Another wonderful chapter of H.S.N.E.!
Not much to say, so I guess I could start…
Chapter 7
Bella's POV
I looked back at the music room, where I heard people talking. Hmm, usually no one is in there. I thought to myself. Curious as ever, I walked into the room. To my surprise, Edward, Jasper, Emmett, and two other boys- Kyle; a tall, lean boy with blond spiky hair and hazel eyes, and Jason; a tall boy with bright red hair and brown eyes- were counting down. Once Edward reached four, they began playing.
Then, Edward began singing.
Say, hey!
Hear the sound of the falling rain
Coming down like an Armageddon flame
The shame, the ones who died without a name
Hear the dogs howling out of key
To a hymn called "Faith and Misery"
And bleed, the company lost the war today
I beg to dream and differ from the hollow lies
This is the dawning of the rest of our lives
On Holiday
Oh, they were playing "Holiday" by Green Day. They were good at singing and playing the song.
Hear the drum pounding out of time
Another protester has crossed the line
To find the money's on the other side
Can I get another Amen?
There's a flag wrapped around a score of men
A gag, a plastic bag on a monument
I beg to dream and differ from the hollow lies
This is the dawning of the rest of our lives
On holiday
Edward spotted me, and winked at me, smiling.
The representative from California has the floor
Zieg Heil to the president gasman
Bombs away is your punishment
Pulverize the Eiffel towers
Who criticize your government
Bang, bang goes the broken glass
Kill all the fags that don't agree
Trials by fire, setting fire
Is not a way that's meant for me
Just cause, just cause, because we're outlaws, yeah
I beg to dream and differ from the hollow lies
This is the dawning of the rest of our lives
I beg to dream and differ from the hollow lies
This is the dawning of the rest of our lives
This is our lives on holiday
(Yeah, it would be better if you would listen to the song while reading this chapter!)
After they ended the song, I was clapping, while cheering for them. They laughed, as they bowed. "Thank you, Spartans!" Jason, who was on the drums, shouted, while Kyle, who was on base, smacked him on the head. Jason winced in pain, while complaining.
"So, Bells, what brings you here?" Emmett asked me, and I shrugged. "You guys were awesome!" I told them excitedly, as Edward blushed. "You were amazing at singing, Edward!" I squealed, blushing and giggling. He smiled at me, his cheeks turning a light pink. He looked so adorable! And there I go again with the cuteness factor! I scolded myself in my head.
"Thanks, Bells." Edward mumbled, while Jasper punched his shoulder. "Aw, look, Em! He's blushing." Jasper sneered at his friend, while Edward looked down, embarrassed. "Aw, my little bro." Emmett said in a baby voice, while he walked over to Edward and ruffled his hair. Edward complained, as he walked over to me. I giggled.
"Man, the captain of the baseball team, trying out for the show." Jason said, while snickering. "Show?" I asked, confused. "Yeah, the annual Talent Show." Edward told me, as he led me over to a bulletin board. There was a large red flyer:
*Spartans Annual Talent Show!!*

(Only actual talents are allowed!)

*Auditions will begin in a few weeks!*
"So, you guys are signing up for it?" I asked them, and they all nodded. "Well, I know you guys will win." I encouraged them. Edward rolled his eyes at me, while the others agreed with me.
"Of course we will win! We're awesome!" Jason told me boastfully, as he flipped his drumsticks in the air. He tried to catch them, but they fell on the drums loudly, as Jason grimaced. "Might want to practice that." Edward mumbled to me, as I giggled.
"Shut up, Eddie!" Jason yelled at him, while everyone in the room laughed. "Don't call me Eddie!" Edward snarled at him, while Jason held his hands up in surrender. "Sorry, dude." Jason mumbled his apology. Edward rolled his eyes again.
We all left the music room together, and was about to leave the school building, until we saw Lissa- a girl with brown hair, pale skin, and grey eyes behind her small, black square glasses- post something up. We walked over to it as she left. It was the Romeo and Juliet auditions results.

(I don't remember the rest of the characters)
I stood there, my mouth agape. "I'm Juliet." I whispered. Edward smiled as he hugged me. Silently, in my head, I was screaming at the top of my lungs, jumping for joy. I squealed out loud, and hugged Edward back. "I didn't know you guys audition." I stated towards Jasper and Emmett. "We audition for the fun of it." Jasper told me as Edward was still hugging me.
"Man, I can't wait to see what Lauren will do when she sees this!" Edward exclaimed as he set me down. Speak of the devil; I heard big clunks, signaling someone was heading our way. "Speak of the she-devil, and she shall appear." Edward whispered to me, as he led me as far as possible away from the audition results. Lauren saw the flyer, and smirked smugly. "Oh, yes, the audition flyer! I'm so Juliet!" Lauren squealed as she stepped forward. She read the flyer over, then again, then again, and then finally…
"NO F-IN' WAY!" Lauren screamed so loud, that even the glass windows shook. "I'M LADY MONTAGUE?!" She shrieked again. Everyone that was gathered in the halls was laughing at her, including me and Edward. She heard my laugh, and whirled around, then she shrieked in rage. "YOU BITCH! YOU BLACKMAILED THE DAMN TEACHER!" she shrieked at me.
"Hey, don't blame me that you can't act." I told her through my laughter. Edward laughed even harder, as he leaned on my side. "SHUT THE HELL UP, BITCH!" Lauren shrieked at me again. Then, she clunked out of the halls, with her bimbo followers following her. As everyone's laughter died down, Edward and I slipped out of the building, and hurried over to the girl's dorms. As we were walking to my dorm, we heard from Lauren's dorm that she was shrieking, and throwing things around in her room. Edward and I looked at each other in amusement, then hurried to my dorm.
He walked over to my bed, and sat on my bed. I grabbed some sodas from our fridge, and handed him one. "A toast," Edward began. I looked up at him, smiling. "To you getting the part of Juliet and not Lauren." Edward made a face as he said Lauren's name. I laughed, while saying, "Cheers." and clanging our sodas together. We took a sip of our sodas, then exchanged our sodas- his was mountain dew while mine was sprite. I made a face after I took a sip of his soda. "What?" Edward asked me as he drank more of his soda.
"Did you spit in it?" I asked him and he shook his head, smiling. "Well, just to let you know, I spit in that." I told him. He coughed as he was drinking, and then he spluttered his soda on himself. I was giggling, madly, as he looked at me incredulously. "You spit in my soda?" he asked me as I giggled. I shook my head, and then he smirked. "You're going to get it now, Swan!" Edward yelled at me playfully, as he set his soda over to the side. I immediately stood from my bed, as he followed.
"I was only joking, Edward!" I faked-begged with him, still giggling. "Well, joking comes with a price!" he shouted at me, and then he began chasing me around the room. I weaved my way through the room, as he nearly knocked into things. Luckily, nothing fell and broke.
He then caught me, as he stumbled over, and fell on top of me, facing him. We looked at each other, then busted into laughter. "Wow, maybe w-we shouldn't drink s-soda anymore before a chase!" I said between my laughter, as he nodded.
Then when our laughter died down, we gazed at each other, not moving away from each other. As Edward breathed in front of my face, tickling it, I began to feel dizzy. Soon, our lips were being drawn closer and closer…
"Woah, dude! Eddie's trying to "do it" to Bells! Get off my little sis, bro!" I gasped as I heard Emmett's voice boom from behind Edward. Edward whipped his head towards the door, and there stood Alice, Emmett, Rosalie and Jasper, staring at us on the floor. Edward groaned, then heaved himself off of me, while helping me up with him. Then, we shuffled a little bit away from each other, blushing deeply.
"Did we walk in while you guys…?" Rosalie trailed off awkwardly, while I blushed even deeper. "ROSE!" Both Edward and I yelled at her exasperatedly. "What?!" she yelled back, holding her hands up in surrender. "We weren't… doing anything!" Edward yelled for our defense, waving his hands in the air madly. "That didn't look like nothing…" Alice trailed off slowly. Both Edward and I groaned, and we flopped back on my bed, sitting cross-legged. Rosalie, Emmett, Alice and Jasper filed inside, and sat down on the beds.
Jasper smiled at us, while Edward glared at him. "Dude, for the last damn time, we weren't doing anything!" Edward yelled at him angrily, while Jasper rolled his eyes. "He secretly wishes it would happen to him and Emmett." I whispered loudly to Edward. He snorted, then began howling with laughter, along with Alice and Rosalie, while Emmett and Jasper looked disgusted. "Bells, why pick on me?!" Emmett and Jasper whine together, then looked at each other and laughed. "Well, mainly you started it, Em, and you wouldn't stop looking at us, Jazz." I told them, smiling smugly. "Hey, only I can call him Jazz!" Alice whined, glaring at me. "You call him Jazzy, Alice." I pointed out. Alice pouted, then smiled evilly at me.
"I think someone needs to be taken to the mall!" Alice squealed, while the guys groaned. "I don't mind." I stated, while Edward looked at me in horror. "Trust me, don't get my pixy for a sister started on shopping! She'll torture you!" Edward groaned, as he buried his head beside me, muffling his pleas for not going.
"Too bad, Eddie! You, Jazzy and Em are coming with me, Rose and Belly Welly!" Alice told him, cackling madly. "Don't call me Eddie!" Edward snarled at her, lifting his head. I looked at her, confused, along with the others. "Belly Welly?!" Emmett snorted, as everyone began laughing at my nickname from Alice. "Well, Bells was getting old, so that's her new nickname!" Alice squealed between her laughter. I blushed, and pouted. "You guys are meanies." I mumbled as I crossed my arms over my chest, my lip out from pouting. "Aw, look at her! She's mad at us." Jasper taunted. I turned my body away from them, as Edward wrapped his arms around me for a hug.
"Want to ditch them?" he asked me. I smiled at him, and nodded, giggling. I jumped off my bed, opened the door, and Edward ran over to me. He picked me up and threw me on his back, as I hooked my legs around his waist. I locked my arms around him, holding on tightly, and with that, he walked out of our dorm.
We were just about to turn the corner, until our dorm room door opened and Emmett poked his head out. "Where are you two going?" he asked us, but we smiled at him. "Away from you guys!" we shouted at him, together, and then, Edward ran out of the girl's dorms.
Edward ran outside, and he ran us over to the fountain, where more students were. Edward and I waved at our friends, and soon, Edward let me hop down from his back and I slid to the ground. "There you go, my princess." I blushed and my heart sped up from his nickname for me, but I thanked him back. We sat down on the ground, and just watched the sky, but it was pretty boring, since it was cloudy. Luckily, I had my I-pod, so I lent him an ear-piece and he put it on.
"Do you care what we listen to?" I asked him, but he shook his head. I chose, "Shut Up and Let Me Go" by The Tings Tings. He snorted, and I stared at him. "Nice song choice, Bells." I rolled my eyes at him. "You said you didn't care what we listen to." I pointed out and Edward rolled his eyes as well. "But must you choose a song that is annoying?" I gasped at his question, and smacked on his arm. "It is NOT annoying!" I shouted at him.
"Is too." He countered.
"Is not!"
"Is too!"
"Not!"
"Too!"
"NOT!"
"TOO!"
"It is so NOT annoying, times one million, times infinity!" I shouted at him, ending our back and forth argument. He sighed, but didn't argue back. "Whatever floats your boat, Bells. Whatever floats your boat…" he mumbled sarcastically, and I groaned in anger. "If you want to listen to my music, don't complain!" I yelled at him angrily. He looked back at me, and smiled. "Why are you smirking at me, Cullen?!" I asked him, hotly. How dare he think this is funny?!
"You look cute when you're angry." Edward stated, smirking widely at me. Damn my blush; I felt my face heating up from his comment. "Same thing for your blush." He added, ruffling my hair. "I can say the same thing for your blush." I countered with a giggle. Now it was his turn to blush. He looked away quickly, looking at the ground. "See? I like your blush too." Crap! Did I just admit that out loud?! I thought to myself, feeling my face heat up again. He looked up at me, smirking again, his cheeks still pink.
Finally, after we ate dinner- alone- we headed back to his dorm, and Emmett and Jasper were there. "Hey, Bells." They greeted me, ignoring us as the played their games. Edward and I rolled our eyes at them, and went over to his bed. He held me in his arms, as I took a nap.

Edward's POV
I held Bella in my arms, as I watched my brother and friend play video games. Soon, Bella started snoring lightly, signaling she had fallen asleep. "Man, that girl can fall asleep faster than Emmett!" Jasper joked as he heard Bella's snoring. "She can not fall asleep faster than me!" Emmett whined loudly. "Shh, shut up, retards! You'll wake her!" I hissed at them.
"Sorry!" they hissed back and went back to playing video games. I twirled a piece of Bella's hair in my finger, smiling down at her; Bella was grinning in her sleep. "Aw, look, Jazz. Eddie's love-struck." Emmett whispered. I grabbed a pillow that was on the floor, and chucked it at Emmett's head- all the while not disturbing Bella.
"Hey!" Emmett said loudly, but I told him to shut up. After another half hour of them playing video games, they shut their game system off and sat down on their beds. "Still love-struck…" Jasper whispered to Emmett. I rolled my eyes at them, saying, "I'm not love-struck."
"Sure you aren't, little bro…" Emmett trailed off suggestively. "Put the squirrel in the coconut…" Bella mumbled in her sleep. Emmett and Jasper snorted quietly, while I said, "Say anything about this to Bella, and I will personally destroy that game system over there!"
"But dude! This is classic gold! We could so torture her!" Emmett whispered, but I shut him up with a glare. "Love… Edward…" Bella mumbled. Ah, great! Now she just had to say that! And in front of my brother and friend, too! "Did she just say what I think she said?" Jasper whispered, and I nodded, sighing.
"She just said she loves you…" Emmett trailed off in a whisper, while I buried my face in Bella's hair. "Wait, she could mean she loves you as a friend." Jasper pointed out. We all stared at Bella, waiting for her to say something else.
As if she knew we were talking, she mumbled, "Kissy Kissy, Edward… I love you…" well, the 'kissy kissy' part basically proves it she loves me more than a friend. Emmett chuckled as well, from the kissy part, along with Jasper. "That means more than a friend." Jasper said between chuckling, while I flushed.
"Dude, are you afraid of the fact that she loves you?" Emmett asked me, but I shook my head. "This is just the sixth time she has said she loves me in her sleep." I explained, looking down at Bella. "Sixth?" Jasper asked and I sighed. "Alice has been telling me she's been mumbling it in her sleep back at her room. The first time I heard for myself was when Joshua attacked her." I explained it to them quickly.
"Well, there's one thing." Emmett began and I looked at him. "Do you love her back?" he asked me, and I looked away. "I'm guessing that's a yes." Jasper mumbled, and I nodded.
"Well, when are you going to tell her that?" Emmett asked again, but I shrugged. "I need to take it slow, guys. I mean, she thinks we're only friends, and I don't want her to be scared if I tell her I love her too soon. Besides, she doesn't trust most men." I pointed out.
"True, she doesn't. But, she does trust our baseball team, me and Emmett, but most importantly, you, Edward." Jasper told me. "She has so much faith and trust in you, bro. If you do something that makes her lose her faith in you, then you'll never be able to tell her the truth." Emmett added. "She has a lot of trust in me?" I questioned.
Both Jasper and Emmett groaned at my stupidity. "Dude, of course she does! If she loves you, do you think she wouldn't?" Jasper asked me sarcastically. "You better tell her soon, before you lose your chance." Emmett ordered me and I nodded slowly, not taking my eyes off of my Bella.
Hmm, my Bella. I like the sound of that.
Well, now basically everyone in the gang knows that Edward and Bella are in love.
Now, the matter at hand is WHEN will they confess?
That's for me to know, and you readers to find out.
I know some of you readers are getting so impatient for them to fall in love, but don't worry. They will fall in love soon enough.
Anyway, please review and it would be so nice if you guys could read the beginning of my newest story, "CROSS-OVER CRAZY!" and tell me what you think of it.
Bye for now!
