Hello wonderful people of the FanFiction world, I know I haven't updated in forever but I'm back! I'll have a chapter written for Unshed Tears by tomorrow and I'll need at least ten reviews for this story before I update again. I hope you enjoy this chapter and tell me what you think. Remember the review bar is your friend.

The next few weeks turned out to be the most interesting weeks of my life. Since our talk, we both have attempted to …get along. It turned out harder than I thought; we always get into these heated debates over nothing. Yesterday the topic for debate was if schools were wasting their time trying to make the food healthier. Today it was if the headphones on Bella's Vans looked like strawberries, let's just say no one was winning this argument any time soon. (AN: This argument really happened between my friends and I.)
"Bella! How can you not see it, those two lines are the leaves and the ear pads are the berries!" I slammed my hand down on the table, willing Bella to see the damn fruit.
"What the hell are you talking about, its freaking headphones dumbass! If it was meant to be a strawberry it would be one and if anything it looks more like a penguin head then it does a strawberry!" Her face was flushed a deep scarlet as she threw her hands in the air with frustration.
"Hold up, did you just say it looks like a penguin head" My lips quivered, a laugh threatened to fall out. Seriously though, a penguin head, you've got to be kidding me!
"Yes Mr. Cullen, I said a penguin head…" She started telling me how it looked like it, but I never heard a word because I burst out in laughter from the hilarity that is Bella Swan.
"Congratulations Bells, you've just been elected as leader of the Magical Ponies from Rainbowland!" She glared at me before chucking her notebook at my head.
"Laugh all you want, but if you see the penguin it means you're not crazy" Bella stood up and strolled out the classroom, leaving me on the ground laughing and with big red splotch in the middle of my forehead. I quickly got up when I noticed the whole class staring at me as they packed up their things. I gathered up my stuff and apologized to the teacher on the way out. I scanned the hall for and soon spotted her by her locker talking to Angela Weber. I stealthily crept up behind Bella and whispered in her ear.
"It's not nice to ditch your best friend." She jumped in the air with a startled gasp before turning towards me with narrowed eyes.
"Yeah, it's also rude to interrupt people when they're talking to someone else." Her cheeks were splotched with pink as she lectured me.
"I'm sorry mother, I won't do it again," I turned my gaze towards Angela, who was standing awkwardly, waiting to continue her conversation with Bella.
"Hello Angela, how are you today?" Angela lifted her dull grey eyes up to his before answering.
"I'm doing fine…actually I'm doing great!" She walked away quickly with a big smile on her face, saying she was going to talk to some guy called Ben.
"Ok, that was weird, is she always like that?" I asked Bella as I watched Angela disappear in the crowds.
"Nope, something wonderful must have happened because I've never seen her smile like that before." Bella just shrugged it off before leading us to into the cafeteria. We decided it sit at what we now call our table and play our usual game of twenty questions, however the game we played always had a theme.
"Edtard, you're so going down, today is my day!"
"Really now Belly, have you checked your calendar cuz it's the month of Edward."
"Psh, the month of dumbass passed Eddie Boy!"
"Bring it Swan, you can't handle me, no one can, I'm greatness"
"Psh, your 'greatness' can kiss my penguins!"
"Shut up and put your fists in!"
" ROCK!"
"PAPER!"
"SCISSORS!"
"BOOM!!!!" Damn, she won, who knows what Bella is going to pick seeing most of her topics were extremely strange. Last week was Speedos… don't ask.
"I have decided, today's topic is…. relations!" Hmm, that doesn't seem that bad, I sure my relations with people were pretty ok, I think.
"Fine, you start, but we have the option to not answer one question of our choosing." She nodded her head in agreement before starting. The words that came out of her mouth told me this wasn't as easy as I thought it was. Shit, I'm about use my option to pass, damn you Bella Swan.

"So Edward, what's up with you and Angela?" It was an easy enough question; well that's what I thought until I saw Edward stiffen. His green eyes flashed with panic as he remained silent.
"Um… I think I'm going to pass on that one." He ran his fingers through his hair before stealing the cookie off my plate and eating it. I looked at him questioningly before pressing the issue.
"Why, it's a simple question?"
"Why Miss Swan, I believe it's my turn to ask the question." He smirked, knowing he was right. "So, what's up with you and Andrew?"
"Um, he's a good guy friend of mine, we help each other study for our classes and things…we talk about random stuff and he makes me laugh." I could have said a lot more but I noticed Edward's eyes harden as I spoke.
"What is he, your new best friend, are you trying to replace me Isabella?" Edward cried feigning shock. I laughed, he was so overdramatic, but I guess no one is perfect. Playing along I started to assure Edward he could never be replaced. I threw my hands over by heart and began.
"Why Edward, I'm appalled, a thousand Andrews couldn't replace you, you will always be my partner in crime, the yin to my yang, and the pig in my blanket…wait that sounds wrong but never mind, Edward you are irreplaceable!" I stood in my seat and started to sing:
Your a True Friend
Your here till the end
You pull me aside when something ain't right
You talk with me now and into the
night
Till it's alright again your a
True Friend
However before I could sing the rest, Edward threw me over his shoulder and ran out of the lunch room. Angry for cutting me off at the best part, I pounded on his back as I yelled at him for being an ass. He stopped in the empty hallway and sat me down on the ground. I continued to yell at him until once again I was cut off, however this time Edward covered my mouth with his hand. By this point I was irritated with being shut up and licked his palm. I smiled smugly as he wiped his hand off in disgust.
"That's what you get for messing up my song, idiot!" Edward glared at me and continued wiping his hand, geez, germophobic much.
"Bella, that song was messed up before you opened your mouth."
"That didn't mean you had to drag me out the cafeteria!"
"Yeah it did, Bella you were singing Hannah Montana in the cafeteria, everybody was looking at us and it was just plain weird having you serenade to me." I rolled my eyes; he acted like running out of the cafeteria with me over his shoulder wasn't weird.
"Oh stop being a big baby; I was trying to comfort you, seeing you were all upset because you thought I would replace you with Andrew."
"I was not upset, I was just messing around."
"Uh huh, you keep telling yourself that ok." We quieted, refusing to look at one another. The tension between us thickened and I began to squirm. I wanted to say something; anything but I won't be the first to give up. Finally Edward sighed and turned to look at me, repentance clear in his eyes.
"Look Bella, I'm tired of arguing, I'm sorry for everything, how about we just hangout?" He held out his hand and I stared at it, unsure of myself and if I handle this, handle us.

Bella just stared at my hand, conflict raging in her eyes, yet she didn't say a word. I pulled my hand back, slightly hurt by the rejection and turned away from her. I just wish I could gain her trust, I wanted to be her friend, I really did, but everything about her is just so confusing. I don't know what I should do and I feel like I'm going to screw everything up. Maybe we could never be friends. I started to get up when I felt Bella crawl over to me and pull me into a light hug. To say I was surprised would be an understatement; to be honest I was shocked. It took me a while to respond but finally I gently hugged her back.
"I'm sorry too, let's stop bickering and just talk, after all I wouldn't want to lose my partner in crime." She whispered in my ear before letting me go. I smiled slightly before leaning against the wall, side by side with Bella. We talked about anything and everything except the conversation in the cafeteria. It was a different but nice experience for us and I knew I would have to tread the waters carefully if I wanted our friendship to last. Hopefully Bella would feel the same way I did and let me prove myself worthy of her trust and in return be my friend.
Well there is my chapter, I hope you like it and I would really appreciate it if you reviewed!
Love Peace & Twilight,
