Disclaimer: I don't own Twilight or Edward Cullen. Life is so unfair sometimes.

So I put on my music this morning and decided that since this story was getting such great reviews and story alerts and such, I wanted to write another chapter for you guys today. I really appreciate all the feedback I got, thanks guys you make my day! Well…let's see where this chapter goes.

I never loved no body fully

Always one foot on the ground

And i protected my heart truly

I got lost, in the sound

Suppose I kept on singing love songs, just to break my own fall

---Regina Spektor "Fidelity"

"Hey, come in." I opened the door to see Alice standing there with Rosalie, and a couple of bags in her hand.

"Hi Bella. Hope you don't mind me coming over." Rosalie followed Alice into my apartment.

"No, it's fine. I'm sure Alice has told you why I asked her to come over." I motioned them into my bedroom.

"Mostly. Don't worry though, you're in good hands. When we're done here, he'll be begging you to take him."

"I hope so. But seriously, who's going to pick a plain Jane over Miss America?" I exaggerated as I sat down on my bed.

"You're not plain Jane. You're pretty, trust me on this one. It's not just about the clothes you're going to wear. I can't believe I just said that. It's true though, we need to get a plan of action." Alice said, joining me and Rosalie on my bed.

"Where's he right now?" Rose asked.

"Out to dinner with that slut." I replied, fuming. "After he had lunch with her, too. I made him dinner, because I thought he'd appreciate it, but obviously he'd rather go out with her. Maybe he just thinks he can get into her pants. I'm sure she's easy, freaking whore."

"Chill out. You know Edward isn't like that. If Tanya makes you this jealous, maybe you should try and make him jealous too." Alice said as Rosalie nodded her head.

"Good idea, who's going to be the lucky guy?" Rosalie asked me.

"I don't know. Well, there is the kid, Jacob, who walked me to a couple of my classes today. He seemed nice enough."

"Go for it! Make up a story to get him back to your apartment at a time when Edward will be there. See if he gets jealous; I'm sure he will." Alice encouraged me.

"Sounds like a plan!" We exchanged high-fives before she dove into one of the huge bags she brought.

"I've brought you outfits; one for everyday this week. Put them to good use, please." She went over to my dresser and added enough clothes in it to fill up three drawers.

"We better get going, but call us or drop a text to tell us how the plan is going." Rosalie said, walking out of my bedroom. Alice and I followed her.

"Bye girls, thank you so much." I said, feeling relieved as I hugged them both goodbye.

I went back into my room and blasted my music so that I could drown out everything but my thoughts.

I needed to get Tanya away from Edward, or Edward away from Tanya. He couldn't seriously like her. I've been here for him for so many years, how could he not like me back? I mean, the man popped a boner when he saw me before!

I sat up quickly in my bed. Alice said she left me some clothes….I'm sure that not all of them were exactly PG rated. I went over to my top drawer to find a couple sets of lingerie from Victoria's Secret. I quietly thanked her, even though she wasn't there, and put the midnight blue bra on, the lace boy shorts, and the lace see through tank top that goes over it. I heard the front door opening as I dabbed make-up on.

"Bella?" I heard Edward call me; he seemed to be alone. That was always a good sign.

I walked down the hall to find Edward standing there with his mouth wide open.

"Hey Edward." I said in the sexiest voice I could find. He swallowed hard as I moved closer to him. "I missed you." I put my arms around his neck and hugged him. I felt something hard poke against my stomach.

"It looks like you missed me too." I smiled and chuckled a little. His cheeks got redder, and his mouth was still wide open. I kissed his cheek and turned, walking back to my bedroom. My work here was done.

I woke up the next morning in the same outfit I wore last night; it showed such good results I didn't want to change. I walked into the kitchen and started pouring myself cereal. I heard Edward walk in, but he didn't say anything. I decided to show him just how nice my new underwear is. I bent down to get the milk, staying in that position a little longer than I needed to. I heard him gulp loudly.

"Oh, good morning Edward, I didn't see you there. Would you like a bowl of cereal for breakfast?" I asked him, smiling. He just nodded his head and sat down.

"How was your date with Tanya?" I put his bowl in front of him, and sat down next to him.

"It was good. I had fun." He said, smiling with that look on his face that said he was remembering something about last night.

"Is she good in the sack?" I asked, angered.

"Bella, we didn't go that far. I'm not going to do her on the first date." He said, shocked.

"Sorry. Are you guys going out again?"

"I'm taking her out to lunch, and then I promise I'll bring dinner home for us."

"You are?" I asked, skeptically.

"I told you I'd make it up to you. I might even throw in cheesecake." He winked at me, and I started laughing.

We talked a little as we finished up our breakfasts. Edward got dressed and came back into the living room, told me bye, kissed my head, and left. I took a shower, and got dressed in one of the outfits Alice left for me; it was a black sweater dress with leggings, flats, and a silver heart necklace. I pulled my hair up in a ponytail and added mascara and eyeliner to my face. I walked out of my apartment and went to go find Jacob. I walked around aimlessly; I was at building eight at this point.

"Lost again, Bella?" I heard a voice laugh from behind me.

"Hi Jacob! No, I'm not lost; I was actually looking for you." I told him, noticing how his face had lit up in a huge smile.

"What did you need?" He asked, walking closer to me.

"I wanted to know if you could come over to my apartment later; I have this piece of music that I have to play in my piano class and I wasn't sure if it sounded right or not." I said, making it up on the spot.

"I'd love to. What time do you want me to come over?"

"Does five-thirty work for you?"

"That'd be great." He replied. I gave him my address, and then went back to my apartment.

The first thing I did when I got home was call Alice; I wasn't really sure what I was supposed to do when Jacob came over.

"Hey, what's going on?" She asked when she answered the phone.

"I invited Jake over to listen to something I have to play for class; he's coming over at five-thirty."

"Great! I'm guessing Edward's going to be there?"

"Yeah. He told me he was going to bring dinner home for us after he goes out to lunch with Tanya." I gagged as I said her name. "I figured he could use a little taste of his own medicine."

"Good! You catch on very quickly. Make sure you kiss Jake goodbye, and not just a sweet little peck. You want Edward to wish he was Jacob by the end of this night. I'm sure it'll be fine."

"Alright. Well, thank you again for your outfits; they are very helpful. I'm going to go write and then I'll make dinner for me and Jacob. Goodbye!"

I hung up the phone and started to write my short story. I got four pages in before I lost my inspiration to write. That was when I decided to start dinner; it was already quarter after four. I put chicken strips and fries in the oven to cook; I figured we could have a very casual dinner. There was a knock on my door, and I opened it to reveal Jacob standing there in his dark jeans and a navy blue t-shirt.

"Hey Jake." I said, inviting him in.

"You look beautiful." He told me, his white teeth were bright, almost blinding.

"I made chicken strips and fries; I hope you didn't already eat." I placed a plate of fries and a plate of chicken strips on the table. I handed him an empty plate before we sat down.

"Thank you, this smells good. I love chicken." He told me as he began loading up his plate.

"You're welcome. Thanks for coming over, I know it was last minute and all."

"No problem. I really want to know though, did you ask me over just to listen to you play piano?" I wasn't sure how to respond, and he must have seen something in my facial expression because he added, "It's not that I think this is a date or anything, but really, who asks a total stranger to come over and listen to them play piano?"

I laughed, embarrassed. "Well, my best friend, Edward, lives in this apartment with me. There's this girl, Tanya, that I think he likes, but I like him a lot so I want to make him feel as jealous as he makes me."

"Ah, I see. That's Tanya Denali you're talking about, right?"

"I'm not sure. She's blonde, obnoxious, and was hanging all over Edward."

"Yeah, that's Tanya Denali. She's bad news that girl is. My friend, Seth, tried to date her once but all she wanted him for was sex. It got really bad whenever he caught her behind the art building with Paul, my other friend. If you need me to get Edward away from her, I'm sure I can help." He smiled, taking a couple of fries and eating them.

"I'd appreciate that so much. We're going to have to make him really jealous, so I hope you don't mind if things get a little….not so PG." I blushed as I told him this.

"If that means I get to make out with a pretty girl, I'm all for it." He said, winking at me. I laughed as I tried to hide the rising color in my cheeks. I was going to be a tomato by the end of the night.

The door opened up, and Edward walked through, holding three boxes of food.

"I'm home!" He said, oblivious to me and Jacob sitting at the table. He put the food on the counter before saying, "You're going to love me for what I brought home."

"Edward, I'm in here. Sorry, but me and Jacob already ate dinner." I told him.

"Who's Jacob?" He asked as he walked into the room. He glared at Jake before looking at me.

"He's been helping me around campus. I invited him over for dinner; I didn't think you would mind."

"Thanks for sharing your hot roommate with me." He said, winking at me before looking at Edward. He grunted and then went to his room.

"What would you like to do now?" I asked him as I cleared the table.

"You never did give me the tour, but we can just skip that and go to the only place I really want to see; your room." Jacob said, following me down the hall.

I laughed and showed him into my room. We ended up sitting on my bed and talking for an hour. We talked about his family, his school, and his friends. I really got o know him better. He's such a nice guy. He asked me what my biggest dream is, and of course I didn't want to tell him; it's a personal thing for me.

"Just tell me, you know I won't laugh."

"No."

"I'll make you tell me." He grinned wickedly at me, and then began to tickle me; a lot harsher than Edward does.

"Ah! Oh…god…JACOB!" I was screaming and panting because I just couldn't get him to stop.

"What the fuck are you guys doing in here?" Edward came barging through the door to find Jake on top of me, tickling me fiercely.

"Having sex, you can leave your money at the door; this isn't a free show you know!" Jacob said, as we both started busting up laughing.

Edwards face turned blank, and he left the room, slamming the door.

"Well, he seems happy with me. I think it's working." He said, kissing my cheek. "I better go though; I have homework I need to get done." He got off of me and I walked him to the door.

"Thank you for coming over." I said, unsure if I should kiss him or not.

"Anytime, beautiful." He kissed my cheek and then walked out.

I didn't want Edward to be completely mad at me; I just wanted a little revenge, so I decided to go apologize to him. I figured he at least got a little wake up call from Jacob coming over. When I walked into his room, I found him at his keyboard, playing the most breathtaking arrangement of notes I've ever heard.

"That sounds lovely." I told him, as I sat down on the bench next to him.

"Thank you, its something that just sort of came to me when I sat down." He looked at me, his smile not fully reaching his eyes.

"I'm sorry about dinner tonight. Thanks for remembering to pick something up, though." I said. He put his arm around me.

"Of course I remembered, you're not an easy person to forget." He kissed my head before standing up.

"I'm going to bed, goodnight." I stood up too and gave him a hug.

"Sweet dreams, Bella." He replied, kissing my forehead. I walked out of the room as he went over to his guitar to start practicing. Before bed, he used to play the guitar for me; acoustic of course. He really is musically talented.

I changed into my pajamas, and hopped into bed. After listening to a little bit of music I was out like a light.

AN: please review; tell me what you thought of this chapter. I'm thinking about doing the next one in Edward's point of view cause I've got really good ideas for that.

Thanks,

Jess
