Chapter 4

Hopefully he wasn't mad.

I stopped halfway to the exit, "I'll be right back. I'm going to use the ladies room," I told him.

He nodded, "I'll wait here."

I smiled at him before I made my way towards the restrooms. I was just about to enter when someone grabbed my arm. I looked down at the hand on my arm before I looked up to find Edward looking down at me.

He looked around him quickly before he pulled me aside, "What are you doing?" he asked.

I pulled my arm away and looked at him confused, "What are you talking about?" I asked confused.

"What are you doing here with Robert Pattinson?" he asked a bit possessive.

"He asked me out to lunch," I said with a shrug.

"Lunch was nearly four hours ago," he responded back.

"So?" I asked.

"Why are you going out with some guy behind my back?" he asked through his teeth.

"Why are you going out with some girl behind my back?" I asked back as I crossed my arms over my chest.

"She's my co-star," he stated simply.

"Well he just got me a job," I told him.

"What?" he asked perplexed.

I sighed, "Look I'll come over to your room later to explain…unless you don't want me to?" I said cautiously.

He looked back at his table warily, "I'll see you tonight," he told me.

"Fine," I told him before I decided to skip going to the bathroom and just leave. I waited until he was back at his table to walk back towards the exit. I smiled at Rob as I approached him.

"Ready to go?" he asked.

"Yup," I responded back as he took my jacket from the coat rack and helped me put it on.

We ran past the paparazzi again and got into his car. "Wow its really late," he commented once he saw the time on the dashboard.

"Yeah I guess we talked a lot," I said as I buckled up.

"You're easy to talk to," I looked up at him. His face was inches from mine. I pursed my lips as his eyes traveled down to them. He leaned in slowly making my heart sped after than a bullet in my chest. His delicate lips gently brushed mine and I was suddenly in total bliss. Oddly enough I never felt like this when I kissed Edward.

I slowly brought my hand up to the back of his neck as I softly kissed him back as if his lips were fragile. He brought his hand up to the back of my ear so that his thumb was lightly caressing my cheek. I slowly slid my hand up into his silky smooth wild hair and deepened the kiss.

There was suddenly a flash of light all around us. We pulled away to find the paps all around the car taking pictures of us kissing. "I'm sorry," I looked over at Robert to find his cheeks bright pink.

I bit my lip lightly with a small smile, "Its fine there's nothing to be embarrassed about," I told him as I lightly placed my hand on his. He ran his free hand through his hair and looked down still embarrassed.

I moved my body a bit more towards him and lightly placed my hand on his shoulder, "Hey," I told him.

He slowly moved his gaze to me, "I'm not mad…or embarrassed…there's no reason to be. It happens all the time. There's nothing you can do about them. It's like having a stalker…except you have these for life."

He smiled lightly at my joke but it didn't quite reach his eyes, "I'm just…I'm sorry I got you into this mess. I'll understand if you don't want to see me anymore," he said looking down again.

I pursed my lips in a tight line before I lifted his chin up with my index finger and quickly caught his lips with mine. I felt comfortable doing this. Even though I was going to Edward's tonight. Even though I was 'seeing' another man. Wow maybe I'm a slut.

I go from having sex with one man just the night before and now I'm kissing a different man the afternoon after that. Hmm…sure sounds like a slut. He brought his hand up and lightly placed it behind my back. I ran my fingers through his hair slowly and gently.

Gosh what if Edward would see this? He'd probably call me a bitch and break up with me. Well might as well be now instead of later. I pulled away and smiled at him, "The paps aren't going to make me stop seeing you."

He slowly pulled his hand away from my back and started up the car, "I better get you back to your car."

We talked a bit on the way back. It's easy to talk to him too. I unbuckled myself and turned to him with a smile, "Thanks for lunch," I told him.

"My pleasure…should I go over to your place tomorrow?" he asked.

I hadn't even had Edward over my house but I was going to let Robert go. If he ever found that out he'd be upset. I don't understand why…I mean we're not really even a couple. "Yeah umm how about at lunch time? I can make lunch and I'm sure I'll be awake by then," I told him.

He chuckled lightly, "Okay well I'll call you before I get there just in case."

I nodded with a smile, "Okay see you tomorrow," I opened my door and got out just to have the paps all around me.

"Bella?" I looked over the crowd to see a black eyes Jacob making his way through the crowd.

I stopped two steps away from the car door, "I said to leave me alone Jake." The rest of the paps started to back away from me once they realized who I was.

He was still walking towards me, "I meant it when I said I would make you sorry you were born," I said in a tight voice as I took a step back.

"Is something wrong?" Robert's voice came from behind me.

I looked behind me to see him looking over at me from over the car. I looked back at Jake, "Kind of."

"Look I'm sorry about what happened earlier," he said as he grabbed my wrist.

I looked at him with a bewildered expression, "Sorry? You slapped me across the face. And if I remember correctly I told you never to touch me," I yanked my hand away from him, "Again."

Robert walked around the car and stood next to me protectively, "Look I suggest you leave before I call security," he told Jake.

"Is this the guy you stayed with last night?" he asked in anger.

"No I didn't stay with anyone last night! Now leave me alone already!" I yelled at him desperately.

He clenched his jaw at Robert then glared at me, "This isn't over," he said as he started backing away.

"It had never even started!" I told him as I took a step forward, "You have to get through that stupid head of yours that I wouldn't date you even if you were the last man on earth," I said in frustration.

He stopped walking backwards and took a step forward in anger, "One more step and I swear I'll give you another black eye," I warned.

He stopped and briskly turned around and walked away. I sighed and ran my finger through my hair. "Are you okay?" Rob asked as he placed a hand on my waist.

I slowly turned around to look at him, "I've been better," I told him.

He gently tucked a strand of hair behind my ear, "Did you really give him a black eye?" he asked a bit amused.

I smiled up at him lightly, "Yeah…you definitely don't want to get on my bad side."

"Are you going to fine to drive home?" he asked.

Well I'm not exactly driving home, "Yeah I'll be fine."

"Okay well I'll see you tomorrow," he gently leaned in and kissed my forehead lightly, "Good night. Sweet Dreams," he said once he pulled away.

"Night," I told him before I slowly turned around and walked back to my car.

Time to go face Edward and his wrath.
