Earth Angel
I gave Emmett a stern look before throwing him a fake smile and replying, "Don't worry Em, some guy was bothering me but Edward got rid of him for me. Edward these are my friends Alice and Emmett."
Edward waved and smiled before sliding into the booth after me. "So do you guys live in town?"
"Nah, we live in Forks. It's the really small town about an hour or so from here." Alice replied with a Cheshire cat grin.
"Oh really?" Edward looked at us wide eyed, "My parents live there - well I live there too. Not with my parents, my roommate Jasper and I share a house there. Except its more of a shack…but we love it!
"Wow! Small world isn't it!" Alice was near bouncing in her seat, my guess was her excitement was due to a very cute blonde guitarist.
"So Eddie how old are you?" Oh fuck, Emmett was doing the cop dad bit again.
"I'm 20, why? How old are you guys?" He looked a little peaked when answering.
"I'm seventeen but Emmett and Bella are eighteen." Alice replied with a little pout and I could see Edward look relieved.
"Oh, that's cool." Edward said smiling over at me, his eyes looked like they were sparkling emeralds. "Oh here's Jasper, he's the guitarist for the band."
Jasper waved over at Edward before walking over to our table smiling at us. "Hey man, I was gonna head back to the pad, Irina's here and I just don't want to deal with her right now."
"That's cool, I'll grab a cab back. This, by the way, is Bella and her friends Alice and Emmett. They also live in Forks."
"Wow you guys live in Forks? How do you stand it? If I didn't have my 9 to 5 there I'd leave Eddie there by himself." He said chuckling.
"We get out of there as often as possible!" Alice giggled. Jasper looked over at her for the first time and there they stuck widening slightly his mouth formed a dopey smile. Alice simply looked at him from under her lashes and I could tell from that small look he was stuck, hook-line-sinker. He had no hope.
"So Jasper I guess we'll see you later?" Edward asked him and smiled knowing, I had a feeling our thoughts were very similar. Jasper nodded a little before shaking his head and clearing his brain and looked over at Edward.
"Actually I think I could use a drink. You guys don't mind me joining right?" He asked gazing at Alice.
"Not at all." She batted her eyes at him.
"Okay, I'm gonna go grab a drink I'll be right back…right back." He turned and stumbled away under the influence of Alice.
"I don't think that was very fair at all. He didn't even have a chance." Edward announced laughing and smiling at Alice.
"That's Alice." I informed him.
"Alright you kids, I'm gonna go mingle I don't feel like playing the fifth wheel." Emmett told us sliding out of the booth.
"What? Em you aren't a fifth wheel!" I told him.
"Its cool Bell, I see a very nice looking lady over by the bar who may need a taste of Emmy-bear." We all looked over to the bar where the blonde leggy Rosalie was standing clearly giving Emmett the bedroom eyes. "Oh and Bells," he leaned over to whisper in my ear, "Don't forget about what's in Alice's bag and don't be afraid to use it." I rolled my eyes at him but nodded.
Jasper returned just then with a beer. "So did you girls enjoy the show?"
"Oh yes, you guys were so good. I especially enjoyed that Third Eye Blind cover."
"You like Third Eye Blind?" Jasper asked skeptically.
"Hey Jazz I'm gonna grab a smoke really quick I'll be right back. Bella do you want to come with?" Edward asked, I nodded and followed him towards the back door down the dark hallway we came in from. He held the door open for my before making sure it stayed open with a cement block, that made his arms flex in a way that made my stomach clench. He pulled a crumpled pack of cigarettes from his pocket before offering one to me, which I accepted only because it was so cold out and they warmed me up quick, then slipping one between his own lips. He pulled a metal butane lighted out of his lighter leaning closely towards me to light mine before lighting his also. The way his lips held the cigarette before blowing out the smoke and licking them did nothing to help the ongoing tingles in my thighs.
"So your eighteen, you live in Forks, tell me about you." He said.
"Well I'm a senior at Forks High School but I want to major in English once I get into college. I live with my dad, Charlie, now but I used to live in Arizona with my mom." I told him as though reading from a script.
"Why don't you live with your mom anymore?"
"She-we…I…its complicated. My dads easier to live with. My moms a bit of a child and I couldn't be the parent anymore." I answered memorizing the gravel underfoot.
"I didn't mean to pry into your business. You don't have to tell me if you don't want to." He stepped a little closer to me and looked into my eyes and when I looked up into them I saw a bit of understanding.
"So why did you move to Forks?" I asked him.
"Well we used to live in Chicago but my father got a offered at Forks General, he's a doctor, and my mother wanted to live in a small town away from the high crime rates and whatnot. I decided to move with them and my father got Jazz a job down here so he came too. We met Felix, our drummer, and Riley, our bassist, from a couple of want adds. That's about it." He gave me a very sexy smirk and I felt my chest getting a little warm. I looked at the cigarette in my hands, it had burned down and completely turned to ash. I hadn't even notice.
