My jaw dropped and blushed furiously before managing to stutter out "W-What do y-y-you mean?? T-there's n-n-nothing going o-n!" they stared at me and I knew straight away that they had seen through my most unconvincing argument. They raised there eyebrows at me but I just stared back at them.
"If nothings going on why are you blushing?" Alice inquired.
"I am NOT blushing!" as soon as I said this I blushed even more. Rosalie and Alice just burst into a fit of giggles.
"You like Edward! You might as well admit it!" Rose said as she gasped for breath.
"Fine, fine, fine I like him alright? But I've only known him for 5 hours! What kind of person am I if I like a guy after 5 hours!?"
"You're a girl who has fallen for an amazing guy Bella, lighten up a bit!" Rose smiled as she replied to me. I couldn't help but smile back.
"I just don't know he seems so out of my league I mean he's gorgeous! And I'm just a same old plain Jane, there's nothing that could ever draw him to me but I suppose a girl can dream." I murmured.
"You have no idea how wrong you are Bella, you're beautiful and you stood up for us all today at lunch I mean seriously you are amazing. Of course he's going to be attracted to you, he already is you can tell from the way he looks at you." Alice responded.
"Thanks girls, you're the best!" We all grinned at each other. "So…who's up for a little hunting around?" I smiled before I ran for my bedroom door and began exploring rooms around the floor. Alice managed to find my stood she picked up an envelope and gasped.
"Bella, how much money do you actually have!?" I looked at her puzzled when she began counting out the money in the envelope.
"$100, $200…$900…$2000…$5000! There's $5000 in this envelope! I've never seen that much in my entire life!" My jaw dropped. "Oh there's a note it says 'I hope this is enough Isabella it's all the spare change I could find from around the house. Cassie' You really are rich!"
"$5000, they left my $5000 in my study for groceries!? Are they insane!? That's just asking to be mugged!" I stared at the money in her hand.
"Bella, you must be used to seeing this amount of money though, with your Dad being rich and all…"
"Nah, that's where you're wrong, when I lived in phoenix with my Mum we where far from rich but we were happy and I liked it like that but ever since I moved here to Forks everything's changed." As I continued to explain we moved back into my room and sat on my small bed. "All of a sudden my Dad's rich and married after all the times he wrote to me while I was in Phoenix not once did he ever tell me about him inheriting my granddad's business and gaining one hell of a lot of cash, so this is a major shocker almost as much as the fact that he's married."
"What do you mean by that? You must have gone to the wedding?" Rose asked.
"Nope, not at all, I didn't even know he'd met anyone new until I got here; in fact we where just around the corner when he started babbling on about his new wife called Cassie but I just kind of zoned out. Out of all the letters he sent he never even mentioned her either and now they've both gone on holiday together for a month."
"A month! What are you going to do on your own for a month!?" Alice stared at me in horror.
"I really don't know Alice; this house is so big it kind of creeps me out." I decided I might as well admit it. I actually hate this house, why does it have to be so big? I'd be quite happy with just a bedroom to myself and maybe a bathroom but this place is almost like a horror movie waiting to happen.
"I've got an idea!" Alice was bouncing up and down on the spot. Rose and I glanced at each other before looking at Alice curiously. "How about Rose, the guys and me all stay round at your house while your Dad and Step Mom are away that way we can all keep you company! I can just see that it will work out perfectly. Oh! I've got so many plans that I can tell are going to work out!"
"Alice that's presuming she actually wants us to stay over…" Rose said jokingly. Alice spun around to face me and pleading at me with her eyes.
"Of course I'd want you over!" I yelled excitedly! I couldn't believe it, I'd only just met these girls and they where going to stay over at my house for an entire month, and they where going to bring the guys along! I just knew I'd made some true friends straight away when I met them but who would have thought that they'd like me as much as I like them. I have to say I must be the luckiest girl in the world at this minute! "You guys need to get your stuff though!"
"Oh yeah…I'd forgotten about that, will you be alright for a while if we run and get it?" Rose asked
"Of course! Hang on I drove, I can drive you round if you like."
"Nah it's alright it's not far it's just a few streets away and as seen as we live with the guys anyway we can drag them straight around in there car!" I grinned as Alice said this then realised that they all lived together.
"You all live together?" I asked clear confused.
"Oh I forgot you didn't know but yeah we do. Neither mine or Rose's parents agreed with our choice of boyfriends they wanted us to find rich boys and become rich you see they wanted all the money they could have, but we both kicked off and said we wouldn't leave them. So Carlisle and Esme were both kind enough to take us in and we've been living there for just over a year now."
"Wow, they're so kind are Carlisle and Esme but your parents, how could they do that!?"
"It's just one of those things but don't worry about it. Anyways we better get going otherwise we'll never be able to get our stuff!" Rose laughed as she finished speaking and we headed downstairs and once we'd found the front door they waved bye and headed home but as they reached the end of the drive I yelled.
"Hey! Just walk straight in when you get back, there's no guarantee that I'll be able to find the door again!" I grinned at them and they laughed, they nodded to show they'd heard before I closed the door and found my way back to my room.
I sat down on my windowsill and looked out and watched as the light drizzle turned into a thunderous pour down. I should have known it wouldn't have stayed like that for long. But watching the rain suddenly gave me an urge to sing, and I had no idea why but before I could stop my self I had already began singing some unknown lyrics.
Sitting on a park bench
I'm watching the rain
Falling on the ground
I'm soaking wet
But I don't care
Children jump into puddles
Zipped up inside bright anoraks
Wearing glossy shiny Wellingtons
Red and yellow and blue
People pass me by
I see them through the misty haze
Streetlights are glowing
And traffic buzzes somewhere near
I'm sitting across my windowsill
Watching the raindrops
Sliding down the window
Breath steams up the glass
But I don't care
Children jump into puddles
Zipped up inside bright anoraks
Wearing glossy shiny Wellingtons
Red and yellow and blue
Watching the raindrops
Sliding down the window
Makes me wish I was outside
Soaking up the water…
As I finished singing I heard a voice from the doorway say "And you say you've never written a song before, I'd say that you're pretty good at it."
A/N: Bella sings! I would like to thank my wonderful friend Angus for these lyrics! Please don't use them for if you do it will make me very upset and Angus too! Please R&R!
