Chapter 5: Midnight Visits
RosePOV
I snuck out of the guest room that Alice had provided me for pretty much the whole weekend Jasper and I were staying there. I figured that Jasper would be visiting Alice sometime this weekend. I could tell already that they were hitting it off and I knew that Jasper had a huge crush on her. They seemed perfect together. I knew in the long run they most likely would end up together. I was happy for my brother, but I wanted that for myself. I wanted Bella. She seemed perfect for me. I just had to prove that to her.
I left the room and snuck down the hallway. Alice had told Jasper and I that Emmett, Edward, and her rooms were all on the second floor and that all the guest rooms were on the third floor. I knew that Bella stayed there most of the time, but I wasn't sure if they considered her room a guest room or not. She had run off before I could find out where her room was, so I wasn't entirely sure how long it would take me to find it. The Cullen house was HUGE. I knew that the right wing of the house was just for the kids though, so I knew Bella's room couldn't be on the other side of the house. I also knew which room was Jasper's, so that ruled out mine and his rooms. There were four other guest rooms that could be hers.
I opened the door that was the closest to mine, where I found an exercise room that could only have been Alice's. There was a huge expensive stereo system against the wall, which would be awesome even downstairs for a party. All the exercise equipment was pushed up against the wall, with a few yoga mats near the biggest dance floor I had ever seen in someone's house. I knew that the boys in the house would probably never be seen in this room.
I closed the door softly and made my way to the next room. I opened the door just slightly to look in, and knew immediately that it was not the beautiful angel I had met tonight's room. It had a giant entertainment center with a huge TV. There were several game systems, including a Wii, Playstation 3 and XBOX 360. There were also two very comfortable looking reclining chairs, as well as a few gaming chairs. I saw some guitars from Guitar Hero and the entire Rock Band set of instruments. There were a ton of DVD's on a bookshelf, taking up about half of the giant shelf. The other half was games for their never ending game systems. In the corner of the room I saw a basketball goal that most people wouldn't think to have inside of their house, let alone on the third floor of their house. I had known at once that this must be the boy's play room, just like the other room had belonged to Alice.
I had shut the door behind me to go look in the next room when I heard someone coming up the stairs at the end of the hall. I knew that if I didn't go either into the guy's playroom or this last guest room, I would get caught by whoever was coming up the stairs. There would be no way I could make it back to my room in time without the mystery person hearing me. I decided to go back into the guy's room. I scurried back to the door, opened it as quietly as possible, and hid behind the recliner closest to the wall, hoping the mystery person wouldn't come into the room I had decided to hide in….
EmPOV
I decided I might go check on Bella, just to make sure she was really ok. She would be mad at me later if I actually entered the room, so I would just make sure she was asleep and then go take out some frustrations on some Halo. Or maybe visit this beautiful thing that Alice had introduced into my life. No. Remember, you are going upstairs to check on Bella. That's all.
I got up the stairs and put my ear to my best friend's door. First it was quiet, but I could her very soft sobs in the background. I was very tempted to open the door and just hold her to stop her crying, to tell her everything was alright, but she would be pissed if I did that. I didn't even know why she was crying. I knew she liked a boy, but is that why she was crying? I would kick that guy's ass if I found out if he was causing her this pain. If I found out who it was of course. I could only hope that she wasn't crying over some dumb guy.
I really needed to take some frustrations out. I would have gone wild if I had a girlfriend, or if I knew Rosalie more… hehehe. I decided to beat some Halo ass. I would have played Rock Band if I had someone else to play with, or if I wouldn't have been too afraid I'd break the drums. I headed down to the room that had been set up for Edward and I. Total guy's room. I opened the door and then shut it before I turned the light on. No reason to wake the others or to alert Bella I was upstairs. She always knew that it was me that would come upstairs and play in the middle of the night if I was frustrated. I knew she was still awake, so if the light when on, she would know it was me. Plus, I didn't want to be rude to Jasper and Rosalie. I don't think that Jasper would mind. In fact, I think that he would love to join in on some serious video game playing, but it was like 2am, so I didn't think he would be awake.
I went to sit in my favorite recliner. Everyone who knew me knew that I liked to sit near the window to be able to look out at the stars in the middle of the night, or during those hot summer days be able to have the breeze near me. As I got to my chair, I noticed a beautiful halo of hair near the left arm of my chair. I wondered for a second what she was doing in our play room. Then I noticed that I was alone, locked in a room with the most beautiful girl I had ever met.
"Hey beautiful." I said, trying to be my usual seductive self.
"Hey. Sorry, didn't think you'd be awake this late." She said, seeming slightly frightened that I had found her in my lair.
"Its ok, care to sit and talk, or would you like to play some Halo?" I said. I knew that I probably wouldn't have a chance to get in her pants if I played Halo, but you never know what a girl likes unless you ask.
"Actually, I think I should get back to bed. I'm pretty beat." she yawned for emphasis.
"Ok sexy, but if you want a little company, you know where to find me." I grinned my most handsome grin, hoping to change her mind, but it didn't.
"Ok hun, sweet dreams." she said, showing a smile that could melt butter.
"Ditto" I said, hoping not to sound too stupid. As she shut the door behind her, I turned back towards the TV, letting loose on some Halo ass.
RosePOV
I knew that Emmett was hitting on me, but I wasn't interested. I was totally infatuated with Bella. Besides, he wasn't even close to my type. He didn't have the right parts for me. I should let him know that. Maybe then he would stop chasing me.
Just then I had a perfect idea….. trick him into thinking I like him so I can get closer to Bella…. It would be perfect. Then I could have my angel to myself, and I can let Emmett indulge his fantasy of being with me, though he would have no chance of touching me. This was going to be awesome.
(A/N) Hey guys, sorry it took so long to get this chapter up. I know it still isn't the longest, but I'm working on it. I started back to my college classes, and we have to write a lot of papers already, so please be patient if it takes awhile. I also am going without internet most of the time at home, so its kinda hard. I'll update ASAP. REVIEW!!!!
