Chapter 7: Unexpected visitor

BPOV

I woke up really early this morning - even Alice was sleeping when I did. I rolled my body to the bathroom, splashing my face with cold water do I can wake up, as usual. I washed myself and brushed my teeth, starting to get ready for showering.

Splashing my face didn't help me wake up, but the shower sincerely did. I dressed up simply, choosing to wear purple top with some writings on, and like everyday, skinny jeans, but I decided to wear the dark blue ones today. I applied some mascara on and got a dark purple eyeliner from Alice's make-up case, which she said that I could use it whenever I want to the other day.

I put my iPod in to my bag, rather called a school bag, although I only had two books – a book with chords and the one with scales and everything – and a few notebooks in it. I decided I could listen to some music while I was on the school brakes, if I wasn't distracted enough by Edward.

Today, I was bringing my guitar at school and leaving it over there. I would miss it while I was at home. I will survive. I had the most amazing two best friends now (it's funny how I know Alice for only few days, but I feel like we've known each other since we were both).

I got into my room, closed the door, got my guitar and started strumming on it lightly, hoping I would wake up the two sleepy heads. I started strumming "Wherever you will go" by The Calling. I started singing quietly, so my voice matched my strumming pretty well. Then, my favorite likes to sing came;

If I could, then I would,

I'd go wherever you will go.

Way up high or down low, I'd go wherever you will go.

The first time I've heard this song was about a year ago. I couldn't love the song any more, the lyrics truly are something. There are some special memories in my head, and when I hear this song, I always remember how painful was for me having to say goodbye to my mother and brother while they were going in other town to live, and I only got to see them once or twice a month. I missed them terribly, and I bet my father felt the same way. I started to get better at living away from them while I grew, but nothing could fill the emptiness in my heart I felt when we didn't live together as we usually did in the summer.

Yes, this song is a love song, but it still reminds me on the most important parts of my family.

I sighed at the same thoughts I just had.

I left my guitar and headed to the living room to check out what was on TV.

When I got there, Rosalie was making a coffee for herself. " 'Morning" She mouthed.

"Good morning" I replied. "Did you sleep well?" I asked right before I crashed on the sofa. I turned the TV on and started checking what was playing on each program while Rosalie was replying.

"Yeah. You? I had this real weird dream, I was in a coffee land. That's why I'm making one actually. Want one?" She said, handing me her coffee when I nodded, and started making a new one. Here, we were making coffee's in microwave. Mum would say 'technology'.

"I slept pretty well, I've no idea why I woke up so early this morning. Alice's still sleeping?" I wondered when I noticed I didn't see her awake yet.

"Believe it or not, but yeah, she is still sleeping. I think she hasn't even have an alarm on. I'll better wake her up, it's seven and twenty." She spoke, heading to Alice's room.

"I'll do it, you just make your coffee. Oh, and make on for Alice too." I said and slowly pushed my legs to go to Alice's bedroom.

I opened the door to find her totally peaceful sleeping on her huge bed. Well, the bed was a normal size, but huge for her.

I sat on the floor and started shaking Alice's shoulder humming "Alice, wake up. School time."

"I'll be up in a sec, mum" She mumbled in her dream.

"Alice, you really need to wake up now. I'm Bella, not your mum!" I said that too loudly and she finally opened her eyes.

"Bella? Oh… Gosh, I just turned off my alarm clock and fell asleep again." She quickly got up when she looked at the time. "And sorry 'cos I called you mum, Bella" She spoke fast right before she disappeared from the room.

"It's okay" I replied, knowing she didn't hear me.

I sighed while I got back to the dinning room, um, well kitchen/dinning/living room, and sat on a chair.

Rosalie turned around and sat opposite of me. "Well, that was as fast as wind" She pointed. She probably thought about how Alice woke up and started to get ready for school when she said that.

I nodded "Agreed." I took one sip from the coffee. "Rosalie, can I ask you a question?"

She thought for a moment, but then said "yeah."

I took a deep breath not sure how to start talking. "Errr… well. I'll admit something to you, eye-in-eye, if you promise to tell me why were you and Alice so happy last night before Edward left."

"No. I'm not telling you. I can't break a promise. Sorry" She made a grimace on her face I was already familiar with.

"C'mon Rose! Please! Give me just a sneak peak or something!" I begged. She put her finger on hear head, pretending she has a hard thinking time.

"Fine. Alice and Edward spoke." I instantly frowned after hearing that.

"I already know that part. Please, for my sake tell me just one simple sentence." I had to know. "Which I possibly don't know already" I added.

"Hmm… but promise you won't tell anyone that I told you, deal?" She looked in my eyes.

"Deal. I promise." I said almost too impatiently.

"Edward told Alice that he was in love." She closed her eyes as if she just said the more terribly wrong thing in her life.

I froze like that for a second. Edward was in love. Wow.

"With…?"

"Can't tell you. Ask Edward, he can tell you himself!" She said and I just shook my head.

Sleepy head got out of the bathroom, all ready. "Huh. Thanks for waking me up, Bell. I would totally miss classes if you didn't." She gave me a really thankful look and I just mumbled "no problem".

"We wouldn't let you" Rosalie said handing her a cup of coffee.

"Thanks, this will help" Alice said, drinking from the coffee immediately ask she got it in her hands.

We all had a little talk about everyday stuff, and then went to school. I almost forgot to get my guitar, but I saw Rosalie holding her bass guitar and Alice her keyboard, so I remembered that we are supposed to bring our instruments in school. I got my iPod out of my bag when I got in the car, put the headphones in my ears and started listening songs sung by Jimmy Eat World. I was humming with the music, so I didn't hear what Rosalie and Alice were blabbing about on our way to school.

When we finally got there, I got out from the car, got my guitar and started looking for Edward somewhere in the school crowd. I saw him sitting on a bench and automatically walked towards him. Alice and Rosalie for some reason followed me.

"Hey Edward," Alice screeched to get his attention. He was reading something, which I guessed it was his notes.

"Hello Alice. Bella… Rosalie" he said, looking at me.

"Hello Edward" I said, and Rosalie just nodded.

"Alice, you coming to put our instruments in the classroom?" Rosalie asked to which Alice replied "Sure. See you guys later."

"What are you reading?" I asked, trying to take a look at his notebook, but he closed it before I got there.

"Some… stupid lyrics I wrote. What are you listening to?" He asked, seeing me with my headphones in my ears.

"Oh, "A Praise Chorus" by Jimmy Eat World" I said, and without even thinking I put one headphone into his ear. He froze for a moment, but then started acting cool.

He listened to the song for few seconds, and then started singing;

I'm on my feet, I'm on the floor I'm good to go,

But what I need is just to hear a song I know,

I wanna always feel like part of this was mine,

I wanna fall in love tonight

His voice matched perfectly with the original version of the song.

"Give me your guitar" He said, pulling the headphone off. I did the same and handed him my guitar, looking confused. "I promised I will play out for you something, right?" He explained, grabbing my guitar.

"Right," I replied, putting the iPod back in my bag.

He started strumming a very familiar song. A Praise Chorus. He was better at playing than I imagined he would be. "Wow." I sighed "You are really good at playing my favorite song" I smiled.

"Thanks for the compliment" He stopped playing just to ask "Who is your favorite singer?"

I didn't have to think much, so I replied quickly "Avril Lavigne."

"You're enjoying rock music as I notice. Avril was pretty good until she turned in to a Barbie girl" He frowned as I nodded with a frown on my face as well. He started playing her song Complicated. "Sing, Bella."

"Okay" I mumbled, feeling my blush.

I like you the way you are,

When you're driving in your car

And you're talking to me one on one, but you become

Somebody else, 'round everyone else,

You're watching your back

Then he joined in with his deep voice that matched with mine pretty good, I admit;

Like you can't relax.

You're trying to be cool, you look like a fool to me,

Tell me

I smiled "You're a very good singer and guitar player. And your strumming is incredible" I complimented, making him grin.

"Thank you ma'am" He sounded like a gentleman "What's your first lesson?"

"Guitar. My schedule is same everyday." I sighed "I look at it in a positive way actually, I'm pretty bad at remembering my schedules."

"That's really good then, 'cos mine is same everyday too. So, we just won't have one lesson together out of four everyday" He laughed.

"Well, that's great…" I said "… having a friend in class everyday. That's just awesome." I blushed again.

"I agree. We're going in class now?" He stood up.

"Sure." I mumbled my reply, heading to the front door of the school.

It was enormous, and there were many students who were going in. There were many bimbos as I noticed, and many stupid smart ass boys. Everywhere you go you will find people like that, so I don't why I hoped not to find them here, at all.

"I'm kind of sad I'm leaving my guitar in school" I spoke, trying to get Edwards full attention.

"Why is that, Bella?" He asked kindly.

"Well, it's my only guitar, and I'll have nothing to play on when I'm not at school" I sighed, thinking of the loneliness I always felt when my guitar was away from me. Edward just looked at me, but didn't say anything. It looked like he was planning something, but I didn't dare to ask what.

Then, he suddenly said something I didn't expect to hear. "Are you one of those gossip girls, Bella?" I wasn't sure why, but he almost always said 'Bella' when he talked to me. Maybe he liked my name…

SHUT UP BELLA.

"Not really." I replied, thinking of what possible reason did he ask me about that.

"Don't you like the gossip girls, then?" He questioned when we walked in to the classroom.

"I usually don't care what people think of me. But I do, however, care about what people know about me. So that means I really despise people who have the urges to gossip and spread rumors that actually aren't true, but they are made up the way they are based on something that actually is true. Blah blah." I rolled my eyes. "Do you like the gossip girls?"

"No, I don't like them. That's why I asked" He smiled. "Don't you care about what I think of you?" He raised his eyebrows.

"Well, by people, I didn't mean every person" I winked. At the moment, I appreciated wearing Alice's eyeliner, 'cos he looked straight in to my eyes.

"So, you do care what I think of you?" He smiled the crooked smile I really loved.

I bit my lip. "Well, yeah. Will I ever find out what you think about me then, since you're asking?" I raised one eyebrow.

He chuckled nervously "You will, soon" He smiled, touching my face. Again, I felt the butterflies in my stomach. I felt like I was floating somewhere in the clouds of the heaven, somewhere where he and – wait. Did he just touch my face? Was that a flirt? I smiled.

He actually might like me.

No, not again.

The guitar lesson went really well, we all had to play out a song. I decided to play "Lyin' eyes" by The Eagles, remembering how my father liked it a lot when I started learning to play the guitar.

My teacher said I was really good of which I was proud. And Edward gave me a little applause.

The rest of the lessons went usual. And boring. Edward's prettiness kept distracting me all the time, which was a good thing. Sometimes when I attempted to stare at him, I caught him staring at me so I just looked away. The last lesson was very boring. Edward left after the third lesson, our last lesson together for that day, giving me a small hug saying that ditching lessons is healthy sometimes.

When I finally got home, Alice invited me and Rosalie to go shopping.

"So, Bella, are you coming?" She asked right after Rosalie said she will go.

"Will you be mad at me if I stay home? I really don't feel like shopping right now." And I never do. She smiled as if she just won a triumph, as if she knew what my answer was going to be.

"We won't be mad at you." She said and started getting ready. I glanced at the clock. It was 4:06 PM.

I turned to face the TV and started watching a movie that was already started. I was just looking for something to spend my time with. I kept fighting with the need to call Edward to meet up somewhere with me.

Unexpectedly, the door bell rang. I heard Rosalie and Alice laughing in the bathroom, and Rosalie yelled "Can you get that Bella?"

"Sure!" I stood up and hurried to open the door. And of course, I hoped it was Edward.

My hopes were worth – it was him. "Hey" My smiled had widen up when I saw his gorgeous face.

"Hey Bella" He gave me a one handed hug, he was holding a guitar in his other hand. "Is Alice home?"

"Yeah, she's getting reading to go to shopping." I explained "She's in the bathroom."

"Oh, then… I'll talk to her some other time. Would you mind if I stay here with you and Rosalie?"

"Rosalie's going too. And I don't mind you staying here" It's my only wish for you to stay here near me. Forever, if that's possible.

"Hanging out with you Bella would be awesome" He smiled and walked towards the sofa. He just left the guitar rest on the wall, and then sat on the sofa that was in front of him.

"What would you like to have as a drink?" I asked before I left to the kitchen.

"It's fine Bella, I don't need anything." He answered with a smile.

I shook my head "That won't do. Coke, juice, ice tea, mineral water, maybe natural water?" I offered.

"Okay then I'll have a glass of coke." He sighed.

I hurried to the kitchen, got out to glasses, got the coke out of the fridge and filled the glasses with it. I carefully closed the coke putting it back into the fridge. I picked up the glasses and walked to the living room where Edward was sitting, playing his guitar now actually, trying not to spill the drinks.

I put the glasses on the small table we had there saying "There you go."

"Thank you" He replied smiling.

"Why did your bring your guitar?" I asked, trying to start a conversation about whatever it was.

He continued strumming a song I didn't know, moving from very difficult chord to chord. "Well, since I was coming at Alice's place, I hoped you'd be here, so I got my guitar number two here, so you and me can play knowing your only guitar is at school" He explained.

"Guitar two?" I asked, raising one eyebrow.

He laughed. "Yeah, guitar two. Guitar one is back in Forks, this is guitar two and guitar three is in school. If we aren't including my electric guitar I have over here" He continued laughing.

"Well that's…. interesting. And a many guitars talk." I giggled.

"I know. Well, my parents are kind of rich – my father is a great paid doctor – so they let me and Alice buy "anything that's necessary"." He laughed. "I always wanted to become a doctor as my father, but then decided that music meant a lot more in my life" He said.

"Well, you are a great musician" I pointed out, supporting his decision to go to music school. Otherwise we would never meet!

"Thanks. Firstly I thought I would regret the decision for going in music school, but now I realize it's one of the best decisions I've made in my life" He looked down. "Will you play out a song for me please?" He looked in my eyes, and I couldn't resist but say yes.

"Sure" I said as he handed me his guitar. "What song?" I asked when I had no clue why did he want me to play.

"Have you ever heard of "Last goodbye" by Jeff Buckley?" He asked.

"Yeah, it used to be one of my favorites once. It's been a pretty hard song for me to learn to play on guitar, but now I think I play it pretty well" He looked surprised, probably 'cos Jeff Buckley is dead. That's how I found out about him in first place.

He gave me a sign to start playing so I did. I started playing, switching the chords surprisingly quick. Well, when I was learning the song I had only two months of experience, that why it was pretty easy for me to play it now.

"Wait, play the start again so I can see with which chords are you playing it." He requested.

"Sure. I play it with A, C, G, D at the start. Don't you?" I was surprised.

"I've been never playing this song before, Bella. I've only listening to it for a long time but never attempted to play it." He explained. My face changed from confused into it's normal shape.

"Cool" I murmured while he started singing the song perfectly. I joined him, and out voice matched pretty well again.

Like that we sang few other songs, I was playing most of the time. He used to say few sentences with his opinion about the songs, sliding his eyes on the guitar occasionally. He kept making me laugh, so my singing was pretty shaky. He kept saying I was really good.

Once, he said "The guitar suits you very good, Bella" leaving a smiled on my face.

"Not really" I smirked "Mike says guitar is not an instrument that suits me" He looked at me weirdly "Mike's my brother," I explained.

"Cool. Well, Mike is totally wrong. And I meant this guitar, dark blue is a color that looks amazing on you, even if it's a guitar." I laughed at his compliments about colors that look good on me. He was the only one that had the same opinion with me about that. "Keep the guitar, Bella. It's a gift from me for you."

What? A gift. No, no, no. I can not take his guitar.

"No, Edward. I can't it's yours. I would never accept a gift from you, especially not guitar!" I spoke loudly making him look in my eyes to see if I meant it. I was a terrible liar, so if I lied he would notice. But I didn't lie. I hated gifts since birth.

"Bella, do me a favor and keep the guitar," He continued with his amazingly nice expression.

"No. I can't. And I won't. I hate gifts" I pointed out, returning him the instrument.

"Bella. Please, keep it." He pushed it back towards me "I see that you hate gifts, but, accept this one, it's from me for you, and it'll mean a lot to me if you keep it, since your only guitar is at school. It'll make me really happy" He made a puppy dog face.

"Edward, I-"

"Bella."

"Fine… alright. I'll take it as you leave it here 'cos you're gonna come here a lot and you can't be without a guitar." I worked out with a compromise, making him come here more often. Very often.

"If that's how much I get, then I'll take it. Plus your deal suits me very well" He winked and then looked down. "Would it be possible if we have a… serious and slightly longer conversation?"

Oh god. "Okay" I muttered.

"Bella, I hardly know you but I really feel like I-" He started, but his mobile ringing cut him off.

"Hello?" He answered. "Who is this?... Tanya?... for gods sake, how stupid do you and Kate think I am?" he spoke angrily, hung up and threw his mobile on the wall, covering his ears with his hand.

"Edward?" I asked carefully "Is everything okay?"

"No!" He shouted. "Sorry" he apologized when he calmed down a little bit. "It's my ex-girlfriend's best friend Tanya. She thought she could make fun of me on the phone by calling me with number I didn't know. How stupid do that girls thinks I am?" He repeated with the same frustrated voice he spoke on the phone.

"I'm sorry…" I said, going closer to him.

"Don't be sorry, Bella. I've got to go now and take care of something… be safe, okay? I'll see you in school." He grabbed his jacked, hugged me kissing my cheek lightly, which wasn't what I said. "Bye, Bella."

"Bye" I said, standing in front of the door frozen until he closed the door.

He kissed my cheek.

How did you like it? You wanna get a kiss on the cheek from Edward too? :P

Just ask him in your review ;)
