A/N: Ok so the first few chapters are going to suck because remember these are introducing chapters. The characters need to adjust and everything, and then the real story begins.
BPOV:
I woke up slowly, to find out that I was in my bed.
When did I get into my bed?
Yesterday events replayed in my head; Talking about childhoods, Edward talking about Esme, me falling asleep on his shoulder.
Oh great. He probably thinks I did that on purpose.
I got up, noticing that I still had my clothes on from yesterday. I went out my door and went inside to the kitchen. I found Edward, his backside to me, humming while he was looking for something in the cabinets. He was humming an unfamiliar tune and then he stopped what he was doing. He turned to me, and blushed suddenly.
He said shyly, "I was making you some toast because there's nothing else for breakfast. I have to go out and buy some food. I can't find the plates, can you help me find them?"
I helped him find the plates, and then I sat down in one of the chairs, and started spreading butter on my toast. I got up to get a cup of orange juice, and came back to the table where I found Edward in the other chair, looking down to his hands.
I asked, "Did you eat already?"
"Yes, I am a morning person, so I like getting up early." He replied.
Hm, I am more of a night person. It's like yin and yang, and they make one whole.
Then there was silence when I was eating. It wasn't awkward or anything, just that nobody had anything else to say.
When a thought appeared in my head, I blurted out, "How did I get in my bed?"
"I uh well you kinda fell asleep on my shoulder, and I uh thought that you wanted to sleep on your bed, so I just picked you up, and uh put you on your bed. Is that alright?" He asked, like he was unsure if he did something bad or not.
"Oh it's fine, I was just wondering." When I said that, he looked relieved. Once I finished, I was about to get up and put the dishes away, but Edward suddenly said, "Can I put that away for you?" I didn't want to be rude and say no, but I wanted to show that I can do things myself, that I wasn't weak or anything. I wasn't having a mental fight in my head. So I just agreed on a thought.
"Sure. Can you put my plate in the sink? I'll put away the butter and orange juice." There, that was good. It was like we were equal, and I have no problem with that.
I sat on the couch, waiting for Edward to come. I knew what I had to do if I was going to be sharing a dorm room with a guy.
When Edward sat down next to me, I started "Ok since we are sharing a dorm room, we have to have some rules. First, you have to clean up your own mess. I'm not going to cleaning after you."
"Already done. I'm not the messy."
"Ok good. Second, no girls can come in here. I mean, sure friends can come, girls or boys, but you can't come in here late at night and start sexing up this place. I don't want to hear anybody getting some." I really hoped he didn't bring any girls. I want all his attention on me.
Where did that come from? What the fuck?
When I looked up at Edward, he was blushing and looked at the floor.
"Um well, don't worry about that. Girls don't even notice me." He said. I looked at him, probably with a shocked face. He could not be kidding me.
"Are you joking?"
"No. I've never really had a girlfriend. None of them seem to be interested."
"Then those girls are out of their fucking minds! Why wouldn't they want to be with you?"
"Why would they want to be with me?"
"Well have you checked the mirror lately? You're beyond handsome. Gorgeous, sexy, whatever. You're just really really REALLY good-looking. You're smart of course, I mean you are in Dartmouth! You think of others, like this morning when you made me breakfast. You're respectful, like when you put me on my bed instead of letting me sleep on the floor. And a plus is that you look adorable with that blush of yours." It was true. Are girls these days really that stupid to let this man walk around single? Guess they are.
Edward's face brightened with a small smile and looked at me in the eye.
"Thank you, Bella." I just loved the way he said my name, I have to have him say it more often, but just to get even I said, "Your welcome, Edward."
"So do you want to watch a movie or something?" I had nothing to do so I agreed.
"Sure! I love horror movies. I brought some movies. Which one do you want to watch?" I asked. I absolutely loved horror movies. Well, they weren't really horror, just thrilling.
"You pick. They are your movies. Ladies choice." He said. Hm, it was my choice? Fine, then let it be.
"Ok, my choice is for you to pick to the movie."
He looked frustrated, but replied, "Do you have Poltergiest?" (A/N: I love that movie! If you haven't watched that movie, go rent it now!)
"Yep, I'll go get it." I went to my room to receive the movie, and then went back to the living room. I put in the movie and sat next to Edward. Even though I have watched this movie a million times, I still get jumpy at certain parts. However, when the scene with the clown appearing behind the boy, I jumped and I laid my head on his chest. His body stiffened at first, surprised that I was touching him, but he slowly wrapped his arms around me. Then I felt better and I felt safe. Once the movie was done, I noticed that I was still in his arms.
"I'm sorry. It's just that you seem scared, so I put my arms around you to calm you down. I – "
"It's ok. Don't worry about it. I always get scared at the scene."
Then my phone rang and I checked who it was. Alice.
I answered my phone, "Hey Alice. How's your roommate?"
"Oh my god!!" She squealed, "You have to meet my roommate! Rosalie has great taste in fashion! And she is so pretty, but she doesn't have a boyfriend! We have to set her up with Emmett! I swear she is the perfect girl for him!! Oh my god you have to meet her! You have to come down to the café. The café is so cute! We are here right now. I already invited Emmett, and him and his roommate is coming too! Get your ass down here and bring your roommate!" She said that all in one breath. Damn that girl is hyper.
"Ok ok Alice. We'll be there in a few. Love ya."
"Love ya too. Ciao."
I turned to Edward, and asked if he wanted to come to meet some of my friends, and he agreed. While we were near the café, he asked, "Are those your friends right there?"
I saw where he was looking at, and of course I saw a little pixie running full speed to me. She hugged me and said, "Is that your roommate?" She was looking at Edward.
"Yes, he is."
"Hm… he's pretty hot." She giggled.
I looked at him and replied, "He is the definition of sexy. But he's also a great guy." I guessed Edward heard, because he was slightly blushing. Alice yelled for the other people to come. I introduced my friends, Emmett and Alice. Alice introduced her roommate, Rosalie. Rosalie had a model's body, blonde flowing hair, bright blue eyes, and a fair complexion. She was the image of perfection. I noticed Emmett's eyes looked at her with adoration, lust, and an emotion I couldn't figure out. Once Emmett was done checking out Rosalie, he introduced Jasper. He looked very similar to Rosalie, with the blonde hair and ocean blue eyes. I also noticed Alice was staring at him and I could tell that she was having another 'feeling'. Edward smiled brightly and went over to Jasper and gave him a pat on the back and said, "Hey man. What's going on?" "Nothing much, my classes don't start for a week, so I'm just enjoying college life." Rosalie came and they started talking. I realized that Jasper and Rosalie were twins. While they were talking, Emmett, Alice, and I were all talking.
Alice said, "Rosalie told me that her, Jasper, and Edward were all good friends in high school."
Emmett got all excited and said, "Damn the Rosalie chick is pretty hot. I have to go on a date with her. Hey Alice…"
"Yes I will set you up with her. She is perfect for you Em! She likes cars, she's smart, she's very witty and funny, and she is gorgeous!" Emmett got all excited and he looked like a little kid who just got his first puppy.
"So Emmett, does Jasper have a girlfriend?" They were both exchanging information on their roommates. I felt happy for them both because they already have their eyes on someone. I mean, I like Edward, but I don't think I could handle getting hurt again. I don't need a boyfriend to make me happy. I do like to have friends though. If I start out being friends with Edward, maybe I can trust him more. He really was a wonderful guy. He didn't seem cocky or arrogant, just the opposite. He was shy, and had a gentle atmosphere around him. Maybe that is what I need, I was never the one for cocky jerks. Once we were done all talking with our little reunion, we decided to all go to lunch.
Do I like Edward? Oh crap this isn't good. .. I won't get my heart broken again. But will I risk it with Edward?
A/N: Ok so I wasn't happy with this chapter at all. I guess it is a filler chapter, but oh well. I don't want everything to go too fast, so tell me if I'm rushing it or anything. Oh and should the next chapter be in EPOV? Should I change something? Thanks to those who review and give me ideas! I truly appreciate them!
