"Well I guess we should follow her.. or we could try and make a run for it." He said with excitement following through his eyes. As much as I wanted to take up his offer, Alice would probably kill both of us, and it would have been kinda rude to just leave Emmet, and Rosalie there.
"We better not Alice would find us eventually." He laughed and waved me inside.
I hadn't realized how long Edward and I had stayed outside. In that time the dance floor had been lite up and was flooded with dancing bodies. We followed Alice to a new table where Jasper was sitting with a drink. Edward slid into the booth so I slid in beside him.
"Wonder where our dates went?" I asked.
"Huh, I can't hear you." I leaned over to get closer to his ear.
"I said I wonder where our dates went." He either forgot about them or didn't eve realize they were both missing. His head snapped up and the two of us began to scan they surrounding areas. I moved my eyes from left to right and when i got to the middle of the dance floor I spotted them. Rosalie was grinding up Emmet's leg and you could tell he was thoroughly enjoying himself. Go figure. I leaned over once more.
"Looks to me that we have been replaced." I said while pointing to them in the middle of the dance floor. Edward glanced to where my fingers led his eyes. He began shaking his head and laughing. I laughed too realizing how stupid all this was. Being set up and in return end up getting stood up.
"Bella, Edward do you mind if Jasper and I go dance a little bit." Alice asked when the music had died down.
"No go ahead."
"Be my guest." Alice grabbed Jasper's hand and skipped to the dance floor.
"And then there was two." Edward joked while playfully hitting my side.
Edward and I sat there talking about random people walking by. We were making assumptions about their life, and it was getting quiet interesting. At the moment we were evaluating an older guy who had his sleeves rolled up and the buttons at the top loosened. He had some gay hair poking through his naturally brown hair. He had bags under his eyes also.
"Bella I highly doubt he is waiting for someone younger.. He just looks... over worked."
"I'm telling you he looks 'overworked' because he is hiding an affair from his wife. Look he has a wedding band on. Who comes to a bar filled with younger people when your married."
"Lots of people do to get away from everyone who is usually nagging him. I bet you twenty bucks that he drinks his drank pays and leaves."
"I bet you he sits there a little longer, then is joined by a younger woman and they leave together"
I stuck out my hand and he lifted his and shook on our little "bet." I once again felt that shock go through me, it was getting to ridiculous specially my to reactions to it, I could feel the blood rush to my cheeks. I looked down to try and hid it. Until I felt a shock run through my cheek. Edward was running his hand across it.
"You blush a lot. It is very lovely with your skin tone." He stared into my eyes for a second or two before dropping his hand and putting them underneath the table.
"Thanks." I muttered more to myself then anything. We sat in the booth for about another five minutes before Edward finally cracked.
"This is ludicrous I refused to sit here while my date goes and dances with your date, " He stood up and grabbed my hand pulling me towards the dance floor. "Come on Bella lets go have some fun." I stop dead in my tracks realizing where he was taking me.
"Uhhh Edward I can't dance.. like at all .. not one bit." He turned and smiled.
"Don't worry... I can." With that he literally picked my feet off the ground and dragged me to the one of the corners of the dance floor.
When he reached where he wanted to be he turned to face me and grabbed both my hands.
"Alright now all you have to do is follow me and you will be a pro in no time." He lifted my hands then dropped them sliding his hands down to my waist. I could feel a tingling feeling spreading throughout my whole upper body, it made me nervous but hunger for his touch at the same time. He used his hands to make my hips sway back and forth. The way he was staring at my body caused me to unthinkable to make hands and cover up. He started laughing at me once again.
"Bella don't cover up your body. Your too beautiful." I completely stopped what I was doing and just stood still. It was like I forgot how to move.
Edward noticed and pulled away.
"Don't move a muscle, I have an idea so I'll be right back." With that he ran towards the front of the floor.
Edward's POV.
I placed my hands on her hips showing her how to sway with the music. During this time I got so caught up in her body I found myself just staring. She noticed too because her hands flew to cover herself up.
"Bella don't cover up your body. Your too beautiful." She suddenly became very still. Obviously this wasn't he style of dancing. I did the only thing I could think of. I pulled away quickly.
"Don't move a muscle, I have an idea so I'll be right back." I said then took off running to the DJ's booth. I grabbed a pencil and a piece of paper and wrote this: pick a slow song that fits a beautiful women. I left the song up to him but made sure he knew how to dedicate the song. so on the next line I followed with this: Dedicated to a blushing beauty by your blind date master.
I handed the paper up to the DJ and he nodded his head. I spun around and sprinted back to where Bella was. I found her standing awkwardly in the same corner. When she saw me she moved towards me.
"Where did you go?"
"You'll see." I simply stated. At that exact moment all the music started and the DJ asked for everyones attention.
"Seems we have a dedication to blushing beauty from your blind date master.. he didn't specify a song so I hope this one works for you."
Bella started laughing. "Is that what you just did ran up there to do?"
"Of course now come on let's dance." I grabbed her hands and put them around my neck. Then I reached out and grabbed her hips once more and pulled her body close to mine. Perfect fit. i pulled her closer and she dropped her head on my chest. I honestly couldn't even tell you what song we were dancing to or if there was anyone to left of me I wasn't paying attention to anything else besides Bella.
It was amazing how she seemed to capture my attention. I began thinking back to yesterday when I was asking her all those questions she made herself seem SO... different then how she acted. She made herself seem like every other girl I have meet before.. only concern with looks. But right now here in my arms she seemed like a different person. I knew at that moment I had to get to know her better figure out this mystery she presented me with on finding out who exactly was Bella Swan?
