August
Age:
Edward: 16

Bella POV
Breathe in
And out
In again Bella
I looked at the corner of my eye to Edward.
He was shoveling popcorn in his mouth like he hadn't eaten.
And we just ate pizza.
He grabbed another handful of popcorn from the bowl in between us.
"Edward?"
Why does my voice suddenly sound so sweet?
"Mmmm?" He answered not looking away from the screen. We were watching The Matrix trilogy. Today was our movie day. Or as he calls it "Popcorn date"
Ha!
As if he would allow this to be a date.
I'll admit that I am attracted to my best friend. I've seen the girls look at him. I know how unbelievably handsome he was.
Sigh
Just ask him already!
"Have you ever been kissed?" Did I just blurt that out? I could feel the blood rush to my cheeks. Please, oh please you did not hear it Edward!
I closed my eyes, chanting, that he did not hear it.
"Huh?" I opened my eyes and looked at him. He looked at me with eyes wide, mouth full of popcorn; his right hand paused in front of him, also filled with popcorn.
"Nothing Edward" I looked at the screen and reached for the popcorn.
He raised the bowl of popcorn out of my reach as he looked at me. After swallowing the popcorn in his mouth he finally spoke.
"No, tell me what you said Bella" He furrowed his eyebrows together, his lips in an adorable pout.
I let out a loud sigh.
I can't resist that.
"I was just wondering.."
I looked down at my lap. Trying to braid my fingers together. I almost had it but then Edward nudged his knee to mine.
"I was just wondering.. If.. You know.." I could feel my palms sweat.
"Go on Bella" He encouraged, setting the bowl to the coffee table.
"If you've ever been kissed?" I must look stupid right now.
I looked at his face, waiting for a reaction.
He cleared his throat, then sitting up straight.
"Uh.. Why'd you ask?" His head tilted to the side.
"I'm just curious.." My fingers started to tangle themselves again.
"Oh" Oh? That's it?
"Well have you?" I used my index to poke his side.
"Uh, yeah I guess so.." He has?!
"You have?! How do I not know this?" That's a shocker!
He leaned to grab some popcorn. I slapped his hand away and he pulled back immediately.
"What the hell Bella!" he said as he cradled his hand to his chest.
"Tell me what happened! Who was it? What did it feel like?" I bounced slightly. I was excited that at least one of us has done it. I'm just a bit disappointed that he didn't tell me.
"I don't want to talk about it" He leaned back to the couch.
"Why not?" I started poking him.
"Quit it!" He said as he poked back.
"Come on Edward. Tell your best friend what happened" I cooed.
He grabbed my hand to prevent me from poking him. He was surrendering!
"Remember when Emmett, Jasper and I went to Lauren Mallory's thing last, last week?"
"Yeah! Emmett wouldn't shut up when he went to 2nd base with Jessica. They were playing spin-the-" My eyes grew wide. I raised my hand pointing my index finger to him.
"You got to 2nd base?!" I couldn't help it. I could just imagine Edward poking Jessica Stanley's boob with his finger.
"No! Just stop it or else I wont tell you!"
I clapped my hand to my mouth, forcefully stopping my laughter.
He let a sigh then started
"We were playing spin-the-bottle. But it wasn't like we had to kiss in front of everyone. Who ever partnered up went to the closet for 7 minutes. So, when I spun the bottle, it landed on Tanya Denali."
Hold up
Okay, so this Tanya Denali has become the wet dream of every boy in my age group. When she got home from cheerleading camp, she came back with C cups, make-up and a mini skirt. Who the hell grows boobs in 2 months?!
Edward cut through my thoughts on Tanya Denali's boobs
"So we went inside the closet. I just barely closed the door when she attacked me with her tongue!"
I let out a loud snort. I silenced myself with my hand again.
I nodded my head and used my eyes as if to tell him to go on.
He glared at me for a while before continuing.
"She put her tongue in my mouth then started wiggling it."
He shuddered slightly
This is hilarious!
"I just stood there until she finished"
He covered his face with his hands before looking at me.
"Go on Bells, laugh it out"
So I did. I was gasping for air after 3 minutes of continuous laughter.
"Edward! That wasn't a kiss! That was an assault!" I laughed again.
"I didn't know what to do!" He was suddenly defensive.
After a while my laughter died down.
He waited for me to stop laughing before his eyebrows rose up, realizing something.
"Have you kissed anyone Bella?" Okay he just totally killed my laugh trip.
I glared at him before looking at the T.V. screen.
"No" I muttered.
He chuckled.
"At least I got to kiss someone!" Was he proud of a tongue wiggle?!
I looked at him then stuck out my tongue to him before wiggling it.
"Bella!"
Ha!
"Why are you asking anyway?" He sounded serious
"It's just that-" Don't tell him Bella! Don't!
I stopped talking
"Come on tell me" He pouted.
Must resist
"I want to learn how to kiss"
And learn how to resist that pout
Before I could continue..
"Why?! Is Newton offering to teach you?! Or Yorkie?! I'll make sure those shit heads don't talk to you again! I smash is face-"
"Edward-"
"I'll teach you how to kiss! Don't even acknowledge Newton or Yorkie or any guys for that matter!"
Please good lord let him teach me.
"Stop it Edward"
Then I was trying to calm him down. He was always in the mood to beat up Mike Newton or/and Eric Yorkie when he had a reason to. I lost count on how many times I've seen Edward throw a punch at them when he said, "They were molesting me with their eyes"
What's there to molest me with?
I knew how small my breasts were and how skinny I was. I knew I was a late bloomer. I haven't even gotten my period yet. I looked like a boy when I stood beside Tanya Denali. The only girlish thing I had was my hair.
"I just want to know how to kiss in case someone wants to kiss me."
He huffed, finally calming down.
"I just don't want boys kissing you. You know that would lead to touching, then that would lead to sex!" Edward, you are worse than my father.
Light bulb!
"So you're saying that I should kiss girls?" My right eyebrow rose. I could feel my lips smile.
He looked at me as if I had 2 heads and then his face changed. It went from "Are you crazy!" to "That would be a great idea".
He smirked at me then opened his mouth to say something.
"No Edward! I wont kiss a girl in front of you!" I lightly slapped the corner of his mouth
Soft lips
Stop it Bella!
"Hey! You put the idea in my head"
"Fine. But would you mind if I ask Jasper or Em-"
"No!" he grabbed both of my shoulders forcing my body to face him.
"Come on. Just close your eyes"
As long as you kiss me Edward
"Why?!"
"Just do it Bella"
And so I did. I felt his hands grip loosen on my shoulder. His right hand glided up to the back of my neck and then felt being pulled forward softly.
He's going to kiss me!
It felt like forever before I felt his breath on my lips
And then, I swear I heard the choir of angels sing as the clouds opened up.
His lips were soft and warm. The tingling sensation from my lips spread all over my body.
I felt his lips part then sucked my bottom lip softly. My lips parted and a sigh escaped.
Oops
I think he liked that
His left hand slid down to the small of my back and then he pulled me closer.
I rested a hand to his chest and the other one was caressing the hair at the nape of his neck.
I felt his tongue taste my lower lip.
That felt good!
But just as I was about to taste him, he pulled back.
I waited a few minutes before I opened my eyes.
He looked at me differently.
He looked as if he wanted to do it again.
He cleared his throat
"Now you don't have a reason to look for a boy"
What?
"What?"
He sighed as he grabbed my hand
"You're my best friend Bella. I enjoy your company and we have a lot of similarities. I don't have a reason to find a girlfriend. YOU don't have to have a boyfriend."
His eyes pleaded for me to agree.
"Bella, forget what-"
Stop him!
"No I understand Edward. Keep going"
He smiled. I can't help it.
I smiled back
"I want us to be always be together. In what ever we do. We'll learn together, everything! No one should come between us. We'll be single but we'll have each other"
We both want it. Our bodies want it.
I want it.
"I want that too Edward"
"Promise to never leave me Bella?"
I promise Edward
"I promise Edward" I leaned forward and pressed my lips to his. His hand held the back of my neck. Not letting go. Never letting go.
That night, our lips molded, our tongues danced and our promises were sealed.
With a kiss.
