Chapter 2

BPOV

The sun hit my face through the curtains as I lay in my bed. I looked over at the clock to see I still had an hour before I needed to go to class and meet up with Rose. I smiled as I remembered the first time we met at UCLA. Obviously I was the shy nerdy girl who was afraid of being in a big city by herself. One day I was going around the campus until I tripped over my two feet and bumped into a gorgeous tall blonde. I thought, maybe she would forgive me as I repetitively apologized; however, there was a huge pink stain on her white shirt. She glared at me before she roared, making me quiver.

Even though Rose can be a huge bitch, I still loved her. I mean yeah, I almost peed my pants that day but she apologized for freaking out and we both became really good friends. She taught me how to stick up for myself and to get out of my shell. Plus, she helped me get a job at the dance studio. It still amazes me that I can dance better than I can walk.

I got up and stretched for a minute before I walked into my little bathroom and took a shower and brushed my teeth. I quickly dried my hair and combed it out before going into my room and slipping into some yoga pants and a t-shirt with flats. I knew I dressed like a slob but I really had no other choice, especially with my busy schedule. I applied some mascara before my phone started to ring.

"Hey Rose"

"Hey Bells. You want me to pick you up? We're going for lunch right?"

"Yeah, I'm up for lunch. I still need to go run some errands so I'll drive myself," I put the mascara lid back on. "How was your stay at Emmett's?"

"It was good, until his shit head of a brother got into a lot of mess." She snickered

"Who's his brother?" I inquired, not that I was really interested. I was just shocked Emmett even had a brother

"Oh trust me; you will never be able to guess him." She chuckled and I huffed.

"You know Rose, I can easily just goggle Emmett up and find out." I replied as I peeled a banana and cut it into my packaged oatmeal. I could sense Rose rolling her adorable blue eyes on the other line.

"Whatever, Swan. I'll meet you at Olive Garden at let you in on the gossip." I giggle and eat my oatmeal.

"Okay Rose, see ya at twelve" I smile and hang up. I eat my oat meal and drink a whole glass of water before I grab my hoodie, books and purse and head out to my truck.

My truck wasn't the most ideal vehicle in town, but it survived with me for the past three years I couldn't be more thankful.

Classes passed by quickly. I decided to leave my books in my truck and walk to olive garden, since the day was so nice. I walked past the playground and smiled at the children and laughed away as they imagined a world that was care free. I can't wait until I see my kids at the dance studio tonight, all of them are so lively. That is until the boys lose focus of what they are supposed to be doing.

I pull open the door that leads to the restaurant, greeted by a busty blonde with a fake tan and a fake smile. Hell, everything about her was false! She soon led me to the booth Rose and I were sharing and slid into one. I looked at the clock and heard the clicking of heels. Yup, the diva was fashionably late.

"Hope I didn't keep you waiting too long." She smirked at me.

"Let me guess, you and Emmett had a make out session in his office?" I raised my eyebrow as she shamelessly blushed and I laughed. "You nasty!" I snorted and ate a bread stick which made me release a moan out of my mouth. The waitress came by and put down our drinks, a coke for me and water for Rose, as we were still deciding on what to eat.

"Gosh can this stuff be more calorie risen?!" Rose whined as I rolled my eyes.

"Gosh can you like not ruin my hunger and self-esteem right now?" I mocked in a high pitched voice and giggled as she throw me a glare.

"Shut up, Swan. Not everyone has a metabolism like yours. I guess I will just have their pasta and eat half of it." I shook my head.

"Rose, just shut up. Anyways," I put my menu down and smirked at her "Who's Emmett's brother?" She put her menu down and took a gulp of her water.

"Edward Cullen."

"The singer?" I asked

"Yup." She said, popping her 'p'. She leaned back into her seat before she revealed what had happened at the Cullen house. "He's into some deep shit."

"Like what?" I asked, sipping my coke and nibbling on the bread.

"Apparently there was a misunderstanding between a stripper and him, who wanted some easy money which resulted in Edward's ass being thrown in jail. Now, daddy Cullen wants him to get married so it looks like he settled down." Now that made my eyes go wide. Before I could respond, our waiter came and took our orders quickly.

"How could he just get married, Rose?" I wondered.

"Bells, I'm sure one of his sluts is willing to marry him right now." She snickered.

"I'm serious! Shouldn't people fall in love before they get married?" I whisper before I sip my nearly finished drink.

"I don't think Edward has a soul that contains any feelings besides hate and anger. Besides, why do you care, Bellarina? It's not like he's going to come on a white horse and marry you in the closest chapel." Rose said sarcastically.

"And I'm not saying that he's going to marry me. Rose, in order to have feelings such as hate and anger, as you say, a person must have love before all of that. I'm sure Edward is dealing with some demons and just needs to talk to someone. Maybe everyone is just being way too harsh on him." Rose laughed as our food arrived.

"Okay, miss psychologist, tell me more of this theory you have about Cullen after you get your degree." Both of us giggled and dug into our food before talking about plans for the weekend, not realizing that Rose had somehow persuade me into going to the club with her and Emmett.

When I got home after work, I turned on the TV. only to find Edwards face on there. I could tell that the smile he put up for the cameras was not reaching his eyes. The question was; what was holding Edward back and why? The bigger question was…why the hell did I care?

So there you folks have it! Sorry it took me so long, I really have no excuses what so ever. Anyways, I think I have found some good ideas for this story and yes, Edward will be an ass hole in this story. Sorry gals ;) One love, Vamiresim and that's a wrap! ;) MWAH!
