Chapter 4: Accidents

"Three days! Three days!" I awoke to someone screaming. My eyes fluttered open and I saw flashes of blond and black hair, so turned over.

"Mmm, go away." I moaned.

I felt one of them plop down on the bed next to me. Whoever they were, they pulled the pillow away from me. "Bite me." I said and buried my head in my folded arms.

"Oh, that's right," Rosalie said. "She was up late last night getting naughty."

My eyes shot open and I popped up in bed. "I..I was not."

"Oh, you totally were. Don't try to deny it." Rose says back.

The problem was, I wasn't sure if they were talking about Jacob. I mean… last night had been a little out of control. Jake and I went out last night and had a really good time. We kissed outside on my front porch for a good five minutes, and then he asked if we wanted to go somewhere where we could be alone, if you get what I mean. I was really getting annoyed with his constant pushing and nagging for sex. I'm just not ready to get that intimate with him. Hell, I don't even know if I love him. If I did love him, why was I running around with Tyler behind his back?

Speaking of Tyler… things may have gotten a little bit out of control with him last night… I would say that he got in between first and second base. See, when I got home, Mike told me that Renee and Charlie had gone out for dinner then went to see a movie and when I got upstairs, Tyler called. I answered and he asked if I wanted to come over to his place. I agreed and met him there. It was only then that I realized he asked me to come over because no one was there.

Anyway, to make a long story short, we ended up in on his bed where he was on top of me. We were making out for a while, but then it finally became clear that he wanted more than that. I let him get my shirt off before I stopped him and went home.

When I got home, I started thinking… If I was so in love with Jake the way I thought I was, then why did I feel the need to cheat on him with Tyler? What was wrong with me?

"Okay, maybe I was. But he's my boyfriend. I'm aloud to."

"Well, you need to get up and get ready because we're going to make sure everything is ready for the pageant." Alice responds.

I sighed then turned and rolled out of bed, grabbed some clean clothes and tripped on my way to the bathroom.

After waking up really late this morning, I mostly just hung out around the house and helped Esme. Later that afternoon, I pulled on some basketball shorts and tennis shoes. I told Esme where I was going and walked down the driveway before I started jogging.

I was passing a house on my road that had a bluish color and I saw that a really nice red convertible was sitting on the curb. I let out a low whistle at the car before I realized who was sitting in it. Although, I wasn't paying attention to who was sitting into the driver's or back seat. My eyes were locked on the gorgeous brunette tripping her way up the walkway towards the front door.

It was Bella, of course. I hadn't seen her in almost a week so it was nice to finally get a glance of her. I guess I wasn't paying much attention, because the next thing I knew, I was on the ground of the street, cursing at the road rash I just got on the front of my left leg.

"Hey! Hey, are you okay?" My head shot up at the beautiful music coming out of her mouth. I was glad that I didn't have an even bigger audience since the convertible had already driven away.

I laughed a little and glanced back down at my leg then up at her. "Yeah, I'm fine. Just tripped."

She giggled. "Usually I'm the one in that situation."

"Looks like the situation is reversed." She held out her hand to help me up which I took eagerly, and stood up. She kept a hold of my hand and started dragging me towards her house.

"Bella, what are we doing?" I asked, not that I'm objecting to her taking charge.

"I'm going to take you to my bathroom and fix your leg."

I laughed. "It's fine. It doesn't hurt anymore, swear."

She rolled her eyes and continued to drag me through her front door and up the stairs to her hallway bathroom. She let go of my hand and ordered me to sit on the edge of the bathtub while she started to rummage through the medicine cabinet. She yanked out a bottle of peroxide, Neosporin, and a bunch of band-aids. She sat down on the closed lid toilet and pulled my leg onto her lap and winced at the amount of blood. She started breathing through her mouth.

I laughed. "Leave it." I insisted.

"I can't leave it; it needs to be cleaned so it doesn't get infected." With her comment, I shut up and let her continue. I watched her as she very carefully wet a cotton ball with peroxide and dabbed it over my leg. I made my leg flinch and my face contort in pain as a joke. She immediately looked up at me, shock in her eyes, but as soon as she saw my humorous expression, she hit me playfully.

"That wasn't very nice."

"I thought it was funny." I said back. She just shook her head, a grin on her face as she continued. I had the urge to reach across and move a part of her hair that kept falling into her face, but I resisted. This girl already had two boyfriends. It's not like she needed another one. She was beautiful though… And every time I saw her smile, I got this really weird feeling pulse through me. I couldn't understand why… I never got this feeling before when I knew her, but it was a feeling that I was very fond of. I was still fighting the overpowering urge to reach over and feel the perfect skin of her cheek…

She put on some Neosporin next, and then put a few band-aids on. "There," She said, satisfied. She looked up at me, smiling, but I was still deep in thought. She realized this and her face became more serious.

"Bella…" I said her name with longing. She must have understood and leaned forward a little, then stole a glance back at me to see if it was okay. When I didn't object, she moved forward more, but not towards my face. She just rested her head on my chest and placed her hand on my left arm. She closed her eyes and sighed in contentment. I wasn't sure how to respond to this, considering the whole two boyfriend thing, but I couldn't help but put one arm around the middle of her back and one in the back of her head, in her hair.

We sat like this for a while until Bella moved herself so that she was completely on my lap, sitting side ways. As soon as she turned, I put my hand on her cheek gingerly. She looked at me cautiously before lowering her head quickly and pressing her lips to my own. In that very second, everything I previously knew flooded down the drain. I couldn't think or breathe. I was kissing Isabella Swan and it was the most amazing kiss I'd ever experienced.

She shifted in her position so that she was sitting straight on my lap, her legs wrapped around my waist and her arms tightly wrapped around my neck. I placed one of my arms around her waist, securing her to my body and held her face in my other hand. After getting a breath of air, I realized that this was very wrong. I pulled away from her a little too quickly, causing myself to fall back into the bathtub with Bella landing on top of me.

She giggled and pecked me again. I attempted to pull away from her again, but I just couldn't. Even though this was the most uncomfortable position I'd ever been in, I could not get myself to move. This woman seriously put a spell on me or something. Everything about her-hair, arms, smells… God, I loved the way she smelled.

After another few minutes, I decided that this really needed to stop. Bella needs to figure out what she wants. This just isn't right. She's lying to everyone and this just isn't her. I pulled away for sure this time, moving Bella off of me and getting out of the bathtub. "Bella, we can't do this… You need to figure out what it is you want. You can't keep lying to everyone like this."

She sighed and got out of the tub herself. She looked flushed and upset. "I know," She looked down and sniffled.

"Hey," I said and embraced her in my arms. "Bell, you just need to think things over. You can't have Jacob, that other guy, and me. You need to take your pick and kick the others to the curb, ya know? You need to get rid of all the lies you have in your life so you aren't keeping the truth stored up inside of you."

She noded against my chest, pulled away and wiped her eyes. "I know. I just… I don't know where to start."

"Start small," I suggested. "It's not like you have to do everything all at once."

"Yeah," She said then looked up, meeting my eyes. "I'm sorry."

"Oh, there's absolutely no reason to apologize for that." I insisted then grinned down at her.

That made her smile then let out a small giggle. "Yeah, that was a pretty good kiss, wasn't it?"

"Pretty good? I thought it was more along the lines of amazing, or excellent, or brilliant…"

"Alright, it was amazingly brilliant and excellently beautiful. Happy?"

"Very." We smiled at each other goofily for a few seconds then Bella walked me down the stairs and to the door. I turned and look at her, wanting more than anything to kiss her again. I had to try my absolute hardest to resist, but then I looked at her lips and remembered how they felt against my own. I couldn't hold back, anymore and leaned down to kiss her softly. She kissed me back, and pulled away after a couple seconds. I smiled then hugged her before I turned and left.
