Chapter 16: Concert T's, neighbors and interventions. Oh My!
Beta: vintagejgc
Revenge. Plain and simple. I think I will bide my time. I'll make him wait; make him suffer with nonchalant tiny manipulations here and there while I concoct the perfect payback. And you know what they say about payback... It is going to be a bitch and in Emmett's case, it will be a bitch of epic proportion.
Emmett, you will pay for the little incident involving my arm. I commence obsessive plotting!
"Bella..."
I huff. Don't use that tone with me Edward. "What? If he had ripped your arm off, would you just let it go?"
He backed off. "Probably not."
What the hell was I thinking when I promised Carlisle that I wouldn't remove any of Em's body parts? God, now I'm the sucker. I sigh. Something tells me that Carlisle is always the voice of reason. Edward laughed and then took off running. I beat him home of course. I found Alice on the front porch waiting for us.
"How's the arm?" She asks with a smile.
"Just fine, no thanks to you. You could have warned me." I attempt to shoot imaginary daggers into her eyes.
"Bella! He didn't plan to do it, so it was impossible for me to see it coming and I don't see everything you know, nor do I sit around looking into your future all day." She crossed her arms over her chest. "Oh and by the way, you should check with me first before you make another bet with Edward."
She smirked and then grabbed my arm and dragged me inside. To my dismay, we end up in my closet again. Alice is frantically searching for the perfect outfit for me. The clothes are flying around me like a tornado. Something just landed on my head. Upon further investigation, it turned out to be a red dress.
"It will match your eyes," Alice squeaked.
I sped into the bathroom to curse at the reflection in the mirror. Doh! Red again! The human blood... Donated or not, the affects are clear. So red, yet so bright are my creepy eyes. They almost glow.
"Don't change them Bella."
"Alice, I look like the devil." I do! Just call me Diablo.
"I just think you should wait until morning to change them. They will really freak out Tanya." Alice just wiggled her eyebrows at me.
"Tanya?"
"Yes, she and the rest of her family are coming to visit today."
"In that case, screw the red dress. I will need something shorter, much shorter." That blonde vamp better watch herself. I may have promised to keep all of Emmett's limbs attached but the thought of a twitching armless Tanya makes me giggle.
All of the sudden, Edward was standing in the doorway looking concerned.
"Please tell me why the hell you are thinking about that?"
Whoops! I smiled and patted his head. Sorry Edward. I was just... How do I explain this without coming off like a super jealous bitch? I guess there is no point in even trying now, as Edward just heard that.
Edward stared at me with a disapproving look. Alice snatched up the red dress and proceeded to rummage through the endless clothing. "Alice?" He asked.
"I can't find the right shoes," she grumbled. "This won't work. Bella, I need to get you more shoes immediately. Edward, can you go in my closet and grab the Jimmy Choo's? The black one's with the silver straps. They should work."
"Alice!"
"What? Can't you see that I am busy trying to make your women look fabulous?" Did she just throw a boot at him?
"Just take a peek, will you?"
"Calm down. I am sure whatever she was thinking is a lot worse than what will actually happen. Now go and fetch me the shoes."
He scoffed and ducked, barely missing the second boot that Alice winged at his head. Edward ran away and Alice stopped. She stared at the wall for a moment and then looked really mad.
"Carlisle!" She screamed. With our super hearing, the yelling really is so unnecessary. Alice raced out of the closet. I followed her down the hall into the bat cave. She stood in front of Carlisle and started growling. He held in his hands a large cardboard box.
"What do you think you're doing?" She asked.
"Alice, we talked about this." He replied as he gripped the box protectively.
"Give me the box." She said as she stepped closer to him.
"Never!" He exclaimed, right before he jumped out the window with the mystery box.
I watched from the window as Alice chased him around the yard muttering something about cheap cotton.
"I got the shoes." Edward said as he entered the room. He came over to the window and looked out. "What the... Oh shit."
He followed suit and jumped out the window to join the chase. He grabbed Alice and she kneed him in the groin. He fell to the ground and then yelled for Jasper and Emmett. When Jasper appeared beside me, he looked confused.
"What are they doing? What's wrong with Edward?"
"I am not sure exactly. Alice is trying to get that box away from Carlisle."
"What's in the box?"
"Don't know, but Alice just started going crazy. She just kneed Edward in the balls. What the hell could be so important?"
Just then, Edward jumped up and tackled Alice from behind. He is totally struggling to keep her down. "Jasper, a little help here."
Jasper sighed and jumped out the window. He and Edward held her down, but just barely. She is kicking and screaming and begging them to let her go so that she can destroy it all. She may very well be possessed.
Carlisle was in the room once again. The closet door flew open to reveal a rather large safe. His fingers swirled around the combination, the safe opened; the box was placed safely inside. He closed the safe and sat in front of it.
"That was close." He breathed a sigh of relief.
Alice is still screaming. I looked out to see Edward, Jasper and Emmett all pig piled on top of her. Carlisle was next to me shaking his head.
"Bella, I need to ask a favor."
"OK, but I must know what the hell is in the box."
"Clothes." He replied
"Clothes? Why is she freaking out?"
"She claims that my sense of style is flawed. She insisted that I throw them out, but they're my favorites. I won't do it. I have caught her on several occasions trying to steal them. She came way to close this time. Last time, she tried to burn them. I have gone to great lengths to try and protect them. Please Bella, make her stop."
"They're just clothes? Have you considered buying new ones?" God knows they have the money.
"I can't. They are sentimental and irreplaceable."
"Well, you have them in the safe now. They should be free from harm."
He laughed. "The safe won't hold Alice off for long. She will watch for the future and get the combination from one of her visions. She has done it before. I have resorted to changing the combination on a daily basis. It is just ridiculous! Please Bella, if she gets her hands on them..."
Damn, Alice really is vicious about fashion. She is fighting tooth and nail to gain control of Carlisle's wardrobe. Carlisle is protecting a slew of old concert T's, tie dye shirts, ripped up jeans and converse. They are both insane.
I jumped out the window and walked over to the pile of vampires.
"Can't you calm her down Jasper?" I asked.
"I'm trying." He said as he took a kick to the chin from his wife. "Ow! Dammit woman!"
She looked at me and scowled. "Bella, don't you dare." She started pushing harder and even three vampires were struggling to hold her down. I knelt down next to her and held her head down.
"This is for your own good Alice." I smiled down at her.
"Traitor!" She screamed.
Let it go Alice. Just let it go. Leave Carlisle's clothes alone.
"No!"
"Alice, I'm not asking. I am telling you, leave his old clothes alone."
"But they're horrible." She just whimpered. Poor thing. She has a serious addiction to all things high fashion, but it doesn't end there. She feels the need to bring this affliction to her entire family. Louis Vuitton, Dolce and Gabbana, Gucci, Prada... these things are like drugs to her. This is a fashion intervention. She seems genuinely crushed by her loss of control of Carlisle's attire.
Edward is now laughing. "She is crushed, literally. Can we get off of her now?"
After the madness died down, I have a sudden urge to flee this house, again... Carlisle has thanked me countless times and he is smiling at me and winking constantly. I am beginning to wonder if he has developed some sort of weird eye twitching that we have all mistaken for winking. Esme is begging Carlisle to stop hugging his beloved shirts and she suggests that The Ramones T-Shirt really should be destroyed, along with his leather pants. Emmett is M.I.A. Edward says he fears my wrath after the arm fiasco. Rosalie is holed up in the garage, taking out her never ending frustration on a car or two. Alice is either ignoring me or growling at me and she has threatened to never give me fashion advice again. I sincerely hope she follows through with that.
Jasper has curled himself into a ball on the couch in the great room. He hasn't moved an inch in a long time. Edward... Well, he won't stop laughing. I think he may be laughing at me, but he won't stop laughing long enough to answer any of my questions. This entire family is in need of some serious fucking therapy.
To top it all off, we are expecting Tanya and her family to arrive soon. I ask you, what do vampires do when they get together? My recollection of social gatherings consisted of food and alcoholic beverages. We don't eat and we don't drink, which makes me super curious as to what we will spend our time doing. Is this just five more freaking crazy vampires that will continue to help the build up to my new-life crisis? The suspense is killing me.
And there goes Edward on another laughing binge. He is acting as if my inner monologue is comic genius. He really needs to get a grip.
I have escaped to the greenhouse. Actually, I have been sneaking out here every once in a while to water my sunflowers. Esme was right. They are growing. My baby sunflowers are emerging from the soil. I grew something!
Boredom has gotten the best of me and I have begun to rummage through all of the stuff out here. I have assembled more planter boxes after coming across a myriad of seeds. So I planted seeds, lots of seeds.
"They will be here in ten minutes." Alice shouted.
I looked down at my now soiled clothes and my hands are covered in dirt. This will not do. I 'm off to my closet at vampire speed and Alice is no where in sight. Yes!!!
I decide to forego the short skirt and opt for a long one. Fuck Tanya. I am not dressing up on her account. All the while I am contemplating wearing the black lingerie and thigh high boots in hopes that Edward will drag me off caveman style and have his way with me, in order to avoid our guests. His laughter echoes through out the house. I can't wait until his twenty four hours are up. Maybe I should try and manipulate time.
"Please don't. I am enjoying this way too much." He walks into the closet.
Well, at least he is not laughing at me anymore. I can cross off straight jacket on my list of things to buy for Edward. He tries to hide his obvious amusement over that last thought. I make a mental note to add him to my list of people I would like to slowly torture. He will be right up there with Emmett.
And so the Bella show begins. It wasn't really a chance for our vampire neighbors to simply visit. It seems they are all here to meet me. There was a lot of hugging and welcoming me to the family. Eleazar is tall with dark hair and big but not as burly as Emmett. I have caught him staring at me numerous times, but other than that, he seems quiet and very laid back. His wife Carmen is this tiny little Latin woman who loves to talk. I've known her for all of three minutes and we she has managed to invite me on hunting trips and ski trips and she is just way too excited. She talks quicker than anyone I have ever met.
"Don'tyoujustloveAlaska?Wewillhavetogohuntingtogether!?Doyouski?.DoesAlicedressyoutoo?.!Esme!Howisthegreenhousecoming?"
It is amazing to me that I can even understand what she is saying. Esme has now joined us and Carmen has now switched the subject to gardening. I slip away only to be accosted by Kate and Irina. The two blond vamps that are holding hands and smiling at me. They remind me of the evil gossip twins.
"Welcome to the family Bella." Kate is hugging me again. She steps back, looks at Irina and giggles.
Both of them stare at me. Not again! I can't stand the nonstop attention. I don't want to be the shiny new toy.
Listen bitches, stop staring. Now.
Amazing... They both begin to look around. I can tell they are confused. I let out a tiny laugh.
"Sorry." Irina said. "So, you're with Edward?"
"Yeah."
They both giggled again.
"Sorry Bella." Kate repeated. "It's just that women have been throwing themselves at Edward for decades and he never seemed interested in any of them. We suspected he was gay."
More girly laughter ensued. I laughed too. Heck, I suspected the same thing when I first saw him.
Edward shifted in his seat and gave me a look of shock. I shrugged my shoulders. Sorry...
"Good for you. It's about time Edward found someone. He seems more relaxed than usual." Irina said.
"That is only because Tanya isn't here. She drives him up the wall." Kate snickers.
"Where is she anyways?" I ask. "I thought she was coming today."
"She should be here soon. She got held up on her way back from town. She'll show. She never passes up an opportunity to see Eddie."
I try to think happy thoughts, but the only thing that will make me smile is the thought of ripping Tanya to shreds if she touches Edward. I look over to see Edward's crooked smirk in full force.
Enjoy it while you can Edward. Once this is over, I don't think I will let you back in my head for a while. I find telepathy quite the annoyance at the moment.
He pats the space next to him on the chair and motions for me to join him. I reluctantly walk over to him, but I decide to sit on his lap.
"You are incredibly sexy when you're jealous, but you have no need to be." He whispers in my ear. "How long is a while?"
I ignore his question and place a chaste kiss on his lips then rest my head on his shoulder. Edward's body went totally stiff and then Alice ran over.
"Bella, I need to get you out of here before Tanya gets here."
"Alice, I promise I won't do anything. Well, I'll try not to." Really Edward, I am not that ruthless. I swear I won't attack unless I'm provoked. Insert smile here.
It is clear that Edward does not find my comment at all amusing when he grabs my arm and starts walking toward the back door. "What the hell?"
"It's not you Bella. It's Tanya; she's decided to bring a date."
"And?"
"He's human." Edward spat.
Eleazar's head snapped up. He and Edward looked at each other, Edward nodded and then Eleazar was out the door in a flash.
Fuck my luck. "We have to go." The words came from my lips, but I stand frozen. Something is wrong with me. A part of me wants to stay. I can remember the smell and the taste of human blood. It rules me in this moment. The simple thought makes my throat burn with a passion. My hands are fists. My feet stay planted to the floor. Jasper finally rose from the couch looking positively cranky.
"Get her out of hear. She is going to send me over the edge." Jasper clenched his jaw. "Bella, you need to stop focusing on it. Think about something else."
Dry scorching heat, flames, fire. Burn. Burn. Burn. My throat is fucking burning and the said human isn't even here yet.
Oh god, Edward! I need to get the fuck out of here.
He tugs on my arm and gets inpatient when I don't move. He picks me up and runs out the door. First a fashion intervention and now a human intervention. Edward is certainly earning his help-a-junkie merit badge today.
When we finally stopped, I realized that Alice had come with us.
"That bitch!" Alice yelled. "What the hell was she thinking?"
I pitied Edward for the thoughts he was about to hear coming from my mind. What the fuck kind of person is she? She is supposed to be their family, their friend? Somehow, I don't think she gives two shits about bringing a scrumptious mortal to his death. Some vegetarian she is... Tanya officially has my seal of disapproval. As if her blatant flirting with Edward isn't enough, now I reek of hate and vengeful urges towards her. She will not escape my manipulation. She has messed with the wrong newbie.
"Stop. Think about something else." Edward was scowling. Then he started to pace.
Daises. Rainbows. Snow angels. Happy thoughts. Sunflowers. Happy thoughts. Beating Tanya to a pulp. Ah, that is a happy thought too.
Edward pinched the bridge of his nose.
"We should be able to head back in about ten minutes. Eleazar intercepted her a few miles from the house. We are in the clear." Alice patted me on the back. "I am so sorry Bella. I don't know what would have possessed her to do such a thing."
Back to the house we ran, exactly ten minutes later. Our family is in the great room, everyone looking tense and Carlisle was pacing with his phone to his ear.
"Put her on." He looked at me and then ran to the bat cave. I could still hear him talking and I couldn't help but listen.
"What the fuck were you thinking? How dare you bring a human into my home, knowing full well there is a newborn among us? She could have killed him easily."
Edward wrapped his arms around me from behind and started kissing my ear. I shooed him away and listened intently.
"I think it is about time that you let it go. He has made his choice."
"It won't work. Edward is not one for your games. If he wanted you, he would have taken advantage of your non-stop invitations. Get over your self." Go Carlisle! Go Carlisle!
Carlisle laughed and I was cursing the fact that I couldn't hear her side of the conversation. "No one doubts your area of expertise you damned succubus and I would stop right there if I were you or I will allow Esme and Bella to rip you apart and burn the pieces."
I heard his phone close and I looked at Esme. She didn't even try to keep a calm demeanor.
"I will allow Esme and Bella to rip you apart and burn the pieces."
Oh, I get it. That crazy bitch propositioned Carlisle and Esme is not taking this lightly. She stormed from the room, slamming the door with enough force to send it flying off the hinges.
Rosalie stood. "Has anyone seen Emmett?"
Emmett is going to get it. It has been four hours and he has yet to show his face and apparently he is not answering his cell, not even for Rosalie. With each passing minute, Rosalie's attitude is becoming nastier and nastier. The emo sponge that is Jasper, latched on to Rose's sparkling mood. Alice tried to make him feel better by declaring an impromptu shopping trip, which only made him revert back to his cocoon like state on the couch.
I may have suggested they all go elsewhere.
"Suggested?" Edward says with a laugh.
OK, so I made everyone go away. You are glad I did it; so shut up with your semantics!
The loud crunching noises coming from the garage are becoming more frequent. I fear for Emmett's Jeep.
His Jeep... Hmmm... My vampire mind just processed the possibilities. Upon stomping out, Rose announced that no one is allowed in the garage right now, but with her level of animosity toward her assface husband; this may be the perfect opportunity to harness her help with Project Emma. She undoubtedly has the skills necessary to make some minor modifications to his testosterone mobile.
"Brilliant idea. I would be willing to bet that if you ask her nicely, she just might offer her assistance. She is absolutely livid that he is not answering her calls." Edward stopped and looked down at me. "Project Emma?"
I thought for a moment about what I could do, to totally torture Emmett, starting with his new nickname, Emma. I let the many ideas float around in my head hoping that maybe Edward could help me out with this. What say the peanut gallery? Any thoughts Edward?
"He will fucking hate it. It is perfect, but you better get started. Alice saw that he would be getting home approximately ten hours from now. You'll be cutting it close." He looked down at me. "I think I'll go round up the video camera."
I fly down to the garage and peek my head in the door long enough to narrowly avoid the wrench that Rose just chucked in my direction.
"Get out!"
I opened the door another inch and heard Rose growl. "What the fuck do you want?"
I smile. "I have a proposition for you."
