This is a declaimer: I do not own the twilight character, just the story. And the character personalities are a little altered also. And this is a sequel to "What do you think of me" so you might want to read that story first (find it on my profile).
Chapter 1
Oh man! Please don't tell me that's who I think it is.
Just recently, I had been deprived of my Jelly status a few days ago (I was no longer a Jellyfish). So how did this happen? Well, it started with a ring and ended… perfectly, if I do say so myself. Even though I've been traumatized into a lioness creature, I'm still a Jelly at heart. I still have my "big guns" and "stinger." Believe me, I'm no common lion. Well, you probably can guess who killed the Jelly status for me, no other than Edward Cullen, but who's complaining, right? Not me.
"Where's my sister!" I heard Alice shouting and Edward chuckled, getting out the car.
"What do you think she wants?" I whispered to Edward.
"Oh nothing… she probably just wants to know if you're having her niece or nephew," Edward informed me and I sighed. "Don't worry, love, it's not like we're having a baby for real. Then Alice would really have somethin' to talk about."
"I guess you're right. But I don't think I'm ready."
"I'll make sure she doesn't go to hard on you with the questions."
"Thanks."
Edward and I walked cautiously to the front door of the Cullen's place coming back from our honeymoon. Edward had parked his car in the garage, so we had to walk around in the dirt and all the other filthiness the ground harbored. And before we even got home, Edward had begged me to let him carry me to the front door. It took a lot for me to agree, but how could I deny his sexy voice. Damn, that Edward. "Please don't drop me," I cried and Edward snorted.
"I won't drop you," he assured me. I knew he wouldn't drop me. The complaining just came naturally, I guess.
"We're home!" Edward announced and our family came rushing over to us, Alice as the lead. Charlie was here, along with Renee. Esme and Carlisle. Even Jake the mechanic was here. But he wasn't disappointed that I was married now, he was actually happy for me.
"I'm so glad you guys are back. We've missed you both," Esme said. We were in a big group hug and I could barely breathe with all of the people around me.
"Okay, okay… you guys are squishing… me," I said and everyone laughed.
"Sorry, Bella," Alice said not letting go of me, "but I've missed you too much." She still was hugging me.
"I've missed you too Alice," I said, trying to escape her grip. She let go now.
"So…? Do I have a niece or what?" Alice asked, eagerly.
"Sorry, but your niece is still some where far off in the distant future," I told her and she frowned.
"What did you two do on the honeymoon? Stompin' daisies?"
"Sorry Alice, I guess we were just too protected," I joked, but Alice didn't find that funny at all.
"My niece better not be to far off in the future… or I'll just have to get her myself."
I laughed. "And how are you going to do that?"
"It's a secret I keep from my SISTER in law."
"Well I'm not sure I like my SISTER in law keeping secrets from me." Alice laughed. "Alright, until Christmas… of next year," I promised her.
"Next Christmas? That's too long—"
"But Alice, we can't raise a child while we're so busy this year."
"I'll raise it," Alice volunteered, but I knew she was kidding. Edward rolled his eyes like she was out of her mind.
"Alice, you want a baby, get your own. I'm sure Jasper would be more then willing to help you out," Edward said and Alice stuck her tough at him. "Just sayin'."
"Bella, how was your honeymoon?" Renee asked, walking up to me.
"It was… interesting. We went to an island Carlisle bought for his wife. I thought it was a bit strange. I mean, who buys an island as a gift?"
"I guess their just big shoppers then."
"I guess they are. It was beautiful though."
"Glad you had a nice time." Renee gave me a long, sincere hug. She eventually started crying.
"Are you okay, mom?" I asked her.
"Yes. I'm just so happy for you, sweat heart," she said, sobbing in my ear. I smiled. Life was really going well for me. Both Edward and I had our dream jobs — Edward was a professional pianist and had his own tour coming up and I worked at a publishing house as an editor. And we were moving out in a few weeks to a Villa in Forks. It wasn't cheap either to find a good home in a small town, but Edward said money wasn't a problem. I sure hope it isn't.
I remember 2 years ago when Edward played the piano for me. It was the loveliest thing I had ever heard. I asked him what it was called and he said it was dedicated to me. "Bella's lullaby." Of course I started crying after he told me, it was just so beautiful. It seemed that everything Edward did was beautiful, like a grace filled melody.
I was a little worried about Edward's tour that was coming up. He would be gone most of the time rehearsing and visitors weren't allowed during rehearsals. They company thinks it's distracting.
Now you might be thinking, I don't find any of this bad at all. And I don't either. It's just… I'll miss him a lot. That may seem pathetic, but that is my husband. You can't blame me for that.
After Edward and I got settled into the Cullen's house, he would have to go to rehearsals when he's done moving and everything. Esme wanted us to stay for a little while until we actually move into to our new mansion. I never thought I'd lived to see the day that Edward and a mansion was mine. It's just not possible, so I thought.
"All done," Edward told me when he was done unpacking.
"Man," I complained and Edward laughed.
"What's up with you?"
"Nothing…" Edward looked at me for a second. He knew something was wrong with me. "I'm fine, Edward. Really," I assured him and he ribbed his finger on his chin deep in thought.
"Nah, I don't think so. Now what's wrong with Bella now?"
"Nothings wrong with Bella. Seriously."
"Please…" he was begging now, "tell me. Please." And how could I resist that puppy face.
"Alright, I'll tell you." I sighed and said, "Well… you're going to be gone the whole afternoon."
"You mean for the rehearsals at the cinema?"
"Yeah… and… you're going to be gone and…"
"Then why won't you come with me?"
"Visitors aren't allowed, remember?"
"Visitors aren't allowed at the musicians rehearsals. This is just like… a meeting, where you meet the cast and whatever. You can come."
I smiled. "Good, because I wasn't really sure what I would do while you were gone. I guess, sit and be bored."
He smiled and kissed the top of my forehead.
After we were unpacked, it was off to the cinema for the meeting/rehearsals. The building was huge when we drove into the parking lot and it was very classy. Good think I was dressed up for the occasion. It seemed like a bunch of rich musicians played here. "Wow!" I uttered and Edward smiled.
"You like it?" he asked.
"Yeah, this place is beautiful."
"You should see the cinema."
We both got out the car and walked up the parking lot. The lobby was just as extravagant and flamboyant. I followed him through the place until we got to the stairs. "We're taking the stairs?" I questioned.
"Yeah, why not?"
"There's an elevator nearby."
"I wanted you to see something. Taking the stairs is way better."
I shrugged and he took the first step. When we were walking up the beautiful, elegant, white staircase there was an aquarium in the walls. It was STUNNING! I was truly amazed. The exquisite sea creatures floating around in the waters, but what really amazed me was what Edward had pointed at. "Look," he said. And there it was… a Jellyfish.
"It's beautiful," I whispered to myself. Practically speechless.
After we made it up the stairs, we were at the cinema and Edward was right. If I had the choice, I would live in this place. It was nothing like I'd ever seen before. Edward must have been a brilliant pianist to get accepted into this corporation. It was dark in the cinema and I saw several people on a big, vivid stage. "Edward?" I heard someone say and Edward walked to the stage holding my hand.
"Mr. Johnson, you don't mind if my wife is at attendance, right?" Edward asked and Mr. Johnson, the tall, shiny, black haired guy nodded. I couldn't see everyone on the stage until we got closer I could almost see the whole cast. "This is Isabella," Edward introduced me when we were at the stage. He shook Mr. Johnson's hand. They had a big cast; I couldn't even count the people that were there.
"Hello, Isabella. I'm Mr. Johnson, the director," he said and I shook his hand.
"Please to meet you, Mr. Johnson," I said. It was like talking to a king or something — he sure looked the part, standing like that like he owned the place… but he some how did. He looked to young to own anything if you ask me.
"Today we're all going to get to know each other," Mr. Johnson said. "This is Edward Cullen and his wife Isabella Cullen," Ah, how I LOVED when people called me Isabella "Cullen" and how I loved people called me "Mrs. Cullen" even more, "He is one of THE best pianist in the country. He won state championships numerous times and the country wide championship. It's a pleasure to have you Mr. Cullen."
"Thank you, Mr. Johnson," Edward said and they shook hands again.
"And I'd like you to meet my assistant to the corporation. She one of our important members to the cast," Mr. Johnson told him and a girl came out of the shadows. She was back stage and when she showed herself, Edward and I were totally, utterly, and completely in sheer astonishment. We both couldn't believe it. Mr. Johnson's IMPORTANT assistant was… was…
"Oh man! Please don't tell me that's who I think it is," I whispered to Edward, but he didn't hear me. He was still in shock.
"Ba- ba- ba- Bella. That's… that's—"
"This is Jessica, my assistant," Mr. Johnson said, not realizing our total shock. I suppose that was a good thing. We looked pretty stupid!
That's chapter 1, I hope you liked it. Again, this is a sequel to "What do you think of me?" so if you haven't read that, you might want to. I hope I did a good job! Please review!
