NOT MINE!


I finish applying my makeup, spraying on my perfume when I hear the doorbell ring. I'm going to lunch with Emmett, we decided we wanted some brother-sister quality time. To catch up and what not. I grabbed my purse and and walked downstairs and answered the door, getting annoyed by the loud ringing bell. He's so impatient. I open the door and smile at my older brother.

"Emmy!" I squealed and jumped on him. He laughed hugging me back as I ruffled his hair and kissed his cheek.

"Hey baby sister how have you been?" He asked setting me down.

"Good, nothing's changed since we saw each other yesterday silly." I replied. He shrugged and asked if I was ready to go. I nodded and grabbed my keys before locking the door behind me and getting in my brother's Jeep.

"So where are we going to eat?" I questioned as we sat in his car and drove towards wherever Emmett decided we'd eat. We like the same stuff so it made no difference to me.

"I decided Johnny Rocket's would be good, it's our favorite place." Emmett said.

"Yum sounds awesome." I agreed. It's one of our favorite places to eat, Edward always seems to tag along when we go. I wonder if he will this time. I felt bad about yesterday, when I rejected him because truth is I wanted nothing more than to tell him I wanted to give him a chance, but I have morals and I'm trying to be stronger. Edward needs to plead and beg for a chance with me now. Until then we're strictly friends. Emmett and I jam out to Blink 182 during the fifteen minute drive to the Johnny Rocket's. When we arrive we're seated outside on a beautiful sunny day and we were asked what we'd like.

"I'll take a double cheese burger with extra sauce and fries with a Sprite please." Emmett ordered. Our waiter wrote it down and turned to me.

"And could I please have the bacon cheeseburger with extra sauce fry combo with a Coke?" I questioned. He wrote it down, we thanked him and he left with our menus. Emmett leaned back in his seat.

"What's up with you and Cullen? You two seemed a little distant last night. You're besties and are always all over each other, I don't get it." Emmett brought up. I sighed and shrugged my shoulders, crossing my arms over my chest leaning back as well.

"We had a bit of a falling out, nothing huge. It was over Tanya." I explained simply. Emmett shook his head and we thanked our waiter for our drinks.

"Ok I can see your point, Tanya is just an annoying loopy who hounds poor Edward until he gives in and goes crawling back to her. You can't blame him, he's so used to her his brain doesn't contemplate this kind of shit. He doesn't like her, he hasn't in a long time, but Tanya is a bitchy stalker, she won't leave him alone. She's been calling him again." Emmett replied. My eyes widened. She's been calling him again? For how long! Since he and I were "together"?

"How long has that been going on?" Emmett held up one finger.

"Just the last week, he hasn't agreed to her, he keeps telling her to fuck off because it's over for good. I don't understand why he hasn't gone back to her, I mean seriously he always has, it's a tad weird to be honest. Do you know what's going on? What did you fight about?" Emmett was prying now, I know it's because he cares but I can't let him know. He'd fucking kill Edward. He would probably never talk to me again.

"Just how he told me that they broke up and said it was over for good but then I argued that he always says that and goes back to her. Let's just say he wasn't very happy about me being honest." I replied. Emmett nodded. It wasn't a complete lie. But I couldn't tell him what Edward said or what I said or even more what we did.

"Well we all know Edward, he just isn't one for change is all. It'll be alright, I promise." Emmett squeezed my hand and then the food came. We stopped talking about Edward and discussed the new album and how great it turned out. We talked about how much fun the next few tours will be, we're both stoked. When lunch is over we go to Jasper and Edward's for some down time. Both were home, Edward was in his room. Jasper said he'd been in there all day. I decided to go investigate. Just because I'm mad doesn't mean I don't care about him anymore I still love him. I knocked on his door, I heard his guitar stop playing and his singing was gone.

"Go away." He mumbled and started strumming again. I knocked again more determined. I heard him sigh in frustration and move around some before opening his door.

"I said go awa--oh, hi Bella." He said. I smiled slightly and motioned if I could come in. He nodded and stepped aside, I moved underneath his arm before he shut the door behind us. His room was a mess at the moment, clothes strewn across the floor and his bed un-made.

"You doing alright? Jasper said you haven't come out all day, I came to see if you were ok." I said softly. Edward sat on his bed, leaning back on his hands. He scoffed.

"Yeah like you care." He snorted before rolling his eyes. Great now he's mat at me. I turned to look at him. He was playing with his fingers. I went over and stood in front of him, hands on my hips.

"Edward please don't be mad..." I whispered. He looked up, his eyes were sad and didn't hold the playful mischief they usually do. That made me frown.

"I can't be mad? Why am I not allowed to be mad if you are? That's not fair i the least bit Bella, I've been trying to get you to notice me again, trying to get you to see that I care. Why won't you just fucking give me a shot?" Edward snapped. I put my hands around his neck, tickling the back of his hair before rubbing the back of his neck. It was calming him down easily, his eyes relaxed and he sighed softly.

"Sorry it's just...I got mad ok? I really like you Bella and I know I've been an asshole and a jerk face and a complete douche bag but I really care about you and I wish you would just give me a fucking chance to prove my love, non-physically anyway." He apologized. I smiled softly and brushed his bangs back from his face. Edward's fingers played with my bracelets, he paid special attention to my blue anchor one.

"This one new? I've never seen you wear it, it's very pretty." I smiled.

"Emmy bought it for a couple days ago when we went shopping." I said. He nodded. Edward moved me so I was standing in-between his legs and his arms wrapped around my waist, I tickled his neck with my fingers and played with his hair. I kissed his forehead.

"What do you say? Tell me what to do, tell me what you want me to do so that you'll accept me?" Edward was smiling now, I leaned down so my forehead was pressed against his. I cupped his cheeks, stroking them softly, feeling slight stubble.

"You know me better than anyone Edward, you figure it out." I answered with a smirk. He chuckled and placed a warm kiss under my chin, nuzzled the crook of my neck.

"I've missed your smell." He muttered, his warm lips brushing against my skin. His hands played with my pearls, and I moved my face close to his so our lips were almost touching.

"You need a shave." I whispered and pressed my lips to his lightly, he smiled into the kiss and I pulled back slowly, biting my lip fighting a smile which broke through anyways.
