Chapter 14

Bella's pov

After making an important call to my dad, the rest of the week has been going by smoothly. My dad told me Jacob has retuned back to Forks and was threatened once again to leave me alone, but who knows if the threat is going to help. Jacob has never hurt me physically, but he just makes me feel so unsafe and I don't know what he's capable of.

Edward saw the doctor again this week and since his leg is healing so well, he no longer needs his crutches but has to wear a boot. Since it's the weekend I finally wake up around eleven a.m. and slowly get dressed today. I decide to just watch some Netflix in the living room for a bit. While I'm watching a movie my door bell rings.

Please don't let it be Jacob. I chant over and over to myself as I open my door.

I let out quiet sigh in relief when I see Alice and Rose standing outside my door.

"Hey guys." I say letting them walk in, I've become very close with them since meeting them at the hospital.

"Hey Bella." They reply in unison.

"What are you guys doing here, not that I don't want you two her- "

"Bella we are going shopping!" Alice squeals, cutting me off.

"Shopping...why?" I ask.

"It's Alice's obsession pretty much." Rose explains.

"Can we see your closet?" Alice asks already heading to my room.

"My closet? Why?" I ask, trying to catch up to her.

I walk into my room and see Alice and Rose looking at my clothes.

"Bella I have to admit you don't have a bad taste in fashion, you just need more clothes." Alice states and Rose nods her head in agreement.

"So put on some shoes and meet us in the car!" Alice orders, heading back outside with Rose.

I put on some converse, grab my phone and purse then head outside. I can't help, but laugh at the yellow Porsche in my driveway it's the perfect car for someone with a personality like Alice. Rose steps out of the passenger seat and I squeeze myself into the tiny back seat.

Once we arrive at the mall and start shopping after an hour I feel like I've been in every clothing store in the mall. I tried to pay for some of the clothes they were buying me, but it just led to a standoff however I snuck in some jean shorts that I paid for.

"Okay can we eat now I'm starving?" I say, practically dragging some shopping bags.

"Okay, okay lets head to the food court." Alice says.

We decide on some Chinese food and once we get start eating, I nearly choke on my orange chicken because of Rose's question.

"So Bella was going on between you and Edward?"

They both grin at me waiting for an answer.

"W-what are you talking about? We're just friends." I reply.

"Yeah, but it's obvious you both like each other more than that." Alice states.

I just look down and eat my Chinese food.

"Bella, is she right?" Rose ask, smiling.

"Who?" I ask trying to play dumb.

"Me!" Alice yells, "You like Edward more than a friend, right?"

"Yes." I mumble and blush.

"Awe!" They say together.

"Bella it's obvious he likes you more than a friend." Rose says.

"Really?" I ask surprised.

"Duh!" Alice comments

"I can tell he really cares about you Bella, and everyone likes you way more than that monstrous Tanya." Rose adds.

"You two would make the cutest couple ever and also a very cute family with Addie and Josh." Alice says.

"He's amazing and so are his kids." I comment with a smile.

After eating we shop a bit more then head to my house to drop me and my many shopping bags off. Once we arrive at my house, when I attempt to get out of Alice's car I trip. I close my eyes waiting for the impact of the cement, but all I feel are strong arms wrap around my waist holding me upright. I look behind me confused and see Edward smiling crookedly at me.

"Hi beautiful." He says, I blush at the name he called me.

"H-hey Edward, thanks for catching me." I reply.

I turn around to see Alice and Rose grinning at us.

"Hey Alice and Rose." He says waving.

"Hey bro." Alice replies.

"Hey Edward." Rose replies.

"Do you need help with all those bags?" Edward ask looking at me.

"Yes, please." I smile.

Even with a heavy boot on his leg he still walks gracefully. After we get all my bags into my house Alice and Rose leave, leaving Edward and I by ourselves.

"Where's Addison and josh?" I ask, laughing in my head because I just realized I ask that question a lot.

"There across street with Ms. Smith, Bella can we talk?" Edward ask, suddenly nervous.

"Sure, let's go to the living room." I say.

Once we both take a seat on my couch, Edward turns to me and scoots closer.

"Bella." He breaths, then continues,

"Will you do me the honor of being my girlfriend?"

My eyes widen in shock, he wants me to be his girlfriend? My thoughts start going back to how my last relationship ended, but I stopped myself right there and remember what Angela told me on the phone. I can't let Jacob ruin all my chances of happiness in life. I know how I feel about Edward and I defiantly know my answer.

"I would love to be your girlfriend." I reply softly with a big smile.

Edward smiles big, lifting me up from the couch and hugging me tightly to his body. Once he releases me from the hug He holds my face in his hands and brings my lips to his. I really think fireworks are going off behind me the moment his lips touch mine. Once we pull away for breath, Edward smiles down at me and plants a chaste kiss on my lips.

I'm Edward Cullen's girlfriend, I process that in my head and can't keep a smile off my face.
