Isabella's POV

For the rest of the day everyone repeated gossip in hushed tones.

Nobody wanted to incur the wrath of Rosalie.

I didn't blame them.

I couldn't wait for the day to be over.

Not much longer.

I watched the clock tick until the bell rang, and I rushed outside.

There standing next to a blacked out Beamer, was Edward.

He was a sight for sore eyes after all the drama of the day.

"Hello gorgeous." He held out his arms.

I threw myself into them.

"You aight?"

I nodded into his chest.

I just wanted to be in his arms.

"It's been a very drama filled day. I feel so bad for Alice."

"Don't worry about her, worry Carlisle orders hits on those snobs!" Edward laughed.

I didn't think it was funny.

At all.

I believed it.

We spent the afternoon lounging on the couch watching movies.

My dad came home about five-thirty.

"Dad!" I greeted him scooping the pizza boxes from his hands.

"Hello to you, too." He sat his keys on the table and eyed Edward. "I thought I might be feeding an extra mouth."

He seem to be warming up to him.

A little.

Not really.

I got some plates and sodas from the kitchen, setting them on the coffee table.

"How was your day kiddo?"

I sighed.

No better time than the now to tell him about Alice.

"There was a little drama at school."

"Did you get in trouble?"

"No. Mary Alice told the school today she is pregnant and some kids were very nasty about it."

My father choked on his slice.

"Mary Alice is pregnant!"

I nodded.

"Sweet little Mary Alice that comes over here bouncing around, making you her Barbie?"

Again, I nodded.

He finished his slice and leaned back.

"Shit happens."

"Wow. I thought you would be more upset than that."

He gave Edward a murderous look then turned back to me.

"She isn't my daughter. I will say I hope my daughter has learned from her friend's mistake."

He looked very uncomfortable discussing this with me, but I could tell he was trying to make a point to me, as well as Edward.

"I'm paying attention." I assured him and we all went back to watching the movie.

Nothing much else was said while we finished eatting.

"I gotta run." Edward said checking the messages on his phone.

I nodded and got up to walk him out.

When we reached his car, I leaned up on my tiptoes and kissed him.

He grabbed my hips and pulled me closer.

I bit his bottom lip, earning a groan from him.

"Isabella." He scolded quietly.

I giggled and nip my way down his throat.

"I have to go. If I don't I'll lay your ass down over the hood of my car and that wouldn't be very gentlemanly."

"Uh-huh."

We continued to kiss for a few more minutes.

I was grinding against him, and I could feel his hard dick through his pants.

"You're going to be the end of me." He complained before placing one last kiss on my lips and getting in the car.

I walked up the steps and turned to wave as he drove off.

As I walked through the front door the phone started ringing.

I jogged to the kitchen and grabbed it.

"Hello?"

"Hi darling."

Just who I wanted to talk to.

My bitchy, alcoholic mother.

"Hi mom."

"How was your day?"

"Fine."

"How is Mary Alice?"

"Why do you ask?"

"I heard about how things went at school when she announced her pregnancy. Poor thing."

"She's tough. It'll be fine."

"I wish you would stop being mad at me, baby. Why don't you come stay with me this weekend?"

"I have plans with my friends. Remember, you wanted me to have them and now I do."

"Of course. You can still go out, just sleep here. Please Isabella?"

I didn't want to.

She was making me feel guilty.

She had done this my whole life.

Make me feel like a shitty daughter to get her way.

"Ok."

"Oh baby, I'm so excited! I'll see you Friday!" She said before hanging up.

No I love you.

What kind of mother doesn't tell their child that?

My father tells me all the time.

Whatever.

I could survive one weekend.

Wait, how did my mom know about Alice? My dad hadn't even had a chance to call and tell her.

Edward's POV

As soon as I left Isabella's I headed downtown.

Emmett was waiting on me at the warehouse.

I drove up and parked my car.

I pulled an extra gun from my glove box and slipped in in the waistband of my pants. I didn't know what the fuck was going on but I wanted extra heat.

I walked to the back of the warehouse to find Emmett and Alec standing over the bullet ridden body of TJ, one of Em's crew.

"What the fuck happened?"

"He was left next to my Hummer with a note that read 'Guess who's next?' What the fuck kind of shit is that?" Emmett said kicking one of the chairs scattered around.

"Denali's group?"

Em nodded.

"Had to be." Alec said lighting a cigarette.

"What does Carlisle say?"

"Not much. He is busy with Alice after today." Alec flicked his cigarette. "Bottom line, take care of it."

"So what we gon' do boss?" I asked Em.

"Blow something up. That's always fun." He quirked his eyebrows.

"That will start a war." Alec whined.

"They've have already started a war! Oh, that's right, your sister wasn't attacked so shut the fuck up!" I yelled at him.

"I outrank you in case your forgot." Alec chided.

I closed the distance between us in two strides.

I got right up in his face causing his eyes to widen slightly.

"I don't give a fuck where you are on the totem pole, Alec. If you act fucking stupid I will show you fucking stupid. I don't give a fuck."

"Don't make me-"

"Don't make you what? Call Daddy? Call big brother? G'head."

"Edward, chill out. We got enough problems without fighting each other." Emmett said calmly.

I didn't move until he looked away.

Carlisle had his head up Mary Alice's ass.

Alec had his head up his own ass.

This family was going to shit unless one of us stepped up.

Carlisle wanted to open a practice.

Normal hours and a family life and all that bull shit.

He could never escape this life, but he could step down from next in line.

I would be damned if I let the snot nosed brat known as Alec take over.

"When we meetin'?

"I'll let you know. I'm waiting on Dad to get back at me." Em said leaning back on the table.

"See you then." I called over my shoulder not waiting for him to finish his sentence.

I needed to see Isabella.

This was an act of war.

Things were going to get even crazier.

I called her cell, getting no answer.

I didn't even wait before calling right back.

"Hello?" She answered breathless.

"Can you sneak out?"

"Yea, is everything ok?"

"I just need you. We need to talk."

"O-okay." She stuttered.

Great.

Now I had made her nervous.

"Nothing bad baby. Just need to fill you in on something. I'll be at the corner in ten."

I smiled when I pulled up and she was standing under a tree in pajamas and furry boots.

"Cute."

"You called when I was in the shower. I thought something was wrong. I didn't take the time to get fashionable!" She defended herself.

"Relax, doll. I was just picking on you. It's been a long day. I thought I'd lighten the mood."

I kissed her hand.

"I know. I'm just tired and things seem so serious all the time. I'm supposed to go to my Mom's this weekend, but I just want to spend a weekend being lazy." She rambled on.

"I don't want you to go to your mom's."

"Why?" She looked at me questioningly.

"Isabella, that's one of the things I want to fill you in on. Your mom is dating Frank Denali."

"Like the frenemy mob guy?"

"That would be him. I don't believe it's safe for you there. Your mother is mixed up in some shit she doesn't understand."

"And I'm not?" She looked insulted. She may not can stand Renee, but she still loved her.

"It's different. You mean something to me. I will protect you. Just let me do that?" I glanced at with her with what I hoped was a pleading look. I wasn't raised to be soft, cut me a fucking break.

"What am I suppose to tell her?" She leaned back in the seat.

"That I said to fuck off."

"Edward."

"What?"

She was quiet for a little while before opening her mouth to speak and then shutting it again several times.

Isabella's POV

"What is it?" Edward asked peering at me out of the corner of his eye.

"When my mom called today, she asked about Alice's pregnancy and school. I hadn't told her, and I know my dad hadn't had the chance."

"They are having you watched. Sonofabitch! I'm beefing up your security. Naw, fuck that. I'm going to school with you."

I had seen Edward at school a handfull of times all semester and that wasn't even all day events.

"That kind of scares me." I whispered.

"Are you tired of me already?" He asked trying to make me smile.

We needed something to ease the tension.

"I could never get tired of you. I just know things are bad when you are willingly going to school."

He waited several moments before speaking again.

"We receieved a bad message tonight. I don't want to be away from you until I know everything is okay."

"What kind of message?"

"The dead body kind."
