Summary: Bella's after Edward, her stepfather's newest employee. She's attracted to him but he doesn't seem to be interested in her. What's a girl to do to make a man notice her? Drabble fic. BPOV.

1.

Who is he? I think silently, glancing at the young man with tousled bronze hair leaning against my car.

I confidently walk towards him with both hands planted firmly on my hips. "Who the hell are you?" I demand.

He straightens up immediately and I get a better look at him.

Oh my God.

He's the most good looking male specimen I've seen in ages. Broad shoulders, well toned abs under his fitted shirt, a six feet and three inch frame along with dazzling green eyes.

"Hi", I squeak.

"Hello", he says courteously, extending a hand to me.

Huh? What am I supposed to do? I smile dumbly and fit my small hand in his palm. I realise that I'm in danger of fainting in to his touch and pull away a few seconds later. It wouldn't do well if I fell straight into his arms on our first meeting. I don't even know who the guy is but I'm in awe of his looks.

I mentally scold myself for judging a man by his looks. The last time I did that, I was stuck in the dullest relationship ever, with my sister's best friend: Jacob Black.

"I'm Edward", he continues, flashing a crooked smile.

Whoa. "I'm Bella", I say, confidence slowly oozing. "It's nice to meet you, Edward."

"Likewise", he replies, stuffing his hands in the pockets of his faded jeans.

Hmm. "So what brings you to Dwyer Estate?" I ask, moving closer to him. It is my house and I'm more than entitled to ask a visitor their reason for being there.

What if he's here to pick Rose for a date? My sister did mention that she had a hot date this evening so maybe this is the guy. Shit, she'll kill me if she finds out I'm planning to flirt with one of her dates.

Oh well.

"I'm here on business", he says.

"What kind of business?" I flip my hair to the other side.

"Work", he replies mysteriously.

"What work?" I prod.

"I'm Dwyer Inc's newest lawyer."

Yes! He's not here for Rose.

"Really?" I ask, wondering how my stepfather decided to hire someone so young. Phil constantly complains how young people never get work done properly and Edward here looks pretty young to me.

"Yeah", he says, running a hand through his hair.

"Sooo...", I say, upset that he isn't interested in talking to me.

"Where's Mr. Dwyer?" he asks uncomfortably. Hmph. As if I'm the one making him at unease.

"He's out right now", I say. "But if you need any help, do let me know. I'll assist you with whatever you need." Yeah, I'm up for anything. If this dude wanted me begging on my knees, I'd do it.

I may sound desperate but I don't care a crap. I haven't had a relationship in a year and the last time I got any was five months ago. Eep. I haven't had sex in five whole months and it's making me horny.

Would Phil mind if I jumped his newest employee in our drive-way?

I'd like to think not but he most likely would. And as for Mom, she'd go ape-shit if she found out I'm not saving myself for marriage.

"When will he back?" he asks in disappointment.

"I dunno", I say. "Probably soon."

"Okay then. Do you mind if I wait inside?"

I smile. "Of course not", I place a hand on his forearm and walk him to the door.

This is going to be interesting.

Probably gonna be a few chapters long. Put it on alert and don't forget to review! This'll be different from most of my ExB work ;)
