What the hell just happened?

One minute Edward is amazed about what I can bench the next he's rushing out of the room because I dropped my clipboard. I shake my head and stand up.

Who knows what's gotten into him. Maybe I shouldn't have done the work outs with him today. What if I hurt his feelings that it seemed like I was able to do everything so easily while he was obviously struggling with it.

I slap my palm to my forehead. Duh Swan that's got to be it! You made a fool out of him.

Fuck. He's such a sweet guy. I bet no one bothers to look past his outer appearance.

Sure, I'm not really one to talk. I'd probably never give him the time of day either but today was fun talking with him. I've never actually met a game tester before. That's pretty cool. I bet Emmett and Jasper would lose their shit if they found out Edward gets to test the games before they actually come out.

Damn boys are always playing either their Xbox or PS3. They seriously bought two consoles and hooked them up at our place so they can play. Let's just say they pay part of our electricity bill as well.

I walk back into my office and throw my clipboard down on my desk, I pass it and go to the window and look out. Another gloomy day but whatever.

"Hey sweet stuff." I hear. Fucking Black. I turn and cross my arms across my chest.

"What do you want Black?" I sneer at him.

"Aw, don't be like that." he stands up and walks over to me, placing one hand above my head on the window and leaning into me. "Give me a chance. We could be great together." he coos.

I can't help the scoff that escapes. I roll my eyes, "Never gonna happen. I know about all your conquests around the gym." I whisper yell at him. I shove his arm out of my way and sit at my desk.

"It's best you leave, Black. I've got a client coming in soon so I can go over his meal plan." he laughs. Laughs! "You mean that new guy? Chubby Cullen?" he laughs even louder.

Seriously?

"Are you fucking with me right now Jacob? I don't have time for your bullshit. Just get out of my office." I yell at him. He may be over six feet but that doesn't stop me from getting into his face. He smirks at me; "Whatever Bella." he turns to leave and I turn to watch him get the hell out of my office when my eyes land on my doorway.

Edward.

His eyebrows are drawn together and he's looking down. I see a single tear fall down his cheek. My heart breaks. He looks up at me then turns to rush away.

He heard.

Fucking Black!

"OH! You fucking asshole! Look at what the fuck you did!" yelling at Jacob and shoving him out of the way slamming him into the wall. I chase after Edward.

"Edward!" I scream when I finally make it to the garage. I can't see him but then I see the backlights of a car go on. Found him. I run up to the car, he's got a damn Vanquish?

Holy shit, Rose is going to lose it when she finds out. I knock on the window and I notice I startled him.

I smile and motion for him to roll the window down. He does but stays quiet.

"Hey." I say.

He doesn't say anything back.

My smile fades. He's hurt.

"Don't worry about that jackass ok?" trying to look at him he keeps turning away. "Edward, seriously don't worry about what he said. He's a jerk and he knows it." sighing, "You forgot your meal plan. I try to give it to him through the window. He takes it but puts it down not even wanting to look at it.

"Hey." I say again this time reaching into the car and putting my hand on his shoulder. He flinched a bit. I can't believe how much Jacobs's words hurt him. "How about you meet me at the market tomorrow afternoon? I'll help you pick out the stuff you need to make those meals?" I try to coax him to speak. He just shakes his head.

I don't understand. He surely doesn't have those things on the list that he would need.

"Why not? Do you not want to be seen with me?"

My eyes drop to the ground. It's happening all over again.

"No!" he almost yells at me causing me to startle and look up. He's staring straight into my eyes, "I just don't want to embarrass you by being seen with me." he finally confesses.

Oh. I smile. "Edward, I don't care what people say. They've said enough things to hurt me in my past. Words don't hold the same affect to me as they once did. I'll see you tomorrow at four! Don't keep me waiting!" I turn and rush back into the gym.

Jacob Black has signed his death warrant.

I'm Bella Swan and I'm about to kill a bitch!


A/N: So we're slowly going to find out about Bella's past =) I've got a question for you guys. I could do a small time jump or give you another chapter of their trip to the store. Depending on the votes I'll do which ever. If there's enough response on the chapter of their trip to the store I'll just post that and then do the small time jump =) Let me know!

Until Next Time!
