Chapter 3- Girl Talk and Secret Men's Business

Rosalie and I eventually realised it would be pointless to try and stop our energetic little sister from dragging us up to her, self proclaimed new room. We looked at each other, each knowing that she had some evil scheme to get Esme and Carlisle together and could only guess and dread or part
"Shut the door Bella, quickly," I looked at her, resigned to the fate of her evil domination, but alas complied with her request
"So that started well..." I began, sarcasm dripping from my voice
"Shhhh," Alice held her finger up to quiet me down, she had the guest phone in her hand and had obviously dialled someone although I had no idea who she wanted to call,
"Michael, hey, yep I was right, so I need you to transfer 100,000 American into my credit card, and next Tuesday I want you to invest 50,000 on Indigo, and sell those pesky Babcock shares, it's the right time,..., yes I'm sure... I just know alright," Alice looked at us and smiled, Rosalie raised her brow "Oh and Michael, can you send over Rosalie's baby please" With that she hung up.
"Awww Alice!!" I sighed, I knew she was already way to attached to this family, and now that the car was coming there would be no way that Rose would leave until her baby was here.
"Alright Alice you said you wanted to talk, what's up?" she smiled at me before beckoning Rose, she obviously wanted this conversation to be held in private, I relented and grabbed both their hands firmly.
The process of our mind conversations were quite simple really, One of us made a decision to say something, which would then come up as one of Alice's visions of which by touching her I could inadvertently see and by touching Rose passed on to her.
My minds shielding ability also meant that these conversations were private, I often joked that I was a portable soundproof room
EPOV
Jasper and Emmett had culminated in my room after the story to give their own opinions on the girls. They seemed quite at ease with them and Emmett as he so rationally put it had the hots for Rose.
Of course they didn't see the plan to marry us off one by one forming in Alice's head, I didn't know about Carlisle but we were indeed happy bachelors, well really in truly we just weren't ready to be paraded down the aisle.
I listened for their thoughts frantically trying to figure out if they were friend or foe.
"I can't hear them" I whispered,
Jasper looked at me concerned why can't you hear them
"It's Bella"
Emmett snorted Dude I know you have this massive inferiority complex and everything, but not everything is about Bella, and anyway Rosalie is hot, and Alice is making jasper feel like a lovesick puppy, can you not feel the lust coming from him
I stared at Jasper who then sent a wave of embarrassment through the room
I scowled, hormonal Jasper is all I needed.
I turned and gravitated towards my stereo system where the boys proceeded to suggest their favourites, Linkin Park was Emmett's suggestion while jasper went much more low key with some classics from the Jackson Five, I was definitely not in the mood.
Knock, Knock
I whirled around, truly surprised, who the hell knocks in this house I thought, or better yet who knocks without me hearing them thinking about knocking first. I opened the door to find Alice and Bella, holding hands, no wonder I didn't sense anybody.
"Hi Edward, I saw that you wanted some music to play and Bella thought you would like this," Alice squeaked too fast for the general public to understand, Bella gave me an apologetic smile before they turned to return to their room.
I looked at the CD and found that it was a manual compilation disk labelled Bella's music.
"Put it in Edward," Jasper scolded me, I turned around and flicked to number 1, wondering if I would recognise the music, I clicked the player and it began playing the first song.
I closed my eyes to listen to the soft composition, immediately recognising it as a full orchestra piece, I was surprised but caught up in the beauty of the song as it gently escalated into a powerful melodic war in which the string and wind sections of the orchestra seemingly fought a war of wits,
It was a beautiful composition, although I did not recognise the composer, the song finished and I saw Emmett and Jasper leave the room, they unfortunately did not appreciate the classics and as they left I heard fleeting thoughts of the high score that Emmett was trying to achieve in halo 2. I sat down and let my thoughts wonder, the first track was replaced by a second classical, one that I would recognise anywhere, Claire De Lune.
EmPOV
Edward had Classical on the brain again, I rolled my eyes then hand signalled jasper to meet me in the games room for some halo, well really I pointed at him, then at me and motioned a Chinese samurai guy chopping someone's head off, but he seemed to get the idea. We exited the room and left Edward to his music.
We had the game set up on multi player and were currently duelling at a legendary level, I was winning but I knew Jasper liked to come up from behind and blind sight the characters with an all offensive blow.
"Aw Crap Jasper," I threw the controller at him, he ducked and it missed him by inches
"You're such a cheater, why can't you just fight on strength just like everyone else," he smirked and I heard a smothered laugh from behind me, I turned and my face was stricken in horror, Rose was sitting right behind me watching me play
I got defensive "Think you can play better," I asked, not expecting a reply
"Yep," she replied curtly
I shrugged and gave her the controller, Jasper had reset the game and the battle began to play again, She hunted the map for the upgradable weapons and then placed Heal sites at strategic locations, she then set up at a vantage point and began to search the area as a sniper for Jasper, I sighed, there was no way Jasper would allow himself to be snipered, just then she fired
"Gotcha," she yelled
I stared at Jasper unbelievably, what the hell was that I thought, I turned my head back to the screen and was baffled, she was off again, completely altering her strategy to that of a foot soldier,
I was amazed, the stealth and precision she used in the game was a thing that was matched only by her physical beauty, I snapped back to the game. She was one point off winning and had Jasper in her scope, Bang! One swift hit and he was down.
I laughed, Jasper was beaten by his own game. I looked at Rose and held my fist up to her
"You're alright, for a chick" I complimented her
"You not bad yourself," she replied knocking her fist against mine.
"You're pretty good too Jasper, but Emmett is right you need to be more forward if you get attacked like that, It's not as accurate as real life, there's too much emphasis on strength" he smiled
"Good to know,"
She turned around and left the room, leaving us to collect ourselves, I was still gawking, she was amazing and beautiful, and smart, and could kick Jaspers but at video games
"Hit me Jazz, I think I'm in love,"

I had wanted to talk to Edward since I met him in the clearing but it hadn't seemed like the right time. I wanted to explain the situation to him rationally; His impressions from Alice's visions put a new meaning on seeing the world through rose coloured glasses.
I had waited until his brothers had left and Alice was busy ordering a new wardrobe for each of us on Macy's online.
"Edward," I said knocking on the door lightly
I opened the door slightly but paused waiting for him to allow me to enter, he sighed
"Come in," he said quietly
"Did you want your CD back." He said obviously confused by my presence.
I was startled, for someone who could read peoples thoughts he wasn't that intuitive.
"Um, no, actually I was wondering if I could talk to you" he looked at me curiously but nodded
"I just wanted to apologise for Alice, she gets a little bit ahead of herself, I don't know what you saw, but you should know that whatever she sees is very subjective,"
"She saw me marrying you," I baulked, and started laughing, I tried to imagine it, white dress and all but I couldn't
"I'm not the marrying type Edward,"
"So you're not attracted to me then," he grinned
My smile vanished, I stared at him, I quickly raced the back of my mind looking for an out to the personal question, change the subject maybe, no that will never work , okay so what if I was attracted to him, but that didn't mean anything
"Um, Sure but that doesn't mean anything,"
"Uh you are so frustrating," he issued falling back onto the bed
Okay so I was officially confused "And why is that?" I asked him
"Because I can't tell what you're thinking, and you never say exactly what you think"
I sniggered, was me telling him to deal with it too harsh, Probably, I decided to redirect the question,
"So we are going to go to school tomorrow, any pointers?" HE looked at me and then turned to the window as if considering something
"Beware of Newton," I smiled confused, wasn't Newton that physics guy with the three laws of motion, I turned and made my way to the door
"Bella,"
"Yea Edward,"
"I'm sorry I was such a brat before, I was just worried"
I smiled at nodded, acknowledging his apology softly as no to hurt his pride. With that I shut the door, and briskly walked to my room.
