Thank you all for reviewing, I know you're going to hate me for taking so long to update, but here it is. Next chapter is going to be Port Angeles, so PLEASE REVIEW! TELL ME WHAT YOU THINK, IF YOU LIKE IT, ANYTHING! lol, next chapter is very important, and I would really like to get a lot of reviews to see if I'm going in the same path. I don't want it to be like Twilight, exactly, if you catch my drift. I'm sorry for any mistakes. I'm also sorry if it's rushed, but I tried to make it long because of my plan for the next chapter. So yea. I'm sorry. lol
Disclaimer: I don't own Twilight.
The rest of the week, Bella would come to my room and wake me up, and I would always end up smelling her hair one way or the other. She would drive me to school and back home. We were always talking, or asking questions. I would always ask her little things like her favorite books, movies, colors, things like that. I just wanted to learn more about her. I would ask her things about her old life with her parents, or Emmett, but she always ended up changing the subject. I learned that her favorite color, wasn't just one. She changed it most of the time. I also found out that she likes classical books, and enjoys some classical music. She would do the same to me, asking me my favorite color, and gems, flowers, books, songs. I got really embarrassed once because I mentioned my favorite flower was Freesia, and I know the only reason for it to be freesia was because she smelled like it.
She didn't notice my embarrassment, and we continued shooting questions at each other. I told her about my family, and my mother, and father. I told her how I never talked to him. I also mentioned how much we love Hazel. At school I would barely see Dougie and Billy anymore. Millie and the rest understood. Millie said I was falling and hard. As much as I want to refuse, I think there might be a slight chance that I am falling. The only problem is that her secrete is driving me insane. What ever it is, it's blocking out other secretes of her too. The rumors seemed to be going around that she and I were together some sort of way, I loved how she was so shy about it.
Although there were rumors that didn't stop girls from asking me to the dance. Some way or another Bella would find out, and she would always be there to 'save me', as she puts it. I don't mind though. I like how she gets possessive. The end of the week was coming by, and today was Friday. This is the last day for Bella to drive me. I think I'm going to miss it. I walked out into the parking lot looking for her. I got on my toes to look over the sea of people.
"Edward!" Dougie called my name. I turned around as he and Millie ran towards me.
"Hey." I said. They both smiled when they reached me.
"Edward, me and Billy, and Millie are going out tomorrow. Why don't you come with us?" Millie said using her hands to talk.
"Well, where are you going?" I asked as I examined their eyes getting hopeful.
"We're going to go to Port Angeles to catch a movie. Then we're going to go to dinner at some Italian restaurant or something. I don't know dude, but Billy is paying for dinner, so free Italian food is good to me no matter where it is from." Dougie answered as he put on a weird facial, puckering out his lips with his eyebrows high. I laughed.
"Sure. As long as you guys want me to attend, I will." I said with a shrug. They both grinned.
"Well, Romeo, we got to go, but we'll pick you up tomorrow. Ok?" Millie asked pointing her finger at me. I nodded.
"Wait…Romeo? What?" I asked confused. They laughed and walked away. I shrugged and turned around to see Bella leaning against her truck waiting for me. I smiled. I walked towards her truck, the sense of relief that always rushes through me was pumping hard in my veins. Bella smiled.
"Hello." She said with a sweet smile. I smiled back a lop sided grin, that I learned she loved.
"Hi." I said back. She smiled even wider and leaned away from the truck.
"Let's go." She opened her front door as I walked towards mine.
"So…." I started. "This is the last day of the rides." I said not meeting her gaze. She nodded her head.
"Yes." She sighed.
"What? You're upset?" I asked the enthusiasm in my voice pouring out.
"Well, not really. We'll still talk….right?" She glanced at me. I smiled. She really did care.
"Yes, but I am upset." I said looking at her. Her lips started to twitch at the corners, and I could tell that at any given moment, she would break into a smile. I was right.
"Well, you'll live Mr. Masen." She teased. I grimaced at the word Masen. Mr. Masen. Ugh. I don't like to be called that. She seemed to notice my dislike and broke out laughing.
"It's not funny." I muttered.
"Yes it is. I should call you that more often." She giggled. I stared straight out the window, not meeting her intense topaz eyes. I didn't want to talk about it. I hate it when people call me that. It reminds me of my father, and I don't want to be like him, moping around all the time, doing extra work, just to forget about my mother. That's cowardly. Suddenly I felt Bella's little cold fingers lift up my chin. Her eyes were full of honest. "I'm sorry." She said. I smiled at her. I couldn't ever be mad at her.
"It's no big deal." I said reassuringly. She smiled even wider and turned her attention back to the wheel. We arrived at my house in a matter of minutes. I started unbuckling my seat belt. "Well, I'll see you on Monday?" I asked, hope deep in my chest. She smiled and nodded. I grabbed my book bag and grabbed the handle on the door. I looked back at Bella one more time. She looked deep in thought, like if she was debating something. I could see the frustration in the way she furrowed her brow.
"Bella." I finally said. She looked up at me, her eyes filled with some unwritten emotion. I found myself opening and closing my mouth. I didn't know what to say. I finally closed my mouth and looked down. I glanced back up to her and lifted my hand to caress her soft cheek. She let me by staring intently at my eyes. I moved my thumb, as it softly caressed her cheek bone. Her skin was so smooth, like marble, or granite, and it was glowing, glowing from my touch. Her skin was still as cold as I remembered. With a sigh, I smiled her crooked grin and said, "Goodbye." I hopped out of the truck please with myself, and a bit smug as I left behind a stunned Bella. I glanced through the corner of my eye as I saw her shake her head and start driving. I smiled.
At least now I know I had some sort of affect on her. I opened the door to the house and stepped inside. As usual, it was empty, well except of Hazel. I ran up to my room and jumped on the bed. My mind started to drift off to different places, I wasn't really thinking at all. I was just feeling cozy as the sound of rain hit my window lightly, and I stirred in my comfy sheets. Soon, sleep took over me.
Dream
I was walking around my house, and walked to my back yard. Suddenly my backyard changed into the meadow I had found. Bella was laying down in the meadow waiting for me. I walked towards her. I didn't have to talk, she looked up at me and smiled. I sat down next to her, but we never touched. We just stared at each other. It was comfortable. Suddenly Hazel popped up in front of me.
"Yellow eyes……Cold……Beautiful……Wolves." She said. The words were fading, and so was she. Everything was fading, and was turning black. I was standing up and turned to look at Bella. Her topaz eyes were tortured. I walked up to her, but every step I took seemed like she was just getting one more step away from me. She was untouchable. Hazel's eyes rung in my head again, and this time when I looked at Bella, her eyes were pitched black, and she was wearing a black cape. She suddenly lunged at me, and I screamed.
"WHAT?!" I snapped out of my dream, sitting up. I was covered in sweat. What the hell? I shook my head. Well that certainly was a strange dream. I got up from my bed and walked towards the bathroom. I grabbed a towel. It said 6:35 on my clock. I was still a bit tired. I walked into the shower and let the water run. What did that dream mean? Again the feeling of recognition came to me, running through my veins. It was like I knew something, but it wouldn't come out. All I could think was Bella is not the bad guy. She just simply isn't. That's when I noticed it. The truth of my own words. Deep inside I knew her secrete. Mentally, I hadn't a clue.
I sighed and turned off the water. I walked out and wrapped a towel around my waist. After I changed I walked out into the hall. I saw my dad walking up the stairs towards me, he was looking down at some book.
"Hey Edward." He said not looking up from the book.
"Hi." I mumbled. He looked up at me surprised.
"Is something wrong?" He asked finally looking up from his book. I shook my head and kept walking.
"Everything is fine dad." I muttered and continued into the kitchen. I could smell the pizza from where I stood. It was on the counter and out in the open. I opened the box more so that I can take out a slice. I put it in my mouth and started to chew and swallow. When I was done, I walked up the stairs to Hazel's room. I poked my head in to say goodnight and went off to my bedroom. I closed the door behind me, leaving it unlocked, while I secretly hoped that maybe Bella would be here tomorrow morning. I opened climbed on my bed and continued with the sleep that was interrupted earlier by that strange nightmare.
Next day.
I woke up at 3:00 in the afternoon. How I was able to sleep that long I do not know. But what I do know is that I got ten different text messages from Billy and the others saying to meet them up in Port Angeles. I rubbed my eye and started dialing Billy's number. After about three rings it finally picked up.
"Edward! Where the hell are you?! The movie is starting and you're not going to make it man!" He shouted. I could hear the people shush him in the background. I chuckled.
"I'm sorry, I over slept." I said shrugging. "Well, I'll meet you at the restaurant." I said as I got up, and grabbed a towel.
"Fine. But, bring Millie something sweet, like chocolate…..or a chew toy. She's throwing foam out of her mouth from how pissed she is that we had to wait for you." He giggled. I could hear the movie going on.
"Ok. I'll be at the restaurant. Text me the directions. Bye." I said as I hung up. I darted towards the bathroom and started my shower. After I finally looked somewhat decent, I put on a grey long sleeve shirt and some dark jeans with my coat and sneakers. I left my hair all untidy knowing that there was no use. I ran out of my bedroom door and into the kitchen. I grabbed a granola bar and stuffed it in my mouth, as I took my car keys out of my pocket. I didn't say good afternoon to anyone, I went straight for my car and turned it on. Port Angeles here I come. Oh, wait, I better get Millie that chew toy. I sighed. This was going to be an interesting night.
Please Review. :)
