BPOV
Honestly, I loved college. I had been here three days and I loved it already. Berkeley was a hodge-podge of different people. The campus had more people than the entire town of Forks. Classes started in a week. We had come earlier like a lot of people to get settled and explore the campus.
They had an amazing campus, with a great library. The city of Berkeley was great, there were little coffee shops on every corner, great scenery, and a quaint feel, even if it was a bigger city.
Campus had a great athletic department, and the buildings were state of the art, so naturally, Rose Alice, and I went out as soon as we could to check them out. The track was amazing, it was cooler outside and sunny so we decided to stay on the outdoor track.
I sat on the ground in the middle, there weren't a lot of people there so it was peaceful. Rosalie and Alice sat down too and started to stretch. I laid back on my hands and twisted my neck around. I could feel the sun on my skin. I missed this, the sun, the warm air, the sea breeze. I never got that in Forks, I liked the place, but it was rainy, and dense, and green. To green.
I let my hair down for a little bit and shook it out. It was a great day, and I was itching to be on my feet, to run and just relax. I stretched my legs and wrapped my hair in a ponytail again. I got up and found Rosalie was already on the track, Alice behind her. The sun was hot, and I was going to try to soak up as much Vitamin D as I could. I stripped off my sweats, exposing my spandex shorts underneath. I also took off my running jacket and shirt, so I was down to my sports bra. Rose and Alice were too, I didn't mind. When I was running, I was in my element.
I jumped up and down a couple times to get the blood pumping down my legs. As my shoe touched the asphalt I started running. And it felt good to get back out. I kept up a steady breathing, in through my nose, out through my mouth. I looked straight ahead and started to think about what college was going to be like. I was really aware of everything, so I heard Alices' quick footsteps behind me.
"Bella!" she sang "I would turn your head to the left if I were you, because just about the most gorgeous guy came in." she giggled and nudged at me.
I rolled my eyes and turned my head half-heartedly. What caught my eye had me do a double take and stop dead in my tracks. Alice was right. The most drop-dead gorgeous guy was walking from the entrance gate. Bar-none. And Alice and Rosalie dated hot guys, they had nothing on this. He was like my own David.
His hair was a gorgeous bronze color, it was really unusual. He was pale skin, not like my, but not like a normal Californian. He had a tight under armor shirt on which showed off his chest muscles perfectly. He looked like he was made out of stone. His nose was perfectly straight, his mouth was perfectly aligned. His lips were good enough to… no couldn't think about that. But his eyes, holy shit, his eyes were like burning emeralds, and I could tell from half-way around the track. I couldn't even begin to imagine seeing him close up. He was like everything I dreamed of plus more. Alice giggled in front of me and Rosalie pushed me from behind
"Its not nice to stare Bella!" she whispered teasingly in my ear.
I blushed furiously and started running again. Though I couldn't concentrate, not with him stretching his back muscles and bending down giving me a perfect view of his ass. And even if I internally smacked myself saying, no, you can't stare Bella, I did anyway. I couldn't get enough of him, he was perfect. I was getting closer to him, my breathing went up. A million questions went through my mind. What if he saw me? What would I do if he did? Would I wave? Would I smile? Would I just act indifferent? But all of that was erased when his previously closed eyes opened as I passed…and his jaw slacked while his eyes brightened.
What did I do? I blushed and sped up faster, my eyes were glued to the track and I was furious with myself. When I was with my friends I felt secure. But by myself timid, little, insecure, Bella came out, and I wanted to make a good impression on him. Dammit! Why was I so weak?
"Hey." Said a smooth velvet voice next to me.
I wasn't paying attention, if I had, I wouldn't have freaked out.
Instead I shrieked, my hand flying up to meet his face. I honestly didn't mean to, but the back of my hand met his cheek, him, I actually hit him. Oh. My. God. What did I do!?
I gasped, reeling back to the edge of the track. I was falling and I had successfully twisted my ankle. I saw him reach out and grab my wrist but I was already falling fast, and took him with me.
"Oof!" apparently the breath was knocked out of him.
"Ow, ow, ow! Oh my god! I am so sorry! Ah, I hurt you, oh, are you hurt? I'm sorry! Oh shit! I cant believe this!" I blubbered at him, I would have kept going but he put his hand over my mouth.
Well, that successfully shut me up. I could smell his sweet breath, I could see his burning emerald eyes, I could see a breathtaking crooked grin on his flawless face. And I wondered, could this be possible?
"No, no, no! I'm sorry! God, it was my fault, I shouldn't have snuck up on you. You said ow, are you hurt? I'm studying to be a doctor, so, I might be helpful." He crookedly grinned at me again and my heart fluttered.
A doctor! My insides did a happy dance.
"Uh…I think I'm fine thanks, oh but your not, your face is red!" he chuckled and rubbed his face tenderly.
"Yeah, you got quite the back hand there, I'm fine really. I've gotten worse from my brothers, it's alright."
"Oh," I breathed, "I'm sorry…again." He laughed, the most beautiful sound in the world.
Before I knew what I was doing I put my hand on the red spot and rubbed my thumb over it. His skin was like silk in my palm. He let out a breathless huff and closed his eyes. His head leaned in my hand before I knew what was happening and I whipped my hand away. He jumped startled and coughed, clearly embarrassed with himself. I looked to the ground blushing.
"Uh, wow, yeah, I'm sorry that was out of line." I said awkwardly.
"It's fine…really." He said softly. I looked up at him. He was like an angel, positively glowing. I couldn't help but smile myself.
"Here, let me help you up." He jumped up and gave me his hand, which I took all to willingly.
It was like an electric shock running through my body. His hand was bigger than mine and wrapped it in his warmth. I loved it already. He hoisted me up only to catch me as my weight gave out on my left ankle. He gently set me back down as I gasped in pain. It throbbed rapidly.
"Here let me get a look at that." He carefully slid my foot out of my running boot and laid it on the ground.
Then he took off my sock and carefully placed my foot in his palms. My back shivered in pleasure, I got that electric shock again. He twisted and turned it, rotating it around to check if it was broken.
"Hmm, I don't think it's broken. That's good, but you'll probably want to ice it again. He rubbed his fingers over my skin, gently caressing my foot. I blushed again, was it stupid that I liked it so much? I suddenly felt self conscious of my scantily clad self, oh well, to late now.
I realized I hadn't found out his name.
"By the way, I didn't catch your name."
"Oh," he stopped what he was doing, "Edward, nice to meet you."
"Bella." I said to him. He smirked
"Bella." He stuck his hand out and I laughed, but shook it anyway.
This man that was holding me, that helped me, that I hit, that I was hitting on, was Edward.
Edward, Edward, Edward.
