And yes, Edward takes part in this chapter, tehe.

Enjoy!


Alice treated us to breakfast the next morning. Rose and I tried to tell her we could pay for our own food but, I have to tell you, there's no use arguing with Alice. She always won.

"I hope you don't mind but, I invited my boyfriend, Jasper to come along with us." She smiled shyly.

"I don't mind at all, do you rose?"

"Nope not at all. I'm excited to meet him actually!"

Alice ranted about Jasper during breakfast. She talked about how they met, how long they've been dating and all the 411 on their relationship.

From the sounds of it, he sounded pretty cute. "Same here." I smiled at her.

"Great, he's meeting us outside the mall enterance." Alice ran to the tall blonde haired boy waiting at the enterance. She threw her arms around him as he swept her up and kissed her on the lips. He put her down and looked at us.

"Hey," He reached out his hand for us to shake. "I'm Jasper Hale."

"Bella Swan." I greeted him.

"Rose Swan."

"Ah, the mysterious sisters and roomates Alice has told me about."

"Yep, that's us." I chuckled.

"Well come on guys! I heard there was a massive sale!" Alice grabbed all of our hands and dragged us in. Note to self: Do not under-estimate the pixie.

The mall was twice as big than any mall we've been to. Alice was right, there was a massive sale. Stores were filled with crowds of people, there was hardly any space to breathe!

"Where should we go first?" I asked.

"How about Abercrombie & Fitch?" Alice suggested. She knew me too well. Abercrombie was one of my favourite stores on the list.

We all nodded in agreement and followed behind her.


4 and a half hours later we walked out of the mall with more than 5 bags in our hands. Shopping with Alice was twice as fun. Her taste in fashion was very impressive.

We walked back to campus. Thank goodness the mall wasn't a long distance walk back.

We said goodbye to Jasper after he helped us carry our bags to the dorm. "Thanks." I said again for the millionth time.

He nodded. "Your welcome Bella." He gave a quick peck on the cheek to Alice and left the room.

"He's a nice guy." Rose approved.

"Yeah, he's really sweet isn't he?"

"Your one lucky girl, Alice Cullen." I patted her on the back.

"Thanks. Hey, do you guys mind coming to diner with me and my siblings?" She asked.

Dinner with her family? This was going to be interesting. "Sure, why not." We looked at Rose.

"I guess...but where are we going to eat?"

"There's this great resturant on campus."

"Okay but what am I suppose to wear?" I hope it wasn't anything to fancy.

"I'm going in a simple dress." Alice shrugged.

"I guess I will too then." I said. "It's a good thing I bought a couple of dresses."

I went back to my room and went through my bags taking out the 7 dresses I had bought.

I was down to two dresses. I couldn't decide which one to pick. Both dresses were from Victoria's Secret. I never knew they sold dresses until Alice dragged me in and forced me to try a couple on.

One of them was a knee length sweetheart neck dress (picture on profile) that hugged my curves in all the right places.

The other was a torquoise coloured ruched squareneck bra top dress. It was short and cute.

I decided that the torquoise dress would be more appropriate for dinner with a few friends. I felt that the red one looked more like I was going to a party. I quickly slipped into the dress and stepped into my matching pumps I had bought with it.

I straightened my long brown hair and applied eyeliner, mascara and eyeshadow on my eyes and finished off with my new glossly lipgloss.

I looked into the mirror. At least I looked decent. I hoped her siblings would like me as much as Alice did.

Rose and Alice were done as well. Alice wore a hot pink strapless bubble dress completed with yellow pumps and a yellow purse. Rose wore a steaming hot short red strapless dress that hugged her body so tightly, I wondered how he breathed in it.

"Ready?" Alice asked. "By the way you both look amazing!"

I blushed. "Thank you."

"You too Alice, come on! Let's go!"


We walked into a classy, yet expensive resturant Rose and I had once gone to. "Table for 3?"

"No actually, my brothers are here."

The lady nodded at us. Letting us get through. "Enjoy your meal."

"Thanks." I smiled at her.

"Yo, Alice!" A booming voice called from behind us. I spun around to see 3 boys sitting at a table. The one who had called Alice was very...big...well built. I could tell he works out a lot. His hair was brown and curly. He didn't look that scary, judging the way his body looked. Next to him was Jasper, who we met earlier and last but not least, the bronze haired boy I saw the other night.

"Oh, over here guys." We followed behind Alice.

"Bella, Rose, you know Jasper," she pointed to him as we nodded. "This is Emmett," she pointed to the big one. He leaned over to shake our hands, squeezing it a little too much.

"Hey," he smiled. "so you two are the ones Alice has been going on about on Friday."

Looks like Alice already introduced us to them. "And this is my brother, Edward." She pointed to the lanky boy beside Emmett. He looked up at me with his green eyes. My eyes bore into his as I quickly snapped out of our gaze. "Hi, I'm Bella." I blushed. He chuckled. "Edward." He greeted me.

The three of us sat down joining them. The waiter came by and flirted with Rose for a little bit before we ordered.

"Can you believe that?" I laughed.

"Unbelievable! The first day here I got about 6 numbers from different guys and now here I am getting hit on!"

We all burst into laughter. "Looks like you're the hottest girl on campus." Alice joked.

"I don't think so. There are a lot of girls much prettier than me." I can't believe Rose was comparing herself to the other girls on campus. No one could stand a chance to Rosalie. She was much more than beautiful. My own father thought she should pursue modeling.

"Are you kidding?" Emmett let out. "You're the hottest chick around since Tanya!"

Edward hit Emmett in the rib with his elbow.

"Sorry bro." Emmett looked down.

Why didn't Edward say anything about her? Where the two dating? I wanted to ask so badly but I would look like such a coward.

"So, Rosalie, what are your interests?"

"Well, I enjoy shopping," the three of them groaned but she ignored them. "I love playing soccer, chatting online, going to the movies, hanging out with my friends oh and I love cars."

Emmet's eyes widened. "Did you just say cars?"

Rosalie looked at him like he was stupid. "Yeah...is that a problem?"

"No it's just that all the girls on campus are only interested in cheerleading, boys and shopping." Jasper said.

"They're all sluts!" Emmett yelled.

I laughed. "I don't think I'm a slut. Neither is Alice and Rosalie."

He coughed. "Well not including you guys. You guys are the first girls we ever met that are different than the others."

I sighed. "There's more to life than just shopping and gossiping."

"Finally someone who understands us!" Alice said.

"Are the girls here really that...girly?" Rose asked.

"Yeah but you get use to it after a while." Edward said. I tried really hard not to look at him because if I did I would end up doing something so stupid and embaress myself in front of everyone.

"Of course Edward would know." Alice rolled her eyes. I wondered what she meant by that.

"I'm confused." Rosalie said.

"Well, my brother here has his own fan club of girls on campus." Emmett said. "Really, you should see all the girls lining up just to get a hi from him."

"Yeah and he flirts with every girl he sees." Alice added. So he was single then?

"Not to mention locking lips with them too." I whispered. Oh God did I just say that out loud?!

"What did you say?" Jasper asked.

"Nothing." I looked down, embaressed.

Thankfully the waitor came back with our food. After he set it all down he winked at Rose before turning back. Rose made a gaging sound that left us all in giggles.

We finished dinner about an hour later. And talked for a little bit more.

"So Bella, tell us about yourself." Jasper asked. I looked down and blushed. They wanted to know about me?

"Uhm, well, you know..." I gulped. "I'm new here and I'm in ninth grade with Rose and Alice and I guess you guys..." I said, embaressing myself. "And uh, yeah I do like shopping but other than that I like to play sports in my sparetime." God Bella, you're such an idiot! I thought.

Edward seemed to be interested in my little speech. "What kind of sports?"

"Volleyball, basketball and soccer. Oh and I don't mind football. It's actually really fun." I only learned how to play football this one time during phys ed class when we had a supply. But the whole hour and 10 minutes of it, I was getting really hooked to it.

"Wow." He said in amazement. "Nice."

"Thank you." I blushed, trying not to look at him. Thought I could feel his eyes locked on me the whole time.

We spent the next few minutes talking about ourselves so we'd get more comfortable around eachother. We all exchanged numbers and I decided to call it a night. Alice and Rose stayed back with them and I said goodbye. I left the resturant noticing how dark and chilly it was.

"Will we see you soon Bella?" I turned around and there he was, Edward Cullen.

Edward talking to me? "Uhm, yeah I guess..." I mumbled.

He chuckled. "Do you mind if I walk back with you?"

I looked ahead of me. My dorm wasn't that far... "Sure." I blushed. I was glad it was too dark to see the colour in my cheek. I shivered as the wind blew by me. I should of brought a sweater.

Edward shrugged out of his jacket and place it on my shoulders. "Edward you don't have to." I said.

"It's okay Bella. I'm not cold." He smiled crookedly at me. I couldn't help but notice how white his teeth were. And oh my God, his smile was so breathtaking!

"Thanks."

We walked silently for a few seconds before he made conversation. "How long have you been here for?"

"I just in Friday with Rose."

"Ah, I see."

She moves her body like a cyclone...

The chorus of the song "Cyclone" played as Edward reached in his pocket for his phone. "Excuse me." He said before turning his back and walking away.

I was stil in hearing distance and I couldn't help but listen.

"Hey Leanne." He said. "Tonight?...what time?...10?...what time is it now?...okay I'll be there in half an hour." He shut the phone and walked back to me.

"Sorry, what were you saying?"

"I wasn't sayin-"

His phone rang again. "One moment." He shot me an apologetic look.

"Hey Chels" He said. "Yeah about that, I can't come to the concert with you tonight... um, I have to, um... I think I'm coming down with a fever. I'm not feeling to well." He lied. How could he! That poor Chelsea girl! Wow, he really was as low as Alice said.

His phone rang again before he got a chance to walk back to me. "Hey Tara! Oh, I'm sorry I missed dinner. I had to help Emmett with something then I wasn't feeling good so I took a long nap and well I just woke up now. Yeah maybe next time." He sighed and walked back to me. I glared at him.

"Sorry about that." he smiled. Even with his amazing dazzling smile, I was still angry. How could he treat girls like that?

"Feeling better, Cullen? I said angerly. "How's your fever coming along?" I said in between my teeth.

He coughed. "I uh, don't have one."

"Then why did you lie to the poor girls?" I crossed my arms.

He raised his eyebrow. "Um, Bella I think that's none of your buisness!" he shouted at me.

Oh, now he was shouting at me? "Whatever Edward." I shrugged his jacket off my shoulders and threw it at him. I took off my heels and ran as fast as I could back to my dorm. I heard him shouting my name in the distance but I ignored him and continued to run.

Edward Cullen was such a jerk. To think I wanted to be friends with him! Ugh, I'm so disgusted with myself. Friends? I think not! I can't believe I bought his looks! I hated guys like that. I even dated one to, Jacob Black. And hell, let me tell you it was the worst mistake I've ever made! We dated for a month until I found out he was going around kissing and taking out other girls. I never thought Edward would be like one of them. Stupid me. I misjudged him. But thanks to tonight, I was glad I got to meet him before I drooled over him even more. Edward Cullen was nothing but a low, selfish asshole! And I wouldn't fall for the type. Again. Ever. Seriously.
