A/N: Hey guys this is my first fanfic so tell me if you like it! Sorry this chapter is kinda short but I don't like long chapters. This is just a result of me having to go on a 9 hour dive in the car with my parents! Let's just say it wasn't fun or entertaining…so I hope you like it!

Disclaimer: I own nothing. :( but I wish I did.

Discovery of the Cullen Secret

Chapter 1:

Mike’s POV

As always, I had dreamt about Bella and I didn’t want it to end and my boring life begin.

“Michael Newton! Get your lazy butt out of bed!” I heard my mom yell at me from downstairs. I sighed and reluctantly got up. As usual, I took my shower and pulled on a pair of jeans and a t-shirt. Not exactly what Edward would wear, but still better than what the average kid would wear. I hopped into my car, an old, beat up Sedan, and headed for school.

When I got to the parking lot, I immediately saw Bella’s truck with Bella leaning on the back end. I started to pull into the empty space beside her when Edward Cullen’s shiny silver Volvo sped into the spot. ‘Damn it! I was going to finally ask her out,’ I thought as I found another spot.

I got out of the car after parking it and saw Bella with him laughing and kissing! ‘Oh hoe I would kill to be him!’ They kept walking and laughed again. In a way it seemed they were laughing at me, but how? Something had always been… off with the Cullens. They were all so strange.

The day went by really fast. I was in gym staring at Bella, who was talking to Alice, when my worst nightmare came true. Edward Cullen walked in and told Coach Miller that his schedule had been changed and he was now in our gym class.

‘Damn in! The one class I had with Bella that he didn’t!’ He walked directly over to Bella and his sister and began to chat and laugh until Coach split us into teams for badminton. I was on a team with Edward facing Bella and Alice. Bella whispered something to Edward and he chuckled and whispered back.

After school I went directly to work. It was going to be boring today with no customers and having to work with Betty and not Bella. To my surprise, Bella walked in! “Hello,” she said quietly.

“Hi. What are you doing here? I thought Betty was supposed to be working.”

“Well, Betty is sick so I took her shift today and she took my Friday shift.”

“Oh, I better call Betty and wish her a quick recovery,” I said lamely. Like I said, there were very few customers. So instead I talked to Bella- a little.

“So, um… Bella, would you like to go to a movie this Saturday?”

“Oh,” she said, surprised. “Um… I’m sorry Mike, but um… I’m kinda going out with Edward right now. And-“

“He doesn’t want you to do anything with your friends while you’re his girlfriend?”

“No,” she responded, “um… it’s just we are going out that night,”

“So how about the next week?” I asked, still persistant.

“I can’t, I’m working.”

“Two weeks?” She had to run out of excuses soon right?

“Um…” she sighed. “Sure. I’ll see what I’m doing.”

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The next day, I held my head higher than usual. I also made a point of talking to Bella, in front of Edward, about our date. When I asked to confirm our date, she hadn’t thought of an excuse, so she said yes. ‘Finally! Bella is going out with me instead of Edward!’

I was so proud of myself, and by the look of it, made Mr. Perfect Cullen jealous! I finally won!

Bella’s POV

I hated Mike! He just said that we were going on a date! AND it was in front of Edward! I could tell that Edward was pissed. “Edward! It’s not like that! I don’t like Mike! I love you,” I tried to explain.

“Then why did you just say yes to going on a date with Mike?”

“I didn’t want to, but I had no excuse to get out of it!”

“Sure Bella,” he responded coldly.

“Listen,” I said, “he asked me out twice and I said no, but the third time I had no excuse.”

“What? Dating someone else isn’t enough?”

I sighed. “I used that excuse and he said it was just going to be two friends going to a movie. He wouldn’t take that excuse.”

“You know he wants you two to be more than just friends. Right?”

“Yeah, but it’s not going to go that far! I’m going to come up with an exuse right befire it.” He smiled at me, all of his previous anger gone.

“Thanks Bella.” He kissed my forehead and put his arm around my waist, walking me to class.
