Treacherous

I can't decide if it's a choice
Getting swept away
I hear the sound of my own voice
Asking you to stay

This slope is treacherous...This path is reckless
This slope is treacherous
But I like it.

Bella's pov:


"Relax Bella...You look fine !"

I stood there staring at the mirror,lightly mumbling to myself."It's just school , you've done this a hundred times Already...You WILL be fine"

I snorted.

Who was I kidding? Ugh !Maybe I should just stay back and-

A loud knock interrupted my inner musing.

"Isabella ! We are going to be late…!" I signed as Rachel screeched.

"I'm coming!" I quickly glanced back at the mirror,to make sure that I hadn't forgotten to put something important on…like my pants before leaving to take the stairs two at a time.

Just as I turned to shut the door I stared back at my horrified reflection as I took in the color of my top.

Shit ! Royal blue! Edward's favorite color.

I can't go in this! I mean What if It gives him the wrong impression !? Or what if it looks like I'm trying too hard ?

No..no..no...

I ran back into the closet to search for something Violet instead..

Alex's favorite color...I think.

Just as I shuffled through the top drawer, Rachel and Daniel barged in, taking merely seconds to link one of their arms into each of mine before literally dragging me to the car.

I tried my best to struggle free. "Wait...wait..wait! I don't want to wear blue today !"
Daniel glanced down at my attire and snorted. "Since when did you start caring about the way you looked Izzy?"

Alex glanced at me through the rare-view mirror laughing while I glared straight ahead.

"You look gorgeous babe." He winked. "Besides its not like you have anybody but me to impress." I quickly looked away uncomfortable with his gaze as he ran his eyes over me.

For some reason I was never able to truly give myself to him,at least not in the way he wanted me too.A few kisses here and there,under the stars,in the shadows..But it never really went beyond that.I never ever wanted it to.

Alex thought I was waiting for marriage in all honestly and I let honestly I didn't know what I was waiting for anymore.

Lost in my thoughts I didn't notice that the car had pulled to a stop until its occupants stepped out...I sighed.

Here we go again.

I stepped out and kept my eyes firmly planted on the ground, and away from the group of boys leering at us.I ignored them not bothering to grace them with a look until one of them wolf-whistled.

Without warning I heard an unmistakably,low threatening growl between all the student body commotion.

Alex?

I Glanced up at Him wanting to give him a small smile to show my same scenario had happened numerous times before,but he's never really stood up for me this way...until now.

I watched as he flicked on his ray-bran shades and flash a smile at the group of cheerleaders huddled across at the lot.

Dissapointment burned.

But If it wasn't Alex...

Edward…?

I turned towards my right to find him intently glowering at the group. Another growl threatening to erupt as he stepped forward.

I didn't think, I just walked forward and wraped my hand comfortingly around his before stroking his plam.

Just as I did a hundred times before.

"Bella?" His face expressed both his elation and confusion at my gesture.

What was I doing ?

Suddenly hyper aware of the crowned,I took a quick step back and whispered.

"Edward..I-Im sorry that was.. I didn't mean to…", the rest of my apology got drowned by the bell just as the corridor swarmed with anxious students heading to their classes,giving me a clear shot at escaping from there.

Saved by the bell.

Just as I turned the corner I watched as Alice dropped her scarf before stepping into her class.

I picked it up My eyes narrowed suspiciously at the material before stuffing it into my bag and walking on.

How never does anything by accident.I guess Ill just ask her while returning it to her at lunch...

First class. Biology.

I tensed up as I reached room 25 and spotted the last empty chair, right beside Edward Cullen.

I scrolled.Ironic wasn't it ? As if history was determined to repeat itself.

I stepped back about to turn around and make a run for it .But ,our professor had already spotted me by the door and was now impatiently gesturing at me to take take a seat.

Dammit !

I bit back a growl.

Its fine 're concentrate on class and don't give that lying heart-breaker a minute of your time and you'll-

"Hey" Edward casually whispered between my rant.

"My name is Edward Cullen," he continued. "I didn't have a chance to introduce myself last week. You must be Bella Swan."

I glared back at him making sure a little venom swept into my voice As I slid in.

"Nice try."

I stared down at my dog-eared literature text book while he sighed.

"Bella,about what happened today morning I-... Bella please! Atleast look at me !"

I pursed my lips together adamant to do just the opposite.

"Love please….."

I turned to face him ready to give him a piece of my mind."Listen here Edward,I don't wan-"

"Miss Swan!" Both mine and Edward's eyes snapped back to Mr. Cornor.

Shit..

"Do you mind?"

He glared at me as I quickly flipped open my book embaressed."Sorry sir."

"And you too, .Keep your eyes to your text and make sure you refrain from further conversation with Miss Swan."

If I were human,I would bet my cheeks would have turned cherry red in embarrassment. I turned away from his side..not wanting to cause anymore trouble and began to draw tiny loops on the edges of my blank page for the rest of the class.I knew this topic by heart.

On my periphery, I caught a neatly folded note on the edge of my table.

Frowning I opened it.

Bored?

I rolled my eyes not looking at him as I crumbled the paper and went my doodling as he slipped me another one.

Well I am….bored, confused and hurt=/

I frowned.

Since when did Edward start using emoticons like the rest of us ?

I picked my pencil scribbling down untidily under Edward's elegant script.

We're not supposed to be talking….

He instantly grabbed out the paper from my hand before skillfully scrawling down another neat reply.

He didn't say anything about writing….

I glanced up and shook my head disapprovally.

Well that doesn't matter….considering the fact that I have nothing to say…

I slid the paper back to him and peaked over his shoulder as he calligraphed his reply..

You don't really have to say anything if you don't want too...But you could write it all down instead love...Write to me.

Write to me ? This man took cheesy to the next level.I shook my does he always making everything sound so…so romantic ?

I watched as he scrawled something else beneath it..

And I'm sorry,about that time in the café….You know when I ran.I know its not really a legimate for what it's worth.I truly am sorry.

Pursing my lips I turned away...

I had Already forgiven him for that stunt but I didnt want him to know I had let things go so some reason,some part of me still resented his presence.I might have forgiven hi, for leaving the cafe but what about the first time he left ? What about that summer ?

"Bella please."

I felt my anger those feels I had bottled for years seeped out of the cracks, clocking my vision in red.

My fingers trembled as I picked up the pen to again

What Edward? What do you want to me write? How I barely took a breath all these years? Or how I truly felt when you left me dead inside ?

I loved you once and nowat times I regret ever knowing you.

Yes,you taught me what it was to truly fall madly in love but you also taught me what it felt like to live with a broken heart Edward.

I hate you ! I hate you Edward Cullen.I hate you for promising me the world before leaving me for one of your distractions in the end.

Please just leave me alone.

He grabbed the paper out of my hand,his eyes turning furiously black as he finished reading my note.I knew that look, he was just a step away from the edge.I knew we would have words the moment this class ended.

What I hadn't expected was him to stand up and confront me right now in front of everybody else..

His chair propelled onto the floor as he hovered over me.

"You think I'm happy about that Bella? Do you honestly believe my lie? That I was busy running behind distractions….when I left you!?" He made a face,disgusted by my accusations before his expression abruptly cooled off and his voice turned dangerously low.

"Everything that I've ever done was for you,I left that day so you could lead a normal human life,have kids,get married and grow old with someone you love.I just wanted you to be ,I thought-"

I didn't let him finish that sentence.

I whispered angrily."Don't..you dare ! Don't you dare say you were thinking about me when you made your decision that day because honestly ? We both know you were just sick and tired of playing with your new might say you love were never half as invested in our replationship as I was.

You perpetually had a foot out of the door from the very beginning of our relationship.You couldn't accept that I loved you in spite of your scars and it was you who made the decision to break us that chose to kill us ! Because YOU couldn't accept YOURSELF."

I stepped forward jabbing his chest with my index finger…..

"SO YES ! THIS…." jab…. "IS" …jab.. "ALL YOUR FAULT ! Don't you DARE say it was all for the right reasons Cullen ! Dont you dare !"

He growled,"You don't know anything."

He sounded so fierce, so mad, so broken… his words filling up the silence that echoed around us…wait a minute… silence?

I turned around to find the whole class staring at us with expressions matching the ones you would wear while watching the season finale of your favorite soap opera…...

Usually I would have laughed or shyed away from the attention…but now I didn't feel like doing either, especially after catching our professor's nearly purple face.

Crap.

"Mr Cullen! Miss Swan! Detention immediately..!"


AN:*blushes shyly* Im sorry if this chapter came out as being a bit weird or chocked with grammatical mistakes.

I have my term exams coming up next weekend and I kinda jotted this down while taking my breaks.
