"I'm going down to the hospital." Esme said as she walked through the living room.
"Why?" Jasper asked.
"I'm bored, so I'm going to surprise Carlisle. He finishes soon." She explained.
"Wait, I thought he quit?"
"He doesn't actually finish until a couple of days before we go to Isle Esme." She explained.
"Okay." He turned his attention back to the movie.
I sat in my office finishing off the last bit of paperwork when a knock at the door interrupted me. A nurse came in smiling at me.
"Hi Dr. Cullen." She greeted after closing the door behind her.
"Hello Katrina, what can I do for you?" I asked.
She smirked at me.
I stood to put some things in my bag and she walked over to me. She gently pushed me towards the wall and before I could move, and the door to the office opened again as Esme walked in.
Her mouth fell open and her eyes were filled with pain.
"Esme-" I started
"No. Don't bother coming home." She said before walking out again.
I pushed the nurse away and glared at her before grabbing my bag and running after Esme at a normal speed.
"Esme!" I called out as I walked up to her car.
"How could you do that to me Carlisle? Am I not good enough for you anymore?"
"Esme, you're more than enough. She tried to come on to me and you came in before I could push her away." I tried to explain, but I could tell she didn't believe me.
She shook her head and got in her car. I went in mine to follow her home.
She ran inside before me and slammed our bedroom door before I could walk in after her.
"Esme, please open the door." I pleaded.
"Go away, Carlisle!" She yelled at me.
I heard Alice on the phone, "Rosalie? Don't buy the house. 2 reasons, one bad, one good. Get back as soon as possible."
Edward made his way upstairs. "Carlisle…"
"I didn't do anything Edward." I aid with an annoyed tone.
"I know…" He assured. "Esme? He isn't lying to you."
She walked out with a packed suitcase. "Oh please, she was all over him."
"It wasn't my choice Esme!" I raised my voice slightly.
She glared at me, "I'm going up to Denali for a while." She announced to everyone as she walked down the staircase.
"Esme! Please?" I yelled and she looked at me, shocked that I had yelled at her.
"Talk to me, please." I lowered my voice once I had her attention.
Bella, Melody, Alice and Jasper were all looking at us with confusion.
"Jasper!" she yelled.
"Esme, can we please talk in my office?"
She rolled her eyes, "Fine."
I motioned for her to walk first and followed behind her.
"Esme, I swear I did not allow anything to happen. I am fully committed to you, and even if I wasn't, it wouldn't be her…"
"Oh, right Carlisle, beause that makes it so much better."
"That didn't come out how I wanted it okay? Esme, I would never, ever think of hurting you in any way possible. I would never cheat on you, Esme. I love you and you only."
She was silent.
"Esme I pushed her away immediately."
"And how do I know you're not lying to me?"
"Haven't you known me long enough to know that I have never, and never will lie to you?"
She gave a slight nod.
"Believe me?"
She looked into my eyes for a moment, "You are not going back to that hospital…" she said quietly.
I smiled and before I could speak, she kissed me hard. "You promise that you love me and that you would never cheat on me?" she whispered into my ear.
"Esme, I promise that I love you and will never cheat on you." I kissed her back.
We walked back downstairs and Esme laughed as I whispered a sarcastic remark in her ear.
"That was quick…" Jasper said.
"Edward told us what happened…" Alice said.
"Of course he did." I said. "For the record, nothing happened and she came onto me…"
Melody laughed, "Pulling all the chicks' dad?"
"Melody." Esme warned.
"Sorry. We are going to the reservation tomorrow. They're having a party that we are all invited to and I want to meet them, want to come?" She asked.
I looked to Esme.
"Sure." She smiled.
