Chapter 1
I was sitting at a table in the mall with my best friend Alice Brandon, she was kind short, with black spiky hair; a pixie nonetheless. She really was my only friend, she was going on about her boyfriend Jasper and how they're so in love, but I wasn't paying much attention. As much as I loved Alice, she talked too much sometimes, and I was busy staring off at the most popular guy in cool, Edward Cullen. He used to be my friends, until we started High School. I haven't talked to him in about 4 years, We're now seniors and we never paid attention to each other anymore. Freshman year came around and he became the football star and track star. He out grew me, I didn't matter to him, he didn't need me.
But, lately he's been staring at me and paying attention to me, he even broke up with his girlfriend Tanya, the head cheer leader. He seems different now, almost like he's the same person from Middle School, but I think I'm just seeing things, Alice says there is no way Edward would ever change, not after all these years.
"Bella!"
"Huh?"
"You were staring off at Edward again, weren't you?!"
"I can't help it Alice, he used to be my best friend when we were kids, it's hard to shut him out, even after 4 years."
"Bella you need to get over him, he obviously got over you." I was just about to respond to her when I heard a velvet voice call my name.
"Hey Bella"
"Edward." I shot a glance over to Alice and she got up.
"I'll.. Uh, just go.. Call me later Bella."
"Mind if I sit?"
"No, go ahead. Is there something you need? Biology notes, help on homework or something?"
"Um, no, I was wondering if you were doing anything tonight."
"No, probably just sit home and read Wuthering Heights."
"Again? How many times have you read it? Like 5,000?"
"No, about 500 or so." I blushed, he seemed amused.
"I'm having a party tonight, come, bring Alice if you want."
"I don't know.."
"Come on, please? For me?"
"Alright fine, but not too long."
"Still remember where I live?" I nodded and he smiled and walked off. That was really weird, Edward never invited me to any parties, let alone talk to me unless it was in Biology, about biology.
I got up from the table and walked out of the mall and called Alice.
"Hello?"
"Hey Ali, where are you?"
"Waiting at your car, why?"
"I'll tell you when I get to you, I'm on my way." I walked to my car and unlocked it. Alice and I climbed in and I told her about how Edward invited me to his party, and said I could bring her with me, she was so excited, we got to my house and she played Bella Barbie with me so we could get ready for the party, it was already 8 and the party started at 9. Alice and I got into the car after we were both ready and I drove to Edwards. I still remembered where it was from when I was little and my dad would take me over to his house for 'Play Dates' as he called it. We made our way down the path to his house, surrounded by the forest and got out. He smiled and led us in when we got out. To my surprise there were not many people here, only 6 including me and Alice. There was Rosalie Hale, Jasper Hale, Emmett Cullen and Edward Cullen. Rosalie and Emmett were in the corner making out and Jasper ran up to Alice and hugged her. That left Edward and myself alone, and that scared me. The door bell rang again and Edward looked confused, but he went to answer it anyway, It was Tanya, his ex-girlfriend.
"Eddie!" She said hugging him.
"Tanya, what the hell are you doing here? I didn't invite you, and don't call me Eddie." He looked pissed.
"We'll I heard you were having a couples party, so I came to be your girlfriend."
"No, I don't want you, leave! Now!" She left in tears and he walked up to me.
"Couples party huh? Then why am I here?"
"It's not a couples party, I did it so Alice and Jasper could get some time together, besides we should talk, I haven't really talked to you in 4 years. I know I probably hurt you." He was looking at me with a hurtful expression.
"Is something wrong, I mean, you don't talk to me for 4 years, then all of the sudden you look depressed and now you want to talk to me? Care to explain?"
"Come with me.." He led me out of the house and to a beautiful meadow.
