Chapter 6 Light bulb

(EPOV)

Before I went home I drove around giving Emmett time to fall asleep. When I finally got home I sat in my car thinking

I had not figured out what I was going to tell Emmett, I only knew that I was not going to kill him after all if he had not made me sound like a player Bella never would have contacted me. When I had asked her why she had chosen me she said that she wanted a 'player' not in so many words after all she was a lady.

"I don't want someone who's going to be mooning all over me because we kissed. Don't get me wrong I think that kisses are a very intimate action, but I'm also very logical."

I also planned on taking my profile off of findyourmatch. Com, Bella planned the same.

"I'm going to delete my account you don't have to do the same it's up to you. While I don't condone cheating you're more than welcome to go out with others as long as they know about us and our deal. Just be careful last thing I need are my friends coming to me to tell me my 'boyfriend' is cheating on me."

I had planned on correcting her, let her know that I was not a player, but if she knew the truth then she might go look elsewhere and she might not find a gentleman next time around. So I just kept that part to myself. She would just have to see though my actions that I was not a player.

I let myself in to my house hoping against hope that Emmett had gone to sleep already, give me a little more time to figure out what to tell him. Of course he was not "Hey bro where have you been all day?"

"I was on a date" I decided to stick as close to the truth it would be easier that way.

"What our Eddie on a date"

"Yes a date and I'm so happy that I won't even react to the fact that you called me Eddie"

"With who?"

"Bella"

"Bella?"

"Yeah you can go home and tell mom I got myself a girlfriend"

"Edward, there's no way just yesterday we were arguing about the fact that you had no social life and now you tell me that you have a girlfriend I don't believe you."

At that moment my cell phone beeped it was Bella:

E. Hey! Just letting u know that I made it home OK. Good News! Mom N Dad said they want 2 adopt Seth N the girls 3B.

"See Em I'm not texting myself." I said showing him the text message.

"I don't know you still have not convinced me it's probably a nurse you paid from the hospital. I want to meet her before I go back to Forks"

"Sure Bro let me see what I can do to accommodate you." I said sarcastically "I'll start working on setting that up for you"

I went upstairs to my room and sent Bella a text:

B. Hey glad u made it home safe. We have a problem Em. Wants to meet my GF. :/ I'm sorry I know it's earlier than we expected….E

As I got ready for bed I thought out a plan. Just as I was about to jump in bed I got a text message from Bella

E I don't go in to work till late how bout u invite ur bro 2 lunch and I can come "surprise" u. Just let me know what time u r going to lunch and where u'll be. B

B ur a super smart cookie ok I'll invite him for lunch it will be around 1130 and I'll prob be in bldg II. Have a good nite E

The next mooring before I left for work I woke Emmett up and said "Bro. meet me for lunch I want us to hang out a bit before u go back home."

He mumbled an ok and went back to sleep.

The morning was very stressful and I found myself looking forward to my lunch time when I would be able to see Bella again.

At around 11:25 Em showed up and I told the nurse on duty that I was going to have lunch with my brother and that if anyone was looking for me to page me or direct them to the cafeteria.

At around 11:40 my phone rang I was the duty nurse she said "Doctor Cullen there's a young lady here who won't take a clue she says that she's your girlfriend and I know that you don't date so I told her to take a hike but she just won't leave do you want me to call security?"

"No I want you to direct her to the cafeteria like I asked you."

"Oh! Right away Dr Cullen."

I must have been smiling big because Emmett said "What's up?"

"Well I just got a surprise and I am happy"

"What is it?" he asked as Bella stepped though the doors.

I stood with a smile on my face and said, "Bella"

"Bella?" he said with a frown as we walked toward each other.

When I got to her I kissed her on the cheek wanting to not scare her away and grabbed her hand and brought her over to where Emmett was. "Em this is Bella. Irish this is my oversized brother Emmett"

"It's a pleasure" she said then turned to me "Hey I'm sorry if I'm interrupting it's just that you texted that it had been a long hard morning and I wanted to surprise you"

(did I mention that we had been texting all day?)

"Of course not we're just having lunch your welcome to stay this way I can warn you about my brother and his brooding tendencies." Emmett said.

Bella went to get some food I went to the cashier when she was not looking and told her to put whatever she was getting on my tab. When Bella made back to the table she set her tray down with more force necessary and scowled at me, I just chuckled and said "Eat your food love"

For the rest of the lunch time she had Emmett tell her stories about me as a kid. I was grateful for my brother because although he I a buffoon most of the time he did not talk about Tanya.

Right before they were about to leave I got paged because of an emergency. With Em's promise to walk Bella out I left to go deal with the emergency.

When I got to the hospital I was super nervous I don't like hospitals on the principle that I was in them a lot growing up. I'm very clumsy. I went to the front desk of building II and asked the front nurse if she could tell me where I could find Dr Cullen. She told me with an attitude that he was not available for any one. So I told her very snobbishly that I was his girlfriend. She Informed me that he did not have a girlfriend and to trust her because she would know. I said "well call him if he says aye then you let me though if nay you can personally throw me out."

She looked at me like I had grown a third head so I said "just call the man"

The minute I walked in to the Cafeteria Edward stood up with a smile on his face I felt my heart skip a beat. Funny must because I'm nervous about his brother-I thought to myself.

When I went to pay for my food the cashier told me that it had been taken care of. When Edward told me to eat the food he used a term of endearment and my heart skipped again. Explain that one away Bella. The rest of the lunch I talked to Emmett about Edward he had me in stitches over some of the mischief Emmett had gotten Edward into like when they were 7 and 6 and Emmett decided that Alice, their sister, needed a haircut and he convinced Edward that he had a future as a Barber so he sat Alice in a chair and had Edward give her a haircut. Their mom was not happy.

As I was getting ready to leave Edward offered to walk me out, his phone rang and he asked Emmett to walk me to my car. Emmett agreed and soon we were walking to the front. I snorted as we walked by the front nurse's station Emmett said "What"

"Nothing I just think your brother is a very popular man here"

He snorted back at me. When we got to my Truck Emmett cracked a smile and said "Nice! Hey Bella I want to thank you"

"You're very welcome, but for what"

"My brother has smiled more today than he has in the last 9 years so thanks and drive safe." He closed the door and walked away.
