A/N: Chapter 4! So yeah, I'm trying to slow it down, so, sorry if it gets sorta boring at times. :)
Chapter 4
"I got souvenirs!" Alice yelled, pulling me into the house, "I knew Edward would be able to get you back." She whispered.
"Shut up." I blushed.
"Anyways!" She dragged me to the living room, all clean and done and pushed me to the floor beside Rosalie and Jasper. "Souvenirs!"
She opened a large box which showed mood necklaces.
I gasped and so did Rosalie, Jasper's eyes widened.
"Hey cool," Edward looked at me, raising his eyebrows. "I wonder which ones yours?"
I glared at him and looked away.
From the corner of my eye, he glared too. "Right, the coldest one." He said.
I balled my fist.
"Here you go Bella." Alice smiled, passing me a necklace.
I took it. "Thank you so much Alice!" I hugged her.
"Let me," Edward said, taking the necklace and going behind me. I felt self-conscious now. I could feel his arm brushing my back and his arm go around my shoulders. I could feel how he gently rested his arm on my shoulders and strapped the necklace together. I could feel him leaning in and whisper in my ear, "There you go."
I didn't know I was blushing bad until I felt it.
"Bella, your necklace turned… light red. Are you mad?" Alice asked teasingly.
I could only shake my head.
"Excuse me." I squeaked and got up from the floor, running anywhere I could go.
"We'll call you when dinner is ready!" Alice yelled as I entered a random room.
I looked around and my eyes widened. Edward's room.
Downstairs with Edward
"You did that on purpose!" Alice laughed and spanked my arm.
"Ouch! But, hey, I just wanted to see what she would do." I shrugged.
"Because Edward likey." Emmett said in a high-pitched voice.
"Edward!" Tanya called.
"Shit! Hide me!" I yelled.
"Dude, it's your fault you listened to her in London." Emmett shrugged.
"What else was I supposed to do?" I growled.
"I don't know, uh, NOT listen to her?" Alice said in a "duh" voice.
"Eddiepuss!" Tanya cried and ran over and hugged me, "I missed you! Where were you?"
"Hiding." I muttered.
"What was that eddie weddy?" she asked.
"Oh nothing." I said.
Alice, Emmett, Jasper and Rosalie snickered.
"So when is dinner served?" Tanya asked.
"In ten minutes," Alice muttered and stood up, "I'll call for pizza."
"Ew! Those gross greasy things?" Tanya shuddered and walked out of the room.
"Jeez! I know I can be girly at times, but I don't hate pizza." Rosalie muttered.
"Neither do I." Alice agreed.
Ding Dong!
"Fast service!" Jasper said, surprised.
"Nah," Alice smirked, "its Jacob."
I growled.
Alice opened the door for Jacob and he greeted her. "Hey Alice! What's up?"
"Nothing much, Jake. Bella's upstairs, wanna go fetch her?"
"I'd like to, but, I can't. I gotta tell her something important though." Jacob said, almost in a hurry.
"I'll go call her down." I said.
"No, that's ok, I can get her." Jacob grinned and started walking up the stairs.
"I'll join you!" I yelled and walked up with him.
Emmett laughed and Jasper snickered.
"To save trouble…" Alice muttered, with a hint of fright, running up the stairs, "I'll do it." She said, and slammed the door to my room.
My room?
"Alice, where do you think your going?!" I yelled.
With Bella
I smiled at the many
CD's he had. He just moved and already it's fixed. I walked over
to the books he had on his corner bookshelf and smiled at how
organized it was.
This was the Edward I missed. The Edward I knew
and loved.
I picked a random book from the shelf and walked over to his bed and sat down, opening the book. He was still a classic, a wonderful person who would read Shakespeare and understand every single word anyway.
I missed my Edward.
Suddenly, the door opened and slammed closed and I jumped up.
Alice was there, rushing over to me.
"You have GOT to get out of here now! If Edward sees you, I don't know what he'll do." She said.
I was confused.
"Follow me, Bella." Alice said, seeing my confusion.
She brought me to his walk-in closet and closed the door.
"What exactly are we doing here?" I asked, irritated with the darkness but enjoyed the smell.
"Here Bella!" I heard Alice's muffled voice come behind me and I followed it. I felt her hold my hand and pull me into a hidden door behind large coats. She put me in the room and closed the door. We were in…her room.
"Alice? Where are we?" I asked, "Or rather, why are we in your room?"
"That's how I play tricks on him," Alice grinned, "I put that there with Carlisle years ago!" she laughed.
I grinned.
Flashback
"It's annoying! I don't know how it keeps happening!" Edward yelled.
"What exactly keeps happening?" I asked.
"My alarm clock wakes me up at 5AM everyday!"
"Huh, is that why you wake ME up?" I asked angrily.
"Uhh…" He grinned innocently as I cracked my knuckles.
"You set his alarm clock?" I laughed.
"Well, yeah," She smiled. "How'd you know?"
"His complaints, of course," I laughed. "Why don't you just pass the door?" I asked.
"Because he locks it, duh." She laughed.
He locks it, huh? I raised my eyebrow.
I went out of Alice's room and smiled at a confused Jacob who was standing on the stairs, looking at Edward's door. Edward must have gone in.
"Hi Jake!" I smiled and hugged him.
"Hey, Bella!" he smiled, "Listen, can you do me a huge favor?" he asked.
"It depends on what it is." I said, raising my eyebrow.
"Can we skip motorcycling today? I don't think I can go cause…Leah—"
"Ah," I laughed, "No worries Jake! Have fun on your date."
"Thanks Bella." Jake said, flushed and walked down.
"Alice! Why'd you go in my room?" Edward yelled when Alice went out of her room. "And how'd you get THERE?"
"I just run really fast Edward." Alice smiled and walked away.
"Bella, what did Jacob want?" Edward asked.
"Why do you want to know?" I asked, pretending to be irritated.
"Because…because…I don't know!" Edward yelled and sighed, then walked into his room. Poor guy.
"Edward?" I said, knocking on his door. "Are you alright?"
I opened it and closed it and watched him on the bed, not moving.
I walked over and shook him.
Bad move.
He grabbed my hands and flipped me over and onto the bed, right under him, and he started to tickle me.
"Ed-Ed-Edward!" I laughed, "Stop! Asshole! Get off of me!" I yelled, laughing and gasping.
He stopped, laughing too, his hair kinda messy. I sat up and put a strand of his hair back in its place.
Our faces were close and our noses were almost touching. Edward smiled a crooked grin and I blushed.
"Where were you?" I sighed.
"What do you mean?" he asked, leaning in, confused.
"I mean, your not…my Edward." I muttered, looking down.
He frowned at that and tilted my chin up with his finger.
"Hey," he grinned, "I'm right here Bella!"
I pursed my lips and he looked at them.
"Didn't I tell you that I'd always be here?" he said, putting his hand over my heart.
"I could never feel you." I sighed.
"You don't have to."
I sighed and leaned back, landing and flopping on his bed. He smiled at me got off of me and off the bed. He went to his drawer and opened it, taking out a photo album and I snatched it from his hands.
"Bella, give it back!" he yelled.
"Make me," I stuck my tongue out, about to open it.
"Bella…" He warned.
"You can't do anything about it Edward! Nothing will make me hand it back to you."
"Oh really?" he said, getting closer.
"Ed-Edward?" I asked as he got on the bed. My eyes widened.
I jumped off the bed, leaving the photo album on it and ran out the room. I heard his loud laugh from inside and growled.
In school the next day
Everyone greeted Edward again when he got out of his car. His fangirls went all crazy and started shoving him flowers and cards and notes and gifts out of no where. No, I wasn't jealous. Or was I?
As I walked passed the Gym at Recess, holding my bottle of water, I saw him playing basketball with his friends.
"Alice, d'you wanna play with them?" I asked.
"Sure!" she grinned, following behind me.
"Woah! Chicks coming in!" one of them yelled, causing the game to stop.
"Hey Bella." Edward smirked.
I stole the ball from him and spun it on my finger, "Don't 'hey Bella' me, let's play a game." I smirked back.
He shrugged, still smirking and said, "I'll hand over Jasper to you, deal?"
"Whatever." I said, walking over behind him. I checked the ball to him and once he checked it back to me and I dribbled and dodged his arm, passing the ball to Jasper. I ran to the basket, almost tripping and as Jasper passed me the ball, I jumped for a lay-up. Edward was trying to block me and as my lay-up went in, I fell on top of him, causing him to fall on the floor. He shook his head and I touched mine, "Ow." I muttered.
"You alright?" he asked.
"I'm fine." I said, getting up.
"You should seriously be careful. I told you not to play with us guys, were just so much better." Edward laughed and my mouth went open.
I grabbed my bottle of water from Alice and slid the cup open, pouring it on his head.
"There," I smiled, "That should cool you off."
His mouth was open and he was looking at me.
"Ooooo…" One of his friends laughed, "Edward got served!"
Edward rolled his eyes and I walked away, laughing along with Alice.
During Spanish, he sat beside me and I moved the farthest place I could from him. I was getting drowsy that I almost fell asleep, but he shook me, and I thanked him for that.
"I didn't mean to, by the way," Edward whispered to me. "It's just…that's how guys are right?" he asked.
"I know you didn't mean to," I sighed, whispering back, "But what do you mean that's how they act?"
"I mean," he bit his lip, "When they try to impress and tease a girl?"
I raised an eyebrow. "Really?" I said out loud.
"Espanol, porfavor!" The teacher yelled at us and glared.
"Sorry!" I bit my lip.
She raised her eyebrow.
"I mean…uh, I, uh…" I stuttered.
"Perdon." Edward smiled.
"Si…" I grinned.
She glared once more, then turned around and started teaching again.
I mouthed a Thank You to Edward and he just shrugged his shoulders.
I tried to recall the conversation. What did he mean by 'try to impress a girl'? Was he trying to impress me? Why in the world would he try to impress me?
At the end of class, he seemed pretty much in a hurry, and all he said to me before he left was "See you at Drama."
Shit. Drama.
A/N: Feel the DRAMA YET!?
Who would play Cinderella? And who would play Prince Charming?
I don't know if it should be Another Cinderella Story or A Cinderella Story, but I think I'll stick with A Cinderella Story.
I'm trying to slow things down so it might get a bit boring at times, but yeah. :)
Sorry for the late post. Homework and blah. T_T
