I hope that this chapter isn't disappointing.

Disclaimer: I don't own Twilight :(

THANKYOU SO MUCH MY REVIEWERS FOR THE SUGGESTIONS YOU'RE ALL AMAZING.

Part of this chapter was inspired for one of my readers Aliya Regatti who suggested that I added in the Hitler Mike into this story xD I thought it was a great idea so look out for it :)

-I've also taken other suggestions into account and I'm dying to write them in! :) Just have to give me time ;) and please any other suggestions will be taken in and if I like them enough I'll add them in.

Chapter 8

Edward and I went back up to the apartment to wait for the others. I knew that no one would be back for a good hour and I revelled in the fact that we would be alone without any disturbances. Just Edward and I and no-one else, nothing sounded better. If Mike showed up during this hour I was personally going to make him regret it.

"Looking forward to the basketball match?" Edward asked.

"Oh, yes-heaps. I can't wait to make a fool out of myself in front of everyone. Again." I muttered, trying to sound angry, but who could really be angry sitting next to a God?

Edward chuckled at me and tilted my chin up, searching my eyes. I could feel his soft breath tickle gently against my cheek causing me to blush profoundly. The closeness of Edward was driving me crazy with lust, desire, and yearning. Clearly they all meant the same thing, proving that I only had one thought-Edward. I couldn't think about anything, my head was empty of thoughts. The only thing that I remember thinking about coherently was willing his lips to mine. Yet they never did.

"Don't worry; I'll be there to help you if you trip." He assured me, his voice sounding rough. He started bringing his head down to mine; this seemed like I was finally going to be able to feel the tenderness and warmth of his lips. My whole body trembled with the anticipation of willing myself to him, I wanted him-desperately.

The next moment the door slammed open, our heads snapped up to the person who had interrupted us. It appeared that I might never get this kiss ,and I began to feel depressed. Stood in the doorway in all of her glory was Rosalie.

"Kitchen. Now." She commanded. I shot up off of the sofa like it had just burned my butt. She had no reason to be mad if it was about the proximity of Edward and me. She was the one who got with Emmett on her date with Edward, not the other way round.

I stood in the kitchen feeling weak and pathetic. Why did I always let people take control over me and my life? Well if she was going to tell me to stay away from Edward-I wouldn't.

She cleared her throat.

"If this is about Edwar-" but she cut me off before I could say anything else.

"Look. Bella. I'm sorry."

"Oh! Erm-well-me too." It takes a lot of both Rosalie and I to apologise to each other. We're both pretty stubborn when it comes down to faults and things like that. She came over and hugged me and I did the same. She was like a sister to me and meant a lot in my life.

"I just…had a connection to Emmett." She blushed deeply.

"How long for?" I raised my eyebrows.

"Ever since high school." She smiled broadly "I just never thought that he had wanted me too."

"Who didn't want you?" I shook my head mockingly at her for not going for it sooner.

She just grinned at me; I loved the glow about her and the bliss that radiated from her. I just wished that I could be as happy. Maybe I could.

"Anyway-I saw the way that Edward looks at you. He can't keep his eyes off of you Bells, I'm not stupid. I see the way that he looks at you-the way I had not yet two days ago wanted him to look at me-but I want Emmett now; he's so amazing and selfless. Perfect for a girl like me."

I nodded and hugged her again. With a last smile we both came out of the kitchen where everyone had now accumulated, even Alice and Jasper had arrived. There goes my hour with Edward I thought bitterly.

We all got changed for the basketball game, Edward and Emmett ran home to change and joined us back at the apartment. We had twenty minutes to spare and we all just sat around chatting.

"No, I've never had a bad picture of myself." Alice confessed. Rosalie and I snorted at her-we knew she did. Edward and Emmett looked at each other chuckling and Jasper stared at her with disbelief.

"You're not fooling anyone Alice." Rosalie snickered. "We've all seen it."

Alice pouted and Jasper squeezed her tightly and kissed the top of her head. Rosalie got up to go over to the book shelf where we had kept all of our picture albums, year books and other life time records. She brought back with her one of our high school year books. Alice looked at her in shock.

"I thought that we burnt that one." She growled.

"Erm-yeah. We agreed to keeping at least one from each year. You know, for memories sake." I admitted, I had hoped that no one would bring it back up. I wanted to keep that year's year book because I can openly admit that I nearly looked better than Alice did in one photo. Nearly-even when Alice is sneezing she is more attractive. Yes that's right; Alice sneezed during the time that the photo was taken-well that's all we can assume what she was doing. Otherwise there was no other way to describe that face.

Alice bowed her head with shame as everyone saw that she had in fact at least one bad picture out there. And what was worse-everyone from our school had a copy. Believe it or not-that was one of Alice's biggest shames of her life.

"At least you're not the worst looking kid here." Jasper tried comforting her "I mean…look at that girl with the gruesome acne." He shuddered "Talk about pizza face-what kind of toping is that?! Everything? It sure looks like it."

"Yeah and look at that boy with the brace, it looks more like someone's putting up a fence around his face." Emmett chuckled.

"That's such a terrible hair cut, were they trying to make their head look any longer-I mean he already had a horse face." Rosalie commented.

I saw a picture and broke out in laughter. "Yes! But none of them compare to THIS!" I pointed at a picture of Mike that was further down the page.

"What the hell. He looks like Hitler. No wonder he's evil." Edward stated. Everyone creased up with laughter.

The next minute someone was knocking at the door. Alice stood up to answer it; Mike came in wearing his basketball gear-it looked like the stuff he used to wear at high school. This was only because they were all too small for him now, his shorts were more like hot pants and his top was hugging him tightly I had to restrain myself from gagging.

As soon as everyone saw him they began another round of laughter; not only by his appearance in the year book but now also by his appearance in front of us too.

"Let's get going!" Alice squealed hyper.

I was actually just as eager as everyone else; I'd not played basketball in such a long time. This was going to be interesting.

For the story behind the year books photos I was inspired by school.needs to go's story 'dirty little secrets' and my one shot 'I'd do anything to impress you' if you've not read them already I suggest you do; people seem to like them :)

Please read.So like I was planning on not playing out the game just little things that happen? Unless you guys would like to read about the game? Therefore if you'd all like to read about the game then if someone would volunteer to help me write it? I'm pretty rubbish at writing about playing games :)
