Chapter 2

Jasper and Emmet

Bella's Pov.

Two men stepped up. They must have been Jasper and Emmet, the ones Edward was talking about.

The first man was very tall and burly, with dark hair. The second one was tall too, but not as tall as the first one. He was lean and he had honey blonde hair.

Edward guestured to the really tall one and the honey blonde and said, "This is Emett and that's Jasper. They made the desserts. But their specialtiy is desserts. How could they taste bad?" Edward said tilting his head to the side, with a look of confusion on his face.

God he's cute, I thought.

I rolled my eyes. "I don't care who cooked them," I said. "But I payed a lot of money for these lousy desserts and I want them to taste good!" I grabbed Alice's arm and pulled her closer to me. "It's her birthday! She doesn't want to remember a birthday filled with distasteful desserts!"

Then the man named Jasper spoke up. "Happy birthday," he said quietly, blushing slighty. Edward shot Jasper a look. He quited quickly.

Edward pressed his fingers to his temples. "How about this?" he asked.

"We'll refund the desserts?" he asked hopefully.

I looked at Alice and Rosalie. They both noded. "That's fine," I said turning to Edward.

"Just talk to the lady at the front desk. She'll refund them for you," he said.

"Alright. Goodbye," I said. I turned and started heading for the door. Alice and Rosalie quickly followed behind.

We explained the situation to the women at the front desk. She refunded our bill from the desserts. We then headed outside to catch a cab.

"I'm so sorry Alice. This was supossed to be a great birthday. All we did was fight with the cooks and eat gross food."

Alice smiled and pulled Rosalie and I in for a hug. "I had a wonderful birthday. I got wonderful presents from you guys earlier and had a great time at the restraunt, despite the food. Thank you girls!" she said pulling us tighter as the cold wind blew wildly.

Rosalie smiled. "Your welcome. Thank Bella though. She payed the bill."

"Thank you Bells!" she gushed pulling out of our embrace. I smiled.

"I'm just glad you had a great birthday," I said.

She smiled. "I did. And a cute guy even wished me a happy birthday! Did you see that cute guy in the kitchen? What was his name? Jasper I think?" she asked.

"I liked the tall one!" joked Rosalie.

"That guy was like a building!" I laughed. Rosalie and Alice laughed with me.

"I don't care, he was cute," smiled Rosalie.

Finally, a cab pulled up to the curb. We all piled into the warm car, our cheeks flushed and pink from the cold.

The cab reached our apartment and we climbed out of the cab, into the cold again. Rosalie quickly paid the cab driver and then we walked into the apartment.

We walked up the stairs, to our room. I grabbed the keys out of my purse, my fingers still numb. I unlocked the door and we all trudged in. We threw our coats and purses on the couches and chairs.

"I'll turn the heat on," Alice said.

"Okay," I answered. I walked to the bathroom and turned the faucet on. I was going to take a steamy hot bath. That sounded great after the long, cold day I had.

As I took my clothes off, I remembered the cute cook at the restraunt. I wondered if he could cook better than Jasper and Emmet.

I sighed as I climbed into the steamy, hot water.

Edward's Pov.

I sighed as the three girls left the kitchen. The brown haired girl was the one who really interested me. I looked at Jasper and Emmet.

"Guys what's up?" I asked. "You guys never mess up the recipies."

Jasper shrugged. "I remember doing everything right," he said.

I looked to Emmet. "Well…." he said.

I raised my eyebrows. "Well what?" I asked.

"There was no more sugar so I used….." he said began, shuffling his feet.

"What! What did you use?" I asked.

"Salt," he said.

"Salt!" I said outraged. "Salt and no sugar?! You could have just told me! We could have explained it easily to the ladys!" I was pretty angry.

"Yea but if I hadn't used salt, we would have never met those three girls. And let me tell you, that blonde one was hot!" he said.

Jasper smiled. "I liked the one with the spiky black hair."

"So! It's not about how cute they are! It's about the food!" I said. Even if the brown haired one was beautiful I thought. "We can't be losing money!"

Jasper and Emmet looked down to their feet.

I sighed. "Get back to work. And Emmet, make sure you order more sugar," I said strictly. They both noded and walked back to their stations.
