Authors Note: This is part two to the Secret Discovery. I hope you enjoy. Anything that seems familiar is not mine the plot and twits are though.
Ch 1. Surprise
Edward stayed the night with me. I was really tired in the morning and didn't want to go to school but I knew in this small town if I didn't go the whole town would hear about it. I woke up to find Edward sitting in my rocking chair watching me sleep. I smile at him and walk over to him. Its hard not to just run into his arms but I've gotten better control recently.
"Hey Beautiful," Edward says as I finally rest in his arms. I roll my eyes at his comment because I know for sure my hair is sticking out every which way in the morning but he still says that.
"Hey Edward. I need another human minute," I say. Its become our joke after the first time I said it. I still feel uncomfortable in the morning. He opens his arms apart like every morning and I get up slowly and rush into the bathroom with all things. I finish in record time knowing that each time I rush I'm taking a chance knowing how one day I might trip and fall.
I walk into he room and see that he left his arms open almost as if I had never gotten up. I scoot into his lap and he rocks us back and forth for a while.
"School today, you ready for it?" he asks in his musical voice.
"As ready as I ever am. Charlie left early for work didn't he?" I asked already knowing the answer. My father Charlie has been living on his own ever since my mom left him and had established a routine that I had never let him break.
"Yes he did. Come on now we have to go get you breakfast and then to school." Edward replies and as he finishes speaking he lifts me up and takes me out the front door. I am still trying to get over the fact that he can lift me up without a problem. I don't try to struggle away worried that if I do I would end up falling. I'm sure Edward would just catch me if I were falling.
We ate breakfast. Well I did, Edward just watched me. Edward drove me to school like he does on most cloudy days. The only time I have to get in my car now is when I have to go to work or when its sunny. But even then Edward finds a way to drive me to school.
I was really nervous to get to school I knew that all the Cullens would know my now and I'm not sure if they would be happy about it. I know that Alice is happy she almost took me shopping instead of home. Edward is happy too I can see it in his eyes. I'm worried about Carlisle and Esme the most.
As Edward parks the car I take a dramatic breath and brace myself for the four Cullen children that I have to deal with first. As I step out of the open door, thanks to Edward using his speed to open the door, I notice that Alice and Rosalie are waiting for us. I don't see Emmett or Jasper anywhere but I'm sure that they will have something to say at lunch.
"Hey Edward and Bella," Alice says in her normal bouncy way. I Rosalie just stands there looking at me with a closed expression. I'm not sure what to take from it but I don't like it.
"Hey Alice, Rosalie. What's up?" I reply trying to keep my voice from squeaking. Edward holds me closer to him and I can see his lips moving super fast and low so I cant understand a word he's saying. But I can see what reaction he gets from the two girls in front of me. Alice gets a sad look on her face and Rosalie just glares at me and walks away. I could almost cry right now. I was hoping that she had warmed up to me but it looks like she's back to hating me.
"Its okay Bella, Rosalie is just being a poor sport. Come on lets go find Jasper and Emmett before classes start," Alice says in an over the top excited voice. I have no idea how she can be like that but I just give her a teary eyed smile. Edward nods at her and turns me to face him. He puts his hand on my cheek and stares into my eyes. I just stare back and I know that everything is going to be alright.
Jasper and Emmett were wondering the halls. When we caught up with them Jasper congratulated me and sent me a wave of happiness I could only smile at him. He still kept his distance but it was nice that he was taking this so well. Emmett well there is only one way to describe Emmett and that's over the top. As soon as we saw him and ran towards me and almost squished me to death it took Edward and Jasper to get me out of his hands without breaking me. He was happy for me and even though his wife was upset he was the immature happy kid that he always is. That made me laugh.
Overall school was starting out pretty well. I just hope it stays this way.
