Bella

"Woo!" I heard people cheering and clapping. I completely forgot about the others. Damn. Edward and his hotness. Wait. Where did this all come from? Hotness? Player kept running through my head over and over. I pulled back and saw a confused look on Edward's face. Great now he'll hate me. I started crying thinking again this was just another one of those players who's going to break my heart after he gets what he wants. Sex. The only thing I ever kept from Rosalie or Alice was that I actually fell for a player 3 times in my life and I am not about to make it four now. Yeah. Three players in a row. I didn't tell them because they'd think I was a fool to fall for a player and get my heart broken three times. I wasn't planning on making Edward number four.

I ran upstairs while crying and slammed the bathroom door. I locked the door and leaned against the frame. I slowly slid down making my butt hit the floor which me cry harder because it hurt. After three seconds I heard pounding and yelling at the other side of the door. Alice was crying and Rosalie kept panicking and asking me to open the door.

"Bella !! Open this door!" I heard Jasper yell at me. I never heard him yell before and I winced.

"Bella ! Are you okay? I'm sorry. I should not have done that." Edward said frantically.

"I'm fine guys. I just need time to cool down. I promise I'll explain." I said in a frosty voice knowing they could hear me. They started whispering back and forth to each other and I heard footsteps on the stairs. Which meant they were leaving me alone to figure out some things. Edward. He was the issue. No. I was the issue. Why Can't I control my actions when I am with a cute guy? Cute? Ugh. I think I have Edphobia. I laughed at the corny new word.

I heard a screeching sound but ignored it. I hopped into the tub white filling it with water and lots of bubbles. When I'm depressed or sad I take a bubble bath because they distract me somehow. My sisters thought I was kind of loony for that, but hey! It's my guilty pleasure. I didn't bother taking my clothes off so I just hopped in, totally getting my dress soaked. If I stood up, the dress clung to my skin, making my boobs look tight and bigger.

I heard the screeching sound again, but thought it was our neighbor who loves to do yard work. I closed my eyes and laid my head up against the tub frame. After what was about 2 minutes, I heard more whispering downstairs. Why were they still whispering. I heard someone giggle which was new because none of my sisters ever giggled. I chuckled imaging Rosalie giggle.

I opened my eyes and there was Edward looking at me with a pained and confused expression. Behind him I saw our window opened all the way and snorted. He was like a peeping Tom. I stared at him for a couple of seconds.

"Bella. .I'm sorry." HE whispered. He was still talking about the kiss and I knew he regretted it.

"Edward don't be because I didn't regret it. I understand if you-" I was cut off my him interrupting me.

"You Don't regret it?!?" He asked smiling and looking shocked.

"No I don't but I understand if you do I mean I know-" I was cut off again by his wonderful angelic voice. AH ! Stop !

"No. I don't regret it at all." He beamed. Okay. He seemed happy. Congrats I thought sarcastically. I looked down and started playing with the bubbles. I heard a splash and I saw Edward in front of me looking straight at me. Not my see through rack or my lips but into my eyes.

"If you didn't regret it then why did you get upset, start crying , and lock yourself into the bathroom?" He asked me sincerely. He seemed like he actually cared. I smiled internally.

"I. I was just confused. I mean I had a lot of experience with player and I mean a lot. They all ended up breaking my heart, ripping it to shreds, and leaving Rosalie or Alice to pick up the pieces. I just didn't want that to happen again. I looked him in the eyes and he had a pained expression painted on. He Didn't say anything so I continued.

"Do you know why my sisters and I always hate it when guys use stupid pick up lines, or try to hit on us?" I asked. He shook his head no and so I continued.

"It's just a mask. We've been through too many bad relationships to go through with it all over again. We don't let people in unless we honestly believe that it'll work out." I finished.

"SO what about Sky, Revin and Taylor?" He asked while hissing each name. I gulped but answered anyways.

"I guess we were wrong about them this time." I laughed it off, but it was more of a nervous laugh. Talking to Edward felt just right and he actually listened to me. Shocker.

"So the entire reason you even came up here in the first place was because you felt if we started a relationship.. That I would break your heart and leave you forever?" His voice got a tiny bit angry when he said that, and I got a little scared. I pursed my lips hopping there wouldn't be an outburst.

"Yes." I said slowly and cautiously. I closed my eyes and laid back again. I sighed and thought what might've happened if Edward here wasn't a player at all. Sometimes I wish that because he has a deeper side than just the guy who hookups with girls then dumps them. Hump and Dump as they called it.

"SO what if I told you I've changed?" He blurted out suddenly which made me snap my eyes open and stared at him wide eyed. He was being serious. I snorted. Like that really could happen.

"I m dead serious Bella. I wasn't with one girl since we all went to the mall that day. That day I felt something between us. I felt a connection. I was going to tell you but Skyruined it." I chuckled for some apparent reason. He looked at me questioningly but I just shook my head and said, "Never mind."

"So what now?" I asked him. This was beyond confusing.

"Well we could go out?" It sounded more like a question than an idea. I froze and he saw my discomfort. "Do you not want to go out with me?" he asked with his facial expression turning into hurt and panic.

"Um. Well I don't know." I confessed to him, hopping he would understand the situation I was in." I mean I know I really like you because I've been having weird thoughts about you. I mean when you walk into the room, I can't help but stare. When you talk it sends shivers down my spine. When you laugh you seem so carefree and different from this Edward. I just want to know. Now I am just asking this hypothetically. Would you leave me after you got what you wanted from me like, like sex?" That's what my number two player did. I cringed at the thought.

"Well if we were to have sex, then no I would never leave you after we have had sex. I wouldn't leave you at all." He explained his answer to me and I seemed satisfied but wasn't so sure.

"Yeah well you say that now what if months from now another girl comes by and you feel tempted or something?" I asked him waiting curiously for his answer.

"I only see you Bella. All the other faces are like black and white, but you. You are in color. You stand out in my life. I don't even want sex from you. When the time is right well them maybe. I don't want to take advantage of you like some other guy would do. I know everyone knows me as a player but it's just a mask like you. I only do it so no girl could take advantage or use me again for my looks or to get her ex boyfriends jealous or something. I know the real me is down here somewhere." He said adding the last part in only a whisper.

"I m glad you shared that with me Edward, but I can't just put my self on the line again." I said in a whisper. He was bound to get aggravated now.

"Are you saying you don't trust me?" He asked obviously irritated.

"Well I can't exactly trust you after what you did to girls in the past. Bt mostly I just can not trust myself to go back there and date another player." I said in a soft and sad tone.

"I just explained to you everything and I promise I've changed." He calmed down and pinched the bridge of his nose. I think he did this when he got really truly angry with something.

"I believe every word you said Edward, but-" I couldn't finish the sentence.

"I guess time will prove itself." he smiled my favorite smile in the world. His famous crooked smile. I laughed along with him. We stared at each other for who knows how long until I felt his strong and warm tongue in my mouth. I was taken back at first, but I took control after that. He stood up not breaking the kiss . I pushed up against the round edges of the tub to bring myself about three of four inches shorter than him. He opened his eyes and slowly pulled back. He stared at my dress for a moment and smiled a crooked smile looking so seductive.

"You should dress like that more often." He whispered into my ear. I shivered by the contact and he chuckled. I slowly got out of the tub and into the shower. We stood there together for what seemed like 20 minutes. With our clothes on might I add. This was it. I was officially in love with Edward Cullen.

We began the make out session that lasted the whole shower. I broke the kiss and looked down. I was clean of bubbles and so was he. I bend down a little to turn the faucet on while he moaned. I smiled , but knew he couldn't see it. I grabbed two towels and handed one to him. He took off his shirt and I headed for my room. I went to the drawers and pulled out a large men's tee which was gray and tight. I pulled out a pair of Sky's basketball shorts from when he slept over the other day. I handed him the clothes as he changed in the bathroom. I took off my dress in my room and hung it on my balcony hopping for it to dry. I heard giggles downstairs and began to get suspicious.

I threw on a midnight blue silk sleepwear that ended 4 inches below my waist. I shook up my hair making it look even sexier. I made my way downstairs when the bathroom door opened and Edward came out in a tight tee shirt. I gasped at the sight and he looked up and chuckled.

"Like the view?" He asked while laughing. "Come on let's go downstairs." We walked hand in hand downstairs and I couldn't help but smile at the sweet gesture. Maybe he did change his player ways. I walked into the living room to see my sister Alice sitting on Jasper's crotch with her legs by his sides. She was smiling down at him while his eyes were closed and his hands were behind his head. What the fuck ? I noticed they were on a Twister mat.

I looked for Rosalie and she was no where to be found. Neither was Emmett. It would be quite cool if they got together. They looked good together. Wow I think she'd kill me if I said that to her face. Or not !?!

I walked into the kitchen to find Rosalie and Emmett sucking tonsils on the counter top. I stared wide eyed. How long where we gone?

"Wow!" I whispered to Edward who led me to the dining table.

"I know. Emmett keeps talking about her 24/7. He really likes her and don't worry. HE told me that he thinks she's the one. And would never hurt her." he reassured me

"What about Jasper?" I asked suspiciously. If he ever broke my sister's heart I would-

Edward saw my face and put a hand on my shoulder. I instantly calmed down. Now my sisters..

I went to Alice and Jasper first since they weren't as busy. I pulled Alice off of Jasper and he whimpered from the loss. Alice just shouted let me go. I took her to the foyer and freaked out.

"What the hell Alice?" I asked her as she put a hand on her hip and stared at me like I was the one in trouble.

"Don't give me What the hell Alice. We all heard you and Edward moaning in the bathroom. Out of curiosity what were you two doing in there?" She asked while smiling evilly at me.

"Oh. Nothing.' I said playing innocent.

"Uh huh Sure." she said avoiding my gaze.

"So what about you and Jasper?" I asked trying to get some answers.

"Oh well while you two were busy upstairs we got bored so we decided to play Twister Moves. I ended up falling on Jasper completely. Like lay down all the way. I started giggling and we got talking. He told me about how he became a player and that he would stop for me. It was just so sweet. We sat there and Rosalie and Emmett disappeared somewhere. So what happened with you?" She explained. I admit it was sweet.

"Well Edward came in while I was in the tub with my dress on playing with bubbles. He explained to me why he turned into a player and he said he changed for me and how time will just make me believe him. Oh. And did I mention we had a make out session in the shower" I added with a smile.

"Oh my gosh !" she screeched.

So far this day was going perfect for Alice and I . From what I saw before Rosalie looked like it was a good day for her too. I explained to Alice what I saw and assumed. We immediately walked into the kitchen to find them still kissing so I gave Alice the signal and we both pulled Rosalie off who was yelling and shouting like Alice before. I mean I would to if someone dragged me away when Edward and I were in the moment.

We brought her to the games room and sat her down in one of the bean bags. I took the green one while Rosalie was in the yellow one and Alice in the pink.

"Okay Rosalie spill." I ordered.

"Alright so when we saw Alice and Jasper getting all close and stuff, Emmett and I decided we should leave them. So we walked into the kitchen and I sat down on the countertop. He was silent for a while and he just blur out, ' Rosie, I really like you and I want you to know that I've changed my player status for you.' We just started talking and somehow we ended up kissing. I think I may really like him back." She confessed while biting her lip.

Alice told her side of the story and after I told her mine. She thought it was romantic how we were in the tub together. We went back to the living room to find Edward sitting on the love seat. Emmett on one of the couches, and Jasper on the floor with a blanket.

I skipped merrily to Edward and sat on his lap. I kissed him near the corner of his lip, his nose, his forehead. Anything but his lips. I heard him groan and he smashed his lips onto mine. That's when the war started for who would take control. Apparently he won. I broke the kiss and saw Jasper cuddling with Alice and Rosalie's back pressed against Emmett's chest. They were on top of each other watching the TV screen. I couldn't help but to think, this is how it's ought to be. I cuddled closer to Edward. I didn't want this night to be over. Alice was apparently thinking the same thing because she shot up from her seat next to Jasper on the floor and boomed, "Let's play truth or dare.."
