side of her cheek.

"What?"

"You're beautiful," he whispered.

"No I'm not," Bella groaned.

"Yes you are," he smiled at her. "And I say so, so it goes."

Bella chuckled, "I think your reasoning is slightly flawed."

"I think your wrong."

The smile never left Bella's lips as she lifted herself up and pulled her self closer to his face, her lips landing on his.

"Why does this always happen?" Edward groaned as a loud noise chirped from Bella's purse.

"It's probably just Emmett, I'll tell him to give it a little longer." Bella kissed his lips quickly and fished her cell phone out of her purse.

"Hey Emmett, I lived."

"Bella, it's Rosalie."

"Rosalie? What's wrong?" Bella and Edward sat up on the couch, the tone in Rosalie's voice struck fear in Bella's heart.

"It's Emmett Bella, we had an accident."
