Chapter 5 – I'm Only Me When I'm With You

A/N : I'M SO SORRY! My mom banned me from using my laptop and the family computer. I had nothing to use. I felt so useless. I hope you forgive me! Pure fluff here. ;)

Ohyeah, before I forget, Twilight is not mine. I wish it would be, but NO. :|

"WELCOME TO THE CLUB!"

I stood there, stunned at the greeting. I could see four people there, all have grins in their faces after they shouted their greeting. Welcome to the club? I didn't really get that. Is Bella's surprise for me a subscription to a club?

But this doesn't look like a club. I mean, there are only 4 people inside the penthouse. There was a pixie like girl jumping up and down. She was tiny, but she looked like she was a ball of energy. She was grinning like a Cheshire cat, or me finding a decent food from the dumpster. Your pick. Then, there was a blonde male who had shaggy hair that reached down to his chin. He looked tall, but quite shorter than me by a few inches. He had a hand on the pixie like girl's shoulder, as if he was calming her down. Then a blonde woman was sitting on a white couch, her legs crossed. She didn't look as enthused as Pixie, but she was smiling quite a bit. Her long golden hair flowed to the middle of her torso, the ends are curled. It looked quite shiny, if you ask me. Lastly, a huge male was standing up beside the blonde girl, looking almost as thrilled as Pixie. He was beefy, and looked intimidating, if only he wasn't smiling and his dimples weren't showing. Right now, he just looked like a giant teddy bear.

Then, I realized who they were. They weren't a club. They were a group. They were the World's Elite Teens. Otherwise known as WET. They were all the children of the top 5 richest people of the world. Bella's father, Charlie Swan, is the wealthiest man ever since their group of companies had started last 2001. They were once just a local company, but Charlie, married Renee Carnegie, the daughter Andrew Carnegie which was the Carnegie Steel Company. When Charlie and Renee had married, the companies that both sides of the family owned, had merged. They worked their way up, getting richer, until they were able to buy other companies. But tragically, Renee Carnegie-Swan had been murdered, and up until now, no one knows who, or why the person had murdered her.

Second wealthiest persons in the world is Rosalie Hale's parents, Emma and Adrian Hale. They were Real Estate dealers. Both of them came from the blood line of previous successful Real Estate dealers. They created mansions and houses on different parts of a specific area, which has a perfect view of a tourist spot, or whatever majestic image there is to attract customers. Their houses sells a lot, for a whole lot of money. They create new houses every 6 months to 2 years, but they also avoid cutting down trees. All they do is find a perfect, unused spot and they create their houses there. They are also activist to Save The World.

Third wealthiest person in the world is Alice Brandon's mother, Amelia Wilson-Brandon. Amelia was a big fan of clothing even when she was only a mere child. Her love of clothing had made her create new fashion trends. She sew her clothing plans, and ended up being discovered by her late husband, George Brandon. George Brandon was the CEO of a modeling agency. When he saw Amelia, he thought she was wearing a magnificent type of clothing and he had wondered why he hadn't seen that type of clothing before. Amelia introduced her clothings to him, and her clothings were reproduced, creating a fashion company. They married each other, and their companies had been in control of both. But, on the late part of 2009, George Brandon had died out of cancer.

Fourth wealthiest persons in the world is Emmett McCarty's parents, who were video game creators and producers of different types of technology. Believe it or not, Emmett's mother, Emily Jones-McCarty was an avid fan of video games. She liked playing video games and her interest with it had carried on up until her adulthood. She had thought of different situations, which ended up her, being able to create new games. She was extremely talented with computers as well. She knew all of those things for her to be able to create video games. Then, Garrett McCarty, had a father as an engineer. His father would teach him about the wires, the chips inside some gadgets and he taught him how to fix things. He was thoroughly interested on that stuff, and took Robotics as an extra curricular activity since the third grade. He was doing a robotics competition when he was in college, on his way to be a technologist, when he met Emily. They had a good relationship, and became husband and wife. They created a company through Garrett's prize money from all of the robotics competitions he joined and became a champion in.

Lastly, the fifth wealthiest people in the world are The Cullens. Carlisle Cullen is in the medical field. He was a surgeon, the best one there is. He owned large hospitals around the United States. Esme Cullen, his wife, owns an interior designing company. They both have different interests, and both of them are successful in their own fields. Dr. Cullen had a partnership going on with Bella's companies, to make his hospitals to become world known. They have no children that's known of and that's the reason why there are only five in WET. Tied to this place is Jasper Whitlock's father, Lance Whitlock. He owns a cellphone company, and an oil drilling company. Jasper was born out of wedlock and the mother, which is Maria Klein which is dead. She hanged herself in her apartment, after giving Lance's wish to her. Let Jasper live.

How do I know this stuff? You'd just have to wait and see.

"Haloooo, Eduardo, are yooo darr?" I heard a deep voice say. I snapped out of it and saw that a hand was waving across my face. I gingerly pushed his hand away, letting him know I was okay.

"How did you know my name? I mean, it's not Eduardo, it's Edward. But still. How did you know?" I asked him.

"Oh! While you were staring at a blank space, Bella introduced you to us!" A tinkling voice said. I looked at the person who owned this voice. Just as I suspected, it was Alice. Bella motioned for all of us to take a seat, but I shook my head. The others took a seat and I pointed towards the groceries. She looked surprised, her eyes widening. She looked liked a kid who was caught getting some candy. I laughed at her, and walked towards them. I picked up the plastics containing the things we bought and brought it to what seems to be her kitchen. I took out all of our stuff and put all of the groceries in their respective places.

"I completely forgot about these things! Good thing you remembered!" She laughed. I rolled my eyes playfully and stacked the cans we bought. I took out the pop cans and opened the fridge, but Bella stopped me.

"Just leave it there. We'd be taking that in the living room." She said and I shrugged. I left it on the counter top and started putting away the other things. She pulled out her apron, and I laughed. In the front, it says, "Kiss the Cooking Mama." She glared at me playfully and smacked my arm using a spatula.

"No, laugh-y about the Cooking Mama. Only kiss-y. But you, only friend. So, scrrram!" She said with an accent that I don't even know. I laughed and ran out of the room. Bella is such a goof. She's so funny and beautiful and kind. Any guy would be lucky to have a girl like her. She made me feel all tingly inside. God, I sound like a girl.

Everyone was there, just looking at me. I immediately looked down and walked to the nearest chair that was there.

"So.." I heard Alice say. I gulped. I don't think I'm ready to face the interrogations of the mighty Alice. She's scary.

APOV

When I saw Edward, I felt something build up inside me. Like, I knew him, but I didn't. There was something familiar about him. Something that reminds me of someone, but I just can't put it.

"So.." I said, trailing off. Edward was looking down, obviously embarrassed because we were all looking at him.

"Why don't we introduce ourselves? I'm sure Edward would like to know who we are." My Jazzy said. I agreed with him. I volunteered to be first to tell my story.

"I'm Mary Alice Brandon, and I'm 24 years old. I like shopping and designing clothes!" I said cheerfully. Rosalie scoffed.

"Like? More like obsessed with shopping."

"Hey! I'm not obsessed with it! I'm-" Rosalie cut me off by starting to introduce herself. I glared at her. Big, gorgeous meanie.

"Rosalie Hale. I like shopping, and I like fixing up cars. I'm currently a model of Alice's clothing line."

"Emmett McCarty. My Rosie's fiancé. My familia owns a video game company and appliances company. We are Bella's technology supplier. I like Wrestling and paying video games and eating and laughing at Bells when she trips, which is rare now because of Alice and hugging and tacos and nachos and teddy bears and-"

"Shut up, Emmett. I'm Jasper Whitlock, Alice's fiancé. I like motorbikes and I have this weird thing because I could feel someone else's feelings." My Jazzy said. We waited for Edward to say something, but once again, he was staring blankly at a random space between Emmett and Jasper.

"He's Edward Masen. He was born on June 20, 1984. He likes to play the piano and he had an interesting life. He's proud of who he is, and no one could change that." I heard Bella say as she was coming out of the kitchen, holding a tray of cupcakes. She gave each of us one except Edward and I saw her get two. I was about to complain when I saw her smash the cupcake on Edward's mouth. Edward immediately snapped out of his trance and looked surprised. Bella laughed at him.

"That's what you get when you're not listening!" She said and giggled. Edward stood up and Bella ran. Edward ran behind her and I heard a loud thud. We all rushed towards the sound and saw that Bella was giggling like there's no tomorrow, on top of Edward. Edward was just laughing his ass off.

They looked good together. But, Bella said they're only friends. Plus, I don't know anything about Edward. At least I think.

Flashback

"Hey, Eddie!" I heard my mini-self yell. A boy rushed beside me, looking panicked.

"What is it, Ali? Are you hurt?" I heard the boy, 'Eddie' say. I shook my head and skipped merrily.

"Alice. Don't call me again if you don't need anything. I'm playing!" I heard him groan. I just laughed and climbed up the swings. I put my little leg up, and held onto the chains. I tried to lift myself up, but ended up falling. My butt hurts, and I started to cry.

"EDDIE, EDDIE, EDDIE!" I heard myself wailed. 'Eddie' rushed beside me and knelt down.

"You could've called me, Ali." He said and lifted me up.

"But, I thought you wouldn't come because I called you first, but I had nothing to say."

"Ali, I'll always be there. If I remember it right, I heard you mumble in your sleep that 'Edward Cullen is the best cousin ever.'" I smacked his arm and we both laughed.

End of Flashback

I felt someone shake me. I saw that it was Jasper. I hugged him and sobbed quietly. He knew instantly. There were times that a memory of my lost cousin would trigger in my brain, either because there was something that reminds me of him, or someone brought up that topic. Now, I don't know what triggered it. No one brought up the topic, and nothing reminded me of him.

Or, is there?

EPOV

I stuck my tongue out at Bella. She just rolled her eyes and got the bag containing the random things we bought. Scarves, gloves, game boards, bars of soap and some others that I forgot about. She tossed it in the middle of the room. Everyone looked at her questioningly.

"We start this by playing Alice's favourite game." Alice grinned. She started to get up, when Bella hurried to say something else.

"Except Bella Barbie." Alice frowned and sat back down.

"Truth or Dare." Everyone cheered, excluding me. I don't know how to react. I mean, what if they ask me some personal things that might get me in trouble? What if they knew who I really was?

"Everyone sit down and form a circle!" Bella said and we all obeyed. I sat in between of Bella and Emmett, Rosalie sat between Emmett and Jasper, Alice sat between Jasper and Bella.

"Who goes first?" I heard Alice say.

"I will!" Emmett's booming voice said. He raised his hand like a kindergarten student who wanted to have candy. All of them nodded in agreement.

"So, Alicia Brandona, Trrrruth orrr Darrrre?" He said, doing the accent Bella just did a while ago.

"Darrrre, me señor." She said, imitating the accent.

"Alice, I dare you to bite the overgrown nails on Jasper's feet." He said. All of us widened our eyes. That was truly disgusting.

"NOOOOO. That's disgusting. You know I love you Jazz, but I could never do that. Your feet, UGH! I can't. Is there a veto here? I could really use it right now. Pleaaase?" She rambled, begging Bella in the end. Alice's eyes widened, her lips slipped into a pout. Her lower lips was trembling, and her eyes were tearing up. Bella tried avoiding the look Alice gave her, but she just kept glancing back, as if there was a string pulling her face towards the direction of Alice's. Finally, she sighed and nodded.

"Yay! Vetoooo, baby!" She said joyously. She pumped her fist up, as if she'd won the lottery. The others rolled their eyes simultaneously.

"Rosalie, Truth or Dare?" Alice said quite menacingly. The others laughed, as if there was a said joke. Am I missing something? Bella decided to speak up.

"Last time we did a truth or dare, Rosalie dared Alice to burn all of her designer clothes. Alice had no vetoes by that time, because she was previously dared by Emmett to burn all of her sketches. So, Alice had no way out. She burned her clothes, and promised Rosalie to have her revenge." I laughed. Alice glared at me before staring at Rosalie with mischief behind her blue eyes.

Rosalie swallowed before stuttering out her answer.

"T-truth."

"Well, Rosalie, aren't we just a little chicken today?" Alice taunted. Behind her pixie form, she was a little devil.

"Uh, could you carry on with the question, Mary Alice?" Rosalie snapped. Alice's nostrils flared, the flame in her eyes, getting bigger.

"Hale, could you describe what happened to your date with Michael Newton? The date that you never told a soul about." She said evilly. Rosalie's face drained of color. She became pale. Paler than Bella, which is saying something. She started to hyperventilate. Her eyes glazed, as if she was remembering something. Emmett panicked and started rubbing her shoulders. Alice smiled an evil smile, while Bella just sat back, relaxing as if nothing was happening.

"C'mon Rosie, you know you could do it." Alice said, encouraging her, but there was a sadistic undertone to it.

"M-Mike Newton, the son of Mr. John Newton, a wealthy car dealer. I thought that if me and his son dated, they would let me see the cars they were redesigning. So, I went on a date with him. Mike treated me like a real gentleman, but be-because I was nervous, I dropped the fork I was holding. I bent down to pick it, but my shoulder accidentally tipped the bowl of soup and it fell on me. I rushed to get a napkin that I didn't notice that the tablecloth had tied a knot on near my leg. Of course, I stood up because the tissue holder was on Mike's side, and all of the plates and glasses fell down on me." Rosalie said, with her head down. We all held in our laughters, wanting Rosalie to go on.

"And I was wearing a fucking white dress! I looked at Mike and saw that he was grimacing. He asked for the bill, and the waitress, Jessica, laughed loud when she saw me, causing everyone else to look. They saw me and stifled their giggles. I excused myself so I could go to the restroom and when I came back, Mike was nowhere to be seen. I looked out of the restaurant and saw that he was kissing Jessica, our waitress on the hood of his car. I made my way towards them, with the last shred of my dignity to ask for a ride, but when I was just around 6 feet away from him, he saw me and looked alarmed. He told something to Jessica and fumbled through his keys. He got inside and Jessica did too. He immediately started the engine and drove off, leaving me there to walk home, drenched with the food we ordered." She said and hid her face with her hands. All of our faces were red. In about five seconds, all of us were rolling on the floor, laughing our ass off. Rosalie just sunk down the chair she was sitting on.

It took us quite some time before we regained our composure and we all crawled back to our own seats.

"Oh My God! So that's why you never came to our scheduled sleepover at that time!" Bella laughed out.

"You even told us through the phone that you brought Mike home and did it!" Alice exclaimed. That send all of us into another round of laughter. Rosalie composed herself and glared at all of us.

"Continue the game. Emmett, Truth or Dare?" Rosalie asked Emmett. I think she wanted to get revenge on her fiancé for laughing at her like that.

"I dare you to..streak naked towards Wal-Mart and buy me tampons while screaming 'Grease up my trunk, I'll put it inside your junk!" She said cruelly.

"But, Rosie! Do you want others to see my junk that only you could see? Do you want others to see what you see in our private time? Do you want others to feel me up?" He said, trying to worm his way out of the dare, but Rosalie, just shook her head, saying that he deserved it. Emmett resigned and started stripping. I started to look down, since this is like a minor porn thing. I looked around and saw that everyone was looking at him. Even Bella. She met my gaze and spoke.

"Edward, just look. We already have seen Emmett naked numerous times. You're hanging out with us, now, so lift your face and look." Bella said calmly. I just looked at them in horror, before looking up. Emmett was completely naked, his..length, was up, and it was quite humongous. I grimaced, since this is the first time ever to look at another man, naked.

"Wow, Edward. You look at me like I'm some gay who asked you to be my boy-toy." Emmett said and my eyes widened and I felt some heat rise up to my cheeks. Everyone laughed and he said his parting words.

"Farewell, mi amigos, mi amigas. I shall go and buy her some tampons!" He said and rushed out of the room, naked. Bella ran into her room and came back with a video camera in hand.

"Blackmail." She said and started to run out of the room. We followed her and walked into one elevator which just recently opened its doors. We ran in and Bella told the elevator guy to press 'L'. We ran out when we reached the lobby, and saw that Emmett was just going out of the building. The guards started to walk towards him, but Bella held up her hand, which the guards saw, and started to back away. I am still amazed how much power Bella has.

We ran out the door and Bella opened her video cam and started recording. Emmett was running in the middle of the road, screaming what Rose made him scream.

"GREASE UP MY TRUNK, I'LL PUT IT INSIDE YOUR JUNK!" Emmett screamed and received a lot of cat calls and wolf whistles. He kept on repeating it and we were just laughing all the way there. A lot of people looked at him, like he was a crazy man running naked, and some girls giggled at him. Disgusting or disgusting?

We reached Wal-Mart and were now tired after all that running. We saw Emmett going in the doors of Wal-Mart, when he was stopped by a police officer.

"SHIT!" The others said simultaneously. They looked panicked and started to fidget. The police officer cuffed Emmett and started to tow him to his car. Emmett was screaming for help and Bella shut off the video cam.

"Shit, Shit, double shit. Triple shit, Mega fuck." Alice cussed as Emmett was taken by the police officer. We hailed a cab and told him to go to the nearest NYPD station. Bella bribed him to go faster and she'll pay him triple with a hundred tip. Of course, who would pass up that opportunity? He didn't.

He zoomed through the traffic, running through red lights and getting screamed at by old senior citizens. We reached to the NYPD station and Bella threw the cab driver a five hundred. What a huge amount of money, considering what I am now. We inquired in the front desk about Emmett.

"Hi, um, Mr. Officer. But have you caught a guy who was streaking?" Bella asked in a sweet voice. The deputy was dazed by her sweet tune.

"Uh, yeah. Emmett McCarty charged of gross misdemeanor indecent exposure." He said and coughed. Some spit flew towards Alice and Bella. Their face reddened and looked like they were disgusted.

"Where is he? We're here to bail him." She said. The deputy started getting files and writing on some papers. She told Bella to sign on the lines there, and I saw a picture peeking out. Emmett's Mug Shots. I leaned towards Jasper and whispered about the mug shots. His eyes went into a mischief mode and her lips curved into an evil smile. He interrupted Bella and the deputy.

"Sir, could I have Emmett's mug shots? I would pay for it, if you like." He offered, using his Southern drawl that he kept in control when talking to us. Except when he's talking to Alice. They said that his accent could make you, a) Feel like a gay person if you're a guy, and b) become putty in his hands if you're a girl. So, they made him control that. The deputy agreed and Jasper gave him around a thousand dollars. The guy looked shocked at the amount of money he had. I'm pretty sure that his daily salary couldn't match up to that. He handed Jasper the mug shots and Jasper shot us a triumphant grin and Bella and the deputy resumed their discussion.

"Wonder if they got Emmett dressed in those striped jail clothes or the orange ones.." I said, trailing off. Alice and Rosalie scrunched their nose in disgust. Jasper just laughed out loud.

"Ugh. They are so ugly. The orange ones are too bright and they look so ugly. The striped ones is so stereotype and plus, what the heck is up the sailor hat?" Alice critiqued the clothes. Rosalie just nodded in agreement.

"But, which ones are you hoping for that he would wear?" I asked.

"NOTHING! I'd rather have him wear nothing than be seen with a fiancé that wears ugly clothing!" Rosalie exclaimed. Girls and their clothing. Except Bella, though.

Bella pulled out her purse and got out wads of cash. How she managed to fit it there, I will never know. The deputy looked surprised again. I walked beside Bella and smiled at her. I heard the deputy mutter, "Rich kids and unlimited amount of money in their purses." I chuckled a bit, and Bella looked at me questioningly.

"So, I guess he's done. Just go to the next hallway and go to the-" He was interrupted by a loud screech. He ran towards the sound and we followed. We saw Emmett, naked and some guys swarming him. Gays.

"IF YOU COME NEAR ME, I SWEAR TO GOD, I'D RIP YOUR BUTT HOLES OPEN AND LET IT BLEED UNTIL YOU HAVE NO BLOOD LEFT TO SHED!" He screamed towards them. The gay guys didn't look scared. Quite opposite. A tent suddenly pitched from their..striped uniforms.

"Emmett Cullen, you're released now. C'mon." The deputy chuckled and put the key in the padlock. He twisted it and the padlock unlocked. He took it out and Emmett burst out of the jail and pushed the jail door closed. He grabbed the padlock from the deputy and locked it. "Thank God," he muttered.

We thanked the deputy and was walking out of the building when he decided to scream something at us. "GIVE HIM CLOTHES OR ELSE HE'LL BE IN JAIL AGAIN!"

"Oh!" We all said and started to look for clothes. There weren't any, considering that this NYPD station. We thought that we'd just give him some jeans, and he'd be good. I volunteered, since I was wearing boxers inside this pants. It was quite baggy, since the manager in Wal-Mart gave me jeans 2 sizes bigger. I took it off and handed it to Emmett. He happily agreed.

When we got out, we hailed another cab, and Bella instructed him to go to the condos.

"Oh, guys, don't forget, we'll play Never Have I Ever this night."

Oh, shit.

I'm only up when you're not down.
Don't wanna fly if you're still on the ground.
It's like no matter what I do.
Well you drive me crazy half the time;
the other half I'm only trying to let you know that what I feel is true.
And I'm only me when I'm with you.
