Disclaimer: I do own a copy of Twilight; however, I don't own the actual rights to said book … :(

I'm so sorry this chapter has taken so long to write, not only have I had a crazy school week, with little free time, but I had to go to the hospital! Turns out I have MRSA (don't look this up, it's gross… seriously) and I've spent many hours in the past few days in the ER facing my fear of needles (HORRIBLE!) … so that's been keeping me busy, trying to get better and all. But good news, the medicine is working, so I should be all better in no time! Anyways, I doubt you really care … I just felt like I needed to explain why I haven't updated for a while. Oh, another random tangent, according to my poll on my homepage, my story is being read from EVERY continent (well obviously not Antarctica) but all the others … I personally, think this is quite amazing!! ANYWAYS … This chapter is dedicated to VVastedtime, and Hakumele (thanks again for the advice!) hope you all enjoy!


Chapter 19: Will You Have My Babies Kind Of Kiss

BPOV

"Hello, my name is Shelly, I'll be your waitress today, what can I start you off with to drink?" our waitress asked.

"I'll just have water," I said, measuring her up. So far every restaurant that I had been to with Edward had a waitress who flirted with him shamelessly, and although Shelly was older then the others, she was still beautiful, making her dangerous.

"Coke, please," Edward said, flashing a smile.

"One coke and one water coming right up," Sherry said, professionally and to the point – no flirting involved.

"I like her," I thought.

"Why do you like her?" Edward asked.

Had I just really said that out loud? I felt my face redden, "No reason." I said, hoping he'd drop it.

He eyes me suspiciously but thankfully changed the topic, "What are you going to get?"

"Chicken nachos," I answered without having to think. They were my favorite food in the entire world, and with extra cheese, they were to die for.

"Those are good. Mind if we split?" Edward asked, amused by my enthusiasm for the nachos.

"Of course not, they are very big. I don't like the jalapeños though, so can we get them on the side?" I replied

"I don't like them either, we'll just ask for none." He said, smiling a perfect half smile.

"So," I said once we ordered our food, "Are you enjoying being back home?"

"I am very much, it's nice being with you too." He said, looking up at me nervously.

My heart skipped a beat, what does that mean? I opened my mouth to reply when Edward's phone vibrated.

"Go a head and pick it up," I said, somewhat relieved that it gave me a couple more minutes to think about a response.

"Hey man," Edward said into the phone, "It's only 11. Why are you up so early?"

Edward paused, listening to Nick speak while I thought of a response.

'It's nice being with you too,' seemed to lame, 'Yea, I'm having a good time too," seemed too casual, and 'I'm having an amazing time' seemed to extreme, although it was true. My thoughts were interrupted by Edward's voice "Totally forgot about the time change, but um, Bella and I are at Barnacles if you want to come over with the gang."

Everyone was going to come over? I thought. I hardly got any time alone with Edward, I frowned. When Edward looked at me though, I smiled, "Say hi to him for me."

Edward did and he said that Nick said hi back. Shortly thereafter our food came and a few minutes after that our friends.

"Aw, they are sharing the same food," Emily said happily.

"Hey guys," I said, trying to hide my blush.

"Hi," they said, sitting down after Danny and Matt moved the table.

We all talked for a little bit, when I said I had to go to the bathroom, and of course all the girls followed.

When we were washing our hands, the talking started.

"So, Bella," Emily said, "I think Edward is a little jealous."

I looked at her confused, "What? Why would he be jealous?" I looked at Courtney and Kelsey who both gave me disbelieving looks.

"You're kidding, right?" Courtney asked.

"Um, no?" I said.

"Really Bella," Kelsey said, "How oblivious can you be?"

"Very, I guess?" I answered the rhetorical question.

"Have you noticed anything strange about Danny today? Or yesterday for that matter?" Courtney asked.

I thought. Well he had acted fairly strange when I first saw him again, and he was acting somewhat strangely today, but he was just being friendly. "I guess?" I said, knowing that was what they wanted me to say.

"You guess?" Kelsey exclaimed, "Bella he is so into you."

I could see by my reflection in the mirror that my face was now bright red, "W-what makes you think that?" I stuttered.

"Hm, I don't know, maybe the fact that he has been starring at you all afternoon and that he sat next to you, and he called you beautiful yesterday?" Kelsey said.

"He's just being, being friendly." I said, shaking my head. Danny could not like me, it just wasn't possible.

"Right," Emily said, "Friendly." She rolled her eyes.

"He is," I repeated, "I'm dating Edward, he knows that," I said, keeping up with the lie.

"You know what they say, you always want something, or someone, you can't have," Courtney said, winking.

I narrowed my eyes, "I don't know about that," I said, thinking about how much I wanted Edward, even though I 'had' him.

"Bella, Bella, Bella," Emily said, shaking her head while drying her hands, "Just you wait and see."

"Alright," I said, drying my hands too and walking towards the door, "I'll just wait and see I guess."

I opened the door and walked back towards the table, "Hey, did we miss anything?"

"Nope" "No." "Not at all."

The guys all said at once. I looked suspiciously over at Edward, who only smiled innocently back "Okay".

After we finished our meal we headed over to the gaming area. The room was about the size of a normal gym, with black walls with neon signs all over the place. In the back of the room there was an air hockey table where two boys were currently playing and at the right end of the wall were two car racing rides. My eyes then drifted over a little more to the right where I saw the DDR game.

Since I lack any type of coordination DDR was about as close as I had ever gotten to actual dancing, and usually I managed not to trip or make too big of a fool of myself while playing.

"We need quarters," I said, walking up to the coin machine. Just as I was about to put my 5 into the machine, a hand grabbed my own, a hand I would recognize anywhere.

"I'll pay." The velvety voice said.

I turned around and smiled up at him, "Thanks." I said, and then looked over at Danny who was coming over towards me, "Are we supposed to be acting coupe-ly?" I asked Edward, trying to fend of Danny.

"Good idea," he said while the machine spitted out quarters. He quickly collected up the quarters and kissed my hand, "Here you go, love" he said, dropping the quarters into my now tingling hand, "Go have fun. I'm going to go pay the check real quick."

I nodded, too stunned for words, and walked over to the DDR machine.

"Did he just kiss your hand?" Emily asked.

"Yea," I managed to say. He also called me 'love'. I wanted to say, but couldn't find the words.

"That has got to be the most romantic thing I've ever seen!" Emily giggled. "I wish I had a hot boy to kiss my hand. And look at you, you're in a daze."

"I am not," I said, shaking my head to clear my thoughts.

"Oh, but you are Bella, you've fallen for him – hard." Emily said simply, and walked away.

I had fallen for him, I'd fallen fast and hard and irrevocably for Edward Mason.

"You going to play that?" Danny asked from behind me. "Or are you just going to stand there frozen like that?" Danny laughed.

"Oh, no, I'm going to play," I said, smiling up at Danny.

"Mind if I join you?" he asked.

"Well-" I started.

"-It'd only be for one game, what's the harm, right?" Danny asked.

"I guess," I said, "Let's start."

I put two quarters into the slot and the game came to life. We decided that I would have the top two arrows, and Danny would get the back two. The music started playing, and the screen became filled with arrows and soon we were hitting the arrows that corresponded to the machine.

I bumped into Danny a few times, since the game mat was so small, and he laughed.

"Watch were you are dancing, Swan." He said, jokingly.

I laughed, and tried not to hit him again.

"Having fun?" A voice I'd recognize anywhere asked.

I looked over at Edward briefly before looking back at the screen, to make sure I didn't miss any arrows. "Edward, hi! I'm playing DDR! Look!" I said happily.

"I can see that," he said, not sounding happy.

"Yea, I'm helping her win," Danny said.

"How kind of you," Edward replied, not sounding happy at all.

"Winner" the machine shouted and I jumped up in joy and before I thought about what I was doing, hugged Danny.

"I knew you could do it, Bella." Danny said, brushing some of my hair back that had gotten in the way.

"Not without your help," I said.

"It was all you," he touched my cheek, causing a blush to spread over my face. He did like me as more then a friend, I thought, not good.

"Don't I get to congratulate the winner? My girlfriend." Edward said, still angry.

"Of course, Edward," I said, and hugged him tightly.

"You were amazing," he whispered into my ear, causing me to shiver.

"Thanks," I said and almost before I had a chance to finish the word, I felt Edward's lips on my own. He pulled away quickly and gazed into my eyes. I searched his eyes for a sign, a signal, anything to let me know he wanted to continue the kiss, that it wasn't a mistake. I slowly moved my arms so that they were wrapped around Edward's neck, looking at him the entire time, and kissed him lightly.

I was happy when he started to kiss me back, gently at first but quickly becoming more passionately. He moved his hands down my back, pressing me closer into his perfect body, until they rested on my lower back.

I continued the kiss until I was out of breath, I touched Edward's face and he pulled away. I didn't remove my hand at first; I just stared into his eyes, studying his face, trying to engrave this moment into my memory forever, wondering if he thought the kiss was as amazing as I did.

Emily's voice snapped me out of my dream like state, "Wow, who knew you were both so competitive about DDR?"

I looked again at Edward, "Yea, who knew." I said.

Emily was about to say something when my phone started ringing. I looked down at caller ID and saw Alice was calling me.

"I have to get this, I'll be right back." I said to Edward and Emily, and walked away still dazed.

"Hello?" I said.

"Isabella Marie Swan," an angry Alice said into the phone, "Why have you not called me?" she asked.

"Didn't I just talk to you last night?" I asked.

"Yes, yes you did. And do you remember what you told me last night missy?" she questioned.

I blushed, "Yes…"

"So how do you expect me to live," she said stressing the word, "Without knowing what happened when you talked again? I've been waiting anxiously for the story."

I rolled my eyes and walked out of the restaurant to give myself more privacy, "Well, it was awkward I apologized for walking in on him, he accepted and then we watched a movie."

"That's it?" she asked, sounding disappointed.

"Yep," I said, "Sorry there isn't a better story." I laughed.

"So nothing else weird has happened between you guys?" she asked, almost knowingly.

"What? Why would you ask that?" I said.

"I don't know," she said, "Why, did something happen?"

"Well-"

"Ohmygosh! Something did happen!! Isabella Marie Swan, tell me this instant," she screamed into the phone, excitedly.

"I was going to tell you before you interrupted me," I told her.

"Oh, right, sorry, I just got a little excited, please continue." She said.

"This is really recent news, in fact you just called right after it happened, literally not even a minute after this occurred." I began.

"What occurred? What happened?" Alice asked. I could imagine her sitting on her bed, bouncing up and down, waiting for an answer.

"Edward kissed me," I said, "Not just a peck either Alice, a rock my world, life changing, will you have my babies kind of kiss."

She screamed, and I had to hold the phone away from my ear.

"Still alive over there?" I asked.

"Bella! Ohmygosh, I don't even know what to say. I'm speechless, ME!" she said, and then screamed again.

"Killing my eardrums over here," I said, holding the phone away from my ears again, "Alice, it was the best kiss of my life, and I have no idea what to do about it."

She stopped screaming, "What do you mean you have no idea what to do about it?"

"Well, technically we aren't even dating, we are just pretend dating," I said.

"Then stop pretend dating and start real dating Bella, honestly that isn't rocket science." Alice said. "And before you say 'What if he doesn't like me like that?' Because I know you were about to, he does, he kissed you, he brought you on this trip, he came up with the idea of you fake dating. So he obviously likes you Bella, so go get your man!"

"Go get my man?" I repeated, incredulously.

"Yes," she replied, "Go tell Edward you want to be in a relationship with him, a real relationship."

"Alright," I said, "I will right now before I loose my nerve."

"Good, go get him Bella." She said enthusiastically, "And please call me afterwards so I don't have to sit around for hours wondering how it went." She sounded exasperated.

"Alright," I giggled, "I will, wish me luck."

"Good luck, not that you'll need it." Alice replied.

I hung up the phone and walked back towards the doors to tell Edward that I was ready to date him, for real.

A/N: So sorry again for taking so long to update, I woke up today feeling a lot better then I have in a while, so ideally I should be back to normal soon. I have my final for English tomorrow and my AP Stat exam on Tuesday, so don't expect an update before then, but after that (assuming I don't get sick again) I should be free to write! Please review … they say laughter is the best medicine, but I think reviews are! :-D
