Chapter six: movies and racing
Finally, it was the weekend. No school for two days. Sleeping in, staying up late, going out till the morning were my kind of weekends.
My mother came rushing in my room waking me up around noon. I tried slapping her away but she kept shaking me to death. She even started yelling in my ear to get me awake.
I sat up, glaring furiously at my mother. She grinned and pulled on my arm, taking me out of my warm bed. My butt hit the floor hard and I screamed at Kelsey. This woman was begining to become insane!
"What the hell mom!" I screamed standing up. My butt was in pain.
"I'm sorry honey but some people are at the door for you," She said pointing out of my room.
I rolled my eyes. "Tell them I'm sleeping,"
She laughed. "Its a very cute boy. He said his name is Edward. And the girl is named Bella,"
All my pain and anger I had towards my mother, and sleepiness escaped from my body. Bella and Edward were here at my door. I couldn't be any happier to be out of my mothers hair today.
"Let them in, I'll be out in a second," I shoved my mother out of the room.
First I had to get dressed. I dug all around in my closet for something to wear. Checking out my window, I noticed it was raining. A chance for a sunny day again was hopeless.
I pulled on a pink tight, off the shoulder long sleeve shirt, a black tank top underneath, and black jeans. My usual peace necklace hung around my neck, but this time, no bracelets.
My hair was a complete mess so I grabbed my brush and started working on the snarls. Next I grabbed my makeup bag and mirror and headed out into the living room. They wouldn't mind if I chose to do my makeup around them.
My mother was feeding Edward and Bella some crackers when I made my appearance. Bella grinned as Edward nodded.
I sat down in the chair, placing my makeup on the coffee table in front of me. Kelsey left the tray of crackers on the table as well and left to her room.
"What's up guys?" I asked adding cover up.
"Just came to see if you were busy. Its a rainy day today and I was thinking maybe we could go to Port Angeles and see a movie," Bella suggested.
I nodded in agreement. "That sounds like fun. What movie do you guys have in mind?"
Edward spoke now. "The new Batman movie. The Dark Knight,"
"Awesome!"
When I took a closer look at Edward and Bella I noticed one thing. There outfits were matching! Bella wore a brown sweater looking very familiar to Edward's brown sweater. I laughed inside my head, not wanting to disrespect them by making fun of their wardrobe.
Again, Edward held in a laugh as well. I scrunched my nose up at him.
"What's so funny?" I started working on my black eyeliner after finishing the pink eye shadow.
"Bella and I are matching," Edward said, Bella smirked in response.
Me however, I was astonished. He seemed to read my mind again! Am I that easy to read or is he a crazy person? Not that I don't like crazy people or anything but if he was going to read my mind I wish he would tell me first! I happen to say a lot of personal and embarrassing thoughts to my self.
Like how I'm going to be all alone in the movie while Edward and Bella get to watch the movie as a couple. People call it a third wheel I think. Maybe if I asked them to invite someone than it could be like a double date but I would be with a friend.
Who could I invite though? Mike was an absolute no, he still freaked me out with the over friendliness. Eric was not attractive so he was out. What other boy did I meet in this town who is single?
Jacob Black. He could come to the movies with us. I wouldn't feel so alone and we all would have fun without excluding someone. You know its always better to have an even amount of friends or someone always gets left out. In this case, I would be left out.
Clearing my head I decided to ask a question. "Do you think I could invite someone to? Usually its better to have an even amount of friends than odd,"
"Do you have OCD or something?" Edward asked.
I glared. "No! Its just when there is an odd number usually someone always gets left out and-"
He cut me off. "I get it, sorry,"
Bella elbowed him in the chest. "I think that's a great idea. Have anyone in mind?
Yes actualy, Jacob. But you probably already know with that smile on your face. "Jacob,"
Edward growled at the sudden mention of his name. Bella squeezed his hand tightly, calming him down. He placed his fingers on his temple and breathed deeply.
"Guess not, huh?"
"Well they have a little history together. Maybe we can each sit on opposite sides of the theatre if you really want to bring him. You can go in your car and we'll take Edwards," Bella said, trying to make an effort. She looked up at Edward and he nodded.
"So I'll go and call him,"
Jacob answered after the first ring. He was delighted to know I was the one calling. I explained him the situation and Bella's idea. Just like she suspected, he was all for it.
Edward and Bella left early as I waited patiently for Jacob to arrive. It took him around five minutes to get to my house. He must have been speeding in his little rabbit of a car.
My car worked pretty good on the way to Port Angeles. I sped a little bit, making it just in time for the movie. Bella and Edward parked in the back, leaving a space for me to park next to them.
I payed for the tickets since Jacob wasn't old enough to get in yet. A few guys glanced my way as I slipped out of my jacket, hanging it around my arm. Jacob entwined our fingers together as he noticed the other men.
"Are you hot or something?" I asked feeling great warmth from Jacob's hands.
My question caught him off guard. "What you mean?"
"Your hands are like burning up!"
"Oh that," he paused for a minute. "I'm always warm,"
I nodded, not knowing what to say as we entered the theatre. Jacob found a seat in the back. My eyes scanned the many people, stopping on Edwards head.
I excused myself for a minute heading over to Bella. We exchanged a quick conversation. She headed back to my seat, greeting Jake before going back to Edward.
The movie turned out to be amazing! Joker ended up being my favorite character of the movie. He was so amazing and not to mention hot! They couldn't have picked a better actor to play his role.
Edward and Jacob were very calm at the movies. Not once did they bicker back and forth. Bella was so impressed with him. I was proud of Jacob too, even if he happened to shake violently at a few points they both did fairly well.
I hugged Bella tightly before we headed off to our cars. Edward shook my hand like usually. He seemed he only wanted to show affection to Bella.
"Can we hang out tomorrow Bella? Just us girls you know?" I asked as Jacob headed to the car.
She nodded. "Of course! Edward and I have plans for tomorrow night so we can hang out whenever you wake up,"
"Great, we can come back here to clothes shop,"
"Goodie," her sarcasm was very hilarious.
"Come on it will be fun. I promise,"
"Okay, call me when you wake up,"
We shared one more hug before departing. Edward gave me the honor of shaking his hand again. I don't understand why he was always freezing cold, it was very weird.
Jacob was leaning on the passenger side, waiting patiently for me. I jumped in the drivers seat starting the car quickly. For some reason I had the sudden urge to race Edward in his Volvo.
Bella waved as our cars drove in sync. Once we hit the red light to get onto the highway I revved my engine. Edward smirked, revving his engine. Bella's face was priceless, she gripped her seat belt as we sped off as soon as the light was green.
I slithered through the other cars, hitting at least eighty in speed. Jacob laughed as Edward started to dissapear in the distance.
Just as I thought I had him, he came rushing full speed, going at least on hundred! I slammed my foot on the gas pedal, switching gears continuously.
"Come on baby, you can do one more race," I soothed to my car as it screamed back at me as soon as I hit one-twenty.
Jacob rolled his eyes. "This isn't the first race huh?"
"Nope, I used to street race all the time in this baby. I feel like its dying on me though,"
"I know alot about cars and put my rabbit together, so if you want I can take a look at when we hang out again," he offered.
I didn't reply back yet. Edward's car was in my view. He slowed down, smirking in the rear view mirror. This gave me the opportunity to use my secret weapon.
The little red button on my steering wheel looked a little rusty. As soon I was up to his window, I waved pressing the red button, releasing the last of my nitrous gas in the trunk.
My Challenger sped off, leaving the volvo in the dust. I laughed to myself as I switched gears again. Jacob laughed with me.
"About your offer. That sounds good. As soon as Bella leaves to hang out with Edward I'll stop by your house," I re picked the conversation back up as soon as we arrived back in Forks.
"Sounds good,"
We arrived at my house quicker than suspected. Jacob knew it would be best if he got home, just in case his father needed him. I understood.
He idled his car as he stood between the seat and door of his car. I didn't dare go inside till I saw him disappear.
"Tomorrow were hanging out?" he asked. I could tell he really hoped I wouldn't bail on him.
"Of course, I promise," I assured him.
"Cool,"
Jacob still didn't move from his spot. Something was really bugging him and I had to figure it out.
I noticed a car coming our way. Jacob was about to sit down when I rushed to him, pulling him into a good bye hug. He held on to me tight, never wanting to let go.
"Thanks for coming to the movie Jacob," I didn't let go of his neck.
"Sure, sure," he shrugged dropping his arms from my waist.
Edward was now in my driveway. Bella looked scared as hell, jumping out of the car as soon as she could. Jacob drove away before I could give him something I wanted to really give him.
I grinned from ear to ear as Edward swore under his breath. Bella shook her head at the both of us. For some reason I knew she was going to yell at us for racing.
It seemed like she was used to him going fast, but the racing wasn't something she was into. Racing was unbelievably fun and there was so much adrenaline and your body feels like its going to explode! That's the excitement I love.
"You guys are crazy! The next time we take separate cars and you two pull a stunt like this I will slap both of you silly! That was the scariest thing I have ever experienced." At that sentence Edward shot her a glance that I had to question her tomorrow. "Next time us three hang out, were taking one car and one car only. My car!"
We both groaned.
"Your car is slow," Edward pouted. He was such a baby.
"Fine with me," I stuck my tongue out at Edward. My win was very satisfying.
He seemed to read my mind...again! "Wait till text time. I will win," Edward warned.
I laughed. "Your car has nothing on mine,"
"If I don't recall Challengers don't go that fast without a little nitrous," He knew my secret weapon.
"I hate you," I muttered.
Ha laughed entering his car. Bella stared at me, hugging me one last time before warning me.
"No more racing when I'm around,"
"Promise,"
She jumped into the Volvo, waving as Edward drove. I slipped inside, rushing to my bed before my mother could annoy me.
