Chapter 9:Camila

BPOV

I've always thought I had a knack for screwing things up. Now I am completely sure of it. Just the fact that I was the one that slipped up when I was the one warning Rosalie and Alice to be careful around the guys is proof enough. Not to mention the fact that I lost a bet, setting me back fifty bucks, all because I am extremely insecure. Which brings me to the conclusion that I have to be the most unlucky person in the entire world.

Let's just recap on some of the reasons why I'm unlucky, shall we?

1) I hate shopping and/or makeovers. Just so happens, I get stuck with two sisters who absolutely love those two things.

2) I am one of the most clumsiest people you will ever meet. Just so happens my two sisters are way more graceful then me and outshine me on looks too.

And 3) I believe myself to be a guy repellent, which is good because I am too shy and constantly make a fool of myself. But no, just so happens that, even though we should avoid men for our own safety, we find three very charming young men living exactly one level below us that seem to attach to us like Alice on credit cards.

Nope...I'm not unlucky at all...

Lucky for us the guys didn't seem to think too much of my slip up. Although I was bound to get an earful of how stupid I was from Alice and Rose.

Even though I want to say that what I did was all Alice's fault, I knew in reality it was all mine. I should have thought before I lashed out at Alice about something I wasn't even suppose to be able to hear.

While we waited for our food, I began to plot my revenge. Alice was going to pay for telling Emmett about my dream. She broke the deal she made herself, there was no way I was going to let her get away with that.

So far I was leaning between two options of attack. There was brutally murdering her entire wardrobe or cutting up her precious credit cards. They both seemed like pretty evil plans, but I was leaning towards the latter, mostly because if I messed with her wardrobe she could just use the credit cards to buy more clothes. Which would be doing her a favor.

"Uh oh." Alice breathed as she watched me from across the table. "Bella's gone eerily quiet."

Just to scare her, I looked up at her through my lashes and smirked slightly. Her eyes widened in fear, and I tried to keep from laughing. She knew exactly what was coming. It wasn't new to them that I was an expert at revenge. I mean, they tease me so much, it's only right for me to fight back.

"Yeah, Alice. I would be scared." Rose laughed from beside her, "That looks like the I'm-going-to-get-revenge-in-the-worst-way-possible face and with Bella, it's always bad, very bad."

"You're going to get it too, Rose." I said calmly, which gave it the more menacing affect. Rose quirked an eyebrow at me, her facial features showing me that she wasn't the least bit intimidated. I wasn't surprised though, Rosalie is a tough woman, nothing ever intimidates her.

Emmett's loud laughter echoed through the small restaurant. "Bella," He laughed, "You can try as hard as you like but you will never look threatening."

"I'm afraid he's right Bella." Edward laughed from beside me. I turned my head in time to see him lean closer to me while smiling crookedly. He rested his elbow on the back of my chair, bringing him only inches away from my face. "You just end up looking extremely adorable." He whispered the last part, locking me in his intense gaze.

I was completely dazzled and because of that I knew I probably looked like a complete idiot. When he leaned away, I felt air rush into my lungs quickly. Funny, I hadn't even realized I had stopped breathing. I suppressed a giggled at the thought of it being dangerous to my health for him to be that close to me.

I turned back to the rest of the table to find everyone staring at me. When I looked at Emmett to find him trying to hold in his laughter, I finally remembered what he said. Lucky for him Edward had distracted me, or else he would have gotten a piece of my mind.

"Well, Emmett, looks can be deceiving." I sighed, "Ask Alice and Rose. They know from experience that my revenge can be very harsh."

"Oh, yeah." Rose laughed, "One time when Alice forced Bella to go shopping because she had 'accidentally' thrown out her clothes - don't ask me how you accidentally throw a whole wardrobe away - Bella chose to tell this old woman that lived a few levels below us that Alice was interested in playing in her annual Bingo match."

"I had to go to that thing every Wednesday for a month!" Alice cried, "It would have been longer if I hadn't decided to just get myself kicked out by yelling 'Bingo' whenever I felt like it, even if I didn't actually have a Bingo."

I smiled and giggled at the memory. The funniest part of that whole month was just how scary she was when she got back from the Bingo match. She was so angry and full of energy because she had to sit still for so long that I was actually afraid of her. I had to resort to locking myself in my apartment in fear that she would physically attack me.

"Perhaps I have underestimated you, Bella." Emmett spoke up, "You and I could make a great team. I specialize in pranks."

"Oh no..." Jasper groaned, roughly dragging his hand over his face.

"If you have any compassion whatsoever, you would not take him up on that offer. Him alone is torture enough." Edward pleaded.

"Oh, I'm not. My evil schemes stay up here." I smiled, lightly tapping my index finger to my temple.

"Well thats real comforting." Alice snorted.

We finally received our food and ate while we had an enjoyable conversation with the boys. It surprised me on how much we actually had in common with them.

Emmett was like their—meaning Jasper and Edward's—own little Alice in a way. Well maybe not little...but you get what I mean. He was energetic and funny, always cracking jokes and making people laugh. His appearance didn't match his personality one bit. On the outside, he was slightly intimidating because he was so tall and muscular. But when you got to know him, that impression changed into a tall, silly teddy bear. You couldn't help but love him.

Jasper was the mellow one of the group. He was more of a listener which I believe was good for Alice since she can talk for hours and hours about anything. What really stuck out about him though was how just by a simple touch or comment he could put you at ease. He seemed to know exactly what to say to lighten the mood.

And then there was Edward. He was quiet too but had a more mysterious vibe about him. He was so kind and chivalrous, it was amazing. I found myself wanting to thank his adoptive mother for raising him so well. You don't often find a guy who will pull your chair out for you.

"Wow!" Jasper laughed, leaning back in his seat casually, "You girls can eat."

"I told you I was hungry!" Alice giggled as the waiter brought out the check.

We had a long argument about who was going to pay. Of course the guys said they would pay, but we all refused. Technically it wasn't an official date and we didn't expect them to pay for all of us, it was way too expensive, especially since we eat more then a normal girl...

Eventually we got our way, and we paid for our half of the check, leaving the boys a little aggravated, which just amused us to no end.


As we made our way out to the parking lot, Rose let out a long, drawn out whistle as she appraised the shiny red jeep that sat a few cars away from Alice's Porsche. (Picture of Emmett's jeep on profile)

"You like?" Emmett laughed.

"Are you kidding?" Rosalie laughed, "She's beautiful. How long have you had her?"

Alice and I giggled at the fact that she called the car a 'her'. Alice and I really never understood her obsession with cars, but we supported her anyways.

"'Bout a year." Emmett replied.

"Very well taken car of." Rose commented while slowly making her way back to the group, her eyes never leaving the jeep.

"Of course." Emmett said, "I've taken care of her, like anything that beautiful should be."

Rose smirked as she looked back at Emmett, hearing the double meaning in his words. I couldn't help the small smile that played on my lips as I watched them smile at each other. It made me happy to know Rose finally found a guy she liked and it made me even happier to know it was Emmett. In my opinion, I couldn't have chosen anyone better. I may have only know him for a few days, but I could already see him for what he really was: a sweet, funny and caring guy. In a way his personality seemed the total opposite of Rose, which is why I believe they seemed to mesh so well. They balance each other out.

"Okay, okay." Alice giggled, "As much as I would love to stand here and admire Emmett's jeep and watch y'all flirt, I have to be at work early tomorrow for the end of our sale!"

"Yeah, I can imagine just how exciting that must be." I replied sarcastically.

"Oh, it is!" Alice replied, bouncing slightly, "We have a lot of new stock coming in which means new designs, which means I get first dibs!" She finished her little rant with a screech while clapping her hands together.

Jasper laughed down at her little vibrating form and placed a calming hand on her shoulder. She instantly stopped bounce and looked up at him with adoring eyes. I shook my head in disbelief. Rosalie and I couldn't even get her to calm down with bribes, but here Jasper just has to places a hand on her shoulder.

"Wow." Rosalie laughed at Jasper. "You make that look easy. Bella and I can't ever seem to calm her down."

Alice growled playfully at Rose then turned back to grin at Jasper innocently.

Just seeing how easily everyone was getting along and how much Alice and Rose seemed to like Jasper and Emmet made me want to jump around with joy. My two favorite people in the world had finally found someone. We were all getting ridiculously lonely from having to isolate ourselves from people, it was about time we found our matches. But was that what they were? If so, would that mean it had to workout well in the end?

Instantly my happy party turned into a pity party. There were still so many things that could go wrong. The whole incident in the restaurant earlier was proof of that. Just seeing how Rose and Alice looked at Emmett and Jasper made me happy, but at the same time, it made me equally scared. If their hearts were broken and they were upset, then I would be too. They were my life, my family, and if they were in pain, so was I.

Not to mention how much I was already falling for Edward. That alone would break me apart. On one side of my chaotic mind I was completely smitten for Edward and happy about it, but on the other, I couldn't help but remind myself that I had only knowing him for a few days.

I hate to say it, seeing as it is total cliché, but it feels as if we've known them longer then that. We somehow fell into a normal type of rhythm with them, as if we had known them our whole lives. That alone was proof enough that this was not some small crush; it was more. Which made it that much more dangerous to my heart when it would inevitably get crushed.

"You're frowning again with that far away look in your eyes." Edward laughed, jumping me out of my daze. I focused my eye to see him standing in front of me, wearing that crooked smile I had already grown attached to.

"Oops." I giggled, my sad thoughts instantly overshadowed by Edward's presence. "I've been doing that a lot lately, haven't I?"

He laughed. "Yeah, you have, but I can't say I mind it. You look rather adorable while you zone out. You show every little emotion you're feeling and I can't deny the fact that I love knowing what your feeling. If only I could know what you were thinking."

I laughed nervously at the thought of him actually being able to read my mind. That would be embarrassing. I've always told Rose and Alice that my mind was a scary place. My thoughts are very random and tend to take crazy turns for the worst.

"I don't think my thoughts would be all that interesting." I replied, digging my hands in my coat pockets while twisting from side to side, swishing the loose sides of my jacket around in a child-like manner.

"Well from the quick change in emotions, I bet it would be. What's got you so worried?" He asked, his tone changing from amusement to concern in a matter of seconds.

"The usual." I sighed, "Work, family, things that could go wrong. Life is just so fragile, you know? One small change and it could change everything."

"I know exactly what you mean." He replied, "I worry about the same thing. But really, I decide to let life take me where it wants to. Not let the fear of what could happen keep me from being happy right where I am, right now."

I let out a long breath in relief as if his words had set me free. In a way they really did. His words made complete sense to me and I felt as if something inside me change. Like I now had chosen a certain action to take in my life. Edward is a very smart man, I concluded.

A huge smile broke across my face. It had to be one of the brightest smile I had ever worn. "You're totally right."


"Hey!" Emmett's voice boomed through the tiny lobby of our apartment complex, causing Alice, Rose and I to jump in surprise, "Fancy meetin' you here!"

Laughing, we all turned to see Jasper, Emmett and Edward walking towards us. It had only been fifteen minutes since we left the restaurant in separate cars to go to the exact same place.

"How did you get here before us? We left before you." Jasper laughed.

"Alice." Rose and I sighed at the same time, turning our heads to the small pixie smiling impishly.

"So I like to drive fast." Alice stated, shrugging her shoulders.

"I drove at a normal speed, didn't want to hurt Camila." Emmett said.

"What?" Rosalie nearly shouted, "Whose Camila!?"

I stared wide eyed at Emmett, contemplating violence if he meant what I thought he meant. I normally wasn't a violent person, but I found myself forming a plan for a physical attack.

"That foxy woman in red outside." Emmett stated, point a thumb over his shoulder towards the front door of the lobby.

Rosalie huffed, shaking her head at Emmett. I swear if it were possible, steam would have been coming from her ears. Alice and I shared a look that said we were going to jump Emmett for doing that to Rose. Even though they weren't technically dating, it was still very low.

"Uh, Emmett." Edward said quietly, eying a furious Rosalie. "Maybe you should clarify who Camila is."

Emmett looked at Edward as if he had no clue what he was talking about. He followed Edward's gaze to Rose and instantly shrunk back in fear and shock.

"Oh, he doesn't have to clarify anything." Rose spat.

"Wait, wait! What?" Emmett asked confusedly, holding up his hands in a defensive manner. "What did I do?"

"Rose, chill." Jasper said, placing a hand on her shoulder. She sighed heavily, her stiff posture relaxing slightly. "He's talking about his jeep."

"Yeah! What else did you all think I was talking about?" Emmett asked innocently, his eyebrows crunching and his lips turning to a frown.

I instantly felt bad for jumping to conclusions. Poor innocent, adorable Emmett... He had no clue what we even thought he was saying or how much danger he was in of being jumped by Alice and I.

"They thought you were talking about an actual woman, you idiot." Edward replied, shaking his head and rolling his eyes.

"Aw, Rosie, no. I was talking about my jeep." Emmet said, making up the distance between them to pull Rose into his arms. Surprisingly, she didn't resist. She let out a sigh of relief and let him pull her into a hug.

"I only got eyes for you, baby." Emmett whispered in her ear, causing her to giggle and wrap her arms around his neck.

"Blah." Alice gagged, pointing a finger at her mouth and making gaging noises.

"Okay, okay." Jasper laughed, grabbing her hand. "Let's go, you did say you had to get up early."

"Oh!" Alice gasped, "That's right! Thanks for reminding me, Jazzy." And with that she smiled and began to pull him towards the elevators.

"After you, madam." Edward said, ushering me forward with his arms.

"Why, thank you, kind sir." I replied, holding my head high while making my way to the elevator.

When we made it to the twenty-fourth floor, the tension in the air heightened. I could tell that none of us wanted this night to end. It had been fun and we had a lot of time to get to know each other, but I knew it was bound to end.

"Phone?" Edward asked, holding out his hand while smiling crookedly down at me.

I smiled in return and dug my phone out of my pocket. After he had entered his number he handed it back but captured my hand in his. He slowly brought my hand up to his mouth, never breaking eye contact with me, and gently placed a kiss the back of my hand. I felt my cheeks grow warmer under his intense gaze.

"Goodnight, Bella." He said quietly, releasing my hand and walking backwards out of the elevator.

"Goodnight." I breathed, a little dazed by our little interaction.

Once the doors shut behind the guys, we all went silent as we became lost in our own thoughts. It wasn't until we got to Rose's apartment that we finally escaped from our dazed state. That's when I remembered something...

"What? I don't get yelled at for my little slip up at the restaurant?" I asked, completely surprised they hadn't started their rant about how dumb or irresponsible I was.

"What?" Rose asked confusedly, "Oh! Uh, nah. They didn't really think anything of it."

"Am I dreaming here? Y'all are actually letting me off the hook?"

They both just shrugged casually, dropping their purses on the kitchen table.

"So..." I sighed, doing the same to mine. "No punishment?"

I knew I was pushing it, but I was just so confused. It wasn't like Alice and Rose to look past my wrong doing. It was refreshing yet very weird. It just didn't feel right. Maybe the guys are a very good influence on them...

The next thing I know, something hard was slapped against the top of my arm. I gasped loudly, turning slightly to see Alice holding a rolled up magazine in the air.

"Ow!" I shouted while rubbing my arm, trying to relieve the stabbing pain. I frowned down at my arm, knowing there would be a bruise there for a while. That was one good thing about healing quickly: bruises only last for about an hour or so, depending on how much force was behind the hit."What was that for!"

"You obviously wanted to be punished." She stated, shrugging her shoulders.

I laughed. "No. I did not want to be punished, I was just surprised y'all let me get away with it. Jeez, Alice, I'm not a puppy."

"Doesn't mean we can't punish you like a puppy." She laughed, shrugging slightly.

"No, you--" I started to say, but was cut off by Alice who proceeded to wail on me with the rolled up magazine.

"Bad, Bella, bad!" She teased, stepping closer while still whacking me.

"Alice!" I laughed, quickly grabbing my purse and running towards the front door.

I heard her giggling a few paces behind me, still chasing after me, as I ran towards the front door. I laughed too, knowing there was no way she would be able to keep up with her short legs.

"Bel-la!" She groaned, annoyed that I had gain quite a bit of distance once we made it to the main hallway.

I quickly threw the door open to my apartment and shut it behind me, officially shutting out the abusive little pixie. With my back pressed up against the door, I felt and heard her little fists making contact with the door as she banged on it repeatedly.

"Fine!" She huffed, halting her pounding. "Change into your pajamas and meet us on the roof!"

"Sure, sure." I laughed, lazily pushing myself off the door.

"Rose! Grab the junk food and meet us on the roof!" I heard Alice shriek as I made my way to my bedroom.


EPOV

I grinned what had to be one of the dorkiest looking smiles that had ever graced my face as I watched the elevator doors close, separating me from the beautiful woman that had already manage to capture my heart. Tonight was amazing, to put it simply. Yeah, she didn't talk through half of it but it didn't make it any less amazing. Just her presence made me happy. It was ridiculous to have these feelings for her already but I did. And at this moment, I couldn't decide if I liked it or not. It was just so new to me.

And as we headed down the hall to our apartment I couldn't bring myself to think about all the things that could go wrong. At this point, I wouldn't even care if I fell off a seven story building- that being if I couldn't fly- just as long as I got to see her face again.

Once we were all sitting in the living room of our apartment, I peered over to look at Jasper and Emmett. They both seemed to be off in their own world, just staring off into space wearing the same goofy grin as me. Well at least I wont crash and burn alone...

"We are either the luckiest men alive or the unluckiest." I sighed heavily, letting my head fall back to rest on the back of the couch.

After a few moments with no response, I looked over to see neither of them had moved an inch.

"Uh, guys?" I asked, waving my arms around the air to get their attention.

"Oh." Emmett looked up at me slowly, his facial features blanks. "I'm sorry, what was that?"

"I said..." I sighed, shaking my head in disbelief. "We are either the luckiest men alive or the unluckiest."

"Why would we be unlucky?" Jasper asked quickly, and I couldn't help but notice how slightly defensive it sounded.

"Oh, I don't know. Maybe the fact that we have wings? Or that we don't know if we are human? Or maybe that we don't have any memory whatsoever before the age of fourteen? I definitely don't want to be the ones to tell them, if we decide to."

"We aren't telling them." Emmett said calmly, shaking his head quickly.

"You plan on keeping this a secret forever? Even if Rose wants to get married and move in together or have kids? What will be your excuse be other then, 'I can't have kids Rose, I'm not completely sure they will turn out 100% human.'"

Emmett frowned and glared at me but I could tell he had nothing to say. I wasn't really surprised he was mad at me; I was raining on their party, but it had to be said. To be quite honest, I didn't want to mess this up. We had to decide what we were going to do before we stepped too far.

"I don't know." Jasper groaned, "This sucks....but I love it."

We all laughed at this, mostly because it was oddly true. The situation sucked but I honestly didn't mind, as long as Bella was there, I would suffer anything.

"Well, it's a little too late to go back now." Emmett sighed.

"You're right."

"But does that mean eventually we have to tell them? I mean if -" Emmett didn't continue because their was a very loud, high pitched shriek that came from above us.

We all turned to each other, silently asking if the other heard it too, then we all ran for the balcony. Emmett rammed into me on the way, almost sending me crashing straight into the sliding glass door.

"Shh!" I hissed, turning around to an anxious looking Emmett.

I gently slid the door open, careful not to make any noise, and crept out onto the balcony with Emmett and Jasper right behind me. As soon as we were all there, we heard talking and giggles from above us. When I looked up, the sight almost cause my heart to stop.

There hanging over edge of the top of the building were three pairs of legs. I watched in horror as their legs casually rocked back and forth. The first thought that crossed my mind was of Bella's clumsiness. Did she have a death wish? I mean seriously, someone that clumsy shouldn't be allowed anywhere near the edge of a building, even if it had a six foot high railing.

"Wow, they weren't kidding when they said they liked heights." Jasper breathed quietly to himself.

"What the hell do they think they are doing!?" Emmett hissed under his breath. I could tell he, also, was feeling a little uneasy about the situation. We were all already so protective of the three girls. I would say it was natural to want to protect and preserve something that makes you happy, something that is so precious. And that was exactly what the three girls were to us.

As much as I wanted to just scream for them to get off the ledge, I knew it was a bad idea. Also, I didn't think it was our place to ask them to get off the ledge. We weren't their parents - thank God for that - and we weren't their boyfriends... yet.

So, what's a man to do in such a situation?


"Why can't they just go to sleep!" Emmett groaned, trying to keep his eyes open as he laid flat on his back on the concrete floor of the balcony, exactly four hour later.

I turned my head to the left to see Jasper was already snoring lightly, having already dosed off. Yep, we were laying on the ground, staring up at the girls, waiting for them to get off the ledge. We figured the only way to keep a healthy conscious was to sit and make sure they didn't accidentally fall off the edge. And let me tell you, it was not exciting at all. One, we had to be as quiet as possible as to not let them find out we were watching. And two, the girl's conversations either consisted of how hot some actor was or when they were going on their next shopping trip.

It was now exactly one in the morning now, and they were still just as rowdy as four hours ago. These girls had a lot of energy, I had to admit. I had expected it from Alice, but Bella? I would have assumed she would have tuckered out sometime soon. Hell, I was on the verge of passing out and I was just lying here lazily watching their little feet sway back and forth. I didn't even want to think about the mess I was going to be tomorrow at work.

I listened intently as the giggles died down quite a bit. A second later, I heard the words I was so desperately wanting to hear for the past four hours. They all agreed to go to sleep, and I almost felt like jumping to my feet and starting a victory dance when I saw all three pairs of legs disappear from the ledge.

"Finally!" Emmett huffed, jumping up to his feet instantly. I laughed as I saw him sway slightly from the head rush.

I got off the floor myself and was about to head inside, until I realized Jasper was still knocked out on the floor. I turned back around to wake him, but when I saw his lazy position and the way his mouth was hung open, I got a very cruel idea. I turned to Emmett to tell him my plan, but as soon as I did, he nodded his head, somehow already knowing what I was going to say.

Nodding to him in a silent agreement, we both quietly crept over to Jasper, each of us standing over him on either side. I tried to contain my laughter as I started down at him, knowing that this was going to almost give him a heart attack. Unfortunately for him, I was tired and slightly grumpy, causing me not to care if he got angry and kind of anticipating the laugh I was going to get from his reaction.

I held up five finger towards Emmett, starting my countdown. Once I got to one, we both let out the loudest scream we could conjure up. I jumped slightly as the sound echoed off the walls of the apartment. We had definitely woken some people up.

Once the sound hit Jasper's ears, his eye's snapped open and he shot up to his feet in a matter of seconds. I couldn't even begin to wonder what kind of a scare it caused him since even I had jumped at the loud sound.

"What!? What happened!?" He sputtered.

Emmett's face washed of all emotions as he stared blankly past both of us towards the edge of the balcony."Ahhhh!" He bellowed, running over the ledge and peering over. "Jasper! Alice fell off the ledge!"

Jasper looked over to me, horror and fear written all over his face. I tried my best to look scared and flustered as I frantically looked from the balcony and back to him. Once he saw my horrified expression, he jumped onto a chair that sat by a small table we had off to the side and from there he jumped onto the ledge of the balcony.

"Alice!" He screamed over the edge frantically, before he crouched to leap over the side. Luckily Emmett was smart enough no to let him. He grabbed onto his arm and the back of his t-shirt and dragged him back into the middle of the balcony, while he kicked and fought to get out of his grasp.

"What the hell Emmett!" He yelled.

Emmett then started to burst into laughter, me not too far behind. Jasper stopped fighting against Emmett's hold and began to stare at us confusedly. After a few moments, he finally realized what had happened, and his features turned deadly. He was beyond pissed.

Before Emmett could react, Jasper had ripped his arm from his grasp and punched him square in the ribs. As Emmett groaned and fell to the floor, I took a few steps back, positioning myself so that I wasn't in Jasper's line of view. Call me a coward, but I definitely didn't want any broken bones. It would heal quickly, but it would still hurt and be sore tomorrow for work.

"Shit!" Emmett hissed, clutching his ribs while still on his knees. "I think you broke a rib!"

"Oh, stop crying." Jasper hissed, glaring down at him. "It will heal by tomorrow."

"Why do I get punched and not Eddie over there!" Emmett asked, pulling himself up from the ground while glaring at me. "It was as much his idea as mine!"

Jasper instantly turned around to glare, taking one step closer to me. I took a step back in responds, holding my hands up in surrender. "Hey, if we want to get technical here, it was kind of his fault. He's a bad influence. I got the idea from his crazy pranks."

"What!" Emmett screeched in a very high pitched voice, almost causing me to laugh if it wasn't for the murderous glare Jasper was still dealing me."What kind of excuse is that?"

"A pretty good one, I have to say." Jasper laughed, while I nodded in agreement, smiling smugly at Emmett.

"You suck, Jasper." Emmett pouted, while walking stiffly towards the sliding glass door, still clutching his broken rib. "Always teaming up on me." I heard him mumble to himself as he shook his head in despair.

Once I made it to my room, I quickly threw off my shirt and jeans and climbed into bed, not having enough energy to take a shower. It could wait till morning. As I fought with the covers of my unmade bed, I suddenly became overwhelmed with the delicious thought of having Bella in my arms as I slept.

I instantly stopped my fussing of the covers at that thought. Wow, I was officially hitting the stalker stage. And now I was seriously contemplating actually warning Bella to stay away from me. She would be scared of me if this kept going down that path. Hell, I was scaring myself.

I seriously needed to work on controlling the stalkerish vibe I was starting to give off. Though it might be expected, seeing as I have no experience with women or relationships and I'm a little lonely, it still wasn't a very good excuse.

All I needed to do was take things slow, be careful about what I say around Bella and try my best to not scare her away. That would definitely be the outcome if I let her see the intense feelings I was already having for her. And quite frankly, I don't think I could handle her pulling away from me. She was like my sun; she made my life brighter. And there was no way I was going to let her go.
