Ch 14
The music was so loud it was hard to hear Alice squeal. Maybe this is how I should keep my radio in the truck. I looked around and saw some familiar faces but not the one I was looking for.
We made our way towards the bar to get something to drink. I asked for a sprite. I knew that I could have gotten something stronger. They never carded in this place, but I wanted t keep a straight head about me. I grabbed my drink, following Rose and Alice towards a corner booth. We sat down for a minute before we decided to go right for the dancing.
Alice, Rose and I were hitting it hard. I was having a blast. Even Emmet and Jasper started dancing with us. It seemed to be the perfect night. I was so into the music I never noticed that Jasper was dancing a little closer to Alice. When it finally dawned on me, I looked over and saw the same thing happening with Emmett and Rose. I started to feel a little lonely, until I felt an arm snake around my middle.
I stiffened a little when I felt an arm snake around me. "Come on doll. Don't stop dancing now. I was so enjoying it that I had to come over and say hello."
I looked up and saw a very attractive man behind me. He was good looking but he still was not Edward. I smiled and started to move again. There was no harm in one dance. I was enjoying myself when I felt a pair of eyes on me. I know it sounds crazy to know that he was watching without seeing him, but I swear I could feel my face start to blush because of him watching.
I looked over at our booth. Sure enough, I saw Edward watching me. He looked pissed. It was then that I made eye contact with him. He shook his head. I continued to stare for a moment when he shook his head again. Only so slightly did he then nod for me to come to him.
Without even realizing what I was doing, I went to move away from the man holding me close. He grabbed a little tighter and whispered in my ear not to leave him.
I smiled and thanked him for the dance but said my friends were looking for me. I walked away feeling like I needed a shower. He was a nice guy, however he gave me a weird feeling. It was a feeling that he could be very dangerous when he wanted to be.
I walked to the booth, seeing no one but Edward when I got there. I stood there for a moment not really knowing what to say. I made a move to take a seat across from him, when he shook his head at me again.
"You know, you could ask me to do something instead of shaking your head at me. If you don't want me to sit here, then where would you like me to sit? On your lap?" I was only joking but he then smiled at me like a cat about to pounce on it's prey.
"I am not sitting on your lap! I think that sitting here is just fine, thank you." I sat down across from him. He made a move to get up when the man I was dancing with stepped up to the table.
"Excuse me miss. I just wanted to give you my card. I thoroughly enjoyed dancing with you. Please tell me that you will give me a call sometime." He handed me a card then grabbed my hand, kissed it and winked at me. He proceeded to walk away without any other words.
I chanced a glance at Edward to see him scowling at me. I was about to ask him what that was for when he stood up and walked away. I could not believe him. I thought for sure he would get a little jealous and fight for me. I looked around trying to find Alice or Rose. I saw them walking towards me.
"Hey, we are getting ready to go. It's getting late and I need to make it back before curfew." Alice was smiling from ear to ear. Then she leaned closer to me and whispered, "You better make a move before the night is over." She leaned back and gave me a meaningful look. I really needed to do something nice for her.
"You will make sure my sister makes it home, correct? I saw some guys looking at her like she is something to eat. I need to make sure she gets home ok." Rose gave Edward a serious stink eye. He looked at her for a minute. He then nodded and looked back at me.
Rose smiled then before I knew it, they were gone. I sat there waiting for Edward to say anything. He just kept staring at me then the dance floor. I was not just going to sit here all night long waiting for him to make a move.
I made a move to get from the booth when I felt his hand on my arm. Before I could look up, I felt myself being pulled to the dance floor. Edward pulled me close to him and started swaying. There were no words spoken, we just danced to the music. The beat was fast but we moved slow, almost to our own music.
"No one should be dancing like that with you except someone that knows how to move with you."
Edward pulled me around to face him. I risked it by looking up. I saw a fire that had not been there a few moments before. I was about to ask him if he felt he could keep up, when I felt his lips crushing mine.
It felt as if time stood still. Everything seemed to melt away. I kissed him back with a passion I didn't know I possessed.
"Wow, Edward. I thought that you wouldn't...I mean I saw her and thought...she is prettier than me..."
"Bella. Follow me." Edward pulled me to follow him. We grabbed our stuff from the booth then made our way outside. I nearly crashed into Edward near the car when he spun around and pulled me to him.
"Edward, what are you..." Before I could finish asking why he was in such a rush, he had spun around and pulled me into another smoldering kiss.
This kiss seemed to be better then the last. I leaned closer trying to get more of him. My hand made their way up his back, holding on tightly. His hand was in my hair while the other was on my back holding me tightly to him. I pulled back to breath yet stayed close, with my head resting against his.
"Bella. I don't know what you were trying to say back there but it was hard to keep my hands off you."
"Edward, I don't want to make problems with you and Lauren. I'm sorry if..."
"Bella, what are you talking about? Why would my kissing you ever be a problem? And why would Lauren care?"
"I saw the two of you today. She was all over you, grabbing your arm, laughing, and walking you to your car. I just assumed that you made a mistake asking me out and..."
"Hey. I am not with Lauren. I work with her father. I had dinner with him for work two weeks ago and she was there. I was simply being kind. There is nothing going on with her and I. Is that why you changed our plans?"
I looked down from embarrassment. Great. We made it to one date and already I was the clingy girl. Think, Bella, think! How do I fix this?
I was internally beating myself up when I felt a hand on my chin. Lifting my eyes I looked up to see Edward staring at me expectantly.
"I'm sorry. She is horrible and verbally attacked me today! Then I walk out and see her all over you. I just assumed she had gotten her claws in you before I had a chance to...I'm sorry. I should have just asked you if we were still on. I just didn't want to..."
"Bella. I wouldn't have asked you out or kissed you if I didn't want YOU. You don't see yourself properly. I wanted to get to know you. That is why I asked you out tonight. Then I see you dancing with another man, dressed like that. It took everything in me not to rip his arms off for even touching you. I feel very possessive of you."
I smiled. I didn't know what to say, so I pulled him close and kissed him again. Just when I was ready to jump him, I heard a honk of a horn. It alerted me to the fact that we are still standing in the parking lot of the club.
"Wanna get out of here?"
Edward smiled. "I know just the place to go."
