A/N: The people have spoken and I agree so...Edward/Bella it is! I hope no one is too upset and that you all continue to read.
"Do you know how irresponsible that was?" Dad yelled as I walked inside. Crap... You knew there was trouble when Dad was mad.
"That was beyond irresponsible, it was stupid!" Yelled Mom.
"I was so worried. Do you know how many times I almost crossed the border onto there territory to come get you? I almost broke the treaty!" This came from Edward who was clearly the most upset. He was standing across the room, his hands in tight fists at his sides and this eyes were black. He was my primary concern. My Edward.
"I'm sorry guys. I'd say that I wish I hadn't gone but I don't. I think my visit to La Push was...beneficial. Plus, they're nice guys."
"Nice guys that turn into big uncontrollable wolves!" Dad chided. Well, there was that tiny detail.
"What do you mean by beneficial?" Carlisle asked, trying to be rational but you could tell he wasn't happy either.
"Well they really hate you guys and were under the impression that you were awful people. I told them more about you and there opinions of you changed...slightly," I tried to explain.
"And that was worth risking your safety?" Mom was still yelling.
"First of all, I don't think they're that dangerous. I was pushing Paul's buttons pretty hard and he never came close to phasing into wolf form. Second of all, yeah it was worth it." There was science for what felt like an eternity. Finally Mom some in a more measured tone,
"You're grounded for two weeks."
I sighed. "Fair enough." She continued,
"And if you think you're seeing that dog tomorrow you are so wrong."
"I'm sorry but I am going to see him tomorrow. It sucks that you don't see it as a good thing but that is your problem." She growled before huffing away with Dad following. I sighed and walked over to my very angry Edward pulling on his arm.
"Come on." He left me pull him up the stairs but his hands were still baffled into fists and his teeth were gritted. When we got to my bedroom, I closed the door and wrapped my arms around his hard figure, burying my head in his chest.
"I'm still angry," he said through his teeth.
"I know," I replied. He took a deep breath and wrapped his arms around me, loosening his fingers somewhat.
"I was so worried," he practically choked out.
"I know. I'm so sorry you were worried."
"This Jacob guy, you really think he's not dangerous?" He asked incredulously.
"Yeah, I do Edward. You're just going to have to trust me."
"I do trust you. It's them I don't trust."
"Well you'll have to learn."
He snorted but turned serious. "Please, just, just don't upset them. Be careful and if something goes wrong, anything at all, call me."
"I will," I promised. Just like that it was over and my loving and still overprotective Edward was back, angry Edward long forgotten. We laid around for awhile on my bed.
"So no dates for two weeks?" Edward said as I laid on top of him.
"Mhmm, how will we survive?" I asked as I kissed his his neck. He flipped me over so that he was suddenly on top of me, making me giggle.
"Oh I'm sure we'll figure it out." He kissed me briefly before flipping onto his back. Tease.
"So what should we do now?"
"I have a couple of ideas." He took me to the piano room where he played a few beautiful songs for me, afterwards he ordered Italian food and then we settled on the couch and watched a movie about a married couple in there twenties where we were joined by the family making it impossible for us to make out but I was okay with that because it gave Dad and I a chance to talk so I was happy when he sat down beside me.
"Dad," I began but he interrupted.
"That was so careless Bella." He said, glaring down at me.
"Yeah, I'm beginning to gather that," I muttered.
"Good. You had everyone worried and upset."
"I know. I'm sorry." His face softened.
"Don't be so reckless again."
"I wont. I'm sorry Daddy." Knowing he melted when I called him Daddy, he wrapped his arm around me.
"It's okay, baby." After then I was able to enjoy the movie, knowing the worst was over.
After the movie Edward and I played chess with Alice and Jasper. Alice didn't seem angry which is why I was so surprised that Jasper was. While we were playing chess and he continued to glare at me I snapped,
"Yes, I know it was irresponsible so you can drop the 'I'm pissed at Bella' routine, okay?"
"Do you? I get what you're trying to do and its very noble but the wolves are natural enemies of vampires. You can't change that."
"That's crap and if anyone cared enough to try you'd be surprised by what could happen. Check."
"You don't know what you're talking about!"
Don't I though? Checkmate. If that's not a sign that I'm right then I don't know what is." I'd never won at chess against them before and everyone stopped to stare at the chess board. Oh yeah...
