Surprise:
EPOV:
I was having a very good dream, and it involved the beautiful woman who had been in my bed last night. I really wasn't ready to wake up, but I was forced to when the unmistakable sound of my sisters voice startled me.
"Edward!" Alice yelled at the top of her lungs. And let me tell you, for as small as Alice is she sure can get loud. Then I felt her pounce on me.
"It's good to see you too shortie!" I laughed as I opened my eyes. She giggled at the nickname.
"What are you doing home? You aren't supposed to be here for another two weeks!" "Yeah I convinced my professors to let me take my finals early. Alice can I ask you a question?"
"Yeah sure! Anything!" she said. "Why was there a freaking super model in my bed when I got home. You didn't need to get me a welcome home gift." She giggled, and I didn't understand what had been so funny. My question was perfectly logical.
"She's not a super model Edward, though she clearly could be if she wanted to. Who would have thought that our awkward little Bella could turn into such a beautiful woman?"
"Wait, that was Bella?"
The last time I had seen Bella she had been socially, physically, and emotionally inept. Now she wasn't physically awkward at least.
"Yep!" Alice said simply. Bella then walked into the room carrying a peanut butter and jelly sandwich.
BPOV:
I had just woken from one of the best dreams ever! Edward had come home, and told me he loved me then kissed me. I know only in my dreams right? But the sound was the thing that
had woken me up.
Alice's chiming voice had yelled in a squeak. "Edward!" Wait! Edward was home? I popped up out of bed and ripped the covers off. I ran my fingers threw my hair and took the stairs two at a time. Amazed I didn't fall coming down.
When I hit the bottom floor I walked quickly into the kitchen, and listened to Alice, Rose, and Edward's conversation.
"... I convinced my professors to let me take my finals early. Alice can I ask you a question?" Edward's melodic voice asked. I went week kneed just hearing it after having gone so many years without it.
Alice replied, "Yeah sure! Anything!" "Why was there a freaking super model in my bed when I got home? You didn't need to get me a welcome home gift." Wait was he talking about me? There was no possible way...was there?
Alice giggled, "She's not a super model, though she clearly could be if she wanted to. Who would have thought that our awkward little Bella could turn into such a beautiful woman." He was talking about me!!! I was so happy I had to busy myself with making a peanut butter and jelly sandwich so I didn't scream out in joy. Alice would get a kick out of this one.
"Wait that was Bella?" I heard Edward say after a short moment of silence.
"Yep!" Alice said very nonchalantly I walked out of the kitchen into the living room holding the sandwich. I leaned against the door frame and took a bite when Alice and Rose were looking, and tried to keep a straight face.
Alice and Rose burst into a fit of uncontrollable laughter, and soon Alice, Rose, and I were rolling on the floor. "What's so funny?" Edward yelled over us. I immediately stopped laughing, and Rose and Alice sat up. "Long story Edward!" Alice said wiping a tear of laughter away.
Then I remembered Edward sitting, well now standing in front of the couch watching us. Watching me.
"Bella." He said simply. I smiled up at him.
"Hey Edward, you're home early!" I said as if I didn't already know everything.
"Yeah my professors let me take the finals early. Wow you look absolutely amazing!" He said. Though his words were flattering I didn't let him see how happy they really made me.
"Thank you Edward!" I said winking. He looked utterly shocked. Not only had my appearance changed, but I had also gained more confidence.
"So does someone want to tell me why a peanut butter and jelly sandwich sent you all into hysterics for crying out loud!" Edward asked. Before any of us could answer Rose-who I hadn't seen exit the room-walked back in carrying another sandwich and launched it at Edward. Again we started bursting out laughing, and Edward looked furious.
"What was that for?!" Edward cried. "Sorry Edward, but I thought it was best to show you what was so funny!" Rose said as we both gave her high fives.
"I don't get it." Edward said, looking utterly confused.
"Come!" Alice demanded, and led him to her room. She opened her door, and I was surprised to find that the room was still covered with the mess we created last night. "What happened?" Edward asked, slightly appalled.
"Food fight!" I shrugged, then Rose, Alice, and I all began laughing hysterically again. Edward just shook his head and walked out of the room.
"What are you waiting for Bella? Follow him!" Alice said as I watched Edward walk away. I just smiled at her, and did as she told me.
"Edward!" I called. He turned and smiled at me.
"Hey Bella! What's up?" He asked.
"Nothing really, just wanted to catch up! I haven't seen you in forever!" I smiled up at him a little shyly.
"I know, the last time I saw you I was making fun of you for your frizzy hair!" He laughed.
"I never really did forgive you for that you know!" I joked right back.
"Yeah well I guess I did have a pretty big crush on you back then." He said then ducked his head, and it looked like he was blushing!
"Really?" I asked intrigued.
"Yeah, but you don't have to worry about that anymore, totally past that." He said, and my heart sank.
I gave my best fake smile and said, "Let's hope so. That might be a bit awkward when my boyfriend comes around."
"Wait, you have a boyfriend?" Was it just me, or did he sound disappointed?
"No, but I do have a pretty big crush on someone. I have for a while now." I said hoping to spark his interest and maybe make him a little jealous.
"And do I get to know this guys name, or is that just a big mystery that I have to solve on my own?" He laughed.
"Well if you really must know...never mind." I teased.
"Aw come on Bella, I just admitted that I had a crush on you as a kid! You can't tell me who you have a crush on now? I probably don't even know the guy I've been away for so long." Edward said.
"Oh trust me, you know him!" I said.
"Is it Mike Newton?" He asked. I looked at him like he was crazy.
"Really Edward? I couldn't even stand him as a kid. I thought you knew me better than that at least!" I exclaimed, and poked his stomach. His abs were really hard.
"Can't you just tell me, please?" And his eyes melted and stared into mine. "It's..." I was just about to tell him the truth when Alice, and Rose came bounding down the stairs.
"Bella, Bella, Bella!" Alice exclaimed.
"What? What? What?" I laughed back.
"You, Rose, and I are going...SHOPPING!!!" She screamed.
"Alice, someone has to clean up the mess that is your bedroom!" I said trying to get out of this. She pouted, but I could tell she knew that I was right.
"Bella, don't ruin this for me please! I really want to go shopping!" "How about this Alice. You and Rose go shopping. I will clean up your room, and you can pay me back with some
awesome outfits! You know my size!"
"I'll stay and help Bella." Edward said, then looked at me. "That is if you want it. You used to be stubborn about that stuff."
"No I will definitely need it!" I laughed. "Alright, so it's settled. Rose and I will go shopping while the two lovebirds stay here and clean!" Alice exclaimed with a devious grin. Then dodged my hand as I reached out to smack her.
"Rose let's go before I get hospitalized!" Alice laughed.
"See you!" I called after them then turned back to Edward. "Let me go get my cleaning clothes on, and we can get started." I said, then went to change.
EPOV:
I was sitting in Alice room waiting for Bella to get here, so we could start in on this terrible mess. I couldn't believe I had told her that I had a crush on her, and I really couldn't believe that I told her not anymore.
I was kicking myself when Bella walked in wearing a tattered tank top, and tight booty shorts. I just about had a heart attack then and there, and it took all my will power to tear my eyes away from her long creamy legs and look at her face. She was smirking at me.
"Like what you see?" She asked with a knowing grin, but also a bit sarcastically. I didn't know what to say so I just laughed.
"Alright it's probably going to take us all day to get this done, so we should get started now!" Bella said then bent down to pick up the trash bag in the middle of the floor. I know it was wrong of me to think about her like she was a piece of meat, but Bella's backside was beautiful! What can I say I'm a guy!
I shook my head, trying to clear it and went over to Bella. She had something that looked oddly like popcorn fused together with a marshmallow. "What is that?" I asked pointing to whatever it was that was in her hand. "Or do I even want to know?"
She laughed and said, "It's a pop-mallow! Trust me this probably isn't the strangest thing you are going to find in this room today."
"Lovely!" I said sarcastically. And picked up yet another pop-mallow. Bella just laughed at the disgusted look on my face.
"Did you guys really eat this?" "Ew! No, they worked better as projectiles!" She said laughing then threw some licorice at me. I let that one slide for now, because I was starting to feel a little nauseous from the smell.
"Bella, this is a brand new shirt! I really don't want to get it dirty!" I said as I stripped it off, and tossed it into the hall way. I went over to the window, pulled back the curtains, and opened the windows.
I felt my muscles flex and I hoped Bella had seen it. I was disappointed when I turned around and Bella was facing the opposite way stripping the bed of it's sheets.
Again Bella plus bending wasn't really good for me right now. I wasn't sure what to say so I just picked up the first item of whatever was lying on the floor-which happened to be a s'more-and threw it at her.
It hit her square on the butt, and she straightened immediately.
"Oh no you didn't!" She said turning back to me. I just smirked and nodded. She too smirked, but somehow it was more evil than mine. "You will pay for that!" She then scooped up what looked like silly string and hit me right across the face.
It was on then!
We used the remnants of whatever food was used last night for our own mini food fight. Finally Bella called it quits so we could get back to the task at hand. We finished cleaning two hours later, and plopped down on Alice's floor. Covered in a lot of things that I didn't want to know what it was.
"There's chocolate melting on my leg!" Bella stated looking down at her thigh. I don't know why I did it, but I bent down and licked up the chocolate. Bella's breathing hitched, and I was afraid I had done something wrong.
"Um I should probably go hop in the shower. I'm really...dirty?" Bella said then got up and sauntered out of the room. I was left, awestruck by her beauty for a good 30 minuets. I finally
decided that a shower was a good idea for me as well.
I went and got a towel out of the linen closet and put it in the downstairs bathroom. Then I realized I had nothing to change into, and all my clothes were up in my room. So I sprinted up to get some.
I tested my door do see if it was locked, and it wasn't. So I opened it wide, and stopped in my tracks at the sight before me.
BPOV:
I couldn't believe Edward had admitted to having a crush on me as a little kid! Every time I would say that to myself I would also think of how he said, not anymore. Well that was fine, because I would make him fall for me again! Starting with today!
I changed into my "cleaning outfit." Which really was just a tattered old tank top that I bought when I was in sixth grade, and a pair of booty shorts. I was willing to do anything to get Edward! Well almost anything.
I entered Alice's room where Edward was already seated on the bed. His eyes went directly to my legs when he realized I was there, but he was able to pull his head up to look at my face.
"Like what you see?" I asked smugly, but also a bit sarcastically, so he didn't think I was too full of myself. He didn't say anything just laughed.
"Alright it's probably going to take us all day to get this done, so we should get started now!" I said then bent down to pick up the trash bag in the middle of the floor. I could almost feel his eyes boring into my behind, and I couldn't bring myself to be angry or embarrassed.
I looked up as he approached me and looked at the object in my hand. "What is that?" He asked "Or do I even want to know?"
I just laughed and said, "It's a pop-mallow! Trust me this probably isn't the strangest thing you are going to find in this room today."
"Lovely!" He said sarcastically. And picked up yet another pop-mallow. I just laughed at the disgusted look on his face. "Did you guys really eat this?" "Ew! No, they worked better as projectiles!" I said laughing then threw some licorice at him. He-of course being a guy- complained about his shirt.
"Bella, this is a brand new shirt! I really don't want to get it dirty!" He said as he stripped it off, and tossed it into the hall way. I couldn't help but stare. His abs were perfect, and he was
the pure definition of sexy!
Then he went over to the window, pulled back the curtains, and opened the windows. I watched as each movement made his muscles flex. I was almost positive he was doing it to drive me crazy.
Well two could play at the game! I turned and bent over the bed and acted like I was taking off the sheets. I felt it when something sticky made contact with my butt. I knew it was sticky because it didn't bounce off like it should have, it just stayed there. It was probably a marshmallow of some kind.
"Oh no you didn't!" I said turning back to him. He just smirked and nodded. I too smirked, but I had learned from Alice how to truly scare someone, so mine was much more impressive.
"You will pay for that!" I said then scooped up what looked like silly string and hit him right across the face. It was on then! We used the remnants of whatever food was used last night for our own mini food fight.
Finally I called it quits so we could get back to the task at hand. We finished cleaning two hours later, and plopped down on Alice's floor. Covered in everything that was used in last nights food war.
"There's chocolate melting on my leg!" I stated looking down at my thigh. Edward laughed, but then leaned down and licked to chocolate off my leg. My breathing hitched and my heart started beating wildly. I couldn't believe what had just happened. "Um I should probably go hop in the shower. I'm really...dirty?" I said then got up and tried to be as graceful as I could as I walked out of the room.
I went and got a towel. Then went back into Edward's room, got my shampoo and conditioner out of my bag, and went to Edward's bathroom.
The shower calmed my nerves a bit and it felt amazing after a long day of cleaning. Eventually the hot water started to run out, so I turned off the water, and stepped out and wrapped up in a towel.
I ran it through my hair then wrapped it around my body, and stepped out into Edward's room where my clothes were. I dropped my towel just as I heard the door knob click open. I froze where I was, too shocked to even remember that I needed to wrap myself back up in the towel.
"Oh my gosh Bella I'm..." Edward began to say, but didn't finish his sentence. I covered myself as sufficiently as I could with my hands and turned to face him. I still couldn't remember to put the towel back around me.
Edward was standing there staring at me. Wide eyed, but he couldn't turn away. He looked like he couldn't speak if he tried. His eyes just made their way up and down my almost completely exposed body.
"Edward, could you um, get out for a sec while I change please?" I asked. He just nodded, but didn't budge an inch. He was still just staring at me. I counted to 50 before I spoke again. "Like nowish?" Again he just nodded.
"EDWARD!!!" I yelled after I counted to 50 yet again. That seemed to break him out of his trance.
"Oh my gosh Bella! I'm so sorry! I...I..." He stuttered before turning and walking out the door. I dressed quickly after that, bright red, and dreading seeing Edward again.
Alright, so what did you all think? Personally we liked it, but IDK about all of you ha ha. So you might want to let us know if you all did to with this little thing we like to call a review, and we promise we'll have more chapters coming soon. But right now it's late, and we need our brains firing on all pistons if we are going to write anymore. So review while you wait, and it will make the time go by A LOT quicker.
