Alright, guys. This is the first thing I've ever written for the public, but I'll take any criticism you give seriously, instead of just blowing it off. Some events and facts are based on my actual life, but this is definitely not my life story, haha.
I'm thinking of putting this chapter in the middle of a story, or as the first chapter of a story. I don't know yet, but there will definitely be more chapters, and they will be longer.
Let me know what you guys think/want!

"Bella, come on, we're gonna be late!"

"I'm coming!" I answered, applying the final touches of make-up on my face. As I was running down the stairs, I saw Edward sitting on the couch, shaking his leg and biting his thumbnail, obviously nervous.
It was his younger brother's high school graduation today. His brother wasn't nervous at all, and I guess Edward felt the need to be twice as nervous as he would normally be.
He was dressed in a dark red zip-up hoodie and dark-wash jeans. I was in front of him, and he was zoning out, as if he was just staring at me. I realized that he hadn't even noticed
that I was in the same room as he was.

I stepped closer.

"Edward. Ed…ward?…Edward. EDWARD!"

His mouth fell open and he just looked up at my face, dumbfounded. "Yeah, Bella?"

"Um…Are we going…?"

"Y-Yeah. Let's go."
He was still sitting, so I crouched down in front of him. "What's wrong? Why are you so nervous? Are you afraid that Emmett might trip or mess up his speech or something?"

He sighed. "Yeah, I guess I am."

I took his hand in mine. "Edward, he's 17. He knows how to walk. He knows how to speak. I'm sure he can take care of himself. Stop worrying and enjoy this day," I said, looking up at his green eyes
with a smile and squeezing his hand.

He looked down at me with a strange glint in his eyes for two seconds before smiling. "You're right, Bells. Let's go."

He finally stood up, and we walked outside. It was a cloudy day, and I hoped it didn't rain on Emmett's graduation day. The ceremony was going to be outside.

We got in the car, and as Edward began driving, I realized that he was driving slower than usual. He had specifically bought this Audi TT, so that he could speed.
What a reason to get a car! I must admit that his car was beyond nice, but sometimes I got annoyed when he would ramble on about it.

**We were laying down side by side in my bed one day, while he went on and on about his Audi.
Seeing the boredom on my face, he turned on his side, hoisted himself up on his elbow and said, "Bellaaa, don't be jealous. You know I love you more."
Was he serious right now? "Get real, Eduardo. I'm not jealous of a car."
He then started poking at my hips and ribs, knowing how ticklish I was. "Don't call me that!" He said, jokingly.**

He loved speeding, and although it scared me, he almost never slowed down, no matter how much I'd beg him to. He said he loved the adrenaline rush he got, and called it "fun".
I let go of my thoughts for a minute when I heard him clear his throat. I almost regretted asking him, but I asked without thinking, and it was too late.

"Why are you driving so slowly?"

He raised an eyebrow, looked at me, and smirked.

Oops. "Edward, no! I was just wondering why – " My words got cut off as he pressed his foot on the accelerator and sped off. *You had to ask, Bella.*

The clouds were parting and the sun was finally starting to show. Edward put on his sunglasses, and I remembered that I had put mine in his glove compartment yesterday.
When I opened the glove compartment to get them, I jumped and froze at Edward's voice. "No! You can't look in there!" He closed the glove compartment before I could get my sunglasses.

"I just wanted my sunglasses…" I said in a small voice.

He sighed. "Sorry, Bells. I didn't mean to snap. Here, you can wear mine."

He handed me his glasses, and I reluctantly took them and put them on. "Why can't I look in there?"

"You just can't."

"But –"

"Bella," He said in a stern voice.

"Fine," I said sadly.

I knew not to ask anymore, so I just turned my head and looked out the window. I watched children playing in their front yard, and it reminded me of my childhood with Edward.
I kept quiet. I was hurt, and I didn't care if he knew. It might seem as if I'm making a big deal out of nothing, but Edward and I never hid anything from each other.
There were times where we even shared too much information, telling our "private time" moments to each other, making each other cringe. I don't know what he could be
hiding from me, and it just added on top of the list of things he was doing that were unusual lately.

"Bella."

I didn't respond in any way.

He tried again, a little louder. "Bella, just look at me for a second."

I still sat there looking out the window.

I saw his arm extending toward me, and I felt his fingers under my chin, turning my head toward him.

"What, Edward?" I said in a monotone. He was facing the road, but his fingers were still under my chin.

"Are you mad?"

"Yes."

"Why? I'm sorry if I hurt you, but don't I have the right to keep some things private?"

"You do. I just didn't know we were hiding things from each other in our cars now."

He sighed heavily. "We're not. I'll show you what it is another time, okay?"

"Sure. Can we just forget about it?" I didn't want to have this conversation anymore. He looked hurt as well, and it killed me to see his face in pain.

We pulled up to the high school, and after Edward parked, he turned to me, his eyebrows pulled together, his face still sad. "You know I love you, right, Bella?"

"I know, Edward. And I love you."

His face lightened up a bit, and we hugged for a minute, before breaking apart and getting out of the car.

Emmett immediately ran up to us in his gown, with his graduation cap in his hand. "Bro! I'm finally graduating!!"

I had to laugh as he jumped on Edward and knocked the wind out of him. However, Edward being Edward, he didn't complain, and just laughed as he patted Emmett's back.

Let me know what you think!

Thanks!
