I liked this part very much:) the relationship between Bella & Eddie-boy is developing pretty good & I most certainly hope that it'll get even beter - donno..maybe something's going to happen

ok, so enjoy;)

While driving to Bella I felt both joy and panic. The joy still lingered from the moment she had said my name in her sleep and the panic was caused by the ever-present worry about Bella's safety and the feeling that she might realize I was dangerous.

With a sigh, I had to admit to myself that that was supposed to happen.

I parked on the corner of Bella's street and waited for Chief Swan to go to work.
After that, I let the fear overtake me and when the fear seemed to have consumed everything inside me, the only thing that was left was self-loathing. I loathed myself for the fact that I was and would always be a vampire; my cold skin, my dead body, my speed, my strength, my bloodlust and most important of all: I was a killer.

In the middle of the millions of thoughts that were shooting through my mind, one in particular stood out: What if she ever hurt herself?

I would kill her.

My masochistic brain went on from there. What íf she got hurt and what if she died? There were so many ways that a human could get hurt or killed – Bella in particular.

Chief Swan drove by in his car then and I was instantly pulled out of my reverie.

I could hear Bella running through her house; run several times up and down the stairs; grabbing her bag, before throwing it somewhere and picking it up again; ruffling some papers and putting some books in her back; and finally she pulled her jacket on and yanked the front door open.

She froze in the door opening when she noticed my Volvo, which was parked in the driveway. 'What..' she mumbled and her face screwed up in a confused expression until she seemed to realize I was picking her up for school today. Her eyes became large for a second, before an impish smile spread across her face and she slowly turned around to lock the door behind her.

Her unhurried pace towards my car irritated me beyond belief and I almost jumped out of the car and threw her over my shoulder to get her in. She hesitantly pulled the passenger side door open and smiled at me when she saw me. 'Can I-' she trailed off and I smiled invitingly.

My worries were slowly fading away at her obvious lack of fear when she saw me – besides the fact that she didn't know how to act in a situation like this.

I started the car then and backed out of the driveway, while looking at Bella. 'How are you?' I asked, knowing she was fine, but needing the reassurance. 'I'm good and you?' She responded cheerfully.

'I feel fantastic.' I told her, grinning widely at her, not able to hide the happiness I felt whenever I was near her.

She looked out the side window in surprise and suddenly cocked her head to the side, staring at the speedometer with shocked eyes. What had I done wrong?

'So..I-I w-was think-king..' Bella stuttered incoherently, all the while keeping her eyes fixed on the speedometer. 'Do you always drive this fast?' She blurted out all of a sudden and stared at me with fearful eyes.
I nodded. 'I always do, when I drove you home and Alice also drives like this.'

Her heart was going wild inside her chest and I was instantly tense. 'Bella, are you okay?'

'Can you d-drive a little slower, please!' She breathed and I slowed down at once, ignoring my impatience with the sluggish pace.

Her pulse also slowed down then and her breathing returned to normal - I smiled at that. 'Better?' I asked, concern still present in my voice. The one time she was afraid of something; of course it had to be my driving skills.
She nodded and returned her eyes to mine.

'What I was trying to tell you was,' Bella began a little while later, and I almost laughed at the lack of fear in her voice. 'that now you know almost everything about my life, I'd love to hear some more about yours.'

She was interested in me – my heart swelled. Even though this was ridiculous; after almost every answer she had given me, she had asked me the same question or something alike and I had answered all of them.

'Go ahead.' I smiled, encouraging her to continue.

Bella had a whole list of questions for me that lasted all throughout the school day and I answered them wholeheartedly. She asked me about my biological parents; my adoptive parents; my brothers and sisters; where I used to live.
And during the lunch break she asked me about my friends – which was a fairly short list, next to my brothers and sisters and some of the Denali-clan, I had to admit there weren't many.

She blushed suddenly and I was immediately curious as to why.

I tried coaxing first, but after that didn't work, I tried pleading. 'Please, Bella, please tell me.'

Her blush became even more forceful then and I held back a growl. 'I blushed, because you didn't mention me as your friend.' She admitted and looked down at the table between us.
Emmett, Jasper and Alice didn't have a problem with me sitting at another table this lunch break, but Rosalie was furious and I had seen visions in Alice's mind of my Aston Martin: smashed to pieces. I didn't care; Bella was all that mattered.

'That's because I hope you're not my friend,' she looked up and stared into my eyes, there was anxiety and sadness there and I wanted to comfort her. 'I hope you're something more than that, or can be.' I couldn't believe I had just said that out loud – I wanted to slap myself on the back of my head.

The corners of her lips twitched and she bent forward, breathing warm and delicious air into my face.

The bell rang then and I cursed Mrs. Cope once more for pressing that button – did she not realize there was a vampire in this school who was having a "moment" with the human he loved? Probably not.

Bella had resumed her questionnaire for me and was now asking more "personal" questions: girls I had liked; what I liked in girls; former girlfriends and lots more. These questions weren't as easy to answer as the previous ones, because it seemed like Bella wanted to know the answers to these questions for a reason, but I couldn't figure out what.

At the end of the day, I drove Bella home and she kept on asking me questions, she was now asking the inconsequential: favourite colours, books, movies, places, holidays, people, animals, etcetera.
I answered them all with as much thought as she seemed to give them when I asked her the exact same questions afterwards.

She had blushed at her favourite colour, wanting to answer something, but looking away quickly when she met my gaze.
After trying coaxing once more, which only caused Bella to avert her eyes, I tried pleading, hoping it would work this time too. I stared into her yes with as much fervour as I could muster and spoke seductively. 'Please, Bella.'

She swallowed loudly and leaned towards me, but blinked bewildered when she got close. 'It's green.' She mumbled softly and leaned back again, embarrassed.
My brow furrowed at that answer. 'I thought you hated green.'
She nodded in agreement, but after two seconds she guided her eyes back upwards and stared into mine. 'I didn't think I ever told you I hated green.'

Right, so that was my mistake of the day – and many more to come. 'You didn't, but it's pretty noticeable on your face.' That was plausible; Bella always seemed somehow irritated when she looked into the forest or at the ground. Why I hadn't noticed it earlier, I didn't know. 'Why is it green then?' I asked genuinely interested.
She looked up into my eyes once more and whispered: 'It's the colour of your eyes.'

My heart swelled once more at that, because maybe – just maybe – Bella liked my appearance, as well as she seemed to like my personality.
Of that I was almost certain: Bella liked me for who I was and didn't fear me one bit.

As the realization of that hit me, my heart swelled once more and I felt almost giddy.

It had started raining then and I remembered about "keeping up appearances". 'Bella, I probably need to get home for dinner.' I told her, my eyes dropping to the ground.

She stood from her porch and whispered: 'Do you want to eat with me? Charlie's not home tonight anyway, he's eating at the Blacks and I'm to stubborn to go.' She wanted me to eat at her home – with her -, my body sang with my love for her and I stood too.

I wanted to accept her offer, but I hád to keep up appearances. I sighed. 'I'm sorry, but Esmee almost certainly cooked dinner already.'
The corners of her lips turned down and she opened the front door. 'Will you,' she waited for a long moment, staring between the ground and me multiple times. 'pick me up for school, tomorrow?'

I smiled reassuringly at her, letting her know she didn't have anything to worry about. 'I'll be here.' I stepped out into the rain then and made my way towards my car.

She was smiling hugely while she waved at me – her heart going insane. 'See you tomorrow then!'

'Goodbye, Bella.'

Her face became scarlet and I chuckled. 'Bye, Edward.' The sound of my name exciting her lips sent a thrill throughout my body.

Edward! Alice screamed in her mind and I tried to block her out immediately – hoping she'd disappear. Edward, Edward, Edward!

'What is it, Alice?' I asked annoyed and opened the front door of our house, to find Alice standing in front of it in the hallway.
How is Bella? Told her you're a vampire yet?

'No, Alice.' I snapped and ran up to my room.

You can act like you're not happy right now, but I know you're just 'glowing inside!' she said the last part out loud and smiled hugely, while making a rainbow motion with her hands.
I threw a pillow at her with such speed, that it exploded when her hand waved it away like it was a feather. Really, are you going to throw pillows at me now, Edward?

I snorted and she stared at me in disbelief for a few seconds.
Jasper flitted into my room then and leaned against the doorpost, smiling at the happiness coming from me. This girl really makes you happy, doesn't she? He asked me and I nodded – making sure Alice noticed.

'You can't have a silent conversation with me in the room!' She slapped Jasper on the back of his head and stormed out of my bedroom.

Oh, no.. 'Alice!' Jasper yelled after her and he disappeared too.

Alice was back in my room then, with Jasper holding his arms around her waist. 'Go to Bella, you'll want to hear this.'

And with that I was gone.

I hope you liked it!

Ok...so, made A HUGE MISTAKE, I mixed green & bronze in the favourite colour bit...sooo, well, I fixed it now. For the people who don't understand: Edward's wearing GREEN lenzes (remember, eats human red eyes, can't really have that can we). And if you now think like "but she loves something about him that's fake!:O, it'll "fixed" in another chapter";)
