Chapter 1: The Green Eyed Guy
I walked into Home Depot and made my way to the section of colors. My name is Isabella Marie Swan but I prefer Bella. Recently a fire occurred killing both my foster parents. In their will I had gotten 1,000 dollars. I had already got an apartment and I had little furniture. That's why I was here. I was also here because the walls of my apartment needed a new color. I stared at the colors hard; trying to figure out which one would look good with beige. "JESUS CHRIST WHICH ONE GOES WITH BEIGE?!" I yelled out in frustration. "Maybe the grey would look good with it Ma'am." Said a velvety voice. I shrieked in surprise and jumped up at the same time causing me to fall on my butt. Luckily the store was quite empty. I looked up and saw him. His green eyes stuck out and my eyes were glued to them. "I'm sorry for scaring you." He said apologetically reaching his hands out to help me up. I took his hands and stood up. I pulled my hands away when an electrifying shock buzzed through my hand. I gazed at this guy for a moment. He had brown messy bronze hair, green emerald eyes, a crooked grin, and a muscled body. I swallowed hard and saw him smirk. "It's okay. I'm Isabella Swan. But I prefer Bella." I said cleaning off some dirt from my pants. "Well Hello then Bella. My name is Edward Cullen as you could see." Edward said pointing to his shirt where a name tag was tagged. I nodded courteously and glanced at his abs. Does he work out? I thought wondering what his abs would look like under that orange shirt. I was shaken out of my thoughts when Edward spoke. It took me a second to notice that Edward had said my name. Butterflies flooded into my stomach and I saw his perfect full lips move. I shook my head and tried to focus on what he was saying rather than his lips.

I smirked when I saw her swallow hard. I let my eyes glaze over this unique woman. She had brown curly hair, brown chocolate eyes, pink full lips, and a slim body. "It's okay. I'm Isabella Swan. But I prefer Bella." She said in a sweet innocent voice. "Well Hello then Bella. My name is Edward Cullen as you could see." I said pointing dumbly to my name tag. Bella nodded and she had her eyes glued to my abs. "Do you need help with anything?" I asked. Her eyes went to my lips and she shook her head. "Sorry. What did you say?" Bella said a blush in her cheeks. "Do you need-"I was about to repeat my question when Tanya was yelling my name at the far end of the aisle. "EDDIE I NEED YOUR HELP!!" Tanya yelled in her usual high-pitched voice. I sighed and looked at a sad Bella. "I'll see you around then." Bella said giving me a fake smile. It pained me to see her so sad. I grabbed her arm right when she turned. "Can I at least have your number?" I said feeling an electric current run through my body when my hand touched her arm. Whoa when did I get that much confidence? , I thought shocked. "Sure." Bella said taking out her phone. I quickly pulled out my Envy touch and made a new contact. "Here's my number." She said showing me her phone number through her Envy 3. I smiled and quickly wrote in her number. "It's in. I'll text you later?" I said hopefully. "Okay. Bye Edward." Bella said and turned around walking past Tanya. Tanya snapped something at her and I saw red. No one should talk to Bella that way! I jogged over to where Tanya was and Bella left quickly without even looking at me. I gritted my teeth. "Eddie you should leave the poor girl alone." Tanya said her hand touching my chest. I slapped her hand away and spoke very harsh. "Why don't you leave me alone Tanya?" I said venom leaking in my voice. I didn't wait for her to answer I walked out the exit and got into my Volvo.
