"Rosalie, get your butt up," I said as I opened her door.
"Go away, Bella," Rosalie told me as she pulled the blanket over her head. I turned the bedroom light on. I was through with asking nicely.
"Bella, turn the light off. I am trying to sleep."
"No, it is time to get up. We have to go to work," I told her.
"Work? I don't have a job, Bella," Rosalie said with her eyes closed. I went over to the bed and pulled the blankets off of her.
"Yes you do. You are now an employee at Cullen's. Congratulations. Now get up. You have to be there in an hour."
Rosalie sat up and glared at me. She grabbed her cell phone and looked at the time. "Bella, why the hell am I up at five-thirty," she grasped.
"Because you have to be there at six-thirty. Now get dressed." I walked out of her room and went down stairs to where Edward was making coffee. I walked over to where he stood and placed a small kiss on his neck.
"Is the princess awake?" Edward asked as he put his arms around him.
"Barely," I answered as I laid my head on his chest "I fear that she will have a hard first day."
Edward laughed "Unlike you did. You were perfect."
"I tripped and spilt a whole tray of drinks on me. Everyone laughed at me even you did."
"I was not laughing at you. I was laughing because of the cute little face you were making," He explain before he kissed me softly.
"Liar," I said against his lips.
"Oh please, do you two really have to do that so early?" Rosalie complained as she walked into the kitchen.
"That's what people do when they love each other. If you are wanting to stay here then you are just going have to get used to it," I told her. She rolled her eyes at me and made towards the coffee maker. "Oh no you don't," I grabbed her before she could go any farther.
"What the hell, Bella?" she exclaimed.
"You are pregnant, Rosalie. Caffeine will hurt the baby. You have to be more careful," I told her. Edward nodded his head in agreement.
"You don't have time to grab a cup anyway. You have to get to work," He said and grabbed his keys. "I'll be waiting for you ladies in the car."
*CLT*
As we were driving down the road, I thought about my first day working for Edward. I was so nervous. I couldn't deny that I felt a longing for Edward when I first met him. He was just so beautiful, sitting at his desk. I sighed and looked out the window and thought back to the day where I thought I made a complete fool of myself. I am so glad I was wrong.
"Hello, Welcome to Cullen's. My name is Bella and I will be your server. What you like to drink?" the party I was waiting on gave me their order and I smiled and told them that it will be right out.
I walked back to the bar where Jasper was making the drinks. I placed my tray on the bar and told Jasper what I needed. "How is the first day, little lady?" He asked as he started to make my order.
"So far, so good. I haven't even tripped yet."
"I take it that you fall a lot," He stated as he place one of the finished drinks on the tray
"All the time. It's only a matter of time before I do. I just hope that Mr. Masen is not around when I do."
"Edward."
"What?" I asked.
"He hates when people call him Mr. Masen."
"Oh," I said thoughtfully "I'll have to remember that."
Jasper finished making the last of my drinks and said "Bella don't worry about Edward. Even if you do fall or make a mistake, he is not going to think any less of you. And besides some men think it hot when women fall. It gives us the chance to catch them when they do." He winked at me as I took my tray and headed back to the party to give them their drinks.
The rest of the night went in the same fashion. I would take the customer's order and gave the orders to Jasper and he would fill the orders. At some time in the night, Mr. Masen, I mean, Edward came out of his office and started to help Jasper by the bar. I made sure to not go anywhere near him.
Around eleven, the men in the bar started to become drunk. They started to put their hands on me and I would tell them to back off. I was heading back to the bar when I notice that Jasper wasn't there but Edward was.
"Hey Bella," he said when he saw me.
"Oh hey, Edward. Where is Jasper?"
"On break. He will be back soon." I nodded and handed him my order. He made the drinks quickly and I took the tray and walked off. As I walked away, I could feel his eyes on me. "Just keep walking," I told myself "Just keep walking. You are almost to the table. Do not think about your hot, sexy boss behind the bar." I was so focused on Edward that I wasn't looking where I was going. I tripped over my own feet and the drinks spilt all over me. I was completely covered in alcohol. The room was quiet. All the talking in the room stopped as soon as I fell. After a pause, people started to laugh. I slowly looked up and, to my horror, Edward was looking right at me, laughing. I quickly looked away. I couldn't stand to see the mocking in his eyes.
I quickly got up off the floor and ran to the bathroom. When I got there, I was thankful that no one was in there with me. I looked at myself in the mirror and saw all the different colors of drinks. I felt a tear escape from my eye. Any chance I had with Edward was completely gone and there wasn't much chance to begin with.
"Bella?" Edward called from outside the bathroom door. "May I come in?"
I quickly got rid of the tear and told him that it was alright to enter. He came in and walked straight toward me. "Are you alright?" he asked.
I tried to make a joke out of it "I'm fine. The floor just wanted to talk to me. Don't tell anyone but I think it has a crush on me."
He laughed at my poor excused of a joke and replied "Well I think that it is going to have to get over it because I don't want to see you get hurt."
I smile at his words "I should have brought another shirt."
"Hold on. I have something for you," He told me. He walked out of the bathroom and was back within a minute. He handed me a new shirt. "It's a little big because it's mine but it should do the trick."
"He gave me his shirt," I thought as I looked at it. I smiled at him and told him thank you. He smiled back and told me that he would let me change. I quickly did so and looked at myself again in the mirror. Was I taking too much pleasure in the fact that I was wearing my boss's shirt? No I didn't think so.
I walked back out to the bar and grabbed my tray. Jasper was there "Nice shirt you got there," he commented. I looked over his shoulder and saw that Edward was looking at me. When he saw that I was at him, he winked. I looked back at Jasper and told him "thanks. I think I'm going to keep it." I walked off to help my next table.
"Bella? Baby, we're here."
I opened my eyes and saw that we were at the bar. "I must have fell asleep."
Edward ran his finger across my cheek "That's okay. I really didn't give you time to get a lot of sleep last night."
I laughed "I wasn't complaining."
He laughed too and said "Let's go inside. I'm sure your sister is already making a mess of the place." I nodded my head and opened the car door.
