A/N: Hey, it's Michaela and Katie. This is our first story, so we hope you guys like it and we'll take any feedback we can get, positive and negative.
Here is the summary again:
It all started with a lie. They weren't supposed to be together. Bella thought that she was just helping Edward, her childhood friend. Now, she is pretending to be his girlfriend and everything gets blown out of proportion. Will they "break up" or realize that they don't have to lie to be in a relationship? AH BxE OOC
Hope you like it and here's the prologue!
Disclaimer: We totally wished that we owned Twilight.
Bella's POV:
I couldn't fall asleep. He was on my mind…again. He seemed to always be there these days, wandering through my thoughts and never taking the hint that I didn't want him there. But was that really true? After being with him for so long, being alone doesn't feel right.
Edward's face was so clear in my head. His eyes were always the ideal shade of emerald green. His hair that at first glance, was messy and all out of place, but once you took a good look, it was the perfect casual disarray of bronze hair. Oh, and the best part of all was his crooked smile that always made me melt. For those six months I thought that was my smile.
I keep wondering, do I really want him? Before I thought 'No, we are not supposed to be together, this is wrong'. But now?
My feelings are all over the place as I lay here in bed. My feelings say no, but my heart says yes. Yes, yes, YES!
Why can't I convince myself of this? Why can't things be easier? Arg.
This shouldn't be so hard. I should just listen to my heart. Yes, I should listen to my heart. I know I should hate him but, but… I just can't. I know how I feel and I should go with my instinct.
But wait. What if he doesn't feel the same way? What if he really means what he said?
I know about his past, more than most, and because of that I can't seem to hate him. I know how sweet, kind and caring he used to be. But, when I first saw him, after all these years, he was a total player. And a player was someone who I swore to myself that I would never get involved with.
Edward was never someone who I thought would turn out like that. Even after that night so many years ago. When he was so angry at me, for something that was never my choice.
I guess having me back has changed him. Well, according to Alice it has. Even if this turns out for the worst, at least I know that underneath all the 'player'tood', there was still the Edward who I grew up with, the Edward who would hold me when I got hurt and cried, the Edward who would stick through the worst situations with me, the Edward who would tell the kids who made fun of me to back off, and the Edward who was, and probably still is, my best friend.
It feels like something is there with him. Something that I haven't felt before. Something special. Something that, when we were children, I wouldn't have felt. Maybe fate has brought us back together. And hopefully for the better.
I really don't want to pretend anymore. Pretending… acting. That was never something I was good at. But when I was with him, it never really felt like acting. It just felt right.
The only thing stopping me was myself and my fear of being rejected. Knowing everything about him before and now recently means that I shouldn't be scared. But like always, Edward was unpredictable with his actions.
I still need time to think about this. Seeing him tomorrow will be hard, but I can do it. I don't know what I'll do, at the moment, but my heart will show me the way.
I looked over at Alice, asleep in her bed, and I felt bad. This fight between Edward and I really hurt her. She would always say that we were perfect for each other. Not just now, but even when we were younger.
I will always remember those sleepovers in her hot pink room. She would giggle and tell me that when Edward and I got older we would date and kiss and then get married. I would always groan and gag and tell her that she was gross and that I would never get married to one of my best friends. Seriously, a little six year old pixie telling you that you would marry her brother, and your best friend, is a little weird.
I don't know why I doubted her though. She was always good at predicting the future. And now I wish what she predicted, eleven years ago, would come true.
I know now that I do want to be with Edward. I want to sit with him and have him kiss my head. I want him to walk me to my class and give me a quick peck on the lips before he runs off to his class so he won't be late. I want to be in a relationship with him and I want him to care and love me… a little more than he used to.
I feel bad for the way I acted. I feel that I may have overreacted a bit, and now it's my job to fix what has been messed up, even if this entire thing started with a lie and things will get better, for the best… I hope.
We hope you liked it. Like we said above, we'll accept any feedback, positive and negative. We love reviews!!! Also, Michaela has another fanfiction account named, fourA.M. So check that out, there are already 2 stories up there. Thanks for reading!!
