Ok! Time for chapter seven! I hope you all like it!
I woke up the next morning still feeling the slightest bit fatigue from last night's release.
After showering, I noticed that my black eye was healing. It almost looks like I'm wearing lots of eye shadow. But of course I don't so I covered it up anyway.
Thoughts of Edward came back to me and the more I tried to push him out the more he came into my head.
But how could I not have him in my head? Maybe it was because I wanted his head in my…
OK, that's enough Swan!
I sighed audibly and tried to get out of the house without any thoughts of You-Know-Who.
Soon, I was in my car and driving to school. As I parked in my usual space I saw the bronzed-haired god leaning against his car watching my every move.
The butterflies made themselves into my stomach as I stared at him through the rearview mirror.
I got out of the car with shaky legs and grabbed my bag.
Edward sent me his signature grin and I swear I just wanted to jump his bones right then.
RIIIIIIIIING!
Oh fuck you, stupid bell.
I made my way inside and sat next to Angela as usual.
"Oh my god, did you see Jacob's hair today? And his clothes! He's so friggin' hot!"
We were sent into a fit of giggles. "Yeah, I saw. His biceps are huge!"
"I know!"
I stared at her with a smug grin. "Should I tell Eric about this?"
She rolled her eyes. "Silly Bella. Just because you're on a diet, doesn't mean you can't look at the menu."
I laughed again.
Our morning periods weren't any different than usual. Then lunch.
Angele walked ahead with Eric and Alice somehow found her way next to me.
"Hey, Bella!" she chirped.
"Hey, Ali." I sighed as I saw everyone staring at me in the halls.
"What's the matter?"
I lowered my voice so no one could hear but her. "It's just…I dunno. I guess I always thought that pretending to lose my virginity would be a little more special. But apparently it's not."
"Who cares what everyone else thinks? You're doing this for a good reason and whoever has a problem that can go fuck a tree."
We laughed all the way to the cafeteria.
When I saw Jake, I winked at him discreetly. He smiled back.
We sat down at the table and I was met with bright green eyes.
Edward was smiling and I couldn't help but smile back.
I saw fire light in his eyes and every part of me burned for his touch.
I forced myself to look away and heard the girls laughing softly a light blush covered my cheeks.

At the end sixth period, Jacob and I met at the end of the hall and in front of the janitor's closet as we planned.
"Hey," I greeted with a burst of excitement. This part must've been the best part of the whole thing.
Jake showed me a big toothy grin and said, "This is gonna be so much fun!"
"I know!"
When people started filing out of classes, I pushed Jake seductively into the closet and this part was easy because all we had to do was moan for about two minutes and then everyone was supposed to be in class.
So we just sat there and when we heard someone walk outside in the hallway to go the bathroom or get a drink, we'd start up again.
When the next bell rang, I made Jake put his shirt on inside out and backwards. He didn't really understand but I told him it was for the best. Then I messed up his hair and sent him out as I flicked a few strands of my hair out of place so it mimicked his.
After school, Alice praised me for my work by text.
Whatever u did wrkd every1 thinks u did it -Alice
Couldn't hav done it witout u ;) -B
I placed all my things in the car and drove home.
I was heading to my room when Charlie called me into the living room.
"Yeah?"
He glared at me. "I just got a call from your teacher."
Panic soared through me and it was all I could do to keep a skeptical expression on my face. "What about?"
"She said you skipped class. What happened? That isn't like you."
I sighed in relief. I thought it was something about Jake and I…doing stuff.
"No, um I wasn't feeling well so I went to the nurse's office and I guess I forgot to tell my teacher," I lied.
He nodded. "Ok, good. Are you feeling any better?"
I nodded. Then I was up in my room and started my homework.
Before I went to sleep, Edward and I had our usual texting session.
So u and Jake huh?- E
Yea I guess- B
U make it sound like it's a bad thing…everything alright?
Yea everythings fine

He knew me too well.

I sighed.

Thursday was pretty much the same. The jocks and the whores glared and that left the rest of the students just to stare at me blankly.
It was very uncomfortable but I was learning to deal.
On Friday, however, things went a little crazy.
At lunch, I was getting suspicious stares from everyone even though they tried to hide it.
Even Edward. But when I looked up at him he would smile at me and I tried to smile back but I think it turned out to be a grimace.
Then in biology, I still got the occasional glance from Edward. But it didn't feel right. It was like the ones I've been getting at lunch.
Eventually the class was told to line up in the aisle. I wasn't sure was what was about to happen but I didn't question it.
"Ok, class," the teacher started, "we're going to be doing a blood type test."
My breath hitched in my throat.
"Let me demonstrate on Mike."
I swallowed hard and braced myself.
Just take deep breaths. In and out, in and out…
But of course that did no help.
The minute I saw blood gush out of his fingertip the room started spinning. I think I may have swayed against Edward but I couldn't concentrate on anything for the life of me.
And then everything went black.
/-/-/-/
I woke up in the nurse's office.
I sighed audibly as I sat up. I ran a hand through my hair and looked over to find Edward.
"Hey," I said awkwardly.
He smiled. "Hey, yourself." He stood up and sat on the bed with me.
I moved over so he could fit. I lay my had on his shoulder as he wrapped his arm around me.
I was rewarded with his husky smell and a hint of tobacco.
"What happened?" he asked lightly.
I sighed again. "It's just this thing with blood. Whenever I see it I freak out. Well, more like pass out."
He chuckled. "Well I'm glad you're ok. You scared me."
"I'm sorry."
He squeezed my shoulder slightly in forgiveness.
"What time is it?"
He pulled out his phone and said, "It's almost the end of school."
My eyes widened. "I've been out for a whole hour?"
"Forty-five minutes."
I sighed. "Well that's a record-breaker."
He laughed once again. "C'mon, I'll walk you out."
Right on cue the last bell rang and I could hear students walking out of classes.
Edward walked me to my car and told me he'd text me later tonight.
I smiled at him. Texting him was nothing like talking to him in person but I'd take all I could get.
After I finished my homework, I was about to start dinner until Alice called.
"Hey, Ali," I answered.
"Uh, can I tell you something without you being mad at me?"
I immediately tensed. "What is it?" I asked warily.
"Um, I think I may have said something to Rose that involves your secret and now she keeps bugging me about it and I don't wanna tell them without you."
I sighed. I guess it had to happen one way or another. "Ok, I'll be right down."
I left money on the table in case Charlie came home before I did.
I hopped into the car and raced over to the Cullen Estate.
When I arrived, I lifted my hand to knock but Alice had already opened the door and dragged me in.
We stepped into the family room with everyone wearing waiting faces.
"Uh, hi?" I meant it to be a greeting but it came out more like a question.
"You wanna tell us what the big secret is?" Rose asked.
I swallowed hard. Rosalie was a very intimidating person as it is so to see an annoyed Rosalie was just scary.
"Um…"
Edward smiled encouraging smile at me which helped slightly but I was still nervous.
"Just ignore Rosalie, everyone else does," Jasper said with a slight southern drawl.
Suddenly I was hit with a rush of…calm.
"You know how everyone thinks that I've been fucking Seth and Jacob?" I began.
Everyone nodded.
"It's not true. We faked it. The jocks were bullying the two of them because they were gay. So we came up with a plan to pretend to have sex so they would stop. And that's pretty much all there is."
They were all silent for a moment.
Emmett was the first to break it with his booming laughter. And soon everyone else was laughing too.
It was contagious and I couldn't help but laugh as well.
"See I told you they would be ok with it," Alice said.
I smiled at her. Never bet against Alice.
"That's so nice yet so funny!" Rose said through her giggles.
"I said the same thing!" Alice replied.
"So what, now your just open for business?" Emmett asked.
I shrugged. "I only meant for it to only be for Seth but then Jake asked me for his help and I told him I would. I wouldn't really say I was open for business."
"I dunno," Jazz cut in, "if you haven't noticed, there are lots of um…gentlemen attending our school."
"Really?"
They all nodded.
I groaned internally. Hopefully that wouldn't happen.
I looked at the time and figured I should get home.
"Oh, c'mon Bells!" Emmett whined. "Stay a little longer." He pouted.
I sighed. I wasn't sure if Alice's was better or his. But either way I gave.
"Sure why not." If Charlie wanted to know where I was he could just call.
Emmett, Jazz and I played Halo and whipped both of their pretty asses while the rest cheered me on.
"Oh it's Game On!" Emmett yelled.
Jazz decided to stay out for a few rounds since Emmett and I were concentrated on each other.
He beat me a few times but my wins still outnumbered his.
Then when we got bored, Edward and I played Guitar Hero.
We both played on expert but he was way better than me. He got every song perfect while I would miss part of the solo or maybe the chorus.
But either way we had fun.
"A little while longer" turned into the rest of the night as we went back to the family room to watch a movie.
First we watched a horror movie and I hid my face at all the gory parts and the scary parts but he never said anything so I guessed he was alright with it.
When that was over, Jasper pulled out a movie everyone could enjoy.
Rush Hour 3.
We all laughed at Chris Tucker dancing and singing to Prince. But I couldn't help but sing along with him.
"Do me baby, like you've never done before." Then I stood up and tried to hit the high note but of course my voice cracked and we all laughed.
I sat down next to Edward, still laughing at my inability of singing and continued watching the movie.
I must've fallen asleep because when I woke up I was in Edward's arms.
"Wha times it?" I mumbled.
He chuckled slightly and lay me down on the bed. "Sleep, my Bella."
I was sure I'd been dreaming by then. There was no way Edward Cullen would call me his Bella. No matter how many times I wished he would.
Ok, that's the end of that chapter. I hoped you all enjoyed it! Review if you wanna see Bella and Edward singing Prince!
