Sorry for the wait! I have had exams going on. They will be going on for the next month so please bear with me!

I hope you guys like this story because I have so many ideas for it. I'm super excited! I sometimes get confused about Edwards senses so if I slip up let me know!

I've been avoiding Bella. I stayed off school for a week after that day I touched her hand. I couldn't stand being so close to someone who tasted so good. I didn't deserve her. I'm a freak, a nobody. I caught her looking up at me, her gaze felt soft, concerned. I knew she asked about me, Alice told me. Thank God she remained tight lipped about my ''condition''. I can't let her know just how weird I really am.

I drove slowly to school. My silver Volvo practically begging me to go faster. I dragged the journey out as long as I possibly could. I crawled through the school gates, the building looming. I felt like I was going to serve a death sentence not 7 hours of school. As I pulled into my spot I felt a pair of eyes on my face. I turned around and saw Bella looking at me, but as soon as she caught me looking she blushed and walked away with Alice. I closed my eyes and pinched the bridge of my nose. It was going to be one of those days.

The whole day was a blur of tastes and smells. I had double biology after lunch and I was dreading it. 2 hours sitting beside Bella. 2 hours trying to fight the urge to touch her, it was too much to bear. I longed for the dizzy sweetness of her touch, but I had to resist. I can't let her know what I am.

I was sitting in the school lunch hall, at my normal table. Everyone was sitting there; Alice, Jasper, Emmet, Rosalie and...... Bella. I spoke mostly to Emmet, I caught Bella looking a few times but I tried not to acknowledge it.

''So Edward, were all heading up to Port Angeles to go camping, do you wanna come?'' Emmet asked, he was grinning like a madman.

''Ermm well, I don't know, I'll need to check with my pa....'' Alice butted in before I could finish.

''Already done. Mum and Dad think it will be good for us (meaning me) to get away with friends'' she smiled at me, concern in her hazel eyes.

''Well I guess it's settled'' I sighed.

I looked round at Bella; she was looking at Alice who was whispering to her.

''Add one more, I'm in'' Bella said fiercely, she got up and went to the bathroom with Alice and Rosalie hot on her heels.

''Dude, what's going on with you and Bella?'' Emmet asked bluntly.

I shrugged in reply. He looked me in the eye and spoke in quite an angry tone.

''Well whatever it is, you need to fix it. I won't listen to my little sister moping about you anymore. She says you just ignore her and give her dirty looks. Not cool dude''

I looked at him and felt my shoulders droop. Bella shouldn't waste her time thinking about me, I'm not good enough for her, she deserves better.

''Sorry man, I've just got a lot on my mind. Ill apologise'' I said sincerely.

''Well you better.... cause I kinda like you man and I don't want to mess up your pretty face'' He smiled jokingly at me and I burst out laughing.

BIOLOGY

I was in class before anyone else; even Mr Banner. I started to drag my stool away from Bella's when I heard her behind me.

''Don't worry Cullen, I don't have any infectious diseases, I'm not catching. Grow up'' she said. I was surprised at the anger in her voice. She looks so soft and vulnerable, like she can't be angry, that made it funny. I laughed under my breath, thinking she wouldn't hear me. She whirled round in her seat, hair flying round her face, her eyes flashing in her anger; I could see tears at the corners of her eyes.

''Look, I never did anything to you. I sit here day after day trying not to move, not even breathe! Because you have some aversion to me that I don't understand. We spoke one day and everything seemed to be fine and then all of a sudden I'm taboo. You can't even look at me and I want to know why!'' she was breathing hard, tears flowing freely down her cheeks; her anger must be connected to her tear ducts.

''Hmmhmm'' Mr Banner and the whole class were standing behind us; they'd obviously seen and heard everything.

''Miss Swan, Mr Cullen. Please leave the classroom, you have 5 minutes to sort out whatever is going on between you and please come back without any drama''

BELLA

I stormed out into the hallway and headed for one of the benches in the school yard. I flung myself down into and wiped the tears from my eyes. Why the hell did I cry every time I'm angry, it's so embarrassing? I heard Edward sit down beside me, I watched as his hand moved over, close to mine, but then he stopped and sat on his hands.

''Look Bella'' he started.

''No you listen, I was nothing but nice to you that day. Alice told me you were special and that you needed someone to help you. I took that chance and tried to help, by talking to you, treating you like my friend. And you threw it all back in my face! I waited; I waited for over a week for you to speak to me, to even acknowledge my presence. But I guess waiting for you is like'' I looked at the sky, it was darkening and rain was beginning to fall '' it's like waiting for a day without rain: It's never going to happen'' I sat there as the rain grew heavier. He didn't say anything for a few minutes.

''Bella, I don't know what to say. I guess all I can say is that... I'm sorry. There's a lot you don't know about me. And I'm not telling you until I know you won't run screaming. But you have to trust me when I say this. Bella, I think I like you. Every time I see you I feel happy but then I remember I can't have you and so I ignore you. But I can't ignore it anymore. It's just too strong a feeling to let go'' I looked up at him; there was a strange sadness in his eyes. He looked up into my eyes.

''Edward, you can have me. There's a lot you don't know about me. Christ you would run if you knew how I looked in the morning. You don't know how clumsy I am. You never look at me to see it. I accept your apology'' I smiled.

''Good....'' He smiled.

I looked into his eyes, he was leaning closer, on instinct I moved in towards him, his hand came up to the side of my face. I could almost feel his lips on mine.

''Mr Cullen and Miss Swan. I see everything is sorted between you, please get dried off and rejoin us in class'' Mr Banner shouted from his class window. I ducked my head, my cheeks burning with embarrassment. I stood up to walk to the girl's bathroom when Edward pulled me back.

''For now'' he whispered and he pressed his lips onto mine once, and they were gone.

EDWARD

''For now'' I whispered and I leaned in and kissed her once. I walked away. I couldn't believe how she tasted. She was sweet but with a strange floral taste that was very pleasant. That was before we had kissed properly.

The day was a mix of emotions; anger, sadness, longing, love. Love?

I REALLY like this chapter! I wanted a good B/E Argument!
