Chapter 11
The next few months passed without incident. Edward's feelings for the girl seemed to die down a little, but his mood still changed when he was around her. We sat at our normal lunch table, discussing but never eating. None of us dared to look Bella's way especially Edward. He was ever so careful not to even look at her afraid that it might rekindle his feelings for her. One day all of that changed. I was sitting in math and my phone shook in my pocket. I got a text from Alice.
I just had a vision. Edward is going to try and get closer to her again.
Before I could text anything back I felt it. The surge of joy Edward got whenever Bella spoke to him or even looked at him. He was talking to her. I made it a point to ask him what it was about. Rosalie was giving me a look.
"Edward" I muttered and she understood immediately.
The bell rang and I went to English. We had moved on from The Odyssey to The Aeneid. I had read both books so many times in my lifetime it was torture to sit through the class. I continued to amaze the teacher with my answers to his questions about the book. He couldn't believe a student could give such through answers.
Once the bell rang I met up with Emmett, Rosalie and Alice. We got to the parking lot and noticed Edward was already pulled out of his parking spot blocking all the other cars from getting out of the parking lot. We all slid easily in the car and Edward was laughing.
"What's so funny" Rosalie asked him as he drove off.
"Nothing, some of the guys here are so stupid. Bella has been asked to the girl's choice dance three times already." He said and continued to laugh.
"Edward this has to stop, do you still have feelings for this girl?" Alice asked suddenly serious.
"Why is it a problem if I do?" He asked us a hit of annoyance in his voice.
"Can you trust this girl? I mean is she really worth putting your entire family in danger?" Rosalie asked
"Whoa, I'm not even close to telling her anything about us. I can't explain what I feel for her. I just don't want to see her hurt. I'm sure it's the same thing that Emmett feels for Rosalie and what Jasper feels for Alice."
Now that I thought about it the feeling Edward felt when he was around Bella was pretty close to what I felt for Alice, even if it wasn't as strong.
We continued the car ride in silence and once we got home Edward retreated to his room. The rest of us sat in the living room.
"I think we should just accept what is going on. I don't think it puts us in any danger as of right now. When he asks us to meet her, well then we will discuss it." Emmett told us.
"I agree, plus we haven't seen Edward this happy in a long time. Come to think of it I don't think I have ever seen him this happy. Alice looked at me; as if to say just go with it.
"Ok I guess you two are right, but the minute he puts any of us in danger I'm going to step in." I said
"So it's mutually agreed that we won't interfere with this any longer unless it puts us in immediate danger?" Rosalie asked.
A unison chorus of "Agreed" followed.
A friend was reading the story and realized that I had been spelling Emmett wrong the whole time. Woops. Sorry.
PLEASE REVIEW you guys have been doing a great job so far.
Since I'm writing this on my mom's work laptop she has to switch it for a different one and I'm not sure how long that will take. So I'm not sure if I'm going to be able to update for a while. Keep posted.
