I'm surprised at you all! Only 1 person knew what the shocking thing was. Or maybe more of you knew and just didn't put in in your review. The person was 21Melody08!7HockeyStarVampireObssessed7 guessed also, but, alas, it was correct.
Haha. I like saying alas. It reminds me of Dumbledore off of Harry Potter. I used to be obsessed with Harry Potter. But then I read Twilight… Harry Potter is still awesome, though.

Bella
Edward cornered me after school near the gym. "Bella?" He said. "Can I talk to you?"
"Sure, what's up?" I asked sitting on the floor. He sat next to me.
"Umm, well… how's school going for you?" He asked me.
I raised my eyebrows. "Good," I said slowly. Edward nodded. "That's good.
"How about you?" I asked him.
"Oh, its going pretty well," He said nodding. We sat in silence for a few minutes, then I asked, "What was it you wanted, Edward?"
His eyes went wide. "Oh, well it was actually nothing, really. Bye Bella!" He said walking away, leaving me thinking about what it was that he wanted.
I really wanted to find out though, so I got up and started running towards where he left. I found him speed walking to the parking lot. I tackled him. Ha-ha Edward. You got tackled by a girl. Ha-ha.
"Edward what did you want?" He looked alarmed. "Are you going to keep me like this if I don't tell you?"
"Yes." I said. He shrugged. "I will give you a black eye if you don't tell me. He knew i was capable of doing so.
He closed his eyes and took a deep breath. Bella…will you go out with me?"
Wow. I wasn't seeing that one coming. It must've taken a while for me to answer because he sighed, opened his eyes and said, "Look Bella, it's okay if you don't want to. I mean I'm-"
"Yes. I will go out with you."
"Really?!" He asked.
"Really." I said.
He smiled a very cute, crooked smile. "Thank you, Bella."
I nodded. "Your welcome, Edward." I got off of him.
"So where and when are you planning this date, Edward?" I asked.
Edward sucked in a breath. "How about this Saturday at 8:00?"
"Sure," I nodded.
"I'll pick you up and we'll go to the movie theatre. Is that alright with you?" I smiled and nodded. I was doing a lot of nodding today.
We walked out of the school into the parking lot.
"Bye Edward," I called to him as he got in his Volvo with Alice, still standing in front of the school. He smiled and waved.
A few seconds after he drove off, I decided to go get in the Jeep, surprised it was still there. One time in Phoenix, Emmett and Jasper left me behind at school on purpose when my English teacher held me back after class to tell me about this bad grade I got on a test.
I had to walk the whole 27 miles home from school. And it didn't help that we weren't allowed backpacks at the school we went to for fear of somebody bringing a gun to school so we had to carry everything. What a day to get homework in all 7 classes! I tortured Emmett and Jasper for weeks after that. 27 weeks actually.
"What held you up?" Jasper asked as I got into the Jeep.
"Edward asked me out." I said waiting for the storm to come.
"WHAT?!" That come from the both of them. Then they started ranting about how I'm too young to date and how they were going to strangle him and how he already had a girlfriend. I'd forgotten about that.
As soon as we got home, I went upstairs to my and Jasper's room with Jasper and Emmett trailing behind me still ranting. I lay on my bed and got out my phone.
"Edward?" I asked as he picked up. Emmett's and Jasper's ranting intensified. "Let me talk to that little-"
"Hey, Bella." Edward replied. "What's all that noise?"
"Oh, that's just Emmett and Jasper. I told them about you asking me out. Don't worry though. They wont hurt you."
"That's good," Edward sighed.
"But, uh, yeah. I called you because I wanted to ask you something Edward."
"Ask away then Bella," Edward said. The word geek immediately came into my mind for some reason.
"Okay, yeah. Don't you have a girlfriend, Edward?" Emmett and Jasper hushed.
"Yeah, we broke up two days ago, though," Edward said. "We just wanted different things."
"Oh, okay then Edward. I just wanted to make sure you weren't…you know…"
"Cheating on her?" Edward finished.
"…Yeah…" I said. Edward laughed a beautiful laugh.
Wait, did I say he laughed a beautiful laugh?! What is wrong with me?
"Well, I just wanted to know Edward. Thanks. Bye."
"So what'd he say?" Emmett asked.
"They broke up two days ago." I said.
"Oh. Well that still doesn't change the fact that you're much too you to be going on a date with Edward!" He said. Jasper nodded. I sighed and got off of my bed.
I stood in front of them. "Look, guys," I said. "I know I'm younger than you and you feel very overprotective over me, but I'm 18 now. I'm legally an adult now weather any of us like it or not. So I should at least be able to go on a date. It's not like I'm going to a bar."
Jasper nodded. Emmett looked conflicted. "Please, Em?" I asked looking at him through my eyelashes. Emmett rolled his eyes. "Fine, but you had better not be going to any bar until you're at least 32."
"32, Emmett?" I said.
"Fine, 29." We laughed.
"GROUP HUG!" Emmett shouted. I always wondered why he had to yell that.
But it was moments like these, hugging my brothers, that I was grateful that I had them, grateful to be with them.
"Now who wants to go climb trees outside? Jasper asked.
Yeah, those moments never lasted very long.

Another chapter. It's getting close to the end guys. About 9 or 10 more chapters then it's through. I'll try to stretch it to 12 or 13 chapters if you guys be extra good and review.
And also RangerRainbow and crazy4jacob, I'll try to keep your reviews in mind while I'm writing the next chapter.
And there was this one anonymous review from someone named dude. It was asking what I was wearing…? Yeah, kind of entering the creepy zone… But when the review was sent to me, I was wearing purple stonewash jeans, a plain black shirt and some black, blue and white Metallica Chuck Taylors.
