Chapter 11

Bella's POV

I was at my locker before second period when Edward came up to me.

"Hi! I needed to talk to you," we said at the same time and laughed.

"Okay, um… but can I go first? It's important," he said and I stared at him.

"Well, mine's important too!" I said and we laughed again.

"He's your best friend! Ask him out!" I thought and sighed.

"You go first," he said and I nodded.

"Okay, well I mean I know we're best friends but I've…" I started and got nervous.

"You've what?" he said and I sighed.

"I've got to get to class," I said and he nodded.

"Oh, at first I thought you were going you've liked me,"

"DID ALICE SAY SOMETHING?" I yelled and he stared at me.

"No," he said and I nodded.

"I thought I heard her," I said and he nodded.

"You know cause if you did like me, and we tried dating, it…." he trailed off and I sighed. Did he know I liked him?

"It would what?" I asked and he laughed nervously.

"It would be weird," he said and I nodded.

"Very," I said and suddenly became aware of the circle of people forming around us.

"ASK HER OUT!" I heard someone yell at the same time I heard, "ASK HIM OUT!"

"Yeah," the people said agreeing.

"Come on, even people who don't know you, know that you two should be together," a freshman said and Edward ran his hand through his hair.

"Everyone knows it except for you two!" A senior said and I laughed and held my books close to me, I hated being the center of attention.

"Will you go out with me?" Edward asked. Everyone was smiling and nodding at me.

"Well?" Someone asked and I sighed and ran away like a coward.

"Ouch," I heard someone say as I ran.

Edward's POV

"GO!" I heard as Jasper and Alice pushed me forward.

"Hi! I needed to talk to you," we said at the same time and laughed.

"Okay, um… but can I go first? It's important," I said and she stared at me. I am so nervous.

"Well, mine's important too!" she said and we laughed again. How was I going to do this? Be cool and calm? Or be a nervous wreck? I'll take choice number 2 only because I am a nervous wreck.

"You go first," I said and she nodded and looked down for a second.

"Okay, well I mean I know we're best friends but I've…" she started and I felt joy inside knowing what the rest would be.

"You've what?" I said and she sighed.

"I've got to get to class," she said and I nodded. Nope not what I thought it would be.

"Oh, at first I thought you were going you've liked me," I said.

"DID ALICE SAY SOMETHING?" She yelled and I stared at her.

"No," I said and she nodded.

"I thought I heard her," she said and chuckled nervously.

"You know cause if you did like me, and we tried dating, it…." I trailed off suddenly losing all words as I stared at her.

"It would what?" she asked and I laughed nervously. Is it getting hot in here or is it just me?

"It would be weird," I said and she nodded in agreement.

"Very," she said and I saw her glance around us. A circle of people had formed around us.

"ASK HER OUT!" I heard someone yell at the same time I heard, "ASK HIM OUT!"

"Yeah," the people said agreeing.

"Come on, even people who don't know you, know that you two should be together," a freshman said and I ran my hand through my hair. I did not want this much attention around us.

"Everyone knows it except for you two!" A senior said and Bella laughed and pulled her books closer to her. This was it; I would do it.

"Will you go out with me?" I asked and heard people whisper and giggle. Was it that obvious that we were perfect together?

"Well?" Someone asked and Bella sighed. I saw color creep up on her cheeks. She hated being the center of attention. That's why I wanted it to be just us when I asked her. She wouldn't feel obligated to say yes. I watched her and waited for an answer but instead she ran away.

"Ouch," I heard someone say.
