Edward's POV:
I decided it was best to go talk to Alice about what she heard about Bella and my next course of action. I walked into the spirit shop, where Alice worked, just to see her shopping on Prada online on the store's computer. She can be so ridiculous sometimes.
"Earth to Alice!" I practically shouted, while waving my hands in front of her face.
"What do you want, Edward?" she seethed. She was obviously still a wee bit upset about our little discussion earlier.
"I came to apologize," I said in my sweetest voice.
"Sure, you did, what do you need? Because I know for a fact that you only apologize when you absolutely need something!" she has a tendency to always see through my little acts. Maybe it's a twin thing?
"Okay, Alice, you caught me! I need you to tell me what you know about Isabella Swan," I admitted.
"Oh! Alright, um, she's really nice, funny, and smart, she doesn't realize how pretty she really is, um…Wait! Why do you want to know ANYTHING about Bella?"
"Well, you see…I'm kinda in love with her?" Did I just say love? I guess I am. I sure haven't felt this way ever before.
"WHAT? EDWARD CULLEN IN LOVE? ALERT THE MEDIA!" Alice shouted.
"Alice, please, quiet down!" I pleaded.
She first laughed and then continued, "Let me guess, she won't date you?" she asked.
"Not exactly, I'm pretty confident I almost have her, it's just I don't want to screw this one up by being a total jerk." I admitted.
"Oh, you don't want to be a total jerk like you are with the rest of the school's female population?" I guess I deserved that.
"You know, I could go to someone like Emmett (my brother, who happens to be a senior at Dartmouth) for advice, but I just thought since you're my sister, my twin sister at that, that you'd help me out a little bit. I suppose not," I pouted. Jeez, I've been using the pout a lot recently!
"Oh please, Edward, EMMETT? He's practically the worst choice in the world! You must REALLY be desperate to even consider him, but I'll help you alright? She lives on my floor, three rooms down. I'm pretty sure she has some sort of male trust issue though. I know for a fact she's turned down dates from Mike, Eric, and Tyler." Great, Mike Newton, he is the second string quarterback, complete tool.
"What led to the trust issues?" I questioned.
"I think it was some boy from back home? I only know this from Angela, her dorm mate."
"Hmm, well what should I do next? I've walked her to class and literally swept her off her feet," I said remembering the memory from earlier today with a smile.
"I think you need to show her that you're not as big of a scum bag as your reputation says!" Thanks, Alice.
"How do you suppose I do that?" I questioned.
"She does work the night shift at the library. Maybe, you could happen to be in the library tonight instead of partying with gross girls like Jessica and Lauren?" Well, that's an idea and then I can dazzle her with my intellect!
"Thanks, Alice! I got to go now! I'll call you later though," I kissed her on the cheek and then left.
Tonight should be quite interesting!
Bella's POV:
Man, I can't believe Edward Cullen actually swept me off my feet. How embarrassing! Maybe he's not as bad as his reputation says? What are you thinking, Bella? This guy obviously can't be trusted! I mean he is pretty cute, way cuter than Jake. That bronze hair and those green eyes! Mmm, maybe I'll give him a chance? His twin sister, Alice, lives a few rooms down from me. She seems nice, a little hyper, but nice.
He just has this strange ability to dazzle me whenever we look into each other's eyes. It's like an electrical current and I have to admit it didn't feel too bad being caught in his arms. Oh! And he must be smart if he's Pre-Med! I feel so bad for doubting his intellect earlier though.
Oh well, it's off to work at the campus library. I'm sure Edward is at some huge party off-campus, since he is Mr. Popular.
Little does Bella know that Mr. Popular is going to be waiting for her at the library :)
