Chapter 2
BPOV
I walked out of that class in a daze. I can't believe I just acted like nothing happened. I'm supposed to hate him and I was joking like we were old buddies. I looked at the number in my hand. It said Alice above it, but another was below it. It said Edward. I took my phone out and added the numbers. I was reluctant to add Edwards.
After I added the numbers, I texted Alice quickly. I was excited to talk to her again.
Alice, it's Bella Swan. I got your number from Edward.
It was only a matter of seconds before I got a reply. It's very likely that she saw me text her and already had the message ready though.
AHHHHH!!!! wait...whered u see Edward??? he bought me a car to not see you, so I'm WAY out of the loop!
Apparently she didn't see me. Stupid vampire speed...
He's my Biology teacher...i was rude to him, and had to stay after class, but with my broken leg, i tripped and fell 1 flight of stairs, er, well, i would've. he caught me...
This is when I wish she had been seeing me this whole time. Alice is the person who needs to know everything. Including what I was wearing, and if I matched.
i knew he was gonna be a teacher, but urs??? howd u break ur leg?
Ok, that's it...
Had a nightmare, fell out of bed. Same leg as b4, so it probly wouldnt have broken if not...I GIVE YOU PERMISSION TO BEGIN 'SEEING' ME AGAIN
Ha, now I don't have to tell her everything.
lol, ok, so, tomorrow, Edward is making you stay after school again, said you were rude, but thats not why. sry 'bout ur leg!
After I read that, I got all fuzzy inside. I want to see her...
Where do you live?!?!?
We live in a house by the woods near the college...Edward picked it...something about an overabundance of mountain lions???
I smiled, she doesn't live far.
Directions?
From the college, which is where you are :)...go down to the red river and follow the current. u, being as observant as u are will miss the house though, so just follow the river and i'll meet u soon!!! can't wait!
I looked for the river and saw a sign pointing to it. I followed the sign and the river wasn't exactly a river, more like a cliff with a tiny blue squiggly line about 30ft. down. I gulped before realizing I had jumped that far before. After I went cliff diving, my dad decided I needed to see some sun, and friendlier waters where I could cliff dive without getting a concussion, so he sent me to Jacksonville.
I didn't know which way the current went, so I just guessed. The penny, heads for left, tails for right, told me to go right, so I did. I had been walking five minutes and no sign of Alice. Although, five minutes on crutches didn't get me too far. I was hobbling along and knowing me, the person who could trip over a ladybug, I tripped over a ladybug. Instead of hitting the ground, one again, I felt a pair of cool arms encircle my waist. I looked up into his face and smiled a bit.
"I seem to be spending quite a bit of time here today," I smiled.
"Where? In my arms," he asked. I felt myself turning red.
"Don't worry, you're just vertically challenged," He joked.
"I'm not that short!," I protested.
"I meant that in the sense that you can't remain vertical," He laughed. My face was burning.
"What are you doing out here?" he asked walking in the direction I was going.
"I was going to vis-," I started.
"BELLA!!!," I heard a loud, excited voice scream. "I see you ran into a small complication."
I looked and saw Alice running over. "Alice!" I yelled gaily struggling to get down. I think the big black boot on my foot hit Edward a few times, but he can't feel it, so oh, well.
"Edward, put me down," I tried prying his fingers off my waist. "Please."
"Fine," He said smiling. If only I could read his mind, I could see what he was really thinking.
EPOV
I don't want to put her down. I let go once, and it was the biggest mistake ever. When I saw her in class today, I wanted so badly to go kiss her and tell her I was sorry.
"Please," She said.
I smiled reluctantly and set her on solid ground.
"Don't fall again, solid ground doesn't seem to do you much grace," I joked wishing she was still in my arms.
I looked at Alice and she looked to be in a trance-like state. She was having a vision. She shook out of it quickly though and smiled at Bella and I.
"Alice, what did you see," I asked.
"Nothing of any importance at the moment," She smiled.
"Alice!" I demanded.
"How do you know it'll even come true, half the stuff I see doesn't. When you left, I saw Bella marrying Jacob, saw her depressed and trying to kill herself, and I saw her in Italy saving you from dying," She said angrily. "And NONE of that stuff happened."
Wow, I guess vampires have PMS...
"Alice, please, if it's anything like that," I begged.
"It's not, it's good, but I'm afraid it might make Bella more reluctant," She said careful about what she said.
Wait, I can read her mind!
I can't tell them that I saw them getting marri---EDWARD, GET OUT OF MY HEAD
I heard all I needed to. I felt a huge smile on my face and looked at Bella. The frustrated look on her face was priceless.
"AHH, am I the only one who doesn't even get to cheat to find out what's going on," she yelled exasperated.
"I'll tell you later," I promised.
"And Alice, I thought I told you to stop looking up stuff about Bella," I raised my eyebrow.
"She gave me permission to forevermore," Alice smiled.
"Prove it," I challenged.
She took out her phone and showed me the text. I rolled my eyes.
"Fine, you win, this time," I said.
"Bella!" Alice suddenly yelped.
"Alice," Bella mocked her.
"Let's go SHOPPING!," she screamed jumping up and down.
BPOV
I sighed.
"Alice, I'm in college, I have to save my money, I cant afford to go shopping," I groaned.
"Bella, do you not remember me," she asked appalled. "Even in Forks, I bought all your clothes."
"No you didn't," I reminded her.
"Yes, I did. With my ability, I was able to get you bank info, and when you thought Charlie was adding money, it was me!" she jumped in glee.
"Alice," I griped. "I hate when people buy me stuff."
"Well, I love when I buy people stuff, so let's go," she said pulling my arm lightly.
I didn't budge.
"Bella, just remember, I can pick you up," She said. I sighed and followed after her looking back at Edward and making the shoot-me sign. He took his phone out and made the motion of texting. I gave him a thumbs up.
I looked at Alice's car. It was a yellow Porsche.
She pushed me in and before I could even buckle, sped off down the driveway.
A/N
Just remember with Alice's Porsche, after Bella went to Florida, everything else changed, so no Italy, so no grand theft auto, it was just a car she wanted.
