Return to Forks

Disclaimer: I don't own Twilight! =[

A/N. I think an Edward point of view is called for don't you agree.

Chapter 5: Camping with The Cullens part trois.

Jessica! I'd completely forgotten about her. I was too busy recalling that unbelievable kiss with Bella. It was my first kiss. Ive been on loads of dates with girls but the most I've ever done is a kiss on the cheek or the hand. I'm a gentleman okay. I don't know why I agreed to go out with Jessica though. She is one of the most annoying and self-absorbed girls I know. Bella on the other hand is something different altogether. After two days I know that she is shy, quiet and very caring but when she's having fun with Emmett she's a totally different person. She transforms into this funny, clever and sly person. The shyness fades and you can tell that she loves her brother very much but also loves tormenting him. when I thought of Bella, I started to think about our kiss again. Had she enjoyed it as much as I did? then I thought of Jessica on the phone. She was going to be a problem. I didn't know how to break things of with her but it would need to happen soon. I'd love to do it tonight but I don't want to do it over the phone. That's extremely un-gentleman-like. I just want to have Bella to myself and kiss her more. I get the feeling that she wouldn't mind too much.

"Edward baby! Are you still there?" Jessica's voice on the phone snapped me out of me daydream of Bella and I.

"Sorry Jessica, I zoned out there. What were you saying?"

"Edward, I was discussing the back to school dance with you. I was wondering if you had asked anyone yet and I figured since we are kind of dating that you'd probably take me." I sighed. I would really love to take Bella. I better not give Jessica an answer yet.

"Eh Jess, I'm sort of busy right now but I'll chat to you on Monday about this. Okay?"

"Eh yeah sure, whatever Edward." She snapped and hung up the phone. Why are girls so complicated? I sat there contemplating that for a few moments more and then decided to rejoin the group.

I stepped out and it was just Emmet, Rose and Bella in the main area.

"It's getting late so Alice and Jasper went to bed. I think Emmett and I will follow there example" Rose said before dragging a half awake Emmett into their sleeping area. It was just me and Bella now. Oh crap!

I was stuck alone with Edward right now and there was no Alice or Rose to save me. It's okay Bella. You can manage not to embarrass yourself for a few hours ... oh how I wish that were true. The silence between was awkward. Trying to break the silence between us I said the first thing that came into my head.

"So Edward. You wanna play twenty questions? You can go first." I want to know everything about him and I thought this could be a good game to play.

"Em sure. What's your favourite colour?"

"Emerald green" I said without hesitating. Why did I say that. He'll probably guess what I mean by it. He smiled slightly. Oh my god, he did know what I mean.

"Well what's yours?"

"Well it can change but right now it's red." Nothing unusual about that but from the way he was looking at me, I sensed there was more he wanted to say.

"Why did you move to Forks?" God I could be here forever telling him about why I moved.

"Long story short, my mum re-married and I didn't like him, besides I missed Emmett and dad. So, what do you do for fun, like what are your hobbies?"

"I love music. I play the piano and I write songs. I absolutely adore it. I'd be lost without my music. what about you? Do you like music?" I smiled at him, I could spend forever talking about music as well.

"I feel the same as you about music. I play the guitar and I write my own songs too. Music is my release. I have music for every emotion. whenever I feel sad, angry or whatever emotion I'll go to my room and write or simply lie there and listen. I'll put on my earphones and just get lost in the lyrics and the melody." I blushed then. I was rambling on about music and he was just staring at me with a look of amazement on his face.

"Wow I've never met anyone who was as passionate about music as I am. That's really cool. Listen Bella do you think that I could hear you play sometime and you could hear me play or we could even play together?" Could I let him listen to my music. I've never let anyone hear it before. I wanted to save it for someone who could really appreciate it but I think that Edward could be the one to appreciate it.

"That's two questions," I laughed. "I'd really like that, actually I'd love it. I've never played for anyone before so don't laugh at me if it's bad. I'd also love to hear you play the piano."

"Me, laugh at you? Never! Isabella I am shocked that you would say such a thing." He said pretending to be insulted.

"Okay, okay. My turn now to ask a question." I thought about and finally said "So ... who's Jessica?" In my mind I was slapping my head. What a stupid thing to ask. It's none of my business. He looked nervous at first and but eventually answered.

"She's ... a girl that I'm .... kind of dating but .. eh .. I don't think things are working out between us." Really? How very ... interesting.

"Really? Do you mind me asking why?"

"Well I think I might like someone else." He looked at me then and I felt my heartbeat accelerate.

"Oh really. Well that could cause problems. Why be with a person you don't like?"

"Exactly. But I don't know whether she likes me too. What do you think I should do?"

"I think you should ask her."

"Really, you think so? I'll keep that in mind so." He gazed at me then with his beautiful eyes and I had to remind myself to breathe. He started to move closer. Breathe Bella breathe. He put his arms on my waist and I could fell his breath on my face. On my God even his breath smelled gorgeous. He moistened his lips. Oh God, i don't think I can control myself for much longer. I need to feel his lips on mine again. He tilted his head and moved it closer to mine, never once breaking eye contact with me. All that was left between us was a tiny gap. I closed my eyes and waited for him to close that space. I heard rustling coming from the other room then and I heard Emmett enter.

"Hey you guys do you now where the bag of chips are?"

We jumped apart and I'm sure I was bright red. Aagh damn you Emmett Swan. I could kill you right now. When Emmett left the atmosphere was intense. I had so much too think about. I was certain Edward liked me too. But Jessica was a problem. I know he said that things aren't working out but until that's sorted I will have to distance myself from him. I do not want to be known as a tramp. Once Jessica is out of the picture then I can be with Edward. Until then we'll just have to wait.

A/N Don't you just feel like screaming "Damn you Emmett Swan!!" So read and review.

love you all
