Me: Hello all!

Emmett: Why are you so cheerful? Haven't you left everyone hanging for over two weeks?

Edward: Umm…Emmett, she did have a lot of school, work hours and school work she had to do.

Emmett: So? She could have kept writing when she wasn't doing all that other stuff, what was so important that she couldn't let my fans read the outcome of the last chapter?

Me: Sleep

Emmett:…Sleep? That is what kept you away? Sleep is for the weak you do not need sleep.

Edward: She kind of does Em…she is human and without sleep they do tend to get sick and die, its not her fault if she is weak! She is also only a short little girl of twenty!

Me: Yeah you tell him Edward...Wait a damn minute I am not weak! *silence* Are you two even listening to me! *still the sounds of bickering* Listen to me I command you!

Emmett and Edward: *continuing their arguing completely disregarding the brilliant writer with a cell phone*

Me:…Okay then, while I go ahead and make a couple of phone calls for some help, mainly the lovely Bella and Rosalie, Enjoy the next chapter. I do not own anything to do with the creation of twilight, the crazy vamps all belong to Stephenie Meyer, for which I am at the moment thankful.

Chapter 15:

(BPOV)

"And then what happened? Come on Bella, Ben and I didn't get to see what happened after Em flipped out on you and Edward!" Angela appears to have caught the dangerous disease known only as the Alice Bug. For you see my Monday has not started with the usual Monday questions of "How are you?" or "Did you have fun at Mass yesterday?" No! It is all about the drama that has only recently entered my poor excuse of a social life. Who could have ever thought there could be so much drama in high school?

"Come on Ang, do I really have to tell you guys this now?" I batted my eyelashes innocently hoping they would drop the subject.

The look I was getting from these two told me they weren't buying my bull shit. "Bella, you were late getting here again this morning, and how often do we get a free day in Math class?" Ben had a point; we don't often get a day where the math teacher accidentally had his test erased by his two year old five minutes before leaving for work. "Fine I will tell you but no interruptions!"

Ah Sunday, I remember it as though it were yesterday…okay it was just yesterday but I really really really wanted to forget it…at least the first part…well the part where Emmett walked into the music room not the part where I was sleeping with Edward…we were really sleeping!

Any who, I remember having the most wonderful of dreams, something to do with vampires and actions that require many cold showers to prevent them from getting too out of hand (note to self: do not watch True Blood for a while). I was getting to the good part where the vampire Edward was about to suck my…um…blood(?)...when I hear the most wonderful growl of Emmett.

"Why the fuck are you sleeping with your arms wrapped around my sister!" I jolted awake and fell off the couch to the ground below, taking Edward down with me, seeing how his arms were still wrapped around my waste. I looked up to see a very angry grizzly standing in the doorway, followed by the nervous faces of Alice, Rosalie and everyone else…including Esme and Carlisle.

Edward and I looked at each other for a minute, the memory of our chat last night and our kiss painting my face bright red…which probably didn't help the situation seeing how it now looked as though Em had steam coming out his ears (I think he mistook my blush for meaning something else, didn't help that Edward was turning pink) I took it upon myself to try and explain what we were doing "We were sleeping?" did I mean to make it sound like a question…I think not.

"And why were you two sleeping in the same room? On the same couch? And you without much clothing on?" Em was practically hyperventilating.

Rose tried to calm him "Em baby breath, I'm sure they just fell asleep as they were talking or something. It's not that big of deal." Em stepped away from her as she tried to give him a hug, Alice and Angela came up to stand by Rose in support (it's a girl thing).

Em looked at her as though she had two heads "Not that big of deal? NOT THAT BIG OF DEAL? They weren't with the rest of us when we all woke up, we each spent thirty minutes looking for the two of them, and all along they were canoodling on the couch!"

"We were not canoodling!" Edward managed to get out before my hand was over his mouth shutting him up, now was not the time for Edward to talk back to the grizzly if he wanted to live to see tomorrow.

I took a deep breath, looked my brother right in the eyes, put my big girl panties on and said "And even if we were what's it to you? If I want to canoodle with my…" I looked at Edward at a loss of what to say for a couple of heart beats, I didn't want to say boyfriend, it sounded too kidish, love of my life was a stretch so I said the first thing to pop in my head "dream guy then why shouldn't I?" I took Edward's hand in mine and gave in a squeeze as he raised our joined hands to his lips for a soft kiss (again causing me to turn into Bob the tomato).

Emmett blanched "So what you're an item now?" The rest of our audience was in silence, except for the sounds of munching pop corn courtesy of Esme and Alice (so that is where she gets it from…)

Edward and I looked at each other for a moment before I turned back to Em, "I guess we are." The room was silent for a minute before Carlisle asked "Which one confessed to whom?" I stared at him before he continued "You know, who asked who out?"

"I don't see why it matters but I guess Edward did cause he kissed me first." Edward shook his head "No you cause you said I was the guy of your dreams before I called you my fallen Angel." "Okay I can live with that."

"YESSSSS! I win. I win I win I win." Carlisle started dancing around the music room as though his pants caught on fire.

"Nooooooooooo!" Esme leaned her head against the wall as she banged her fist repeatedly. We all looked at them as though they has grown wings and flew.

Jasper took it upon himself to ask "Um…what?"

Carlisle stopped his dancing to answer "Esme and I had a little bet going after the gathering at the hospital l few weeks ago. I bet that Bella would confess first and Esme bet that it would be Edward. And now I won!"

"What did you guys bet?" I wished Rose didn't ask that question.

It was Esme's and Carlisle's turn to blush "Um…you see kids…mommies and daddies need some…excitement sometimes before they…um…Carlisle what's the word I'm looking for?"

"Have intercourse dear."

"Yes, have intercourse, and we had a bet on…um…outfits or...um…stuff…and well…"

"Mom for the love of God stop talking!" Alice squealed before running out the room, Rose right behind her yelling something about pouring acid in her brain. Edward had his head in his hands as he groaned.

Esme and Carlisle went to check on the girls as Carlisle yelled "Come on its not like we don't talk about this kind of thing as a family. At least we're honest about it, would you rather your mother and I sleep in separate rooms and pretend to not be intimate anymore?"

"Yes!" Could be heard from somewhere down the hall. Wow…who knew parents could be so open with their children…I see a family therapist being paid very well in the near future.

Angela and Ben were standing in the door way looking very uncomfortable "Um I think Ben and I should be heading home now…see ya!" The two of them turned tail and practically ran to Ben's car, leaving Em, Jasper, Edward and I alone in the music room.

You cold hear a pin drop in that room.

Finally Em spoke up. "Fine, if you want to date him then I can't stop you but you know what you have to do now don't you?"

"Go to Disney World?" Em gave me a glare that said the joke did not in anyway work.

"He has to be introduced to the family." I could feel the color drain from my face and see Jasper shake in his attempts to keep from laughing.

Edward apparently did not catch the meaning. "Em, your family already knows me."

"They don't know you as Bella's Boyfriend" Emmett's evil grin sent chills down my spine.

"So, how bad can it be?" Poor unsuspecting Edward. Jasper and I traded a look between us knowing full well what was going to happen next…

An hour later I found myself in Edward's car as he drove me back to my house, Emmett and Jasper having gone ahead to warn the rest of the Swan family that we would be having a visitor for the afternoon. I prayed to God that Jasper would be able to calm the situation…Edward still had no idea what was coming.

"Bella, relax, what's the worst your family will do to me?"

"You do realize every member of my family that is of age has a gun license. My brother in-law is a fireman, my dad and cousin/brother are cops so they could hide your body pretty well, Leah is scary and my Uncle can fail you."

"You're over reacting" Edward told me with his drop dead gorgeous smirk. After we turned the corner onto my street and he saw the front of my house the smirk was replaced with a look of pure fear. As I saw what he was looking at I started to repeatedly slam my head against the car window. The entire family was standing or sitting outside.

My dad was dressed in his uniform complete with holster, gun in holster thank you universe. Leaning against the porch railing was Sam, also dressed in uniform complete with loaded holster, with his arm wrapped around the lovely Emily, who was polishing what looked like a paint ball gun (I hoped). Sitting on the porch swing was Leah, playing with an old hunting dagger that belonged to her grandfather, her legs resting on top of Jacob's lap. Resting on said lap was an old double barreled shotgun he used when he and Sam go out hunting, it appeared as though he was only cleaning it.

Uncle Peter stood to the left of the swing by the door his arm wrapped around Aunt Charlotte's waist holding his cell phone; said Aunt was giving Edward the trademark Swan evil eye as Uncle Peter was trying to give me a smile that said he was sorry (not as sorry as I was at the moment). Mama Sue was leaning on the other railing playing with a rolling pin that looked really heavy. Emmett stood beside her playing with the new hunting riffle he got for his 18th birthday. The only family not looking like they were gearing up for a fight was Jasper, who was holding a smiling Cabby, and Seth, who was too busy letting his action figures attack each other to really care about what was going on (I could even see Scamp glaring at Edward from my window!). I could hear Edward's heart beat as he looked at the scene before him…

"You have got to be kidding me! Your family actually did that!" Ben managed to get out between hysterical bits of laughter.

Sadly I nodded my head. The telling of what happened only took 15 minutes but it felt like a life time.

"Then what happened?" Angela asked as she wiped a tear from her eye.

"Edward and I got out of the car; my dad told Edward what would happen if he ever hurt me, my cousin Garrett and his wife threatened Edward's manhood via my uncle's cell phone. After Edward promised not to treat me wrong Mama Sue invited him to dinner and told everyone to put the ammo away that they had scared the poor boy enough as it was." I left out the part where Edward kissed me goodnight before driving himself home.

"Well it seems like everything worked out well in the end." Angela told me as the Bell rang for the end of class.

"I guess it did…"

In Spanish class I had to give Alice a retelling of what happened, apparently Edward did not tell his sisters anything other then we ate dinner. Spanish seemed to go by slowly, I really wanted it to hurry up so I could see my Edward (yep bitches he's mine now!) since we were late again this morning we couldn't see the gang before school.

I was a little nervous at how Em would behave at lunch but my fears were all for nothing when he didn't even glare at Edward's arm around my waist as we stood in the lunch line. Granted I was getting quite a few glares from the rest of the female population in the cafeteria but for some reason I didn't care that they were all looking at me.

Standing there in line with Edward I realized that it felt right to have his arm around me, like we were two pieces of a puzzle.

Me: I hope you guys liked the chapter! I will try to update as soon as I get the chance again. Hint hint: it will skip ahead a couple of months to around Alice's B-Day!

Jasper: Um…hey Emily, Alice sent me over but didn't tell me why.

Me: Well…you see Bella and Rose took Emmett and Edward somewhere after calling me a weak human and I need a fill in till they get back.

Jasper:…okay…

Me: Don't worry it doesn't have to make sense! See you all next time!
