EDWARD MY BEST FRIEND OR…
EDWARD MY BEST FRIEND OR…. MORE?
Edward and I have always been best friends for as long as I can remember he has also been a "ladies man" for as long as I can remember also. But he never really seemed interested in having any significant other. I couldn't deny the feelings I had toward Edward and I had always been secretly happy when he turned down the numerous girls that threw themselves at him. But I wasn't perfect enough to ever deserve him so I always blocked those feelings out and hid them deep down in my heart wishing that one day Edward and I would be more than just friends.
Just then I heard a horn honking outside interrupting my day dream that would be Alice and Edward coming to pick me up to go to school. I ran down the stairs and as usual tripped scrapping my hands on the bottom of the wood step
Shit I muttered. I quickly ran to the drawer in the kitchen where I kept a fist aid kit just incase I quickly cleaned up my hands and but band aids over the cuts
Come on Bella were going to be late if you don't hurry up. Alice yelled out the window.
Boy was she lying they drove like lunatics there was no way we were going to be late for school we'd probably end up 5 minutes early.
"Well good morning to you two Alice, hi Edward I said as I slid into the car.
Alice poked her tongue at me and Edward just chuckled
"Well hi to you to Bella". And with that we drove off to school and like I said we weren't late we were 6 minutes early ugh Alice can be such a drama queen sometimes. Alice walked over to her boyfriend Jasper they were so cute together me and Edward just sat on the bench talking about the new episode of prison break. Edwards and I were in a argument on if reality TV was really "reality" when the bell rang we walked to our first class we had most of our classes together as Edward walked in girls flirted with him as usual and a couple even slipped him notes. We finally reached our seats in the back me and Edward sat together in most of our classes the girls didn't like the fact that him and I were so close. But we were only friends and it would always be that way. After we sat down Edward started going through the notes girls gave him chuckling at some of them I hated when girls threw themselves at Edward I noticed on of the notes from the genetic popular Lauren Captain of cheerleading team I waited for him to open it but suddenly he seemed distracted opps I noticed him looking at my hands that sat in my lap, Edward was always making fun of me at how clumsy I was but no matter what he was always there to catch me.
"You see" I was beginning to explain when he stopped me mid sentence.
" No need Bella you've been my best friend for forever let me guess you were daydreaming and realized we were outside and tried to hurry and run down the stairs and tripped" He just sat their smiling crookedly.
"What ever" I said embarrassed as my cheeks turned tomato red.
"Does that mean I'm right? He asked. But before I could answer his hand brushed my cheek making me blush even more.
"Wow Bella I make you blush hmm I wonder" and with that said he grabbed my hand and intertwined it with his.
I was shocked by what he just did why was he acting like this? I was expecting him to let my hand go after a few seconds but instead he just moved my hand so it sat on his leg
I couldn't stop from blushing this made him smile even more.
"So I guess I do make you blush"
"Whatever Edward, it's just really hot in here" I said
"Yeah right you mean it's really hot between us" he smirked while saying this; I knew he was just joking.
"That's not what I meant" but that only caused me to blush more omg why did he have to affect me like this.
"Its okay Bella you can stop trying to explain I know what you meant" he smiled his crooked smile at me making my heart jump. Damn I hope he can't hear my heart beating.
"Yeah, Whatever", and with that said I removed my hand from his and focused all of my attention on class. After 40 minutes of sitting listening to Mr. Harris ramble on about something that happened in World War 1 and watching Edward and Lauren pass notes to each other the bell rang. Thank god, I really needed some time to think about what just happened so I decided to skip my next class. I quickly ran to my truck and turned on some music; music always helps me think and calms my nerves just then Taylor Swift Teardrops on my Guitar came on I think I finally get the meaning of the song
He's the reason for the teardrops on my guitar
the only thing that's keep me wishing on a wishing star
He's the song in the car I keep singing don't know why I do
The only thing I could come up with was that Edward was my best friend and that's all he'd ever be I not the type of girl Edward would fall in love with any feeling I felt for him I just had to ignore them and be happy that we were even friends. Boys like Edward always ended up with girls like Lauren and I know even though he'd never admit it that he has feeling for her I could tell because whenever she wrote him a note or flirted with him his face would instantly brighten.
I spent the rest of the period sitting in my car just listening to music and thinking about how I could possibly avoid spending so much time with Edward with out him feeling like I didn't want to be friends with him. I felt my phone vibrate it was Edward what did he want I picked up the phone but no one answered I just heard talking in the background I guess he didn't hang up his phone. I was about to hang up when I heard him and his friend Chad talking.
"Dude why do you keep calling bella, you act like you like her." Chad said
"She's my best friend I'm just worried" Edward said defensively
"I'm just saying you act like you like her as more than a friend."
Edward started to laugh, laugh how could he laugh at that.
"What makes you think I like bella she's not the type of girl I would date she's only my friend."
"Well it doesn't look that way to me you two are always together and you're always messing with her, I've head some of the things you guys talk about"
"Were best friends we always act like that I just mess with bella because I know she likes me and it's funny how she reacts when I tell her things, I don't have those kind of feeling for her." After he said that I hung up the phone. Stupid touch screen phones. I wanted to cry so badly but I wouldn't let Edward make me cry. How could he say that I know he was just saying we were friends but did he have to say it like that? I was sure now that it would be easy for me to avoid Edward whether it hurt him or not.
I checked my watch it was 2 minutes from lunch I got out of my car and headed into school. The bell rang just as I entered I was first in line I took advantage of this and quickly got my food and went to go eat in Mrs. Johnson class she was my second period teacher she always understood when I needed time to myself.
"Hi Mrs. Johnson, sorry something came up and I just needed some time to think" I said as I entered the class
"Hi Miss. Swan, don't worry just take a seat and I'll give you the notes from class. With that said I felt relived Mrs. Johnson was my favorite teacher she was always understanding.
I took the notes and finished eating my lunch I wondered if Edward noticed I wasn't in class today, probably not Lauren had this class with us I'm sure she kept him busy ugh how I wished I could make Edward feel the things she made him feel. I had to stop thinking about Edward as more than a friend I quickly blocked the thoughts I just had and finished eating my lunch. The bell rang and I got up said goodbye to Mrs. Johnson
"Bye Bella" she responded and I left the class. My next class was biology which I had with Edward this was my favorite class obviously because Edward and I had it together but even more because Lauren didn't have this class with us. But for some reason I kind of didn't want to face Edward right now, but I have no choice as I walked into class I noticed Edward was already sitting in the back at our table before I could even sit down he started questioning me.
"Where have you been I've been calling you and you just ignored my calls?"
"Ohh my phone must be on silent I said and just sat down not even caring that he was worried about me.
"I began to take out my notebook when I noticed Edward staring at me from the corner of my eyes
"What are you looking at?" I asked annoyed
"Are you mad at me" Edward asked almost feeling offended that I even talked to him like that
"No Edward" I said hoping he would leave me alone
"You seem like you are, but whatever I was wondering if you wanted to come over to my house tonight and watch movies with me and Alice."
"No I'm busy tonight, sorry."
"Oh so… um what are you doing" Edward said seeming curious.
"Just something's I need to take care of."
"Oh well can't you do that later, Alice will be disappointed if you don't come" Edward asked
I really didn't give a shit whose feeling I hurt right now and I damn sure didn't want to spend the entire day with Edward.
"No I can't" was all I said
"So where were you for second block and lunch?"
"I just needed some time to myself" will he just leave me alone, why doesn't he just go and find Lauren and talk to her. I really needed to pay attention so I just started to ignore Edward.
Mr. Donavan began to explain a new project we were working on he said to pick a partner
"So Bella I guess were pa-…. I quickly walked over to mike and asked if he wanted to work with me before Edward could finish his sentence I knew he would agree just then Edward walked up to me with a confusing look on his face
"I thought we were going to be partners?"
"Sorry I already asked mike and he said yes"
"But… I…I…I mean" Mr. Cullen can you please pick a partner" suddenly a bunch of girls rushed to his side. You could tell he didn't want to be bothered with girls drooling over him.
"Um Angela will you be my partner" asked Edward. Smart move he knew that Angela wouldn't drool over him.
"Um sure I guess Edward" Angela said.
"Thanks" Edward mumbled.
"Okay enough of this go back to work girls". said Mr. Donavan
I really wish everything was normal between me and Edward because I really didn't feel like working with Mike. I knew he liked me, he always asked me on dates and I felt bad every time I turned him down.
"So are you and Edward mad at each other or something" Mike asked out of nowhere.
"No not really I just really wanted to work with you." I said making mike blush at my tone of voice and the words I just spoke to him.
"Well I'm really happy you choose me as a partner" he said chuckling a little
It was easy working with mike he was a really cool person when he wasn't asking me out
Edward P.O.V
What's with Bella did I say something to her, why was she so mad at me? For as long as I can remember Bella and I have always worked together I can't believe she would rather work with Mike then me I was her best friend, right? Out the corner of my eyes I saw Mike and Bella talking it seemed more like flirting to me whatever I'm just overreacting there has to be a logical reason Bella doesn't want to work with me I'll ask her in gym class
B.O.V
I rushed out of the class to bad I would still have to see him in
Gym class I knew he would want to know why I chose to work with mike instead of him.
I walked into gym a changed quickly I had this class with Alice and of course Edward we had most of our classes together……just my luck I walked out the locker room and saw Alice
"What's up Bella, did Edward ask you to come over tonight?"
"Um yeah he did….. but I kind of already have plans tonight?
When I told Edward that I didn't actually have plans but after class Edward's friend Chad came up to me asked me out I didn't really want to but I said yes.
"Oh what kind of plans?"
"Well Alice I have a date?" I didn't really want to tell her
"O M G you do, do you know what this means MAKEOVER" Alice screamed
"No Alice please it's just a date I don't need a makeover"
"Isabella Marie Swan you will come to my house and do what I say"
For a small person Alice can be scary so just agreed not like I had a choice.
"Fine Alice"
"Yay omg this is going to be awesome"
"Yeah great"
Just then Edward walked up.
"hey, what's up?
He asked me more than Alice
"Nothing Edward but guess what Bella's going—
"Um Alice we need to go coach is calling us"
"Wait—"Edward yelled"
Alice and I walked over to the other side of the field. I avoided Edward for the rest of the class mostly cause we were playing all girl games so he couldn't try and talk to me I ran and changed and got to my truck before he could try and talk to me to bad I still had to meet Alice for my makeover great.
C.P.O.V
Today in school I asked Bella out I was happy to know that Edward didn't have feelings for her because I know I did she just so beautiful her eyes, her lips man I can't wait for tonight
Shit there's Edward I still don't know how he's going to act about me and Bella's date well whatever he doesn't like her I'll just tell him.
"Hey man what's up?"
"Nothing, um have you seen Bella?"
"Um no— no I mean why?
"Oh no reason I think she's mad at me or something" he said frustrated
"Oh"
"Yup oh Chad you want to come over tonight were having a movie night you could come chill"
"Sounds good, but I got plans tonight, sorry dude"
"Oh you going on a date" he said joking
"Yeah I am actually"
"Oh well who's the lucky girl or maybe she's unlucky"
"whatever man actually I'm going with Bella"
"Bella you mean Bella, my best friend" he said surprised.
"Yeah man well I got to go get ready for tonight"
"Yeah whatever"
E.P.O.V
Damn Bella ran and changed maybe she's in the parking lot I really need to talk to her
Maybe Chad knows where she is? I walked over to him
"Hey man what's up?"
"Nothing, um have you seen Bella?"
"Um no— no I mean why?"
Damn why is he so nervous what does he know
"Oh no reason I think she's mad at me or something" I say frustrated
"Oh"
What's up with him today seriously?
"Yup oh Chad you want to come over tonight were having a movie night you could come chill"
"Sounds good, but I got plans tonight, sorry dude"
"Oh you going on a date" I said joking he never dates anyone he says their not his type
"Yeah I am actually" oh well maybe someone is his type
"Oh well who's the lucky girl or maybe she's unlucky"
"Whatever man actually I'm going with Bella" did he just say Bella my best friend?
"Bella you mean Bella, my best friend" I said surprised. Please let him say he knows another Bella please
"Yeah man well I got to go get ready for tonight" crap.
"Yeah whatever" I can't believe he asked her out after what he did to me today— oh I guess that's why he did that to make sure I didn't like Bella why does it matter to me any way she just my friend my beautiful smart funny friend crap why did I tell him I didn't like her and now Bella won't even talk to me
