Bella:
"So…what do you think of the article?" Edward asks us all. After the magazine article was printed, he gathered everyone – Alice, Jasper, Esme, Carlisle, Rose and Emmett – at our house to ask for opinions.
"I love it. It's like a 'fuck you' to the press and Jessica," Rose shrugs, looking impressed. Woah, she must like it.
"I completely agree," Carlisle nods, grinning cheekily. Esme gives him a warning glare. "What? I didn't swear! She did," Carlisle shouts, pointing at Rose. She just shrugs again.
"Well, honey, I think you handled the questions perfectly, but didn't give too much away," Esme smiles warmly at her son.
"Thank you, Edward, for what you said…about me. You, uh, easily deflected," Alice looks shy with her admission, so Edward pulls her in for a big hug.
Everyone turns to Emmett, to hear his opinion, but he's a little preoccupied. With a little kitten.
"I think I'm gonna call it Thor," Emmett announces, completely oblivious. Rose launches into a lecture on why you can't call a kitten Thor, but she's not as harsh on him due to still being in honeymoon bliss. They only got back a couple of days ago.
I lean, lightly, against Edward, scared of crushing him with my weight. He attempts to wrap an arm around me, but he can't quite reach around.
"What do you think, Jasper?" Edward asks, looking over to his PA.
Jasper takes a look at the magazine once more before answering. "Great. Though, you are attending the Oscars," Jasper informs him.
"Thank god someone feels the same!" I cry out in relief, glaring towards Edward.
"But, Bella's going to be really big by then…" Edward trails off.
"And you're nominated for Best Actor, the film is nominated for Best Picture, and the director is nominated for Best Director. How many times has that happened before?" Jasper demands.
"Not before…" Edward murmurs. "But neither has Bella being pregnant!" Edward quickly adds.
"I'm not gonna give birth then, though, am I? You'll miss one evening with me, what's the big deal?" I huff, poking his arm.
Edward sighs, before leaning down to kiss me chastely. That's the only way he ever kisses me, now. Short and sweet.
Our serene afternoon is ruined by a banging at the door, so Edward's goes to answer it.
"Jessica, what the fuck are you doing here?"
A/N: Next chapter: final Jessica showdown ;D
Um, so sorry for not updating in a few days. Lots of...real life stuff has been happening, and I've just been so stressed and upset I felt like if I wrote anything I'd end up killing off half the characters.
Not good.
But, I'm back now, and will continue updating regularly.
Also, I'm hoping to update Long Lost Brother this weekend, and possible Normal Meeting Abnormal :)
Review please - can we make it to 800? I'd think I'd squeal a lot ;)
