A/N: Hey guys! Ultimately sorry about the late update. There are so many financial problems in my family because of today's economy; all the bills coming in because of hospitals and all that. It would be more than enough to pray for my family and all families in my situation. You're all probably sick of the author's excuses and just want to read the stupid chapter so I'm just going to give it to you. Thanks so much to all the reviewers but I hope I had more.
(short chapter, long author's note. Sorry; I hate writer's block!)

What makes her so much better than me?
What makes her your everything I can never be?
What makes her your every dreams and fantasy?
Because I can't remember when it was me.

"So you two are like… an item?!" Alice exclaimed. I slightly nodded and mumbled something incoherently. She shook her head as if looking like she was ashamed. I gave her a queried glance.
"What's wrong with Emmett?" I gave feign hurt tone. Her tone was melodic as usual. "Nothing's wrong with Emmett, Bell-ah" She said saying my name with a tune like a bell. "There's something wrong with you. Surely you're not interested in someone like Emmett. He has the body of a twenty-year-old, yet the intelligence of a five-year-old." She explained. I let her continue knowing where she was going with it.
"You are a strong, confident girl. You're superior and you're probably looking for someone who can understand you're feelings. Someone who can make you laugh and have a good time but knows the time to stop. I have the perfect person for you." She ranted. I groaned.
Matchmaker Alice.
I found out Obsessive Shopping Alice an hour ago when we did go shopping. Oh my confused pineapple, it was a side of Alice I hope not to challenge in the future. One tip for you: when Alice tells you to go try out a shirt, you make sure you try it, or else.
"No its fine, Alice. Emmett is the one for me. He's so sweet and funny. I just love him" Bleh. Lies, I hate lying to Alice. I can't believe I said that about Emmett. I barely know him!
"No, believe me this time. Would you try betting against me? I'm a real psychic." She joked. I laughed a bit. "You know my brother, Edward, right? I think your perfect for him."
I choked. "Your brother; he can form a sentence without being suddenly mad or stuttering?" She nodded. That's funny. I didn't know that.
"Without grammar mistakes?"

Was I ever going to get my sleep? It was torture when the news hit me that Bella and Emmett were going out but its torture having to have your sister and her new best friend giggling in the next room. Plus, Bella was going to be sleeping over. That was her first night here and my family loved her already. It took a whole two week to get them to like Emmett!
I'm dying to find out what their talking about.
"…Edward…"
Oh, I heard my name. I HEARD MY NAME! I can do a happy dance. But wait; was it something good, bad?
Now it was silent. Why was it silent? Maybe they went to sleep. I hope not. I need to hear the rest. If only I actually had a brain to put my ear to the wall and listen to the whole conversation.
Great, bathroom break. I walked to the end of the hall where the bathroom was.
Everything was quiet. And then I heard a loud crash. I turned around frightened. My eyes roamed the hallway looking for any suspects of the loud crash. Nothing.
It came from my bedroom. The crash was from my bedroom. Maybe it was a few papers or it might've been my book bag. I didn't really care about it anymore and shut the door to the bathroom.
I did my thing and closed all the lights and entered my bedroom. I knew it was my book bag. The evidence was on the floor right before me. My bag was on the floor faced down. The books and papers flew out. I picked everything up and stuffed half the stuff in my bag the other half I laid on my desk.
I was already in my boxers when I heard a muffled sound in my closet. Curiously, I opened the closet doors fast and there stood the beautiful Isabella Swan.
A beautiful girl was in my closet? Very hard to believe.
"Uhm, hi." She said innocently.
"Hi." I answered with a smug smile.
I found out that flirting with my best friend's girlfriend was a bad thing but it couldn't hurt.

"I was looking for the bathroom." I said. What other excuse could I come up with? I'm lame, what can I say.
He smirked and I couldn't help but looking at his well-built chest. He smirked even wider. I looked away and bit my lip. "Alice has a bathroom." He announced with a breathtaking smile. I hated that smile. I wanted to slap it off his face and see who'd be laughing by then.
I admit I wanted to know more about him when Alice said he was perfect for me but I didn't mean to go this far. I found out he was actually very intelligent and based on his CD collection, he was interested in classical music. He had a major collection of books. I was surprised to see no perverted posters on his wall and I was expecting to see a great of a mess in his bedroom.
He was hot. It seemed like he was great person too but holy cow was he hot. I bit on my bottom lip when I took a look at his bare chest again. He worked out and dang did it show.
It took me a minute's notice to find out I didn't reply and was drooling. "Um, I didn't know that. So I just opened any door." He nodded and lent out a hand. I took it and he helped me out of his closet.
I stood around awkwardly, not knowing if I should leave or not. Was he going to say something? I was praying he would let me go.
I just don't get Edward Cullen.
A/N: Very sorry again for the short chapter! I'm sorry for the lack of update as I told you about financial problems and homework and such. Hopefully I can update much faster. Don't worry I'm starting on the chapter right now. When I start something I ALWAYS finish.
I can't stress how much I want you guys to review.
If you review I'll dedicate the next chapter to you. Yeah, that was a bribe.
I'm always forgetting BUT, thanks to my awesome Beta, puasaluoma! I don't know how I'll be able to write this story without her. THIS SOTRY WAS not EDITED BECAUSE I GAVE IT TO MY BETA BUT SHE HASN'T GIVEN ME THE BETA'D COPY YET.
i promise to replace the chapter aand terribly sorry about the lack of update.
