AN: Aha, this chapters like a crappy filler. Lol. Foohy, I so wish I was at school right now, but noo. Grr. Only I would get suspended on spirit week.
Disclaimer: I own nothing but that hot picture of Kellan that Steff sent me for my B-Day. And I probably shouldn't own that. I could drool everywhere…
Edwards POV.
My class after lunch also included Bella, so I pulled her away from the table and off to the Direction of Biology. (Guys! I don't remember if I told you what classes they had together before, but if its different now, SORRY!)
Bella and I never did pay attention in this class. Carlisle and Esme were always teaching us random things at home, we were well ahead of the other students.
We were standing outside the door and waiting for the warning bell to ring before going inside, no need to go inside and sit for 5 minutes. I pulled Bella to me and wrapped my arms around her back as she wrapped hers around my waist. The smile that twisted its way onto my face has no hope of going away.
"Today hasn't been so bad," Bella smiled againt my chest.
"I know, I was expecting it a lot more worse, weren't you?"
"Yeah, us teenagers are jerks," she laughed.
The bell telling us that we only had a minute left of class rang and Bella and I entered the class hand in hand.
Not everyone stared, but they all at least looked over at us once or twice.
We sat at our usual table and started talking about nothing in particular.
"I can't wait for this weekend!" Bella sighed happily.
"Why?" confusing ran through my voice.
"The last weekend before spring break," she said as though I should have known.
Really, does it matter if it's the last weekend before spring break if there's still a week of school to endure?
"Okay?" I said questioningly.
"Masen, must you burst my bubble?" she sighed.
"Nope, we're waiting for marriage," I laughed.
"Ew! You're a pervert!" Bella laughed, and playfully smacked my shoulder.
"Edward! Bella! We are in biology class. Now, unless you are discussing this subject matter, I'd be happy if you'd refrain from holding conversation in my classroom," Mr. Banner, the graying teacher spat.
"Sir, our conversation was on the subject of biology," Bella informed him sweetly.
I snorted out in laughter, that is probably not the type of biology he meant…
The class continued with Bella and myself paying no attention whatsoever and distracting the class with our random bursts of laughter here and there.
After school I went to Bella's last class and waited for her to exit the room. She was talking quietly with the girl from this morning, Angela.
I leaned against the wall watching her talk to her friend and not interrupting.
I couldn't help smiling to myself as Bella through back her head to laugh, sending her beautiful brown hair cascading down her back to reveal the most gorgeous smile on earth. As I stood aside to watch, I could see the obvious twinkle of humor in her eyes, and couldn't help feel curious as to what caused it.
Bella caught me staring from my position near the wall and winked at me before finishing up her conversation with Angela.
Angela looked over her shoulder to look for Bella's distracter and smiled widely. She waved me over and I kicked off the wall to approach the girls.
"Hey, Love," I kissed Bella on her forehead and wrapped my arms around her waist.
"Hi," she smiled contently.
"You guys are too cute, you know that right?" Angela giggled.
"Angie! Don't start him with his 'Edward Cullen Is Not Cute, but Sexy' speech. We'll be here for hours," Bella said in mock horror.
"Sorry dear, but you're the only one who's going to receive that speech. You're the most fun to torture," I chuckled.
"Hm, I wonder why?" she asked sarcastically. Then turned to Angela, "he only gives me that speech because he knows I'll end up kissing him to shut him up."
"He's got to take what he can get," Angela laughed.
"So, are you going to tell me what was so funny before or am I going to get the talk about being nosy again?" I asked the girls, but directed the last part at Bella.
"Mike Newton," Angela snorted before Bella could think about lecturing me.
I immediately stiffened at the mention of his name. "What about him?" I growled out, trying not to make it seem like I was upset with either one of them.
"The look on his face when Bella yelled at him at lunch. He looked like little kid who got their lollypop taken away," Angela laughed, and Bella and I joined in.
"Hey Angie," someone called from behind me.
I turned to see Ben Cheney, a kid a little shorter the Bella, the shortest o our group.
"Hey Ben!" Angela's smile immediately brightened when he leaned up to kiss her cheek.
I couldn't help but smile at the unusual couple before that looked so perfect together.
"Hey guys," Ben smiled at Bella and me.
"Hi Ben," we said simultaneously, causing all of us to smile.
"I didn't get a chance to say this earlier, but you guys are great together, I'm happy for you," he smiled genuinely. Him and Angela are so much alike.
"Thanks," Bella smiled, and I nodded in agreement.
"So, are we still on for tonight?" Angela asked Bella and Ben.
"Yep."
"On for what?" I asked them casually.
"Oh! I forgot! We're are doubling with Ben and Angie." Bella smiled brightly at me. I knew she was really excited when the word double escaped her lips.
Bella really wants to go out now that everyone knows, and Ben and Angela are a great couple to join us.
"Cool," I grinned.
"Monday is an odd day for a date, but oh well." Angela shrugged.
"So, where are we going?" I asked curiously.
"Bowling," Ben answered.
"Oh," I laughed. I know Bella loves bowling, this will be fun. She gets so competitive and cute.
"I'm so excited!" Bella squealed in an Alice-like manner.
"I bet," I smiled, "We should get home, if we finish our homework Dad will be more likely to let us go."
"Oh! True!" Bella smiled and quickly hugged Angela and Ben goodbye.
"Bye Edward!" Angela exclaimed. I like her, even though I just met her today (I don't know how, her and Bella are really close.) I can tell she's a really good person and a great friend.
"Bye!" I called over my shoulder.
I walked to the front of the school with my arm securely around Bella's waist, and her leaning happily into my side.
Nobody dared make any comments, they were all scared of Bella's wrath from earlier today returning. Even the wrestling team were scared.
"Well, well, well. Look what we have here," a familiar voice called.
"What do you want Emmett?" Bella laughed.
"What took you guys so long? You're usually the first ones out the building. I bet its all the frustration for not being able to be all lovey-dovey at school, but now that you can do that you have no reason to rush home!" He smiled probably thinking about how much of a genius he wishes he was.
"Shut up, Princess! You're just making yourself sound more stupid," Bella grimaced. Hey, he was probably right, who knows. Maybe some sub conscience part of us rushed home so we didn't have to keep up the charade.
"I resent that," he said playfully, coming over to give Bella a bear hug.
"Emmett! We have to go home! We have no time for this! I want to go bowling!" Bella whined, pulling away from Emmett quickly, clearly in no mood for games.
The look Emmett gave us was hilarious. He was confused about why Bella wanted to go bowling, and confused about where that even came from, I bet.
I walked Bella over to everyone else and she hugged them in a rush, explaining our date and wanting to get going.
I laughed at Bella's immaturity and we got into the Volvo to get home.
"Edward! You're driving slow!" Bella whined, just as she did with Emmett.
"Bella! I'm driving 20 over the limit!" I whined back, mocking her of course.
"Well, so."
I chuckled at Bella and increased my speed by 5mph to make her happy.
"I can't wait Edward," she sighed happily.
"If I didn't know any better I'd think that you cared more that we were going bowling then that we were going on a date," I sighed. I didn't want to feel like this, but I am a human. And we are very insecure creatures.
"Masen! You know that's not it. Of course I'm excited to be going bowling, but what makes it even better is I'm going with you! How could you ever not think that?" she demanded.
"I dunno," I murmured, embarrassed at my insecurities.
"Don't be embarrassed, babe," she sighed and lifted her hand to run her fingertips across my cheeks.
Babe? Hmm, interesting. We never called each other those well-used names. Oh well, I like it.
"Sorry," I mumbled, not knowing if she understood or not.
"Don't be, you're cute," she smiled.
"What's that have to do with anything?" I snorted pulling into the driveway.
"Everything," she smiled, not elaborating.
"Okay," I laughed.
I got out of the car and jogged to the passenger side to open the door for Bella. We walked hand-in-hand to the front door.
"Do you have a lot of homework, Love?" I asked her unlocking the door with my key.
"Yeah, English. Like five pages. And we have that work for biology," she sighed, sitting down to the dining room table.
"Oh yeah," I really need to pay more attention to the work given in that class…
I pulled out my math homework and began working.
We were sitting there a good 30 minutes before I finally finished. To bad I couldn't say the same for Bella.
I looked up at Bella from under my eyelashes, trying to be be suspiscios, and just admired her. The way her forehead crinkled slightly when she was concentrating, and how her hair shined brightly in the sun, and the way she got this determined look in her beautiful eyes when she came to a difficult problem, not to mention the way she's just gorgeous.
Bella and I sat across form each other in silence doing our homework, in my case day-dreaming, and playing footsies under the table.
Emmett told me that in China if you step on someones foot, or play footsies with them it means you want to sleep with them.
I looked up again at Bella's beauty and smiled. She's all mine.
Ugh! I really do not need to be thinking about this! Stupid Emmett.
Bella finished her work, finally, and closed her folder dramtically looking up at me. "Finally," she sighed.
I chuckled at her display and asked if she wanted a snack.
"Yesss!"
I chuckled again, I find I do that alot with Bella, and dragged her to the kitchen.
"What would you like, my dear?" I asked Bella brightly, standing with the fridge door open.
She thought for a minute with a look of pure concentration on her face, then suddenly smiled, "chips and dip."
"Works for me," I got the dip out of the fridge and the chips out of the cabinet above.
We sat munching in silence when Carlisle came in the front door.
"Hey guys! How was school?" he questioned. Putting his keys on the stand by the door and throughing his work stuff across the couch, Esme will not be happy.
"Good! Bella told off Mike and Jessica, and it was so ho-"
I broke off at a warning glance from Carlisle.
"-funny?" I finished in a question.
"Yeah, no need to hear about my anger management problems," Bella said annoyed, "but can Edward and I go on a double date with Angie and Ben tonight?" she asked, excitement flaring in her voice.
"Did you do your homework?" he questioned in his 'Strict-Dad-Voice.'
"Yes," she smiled.
"Finish it?"
"Yes!" she laughed at his antics.
"Then I don't see why not," he smiled.
"Yay! Thanks dad!" Bella squealed and hugged him tightly.
"I'm going to go call Angie to see when we're leaving, Edward go get ready!" she practically yelled, then flew up the stairs.
I've never seen her this excited about going somewhere before, it's pretty darn adorable if I do say so myself.
