Edward POV
Jessica was batting her eye lashes at me. Bored, I turned and looked to see what everyone else was doing.
Lauren was flirting with Tyler. Angela and Ben were working on the problems. Isabella was kissing Jacob on the cheek. Eric was...Wait. Isabella is kissing Jacob!
Immediately, I felt an emotion I've never encountered before, surge through me. I've seen it in action and heard about it, but it was another thing to feel it. At that point I recognized that particular feeling,
Jealousy
I've never had to be jealous. Of anything. At all. Seriously. I could honestly say that I've never had a girl reject me. Even though Isabella rejected me, I decided to give her another chance.
I walked over to Isabella and Jacob. She was about to ask him something when I cleared my throat. She slowly turned around.
Jacob POV
I looked up from Bella to see Edward standing there, no doubt about to ask her to be his partner.
Anger flowed through me as I sent him glares when Bella's back was turned.
"What do you want?" She spat.
"Well I know you didn't mean what you said I have decided to give you another you care to be my partner?"
I cut in. "I'm sorry but Bella just asked me to be her partner." I replied as calmly as I could. I took her hand under the table and she calmed immediately.
Edward looked from me to Bella curiously before whispering something in her ear. He turned around and went back to his table.
She turned back to me. "Thanks let's get started." She let go of my hand. I immediately felt an emptiness course over me.

After about an hour, it was time to go to third period. I sighed.
"What's wrong?" Bella asked.
"Nothing." I lied. I didn't want her to see how much it affected me to see her go, even if its for one period.
She thought for a minute. "It's ok. We still lunch and the rest of the day."
When we were younger, Bella always could tell if something was bothering me. It seems that skill didn't fade away with time. She knew me so well.
"I know. It's just that I haven't seen you in a few years." I sighed.
"Hey. How about you come over my house after school. You still remember where I live right?" She asked and suddenly heightened my mood.
"Yeah. Sure, I'll be there."
"Great!" She grabbed her books and stood up. Yelling a, "Bye!", over her shoulder she walked out the door.
I grabbed my things and headed out the door, going the opposite direction.
Bella POV
I walked into my next class finding a beaming Alice motioning for me to sit next to her.
I didn't even make it to my seat before she started talking.
"Oh. My. Gosh. Bella, he is so sweet. He opened the door and pulled my chair out. We talked the whole period and guess what?!" She paused before answering her own question. "He asked me on a date this Saturday!"
"Alice that's great!"
I froze, knowing what she was going to say next. Shopping.
"No"
"What you don't even know what I'm going to say!" She argued.
I gave her a disbelieving look.
"What did you think I was going to say?" She accused but there was something in her tone that made me think she was holding something back.
"Shopping?" I asked. Alice bit her lip and shook her head.
"Well....I didn't want to be alone on the date so I might have told Jasper to ask Edward if he wanted to double date." She paused before continuing. " With you" She smiled apologetically.
Just then, Edward's words from earlier ringed in my head.
Can't wait for the weekend.
I had no idea what they meant until now.
"Alice! Why would you tell him that? I'm not going." Why would Alice think I would agree to something like this?
"Bella, be reasonable. He's incredably hot. Why not?"
"How about you set me up with a complete stranger?!" I yelled, catching the teachers attention.
"Swan, do need a detention?" The teacher asked.
All eyes were on me. I sunk into me chair. "No." I mumbled.
"Well then, I suggest you pay attention." She turned back to the board.
All through class, I glared at her. When she finally noticed she rolled her eyes.
The bell finally rang and I stormed out with Alice in Wonderland dancing behind me.
My mood wavered when I saw Jacob.
"Hi, Jake." I smiled warmly.
"Hey Bella!" he called as he made his way over to me.
We talked all the way to the lunchroom. I completely forgot about Edward.
I ordered a pizza, some fruit and as bottled water.
When I had my food, I looked around for Alice,Jasper,Rose, and Emmett. I found them and sat down. Jake followed.
"So Bella, I heard." Emmett said pointing to Alice who was talking to Jasper.
I glared and he put his hands up in defense.
The way we were sitting had Jacob on my left with no one to my was sitting next Jake. He was talking to Alice who was directly in front of him. Rose was in Emmett's arms.
"So Bella." I turned to see a very nervous Jake. I motioned with my hand for him to continue.
"Would you like to...you know....go out..with me......this Saturday?" His eyes were hopeful.
I froze.
I never really thought about Jake at all that way. He was so sweet, I didn't know what to say. I wasn't opposed to going out with him but I didn't know how this would affect out friendship. What if the date went bad? Then what was I supposed to do. If I said no then he would be crushed. But if I said yes then....
Jake watched me with hopeful eyes. I looked around the table for help.
Rosalie's eyes widened at something behind me, while Jake glared.
Before I could answer, someone put an arm around me and obviously over hearing Jake's question, replied "I'm sorry, Jacob. But Bella's taken."
My eyes widened.
