Chapter 2- YOU HAVE GOT TO BE KIDDING ME!

Edward POV.

High school was an entire waist of my time, especially for someone who has been to college several times. The only good thing about it was that I got to spend time with Bella. I had just finished my last class and went to go meet Bella outside of her class. On the way I caught a glimpse of Alice's thoughts and decided that I needed to make a detour and see her.

"Alice what's wrong?" I asked as I approached. Her face looked troubled by something,

"I can't tell. I keep seeing something there's lights and noise but other than that I can't tell what it is. It's like someone keeps changing their mind about something." She looked almost tired. Or as tired as a vampire could look I guess.

"Well if you figure it out let me know." I asked with concern, this could be something big, or small but we must take precautions.

"Ok, you heading to Bella's for the afternoon?"

"Ya were going to work on some homework and then I'm going to bring her over to our house."

"I will call Charlie and see if she can spend the night. It is Friday and I can tell him that you are going camping with Carlisle, Emmett and Jasper."

"Great idea Alice I'm sure she would love to come over after being grounded for so long." My poor Bella Charlie had grounded her for coming to Italy to save me from myself. She had just been released from her grounding yesterday. I felt so bad that I had gotten her in trouble, but she said that she would do it again and to shut the hell up. I knew she would do anything for me just like I would do anything for her. In a way we are both equal, we would do whatever it takes for the well being of the other.

"Ok I will see you at the car then."

I left Alice to go find my angle. She was waiting right outside her class room door. Her heart beat was very fast. This worried me, but as soon as she saw me her heart went back to normal. I felt a stab of guilt. She had been afraid that I had left again during the last class. I could see what I had done to her by leaving and I knew that I would regret it for the rest of my life. This may be a very long time. I will never in my god forsaken life forgive myself, its my fault she practically fell into a depression, because I was idiotic thinking that Love can be forgotten, earased, pulled off like a band-aid.

"Hello love." I greeted her.

"Hi"

"Sorry I took so long I ran into Alice."

"That's ok, are you ready to leave?"

"Ya lets go."

I followed her to her car. Due to her grounding I had not been allowed to bring her to school. Since today was her first day of freedom we decided that we would wait till Monday before I returned to bringing her to and from school. We did not want to make Charlie any angrier than he had been. I had never in my existence seen a man change into so many colors…

"Are you coming over today?" She asked.

"Only if you want me too."

"Of course I want you to."

"Ok let me drop off everyone at the house and I will meet you there. After we are done with our homework do you want to come over to my house? Esme really misses you."

"Ya I have not been able to see everyone in forever." I could not help but laugh at her.

"Oh shut up Edward it's not that funny, you got to see your family while I didn't..."

"Sorry love but it was cute. And heads up Alice is going to check if you can spend the weekend with us is that ok?"

"Edward I love being at your house of course I want to." She was beautiful at any time of the day but when she was irritated she was just downright sexy.

"Fine then I will see you at your house in 10 min." I gave her a kiss goodbye and went to my car. Everyone was there waiting so we took off to home as soon as I got in the car. I could not wait to be with my Bella again and I drove a little faster than I normally did. In 2 min I was pulling up to the house.

"I will see you guys later ok." I told them.

"See you Edward." Said Rose.

"Say hi to Bella for me." Jasper requested.

"Don't forget to tell her that all she needs is her toothbrush Edward I have everything else her waiting for her."

"Got it Alice." I responded.

"Try and not break her Eddie, I do like having a klutz as a sister. It keeps life interesting." Emmett yelled as he left for the house. I wanted to though something at him but I was in my car and I was not going to be able to get Rose to put it back together if I through it at Emmett so I ignored him.

"Edward" I heard Esme call from her room "ask Bella what she wants for dinner and I will pick it up for her please."

"No problem Esme." With that I backed out of the drive and headed to Bella's.

About halfway there I heard Charlie's thoughts. He was really happy about something but sad at the same time. I was confused till I saw the lights of the police car flash behind me. I pulled over and waited for Charlie.

"Good afternoon Chief Swan" I greeted him. I needed to hurry and get to Bella. "What can I do for you?"

"I need you to follow me to the station Son."

"What for?"

"Well you are under arrest." What? What for?

"May I ask why?"

"I will explain when you get there, look I can handcuff you and make you ride in the back of the curser but I thought you might be willing to come rather easy. Especially if you ever want to see my daughter again."

"Fine I will follow you there." As he went back to his car I saw that I was in a lot of trouble. Dam radars, I did not know Forks had gotten any. They had caught me the night Alice had seen Bella walking down the stairs and trip. She would have hit her head and have needed to go to the hospital. I drove as fast as my car would go that night. The irony was that Charlie was arresting me for saving his daughter from a trip to the ER. All that I could say was "You have got to be effin kidding me."
