Chapter 7. BPOV
I hate Mondays. I don't even understand why God created Mondays. After creating the world in six days, it was that Monday he rested on, right? So why can't we rest? Or we could go from Sunday to Tuesday. But then Tuesdays would be like Mondays, right? And then I'd want it to go Wednesday, Thursday, Friday, Saturday, Sunday, and start over again. But then I would want to get rid of Wednesday, and I would soon run out of days if it kept up like this.
The fact the two strong yet small arms were wrapped very tightly around me and I had been licked on the cheek woke me from my very confusing thoughts that most likely only made sense in my mind.
"Alice! What the hell?" I said wiping the Alice-slobber off me and wiping it back on her.
She laughed, "Hi, Bells! Let's go to class." I swear, sometimes that evil little pixie was insane. In fact, I'm pretty sure she is.
So as I said, I hated Mondays. We had homework in every single class except one, Bio, which we had a test in. Luckily I'm super duper good at it, because I totally forgot we had the test. I tripped three times, ran into a brick wall which turned out to be Emmett... again, and ran into a pole, because I was talking to Rosalie headed to lunch. To top it all off, I was out of gum! Damn.
I sprinted to where Alice normally parked. I was riding home with her because we had a no-guidlines project due in Home Ec. in a couple weeks. I was going to be spending a lot of time at the Cullen house.
I stopped dead in my tracks. It wasn't there. Her Porche. That means no gum. There was, however, a stupid shiny Volvo there. I glared at it. How dare that car take the place of the car that always has gum! Curse you!
"Uh, Bella... Is there any reason you're shooting daggers at my baby? I don't think it's done anything to you," a velvety voice said behind me. Edward.
"Because! I... Well," I started to think that it was a pretty strange reason, "I don't know," I sighed, deated. The mighty Volvo has triumphed again!
He laughed, "Well there was an emergency meeting for that club Rose and Alice were in... Something to do with clothes and makeup," I shuddered, "So Alice told me just to take you back to the house."
I didn't understand why there were butterflies in my tummy all of the sudden. I ignored them, "That's cool."
I felt comfortable around Edward, so I felt comfortable in his car.
When we pulled out on the road, I started making conversation, "So what's in your CD player this stupid Monday? If Miley Cyrus comes on, I will shoot you," I said turning up the radio. I hated her with a firey passion.
"Bella I wou-" Edward started saying, then the most God awful music started playing. It was some song my Miley Cyrus. To me, the title sounded like she was talking about a wild tiger.
I immeaditly flipped it to the radio and tuned it to my favorite station.
"God, Edward! Do you know how horrible my day has been? And now I've just been tortued and perminetly scarred," I said. What kind of boy other than Emmett has a Miley Cyrus song playing in his car?
Edward laughed lightly. The nerve... "That's not mine. I had to take Alice and Rose to school today," he explained. Oh...
I laughed, turning the music up a little more. After all, it was Cobra Starship baby!
"Let's make a mess
Steal a kiss in the moment
You and me, everything that we could be
Touch, don't go
Stay as long as you like
Let's get reckless
Dance with our hands to the beat
Don't let this slip through our fingers
It feels insane
Don't you put up a fight
Let's ruff it up 'til they shut it down
It's ah ah obvious
Right here's where the party starts
With you and me
All alone, no one has to know
It's ah ah obvious to me
How it's gonna be
It's ah ah obvious when you come close to me"
I sang along to one of my favorite songs. Edward kept glancing at me every so often. I didn't mind, though. I just kept singing without a care.
Eventually we pulled into the driveway of my second home. Being a gentleman, Edward opened my door for me.
"Chivalry is dead, Eddiekins," I said sweetly, getting out of the car and walking toward the front door.
He ran to my destination and opened it. I rolled my eyes.
"It's not dead. Just retired," he responded, while I walked through the door. Hmm, never heard that one before.
Edward and I decided on heading up to his room to work on homework. We had a lot of the same classes, but only a couple together. Actually, he sat next to me in Biology.
Finally, I gave into the temptation.
"Edward?" I asked, chewing on my bottom lip. It was an old habit.
"Hmm," he said, working on an equation. I waited until he looked up, done, until I spoke again.
I took a deep breath, "I know I haven't known you for a very long time and I shouldn't be asking you for this so soon, but I need it very badly, I haven't had it in a long time⦠I can already feel it going in good and hard and coming out nice and soft. If you would do this for me, no one would ever know. I'm sure you can satisfy my needs and I'd be very grateful if you would. I am very desperate and I need your help. You must think I have a lot of nerve. But I can feel my tongue wrapping around it and sucking all the juice out until its very dry. Its been on my mind all day and I'm not gonna beat around the bush anymore. Do you have a piece of gum?"
He just looked at me for a while.
"What?" I finally asked. Jeez, did he have a staring problem.
Then, Edward started laughing histarically.
"I repeat the question of, what?" I asked again. After a little while, I gave up and just waited for his sudden laughing attack to end.
"Sorry, Bella," he finally answered, calming down, "Do you realize what I thought you were gonna ask for? 'going in good and hard and coming out nice and soft' What the fudge was that?" he said, laughing a little again.
What did he mean by tha- Oh. Yuck. I would never... This time I laughed when I regesterd what he said, "Wait, fudge? What's wrong with fu-"
"Shut it! I don't like to cuss a lot..." Edward said softly.
I smiled, "Awe, someone's a softy."
He looked at me, "Am not."
"Are too."
"Am not."
"Are too."
"Am n-"
"Edward! We sound like five-year-olds! Now do you have a piece of gum or what?" I said finally.
"Uh..." he said standing up. He went over to his bedside table and rummaged around a bit, "Aha! Found some. Is Stride Shift okay?"
"Berry to mint?" I questioned. He nodded. I grinned, "Give me!" He smiled and threw me a piece.
I crumpled up the foil into a little ball. I spotted a small trash can Edward had in his room. It was a little ways away.
"Do you think I can make it from here?" I asked Edward, gesturing to the little foil ball I had and the trash.
He smirked, "No way!"
I tossed it and guess what? It made it!
I got up and danced around a little bit, "Ha! Stick that in your juice box and suck it!" Edward laughed at me.
We calmed down a little and continued our homework. We finally got done.
I saw some headphone sticking out of Edward's bookbag. He had gone downstairs to get us some water, so I decided to take a peak at his music.
I stuck the ear pieces in my ears and scrolled through his library. Wow, he had a lot of songs!
And I liked every single one of them. A particular one I had just learned stuck out, so I played it.
"It's been a year
Filled with problems
But now you're here
Almost as if to solve them
And I can't live in a world without you now."
"Bella? What are you listening to?" I heard Edward next to me. I had closed my eyes, so I re-opened them.
I smiled and turned his iPod off. I noticed he had an iPod dock, so I stuck it on there and pressed play.
"'Cause when I looked in your eyes
And you dared to look right back
You should've said 'Nice to meet you, I'm your other half.'"
When the song ended, Edward smiled, "Great song."
I was about to respond when Alice burst through the door, grinning ear to ear.
"Bella," she sang, "Would you concider being a model?"
So, here I was. On a footrest. Standing. Being tortured. There were sharp things around me, like pins and needles. And there were also things I'm sure I could get suffocated with.
It had been a few weeks since Alice had asked me to be a model. Turns out the emergency meeting was about the principle asking Alice (who was the president of the club) to put together a fashion show. It would count as her Home Economics assignment and if her partner participated in to, she was excuse from the project to. That's all I needed. I was in.
The weeks flew by in a blur. Alice and Rosalie were always running around to find the proper fabric or the best color for my complexion. They were like non-stop fashion machines. They would randomly and constintly come up to me, put a color of makeup or cloth next to me, and walk away. It was wierd.
Edward and I grew considerably closer, and him and my brothers became best friends. Edward and I were practically inseperable when I wasn't being primped or having to be a manican. We were exactly alike. Actually, Edward had even told me about well... Me. That night. And he looked genuinly upset. I was so close to cracking. To breaking down and telling him it was me. But there were two things holding me back: I was afraid he was going to be upset it was me, or he wouldn't believe me. I kept telling myself that what he doesn't know won't hurt him.
It was the night of the fashion show, and I was just afraid of tripping. Alice was doing some last minute fittings on my three outfit I was going to have to model while Rosalie did my hair and makeup.
Finally, I was walking out on the stage. I looked for my brothers and Edward before heading out. I had practiced this walk a lot, but I still had to be careful.
Alice had made a fabulous dress from scratch. It wasn't something I would ever wear in real life, even if Alice forced me. It was a short strapless dress, the bust was made with a black, silk-like fabric. Underneath that there was a small lacy strip of black fabric. The rest of the dress was a torquise blue color. The fabric was very thin, but Alice had made multiple layers, making it poofy, but it ended mid-thy. She also made me wear some black leather peep-toe ankle boots. For jewelry (which I didn't think was nessassary, but Alice and Rose said it was mandetory) I had a black onyx cocktail ring and a big sliver heart with a crown on top with black detail. Rosalie had done my makeup with a dark smokey eye and a very pick lip color. My hair was in soft waves I made it through that, getting whistles from my brothers and some other guys and a crooked smile from Edward.
When I was backstage Rosalie wiped my lipstick off, replacing it with a soft pink lip gloss. She also took off some of my eyeshadow, but kept it halfway on, making the charcole color turn gray, and it was just on my eyelids and a little above. She also sweeped my hair into a quick ponytail. As soon as she was done, Alice pushed me into the dressing room with some clothes. I changed and then had two shoes thrown at me, one barely missing my head.
"Ha!" I said to Alice. Just about that time some piece of jewelry hit me. Pooper nuggets.
I headed back onstage. I was dress in outragously short jean shorts, that ended at the top of my thy. I prayed I didn't fall. It was cute though; it was made out of a gray silky fabric and it was ruffled, at the top there was a thin strip of black. I had a black sweatshirt on, but it was Alice. It hung off my shoulder and ended just below my belly button. It was expected Alice was going to make me wear ridiculous Stilleto heels. I also had a long chain with a unique flower with white petals at the end and a blackened silver ring that was cut with a lace-like detail.
For the next set, I got a say in it. I kept my hair and makeup as it was, but I changed into a plain white T-shirt that showed a little of my stomach. I had plain dark skinny jeans with no holes in them. I got to wear these really cool hightop Converse with white canvas decorated with muliti-colored cheeta spots. I had a long-hanging thin black chain that sported an upside-down love sign, the kind that people make with their hands and three leather bracletes with stiching. Each one had a couple of charms on it. I had a ring that I had to wear on two fingers that spelled out 'love'.
I walking back to stand with everyone, because I was the last person to walk, when I tripped. I was still at the end of the stage where you turned around. I fell backwards onto someone. I immeaditly turned red and looked to see who it was. Of course, I landed in Edward's lap.
He laughed, "Hello, Bella."
I smiled, "Bye!" I jumped up and hopped back onstage and ran to join everyone else. The whole audience laughed, but most of them knew how clumsy I was, so it was nothing new.
A/N: Awe! I forgot to post this chapter last night. I got done writing it at 12 PM, so I was pretty tired.
The two songs are Obvious by Hey Monday & The Best Thing by Relient K.
I'll probably update again today soon. I'm gonna finish watching the E! True Hollywood Story about Mary Kay Letourneau... She raped a 6th grader...
