Chapter 2
Lunch Hour
BPOV
Trigonometry was the worst period. Mr. Stanley sounded like a droning machine explaining angles. I watched the clock tick tock to lunch time, my favorite period ever. Once the bell rung, I ran down the corridor to the lunch hall. Emmett and Edward was already there at our table waiting for the rest. I sat across Edward when I got to them. I always sat across him so I could look at him and remember the way his copper hair caught the sunlight or the way his eyes lit up as he and Emmett talk about whatever it was they usually talked about.
Rosalie, my bestfriend, arrived at our table and started complaining about the other boys at our grade level trying to hit on her. She really stood out, though, with her swimmer's physique, beach blonde hair and bright blue eyes. She was everyone's dream girl.
"See, babe, if you just let me date you, I could intimidate them and let them back off," Emmett told her, "or we could just pretend, ya know." He gave her a wink.
"Ew, Em, stop hitting on her. She's my bestfriend, you know. It's a no-no to date your sister's bestfriend," I told him and then looked at Rose only to see her contemplating Em's offer. "Come on, Rose," I told her, "that's disgusting. I know him and I know you."
Edward started laughing at this point. "You know, Em, Jazz is going to give you a hell of a beating if you do that and I really don't want that 'cause her brother and I are good friends, too," he tells Em.
"Just tell him, we're just pretending," Emmett gave Edward a big grin.
Rose was still contemplating. It was never a good thing if she thought about it long enough. I kept shaking her, hoping she'd never thought of it. I breathed a sigh of relief as she says she'll decide another time.
Emmett gave a pout and I punched his arm softly to show my disapproval of his request and reaction.
"So, how about us, Bella? Wanna give us a try?" Edward asked casually. I thought he was serious. I felt butterflies in my tummy and I thought they could fly their way out of it at the rate that my heart was beating.
"No. No. No," Emmett chanted and Edward laughed again.
"See, bro. You wouldn't like it either. I was just kidding, Bells," he told Em, giving me a small smile. My heart dropped into my stomach. I looked at my food and started picking on it.
"Stupid git," Emmett tried to pull his head down for a nogging and as they made a mess around the table trying to get a hit on each other, I felt Rose start laughing. I had to start laughing, too, even if I didn't find it funny.
