Author's Note: Hey guys! How are you? I know I haven't been here in Fanfiction for so looong! But I'm here with a new story. Like I said in my profile, this story is inspired by my own life situation with a twist of my imagination.
SUMMARY: Do you know the feeling when you're texting your crush and he's telling you something about his feelings towards the girl he likes? Well, Bella Swan knows the feeling. Edward Cullen just started texting her and he started talking about how he feels towards a girl. Can Bella control her feelings towards him?

Send Me Your Love
Chapter 1
I'm always that kind of person who has high expectations on things. Because of this, I always end up hurting, crying… broken. I don't really know why I always expect things which deep inside I know it won't really happen. It hurts to think that things always end up so badly for me.
I always have that expectation in love and attraction towards a person. I expected them to be attracted to me like the way I am attracted to them. I expected them to wish that I am the only one for them. I expected them to be with me. I expected them to love me back. But somehow it was something my destiny and fate didn't want for me.
After all, who would love me? I mean, I'm just Isabella Swan, the ordinary girl. I'm not special. Call me the Plain Jane. I have a dull brown eyes and long, straight brown hair. I am pale and I am clumsy. I always end up on ER whenever I fall on my own feet. I'm not that tall, I'm just five feet and five inches. I am shy; I don't like being the center of attraction. I tend to get away from the crowd. Sometimes I just want to be with myself, lost with books and music.
And I'm not the girl any guy would want.
I am attracted to this guy. At first it was just a crazy feeling, just a stupid crush. But when I get to know him well, I guess I've fallen for him. I know I have to control myself from what I am feeling because he probably likes someone else. And that thought hurts so bad.
I was starting to lose hope until it happened.
It was our Biology class and Mr. Banner hasn't come yet. I was scribbling on my notebook while listening to Alice Brandon's endless talking. Then he interrupted my scribbling and Alice's talking.
"Hey, Bella." He greeted.
"Hey, Edward! What's up?" I replied.
"Well, I just got here my new phone," he said, flashing his new iPhone 4s, "and I want to get our schoolmates' phone numbers. What's yours?"
I scribbled my number on a sheet of paper then gave it to him. "Here"
He punched my number on his phone and said, "Sure your phone number is easy to memorize."
I laughed a little."I guess so."
He smiled. "Okay. Thanks. See you around."
With that, he went back into his desk, at the same time Mr. Banner entered the room. I sighed.
"Bella! Did Edward Cullen just have your phone number?" Alice whispered.
"He probably needs it in case he needs my help with our English lessons. Nothing special."
"But you might get to know each other well!" Oh, Angela, I really doubt that.
I sighed. "Let's not talk about these things. Let's get started before Mr. Banner catches us."
When I got home at night, I've got lots of text messages on my phone from my schoolmates. Most of them were just group messages so I decided to delete them all. But before I got the chance to delete them all, another new message flashed on the screen of my Samsung Galaxy. It was just a number which was obviously didn't come from my phonebook. I don't usually read text from unknown senders because most of them were just pranks or telling you that you've won lots of money. But maybe this one's important. I scrolled the message down to see if there's a signature below. Fortunately, there is. It read:
EAMC
Sheez, why hadn't I thought of that? He asked for your phone number awhile ago, you idiot! Oh and EAMC are his initials. Edward Anthony Masen Cullen. Such an old-fashioned name but it suited him.
Who knew Edward Cullen is the type of person who sends group messages?
And so I sent him a message.
Hey, Edward. I typed in and hit send. I read my favorite classic novel, Wuthering Heights while waiting for his response. After a minute, he replied:
Hey, Bella! How are you tonight?
I quickly typed in, I'm good. What about you? What are you doin'?
I'm bored.
Don't you have assignments to do?
Yes, I have but I'm already done with all of it. Wow, he is indeed smart… and handsome.
Oh, that's great.
Can you give a topic for us to talk to?
I thought about it for a minute then I replied, you choose, friends, love, music… whatever you prefer is fine.
Then I didn't expect his reply.
Have you ever fallen in love? It said.
I've never thought of that. Never. My heart beats faster than usual. Sure, I have a crush on him but I didn't know if what I'm feeling was love. Have I ever fallen in love? What am I suppose to reply to him?
Hello, Edward, I'm in love with you? Well that's just insane.
Instead, I replied, I haven't. What I feel for someone is just a crush.
I wonder what came into his mind to send that question to me. It was so… out of the blue. Then after awhile, my phone flashed another message from him.
Yes. I know how you feel. And so just you know I'm the kind of person who's shy to reveal his real feelings towards a girl.
Oh, so he was shy. I wonder why that is. I also wonder who the lucky girl was. Was it Lauren? Jessica? Charlotte? Or even Tanya Denali?
I sometimes wonder why he would waste his time looking for a girl if he can have any girl he wants. He's quite a popular boy in Forks High School. Not only for his looks, but also because of his gentlemanly ways.
Even though I know it is not me, I'm still thankful because I have him as a friend. It's all that matters. I'd rather be his acquaintance than nothing at all.
But there's still this unavoidable feeling inside of me, a pang in my heart that he has someone else in his mind and heart.
But there's always hope, right?
