Chapter 7

"Let go of me" I yelled.

He continued to hold my arm.

I tried to get him off me but he was strong. It was obvious it was a He.

Then a sudden light made me blink.

How could I not know who it was?

I wanted to hit his stupid bronze head.

"What the hell is your problem?" I asked him and he finally let me go.

"I've got no problem" Edward said and smiled.

"You're a sick bastard" I said to him and he looked at me amused "I mean, why can't you be a civilized person and talk to me like one"

"Where's the fun in that?" he asked me.

"Dear Lord" I said to myself "it isn't supposed to be fun it's suppose to be civilized"

"I just wanted to say I'm sorry" he said and looked down.

"Well" I said "you just made me angrier"

"Oh" he said and I could feel the regret.

"Look" he said and I looked at his eyes, they were so green and beautiful "I'm going to Jasper's right now and maybe if you could give me a ride we could talk a little"

"You have your own car" I snapped.

"Yeah" he said and smiled "But I can't talk to you if you are not there in the car with me. Now can I?

He was so arrogant. I mean first he think I'm freaking actress trying to be nice to him to get something, then he attacked me us if he was an animal and now he wanted to talk. Was he serious?

"Fine" I said finally. I was shocked I couldn't believe I had just said that.

I smacked my forehead with me hand and cursed myself under my breath. Why was I acting all stupid and idiotic around him was a complete mystery to me.

We got inside my car and I turned the music on. The Aqua CD was still playing I smiled.
"Okay" I said "Explain then"

"Right" he said I could tell this was really hard on him "I'm sorry I said you were acting I just… I'm just not used to it.

"Everyone in the school hates me and I just thought you were having a bet with Lauren and Jessica" he stopped and sighed "you know… like I bet you can't get the freak to like you"

"That's ridiculous" I said "I'm not like that I wouldn't do that at all"

"Now I know" he said.

"You should have known before" I said "I mean I was totally nice with you and I really thought we had a good time in English and then suddenly you say this to me and I felt like a complete idiot".

"I know" I looked at him as if he was crazy "look… I had a great time with you too… I mean you are clearly not like anybody else I've known and I really think we could be friends. But I had to know for sure"

"It was wrong" I said without looking at him.

"I know" he said "I screwed up"

"Where does Jasper lives?" I asked him.

"Right there" he said pointing to the house right next to me.

"I guess we are neighbours" I said mostly to myself.

"Which one is your's?"

"To the left of his" I said and smiled.

"I'm really sorry" he said to me once again "Would you forgive me?"

"I'm not the forgiver type" I said "But I think I can try"

"Great" he said and I looked at him. He was freaking glowing.

He said goodbye and jogged toward Jasper house I jumped out of the car myself a few seconds later.

I couldn't believe I forgave him. I never had forgiven when somebody was rude with me, but I guessed we could be friends. Besides I really like Alice and to be friend with her I had to be with Edward, I needed to forgive him after all.

Great… at least now I had an excuse for doing it.

And as I lay down in my bed my mind wondered in what may happen the next day, and if someday I was going to be brave enough to tell Edward I like him.
