A/N: so first off I want to thank everyone for there loving reviews...they make me so happy. I also want to assure everybody that as of now I have no intention of simply ending the story...i still think it needs more :) REMEMBER TO REVIEW!!!!!!!!

I cuddled into his chest, my mind racing. He felt the same way I did, could life get any better?

"So..where does this leave us?" I asked

"I dunno" he answered honestly "Together?"

"Well definitely not apart" I said with a giggle

"Definitely not" he said, kissing the top of my head "You know, I wish I had told you how I felt earlier"

"How long have you felt this way?" I asked blushing

"Honestly? I think I just figured it out, but I've liked you since you moved here." He said

I blushed even more "Seriously?"

"Mhm" he said

"Well, I guess it's ok for me to tell you that I've liked you since I moved here to." I said, the blush becoming semi permanent

"Now I really wish I'd told you sooner." he said with a chuckle

We lay there for the longest time, chatting about random things, cuddling and just enjoying the silence.

"What time is it?" I asked, after a while

He reached over me and turned the clock on his side table so that it was facing us. It read 5:20p. Instantly we both froze. We both spoke at the same time

"ALICE!" I said horrified

"EMMETT!" he whispered

They'd be here in less then ten minutes. That didn't leave much time, and certainly not enough time for Edward to get me home.

"We're going to have to tell them sooner or later" he said

"Oh I don't care if they know we're together, but they don't need to know about this" I said motioning toward the pile of clothes on the floor

"Good point" he said.

We both got up and got dressed at top speed, a shower would have been best but there was just no time. Once I had dressed, I made my way down the hall to Alice's huge bathroom. Amazingly enough I didn't look half bad. My hair was certainly a bit disheveled but otherwise. I ran a brush threw it and threw it up into a messy bun. Problem solved. I was still looking in the mirror when Edward came in.

He, of course, looked as godlike as ever. He had a silly grin plastered on his face, and I noticed that so did I

"We look so guilty" I said

"How so?" he asked, now standing behind me with his arms wrapped around my waist.

"We both have smartass grins on our faces like we're three and just did something we weren't supposed to." I said with a laugh

"You're right" he said, his face suddenly serious with only to faintest pull at the sides of his mouth, "You need to look more serious"

"Me!" I said outraged "It's your fault i'm smiling like a fool."

"Would it help if I kissed away the smile?" he asked

"Probably not" I said "But I'm not opposed to trying"

I tilted my head back and he kissed me sweetly. When he pulled away I was still smiling, but I think I looked less guilty.

"Better?" I asked

"Hardly" he said with a smile

We made our way down into the living room just as Alice and Emmett came through the door. Edward walked lazily over to the couch and ploped down. Emmett joined him and they started chatting and watching some sports program, while Emmett practically re-lived his football practice for Edward. Alice, however, stood in the entryway, staring between Edward and me, with a confused and suspicious look on her face.

"How was the appointment?" I asked her, trying to snap her out of her daze

"Good, your gonna die when you see my dress." She said, still staring "Lets go upstaris and you can give me low down on the calculus test."

Very subtle. She was in no way, shape or form the slightest interested in the calculus test. She wanted to know why Edward had brought me here instead of home, what we had been doing for the last two hours, and probably a million other things

"Sure" I said

We made our way upstairs and as we did I whipped out my phone and quickly texted Edward

I'm gonna have to tell her about us. Is that ok with you, no DETAILS though.

B,

Thats fine, Emmett will probably ask too, once he shuts up about practice :)

E.

I felt a bit nervous about telling Alice. It wasn' that I didn't want people to know, but this was her brother, would it make things weird? I seriously hoped not.

Once in her room she shut the door and we both sat down on her bed. She looked at me for a minute, and when I didn't say anything, she started asking questions.

"So..." she started "I thought Edward was driving you home?"

"Technically he did" I said with a laugh "Just not my home."

She laughed "You know what I meant Bella"

"He wanted to talk to me." I said

"About....?" she asked

"Umm...Okay Alice please don't freak out." I said in a rush "Edward and I are...together."

She looked at me like I had three heads "Why would I freak out?"

"He's your brother...I just...I dunno" I said "I wasn't sure what you'd think"

"I THINK ITS AWSOME!" she all but yelled

"Seriously?" I asked "No weirdness?"

"Of course not Bella, I've seen the way he looks at you." she said "And the way you look at him for that matter. You play it all cool Bells but i know you all to well."

I laughed, she was right I was an easy book to read "I'm so glad this is cool."

"Of course it is" she said, almost bouncing with joy "You two are perfect for each other"

I blushed, but she did have a good point.

"So, what did he say?" she asked

"Well, he was really nervous" I said, and she smiled unsurprised "He looked at me and he said 'I.....I think I love you Bella.'"

"OMG HE DID NOT!" she yelled

"Alice shhhh." I said

"What did you say?" she asked, now full out bouncing up and down

"I said that I think I love him too." I told her honestly "And I really think I do, Alice, and I'm beyond terrified."

"Aww this is beyond perfect, and so cute. Being afraid is good, how do you think I felt when Jasper told me he loves me? I was so freaked out, but I knew I loved him too." she said "This is perfect Bella, now we're all evened up. You have Edward, Rose has Emmett, and I have Jasper. It's perfect."

"Why are you so happy about all this?" I asked

"Becuase, I've been getting sick of watching you two dance around each other" she said with a smile "I've been waiting and waiting and waiting and now its finally happened."

"You know you really are to nosy for your own good right?" I said, rolling my eyes at her

"Oh I know." she said "But life is more fun that way."

* * * * * * Meanwhile Downstairs * * * * * * * * * *

Bella and Alice made their way upstairs, leaving me with Emmett. I felt bad for Bella, better Emmett then Alice. She was such a nosy little pixie, at least for the most part Emmett was chil about things. I sat in silence, only half watching the game, while Emmett recounted the entire football practice.

Every manouver, every tackle, the coaches new strategies. I was interested, but my mind was wandering to a very non football related place.

"Sooo..." Emmett started, looking me straight in the face

"What?" I asked

"I thought you were supposed to drive Bella HOME, bro" he said raising his eyebrows

"I was." I said

"And yet somehow she ends up here." he said with a chuckle

"We got to talking...and we ended up here." I said, again not giving anything away

"What'd you talk about?" he asked, and I figured I might as well just spill it and save time.

"Well, I told her some stuff, and she told me some stuff." I said, and he opened his mouth to say something, but I interupted him "And we're kinda, together."

To my surprise he leaned forward and puncjed my shoulder "Nice Bro."

"Bout time to" he added, settling back into the couch

"And what's that supposed to mean?" I asked

"Nothing..." he said "But it was beyond obvious that you liked her man, it just took you long enough to finally do something about it."

Nothing was safe from the people I lived with. I'm sure that if Emmett knew, Alice certainly had. On top of that I'm going to hazzard a guess and say that so did Esme. All of them were WAY to observant. It was downright annoying.
