Chapter 5
I leaned in and kissed him full on the lips, he deepened the kiss. We were like that for who knows how long until I sensed someone else was in the room with us. Turning with a start, I almost fell off the chair.
The little girl that I thought was cute but Edward didn't like was back, she was standing very close to me, almost too close. Before I fell on her, I caught myself. Edward's face creased with worry, I patted his hand and whispered in his ear.
"I got this Edward," I made my voice sweet and tried to be alluring.
I pushed myself back from his body, while he nodded his head.
"Hello," I spoke to the little girl.
"Miss, I was wondering, would you like some rolls," her tiny mouth pulled into an easy smile, "You must be hungry."
I started to shake my head yes, but Edward stopped me, "No, she'd be fine, we'll wait for her food."
The girl pouted, her eyes pleading with me to disobey my boyfriend. Like no way in hell.
"I guess I won't, sorry honey," I threw a long glance at Edward as I said this.
He just rolled his eyes.
"Okay, I'll be out with your food as soon as it gets done, ma'am," she curtseyed, her dark hair flowing over her enchanting blue eyes for a second.
Then she left the room, and Edward rested a hand on mine.
"Why couldn't I have any rolls?" I asked, wanting to know.
"Because," he simply stated.
Looking out into the beautiful sight of the ocean below me, something that Edward said was bothering me, "Edward, earlier, you said that the girl was having inappropriate thoughts about me? What do you mean by that? What are they?"
"Bella, it will probably cause you to lose your appetite if I tell you," he turned my face to his.
"No, I won't, I have a strong stomach. Well, except for blood, but anyway. Tell me," I ran my fingers over his nose.
"I'm telling you-" he started but I quickly gave him a kiss on the lips, "Fine," he changed his mind.
I waited for him to start, "Okay. The little girl, her name is Lenya by the way, thinks you're pretty. I mean really pretty, as in goddess pretty. I'm not saying you're not, because you're are more than gorgeous but, she thinks it in an unnatural way. I don't like it one bit. That's not even the disturbing part, either. Lenya, wants to poison you, then um…"
"Edward! Stop with holding stuff!"
"And feel you," he squirmed uneasily in his chair.
"You mean, what I don't understand," I wrinkled my nose, "'Feel me?'"
He sighed, "As in, every curve, every little part of you. Like I want to do, sick!"
"Like a gay person?"
"No! not like that, like she wants to steal your body. That's why I'm here, protecting you I mean. As if I would ever leave you anyway," Edward fingered my ear then, used his lips to caress my neck.
I have to say, it made me feel a lot more comfortable, not that the chair didn't, but the whole thing about the little girl Lenya and my body…
"Bella, are you all right?" he brought his head so his lips were level with mine.
"Don't worry, all I am is hungry," I muttered, giving him a smile.
My eyes followed his as they sparkled to life, trying to get me to get my mind off what we just discussed. A loud boom on the door coming from outside of the room made me lift my head up and turn it to the door where we came in. Edward used his hand to push me back in my chair when I made an effort to get up and he went over to the door. I raised my eyebrows in surprise when he opened the door and Emmett and Alice came rushing in.
"Bella, Alice had a vision," Emmett declared while he was quickly was at my side, sas was Edward.
Edward already having read Alice's mind, Edward picked me up and started to carry me out of the door. Emmett blocked the way, his huge shoulders took up all the room.
"Not this way," Emmett stated, flexing his massive muscles.
"What? How come?" Edward rolled his head on his shoulders and focused on something, "Oh that's why."
Emmett sighed and rubbed his own head for a quick second, "Yeah that's why. The window?"
Alice butted in, "You know what? We need to hurry or-"
Lenya appeared by some still unseen door, with the waiter.
"Miss, You're leaving already?" she spoke, her voice silky.
It was like she was trying to make me stay here, the air got tight, making it hard to breathe. Gasping for air, I tried to tell Edward that, but my voice wouldn't go. So all I could do was slap his face, because he was talking to Alice and Emmett in all-to-fast whispers. He was surprised, but looked down all the same. I pointed to my mouth and again tried to use my ability to speak, but still it didn't work.
Edward shook his head and handed my over to Alice. I was cradled in her small arms perfectly, just as I had been with Edward. She smiled briefly at me, then glared over at Lena's small form.
"You!" Lenya gasped, taking in that there were two new other people in the room.
Alice point to herself and the girl nodded, "Put her down!"
Emmett growled, as did Edward and Alice, it made me feel even more loved. I put both my hands on Alice's stone arm and squeezed. It wasn't enough to hurt her, like anything could anyway.
Edward reached for the girl, but the waiter smacked off his hand.
"Don't touch her, you know the agreement when you made a reservation here," the waiter said in a booming voice very much unlike the voice he had used before.
I looked to Edward, who had moved protectively in front of Alice's form holding me, while Emmett was on the other side, doing the same thing.
Emmett laughed, "From Edward told me, he has every right to rip her to pieces!"
The waiter only shook his head back and forth.
"You're so pretty Miss, you shouldn't be with these monsters," I flinched at the harsh word that Lenya used, it didn't seem to faze any of the three Cullen's, "You should come with me and have fun," she coaxed my with her big blue eyes.
Alice whispered into my ear, "Don't listen to her Bella! Cover your eyes and close your eyes!"
Not wanting to question her, I took my hands from her arm and plugged my ears with my index fingers and clasped my eyes closed.
I heard growling and hissing from Edward and Emmett. Though, Alice stood still, not saying a thing. Wondering why, I peeked open one eye. She was crouched, I didn't even feel her do that. Alice was eyeing up Lenya in a peculiar way, I tilted my head to get a better view of Edward advancing towards the waiter and Lenya. For some reason, the tight air spaced out and I could speak again!
"Edward, I'm hungry," I stupidly said, like the dumbo that I am.
"Bella," Alice groaned in my ear.
Edward did the same thing, I guessed Emmett rolled his eyes.
"See, let her stay and eat, you bastards!" Lenya screeched at my friends, my family.
"Oh, Hell no!" Edward roared so loud it hurt my ears.
"Can't I just have a bite?" I pleaded with my eyes fully open now, staring at the beautiful blue of Lenya's eyes.
"We're leaving now!" Edward boomed, and nodded to Alice.
It must have been some sort of signal, because Alice tucked my underneath her arm, just like that first time with James and ran over to the window. It burst into tiny pieces as we flew down to the sandy beach below. I couldn't even feel the landing, it was all so smooth. Then Alice ran, fast and hard, to the end of the beach. Edward and Emmett had followed behind, scanning the area every two seconds for something.
Once we came to a complete stop, I asked, "What was that all about? I'm hungry, too."
Darn, I had to go and be stupid again.
Something that I never thought Edward would do, he tucked a a white stem of freesia behind my ear. I thought he would be mad at me and when did he have the time to grab flowers? My god he is perfect!
"We'll get you some food in a little bit, you think you can wait?" he asked, taking me from Alice's arms and putting me on the sandy ground.
"Yeah, I'll wait," I grumbled.
"Emmett, get the car," Edward placed both of his hands on my shoulders, "It's in the alley.
Alice chided, "Be careful, Edward, don't ruin the dress."
Somehow, Alice had watched the dress and made sure nothing happened to it while she was running with me.
Emmett had already left, I guessed to go get the car. It was a nice day, aside from the always cloudly sky. It didn't matter, I was with Edward. That girl, Lenya, didn't seem to want to do me any harm. That's just my judgement of her though. Edward's mind reading powers sure do come in handy.
We heard a honk of the car and Alice winked, running off to the car. I was afraid of them getting caught, being vampires and all, but obviously they weren't.
Edward just picked me up, without asking, and sped with me in his arms, "Sorry you didn't get to eat."
"That's okay, Edward," I didn't even have time to close my eyes, we were there at the very tip of the road.
Good thing no one was there or there might have been some explaining to do.
"Can we all fit in there?" I bit my lip, wondering.
"Yes, it will be a tight fit, though," he shrugged and set me in the front passenger seat.
I turned to see Emmett squished together with Alice. Emmett looked uncomfortable, not because he was so close to her, but because it was a tight fit. Ouch. Rosalie sure won't be happy about that! Or so I thought. Actually, it sparked a thought in my brain.
"Why didn't Jasper or Rosalie come with?" I tapped the side of the door, Edward got in the car after circling it slowly, checking for something.
"Uh…" Emmett didn't want to answer.
"Well?" I pressed the matter.
"Jasper went hunting," that was Alice, sounding sad, "And Rosalie…"
Edward sighed he started the the car, "Bella, let's get off that subject."
She still didn't like me.
"That's nice," I muttered.
"Rosalie is just trying to get used to the idea of you being human and around us," Emmett assured me, Edward growled at him.
Edward grimaced as he looked over at me, "Watch your thoughts, Emmett!"
I knew what Emmett was thinking without being able to read minds. Not even wishing to bring it up, I changed the subject, "Where to now?"
"We're almost there!" Alice exclaimed from the back seat.
"Keep quiet," Edward flashed me an easy smile and I felt my heart jump.
By the laughter that filled the tiny green car, I knew that they could hear it too.
I crossed my arms and looked out the window. Since we were in town, he couldn't go too fast. That was wonderful for me, terrible for them. At this, I started to chuckle. Now they had all stopped and was looking at me weird.
"You can't go fast!" I pointed at the speed-o-meter, then to Edward and kept laughing.
Edward put on a pouting face and made me laugh even harder. At least until he stopped in front of a playhouse.
"What the heck is this?" I asked as he opened my door.
He went human pacing doing it, too, I was just a little stunned.
"Bella, could you please get out? We have to, too," Alice gently nudged my seat.
"Oh, sure," I got out and Edward put a arm around my waist.
While the others got out, we went up to the ticket both and Edward pulled out four tickets, "We have advance tickets," he said to the lady behind the counter.
"Where are your seats?" she looked bored, she was reading a magazine.
"In B1," when he said this, she looked up and was in awe of Edward.
I smirked smugly, because her face was like everyone elses when they saw Edward for the first time and even after that, too. It didn't matter, Edward said he would always love me, so I took that.
"Okay, you can go on in," she pointed to the glass double doors, "Take the stairs to your left after that, there will be a door that says B1 on it."
"Thank you," Edward smiled at her, dazzling her for a moment, then walked to the glass doors and opened one for me.
Emmett and Alice was behind us, Emmett told the awestruck girl, "We're with them."
If before the girl was stunned, now she was bouncing off her chair. Who wouldn't if they saw a big musclar boy and a small pixie-like girl, both flawless in every way.
Inside the building, red carpet was all over, the stairs to our left was covered with it, too. A golden chandlier hung from the ceiling. Green ferns and other plants were everywere, making the inside smell somewhat like a forest. There were wooden doors open in front of us, showing rows and rows of red seats and a stage. I began to go in when Edward pulled on my arm.
"Did you forget were we go already?"
"Oh!" Shoot, I was making a total idiot of myself today!
Edward tightened his grip on my arm just a little, not enough to hurt me, just enough to tell me to move with him.
"I'm coming, geez," I snapped at him and shot him a evil glare.
He pulled my close into his chest, I calmed down and the mean streak left me. Actually, he decided that I wasn't going to walk up the stairs, whether just because or the heels, but he picked me up in his arms and Alice and Emmett led the way up the stairs. Why did Edward think I was a little baby? I had had the cast gone for two months and he can't seem to let it go. Crazy vampire.
The door in front of us had a big gold B1 on it, Alice opened it and went in.
Emmett wait for us to enter before he did, I waved to him "Thanks."
He shook his head and grinned.
The door led to a balconey above the stage, so you could see everything without having to lean over. I liked it, the four chairs weren't like the ones in the ones below us. They were big, looking like huge new huge lazy chairs. I stuggled under Edward's grip, because I wanted to sit in one.
"What?" Edward looked down at me, I motioned to my body I his arms.
I had to raise my eyebrows to make my point, "Is there any possible way you can let me down?"
He grumbled something under his breath, way too fast for me to hear and set me down.
When he did, I nearly tripped while running in a frenzy to get the chair that was second to last on the right side, "Bella!"
Alice caught my arm and I heard all of them sigh. Then Emmett started laughing hard and loud, I guessed that people outside could hear him too. Edward cocked his head to one side, snorted, then laughed along with him. Thank goodness Alice didn't start in, she came to sit on the other side, the end, by me once I sat down. Finally, the joker twins stopped laughing, about five minutes later! I just scowled at Edward when he came to sit by me, he kissed my whole face to make my forget. It worked, I was dazzled again by the lovely eyes of his. Damn he's good.
The lights in the theater dimmed, making my hyper-sensitive to where Edward was.
"Edward, what play are we seeing?"
"The Nutcracker with a modern twist."
"But it's July!"
"Haven't you ever heard of Christmas in July?"
"Okay, at least that makes sense!"
He quieted me, using his hands and eyes.
The music began, not the usual stuff either, like rock music. I instantly settled in into the already wonderfully comfy chair and watched the curtain come up.
Was it good? It took me forever, not really, but I was in a rushed flurry. That means that I was typing super fast, but made too many mistakes and had to re-check it before I posted it. (my word, you-no-usey!) Which, by the way, I'm sorry for all the past mistakes!cries I want reviews or you don't get the next chapter! Ooo…I'm withholding information! If you want it, review! Uh, as for it not being up soon enough...my computer is stupid and dumb as heck! I wish I had a vampire here to fix it and make me all better! (i.e: a cute one too, not a one that eats humans! The vamp could fall in love with me too! Never let me go-o-o-o-!) wishes for the impossible Thanx to all! Ta ta for now!
