Chapter 13: Chapter 13
See I told you I'd update
Suddenly Edward's head peaked out from the door. "Um actually I need to call somebody real quick, it'll only be 10 minutes. Do you mind?"
"No," I said waving him away. Perfect I desperately needed to talk to rise. "I'll be in your car." I shouted as he ran back outside.
I walked outside whipping my phone out and quickly calling Rose.
The phone rang once twice.
"Yellow Bellow!" I heard a loud voice yellow excitedly.
I opened the door and quickly slid inside.
"Hey Emmett! Love you hon, but incase you want to talk about guys and crushes with me I suggest you give the phone to Rose."
"Oh. Eww," he said and I heard the phone be thrown and land in someone's hand.
"Hey Bella you got Eddie trouble."
"How'd you know," I whined into the phone.
"Cause I know you Bells. Now what's going on? And I do not appreciate how you practically hung up on me this morning after that vital piece of information was shared and NOT explained!"
"Sorry, so Edward and I are hanging out today. Were going swimming, maybe go down to la push and do a little cliff diving, and then maybe go up to Seattle."
"So basically you're gonna roam around town and do what you want?"
"Yea. Well I really like Edward. I mean I hated him a few days ago, yesterday I kinda had a little crush on him, and now I'm falling in way to deep to be normal!"
"So? Ever consider its love at first sight? He may be 'the one.'"
"He doesn't like me like that though!" I whined. I've been talking to Alice too much. "He just wants to be friends and I really want to be more than friends. And I think he knows that I like him. And it's going to completely ruin the friendship. As much as I want to be more than friends I'd rather be just his 'secret no one can know friend' than nothing at all!"
"Ok well, what do you like about him?" She sounded like a therapist.
"I like the way his mind works. I like how he believes in second chances and all that. I love the way his eyes light up when he laughs and how easy it is to get lost in those green orbs. I like how his hair is always sticking straight up and I wanna know what it feels like to run my hands threw it. I want to know his favorite thing to do and who was his childhood hero. I want to know everything about him. I can't find a single thing wrong with him, except for his sister but she doesn't count."
"Wow you really are in deep! Bella you've only had a few boyfriends and you've never felt this strongly about them. Don't be afraid of love. It's not the enemy unless you let it be."
"What the hell Rose! When did you become a therapist?"
"Bella," Rose warned.
"But he doesn't like me back," I said quietly as I picked at my shoelaces.
"Well then…we'll just have to make him."
"Now that's the Rose I know!"
"I'm back," she sang. "Is he worth fighting for?"
"Absolutely!"
"Well then show him the real you. No one can help but fall in love with it. Trust me, you'll make him fall for you faster than it takes an honorary meat lovers convention to attract Emmett," she giggled.
"You think?"
"Definitely! Guys are idiots! They need to be shown what and whom they love. Right Emmett."
"Yep!" I heard Emmett's happy cheery voice on the phone.
"Just don't be shy around him, but don't be too revealing you gotta be mysterious guys love that. Always laugh at his jokes but don't make it seem obvious. Let him catch you flirting with him but not every time only once or twice. Don't be all-proper around him, but don't be rude. If you're going swimming flaunt your good looks and you better not wear a one piece or so help me! Never talk about any of your past relationships and if he asks you about them just say 'eh.' Be real outgoing and don't let there be silence for more than a couple of minutes. Get to know him better and make sure that he does the same for you. That way, he'll fall in love with you without really having a choice of his own."
"I never said I was in love with him," I said quietly, but at the same time I knew I was.
"Would be calling me if you weren't? Think bout it honey, would you."
The way I felt about him. How my heart always skipped a beat and then picked up faster when I saw him. How I couldn't help but get lost in his gaze. How he looked at me like I was the only person on this planet. How I nearly melted at the knees when he touched me. How he was constantly on my mind. It could only be described as love.
I was in love with Edward Cullen.
"Your right."
"I usually am, but what about in particular this time," I heard a voice that most definitely didn't belong to Rose behind me.
I turned around as I felt myself get bright red from the neck up. How much did he hear?
Edward started laughing at my expression. A deep musical laugh that reached his eyes and was nearly as loud as Emmett's.
"It's ok, I didn't hear anything except 'your right.'"
I sighed in relief but it didn't necessarily mean that he was telling the truth. But if he did hear then at least it wasn't going to ruin the friendship. Of course he did laugh at me. Or was that at my expression?
Ok breathe Bella breath! Listen to Rose. Rose is usually right when it comes to guys. He's supposed to catch you flirting a few times anyway. Make him fall for you. He'll fall in love with you. Then it'll all be good. Just listen to rose…oh shoot Rose.
I quickly lifted the phone to my ear as Edward opened his door and climbed in. I buckled myself up in the passage seat.
"Bella you better damn call me the second he's gone or…." I cut her off.
"Gotta go Rose."
I just hung up on Rosalie Cullen. I'm so dead.
I loved over to Edward to see the laughter still in his eyes as he smiled that crooked smile down at me.
I just smiled back. "Well you didn't expect me to just sit in the car for 10 minutes I get bored!"
Edward laughed before starting up the car and driving down the road.
I seat seemed to eat me as I relaxed into it.
"What's your favorite color?" Edward's smooth voice suddenly rang through the silence. Oh right…there wasn't supposed to be much silence, I have to keep up with Rose's rules. Never let there be silence for more than a few minutes.
"Green," I said without thinking and thank god he didn't look over or he'd seen the blush on my cheeks and ask why. The last thing I wanted to explain was why my favorite color suddenly changed to green, which just so happened to be the color of his eyes.
"What's your favorite thing to do?" he asked before I got a chance to breathe.
"Umm…. probably hanging out with Dylan."
I looked over to see him frowning. "Oh."
"And reading. I kind of get lost in books." I said quickly changing the subject. I knew that he hated my brother the way I hated his sister. I'd have to change that. Alex and I have a reason to hate each other. Dylan and Edward just did. I bet they could become friends if they ever tried. Which was not going to happen.
"What book are you reading right now?" he said getting the curious happy look back to his gorgeous face.
"Well I'm currently reading a book called A Door Near Here by Heather Quarles." (It's one of my favorite books)
"What's your favorite type of music?"
"It's kinda between Classic or Rock," I said
"Classic or Rock? You realize those are the absolute exact opposite?" Edward said glancing at me for a second with an amused expression before he turned his eyes back to the road.
I shrugged. "I guess I just like a variety."
I glanced at the speed nominator. We were going 118 miles, and I loved it! "Fast enough?" I asked smirking up at him.
"Does it bother you?" He said sheepishly running a hand threw his gorgeous hair and making it stand up straight. He slowed down quite a bit. We were now going 69.
"It bothers me that you slowed down," I said and his signature crooked smile flashed across his face. He sped up again chuckling to himself.
There was never a few seconds of silence as we drove to La Push. We were constantly asking questions and telling funny stories to each other. We had so much fun.
I found out so much about Edward as he did with me. His favorite color was blue. He adored his mother, but occasionally fought with his father. He loved music and had a massive collection at home. He basically loved all music, and couldn't pick his favorite type. He hated rap, as did I. He loved playing the piano. His mom forced him to take dancing lessons when he was little. He lasted about 3 and half days before they kicked him out. Apparently he would always sneak into the costumes room and stay there for the whole class. He couldn't sing what-so-ever. I'm sure he wasn't that bad, but he insisted he would break all mirrors in the state if he sang. With a voice like his, he was probably pretty good though. Edward used to love squirrels, but now had a deathly fear of them. Apparently he saw one in the backyard one day and tried to catch it. The squirrel attacked him and he still had a scar on his chest. So now he flinches every time he sees one.
"Were here!" Edward yelled as the car slowly slowed to a halt.
