Chapter 7- the field trip part 3
Bella Pov.
I could not believe that the week was over already. I was packing up my things
from my cabin while talking to Alice. We were trying to hurry because we were
supposed to be at the fire pit in 5 minutes.
"Come on Alice we need to leave." She gave me this look and turned to see all
her belonging, and trust me I think she brought her entire closet, was all
around the cabin. My few things on the other hand were already in my bag and
ready to go.
"I think I left my tooth brush in the bathroom this morning Bella can you go
get it for me?"
"I guess, but hurry up with the packing." I turned around and headed out the
door to go to the bathrooms. I knew that I was breaking the rules but hey it
was the last day what were they going to do to me?
The bath rooms were divided into three different parts. When you walked into
the door straight ahead was a wall for sinks and mirrors each mirror and sink
had been assigned to a different tent so that both boys and girls could use
them, to the left was another door that leads to the boy's toilets and showers
and on the right was the door for the girls. I went to look at our sink only
to find Edward there packing up his things.
"Hey Edward do you see your sisters tooth brush by any chance?" Thing were so
strange with the two of us ever since the third day we got here.
Flashback
I was the afternoon free time and everyone in our tent had gone off with
someone else leaving Edward and I all alone together. I had had a small crush
on him, I mean if you saw a hot guy you can't tell me that you would not be
attracted, and so I was a little nervous about being around him. After a while
we decided to go for a walk. We got permission to walk down to the lake, which
was not that far, from Chris. On the way down we just talked, I asked a
question and then he did, it was really nice. Once we got to the lake we sat
down and continued with our game of a million questions. After 5 hours or so
the constant cloud cover that had been there since we got here moved to make
way for rain clouds. We started to run up to a big tree so we would not get
wet and kept on talking. After a while I looked at Edward and he looked at me
and before I knew what happened he was kissing me. When we broke apart we
heard Chris and a few others from our tent, including Alice who has a big grin
on her face like she knew what was going on, looking for us.
We have not really gotten to talk alone since then for one thing I had been
avoiding him. He was always looking for a chance to talk to me, and I knew
what he wanted to say that it was a mistake or we should just be friends, but
I learned one thing from that afternoon, I was falling for Edward Cullen and I
didn't think I could stand to hear him say those words.
"Um no I have not seen it sorry." His voice brought my back out of my memory.
"Ok thanks." He looked like he was going to say something but Mike walked in.
"Hey Edward are you ready yet we need to get going?"
"Ya just a second." And he looked back at me as Mike walked back out.
"Bella there is something I wanted to tell you. It's about the other day; you
know when we went to the lake." O no he was going to tell me that it had been
a mistake and the he did not have any feelings for me. I knew it I tried to
hold the tears back.
"What is it?" But he never got to finish because Alice walked in.
"Bella come on were going to be late."
"Alice I thought you were packing?" I asked her.
"I finished."
"That fast?" I had only been gone for what 5 maybe 10 minutes max.
"Yep" she grabbed my arm and started to pull me out of the bathroom "you
better hurry up Edward, you're going to be late, see you soon brother" she
called behind her at Edward. I turned to look at him and he had a mixture of
annoyance and shock on his face. I waved bye and went with Alice.
We walked over to Chris by the fire pit and sat down.
"So what are we going to do for our last session Chris?" Alice asked. She said
this every time but when she asked the question there was a hint of sarcasm in
her voice, like she already knew.
"Were going to go around and say what we have learned on this trip." Great I
thought; let's see what had I learned. Um don't touch plants, I got poison Ivy
on the second day here, don't go by water, I fell into the river when we went
on a 4 hour hike my fourth day here, o ya and never ever forget to bring more
than one can of bug spray, my glowing body of bug bites was tribute to that.
Alice just thought it was funny and kept saying "you must be sweet." It was
endlessly annoying. By this time everyone was gathered around for our last
group discussion before we got on the bus to head home.
"Well it is out last discussion and what we are to do is say one thing that
you have learned on this trip." Chris started as he looked to Alice.
"I learned that tank tops and bugs don't mix." Everyone laughed at her, I
remembered that day when Alice had on a pink tank top and a spider fell from a
tree right onto her strap and started to crawl down her shirt.
"Ok not really what I was looking for but it's something you learned so it
works. Bella?"
Great my turn "um I learned that there are over 200 kinds of trees in this
area alone?" I thought that was the right number the teacher had said.
"Good job Bella, let's see who's next?" We went through everyone in the group
Eric, Tyler, Angela, Jessica, Mike and then it was Edwards turn. I had to
admit I was a little curious as to what he would say.
"And last but not least" Chris said "Edward what did you learn?" Everyone
looked to Edward expectantly.
"I learned that there is an amazing girl in my class that I have strong
feelings for and I really hope she returns them." He turned to me. "Bella
would you be my girlfriend?"
I sat there stunned. I was about to answer when the bus pulled up and our
teacher called everyone to get on the bus. I decided I would have to answer
him later and walked, more like ran to the bus. My heart beating erratically the whole way.
