A/N: Thank you all for your reviews and for adding my story as a fav! Updates probably aren't going to happen as often, because I'm really going to focus more on details in my story. And Bella totally rocks in this story, I know! Writing that part totally made her my hero as well!

And I forget to put this each time: I don't own twilight…dang

Chapter 6- Margaritaville

We finally got to Alice's place and walked through the door. The girls had already dressed into some pjs and sitting on the couch.

"Geez what took you so long boys?" Bella asked.

Once again we just all stood there. Finally Emmett broke the silence.

"Bella, you are sooooooooooo my hero now!"

She laughed. "Thanks Em."

Jasper and Em plopped down on the couch and I took a chair.

"I do have to ask Bella….won't he know you did it? Won't he probably press charges?" I asked. Everyone started laughing and I just looked at them like they were crazy. "Ok, what am I missing?

Rose finally answered after everyone calmed down. "Well Edward, Bella's uncle is a cop…chief of police actually."

Then Bella spoke. "When I introduced Jake to him, he did give him fair warning. He said if he ever did anything to hurt me, either he or I would get him, whether the act was legal or illegal." She laughed. "He scared the crap out of Jake!"

"But I guess Jake thought he'd never get caught," Alice said.

Just then Bella's phone rang and she looked at it. "Hmmmm looks like someone just found their new truck." She giggled as she texted him back. "Better remind him about good ole Uncle Charlie." She finished the text, set her phone down then looked at Alice. "Alright…time for movies and margaritas. Girls, let's get the drinks…boys pick the movie!"

The girls jumped up and went into the kitchen. Emmett went over to the DVD shelf and looked through the movies. I was in my own world, thinking about what I just saw Bella do. She was so strong, so full of life, so…beautiful. The girls came back in with pitchers of margaritas and six glasses.

"Wastin away again in margaritaville. Searching for my lost shaker of salt. Some people claim that there's a woman to blame, but I know it's my own damn fault," Jasper sang as he poured a glass. Everyone looked at him as he took a sip. He started back at us. "What? Just having some fun. Geez!" We all laughed.

We all settled into our seats as Emmett started the movie.

"EMMETT! Why did you pick a scary movie?" asked Rose.

"Because I want you to cling to me."

The other four of us rolled our eyes. Honestly the movie wasn't that scary. Rose and Alice thought it was and they would hide their face in their significant others' shoulder. What was funny though, was Bella laughing every time some got whacked.

"Shut up Bella. This is freakin' scary!" screamed Alice.

"Oh come on! This is so fake! How could this possibly be scary?"

I started laughing and Bella looked over at me grinning. The movie finished and I noticed everyone, except me had crashed. Not sure when that happened, but it did. Alice and Jasper were on one couch and Rose and Emmett were on the other. They had covers on them. Bella was on the recliner, curled up, and shivering a bit. I went into Alice's room to grab some more covers and pillows. I placed a pillow under Bella's head and the cover over here. I heard her sigh, and mumble something. It was to quiet for me to understand. I just smiled at her, taking in her beauty. Finally I laid down on the floor and fell into a deep sleep, dreaming of Bella.

Next Day

I woke up to some noise in the kitchen. I sat up, stretch and looked around. No one was in the room.

"Well it's about time sleepy head." Alice said behind me. "Come on, breakfast is ready."

I got up and followed her into the kitchen, rubbing the sleep out of my eyes. I saw everyone around the table…except Bella. "Hey, where's Bella?"

"Oh…she had to leave early. I think her aunt and uncle needed her home," Rose answered.

I sat down and started sipping on my coffee. I was sad I didn't see her before she left, but of course I knew I would see her again.

After breakfast I left to go back to my apartment. I was just about to start studying again, when I saw Bella's book on my desk. "Crap." I thought. I started looking for her number in my phone…only to realize I didn't have it. I looked up Jasper's number. It started ringing and he finally answered the phone.

"Hello."

"Hey man. It's Edward. Question, do you know where Bella lives. I have her book for class and I need to get it to her."

"I don't but let me check Alice's phone. She has everyone's address in there."

After finding it, he gave me the address. It was actually only a few blocks away, and since it was nice outside, I decided to walk over there. I got to her building and buzzed the intercom.

"Hello," answered a voice that did not belong to Bella.

"Um, hi, I don't know if I have the right address. I'm looking for Bella."

"And who is this?"

"Edward. I'm a friend over hers from school."

"Oh yes! Come on up."

I heard the door buzz and I walked up to the second floor. I knocked on the door and heard the same voice again yell for Bella to get it. The door opened and a stunned Bella was standing there.

"Edward…uh..Hi…what are you doing here?"

"I was bringing your book by. I hope that's ok."

She shut the door and stood in the hallway. "Oh yeah, cool. Thanks so much. I would invite you in, but I'm actually in the middle…of…spring cleaning. Yeah, and it's a mess in there." She laughed nervously.

"Oh no problem. I got to get back and start studying." I handed her her book and she smiled.

"Thanks Edward. And thanks for coming out last night for my birthday. It really meant a lot to me."

I smiled. "No problem. I'll see you later Bella."

"Bye." She walked back in the shut the door. I headed back outside and started for my place. I put my earphones in and turned my IPod on. Bella was in my every thought and it was kind of driving me crazy. I wanted to tell her so bad about that day, but I was scared she would think I was a weirdo. I enjoyed being around her so much. I wanted to get to know her, know everything about her. Especially now with Jake out of the way, I felt like we could get closer without him glaring at me every two seconds.

I only had two more weeks before the MCATS, and after that I could have some more freedom, more time to hang out. I started to get an idea, and called up Alice.

"Hello!" she sang.

"Hey. Listen I have an idea. Spring break is coming up in three weeks, and I thought we could all go somewhere."

"Hmmmm…that would be fun. The only thing is is that Jasper's sister is getting married the weekend spring break starts. We're flying down to Houston. The wedding is at College Station…but you know we could all go down, and after the wedding stay in Houston! Oh and go to the beach! And clubbing. Oh yes yes. I'm on it. I'll call everyone and get it going! Edward, you're brilliant."

I laughed. "Yeah yeah ok. I'll talk to you later." I hung up and walked into my building. So now, I had something fun to actually look forward to.
