CHECK YES JULIET

CHAPTER 4

Check yes Juliet
I'll be waiting
Wishing, wanting
Yours for the taking
Just sneak out
And don't tell a soul goodbye

I smiled at the memory of the beginning of our secret romance.

Only Rose, Emmett, Alice and Jasper knew about us doing this. My parents didn't know that I was seeing Edward behind their backs, except for that one time a few days later.

Yeah, only a few days later I was caught with Edward.

That sucked, and it really meant we had to be careful.

Luckily, Rose and Alice's parents didn't say they couldn't see their boyfriends after Charlie actually called them. But they had strict curfews – only Fridays and Saturdays could they see them late. Sundays were no no's (even though we all lied to our parents and saw them anyway during the afternoons), and only a little bit after school as long as homework was done before their parents got home from work.

My mom confronted me calmly about the situation, and she didn't exactly agree with Charlie, but she still went along with it and forbade me from seeing Edward. Traitor! Shouldn't she be on my side?

My phone buzzed again. A third picture. Edward with the guys laughing. They seem to be having a good time. Underneath the picture, Alice texted, We're having fun, but you being here would be so much better! LOL! Edward misses you a lot. He said to tell you he loves you and the songs are still dedicated to you, me and Rose. :) ~ A

I texted back, Miss you all! I really do wish I went. I wanted to really sneak out my window when Edward came around. But I can't... too much of a risk. Tell Edward thank you for the song dedications... I love that he and the guys do that for us. And tell him I love him, too. ~ B

I was still pissed at my dad for grounding me. I'm missing out on a great party with my friends and my boyfriend. My phone buzzed again.

I did! Bella... you have no idea how much this guy loves you. I think it was sweet that he wanted to sneak you out, but I think it was right that you stayed. Though I would love for you to be here. So many bitches hitting on Edward. ~ A

What? ! ~ B

Yeah! But don't worry, he's not going with it. He actually looks constipated being around one in particular, haha! :D ~ A

Oh God! I laughed so hard at that last text! Good to know my man is faithful. ~ B

Guys are going back on stage... the break's over. Only another hour more, then we'll be seeing you. Tell Charlie you're going over to Rose's house for a girls' night. Love you! Mwah! ~ A

Love you, too~ :* ~ B

The girls and I established a code when mine and Edward's romance started blooming. It was always a girls' night at one of their houses. Well, girls' night at Alice's mean a girls' night at her house. A girls' night at Rose's means a night with our boyfriends. Then we'd regroup at Alice's for a real sleepover.

I thought back to one of the best moments I had with Edward... this was the start of the love we shared... our first kiss...

Check yes Juliet
Here's the countdown:
3,2,1
Now fall in my arms now
They can change the locks
Don't let them change your mind

FLASHBACK:

Only a few days have passed since my fight with my dad, since he put his foot down about me not being allowed to see Edward or the guys. But I wasn't gonna listen to him. So the girls and I kept our daily visits to the Cullens' garage to watch them play.

Well, I couldn't go on Wednesday. Stupid me signed up to be part of prom committee at my school a few months back, before I met Edward, so now I was stuck at a meeting discussing decorations. A venue was decided on in November, but now it came down to theme, type of decorations and how much we needed to fill the large ballroom at the hotel in Port Angeles.

I had let Rose and Alice go on home without me, and to tell the guys how sorry I was that I was missing today's practice.

"No biggie. We'll tell Edward," Alice smiled.

I was in the school library until four. It took us an hour and a half to settle disputes on things. Jessica Stanley always had some reason to say no to suggestions because she wanted prom to go her way. What was the point of us even suggesting things, bitch? If you wanted us to just be your slaves and work out the cost of the plans you wanted, then just tell us!

The bus ride back to Forks wasn't eventful. It also didn't take too long since not many people were getting on or off at the time I was on it. Usually when school lets out or during rush hour, it's packed and the bus makes numerous stops. I was off the bus a little before five. Thank God it was light out still!

When I stepped off, my intention was to just head straight home. I'd be home around the time my dad comes home if I walked. But my plans changed when I saw Edward leaning against the trunk of his car that was parked right in front of the bus stop.

I was stunned! My mouth surely was on the ground. He was just standing there, grinning his cocky smile.

"What are you doing here?" I asked, still shocked.

"Picking you up," he replied.

"Why?"

"'Cause I wanted to. I missed seeing you today, and when Rose and Alice mentioned that you were staying late after school and were gonna miss practice, I suggested that I'd pick you up at the bus stop so you didn't have to walk alone."

"How long have you been waiting here? 'Cause I could have been home already or still at school."

"Since the girls got to the house. We decided to cancel practice because only Jasper and Emmett would be able to play for their girls, and I wouldn't. Totally unfair, Bella."

"You waited for me for an hour. You had all intentions of picking me up even if it was four in the afternoon or six at night," I laughed. "That was very sweet of you, Edward. I really appreciate the gesture."

"So... Bella, would you like a ride home?" Edward asked politely, holding out his hand.

I playfully bit my lip in thought and I could see it was affecting Edward greatly. "Yes please," I finally answered. He sighed and I took his hand. Edward led me to the passenger side of his car, opened the door for me and helped me in like a real gentleman. I don't know why my dad thinks Edward's a bad guy, 'cause he sure as hell is a genuine caring kind of guy who's practically worshipping me.

During the ride back we talked a little about why I was at school late. Let's just say I mostly complained. Edward just chuckled at the whole big deal of prom.

"Why are you laughing about why we're making it a big deal?"

He laughed again. "'Cause as much as it is a rite of passage in high school, it is, when it all comes down to it, just another school dance that's just a bit fancier."

"Did you actually go to prom?"

"Well... no."

"Ha! Then you have no reason to make fun of it."

"Alright. So I didn't actually go to my prom. Just hearing about preparations and ticket sales, and, ugh, tuxedos... made me not want to go. Plus, I, uh, didn't have a date."

"Really? I fuckhot guy like you didn't have a date?" I shouted.

"A lot of the girls in my school were fake bitches. Most likely pursued me just to be seen with me because I was, as you put it, fuckhot, and not really for me as a person. I was a bit of a loner who didn't have many friends, but was only flirted with because I was cute. They actually sneered at my personality and appearance behind my back and sucked up to me when in front of me. Plus I'm not the kind of guy who wanted to sample the entire pool... I wanted to find someone who actually wanted to be with me, not just seen around with me. And I didn't like anyone from my school. So I didn't go to prom."

Before I could actually ask him if he wanted to go with me, since he had told me he really liked me, the car started sputtering and smoking from the hood of the car.

"Oh fuck!" Edward seethes and pulls over. When he turns the engine off, he gets out and leaves me in the car to examine what's wrong with the car. Only a minute later did he step away from the hood and angrily walked to the trunk where he got something out of it, and returned back to the front, a dirty rag in his hand. Uh oh! This doesn't look good.

I got out and saw Edward puttering around with the insides of the hood of the car. "What happened?" I asked quietly.

"Urgh! Just that I think oil was burning. Damn it! I gotta call a tow truck," he grumbles. He pulls out his cell and calls the town's tow truck company, directing them to where we are.

"'About an hour,' they say," Edward says angrily. "What the hell? How many cars are in need of a tow service in a small ass town like this?"

"I'm sorry."

Edward lets out a deep breath. "No, I'm sorry, love. I'm acting like an angry bastard. Don't think I'm angry with you."

"I wasn't, but I don't want to piss you off more by saying the wrong thing."

"You won't say the wrong thing, babe. If you want to head home, I can call Em or Jazz to pick you up."

"No," I smile. "I want to stay right here with you."

"What about being home in time? Won't your dad be pissed?"

"He'll probably call me wondering where I am and I can just say I'm with Rose or Alice, saying I'm gonna hang with them for a little while tonight since I wasn't with them this afternoon. My parents knew I was staying late after school for the prom thing."

"OK," he grinned. He took my hand, and my fingers automatically linked with his. It felt like everytime we touched a million sparks were flying through my arm to my body… to my heart.

"So how long would you say we'd have to say goodbye to Shelby?" I wondered aloud. "I mean, with our date coming up, we probably won't be able to use her."

"Shelby?"

"Yeah, isn't this a Shelby Mustang GT 500?"

"Yeah... how did you know?"

"'Cause I saw the Mustang symbol," I pointed behind me. "And it said Shelby GT 500 in the back."

Edward just laughed aloud, which led me to laugh. "Plus Rose is a car fanatic," I added. "Sometimes she only had car magazines to read when Alice hoarded all the fashion ones."

"I don't know... depends on what the mechanic says. I have a back up plan. Hey... would you like to learn more about cars?"

"Umm... sure."

For a few minutes, Edward pointed out all the things about a car's engine and all other technical stuff. I absorbed it all in, too. I loved it when he got so into something and loved to just go on and on about it. I could just listen to him talk for hours... his voice was just so smooth.

Then unexpectedly, Edward leans into the car and swipes up some oil and dabs it on my nose. I didn't see it coming until I felt something weird there. When I saw Edward laughing hysterically and with oil on his fingers, I just gasped playfully and knew it was war. I swiped up some oil and smudged it along his cheek. Fuck, his face was so smooth. No stubble.

We were dabbing oil all over our faces and necks, and then Edward pulled out the big guns and started tickling me. I'm extremely ticklish and I'm just shrieking with laughter. I was hugged from behind, Edward's fingers running across my ribs, and then I'm pulled down backward onto some grass from a lawn. I'm still being tickled, me fighting back, trying to tickle him, but failing.

Finally I'm really laughing out, "Stop!" because I could hardly breathe. Edward relents and we're just lying there face to face, eyes on eachother, gazing in. Obviously something more is happening between us. Then we're both leaning in... and his lips graze mine softly. Then we press our lips together just a bit firmer. Damn, I love his lips!

Nothing transcends into passionate kisses because we were interrupted. A car honks next to us and we break apart.

It's my dad. Fuck!

I'm caught and I know I'm in trouble. "Get in the car, Isabella Marie Swan!" Charlie yells. Ugh! He pulled out my full name in front of Edward. I can see Charlie giving Edward the stare down to freak him out, but by the straight face Edward has on, he's not giving in, which angers Charlie more. We both stand and I whisper, "I'll talk to you tonight. Thanks for the ride." Then I stand on my toes and kiss Edward's cheek, lingering 'cause I want to and I can, and to just piss Charlie off more. I see Edward smile when I pull back.

I get in the car after retrieving my bag from Edward's broken down car, and before I can even get on my seatbelt, Charlie pulls away. What a cop he is. Shouldn't he be enforcing the law and having people buckle up before they drive?

I turn my head behind me and watch as Edward gets smaller and smaller with distance. Just as we're about to turn, I see the tow truck pull up. I'm glad he didn't have to wait alone much longer.

Then we pull into my driveway. I get out of the car and walk to the front door, opening it. I didn't realize how much time had flown because it was after six and my mom was home. I got caught up in my time with Edward.

"Isabella! Do you know how worried your mother and I have been? I called your phone when I didn't see that you were home and you didn't answer. Then I called Rosalie and Alice, and they said you weren't with them." Ugh, Rose... Alice... why didn't you lie for me? "Then I drive around to see if you were walking home from the bus stop and then I see you with him! Why did you disobey me and see that boy?" my dad yelled. God, barely in the door and my dad is already yelling at me. Can't I take off my sweater and put down my bag, Dad?

"'Cause I wanted to, Dad. It was late when I got off the bus and Edward was so kind to pick me up at the bus stop so I didn't have to walk home by myself."

"Then why weren't you home?"

"Edward's car broke down halfway home. We were both waiting for the tow truck to arrive."

"Didn't look that way to me, young lady."

"So what, Dad? We kissed. Is it against the law to kiss the boy I really like?"

"No, but I told you you weren't allowed to see that Cullen boy. He's trouble!"

"How do you really know that? You don't even know him! He hasn't done anything wrong! I told you that!" I screamed, tears falling down my face.

"What if he does and you're there when he does? I don't want my daughter getting into trouble. That looks bad on my part with me being a father and the Chief of Police, Isabella!" Charlie yelled right back.

"Charlie..." my mom started.

"No, Renee... don't 'Charlie' me."

"I'm going upstairs," I said, turning my back to head to my room.

"If I find you with him one more time, Isabella, you'll be punished. I will make sure you never see Edward Cullen again."

I didn't bother answering him and went straight to my room, slamming my door shut with force. I even locked it so they couldn't come in if they wanted to. I threw down my bag and pulled out my pajamas to get changed. I did my homework for the rest of the night, then watched old Everybody Loves Raymond episodes. When it was around ten, there was a knock on my door and it was my mom saying goodnight. I didn't reply or open the door. I was just as angry with her as with my dad. She took his side and also didn't continue her thought when my dad shut her down. A united front they're supposed to be? More like my dad controlling the yelling and punishing part of raising me. He always had, and my mom let him, never once saying what she wanted in an argument involving me and my father.

A few minutes later I heard a rat-tat-tat against my window. I jumped at the sound and turned to my window.

It was Edward.

I got up off my bed and opened the window enough for him to climb in. "What are you doing here?" I whispered.

"Here to see you, of course," he whispered back.

"Why?"

"Because I want to. Because I really like you. And because I wanted to give you a kiss goodnight." Then he leans down and kisses me softly.

"Thank you."

"So... how much trouble are you in?"

"Loads. Final warning that if I see you again, I'm grounded – for like ever."

"Then I guess we can't be with each other anymore," he sighed sadly. He was about to turn away, but I pulled his arm to stop him.

"You know what's pissing me off? You coming here because you wanted to see me and then go and push me away. What's with that, Edward?" I ask.

"We can't be together. I'm not worth it; I don't want to be the reason why you get in trouble." He stepped a bit away from me. I didn't like it.

"What if I like getting into trouble?" I smirk.

"Bella..." Edward he starts.

"Look, Edward, I don't care what my dad says. I told you that already. I didn't expect for us to be caught so soon. But I don't think we're a mistake. I'm not gonna listen to my dad and I'm gonna keep seeing you and keep hanging out with Emmett and Jasper. I'm not gonna change my mind about us. I want this. I want you."

"Really?" he smiled.

"Yes!"

Then Edward took two steps toward me and cradled my head in his hands before capturing my lips in one of the hottest kisses EVER! I've been kissed before, but not like this. This kiss had something behind it.

I felt Edward's tongue run across my bottom lip to beg for entrance, and I granted it by opening my mouth a bit. Our tongues tangled together as we both held onto eachother for dear life. I didn't want the kiss to end and I didn't want to let him go, just in case this was all my imagination.

Our kisses slowed down to chaste pecks and then Edward pulled back. I desperately wanted to yank his head to mine again, but we needed to stop.

"Will you be my girlfriend, Bella?" Edward whispered.

My smile grew ten-fold and I nodded enthusiastically. He leaned down and kissed me sweetly on the mouth one more time.

"I'm really happy, Edward."

"Me, too, baby."

A.N.: So what did you think? I bet lots of you are gonna be angrier with Charlie, but swooning at the ending! LOL!
