Disclaimer: I don't own Twilight, but I love the characters, so I'm going to mess with them for a while.

We got out of class and I was glad I had keys to Edward's Volvo. I had no clue where I was taking Zach and Carina. In one way, I wanted to be alone with Zach, but I was happy to be with Carina. She's my friend, and I didn't know what would happen if it were just Zach and me.

I pulled onto the highway, when Zach commented on my driving.

"Um, Bella, aren't you driving just a tad too fast?" Zach asked when he looked at the speedometer; I was topping 120.

"I guess, just a little too fast." I chuckled and slowed down to 65.

"By the way, senorita, where are we headed?" Carina asked.

"I have no clue. Away from school and from home. Away to a place we can escape for a while."

"Won't Edward be mad you're with me?" Zach asked. He seemed disgusted as he said Edward's name.

"He won't know, we'll have the Volvo back at the school before the day ends. Right now, jus let go, we've got three hours to do whatever we want!" I laughed and Carina laughed along with me. Zach still seemed mad or worried.

"Zach, whatever is bugging you, let it go." Carina complained.

"No, let him be crabby, he'll realize in thirty to forty years he was making a mistake." I punched his arm and he blushed a deep purple that was near maroon.

"Bella, I have a question for you." Zach said in a monotone.

"Yeah?"

"Well, you have a bunch of guys wanting you… yet you decided to be friends with me, and I didn't even realize you were there until you sat down next to me. You could be one of the most popular girls in the school. You could be dating any guy you want to. Instead you're dating Edward, and have me lusting after you, more than you know." He looked down at the floor of the car. As he said the last part though, he looked me straight in the eye. I watched his emerald irises tremble. He wasn't so used to being forward.

I was glad he wasn't really popular. If I let my secret slip someday, it wouldn't be spread around.

"I don't know exactly. I'm, in a way, naturally drawn to you. I… the more I thought about it… I don't… want to cheat on Edward. I love him more than life itself."

I chuckled quietly at how true that statement was. "However… there's something about you that I just can't stay away from. It's been two days, but I feel like I've known you for a century. I know… in some way, whether that be platonic or otherwise, we are supposed to be together… We cannot just happen to have the same exact schedule. Now I don't know anything about religion, but I do know someone or something is pulling the strings and wants to see us together in some way." I smiled at Zach, and he smiled back.

Carina laughed from the back seat. "Well, I know you two are having a nice heart to heart, but I want to do something before we go back to school."

I laughed. "Okay, let's go!" I sped farther down the expressway. "What do you guys want to do? In three hours time?"

"Hm, Bella, you drive fast, why don't you slow down and tell us about yourself, tell us… your deepest darkest secret!" Zach laughed.

"You want to know?"

"Yeah!" Carina chorused in, I loved how we could all sound like little Kindergarteners.

"You really want to know?"

"Yes, now please tell us!"

"Okay, well how much to you know about mythological creatures?"

A/N: Yay, cliffy! Hm, what do you think? Don't you love their little heart to heart.

I got the "heart to heart" thing from the show "Gossip Girl" I just put every episode so far on my iPod, so it stuck in my head. "S and B at the Palace having a heart to heart" that's from the pilot…

Well review! In fifteen minutes time, I don't have any new reviews, so review while I update!!!

You know you love me.
