Bring It

Chapter 1

BPOV

Freshman year. Phoenix, Arizona.
"EDWARD, SHOOT THE SOCCER BALL!" I heard my older brother, Emmett; say to possibly my best friend ever, Edward Cullen.
"Yeah Edward, score before its Christmas, please, mum's making roast beef tonight and that's my favourite!" I whined.
"Bella, like you can score with your big bear of a brother in the way of the goals," Emmett looked at Edward, with confusion written all over his face, not understanding the meaning in Edwards words, then Emmett said playfully, "Oh you're gonna get it now, Eddie!"
Emmett then tackled Edward to the ground, and so their play fight began. Me, being Bella Swan, hated, not being included in any boy action, so I pounced on top of Emmett and joined in their little fight. I couldn't stand girls who fussed over the latest styles or who broke a nail, I hung out with all the boys, with the exception of Edward's sister Alice and Emmett's girlfriend Rosalie Hale, they understood me enough to know that I didn't understand all of that girlie crap, but were there for me when I needed them.

Emmett's phone then rang with whatever rock metal music he had for a ringtone and we all broke apart from each other "Hey Rose," Emmett said into the phone, with a small smile spreading across his lips, "hold on a sec Rose, I gotta say bye to the guys then I can talk somewhere private-bye Edward, Bella." Then he ran up to our house, slamming the door behind him, I definitely knew I didn't want to know what they were going to talk about, trust me, one day I overheard them talking, and it wasn't pretty, I was then pretty wise enough not to listen to any of his "talks" with Rosalie.

"Sooooo, what to do now Bells?" Edward asked me, his crooked smile showing, which left me stunned. Oh yeah. Did I tell you? I have a crush on my best friend Edward. Crazy, huh? I know.
"I dunno; kick the ball a bit for a while?" I was clueless on what to do; I just wanted to be around him. Ugh that sounded like a real girl.
"Sure." As he helped me up, a tingling shot went up my hand and through my arm, and I then had the crazy impulse to kiss him, and did just that. At first he responded, kissing me back then pushed me away saying, "What the hell are you doing, Bella?" Feeling shocked and rejected I stood up straighter and didn't say anything, after a few minutes of me looking into his emerald green eyes, I turned and ran away into the house. Renee, my mother, was the first to greet me that was when I told her I wanted to live with Charlie in Forks. I didn't speak another word to Edward, only speaking to my family, Alice, Rosalie and her brother Jasper.

Present Day. Phoenix, Arizona. Junior Year.

Here I am, back in Phoenix, you may wanna know why the move, huh? Charlie died. Of a heart attack. Long story short, I've changed. So now, I actually care about my appearance, meaning yes, I care if I break a nail now. I hang out with the girls now, we talk boys and the latest fashion, and oh boy would Alice be pleased! Don't get me wrong, part of the old me is still here, just the rest is taking a very temporary vacation.

So, where was I? Oh yes, here I am walking down the halls of Arizona State High School, feeling a strange feeling of déjà vu wash over me, I remember of all the pranks me and the boys used to play on all the girlie girls, the way Edward smooth-talked the girls into thinking that he actually liked them... No thinking about Edward, he shut you out a looooooooooooooooong time ago Bella, then a pang to my heart came thinking of how much I've missed him.

A guy came up to me, he looked familiar... "Hey, I'm Zack, you must be new here, do you need a tour guide....?" his question trailed off then he said, "do I know you from somewhere, I think we've met before?"
"Um, yeah, it's Bella, Zack, we used to be friends when we were freshmen," a smile crept onto my face as realisation came to his.
"Dude, you've changed, you're like wearing a skirt and wearing make-up shit, didn't you hate the stuff?" he asked, his eyes wandering over my appearance.
"Yeah, but people change I guess..."
"Oh boy, wait till Edward see's you now... wow just in luck, he's coming here now."
Oh God, please oh please don't help him remember me.
"Bella, is that you?" that velvety voice asked.
Oh shit. He saw me.
