* So, some people were wondering why Edward could read Bella's thoughts…..I thought that it would ad an extra twist to the story. Anyway, please read and review chapter three

Too Many Emotions- chapter 3

Bella's POV

Jacob and I came downstairs a little later. His arm was wrapped protectively around my waist. Unconsciously, I looked around to find Edward, hoping to see is beautiful face. Sadyly, I didn't see him.

"Where is Edward?" I asked Jacob.

"Hunting. He needs to more often than everyone else. So do you feel like going home? Nobody seems to be here right now."

Man, I missed Edward. Well, he doesn't matter anyways. I tried to convince myself.

"Let's go back to my place. Charlie is with Harry Clearwater right now, so we have it all to ourselves." I wiggled my eyebrows mischievously.

Jacob kissed me and together we walked to his Audi. I slid into the seat, thinking about Edward. I wanted to know more about Jake's mysterious brother.

"Jake, how long has Edward been a vampire?"

"Well, for about 80 years. Carlisle saved him when he was dying of the Spanish Influenza."

"Hm. So he can he read people's thoughts when they are miles away, or only when they are in the same room?"

"If he knows their scent he can, but only if they are less than a mile away."

Oh good. He can't here my thoughts right now. I thought about the pros and cons of being able to read minds until we reached my house.

"Darn, it looks like Charlie is home" I pouted, knowing we wouldn't have the house to ourselves

"That is ok Bells; I kind of wanted to hang out with Edward today, if you don't mind"

"Of course. That is fine." I faked a smile, disappointed

"Thanks Bella. See you tomorrow honey."

We made out for a couple minutes, until I realized that Charlie could be watching:)

I jumped out of the car and watched Jake drive away. I was sad that he couldn't stay, but I needed to think about things anyway. I walked into my house.

"Hey dad! I am home. How was Harry's?"

"Good, but not good. The Steelers lost to the Bears by a field goal in the last ten seconds of the game. Now the Steelers don't get to go to the playoffs." Charlie looked glum.

Boy talk. I just didn't understand.

"Aw, I am sorry dad. I am going upstairs now, kinda tired."

"G'night Bells."

I climbed up the stairs and almost killed myself tripping over the top step. I sighed. One day, I would break my neck from walking over a pebble. Today's events had me confused and sleepy. I got ready for bed early and did some Biology homework. My thoughts kept going back to Edward though, and I couldn't concentrate. URG. Jake was my boyfriend, and I shouldn't have thoughts like that about his brother, even if he was a hottie. I put away my school stuff and curled up under the covers. I went over the day's events, me and Jake, the other Cullens, and Edward. I shouldn't have these feelings I thought to myself. But I couldn't help it, and I thought about him until I drifted off to sleep.

That was the first night that I dreamt of Edward Cullen, and not Jacob.

Edward's POV

Bella. Isabella Swan. I sighed as I tried to remember my brother's girlfriend's name. I just wanted to hang out with Jake, not to meet his little mortal girlfriend. I had my shoulder hanging casually around Alice's, looking quite bored. My whole family was waiting for the two love birds to arrive. I wanted to be with my family, just my family. Not the mortal girl too.

"Edward, stop with the irritated ranting, I am getting a headache." Jasper yelled.

"Can we just get this over with? I want to play some baseball." I asked.

"Edward, Bella is very important to Jacob, so be nice. Anyway, it is supposed to rain tomorrow, not today." Esme smiled at me.

"Alright. I am ready."

As soon as those words left my mouth, Jake entered with his girlfriend trailing behind him. What first hit me was her amazing scent. She smelled like cinnamon and flowers and sugar and all good-smelling things. I tried not to breath. Shoot. I had that dryness in my throat. I wanted her blood.

"Edward, compose yourself!" Jasper whispered, to low for Bella to hear.

"You won't hurt her." Alice assured me.

I looked at her face, it was so beautiful! She looked so delicate, just like a doll. Her hair was wavy and complemented her face perfectly. If my heart was still beating, my pulse would have been going a million miles an hour. Edward is beautiful. A bell like voice said in my head. I didn't recognize it as one of my family members, OH WAIT! THAT IS BELLA! She thinks I am beautiful…she also thinks that I am dazzling. Weird, considering that Jacob is her boyfriend. While held my breath, I said;

"Hello Bella. My name is Edward. I have heard so much about you from Jacob."

I thought that was pretty good for my first time actually talking to a human, not killing them. I waited for her response, but instead I heard her think; his voice is so musical…. I for one did not think that I had a musical voice, but whatever. I read Jakes thoughts and could tell that he was worried that she was scared of me.

"Bella? Are you ok?" Jacob's asked her

"Oh. Um yeah. H-hi Edward." she blushed, embarrassed.

I didn't say anything; I was too amazed by her beauty. Her skin was pale and I just wanted to stroke her pink cheeks. Damn! I am not supposed to do this. She is my brother's girlfriends for Christ sake! What the hell Edward? Your emotions are everywhere! Cool it. Jasper thought this to me before he and the rest of the family walked out of the room, leaving me, Jacob and Bella. I risked another breath before quickly holding it again because of her mouthwatering scent.

"So Edward, do you have a special power thingy, like Alice and Jasper?" Bella asked me.

Aw, she was so amazingly beautiful….

"Yes actually, I can read minds." I smirked, kind of letting her know that I had heard her since she stepped through the door.

Bella swore in her head many times and I could tell that she was embarrassed.

"Well that must be interesting, knowing everything that people are thinking" Bella tried to sound casual, even though I could tell that she was paranoid

"It is actually kind of a pain. Sometimes it is interesting, other times it is embarrassing." I smiled at her.

Wow. She looked so pretty when she blushed.

"For example, Jacob here is worried that you are scared of me…why would that be Bella?" I asked her, just to make her think about my "special power thingy"

As soon as I said that, Jake started yelling inappropriate things in his head at me. I kinda felt bad, but I just wanted to see her beautiful pale face become tinged with pink again. Jacob told me that they were going upstairs. Then I heard Bella think; He was the human killer anyways. I growled and she said sorry in her head. I groaned. She hates me. I wanted her to like me. Well, I completely made a terrible first impression. I watched them walk up the stairs and I felt a pang of jealousy for my brother. URG! I needed to hunt and clear my head. I ran out the door and into the forest, hoping, but not counting on a mountain lion.

*REVIEW!!!!! DID I DO A GOOD JOB WITH EDWARD'S POV?
