Hello everyone!!! Really quick quesiton, i'm in a book slump. I cant seem to find any good books! Please help me. Either review with a suggestion or PM me pretty please : )
Ok so this chapter's got a little bit of drama, please dont shoot me!! It's not the big ones like Edward and Bella fight, They break up, Bellas depressed, they go 6 months and dont talk then realize that their fight was stupid and that they still love each other drama. None of that'll happen. Besides Bella's strong and if they do fight or something bad happens my Bella character wont let it get in the way : )
Anyway other then that, i want to say thank you to all my lovely reviewers. If i could i would kidnap Edward clone him and send one to all of you!
Oh and i'm still working on chapter names and songs so bear with me. Dont know if i'll do it yet but i would still love your suggestions on songs since i love music tons and tons lol.
Ok now i'm done so....... Read on!!!
I walked in with my mom and sat down at my previous table with icky Vicky and ecstatic Eric. My mom motioned for me to come over and sit with her, but I declined. I liked my table it had character.
Ok no I lied, I didn't want to sit at my table. I just didn't want to sit anywhere near Terrible Tanya. I wouldn't be responsible for my actions if I happen to cause her bodily harm.
"Bella what happened to your face?!" Ecstatic Eric exclaimed.
"Fell in the toilet." I mumbled. I chose to ignore him for the sake of my sanity. Icky Vicky was still staring at me. It was downright creepy. Bleh.
"Ok now that we have the meeting back in the swing of things." Mrs. Newton said cheerfully. "We'll start with the job distribution.
"Oh fall off a bridge." I whispered under my breath.
I started tapping my foot as I waited for my name to be called, Stupid Swan being at the end of the alphabet.
Alice had already been called, her job was to run the I'm a little princess stand. If I had that job, I would rename it to I'm a gonna puke stand. I laughed at my joke. Wow I'm pathetic.
After another ten minutes, my name was called. I held my breath, come on give me a good job. Come on! For once let luck be on my side.
"Isabella Swan, first shift face painting." She said, "Second shift kissing booth. That will be all, remember to meet next week here to help set up the carnival. Have a safe and merry day!"
"Huh? Wait did she say kissing booth?" I turned asking Eric. Someone pinch me. He shook his head up then down, and I knew I was doomed.
I felt someone walk closer towards me. It wasn't alice, her steps would be much lighter and I wouldn't know she was there till she scared me half way to china.
"You sure did Bella." I knew that voice, that horrible nasty voice. It was the voice that made babies cry, the voice that made nun's curse. It was the voice of Mike Newton. Figures momma boy would have her make me run the kissing booth. That little ass wipe.
"Go away mike." I growled at him.
"No, not yet." He smiled, his smile made me feel like there was no more happiness left in the world. "So you want to practice on me?" He asked slyly.
"What practice murder?" I asked him.
"No, Bella kissing. Do you want to practice kissing?"
"No thanks I'm pretty sure I'm good at that."I smirked at him.
"Do you want to put that to the test?" He asked leaning towards me. Ew his breath smelt worse then what his face looked like. I started backing up but unfortunately there was only so much room when your backed up into a table.
"I think I'll be the only one to test how good her kissing skills are thank you." A smooth velvety voice said raining down from the heavens. My personal knight in shining armor said pulling Mike away from me.
"Yeah he will be, no don't make me practice something else on you. Even though if I did do it, I would be doing the world a huge favor. No beat it." I growled at him.
"Ha chicken." I said turning toward Edward. "Thanks don't know where I would be without you." I said punching him in the shoulder. He smiled down at me.
"You would be on your way to the hospital for treatment of the vile Newton curse." He laughed then suddenly stopped and looked at my face. Shit I knew he saw the scratches. Aw crap.
"Bella what happened to your face?!" He exclaimed, he kept opening his mouth. He reached his hand out to brush the back of his hand across my cheek. I closed my eyes and leaned into his touch. The usual electric current was passing threw me, it was oddly comforting. It was like I had been searching my whole life for my other half, but as soon as Edwards leaves I lose that part again. What did that mean? Was I falling for him.
Nah.
I just met him this cant be love. Can it?
He looked at me questionably, oh yeah I had to answer his question. Well I couldn't say, 'Edward I got in a fight with some psycho girl.' Or 'I jumped some girl for being a snob.' Which to choose which to choose?
"Bella?!" He said slowly cupping my face and bending down so we were eye level. "Bella what happened."
I quickly snapped out of my silly thoughts of love and answered him. "I uh fell in the toilet." I smiled up at him.
"Fell in the toilet huh? Now tell me do I have stupid written across my forehead" he asked.
I looked away from his eyes, trying to lower my head but couldn't since he still held my face in his hands. "Urgh! Fine, I got in a fight happy!"
"Why would you get in a fight at a carnival meeting for charity?" He asked laughing.
I scowled at him, and pulled myself away from him. I started to walk out toward the doors.
"Bella wait! I'm sorry it was funny!" He laughed running up to me grabbing my arm and turned me to face him. He looked down at me and gave me a pout that put Alice's to shame. How can I deny that face anything! Look at it, his green eyes filled with sadness and his full pink lips in a kissable pout. I bit my lip trying to restrain myself from jumping him.
"Fine, fine! Jeeze you Cullen's and your pouts." I huffed. He smiled at me, his adorable crooked grin that made my heart stop. Wow I sound like a love struck teenager. You are a teenager. The small voice in the back of my head said. Pull it together Swan.
"Ok now why did you," He laughed, "Get in a fight at a carnival meeting?" I rolled my eyes at him. Oh lord.
"I had a 'run' in with some snob named Tanya." I said grimacing at just the name of her. What I didn't expect was for Edwards face to lose all it's color and him look like he was about to commit murder.
"Tanya did this to you?" He growled.
I just shrugged my shoulders, "Yeah so? I did a number on her too." I laughed she probably had a broken nose courteous of Bella.
"That doesn't matter." He said still angry and he didn't seem to be calming down anytime soon.
I was about to reach out to him when I heard the second worst sound in all my years other than Mike Newton. Oh no this had to be worse than him. It was Tanya the snob.
Terrific.
"Edward!" She squealed wrapping her arms around his shoulders kissing him on the cheek. I could feel the anger in me rising. Who does she think she is?
"Tanya." I said nodding my head at her to make myself known. She smiled at me and went back to talking to Edward. I leaned on Alice's car waiting for one of them to tell me how they knew each other. Wasn't it five seconds ago that he looked ready to kill at just the sound of her name? Or maybe that was just me misinterpreting what I saw? Probably me just me seeing things wrong.
"So Edward how do you know Tanya?" I asked since neither of them was going to tell me.
"Oh you don't know?" She said with fake shock. Grrrrrrrrrrrr.
"No sadly I don't, that's why I'm asking." I smiled at her. She glared at me.
"Well me and Edward go way back." She winked at me then turned toward Edward. "Don't we Edward?"
I looked at him, begging for him to deny this and saying that it was a lie. My heart was counting on it. "Do you Edward?" I asked looking at him. He looked at me, and then looked at Tanya.
He opened his mouth, then shut it, then opened it again. It was like he was trying to find the right words. I could take that they had a history together. What I couldn't take was being lied to and them still dating. That I couldn't take, and I knew my heart couldn't either. I had just realized that I was beginning to like him, maybe even love him. No not love. Not love.
His eyes told me a different story, "We do go way back Bella, we uh, dated for a while off and on."
"But it's off now, right?" I asked trying to keep the hope and sadness out of my voice.
"It was off when I left. I met her once for lunch when I came back that's it." He said trying to make me believe him with his eyes.
Then Tanya did her shrill laugh causing me to flinch. "If by lunch you mean going out to eat then before our food came going back to my apartment, then yeah that's it." She smiled at me.
"Oh." I said, and then Alice came out and unlocked her car. Bless her. "Oh, hey Edward. Tanya." She said her voice getting cold at the sight of Tanya. I guess I wasn't the only one that didn't like her.
"Hey Alice." Tanya smiled at her.
"Well I'm gonna go with Alice, so I guess I'll see you later Edward." I said turning to open the door.
"Bella wait! That was one night; it was before I met you. Please don't go." He said sadness written all over his face. I felt my heart wrench at the sight of it.
"No, its ok I get it. It was before you met me, really I do. I'll just see you at the office tomorrow." I smiled at him taking his hand off my arm. He just stood there as I got in and we drove away. I saw out of the rearview mirror, that as soon we pulled out she threw herself on him. I smiled as Edward threw her off him and marched over toward his car.
I wasn't mad at him, was I? No it was before we met. But that didn't stop my heart from hurting. I just hope that he didn't come on to me as soon as he left her.
I mean it's not like we're together anyway.
Right?
