Disclaimer: I do not own Twilight... BUT I am the mayor of I-Suck-Town. Feel free to come visit me.
I haven't really been in the mind frame to sit down and write a new chapter about our favourite devil: Jessica Stanley. But thanks for the messages and support that I've been getting from you guys. On that note, I will try to sit down and try to write more often but this new school idea? SUCKS.
It's been a while since an update so it might make a lot more sense if you read the chapter before it to refresh your memory!
"That's very ironic; that's exactly what I did the day you left."
Bella's POV
I could've sworn that my heart skipped a beat and my head swam a little bit. Why? I wasn't quite sure.
"What did you do when I left? Sat on the porch drinking hot chocolate? Isn't that a little feminine?"
"I see your sense of humour hasn't gotten any better." He said in monotone.
I made a face, "It's not like it's ever bothered you before."
"I guess it's because I've just gotten use to the humour of funnier people over the last two weeks. You know some hot girls like Tan and the rest of the cheer-leading team." Hello crooked grin, how I have missed you so.
"Well, I wouldn't know but you would know now, wouldn't you Cullen."
"Yes, I would."
"I'm surprised and kind of shocked that you're still here tonight. I would've expected you to be at Jessica or Lauren's house eating pieces of cabbage and sipping on diet, diet coke!" I said in a mocking tone.
"Maybe I would've, but my best friend came here for a sleepover today!"
My eyebrows shot up, "OH! We're still best friends? Really?! I would've never guessed!"
"Last time I checked, you were the one that left Forks without even telling me why."
"I told you why, it's not my fault you won't believe me!"
"I would believe it if your lying skills were any better." He rolled his eyes.
I stood up silently and put my blanket away on the barbeque, and walked towards the door until I realized that Edward was standing in my way.
I tried shoving him to the side, "Move it Cullen."
"Come on Swan, you can do better than a little shove. The soccer team is looking good by the way; no help from you... but you know what I mean."
I shoved him harder, "MOVE!"
"Alice cried for the first 2 days, like a little baby. She said you were going to make a new short best friend and she cried even harder when you didn't text her back." He said like it was the simplest thing in the world.
I tried shoving him harder but with no success and he smirked at me, "Emmett gained weight, not muscle fat... just straight old fat because there was no one there to play running sports with him. He's really upset about it. You know how hard he worked to get those muscles! He's getting a little saggy if you ask me."
My face was getting red from all the anger I was spouting, "Move before you find a knee in your groin!"
He laughed, "Did you know that Jasper has been using an internet chatting room to chat about his favourite books?"
He started laughing even harder at my meek attempt to reach the door handle, "Rosalie hasn't bought any celebrity magazines in the last week and a half; she's secluded herself from Hollywood! Isn't that just strange?!"
"What the hell do you want from me?!" I screamed.
"You know who it had the biggest impact on? The good-looking fellow with green eyes and copper-coloured hair. I think he was the worst off for a little while but then his friend taught him that if he's single, and that he might as well really enjoy it... and take advantage of the girls falling at his feet."
I rolled my eyes, "So it's my fault that you've turned into a whore and became cocky as hell?"
"More or less, I would think so!" he nodded his head as if to approve his statement.
I narrowed my eyes, "How in the world does that even make sense?!"
He laughed out loud almost hysterically, "Well, let's see! I tell my best friend how I felt and she runs away to Arizona without a legitimate reason! Then, I find myself alone in Forks surrounded by girls who have thrown themselves at me for years but this time around, there was no one there to set my head straight. Want to know why? My best friends all seem to have their minds elsewhere thinking about my best, best friend who was in another state! So whose fault is it? Yours."
"As much as I liked your rant there, Cullen; it's getting cold and I want to go back inside."
He pinched the bridge of his nose, "That's all you're going to say? I'm cold and I want to run away from my problems." He said in a mocking tone.
"Oh no, you're right! I should say something like, Oh Edward, please forgive me. I was being stupid and shouldn't have tried to save our beautiful friendship that we've worked on for 12 years. Screw that, let's date and see how much it can ruin!" I said in a high-pitched Jessica voice.
"Why does it have to be either/or? Can't we be friends while trying to see if the dating thing works for us?" He asked.
"Yes we could, but quite frankly, I don't see the point. So if we were to date, and break up, what's going to happen to our friendship? I'm not risking us Edward. I'm sorry if you can't see that but I'm doing this for the both of us because you aren't thinking about this long-term." Edward pinched his nose once more and stepped to the side.
I quietly opened the back door and stepped back into the warmth of the Cullen house. I put my cup in the sink and took a quick glance at the backdoor. Edward was sitting where I had previously been sitting and staring at the sky.
Whatever, I thought; he'll be hitting on a cheerleader by tomorrow morning.
Jessica's POV
If Edward Cullen was willing to make out with Anna the cheerleading and make out with a totally uglier version of me, known as Tanya Watson, why haven't I made out with him yet? WHAT IS THIS?! Shouldn't the hottest girl get to make out with the hottest guy? It makes like the perfect sense!
O.M.G – he's suffering himself by kissing Tanya so that I'll get the message and try to save him! I'd be like his guardian angel or something even more romantic! We would have a romance like those on T.V.! We're like The O.C. except we're both rich and Edward isn't from Chino – making it all the better. We're both way, like TOTALLY better looking than Marissa Cooper and Ryan Atwood! I knew God would want the prettiest people together to make some like... gorgeous babies!
Oh Jess, where do you come up with such great ideas to contribute to the human society?!
You are like SOO welcome, WORLD.
So I jumped into the driver's seat of my BMW and sped off to Lauren's house... like Marissa would do with Summer Roberts! Could my life be any more fabuloso?!
"Jess, you're never going to believe what happened yesterday! TROY WATSON LOOKED AT ME FOR A WHOLE 2 SECONDS. O.M.G., I KNOW!"
"Whatever Lauren, Edward gives me sex-eyes in class. I'm just waiting for that meet me in the bathroom note from him." I said in my seductive voice.
We chatted about our future men all the way to the school, and all I'm going to say is that it's not looking so great for Isabella Marie Swan any time soon. Both men pretty close to her, out of her life and dating the hottest girl and Lauren. Sucks to be you Bella!
"HOLY CRAP, BELLA! WATCH WHERE THE HELL YOU'RE GOING!" I dropped my currently open bag and all my books as did the all mighty Bella Swan.
"Shut your mouth and pick up your shit, Jessica." I was about to call her a stupid whore when I saw her iPhone on the floor next to my math textbook.
"Whatever, just don't like steal my stuff." I crouched next to my math textbook and accidentally picked up a piece of technology.
Bella quickly picked up all of her stuff and walked down the hallway to her class while I headed to my math class with a new piece of device that could FINALLY put Edward and I – the future best-looking couple EVER together after all these years of being apart! Kind of like Tiger Woods and his 11 mistresses minus the beauty part... right?
So I took my usual seat in the math class and took out Bella's phone. It was had a dull blue cover case and looked so... Bella Swan. Like... EW.
I tried opening the phone so I could text Edward until I realized that it was fricking like locked. Who in their right mind like locks their phone?!
When we were dismissed from math class, I still couldn't access her phone! I tried everything! 0000, 1111, 2222, 3333 and like other numbers but it wouldn't open!
Darnskies. I'm going to have to do this the old fashion way... through Mike Newton.
When the bell rang, informing us that it was lunch, I ran to Mike's locker, boobs bouncing and looking fabulous if I say so myself! Besides, who doesn't love the sound of heels clacking on the floor?
"Mike!"
"Yeah, hey Jess. Sup?"
"When's Bella's birthday? Don't give me that confused look either, I like totally know you know."
"I don't kn—"
"Don't even; it's vital that I know when her birthday is!"
"Why do you need her birthday?" I heard an unfamiliar voice and turned around to come to face with Troy Watson, the 2nd hottest single guy in the school.
"OH! Like, hi Troy! You like scared me!" I took this chance to lightly grab my beautiful boob for 2 seconds hoping he'd realize how great my new Wonder bra was.
He raised his Godly eyebrows as if to say, 'hey Jess, I think you're the hottest girl I've ever met. I'm going to go tell Edward what he's missing out on, make him date you and watch your kids for you guys when we all grow up together. If that doesn't work out, call me Jess!'
But that wasn't what we wanted to say to me this time around, "... Hello Jennifer? Why do you need to know Bella's birthday?"
I gasped and snapped, "It's Jessica; as in Jessica Stanley?!"
Troy looked at me with sex-eyes, "Right... why do you need Bella's birthday?"
Mike stepped in, "It's for the yearbook, right Jennifer?"
I took deep breaths to calm myself and put on a breath taking smile with my watermelon smelling lip gloss, "Yes, it's for the yearbook."
"Well, it's September 13th... anyways, I have to go. Good-bye Mike and Jennifer." He walked away from me and I couldn't believe he didn't know who I was. I'm like JESSICA STANLEY. How do you NOT know who I am?! I'm the most worshipped person on this campus and he just totally called me the wrong name and walked away from me before I could show him my butt... one of my best assets!
I made a note in my head because that's what all the smart kids are doing these days.
Troy Watson – Possibly a homosexual... I mean he didn't stare at my boobies when he had the chance and didn't even try to hit on me. No one passes up Jessica Stanley! NO ONE!
I walked into the cafeteria feeling a little lower than usual and walked to my table. I saw Bella at her table and kind of wished she was here so I could yell at that ugly new girl again. Damn it, things like this shouldn't happen to me, I get what I want!
"Hey Jennifer!" Mike shouted, and I was in no mood to put up with him right now.
Lauren started to laugh out loud and said, "Stupid Mike, it's Jessica... the girl that dumped your sorry ass."
I started feeling uneasy that Mike would ruin my reputation by telling people he dumped me so I spoke up and prevented the saying of things that should've never happened in the first place. I was going to be mature about this situation.
"Suck it Mike. He was probably just having on off day. Cute guys are allowed to have off days, but you wouldn't know anything about that, now would you." I smirked.
"Hot girls are allowed to show off their assets." I nodded and smiled in agreement and pushed out my chest a little bit, "Jess, if you know that, what are you doing in a push up bra and tight jean skirt? I said hotgirls!" He and some of the other guys just started cracking up as if Mike said the funniest thing in the world. HOW FRICKING DARE HE?!
No one talks to me that way! I am the hottest girl anyone's ever seen and they should respect that and just admit that I am hot, not make dumb insults that are like pure lies!
Why aren't any of my friends standing up for me?! I nudge Lauren and Kelsey's arms but they don't do anything. I stare at Angela who's playing with her pudding cup and ignoring the situation and I for the first time realize that his little insult has gotten the attention of a lot of other tables. I start to feel like panicky and I look next to me and see a strawberry slushie that Kelsey's been sipping on.
I purposefully drag my chair back as attention-grabbing as I possibly could and I give Mike the dirtiest look I could muster after one of the most like... terrible days, EVER. I grab the red slushie, took off the top and just splashed the liquid on Mike's face, while splattering on the guys next to him that were laughing.
"Stupid prancing bitches." I stormed out of the cafeteria with Lauren and Kelsey hot on my pink stiletto heels.
Just when I was about to break a nail by punching something, Lauren said, "Oh my gosh Jess, Mike like totally shouldn't of said that to you."
I turn on my heel to see Lauren jabbing Kelsey. I glare at her and about 202309582034958 minutes later, she finally says something useful.
"Yeah, like what Lauren said. Plus some extra care... and some like other stuff." She pops her gum and starts putting on lip gloss.
I roll my eyes and tell Lauren and Kelsey to get lost. I had some personal business to take care of.
I put on some fruity lip gloss, stick out my chest and walk into the nerd room like I was the shit, which I am!
"Eric," I whined in a really, really cute way, "I like need help with my new iPhone."
"W-w-what do you need Jessica?" I can have any boy at my feet, anytime of the day.
"So like, I just got my new phone... and I totally spaced out and forgot my lock coding thing."
"Ha-have you tried your birthday... Jess?" I've still got it.
"Could you please fix it for me? Get rid of that password thingy." I thrust Bella's phone under his pimply, oily, badly-in-need-of-a-facial face and wave it.
He takes hold of his phone, and stares at it.
He looks up at me through his thick black glasses and whispers, "Isn't this Bella's phone?"
Holy cheerleaders, this was not what I was expecting.
As I was opening my mouth to respond, he thrust the phone back at me as if it like burned his skin and said, "No Jessica. I am not helping you hack into Bella's phone."
"Naive little Eric. What good is saving her phone from me going to do for you? She's the girl that rejects you every dance and every date you ask her on. What's it going to matter to you?"
"I'm not hacking Bella's phone so you can leave my office."
"Eric, I can do you favours. Favours other girls will probably never do for you." I wink suggestively and hotly and give a little smirk.
He gulped and took the phone back in his hands.
Thank you, man hormones.
Bella's POV
"I CANNOT believe this." I sigh in exasperation and throw stuff around my locker for the 3rd time today.
Troy comes up beside me and smiles gently. I smile back but when his smile falters, I know my smile wasn't convincing enough.
"What are you looking for, Bella?"
"I think I lost my phone and I just..." I throw my math text book back in my locker and it makes a loud bang as it hits the back of my locker and lands with a thud on the ground.
"Have you checked your classes... or your backpack... or you pockets or..."
I run a hand through my hair and sigh, "Yes, yes and yes."
"Maybe we could uh... you know... go cell phone shopping after school... together." I smile faintly and close my locker.
"Sure Troy; it'd be beneficial for the both of us." When Troy's eyes turned in confusion, I laugh lightly and finish my thought.
"You need a cell phone and I need a cell phone so us going together makes sense." Troy nods in understanding and smiles.
Looking at me straight in the eyes, Troy says, "I'll pick you up at your house... at 5?"
I nod in agreement as he smiles and walks away.
His contagious smile leads to my lips spreading into a grin and as walk away to my next class.
Jessica's POV
"JENNIFER!" Who the hell is Jennifer?
"JENNIFER! JENNIFER!" This chick better answer before I get bitchy about her stupid ass name.
"JENNIFER SMITH!" Is she like that new Texas girl that I yelled at because Jennifer Smith doesn't seem like a familiar name..?
Someone taps me on my shoulder and I turn around and it's Troy Watson with his pretty little face.
"Are you deaf, Jennifer? I've been calling your name for the past 3 minutes!"
I snap, who the hell does he think he is calling me Jennifer?!
"It's JESSICA. I'll forgive you because you're like new to Forks High Senior High."
"Right, so I kind of lost my phone and I need to call someone. Could you please loan me your phone so I can call my sister?"
"I-I don't have my phone with me. I like not-purposefully left it in my car... this morning." I giggle cutely hoping he'll take it as the answer but he's like still standing here.
OH MY EDWARD, I get it now. He's trying to ask me out but needed an excuse to talk to me.
With the regret that I didn't reapply my lip gloss last period, I lick my lips making them look scrumptious.
"You're holding an iPhone." In total shock, I look down at my hands to see Bella Swan's phone in my hand.
"I-it's out of service. I like TOTALLY forgot to charge it yesterday."
"Cut the shit out, I know that's not your phone."
"It totally is so!"
"I know it's Bella's. Hand it over." He sticks his hand out for her phone but I can't bring myself to hand it over. I just had to do some dirty things just to get Eric to unlock it and to make sure he kept his mouth shut about it.
"It's mine, Troy!"
"Are you Bella Swan? No you're not. Give me her phone back."
"What's it to you?! It's not like she's your girlfriend or anything!" His eyes look away and I know I've like emotionally hurt him.
"Give me the phone Jennifer."
"IT'S FRICKING JESSICA OKAY?!" He starts to look around and sees random losers stare at us.
"Jessica, give me the phone before you make a scene."
"Why? So you can act like a hero for Swan?" His eyes roll and I laugh.
I speak up because this could be the beginning of a totally awesome new friendship.
"You want Bella, and Edward's going to be mine." He stares at me and I smile really attractively. I shouldn't flirt with him because Edward's in love with me... but I can't help that Troy's giving me sex-eyes!
"Troy, don't you see?! This is God's way of telling us to become friends so we can like help each other!"
"What do you mean by that?" Darn him for looking so cute while he's confused. DARN HIM.
"We can like... help each other get together with them and stuff." I'm fricking Einstein.
"You can help me become Bella's boyfriend?" He asked all confused.
"And you will help me become Edward's girlfriend." I smiled and after a moment of thinking about it, he smiled back.
"Will this work?" Dumb boy, of course it'll work. Look at my hot bod.
"Yes, it will. We'll make sure it does." Troy was silent for a while but he like really seemed to be thinking about the idea.
"Give me her phone, Jessica."
"Call me Jess and why do you need her phone? I just want to mess with Edward and Bella's relationship."
"Just give me her phone. Now, please."
"Are we going to do this or not Troy? We have to work together to like make this happen!"
"Yes we are, but just give me her phone back!" I sighed and gave him her phone.
"Thank you. Don't worry... We'll talk again tomorrow." He winks and walks away.
THIS, ladies and gentlemen, is the beginning of a BEAUTIFUL new friendship.
I swear, I will update sooner than I did this time. SWEAR.
Please review; I could really use the support.
Merry late Christmas and New Year, I hope your holidays were out of this world.
Love,
Julia.
