Chapter 2! Here we go!

This story is rated M, but there won't be any lemony-lemonness for a while. But i'll keep it M for the language.

I forgot to mention it in chapter 1, but I don't own Twilight. Obviously.


"You somehow manage to make a complete fool of yourself, no matter where we go. Seriously, can t take you anywhere." Rosalie said, as they crossed the street, making their way home. "They probably think you were dropped on your head continuously as an infant."

Bella hadn't said a word since they left the Cullens. Since Edward told Bella he would see her on Monday. Wait? Did Bella have a thing for Edward? She did notice them staring at each other while they were all chatting, but didn t really think anything of it. He was undeniably gorgeous, or as her best friend put it forty different kinds of hot . But Rosalie wasn't interested, she was so completely happy with Emmett. But Bella, on the other hand, had only ever been on 3 dates, never seemed to be interested in any of the boys in town, until now that is.

"So, what are we doing tonight then?" Bella asked, as they sat on the swing on Rosie s front porch.

"How about the movies? We haven t been in so long, and i ve been dying to see that new Ashton Kutcher one."

"Sounds like a plan. As long as Emmett isn t going, i m there." Bella replied. As much as she loved Emmett, there was no way she was going to be a third wheel at the movies. Again.

"Don't worry, Bellypop. He s going to visit his grandma tomorrow, so he has to leave early in the morning." Rosalie knew that Bella didn t mean any offence. "Just some girl time for us." She said with a smile.

"Right, i'm gonna go get a shower and get changed, 'cause i smell like greasy food. I'll see if my dad will let us borrow the car, otherwise we'll be walking." Bella said as she got up off the bench and made her way down the steps. "Just call over when you re ready, i ll be waiting. She turned and smiled at her friend, who was now making her way into the house."

Yep, Rosalie thought, there was definitely something up with her friend.

"EDWARD!" Alice roared, as she flitted upstairs, "LET'S DO SOMETHING! I'M BORED!"

It had always amazed Edward a voice so loud could come out of something so small. She barged into his room, without so much as a knock on the door. He was just finishing unpacking the last of the boxes, and finally, his new room looked somewhat normal, well, it would when he put all the cardboard boxes in the trash.

"Edward, let s do something. I'm bored already", she complained as she sat down on the neatly made bed. She loved her brother, she really did, but he already had his bed made less than 14 hours after they arrived? Strange.

"How about we go discover our new hometown? Or have you other plans?" she asked sarcastically. They both knew well that they didn t know anybody else, well, apart from those two girls they met earlier. Alice liked them already, she knew they would be friends.

"What was up with you and Bella earlier?" she asked, noticing that her brother was turning a deep shade of pink.

"What?" he asked, turning his back on her. He could feel the blood burning in his cheeks.

"Umm, the fact that you were staring at her with this odd look on your face?"

"I don t know what you re talking about. Let s go out. Do you want to go to the movies? , he asked, desperately trying to change the subject. Sure, Lets go. Alice knew that she wasn t going to get any further with this matter now, but she would not forget to ask him later on. This was absolutely going to be talked about, even if he didn't want to.

Bella really shouldn't be driving in this state. Since she seen the Cullen family *ahem, Edward* earlier, she felt like her world had been given a slight kick up the ass. She was in a dreamlike state, and hadn t even had a proper conversation with him, except for her rambling. He was beautiful. Sinfully so almost. She just wanted to run her hands through his hair and...

"Hello? Bella, are you even listening to me?" Rosie said, snapping her out of her daydream.

"Sorry Rosie, what were you saying?"

"I was saying that it s been ages since you went out. On a date. With a boy."

Bella knew instantly what she was up to. Her best friend knew her better than anyone and could read her like an open book. Bella just had to play it cool. If Rosalie was fishing for info, Bella knew she would get it out of her eventually, but not right now, it was all too new in her head. And she didn t need Rosie pushing her on Edward when she didn t even know if he was interested.

And why would he be, he met me 5 minutes ago, and I acted like a lunatic, her inner voice said.

"Yea, I know. But what can you do?"

"I'm just saying you should get out there a but more. Never know what's waiting for you." she said, and Bella could hear the smirk in her voice.

How in the hell had this happened? Bella thought to herself.

She was ready to kill Rosalie. The movie theater was really busy, everyone and their brother had turned out tonight, to see the new Ashton Kutcher movie. When they finally reached the desk to buy their tickets, they turned around, and standing behind them was Edward and Alice. Bella didn't know where to look, she was still so embarrassed from earlier.

They made their way to the screen, and Alice and Rosalie ran on ahead, claiming they wanted to get the best seats.

Which left Bella and Edward alone to follow suit. She could hardly run after her best friend and beat her to death, in public anyways. She had a whole other plan for when they got back into the car.

"So, Edward, are you liking Forks so far?" she asked. She knew she had to say something. They couldn't just walk in silence.

"Yea, it's okay so far." he replied. He turned to look at her, and could hardly breathe. She was so beautiful. He just wanted to grab her and kiss those pouty lips, until she was gasping for air, and so much more. Her epic fail at an introduction made her all that more appealing. He felt a bit nervous around her, and he never felt nervous around girls. Back in New York, he was never short of female attention. The vibration of his phone snapped him out of his daydream.

There's no four seats together. Sorry E ;)

That damn pixie. Probably planned this.

He took a glance at Bella, who had just pulled her phone out of her pocket and was more than likely reading the same thing.

"Shall we?" he asked, with butterflies in his stomach. Grow a pair, man. Butterflies? Who you trying to kid with this shit.

She looked up at him through those long eyelashes of hers, and he could feel the stirrings in his pants.

"Yea, sure, let's go." she replied quietly with a smile.

They walked together in a comfortable silence, neither of them knowing what to say, and Bella was trying desperately to keep a hold of her verbal filter. H wanted nothing more than to put his arm around her, anything just to touch her, even in the most innocent of ways.

Thankfully as they walked side by side into the screen, the lights had dimmed, and the movie was just about to start. She followed him into the row that had 2 seats free. As she sat down beside him, she could feel her heartbeat slightly faster.

She was trying desperately to concentrate on the film, but didn't have a clue what was going on in front of her, when she felt him graze her hand on the arm rest with his fingertips. It was the lightest touch. She stole a glance up at him, and she was caught up in his green eyed stare back down at her. Then he pulled at her hand, so that the palm was facing up, and took it in his, all while never breaking eye contact. He needed to know that this was okay for him to do, and she smiled back at him, silently letting him know that it was okay indeed, it was more than okay. He smiled back the biggest smile, which lit up his whole face even in the dark.

They sat holding hands for the rest of the movie.


Okay! That's chapter 2! Chapters are going to be a bit short until I decide where i'm going with this.

Let me know what you think!
