A/N: I hope everyone enjoys this chapter. I know, we all hate Jacob in this story, and Charlie is simply misguided. Not everything is what it seems.

I hope this chapter answers a lot of the questions you guys have had about Alice and her 'issues'. I'm not sure if you will all hate me or love me when you get to the end. Just so you all know, Edward and Bella won't get busted until he gets back from L.A. so there's a few chapters and a lot of drama in between then. If you all liked the last cliffie, you'd hate me this time!

Thanks for all the awesome reviews! I love each and every one of you! I promise there will be more Jasper, Alice, Rosalie and Emmett in the upcoming chapters.

I don't own twilight, I do own a horrible photo of me and my husband at Hoover Dam.

When Charlie and I got home that night, to say I was flying high was probably an understatement. Sure, Alice had basically told the entire table that she had issues with her brothers dating any of her friends, but Esme was trying to get Edward and I to go on a date. At least we had one ally when the shit hit the fan eventually, which I knew it would. I knew I had at least one month until Edward was back in Seattle to try and find a way to make everything okay. I didn't want to give either of them up, and with the way I was feeling lately, I wasn't certain that Alice would win in this battle.

It was only about half an hour after we got home that I noticed some headlights in the driveway and got excited thinking that Edward had come over early. Charlie had already gone to bed, so now was actually a perfect time for him to pick me up. I had been thinking about his offer of a 'drive' ever since he mentioned it, and I was beyond excited, probably because I had never had sex in a car before. I had already gotten to the door to step outside to join him, when I noticed a figure walking up the driveway that was clearly not Edward. I reached for my phone to call him, but he would just freak out and I prayed I would be able to get Jacob to leave before he arrived.

"Merry Christmas Bella," said Jacob with a gentle laugh as he walked towards me, his arms open as though he was awaiting a hug.

"What are you doing here?" I asked irately as I stepped out onto the porch, not wanting him anywhere near the house.

"I talked to Charlie yesterday and he said you'd be free to talk tonight. I just want to talk to you Bells," he said with an air of confidence about him. "I got you a gift."

"Why don't you give it to your new girlfriend Jacob," I replied snidely as I moved forward along the porch, effectively making him take a step back from me. "I don't give a shit about anything you have to say, and I don't want to hear any possible apologies." Jacob was undeterred by my words and even offered up a smile as I spoke. It just made me all the more furious as I flipped open my phone to call Edward as Jacob grabbed it from my hand and walked into the house, leaving the phone on the counter on the other side of the room.

"Sit down Bella, I just want to talk. She's not my girlfriend… she was just a …. release."

"A release? How romantic," I scoffed out loud. "Why do you want to talk to me Jacob?" I practically shrieked at him. I glared at my phone on the other side of the room, desperate to get to it.

"I want you back. I know I screwed up big time, but you were the best thing that ever happened to me. I need you back." I honestly felt like I was going to vomit on his shoes, but I held back my anger.

"I'm with someone else now." I smiled as I said this, my confidence returning as I thought of me and Edward together. I thought of talking to him about my previous relationship with Jacob, and how relieved I was when I determined that I was never in love with him. Jacob needed to know this.

"When the hell did you have time to find someone else?" he snapped at me angrily as he walked around the kitchen, his hands running down his arms, like he always did when he was nervous.

"It doesn't matter Jake. What does matter is that in my time away from you I realized something very important. I don't love you and I never loved you. I was only with you because everyone wanted us to be together, and we felt safe. I don't want safe anymore." I was instantly proud of the words coming from my mouth and I knew Edward would be proud of me too.

"What kind of slut just goes and finds someone after two weeks. You were probably fucking him before we broke up," he yelled at me. If it wasn't for the fact that Charlie was in his usual turkey coma, he would have probably been down in the kitchen wondering what was going on.

"I never once cheated you on Jacob Black. You can't say the same for me though. I know of one, but I am certain there were more, so stop being a hypocritical bastard. You cheated on me. You don't get to ask me back or talk to me the way you have been." I glanced back to the cell phone again and caught a glimpse of the clock. We had been arguing for almost twenty minutes even though it felt like two. All the awkward silences between us were killing me. Jake just kept giving me pained looks, as though he had lost his puppy, but he never had it to begin with. "You need to leave Jake. He's coming over soon, so you need to go."

"I should meet him. If he makes you happy, I think I should meet him," said Jake in frustration. I wanted to head to the cupboard and grab Charlie's cast iron skillet that hadn't been used in at least five years and knock him upside the head, rendering him unconscious, but I was too nice for that.

"I don't think that's a good idea. In fact, I would prefer it if you guys never met, because you aren't in my life anymore and he is." I grabbed my jacket from the coat rack behind the door and held it firmly in my hands as I noticed headlights in front of the house again. "I have to go Jacob. So you have to go. I really don't want to have to pull you two apart on my father's lawn because he knows what happened between us. He knows all of it." I stepped out the door, with Jacob at my heels, still trying to get me to talk to him. I raised my hands in frustration as I told him to stay out of my life and then ran to Edward's car through the deep snow on my father's lawn.

When I finally sat in the car and buckled myself in, Edward looked livid.

"Are you okay?" he asked with concern as his breathing seemed to level out. He was upset and he didn't even know what was going on. I started to cry a bit from anger at Jacob showing up at the house, and at Charlie for practically inviting him. Edward pulled over onto a side road and hugged me close to him. My head rested against his chest and I greedily breathed in his scent. "Who were you arguing with?"

"Jacob," I replied tensely. I had images in my head of Edward turning the car around so that he could beat the shit out of Jacob, which is something I know he wanted to do, but I wanted to forget it ever happened. I gripped his hand tightly in mine and kissed his cheek sweetly. Edward reached up and moved the tears from my eyes. "I'm heading home to Seattle tomorrow. I know its a few days early, but I can't stay here."

Edward nodded his head in understanding as he continued to hold me. "Do you want to tell me what happened?"

"What happened was that my father told Jacob he could come over to talk to me. My father, who just a few hours ago, was really sweet at dinner and seemed genuinely concerned with me, told my cheating louse of an ex boyfriend that he should come over and try to patch things up with me." I let out a long sigh as Edward's hands ran gingerly though my hair. "He called me a slut because I'm with you now. Don't worry, I didn't tell him it was you. I just said I was with someone else."

"I don't care if you told Jacob it was me. I would like nothing more than to scream it from the rooftops, or put a fucking float in the Rose Parade confessing that we are together," laughed Edward genuinely, which resulted in a small laugh from me. When Edward had determined I was calm enough, he started the car again and continued down the road.

"I think Alice might be a challenge," I admitted ruefully. "I'm going to talk to her while you're away in L.A. getting ready to move back. I need to talk some sense into her. I know she's mad that she lost Rosalie, but she has her back now. She needs to know I would never do that to her." Edward was pensive for a few moments, clearly thinking very hard about what needed to be spoken next.

"I think something else happened. I think it might have to do with Rose, but I'm not sure. If you see Rosalie, you should ask her about it subtly." I nodded my head in agreement and intertwined his fingers with mine over the console between us. "Don't worry about heading back to Seattle. Emmett and I are gonna go there tomorrow for a few days. I need to find an apartment and so does he. Perhaps we can go out on an actual date when I'm there?"

"Dinner at my place? Alice is usually all over the place in Seattle. I've gone into some of the most random stores and restaurants and she was there, so let's just hang at my apartment, okay?" I suggested eagerly. Edward nodded his head in agreement and continued driving until we came to a small secluded parking lot on the side of the highway. It was clearly an overlook of some sort, where travelers stopped to stretch their legs and take a piss, but I didn't care. I turned my face towards him and immediately felt his hand reach up behind my head and pull me towards him for a kiss. All thoughts disappeared from my mind the moment he kissed me. There was no more Charlie or Jacob, and he was no longer leaving me for a month. It was perfect.

"Push your seat down, now Cullen," I said forcefully when our lips finally parted. Edward looked at me incredulously, perhaps because I was being the aggressor or perhaps because I have rarely called him by his last name. Either way, it didn't matter because he instantly grabbed the handle on the side of his seat, pushing it all the way down. He then slipped his hand between his legs and moved the seat back as far as it would go, and I straddled him the moment he was lying down.

"Bella Swan, what has gotten into you?" asked Edward with a grin as my hands rested on his chest and I began to unbutton his shirt.

"Nothing. That's the problem," I replied with a laugh as Edward sat up slowly and locked his mouth onto my neck, sucking furiously. I had to push him away for a moment to compose myself. "I've never had sex in a car."

"That makes two of us," sighed Edward as he pushed his hands under my shirt to cup my breasts. "I've missed you."

"Are you talking to my tits or me?" I asked curiously as Edward began laughing heartily at my question.

"Both," he said with a grin as he moved one hand between our legs and he pressed his finger firmly against the seam of my jeans at my crotch. I squirmed slightly at his touch, but was instantly wet from knowing how much he wanted me.

This was not going to be as easy as I thought it would. I mean, Bella wanted me, that was never an issue, but doing it in the car was going to be awkward. Bella climbed from my lap and pulled my belt loose as she then began working on my zipper. I reached over and began to loosen her jeans, but felt her hand on mine, halting my actions. I sat in awe as Bella pulled my cock free from my pants and boxers, and began licking the head gently. I was so glad to be able to spend a few more days near her in Seattle before I left to head back to California. Maybe I could even convince her to go apartment hunting with me, I thought to myself as her mouth suddenly enveloped me.

"Ugh, Christ Bella," I moaned out as her hot mouth descended on me and I shivered slightly from her touch. The combination of the cold winter air and Bella's warm mouth was unbearable. As Bella sucked on me harder, I moaned louder. I was almost ready to explode into her mouth when she pulled her pants down and straddled me again, this time sliding my hard cock deep inside of her. This girl was going to be the death of me.

I gripped her hips tightly as she rode me, her hands pressed firmly against my chest. I was enthralled by every move and motion that Bella made, particularly when she threw her head back and called out my name. I loved it all. I knew I was getting close to the edge as I started to push my hips up to meet her thrusts, so I leaned forward a bit and began biting her nipples, which I knew made her crazy. It was only a minute later that she yelled out my name again, panting heavily as I felt her tense around me, her entire body tightening in orgasm, which then released mine.

Bella laid her head down on my chest for a few moments before climbing off of me and pulling her pants back on. I was immediately disappointed, but pleased that we had sex in my car. "You do realize that I will never be able to get into my car again without thinking of you riding me," I explained to Bella as she pulled her hair back into a quick ponytail.

"Maybe that was my mission. You shouldn't have mentioned wanting to take me for a drive," she laughed as she put her hand against my chest. I grabbed it in my own hand and kissed it sweetly. "So we should talk."

Uh-oh.

"About what?" I was instantly nervous. This definitely hadn't been a good-bye fuck, but I had no idea what to expect.

"I know you're going to go back to L.A. soon and you think you'll be a month or whatever, but I want you to know I'll wait for you." She looked so sweet and genuine as she spoke, that I instantly leaned forward and kissed her again. I pulled my pants back up reluctantly and turned back to Bella.

"Thank god! I was so worried for a second when you said you wanted to talk. I am going to do my damnest to make sure the break isn't too long and I am going to call you and email as much as possible. You'll find me annoying in no time," I said with a laugh as I continued my little rant. "I want to get out of L.A. and back to you as soon as possible. Speaking of which, do you want to go apartment hunting with me in a few days?"

Bella was quiet for a few moments before nodding her head. "Only if you'll go couch shopping with me." I agreed happily and kissed her again before there was a sudden knock on the window, scaring the hell out of both of us. I rolled down the window nervously, only to find a Forks Police Officer standing there with a flashlight.

"Good Evening Folks. You do realize you shouldn't be parked here for extended lengths of time don't you?" he asked as he bent to look in the car more, and noticed we were both fully dressed. Thank god he wasn't here five minutes earlier.

"Yes Officer," I replied tensely as the policeman got a weird look on his face and stroked his beard for a moment.

"Bella is that you?"

"Um yeah. Hi Officer Willinholly," said Bella shyly as she raised her hand and waved it at him sweetly. "Don't worry. It was completely G rated in here. We were just talking."

"Whatever you say Bella, but steamy windows do not make this scene G rated," he said with a laugh as Bella and I glared at each other in embarrassment. "I'm assuming Charlie and Jacob are not aware of this?"

"I'm not with Jacob anymore and well… Charlie doesn't know about my friend here yet, and I'd like to keep it that way if you don't mind." I was actually surprised when the officer nodded his head in agreement at Bella.

"Not a problem hon. Sasha and Tara have missed you terribly. Are you in town for a while? I'm sure they'd love to catch up with their favorite babysitter." Bella was a babysitter… I had no idea. Unfortunately my head immediately flooded with thoughts of her tucking the girls into bed and then me sneaking over to make out with her on the couch until the parents came home. Oh, I had missed so much in my teen years.

"Sorry Ted. I'm leaving tomorrow morning to head back to Seattle."

"Well, have a safe trip and make sure you stop by to visit them next time you're in town." Bella nodded her head at him and then called out' Merry Christmas' as he walked away from the car, leaving us both a little flustered.

"That was just weird. Thank god he didn't come by any sooner," I laughed as Bella buried her head in her hands, completely mortified. "Don't worry sweetheart, he seemed honest enough. I doubt he will tell Charlie anything."

I started the car and we headed back towards town. When we pulled in front of Bella's house it was almost two in the morning, and Jacob had finally left. Bella gave me a quick peck on the cheek before she reached down to open the car door. "I'll text you tomorrow. When are you heading into the city?"

"I was hoping to be out of the house before noon. I need to make a hotel reservation though," I sighed as I thought of all the important decisions I would need to make in the next few days. If I found an apartment, that would definitely be a big load off of my shoulders.

"Well, when you've got everything settled, let me know and we can make solid plans for that dinner date we discussed," said Bella with a grin as she opened the door and stepped out. "I'll miss you." She shut the door behind her before I even got a chance to tell her I would miss her as well. I drove slowly on the way home, since snow was starting to fall and the roads were already treacherous. I ended up back at my parents twenty minutes later and was slowly climbing the stairs up to my room when I heard the voice.

"Where were you?" asked Alice with concern.

"I went for a drive. It helps me clear my head," I replied in frustration as I walked towards her. She was sitting in the living room in Carlisle's favorite recliner. "What are you doing up so late?"

"Waiting for you," she replied flatly as I sat on the couch across from her.

"I'd say I'm flattered, but I'm exhausted Alice. Can the Spanish inquisition wait until the morning?" I asked with a hopeful tone to my voice.

"No. I don't want you to try to date Rosalie," said Alice like a fierce mama bear. I started to laugh, but she was dead serious. She thought I wanted Rose. "She's been through some crazy stuff in the past five years and doesn't want to spend time with Emmett or you, so please don't push this. The fact that you mentioned her earlier tonight immediately made me think you wanted her, and then Emmett and I argued about the same thing."

"I don't want Rosalie Alice. I was just making conversation because I think your rule regarding us not date your friends is ridiculous. I mean, you already like these girls, so they must have potential right?" I asked curiously as she continued to frown at me.

"Edward, Rosalie went through hell when she and Emmett split, and now that I know everything, I don't want that to happen again. I finally have them back; I don't want anything to ruin it."

"Alice… who is them?" I asked curiously. She had more than one person back in her life and it clearly revolved around Rosalie. Was this why Alice didn't want us dating her friends? Could this be related to why she wasn't excited that Em and I were moving back to Seattle?

"Pretend I didn't say anything," sighed Alice in frustration at herself as she stood from the chair and went to head up to her room. I grabbed her arm and pulled her back down to the first step.

"What the fuck are you talking about?" I yelled at her, a little too loudly considering everyone else was asleep in our house. Alice led me outside the house and onto the front steps, the night air positively freezing both of us.

"You cannot say anything to anyone about this Edward. I promised Rosalie, and I don't want them to leave because of this."

"Who the fuck is them, Alice?"

"Rosalie and Logan."

"She's got a boyfriend, good for her." I said with a sigh. Alice was making this entire situation way too confusing for me.

"He's not her boyfriend. He's her son. Logan is five years old and he's Emmett's."

Holy Fuck.

A/N: Raise your hand if you're shocked? *coldplaywhore raises her own hand* The mystery of Alice is solved, too bad I just opened a whole new can of worms!
