Chapter 9- Deals a Deal

Edward's POV

I could tell that Bella loved this movie. She was singing and dancing. I barely watched the movie because I was watching Bella. When the credits started to play, Bella jumped up and started to dance around the room.

"Bella what in the world are you doing?" Emmett asked.

Apparently Bella thought that, that was a funny question because she started to laugh really hard.

"I'm just…having…fun…and randomly…dancing." Bella squealed.

"Oh dear god, Bella is sugar high." Emmett actually sounded scared for the first time in his life.

Bella just continued to laugh and dance around the room.

"Remind me never to let Bella have sugar again." Emmett ordered.

Bella looked like she was about to pass out. I think she realized that too, because she started to dance over to her bed. She wasn't going to make it. She conked out and fell right into my arms.

They started to crack-up.

"Shut up! Bella's sleeping." I told them.

"Aww how sweet." Derek said.

"Edward you can put her in bed." Emmett informed me.

"Okay." I said and stood-up.

Bella consciously locked her arms around my neck. I walked over to her bed. I lied her down and she wouldn't let go of me. I was a few inches away from her face and I had to resist the burning urge to kiss her sweet, innocent lips.

"She won't let go." I told them.

"Rip her from your shirt." Austin suggested.

"No." I immediately said.

"Then there are 2 options. Option 1, you take your shirt off, or" Jasper said.

"Option 2, you sleep with her." Todd finished.

I badly wanted to say option 2.



I sighed, "Option 1."

I pulled my shirt off and Bella took it with her. The guys started to laugh, and I had to too.

"I'm gonna get a new shirt." I said and meandered upstairs.

Bella looked so adorable cuddling with my shirt. I can't wait until tomorrow night.

The guys and I had created this tradition for when Charlie left for over the Weekend:

Friday Night- Funny or Stupid movie

Saturday Night- Scary Movie

Sunday Night- Extreme Truth or Dare

I am going to make sure that we pick a movie that will scare the crap out of Bella. I walked back into the movie room and sat down on my 'bed'.

"So Edward…how much do you like Bella?" Jasper asked.

"I really like her…I'm…I'm falling in love with her." I admitted honestly.

"Then tell her, man." Emmett said.

"I…I can't. What if she doesn't like me like that?" I said.

"Trust me, Bella likes you. When she first came here I told her to stay away from you. But, I can see the way you two look at each other. You guys are meant for one another." Emmett admitted.

I let that information sink in and Austin turned the lights out.

Bella's POV

I woke-up with a major head-ache. I felt something draped over my arm. I lifted it up; it was shirt Edward was wearing last night. Why did I have it?

I smelled French toast, eggs, bacon, and sausage. I was too tired to go investigate.

Todd opened the door and the guys walked in.

"Morning Sunshine." Derek said, cheerfully.

I moaned, "Who made breakfast?"

"I did" Edward came in with 2 plates.

He handed me a plate.

"Impressive." I said.



"Thanks, what do you what to drink?" Edward asked me.

"A glass of grapefruit juice." I replied.

"I'll be right back." Edward said.

"Emmett hand me the remote." I ordered.

He tossed me the remote and d I turned the TV on. I found SpongeBob.

"Ya, SpongeBob." I screamed.

Edward handed me my juice and sat down. I finished eating after 1 episode of SpongeBob.

"I need to get ready." I announced and stood up.

"Get ready for what?" Emmett stupidly asked.

"Shopping, duh." I said and walked out.

"Duh, Emmett." Austin mocked.

I walked into the kitchen and grabbed my coffee cup, milk, chocolate syrup, and brewed coffee. I mixed it all together and added some ice. I just made a nummy Iced Mocha. I turned around.

"Edward!" I screamed.

"Sorry, so this shopping trip is our deal." He clarified.

"Yes, and for scaring me you not only get to come, you get to carry all of my shopping bags." I said, grabbed my mocha, and headed upstairs.

I decided on a jean cheerleading skirt, blue and green plaid knee-high socks, and a white blouse that went to my elbows with a blue and green tank-top sweater on top.

I grabbed my coffee, outfit and entered the bathroom. I locked the door and removed my clothes. I wrapped a towel around my body and turned the shower on.

Someone started to bang on the door.

"Bella I need to use the bathroom!" Emmett shouted.

"Too bad, use dads." I told him.

"Come on, it will take 5 minutes." He begged.

I grabbed his toothbrush, toothpaste, and hair brush. I opened the name and threw them in his face.

"There now use dad's bathroom! I have to shower." I yelled, and slammed the door in his face.



I took the towel off and got in the shower. I used my Strawberry shampoo and conditioner, and my Cherry Blossom shower gel.

"Bella get out of the shower. You've been in there for an hour!" Derek shouted.

I turned the water off and wrapped a towel around me. I dried myself off and slipped my tan thong on, with the matching bra, followed by my clothes.

I turned my hair-dryer on and brushed through my hair. When I was done, my hair looked layered.

"Bella it's been 2 hours! My god, woman." Austin shouted.

"Shut up!" I yelled back.

I did my make-up and cleaned up the bathroom.

"Bella you were in there for 3 hours straight." Emmett informed me, when I emerged.

I walked downstairs and into the kitchen. All of the guys were staring at me.

"Do I look okay?" I asked, nervously.

"If you weren't my sister, I would so ask you out." Austin blurted out and blushed.

Edward came and stood in front of me. My breath caught in my throat. He looked me straight in the eyes.

"Bella you look beautiful." He smiled my favorite crooked smile.

"Thank you." I whispered.

"Are we all going shopping?" Austin asked.

"If you all want to." I invited.

"Of course, we'll come. You spoil us too much, now it's our turn to spoil you." Emmett said.

"Do you guys really want to make that promise?" I challenged.

"Yes." Everyone, including Edward, said in unison.

"Your money." I warned and walked over to the door.

I slipped a pair of brown pair of plaid flats, and walked outside. I skipped over to Emmett's jeep and stared up. I felt a pair of arms wrap themselves around me. My heart was racing so they belonged to Edward. We just stood there for a few seconds, before he lifted me in.

Everyone else followed manner. Edward was sitting next to me, and my heart was jumping.



A/N- Okay there it was. I know it was short too, but I have been seriously busy. Cut me some slack! Review, Review, and…Review!
