Chapter 1

I wasn't expecting this. Edward, Cullen, was actually good, wait erase that one, great at playing football. "Well, duh! He's good at everything, Bella." I told myself.

Anyways, here I was, standing in front of this huge campus field with the main exit behind my back. Without taking a second look at my scenario, I was actually preparing to run through those doors the minute he sees me. I mean, who won't?

And yes, I am completely aware that we are a sure-fire damn hot couple. But it doesn't mean that I won't be self-conscious. I don't want him to think of me as his stalker girlfriend. So with that, I turned my back against the field as the clicking of my heels echoed the place.

That doesn't sound good. But I still carried on walking. And sadly, it isn't my fate to be lucky this day.

"Bella… Wait!" Edward exclaimed as he saw me and tried to catch up with me.

"Oh, shit!" I muttered as I ran for the door. Luckily, opening it before my breath was knocked out of me. But I admit, it was already. Yet, Edward was faster and caught my wrist. "Bella," he started, "Where do you think you're going?"

I smiled sheepishly, "Outside?". He's playing with me, I know. But honey, two can play in his game. Right?

He then flashed me his oh-so-adorable crooked smile. "Really?" he asked. I stuttered, "Uhmm…yeah. I was supposed to go back to my room before you showed up." I am so dead. I mean how can I possibly win this, I'm a freakin' bad liar.

And I knew he had sensed the hesitation in my voice and quirked an eyebrow up at me and moved closer. His sweet breath caressed my face as he asked, "Is that all you did, Bella?". I nodded as he held my eyes with his, hypnotizing me with every corner those green orbs had. I felt my knees go week but I tried not to fall or faint in front of him. Or at least, not now. Later?

I mentally laughed at my eagerness. And soon I got startled and at the same time out of trance when he suddenly chuckled.

"Okay. I was just checking if you're honest- he emphasized on this word- with your boyfriend." Then he turned to go back on the field while dragging me along. But the guilt ate me whole as the realization hit me with a BOOM. And now, I couldn't resist not to tell him the truth. So I grabbed his arm before we even stepped on those green pastures and hugged him.

"Oh, Edward!", I sobbed, "I can't do this. I'm sorry, Edward. I lied to you. I wasn't being the girlfriend you thought I was at the moment. The truth us that, yes, the first part's true but that's not all that I did." I paused and continued. "I watched you, too. But I was awfully scared that you'll think of me as your stalker girlfriend so I decided to leave the field. Then," I sighed, "I know you pretty much know the rest of the story."

We both fell silent and I was waiting for him to get mad and push me away. For all that I knew, Edward valued honesty and I lied. I freakin' lied to him. What kind of a girlfriend am I? I can't even be honest with my own boyfriend! Lied, for the sake of not being seen as a damned stalker girlfriend. How can I be so fuckin' stupid?

So here I was preparing myself for what I think was to happen.

But all of the sudden, Edward just hugged me and kissed my forehead gently. And every single thought of him being mad at me vanished. "I was good, was I?" he said as I rolled my eyes at him and he just laughed at my reaction.

"You ass." I said as I playfully smacked his arm. He, lightening up my mood pretended to be hurt as he rubbed his arm with his right hand. "That hurt, Bella. You should say sorry." He said this as he put on his best child-like just-had-a-boo-boo look. I smiled at this and put a hand on his arm.

"Aww, Little Eddie got hurt. What should I do Eddie to make the hurt go away?" I said as I looked at his arm and rubbed it too. And when I looked up I realized that he was watching me. I smiled back at him and this made him smile bigger.

"Maybe, a kiss would make the pain go away." he said as his mouth carved up into my favorite crooked grin. Boy, if he does that every time, I might just give him everything that he wants. And he already got the truth out of me and now he wants a kiss. But I couldn't resist so I told him, "Okay."

So he tilted his head and pressed his lips against mine with the lightest of touches. And after a few seconds, we broke away gasping for breathe.

He recovered first and asked me as he intertwined our fingers and went for the field, "But I was really good was I?". But I was still dazed from the kiss that we shared and all I could do is to nod. So that's what I did.

He chuckled. "Do you want to play with me Bella?" he asked as he removed his hands from mine and picked up a ball and he was about to give it to me. That sent me out of trance as I stared up at him.

Shit. What the hell would I tell him? I mean, I know how to play but am not good at it. But I'm also eager to learn if ever he will teach me but I will only screw things up.

"I can't Edward." I paused to see him sad and confused. He was about to protest but I stopped him with my rambling. "I mean I would like, wait screw that one, love to play but the thing is I suck at it." I confessed as I looked down to play with my fingers.

And then I felt him cup my face as he said, "There's nothing you need to be afraid of, love. I can always teach you, you know." I bit my lower lip and nodded. "Okay… If you say so." I looked up at him and saw him staring at that lip I just had bitten. I tried to laugh but that would sound embarrassing so I just coughed to hide my amusement and that kinda woke him up and smiled up at me.

"You really know how to seduce a boy, you little booger. How the hell can I ever teach you if you keep biting your lip like that when you're kind of nervous?" he said as he threw his hands up in the air, exasperated.

I just smiled and put both my hands around his neck and gave him a fast, sweet, peck on the cheeks. "Then, try."
