3. Plans & Games.

'What do you mean slumber party? We don't sleep!' I threw my hands up in exasperation at Alice's ludicrous idea.

Edward and I had got back a while ago. The tension in the car sat so thick amongst us that you could almost cut it. I don't see why I had anything to feel awkward about, we only looked into each others eyes…and got completely lost in the moment. Nothing major. When we got back, Edward insisted that he needed to hunt which was a lie because his eyes were just as golden as mine. I mean, I should know, I've looked at him enough. Rosalie, Alice and I decided to chill in Rose's room for the hour before school started. All Alice has spoken about is a slumber party which we can't even slumber at.

Rose carefully applied a layer of blood red nail polish to my toe nails concentrating only on that and nothing else.

'Duh! Of course I know we don't sleep but it'd be fun. We could sit in Pajama's and speak all night just like humans do. You don't necessarily have to sleep.' Alice explained shaking her head at my reflection in the mirrored wall.

'You know,' Rose said hoisting herself from my feet, 'that could be pretty fun. We actually haven't attempted this yet.'

'Hey presto. Someone actually see's the point in this. Thank you for your agreement Rose.' Alice exclaimed glaring slyly at me.

'Is there any point in me arguing about this?' I questioned knowing that she'd probably 'seen' my answer.

Alice held a pair of plaid pajama shorts to her thighs and spun around to face me with a devilish smile.

'Nope there's absolutely no point cause I already seen it so nah!' she said sticking her tongue out like a child, pinging the shorts in my direction.

'Fine.' I huffed and lay my head back on Rose's double bed.

Even though I'd barley known these two girls for 24 hours, they felt like my sisters or my very best friends. I felt so comfortable around them and completely at ease. If this is what it's like to live in a coven then I definitely would not mind.

'Okay, so, back to topic slumber party. I'm thinking we should go on a shopping trip for pajama's' Alice started bouncing around the room at vampire speed. I snapped my head to her attention.

'You have Pajama's Alice.' I whined throwing the plaid shorts at her face. Rose laughed.

'Girls, I'm up for whatever. Right now I'm going to see my hubby. Ciao!' Rose left me in the room with a crazed Alice.

'There not the right pajama's. Can you really see me walking around in these?' She said wrinkling her nose in distaste as she flung them at the door.

'Why d'you buy them then?' I asked her, 'and don't give me - because they were on sale and cute at the time.'

'That didn't even sound like me silly and yes, that's exactly what I would have said. Every one needs a pair of plaid pajama pants-'

'Even people that don't tend to sleep. I have my very own pair too.' I interjected sarcastically rolling my eyes. Alice let out an elated giggle and planted her self beside me cross legged.

'You're funny Bella. We can talk about this later because right now, I need to ask you a question.' Her face took on a serious look. I propped myself up against the gargantuan headboard waiting for her to continue.

'When you came back with Edward, Jasper noticed that you to were extremely uncomfortable around each other. What happened?'

I sighed. 'I'm surprised you didn't see this in a vision.'

'I was being occupied…Anyways that's not the point. Please answer the question.' She pleaded widening her eyes to affect my decision. I slumped.

'Okay well in my apartment we had this weird moment. I don't know what happened exactly. We were both standing there looking at this book and then our eyes met and I felt lost but at the same time it all felt right if you get me.' I said trying my hardest to choose the right words.

She seemed to understand and nodded.

'So why all the awkwardness when you both came in?' she probed. I didn't know how to answer the question because I didn't know the answer myself.

'I have no idea.' I replied shrugging.

'Eddie boy's an ass hole sometimes but I'm 110% sure he's fully into you.' She grinned tapping her temple.

I could feel my lips part at her statement. She had a vision?! Oh great! So how am I supposed to look at him now without feeling stupid? He's probably seen it too.

'Way to go to make things less awkward Alice.' I stuck my thumbs up.

'That's what I'm here for. Come on, we got to go to school now sugar plum.'

I laughed at the name she just called me and darted out the room behind her. I really should have been paying attention because I went smack into Edward's chest. The impact forced me to ground with an almighty bang. Edward ran over to me and helped me up. I ignored the buzz that numbed my fingers when I touched his palm and hoisted myself up. Before this moment, I'd never experienced pain as a vampire but here I was, rubbing my butt.

'I'm really sorry. Are you okay?' his voice came out in a frantic rush. I waved the words off.

'I'm… good.' I grimaced at the words. That was the complete opposite to how my left butt cheek felt.

'Did I hurt you?' he asked pursing those luscious lips of his. Shut up Bella.

'No. Seriously Edward, I'm fine.' I reassured him smiling. He seemed torn on whether to believe me.

'Err can I give you a ride to school today?

Well that was unexpected. I nodded and I bet my non existent life that I had a goofy ass smile on my face. Edward must have seen it because his face beamed with his trade mark; that insanely hot crooked grin of his.

'I'll meet you down stairs in five minutes. Just need to change first.' He said gesturing to yesterdays clothes.

'Kay.' I replied in really dazed tone and ran down the Cullen's stair case fastening my coat buttons up. Wow, I'd never actually taken note of what Edward wore. I always looked at his face. But now I'd seen his muscular chest emphasized in that tight blue v-neck sweater, I doubted that I'd be able to keep myself from ogling when he came down. The boy was perfection. I was only vaguely aware of Jasper until he put a hand on my shoulder.

'You're driving me crazy with your lustful thoughts Bella.' He informed me timidly.

'What are you talking about? I was only thinking off…' my thoughts replayed Edward's chest. I wonder what it'd look like bare and sparkling in the light.

'You're doing it again.' He groaned and set a calm atmosphere. I felt embarrassed about my thoughts and even more thankful at the fact of Edward not hearing me.

'Much appreciated Jazz. Wont happen again.' I doubted that very much.

'No problem. Do you want to ride with me and Alice today?' he asked obviously out of kindness.

'No thanks. Edward offered to give me a lift.' I answered looking up at the murky clouds. Jasper let out a low whistle.

'Boys got it bad.' He said before getting up and walking to the shocking yellow Porsche in the garage. Was everyone trying to make me nervous today? Why did everyone keep saying this? Can they not see I find it hard enough to form one puny coherent sentence when I talk to him?

'What are you thinking so much about?' I looked up to see Edward towering over me with an unfathomable expression on his face. Slowly my eyes trailed down to the grey knitted shirt he wore under his pea coat. God did he look edible. My breathing became heavy as I bit my lip. I'm sure he heard the change in tempo as his eyes failed in hiding his amusement.

'Oh you know the usual.' My voice sounded shaky even in my own ears.

'Yeah thanks for clearing that up' he retorted heavy on the sarcasm and headed off to his silver Volvo.

I happily trundled along after him like some sort of love sick teenager. Jeez Edward was actually starting to make me feel more human. Is it weird that I feel strangely drawn to him? Maybe he has this affect on all women. I'd have to make sure my emotions weren't written on my face though I'm sure it'd be a lost cause.

The inside of his car was kept in a spick and span condition. Not one spec of dust could be seen on the dash board. When he started the engine, it sounded very tuned so I gathered he had it fixed on a yearly basis. I already missed driving my Audi when he pulled out from the twists and turns of the forest road onto the highway.

'I apologize for being rude this morning it's just I had a lot to think about.' He ran a hand through his bronze locks. He could really pull of the bed head look.

'Don't worry about it.' I wonder what he had to think about.

'Alice told me you're having some sort of sleep other this weekend? Kind of bizarre for people who can't sleep. ' Edward said chuckling lightly. His laugh made me want join in but I just smiled instead.

'At least somebody see's where I'm coming from. Seriously, have you ever heard of a vampire slumber party?' I saw him shake his head with a grin from the corner of my eye, 'No! Neither have I.'

'I gather it was her idea.' he said finding this amusing.

'I guess anyone could have figured that out.' I continued shaking my head at the thought of her plaid pants. Girl was crazy!

Then something caught up with me. 'Wait, this weekend?'

'Is that a problem?'

I reviewed this weekends plan in my head. I felt stupid for making plans with Angela for shopping. God knows if the sun will be shinning that day. Maybe I could still take her out in my car that night and we could go to some club with Rosalie and Alice. Oh but what about ID?

'Did you hear me?' Edwards annoyed tone brought me back from my plans.

'Yeah I heard you. And no it's not a problem.' I mumbled still thinking about the logics of my idea. Surely Alice can see my resolve now and help me out.

'Oh I get it. You're all deep in thought.' He muttered clearly irritated that he couldn't hear me. Ooo I bet it really ticked him off.

The drive to school took a measly eight minutes thanks to Edward and his insane driving. I finally got what he meant about me being slow. Looks like I'd have to up my speed a notch. Edward made his way to the other side of school whilst I hunted down Alice. Her scent wasn't clear but I could still pick off traces of pine when I inconspicuously sniffed the air. I hope no one actually saw that. My little pixie friend stood waiting outside her English room with a few other people, all of which ignored her like she wasn't there. I kind of felt sorry for her.

'Hey Alice.' I greeted her quietly.

'Bella, Angela won't be in for the rest of the week due to some ear infection. She'll email you on Friday to cancel.' Said Alice under her breathe swiftly. I caught every word.

'Did you like my plan though?' I would have enjoyed going to a club.

'Were still going. Here's the deal; we all go together to the club including the boys and then have our sleep over when we get back.'

I liked the sound of that. Only one thing I wasn't to keen on.

'Are we still going shopping for pajamas?

She grabbed my shoulders and looked me directly in the eye.

'Were going to a club which means we need outfits. So yes, we are still going pajama shopping.' She annunciated each word like I was some incompetent fool. I nodded.

'Bells gonna go in three, two, one.' The bell let out a horrendous shriek signaling first lesson.

'Later Alice.' I waved goodbye.

Mine and Alice's conversation made me extremely late for first period. I received my very first detention ever for after school. The morning lessons were rather boring and dragged on until lunch. I sat with my human clan in the cafeteria aware that Jessica and Lauran were making rude comments about me. None of it bothered me. I couldn't wait for the school day to end. Unfortunately I had no classes with Edward which sucked big time but the time was made up by our 20 questions in the car. To my amazement he waited for my detention to finish. I found out that Edward and I had a lot in common. We both shared the same taste in music and enjoyed classic novels. He asked me to explain in-depth every answer that came out my mouth as he found it hard not knowing the reasons. I actually realized the more I spoke to him, the more interesting he became with his intellect. I didn't mind answering any questions as I wanted him to know more about me and vice versa.

Everyone had decided that tonight would be my night to host a gathering. All the Cullen cars followed me to my 'crib' as Emmett put it. Esme and Carlisle had a business trip to attend to and wouldn't be back till next weekend which meant they weren't available. Emmett and Jasper immediately got animated with my TV screen, hooking their WII up. Guys couldn't go anywhere with out it. Edward joined in with them but I kept seeing his eyes wonder other to Rose and I. Rosalie helped me sort out some spare room for new clothing from our future shopping trips while Alice shredded any item that was more then 10 years old. I admit I had a few garments in there.

'Son of a bitch! This is the fifteenth time the games frozen.' Emmett bellowed at Jasper who enhanced the room's atmosphere with his own laughter.

We'd all huddled into the confined space of my living area to watch Emmett and Jasper play tennis. I couldn't stop laughing; I literally had to hold my sides together before they split with laughter. They both hit the ball with such impractical speed it made the game freeze. Edward had kindly showed them how to hit but got frustrated at the slowness. We girls got a kick out of them being so sucky at it.

'I know, why don't we play a non electronic game?' Alice implied getting up from the sofa to switch the TV off.

'And what do you suggest munchkin?' Emmett couldn't really see the people having fun without today's electronics. Alice glared at him for the use of that nickname.

'Ali, now you know how I feel when you call me Eddie boy.' Edward replied to Alice's thoughts.

'Whatever Eddie! Mmmm, I was thinking that we could play truth or dare.' She suggested with a crafty smile. Two days and I already knew that smile meant nothing good.

'I'm in.' Jasper shouted slamming his hand on the sofa arm. I shot him a don't-disrupt-the-furniture look.

'Same.' Rosalie agreed not hitting my sofa but moving the glass table out the way.

'Deffo. Eddie? Bella?' Emmett asked sitting on the floor Indian style. Rosalie crouched down next to him followed by Jasper and Alice. I planted myself next to Alice.

'I'm game.' I affirmed.

Edward hesitantly knelt down and sat next to me with a resigned sigh, nodding.

We chose to go clockwise; Emmett, Rosalie, Jasper, Alice, Me and Edward. Emmett shocked us all by admitting his obsession with rubber ducks. Rosalie doubled up with laughter at that. Jasper got the worse dare for he had to wear his clothes back to front the whole day of school tomorrow. Alice asked me do a double dare with her. We ran down the corridors of my apartment building making disturbing noises and banging on peoples door. No one caught us thanks to our nifty running. Edward chose truth so Rosalie asked him who he'd rather get with out of Jessica and Lauren. He chose Jess for her thoughts were a tad more bearable then Laurens. Rosalie opted for a dare which involved her wearing her underwear over her jeans. Emmett's idea of course.

During the course of the night we went back to playing a game on the WII. Our gathering ended at 2am with Emmett throwing the WII controller through the wall making a tremendous mess and a huge whole.

'Em, I have to live here! going to kill me now thanks to you.' I whispered harshly while my hand examined the hole. She's so going to notice this in the morning.

'Chill Bells. She can't kill you; just rip her throat out first.' That caused Emmett a loud smack around the head from Rosalie. I looked at Edward whose lip were pressed tightly together battling a laugh.

I put my hands on my hips and glowered at him. Well that pushed him right over the edge for he launched into a musical laughter. Now, if he was laughing at something else, I would have memorized the beautiful sound but he wasn't. He was laughing at a situation that happened to be so unfunny.

'You think this is funny?' I asked, frustration caused my voice to go up a few octaves.

'Bella why don't you just come stay with us while Esme and Carlisle are away? They really wouldn't mind at all.' I stared Edward down before focusing on Alice.

'They would be cool with that?'

'Absolutely.' Rose answered for Alice and went in my room to pack some stuff.

'You,' I jabbed a finger at Emmett, 'can fix this tomorrow and explain why it's like that to Mrs. Allen. I warn you, she's very scary.'

Emmett and Jasper howled at that.

'What? You'll see tomorrow.' Just the thought of Mrs. Allen in a tiff made me quake a little. Edward noticed and draped an arm over my shoulder. I don't think he was aware what these blasé touches did to me. I spent a quarter of a second disputing whether I should remove myself from the embrace or endure it with out going into shock. Truth is, I took pleasure in the warmth that could be felt through my clothes.

'It's settled then. I'll come with Em tomorrow and help with this,' Jasper brought me abruptly back to reality, 'and you can come stay with us.'

I nodded at him. Rose came out with a one suitcase while Alice drag two along. Why I needed all that for a weeks stay I did not know.

'Are you okay?' Edward whispered in my ear tickling the exposed skin on the back of my neck. I craned my head to look at his face and smiled at him.

'Perfect.' His mouth broke out in one of the crooked smile and his arm gripped my shoulder tightly.

In all honesty I was perfect at that moment. I had people around me that I'd grown to love in such a short space of time. It'd cause me sever pain to leave them, especially Edward.
