AN: As you can see this is my first story that I decided to publish...so I'm going to apologize to you in advance. This idea just wouldn't leave my thoughts so I sat down and started writing without the intention to actually post it but, well...I just did, so... all you can do isbite me ;)
The only thing that I own here it the plot...and some of the characters, but that's to come.
Enjoy, I guess...
Prelude
Edward's POV:
"Eddie, my boy!"
"Emmett?"
"Who else could it be?! Did you expect somebody to call you, really?" Yep, definitely Emmett.
"No, what do you want?"
"It's lovely to hear your voice too, brother."
"Could you get to the point, I'm kinda busy here."
"You mean you're sitting at your office…"
"How did you know that?! Are you at the club?!" I said interrupting him.
"No, you asshole. I called the club, not your cell phone, not that you even noticed." Oh…that explains it.
"So as I was saying before I was rudely interrupted, you're sitting at your office, pretending to do some paper work but instead staring at other people having fun and probably looking for this girl you couldn't shut up about a couple of days ago…that definitely sounds very entertaining."
"Could you explain to me why I'm still not hanging up on you?! Cause I don't understand myself."
"Because I'm your favorite brother, duh!" Emmett said it like it was the most obvious thing in the world.
"You're my only brother, you moron!"
"It doesn't mean that I can't be your favorite brother only because there's no competition, that would be so not fair." Don't get me wrong, I love my older brother but he could always find a way to get on my nerves. He's sometimes so annoying and acts like a 5 year old…wait, he's always acting like a 5 year old! Sometimes I wonder if my parents would have even thought about having another child if they had known that their firstborn would be so retarded. "Eddie boy, could you explain to me one more time why it is that you prefer being completely alone in your office doing nothing than drinking with us at my place?"
"I already told you that I'm busy."
"Edward we both know it's bullshit! The only reason that you're even at the club now is because you're hoping that she'll come tonight. Man, it's not like you even know that she'll be there!"
"Either way I'm not coming to your party, Em."
"It's not a party! It's just a social gathering."
"Social gathering my ass! Music in your apartment is louder than the one at the club and this is saying something."
"Eddie…"
"Just let me be, Em. Next time, ok?"
"You always say that."
"And I always keep my word."
"True…but the next time you're here you could bring someone…like a girl."
"Emmett, you and I both know that I'm not…"
"…I'm not telling you to find yourself a wife just yet cause we both know that you don't even know how to settle down! This is mom's job, not mine. But maybe if you got laid you'd loosen up a bit. You're not so ugly, you know, it's genetical so it's impossible for you to be ugly when I'm such a looker."
"Emmett! If it was genetical then I'd be also dumb as you and this ain't happening! Trust me, I don't have troubles with getting laid, I could walk out of this room right now and just grab a girl…it's just that I don't feel like it."
"Edward, it's been 4 days since the last time you fucked someone and this isn't like you! You don't go a day without sex! Are you telling me that you're gay?!" Of course this is what my shit of a brother would get out of my response. Just fucking great. It's impossible for us to be siblings…he just has to be adopted!
"NO! You're such an idiot! I'm just not up for a random fuck, that's all."
"You're not up for a random fuck?! Are you kidding me?! What the heck, man?! You're you for fuck's sake! You're a guy! We're always up for random sex! And you're sure you're not becoming gay?"
"Do you want me to call Rose and tell her what you just told me? I'm reminding you that you're also a guy. I don't think that your fiancé would appreciate it if I told her that the man she's going to marry is 'always up for random sex'. Do you really want to sleep on the couch till the wedding? Cause I can definitely make that happen for you, my brother.''
"Ok, I get it! Edward's not gay, everyone! Jeez, you didn't have to go all Rambo on me. I was just getting worried about you. We're brothers, we should stick together, not call each other's fiancés to tell on the other."
"You're missing a valid point. I don't even have a girlfriend you could call!"
"You're right about this one, hmmm…you're not playing fair brother! Get yourself a girl so I could threaten you too!" This is the very famous logic of Emmett Cullen aka dumbass.
"I'm hanging up right now. Bye, Em. Tell Rose I said 'hi"
"Don't you dare…" And I hung up on him…like always.
Tonight wasn't anything special, just another night I spent at the club looking at teenagers and young adults having fun. They all seemed so carefree like they didn't have a thing to worry about. They could just let go of everything, get drunk and have fun till dawn.
It's not like I couldn't do just the same. There wasn't a thing that could be holding me back. I don't have a wife waiting for me at home with dinned or anything, hell…I don't even own a dog. Every single plant I had in my apartment got kinda withered…I guess when you don't water them this might happen…
Anyway, I always preferred to watch. Stand aside from them all and just observe other people. When they have no idea that they're being watched they don't try to hold themselves back. They aren't pretending then.
It became my habit that I would stand by my window and search through the crowd for this one girl. She became the highlight of my night. The first night I saw her I couldn't take my eyes off her. Her dance moves are hypnotizing. Like she was a professional dancer and I'm not talking about strippers, cause I don't consider them dancers, nevermind. Her whole demeanor screams that she could have anyone but no one could ever have her without permission. She's nothing I've ever seen before and believe me I've had many girls. Hell…many isn't even the right word. None of them seemed even slightly as tempting as she is. You know what they say about chasing the rabbit…I guess it's something that makes the game more interesting. For her I'm willing to test this theory. And I have quite a good feeling that tonight I'm going to catch my rabbit and maybe even pet it nicely.
It's like I could sense her presence… And of course I was right…she was back. Dancing right in the middle of the dance floor. As always. Moving in a way that made my lips go dry and my heart skip a beat. The sight of her always made me feel this complete fascination. Not like an obsession but quite close. She was something exquisite to watch even if I've never seen her from up close. Her body language seemed very inviting and when she danced it was impossible to concentrate on anything that wasn't her. She moved with such confidence, almost like she knew what she was doing to every single male in that room…including me. I already thought that she was stunning and I hadn't even seen her face. Right now she was dancing with some guy, who I obviously envied, pressing her back into his chest in a way that should be banned. His filthy hands on her ribs slowly going down a few inches with every beat of the song that was on. She didn't seem to mind but who cares, I did! He was definitely enjoying himself too much. This dude had to go…and I was going to take his place just so she wouldn't feel lonely. You know, damsel in distress and all that…
So... Let me know what you think ;)
