Bella stood there in gym awkwardly watching as everybody else played volleyball. She fumbled around with the tennis racket in her hand. She stayed in the far corner as far away from the game as possible as her team mates swung the rackets careless and effortlessly. She sighed and watched the clock as the game went on. She hated gym. She wished it would be over already so she could go run to Edward's car and be with him.

" Bella!" Her gym teacher yelled. She spun around and faced his direction at the other side of the room. He blew his whistle for the fun of it. Bella gulped.

" Yes?" She yelled back nervously.

" Get in the game! Your in this game too!" He yelled. Uh oh. Bella sighed nervously. All eyes were suddenly focused on her as she awkwardly walked out from the corner she was hiding in. She looked down on her feet careful not to trip and send the racket flying into somebody's head. It was possible only for Bella. Lauren,who was on her team,turned to look at her. Lauren shot Bella a nasty look before returning to the game. She glared at the back of Lauren's head. She looked so funny with all her hair chopped off. She couldn't help but burst out laughing.

" Hahaha!" Bella giggled. Lauren turned to her and gave her a dirty look. Bella stopped.

" What are you laughing about?" Lauren asked.

" Nothing." Bella stopped.

Back and forth,back and forth. She just lingered around the net careful to stay out of people's way pretending she was playing. She hated how she still had to go gym even though she was completely uncoordinated. But suddenly,she saw somebody on the opposite side,Jessica stanley,swing the racket in her direction. Before she could even think about it,she swung the racket as hard as she could before it got the chance to hit her. Then she ducked. Wack!

She fell down to her knees and the ball flew over her head at the last second just as her racket slid out of her hands and crashed into the back of Lauren's head.

" Ow!" Lauren cried as she fell down to her knees. The racket bounced off her head and fell to the floor with a little clattering sound. Everyone stared,mouth opened,in their direction. Bella's mouth hung open and she felt herself turning bright red. Lauren rubbed her head and stood up. She turned around and slowly walked towards Bella. She stood directly over her since Bella was still sitting mouth opened on her knees.

" Bella! You stupid little klutz! Can't you manage to be in a ten foot radius of someone without hurting them? " Lauren hissed. Lauren stomped her foot making an echo through the suddenly silenced gym. Lauren went on," Jesus! The world is in danger as soon as Bella picks up a butter knife!" Bella watched in horror as a couple of kids chuckled.

" Sorry." Bella choked out. Then the bell rang. Bella stumbled to her feet. Everybody slowly walked towards the door. Usually they would be chattering anxiously and talking about their weekend on a Friday afternoon,but today they just murmered and whispered and watched Bella awkwardly and shamefully walk towards the door.

Lauren was right behind her. Bella hoped she didn't talk about her. But she knew it was impossible. She just prayed that she didn't say anything to her face again. She was so humiliated. Was the world really in danger as soon as she picked up a butter knife? She shook her head.

" What the hell does Cullen see in her? " Bella heard one of Lauren's friends murmer.

" I know,right? Like I know he can't possibly like her personality. So he could atleast pick somebody prettier than that." Lauren whispered back. Bella fought back the tears that stung her eyes. She reached the door at last but tripped over her shoe lace. She turned around to see if anyone saw her fall. Again. They did. Lauren and her friends giggled hysterically. Bella pushed the door open and there he was. Edward.

" Edward." Bella smiled. She was happy to see a friendly face. He didn't look happy. He didn't even look down. He just stood there blocking the door staring grimly at Lauren. When Lauren reached the door seconds later,she wrinkled up her nose as she saw Bella. Then looked at Edward.

" Move." Lauren hissed. Edward gave her a death glare.

He didn't move.

" What are you staring at?" Lauren asked rudely.

" Nothing important." Edward said coldly and looked Lauren up and down. A/N: I love him! Lauren snorted and narrowed her eyes before pushing past him with her friends and out the door. Edward growled even when she was gone.

Bella grabbed him by the arm and tugged him down the hall. He burned a hole into the back of Lauren's head. He was probably killing her with his mind. Imagining all the things he could do to her and how he could do it without getting in trouble for it. He could manage to kill her and not even break the treaty. He chuckled darkly.

" Okay,lets plot revenge." Bella said immedietely.

" What?" Edward said,snapping out of it and looking down at her. " Oh. I'm sorry. I forgot." He leaned down and kissed her lightly on the forehead. " .. your afternoon kiss."

" Thank you." She said quickly. " But revenge! Edward! Its needed! Lauren is so totally bothering me!"

" Bella,no. No revenge." Edward said. " I hate anybody that bothers you,but Bella. You can't let her get to you."

" But - "

" No."

" Fine." Bella sighed. " Am I coming over today?"

" Don't you everyday?" Edward asked.

" Yes. Okay. So lets go to your house. I have to talk to Jasper and Alice."
