Hi guys! It's Leahmari13 here and this is officially the first chapter of my story, I'd Lie. Be easy on me, it's my first chapter ever and I really don't know what I'm doing…but I'm gonna try! J It has all the Twilight characters but I've changed it around little bit…oh and Bella has blue eyes this time(sorry if u don't like that idea but everyone else should be the same). I've also added a character or two that weren't there before. Those characters belong to ME and no one else, I didn't copy them. The story will be mostly BPOV because I'm not good at writing in a guys POV. Wellllll…let me know what you think J
DISCLAIMER: Sadly, I don't own Twilight, no matter how much I wish I did L
Chapter 1-
BPOV
So there's this boy. His name is Edward Cullen, and he is my best friend in the world. He is tall, with messy bronze colored hair and gorgeous emerald green eyes. I've known him practically since I was born. Though, I guess before I say anything else, I should tell you a little bit about myself. My name is Isabella Swan. I am thirteen years old and live in Kentucky. I have brown hair and blue eyes. I'm very short, like extremely short. I guess I got that from my parents, they're only 5'4 and 5'8. I like to draw and paint, even if I'm not that good. And reading. I read more books than most people think is healthy for a "kid my age". Oh and I'm completely obsessed with horses, caramel, and candy canes. I know, I know, I'm weird but I really don't care.
I met Edward when I was three years old. Apparently our parents ran into each other at the fair and became friends. He's been my best friend ever since.
Actually, we are on our way to Edward's house now. My fifteen year old sister, Arika, is going to baby-sit us while our parents go out. You know how most people hate their sisters? Well, I don't. I like Arika. I mean, we fight(a lot) but she's actually really cool. Like me, but a taller, more sophisticated version. The kind of person everybody either wants to be, or be around. Her hair is really long, a light brown color, and very wavy. She is absolutely gorgeous, unlike me. I got the "average" genes in the family. I'm not ugly, I know that much…but I'm nothing like her. One of the best things about her is that when she baby-sits us, we can do pretty much whatever we want. Edward lives in Manchester, which is pretty much code for "out in the sticks" but I like their place. They have a small, single-wide trailer that sits on a hill with a long, winding gravel driveway that connects to the gravel road. Gravel. Not blacktop. Like I said, the sticks. But the view they have from the back window looks over a mountain and it is absolutely beautiful. I love to sit in Edward's room and just stare out hat window, thinking of nothing and everything all at once.
The rest of the house is pretty cool too. Most of it is horse-themed. They have all kinds of little horse statues and figurines in the living room. And I absolutely love horses. His sister's room is the only one without a horse/country theme to it. It's all pink and very girly. I'm talking like My Little Ponies and Tinkerbells everywhere. But my favorite room is his. Could be because it has a bunk-bed and a Playstation in there. Or maybe just because it's his room. You decide. I pushed past Mom and followed Arika in after knocking only once, not bothering to wait for a response, as per usual.
"We're here," she sang. Esme, Edward's mother, was sitting on the old leather cloth with Alice, his little sister. Alice was about a year and a half younger than him and trust me, they looked nothing alike. While Alice had short, spiky hair in little pigtails, Edward's hair was a reddish bronze color and always messy. They did have one thing in common though, their emerald green eyes. That was about it. Alice was short and thin, like me, and he was tall. I mean, he's already taller than my dad and he's my age. I'm guessing he'll be six foot before he's eighteen.
"Where's Edward?" I asked, scanning the room and frowning when I didn't see him. Esme laughed.
"Figures you would be looking for him. He's in his room," I ran down the hall, bursting into his room.
"Eddie!" I cried in excitement.
"Bella!" he yelled back, wrapping me up in a hug and holding me for a few seconds longer than was normal for a "friend" hug.
"I missed you," I stated when he finally pulled away, blushing slightly. I smiled instinctively. I loved it when he blushed, it was so cute. Of course, it had only been five days since I last saw him, but hey, that five days was a long time.
"I missed you too. I got a new game, wanna try it out with me?" he asked, pushing a Spyro disc into the game console.
"Sure!" I squealed, plopping down on the floor next to him. I cheered him on and screamed at the TV when he did something wrong, blaming it on glitches in the game itself. Though I think I was enjoying sitting next to him more than I was the video game. Okay, I admit it, I may have a teeny-tiny crush on him. But it's small, nothing really. But after a wile I was bored, well, not bored per-say…but he was having trouble getting past a certain level and I thought I could beat it easily enough.
"Let me try," I begged, reaching for the controller. He held it up, just out of my reach. Damn his height, I thought angrily.
"No,"
"Please?" I pouted.
"No," he repeated. I jumped and tackled him, landing on his chest, still reaching for the controller.
"Give it to me!" I whined. Yes, I'm acting like a child but frankly I don't care.
"No way," he smiled evilly. Yes, I think he enjoys teasing me, especially when it comes to how much taller than me he is. But then I froze. Our faces were only inches apart, close enough that I could kiss him. Actually that sounded like a good idea. God knows I've wanted to for a long time…my heart beat faster and my stomach had butterflies in it. He was staring back at me with the same bewildered expression and I think he just had the same idea I did. He's never kissed a girl either, so it would be his first too. I leaned forward a little and he brought his hand up to my cheek and pulled me toward him. Then Arika came in, breaking the spell. I jumped up and off of him in an instant.
"Dinner," she said simply, thankfully unaware of what just happened. He held out his hand and helped me up. I looked at him and blushed.
"Um…yeah," I said awkwardly, glancing at him, then fixing my eyes on a stain on the carpet I'd never noticed before.
"Well…let's go eat…" he muttered, grabbing my hand and leading me to the dining room. Which only made me blush more. I mean, he held my hand all the time but…that had never happened before.
So what did you think? Like it? Hate it? Let me know! I love all reviews, anonymous or not! :) if you have a profile I will respond personally to your review or if not I might answer any questions in the next chapter :) Did you think it was bad to have an "almost kiss" in the first chap? Don't worry they're both young so they aren't going to get…romantically "involved" until they're older. But they will start to fall in love with each other, even if they don't realize it at first :) So should Edward be Bella's first kiss? Or do u think he should chicken out? And was the chap too short? If so I promise to make it longer in chapter 2 :) Buuuuuut I won't update unless I get at least five reviews, from anyone! If you have any tips let me know! I'm all ears! Oh and one more thing…if it's been more than three weeks since I updated and I got my five reviews then I give you permission to bug me constantly to update if you have to :) Love you all! I promise I read every review I get! (Oh and I went back and edited the chapter, if you've already read it, you don't have to read it again, I just added details and such…but you can if you want to)
