Cullen Truth or Dare

Epilogue

From last time: "All I can say is might want to prepare yourselves for the worse." Alice answered shivering a bit. I knew then that when a vampire shivered it was bad especially if that vampire was Alice Cullen.

"Just take it easy and rest for the next two weeks," Carlisle said smiling at the patient. He turned to the patient's mother, "Have Brayden take this for his cough and fever, and don't forget to push the liquids." He paused as he felt his phone vibrate angrily in his pocket. "I'll have Ms. Bielson come in here and release you." He turned to leave wondering why one of the kids would be calling at this time of night.

"Thank you, Dr. Cullen," The mother answered watching as Carlisle left through the door in a hurry.

Carlisle turned a couple of times making his way to his office and shutting the door. "Hello, Carlisle Cullen speaking." He answered not recognizing the number.

"Hey dad um, I have, um a problem and need your help." Emmett's voice came back through.

"Emmett what did you do now?" Carlisle asked letting a little of his annoyance come through. Of all of his adopted kids, Emmett seemed the one most prone to trouble.

"I need you to come to the police station in Port Angeles please and get me out," Emmett stated.

Carlisle sighed reigning in his temper the best he could, "Emmett why didn't you call your brothers to come to get you?" He asked fearing the answer.

"They were with me and the police won't release me to them. It's really nothing bad but they said I had to have you or um mom come get me." Emmett replied nervously.

Carlisle sighed, "Alright I'll be there in a couple of hours to get you but we're having a major discussion on the way back Emmett as to why you're in jail and what you boys were doing."

"Yeah might want to include the girls in on this one dad. All three of them were there too." Emmett added hanging up before Carlisle could respond.

Carlisle ended the call and called Esme's cell, "Hi honey what's wrong?" Esme asked knowing that Carlisle only called her on his way home not in the middle of his shift when he was usually busiest.

"I need to stop by and pick you up on my way to Port Angeles to get Emmett out of jail. Could you please make sure that everyone's home so we can talk when we get back?" Carlisle answered not really greeting his wife finding the whole situation with the kids beginning to grind on his normally easy-going and gentle nature.

"Sure I'll meet you at the end of the road so you don't have to go to the house. How much money should I bring with me?" Esme asked her voice seeming to find its way through Carlisle's frayed temper.

"Same as the last time since I'm not sure what damage got done this time. I love you, Esme." Carlisle replied.

"I love you too Carlisle be careful and I'll see you in a few minutes," Esme answered ending the call and heading back toward the house.

She entered and stopped listening to the talk in the family room, "I hope for Emmett's sake that Carlisle's in a good mood." She heard Jasper say to someone.

"Okay, what's the worse that's happened before guys?" Bella asked. Esme knew she was talking to Alice and Edward.

"The worse that can happen is a meeting for the family," Esme said coming into the room actually making Bella yelp in surprise.

"Hi mom, take it that Emmett called?" Edward said calmly knowing that he could her thoughts plainly.

'Yes and he's mad at you kids. I hope for all your sakes that this doesn't have anything to do with that blasted club and the whole truth or dare game again otherwise it's not going to be pretty when he gets home.' She thought answering out loud, "Yes he did and he said no one's to leave since we're meeting once he and I get back from getting your brother out of jail."

Everyone ducked their heads and got quiet as Esme left to know that in a few hours they were all in deep trouble except Bella who had a look of shock about the events about to happen.

"But it wasn't even my idea," Emmett whined as he followed Carlisle and Esme into the house two hours later.

"I thought I made it explicit that I did not want you to go to that club since the last time you kids were there someone almost burned that club down," Carlisle said his voice strained.

Esme touched his arm as they came to a stop and turned looking at the others, "Dining room now everyone." Esme answered as Carlisle pinched the bridge of his nose in frustration.

Everyone got up and followed Esme and Carlisle into the dining room taking their places around the table. Even Nessie and Jake took their usual places. "Now then you all know why I called you in here," Carlisle stated staring around the table.

"Um grandpa they might but Jake and I have no clue what's going on?" Nessie answered looking from her mother and father to her Uncle Emmett who had his head ducked.

Carlisle gave his granddaughter a slight smile and turned toward the kids, "I want to know why you kids were at that club and what's going on?" His voice harbored a hard edge to it.

Alice cleared her throat something she wasn't normally known for and began to tell how Bella had wanted to play Cullen truth or dare and how at the end a dare from Edward to Emmett ended them where they were, "Really Carlisle we didn't think anything would happen. Emmett was doing fine till that drunk guy fell into the table Emmett was on."

Carlisle sighed reigning in his temper, "As mad as I am at you kids I will go a little easier on you this time since Bella didn't know what would happen. You are all grounded to the house except when we all go hunting. That means no taking off to go to the mall Alice and Rose and no running amuck in your jeep Emmett. Bella you and Edward will stay at the house for the month. The only time you guys are allowed out is to go to school in which Esme, Jake, Nessie, or I will drive you and pick you up. I am taking all keys to any vehicle and will lock the doors to the garage. I expect you kids to adhere to these conditions is that clear."

"I have to say Carlisle and I are disappointed in you kids. Now then all keys on the table please." Esme added as everyone produced the keys to the vehicles.

"I will never again ask to play this game with you guys," Bella answered shaking her head at the predicament they were now all in. "Cullen Truth or Dare is too dangerous to my sanity," Everyone chuckled knowing that sometime in the future they would again play.
