What if you decided you were sick of being on of the boys and wanted to be one of the girls...
Disclaimer: Yeah...I own nothing, just the details that I added. The song is by the very talented Katy Perry and characters are from the brilliant mind of Stephanie Meyer--duh.
"Kill it!"
"No way man, you kill it."
"These are brand new, I'm not getting bug guts all over them!"
"Shit, Dude it's moving!!"
"Get out of the way you girls."
Emmett and Jasper happily let themselves get knocked out of the way. Quick as lightening a cup came down on the spider. Carefully the cup was pulled towards the end of the table, where a piece of paper covered it's escape.
"Phew! You're a life-saver," Jasper laughed leaning against the table in relief.
"Seriously, that thing was huge!" Emmett exclaimed over exaggerating it's size to that of a dinner plate.
I rolled my eyes, "That's what she said," causing the guys to laugh, "But seriously you're worse than a bunch of girls."
With that I took the paper off the cup and chucked it out the door. Girlish screams echoed in the hall after me as the door closed shut. I laughed pointing between the hall and the boys, "See! Exactly the same."
Jasper rolled his eyes laughing sarcastically, while Emmett growled and jumped at me. I winced as he caught me up in a headlock for a few seconds before I turned and elbowed him in the stomach.
Emmett collapsed groaning, while Jasper laughed. I glanced over at him with an eyebrow raised, still chuckling he raised all ten of his fingers.
"Yes!" I exclaimed throwing my arms up, jogging in place. Emmett took a swing at my legs but I managed to jump out of the way and ......right into a table instead.
"Smooth," Jasper smirked, while Emmett got to his feet laughing. I made a face at them as I rubbed my hip with a groan. 'Oh that's SO going to bruise'
"Fall down again Bella?" The trio looked towards the door where a green eyed bronze haired boy stood.
"Bite me Edward," I said said narrowing her eyes trying to ignore the increased pounding of my heart, and then remembering I asked excitedly, "You got the stuff?"
Edward hesitated with a smirk on his face, slowly he started to shake his head and reached into his bag.
"Yeah, I still can't believe you eat these things," He handed me a white Tupperware container.
"Har har har," I rolled my eyes taking the container and peeking under the lid.
"Sweet! Gladys will be pleased." I grinned at up at Edward who smiled in response.
"I still can't believe you have one of those things," Emmett shuddered twirling drumsticks in his hands.
"Yeah and you call it Gladys,"Jasper added pulling on a bass.
"Hey now, say what you will about me, but leave Gladys out of this." I said dramatically pointing back and forth between the two of them.
"Take a chill pill Bells. It's only a tarantula." Edward laughed taking off his bag and tossing it to the side.
"Well that tarantula is my best friend, you three can suck it." I said pulling on my guitar.
"Woah, such a lady sometimes..." Jasper smiled plugging his bass into the amp.
I stuck my tongue out at him and said, "You all are just jealous that I love her the most."
Jasper rolled his eyes plucking out a scale, while Edward shook his head at me getting behind his keyboard, turning it on. The only one upset was Emmett, looking crestfallen.
"That just isn't right Bells."
I smiled at him like a mother would to her toddler, "Don't worry Emmett, you're a strong second."
He grinned hitting the the cymbals with a crash.
"Hell yeah!"
I laughed pulling out my lucky blue pick from my back pocket and started strumming.
"What number am I?" my fingers froze and my stupid heart started hammering again in my chest. Looking up I locked eyes with Edward's expectant green gaze.
Beating down the butterflies, I pulled on a grimace, "You don't want to know"
Edward snorted and mumbled something under his breath looking down at the black and white keys.
Confused, I was just about to ask what, when Emmett let out an impatient groan.
"Let's do this already!"
"That's what she said!" Jasper and I said together causing the four of us to burst out laughing.
"Alright, Em's right. Ready?" Edward asked holding up a hand. We all struck our poses, standing at musical attention ready for his command. He started counting us off,
"One, Two.....1, 2, 3, Four!" We all started our warm ups....
"Bella, that was sick! Where did that come from?" Jasper asked his bass case banging into my side. Steading myself briefly against the hallway wall I shrugged thinking about the little guitar solo I just played, "Just something I've been thinking about."
"Well it's good, try to find some lyrics and we'll add if to our playlist." Edward added nudging me with his elbow.
I smiled trying to keep my answering blush at their words of praise at bay, "sweet, I will."
"Yes!" Emmett whispered, looking up I saw what can only be described as Aphrodite's earthly form-- or Jasper's twin sister Rosalie.
She was strutting down he hall towards us, her long blonde hair flowing around her shoulders. Our little group came to a stop, as did every other male in a 20 foot radius.
I could practically hear Emmett panting, rolling my eyes I took a closer look at Rosalie. I guess I can see what got Em so excited.
It must be Rosalie's pale pink v-neck top, short jean skirt, and pale pink heels; but I do have to admit... she is glorious. Way too beautiful for Forks high school.
She was now just passing our group, and threw a wink at Emmett.
"Hello my future wife," He called after her grinning. Her only response was the extra swinging of her hips.
Emmett, Edward, and I even found myself saying, "Damn!"
"Dudes!" Jasper yelled disgustedly shoving Edward towards me and Emmett. Luckily I managed to side step the impending collision leaving Edward to bounce harmlessly off Emmett's broad back. Emmett and every other male in he hall were watching Rosalie's retreat down the hall.
"Jazz, I think your sister is as deep as a puddle, but even I have to admit she walks good," I said with a laugh. Edward nodded in agreement looking sheepish. Completely unphased Emmett watched her until she turned the corner at the other end of the hall.
"Jasper, man, you've got to hook me up with her," he pleaded finally returning to earth.
Jasper shuddered and started walking down the hall again. The three of us followed after him with Emmett in the lead.
"Come on Dude, anything-- I will give you anything!" Jasper shook his head at Em.
"Drop it man," He growled his blonde curls keeping pace with his steps.
Right as Emmett was about to plead his case again, he snapped it shut crossing his arms across his chest.
I watched peace wash over Jasper's irritated expression and a soft smile blossom on his lips as little Alice Cullen danced her way over to him.
"Hey," He smiled down at her. She grinned back, "Hey yourself," she stood up on her tip toes pecking his lips. Even such a small gesture made me want to look away in embarrassment, like I was interrupting a very private moment. But it was Alice that broke the spell they were under as she waved at us, "Hey guys!"
"Hi Alice," we chorused back, all unenthusiastic, and all for different reasons. Like clockwork, Alice sweeped her pale green eyes over me criticizingly, raising an eyebrow in disapproval.
I snorted straightening my guitar strap and pulling down my plaid button down shirt.
"Not going to happen."
Alice rolled her eyes at my stubbornness. She's been trying to play Bella Barbie ever since we discovered boys were cute and in fact did not posses cooties. I didn't give in then, I'm not giving in now.
"You all coming over tonight?"
"Of course Ali, band rehearsal," Edward said like he was talking to mentally slow person.
"What were you just doing?" She asked pointing vaguely back down the hall toward the music room.
"Band practice," We all said together causing Alice to roll her eyes again, "Is there a difference?"
"Yes," We all answered together again but we made it sound more like duh instead of affirmative.
"Oh whatever," Alice stuck her tongue out at us, and then she turned solely looking at Jasper.
"See you later," her smile growing, "love you."
Jasper grinned down at her, "Love you."
He leaned down, gently kissing her-- this time I discretely looked away. I caught Edward looking away too, he shook his head at me with a smile looking like 'can you believe this?' I laughed softly shaking my head at him, seeing movement out of my peripheral I glance over to see Jasper pulling back. I smiled looking at Alice's slightly dazed expression but I was taken aback by the slight tug on my heart.
Watching Alice knock sense back into herself, she gave him a wink and then danced back down the hall where we had come from, I wondered what emotion was that. It wasn't anger, It wasn't happiness....I was sad and a little jealous. I felt my body lock up in shock, why am I jealous?! I do not like Jasper that way—I mentally shuddered at the thought. Then why? Because they're happy together.
I pouted, damn voice of logic. I crossed my arms, staring dejectedly down the hall. I almost screamed when I felt someone poke my ticklish side. Glancing over I saw Edward smiling crookedly at me, and I felt warm all over. Oh man was I in trouble. Mentally giving my self a shake I heard Jasper sigh happily.
I laughed, playfully punching his shoulder.
He looked over at me and grinned, before starting to walk down the hall again.
"That's so messed up!" Emmett's voice erupted from behind me causing me to trip in surprise. I reflexively reached out and steadied myself against a railing. Wait...there's no railing in the hallway. Looking from my hand I traveled up the wrist and up the arm belonging to Edward and his amused expression.
I dropped his arm like I was burned, in a way I was, muttering a thanks and internally cursing Emmett's name.
"Why?" Jasper asked looking over his shoulder at him still walking.
"It's okay for you to hook up with Eddie's sister, but I can't get with yours?" Edward spoke up then.
"First off, call me Eddie again and I'll kick your ass. Second I had no say in the matter. Who Alice chooses is her decision, not mine. Just as long as Jasper understands if he hurts her, I will kill him," Edward paused waiting for Jasper's nod before continuing, "Then I don't care. If you want Rosalie so badly you should just ask her out yourself."
Jasper let out a strangled scream looking at Edward in shock. Emmett grinned.
"Thanks for the advice Edward."
Jasper narrowed his eyes and punched Edward's arm.
"Dude, you suck."
Edward laughed rubbing his bicep, "Jazz, he would have figured it out eventually."
I snorted again, this time in disbelief. Sure he would have. Edward caught my eye and winked at me. I tried to fight the blush that was trying to creep up my face.
Glancing away I looked at my right to see Emmett deep in thought. I laughed out loud at that. I couldn't understand what he saw in Rosalie Hale. She was stuck up, and full of herself. Whatever it's his funeral I mentally shrugged walking out into the misty rain.
"Alright guys, I'll see you later tonight," I announced.
"See ya Bells," Jasper half slapped half shook my hand, as did Emmett with a mischievous glint in this eye. I turned to Edward who smiled at me with his hand raised, waiting.
"Later Bella," I gave him a high five and turned toward my truck. My eyes were stinging with unshed tears that I couldn't completely explain.
I took a deep breath and got in. I started it letting it's roar calm my frazzled nerves.
