What is Love

Chapter 5

The Game!

A/N – Before I start I want everyone to know that in Washington, during the summer, the sun doesn't normally go down until 10:00 – 10:30pm! (I live in Washington and when school first starts in Sept. it's really annoying when you can't sleep because the sun still hasn't set all the way when you are trying to sleep! Hope you enjoy!)

Last part of Chapter….4!

That can't be me. I thought. How could I look like this? I was looking at some beautiful girl in the mirror. Her hair was up in a high bun, but that was only the start.

Somehow Alice curled every part of my this girls hair and made it like the girl was going to a prom. Small tight curls flowed out of the bun resting on the girl's white neck. Also very small little braids rapped around her bun and down the side of her face. Who was this girl.

I looked behind me and to my right and left. The real Bella could never look like this….this….

I couldn't find the words to explain how the girl in the mirror looked.

When Edward bent over to my ear and whispered. "You look amazing." I realized that the amazing girl was me. That the girl in the bathroom mirror reflecting the image of unimaginably beautiful girl on the other side felt unreal and a huge mistake. Is there any possible way that somehow Alice turned me into a princess without even trying?

Edward could tell that I was truly shocked about the girl in the mirror so he took my hand and helped out of the bathroom and back into Alice's room.

"Alice, what did you do to me?" Her face fell as she got the wrong idea about my comment. "Alice, I look…..I look phenomenal. How in the world did you do this?" I pointed to my head.

"You like it?" Alice's face lit back up as she stood from her bed.

"Yes, but really….this doesn't look like me! How did you make me turn for the ugly duckling into….a swan?" I felt a gentle push from my back as I fell to the end of the bed. I looked up and saw Edward staring hardly into my frightened eyes.

How could she even dare say that about herself! Isabella Swan was always a swan, in everyone's eyes but her own. There was no way she could be anywhere near this ugly duckling that she had claimed. The thoughts of every boy in the school would and could for that matter, back me up on this one, even if their insufficient rotten thoughts were atrocious in every way, I still new that deep down the thoughts that described Bella were in every way correct.

I very gently, almost not touching her, slightly pushed Bella to the bed where I could get her full attention.

"Isabella, you need to understand something." I talked to her very slowly because I could tell that I might have frightened her. I paused and looked into her eyes. "Never, EVER say that about yourself…..you have always been more than just a swan to me and you always will be. You clearly must have bad eye sight or something! You are absolutely astonishing in my eyes, and sadly everyone's."

I didn't want her to be beautiful to everyone; I wanted her to just be beautiful to me. But it was very clear that all of the men in all four grades at the Forks High school thought the same as I did. I wanted to be the only one that felt something when I looked at her, not to be in a line filled with every nasty mined human in the school.

But did she feel the same way I did?

I could also hear the thoughts of the girls at the school. Their thoughts were not that much different then the thoughts about Bella. They thought that I was the most beautiful human being that they had seen; but they were wrong in every way!

I stared into his golden eyes. Hearing every word that came out of his mouth. But it still didn't make any since to me. How could he see something in me that I couldn't. I have always known that I was just an average looking girl. Why was he saying differently? I think he was the one with the bad eye sight, but after I thought of that for a second I knew that I was totally off since he had better eye sight then any human had!

I nodded softly agreeing to what he had said. It still haven't clear and stuck in my head but I knew it would make him happy if I agreed with him.

He helped me sit up and cradled me in his arms like a mother would to her brand new baby. He held me tightly but not to tight to the point where I couldn't breathe. He said something to Alice but I couldn't understand what he said since my mind was to clouded with thoughts that involved him.

He carried me down the stairs and into the large kitchen. When Edward placed me on one of the kitchen table chairs I could feel the coolness from beneath my Levi jeans. I could tell that no one had sat at the Kitchen table for a long time since there an inch thick of dust scattered everywhere, it made my nose tingle making me feel as if I had to sneeze.

Edward turned away from me and walked to a cabinet above the marble stove. He then started pulling everything that he could find out of the cabinet.

"What would you like to eat, Bella?"

"I'm not that hungry." I lied, and to tell the truth….I am horrible at lying!

"Bella, please don't be difficult. I can hear you're angry stomach from all the way over here! Now, what would you like to eat?" He had won again.

"Anything is fine, I guess. Just surprise me." I really didn't know what I wanted and what Edward had to eat since his family really didn't need to eat.

"Well, Esme just went grocery shopping so you can have whatever you want." He stared at me thinking about something.

I hated how his family always went through so much trouble to make sure I was feed!

"Um, do you have any macaroni and cheese?" I was in the strangest mood for something cheesy!

"Let me check." Just a second later, "Yes, it's right here. Is that what you want?"

"Yes please." Edward grabbed a pot from underneath his feet and filled it half way with water. As he turned on the stove I could see on his face that he became very impatient.

Edward stood hovering over the pot filled with water that wouldn't boil fast enough for him. He tapped his foot hastily and watching the clock that was hanging above the still water in the pot.

"Edward?" I asked.

"Yes?" He turned and faced me.

"It takes a while for the water to boil, come sit next to me." He looked back at the water to make sure it wasn't boiling yet, after 2 minutes, and sluggishly walked and sat down at the chair next to me.

"Be…." Before he could finish Alice scream out my name.

"Bella! Your Dad is calling! He wants to know if you are alright!" She was still upstairs but she yelled loud enough so I could hear her.

Edward ran and grabbed the phone and just as her put it down on the dusty table; it rang.

"Go ahead and answer it." Edward said.

It felt weird to answer Edward's phone but I did. "Hello?"

"Hello, is….Bella is that you?"

"Yes Ch….Dad, Edward has caller ID so he gave me the phone to answer, what's up? Why are you calling so late?"

"Oh, well I wanted to know if everything was alright? I didn't know you were going to spend the night with Alice tonight?"

"Dad, I left you a note on the table and I knew that you wouldn't be home for a few hours so Alice invited me to spend the night at her house. Was that alright?"

"Are her parent's home?" Charlie was always making sure that I had parental supervision.

"Yes, I need to go. Everything is fine…..Goodnight."

"Goodnight Bella." Charlie hung his phone up and so did I.

"Sorry. I think the water is boiling now." I pointed to the steam that was raising from the top of the small pot and clouding at the top of the ceiling.

"Good." Edward jumped up and poured in the box of macaroni and cheese.

Just minutes later Edward served me a plate of the most heavenly and delicious macaroni that I had ever had!

I eat it quickly every once and a while looking up to see if his stare ever loosened from my face.

When I was stuffed to death with noodles Edward finally let me be done eating. He made me eat three helpings.

I carried her delicate body again to the spot that Jasper was waiting for me for our Football game.

Her face lit up with beaming with sunshine rays and unforeseen happiness. She reminded me of a new puppy dog waiting for their new owner to play wit them for the first time. Instead of Bella's tail wagging she sat on the green grass slightly moving to a beat in her innocent thoughts. She moved patiently like the new puppy would waiting for it's own to throw the stick to play a game of fetch.

Bella watched me in an astonishment awe as I ran across the field back and fourth for an unnecessary warm-up. I only did it to get so Jasper would get a little nervous.

Why is he "warming up". We both know that he doesn't need to! He's probably just showing off to Bella. But should I try to warm-up? What if he will do better then me since he is doing all of that running and jumping?

"Ok Edward! Are you ready to loose?" Jasper asked.

"I've been ready! Let's get this over with!" I really didn't want to play this stupid game, I wanted to lay under the stars with Bella and watch as the fireworks that I ordered to blow up in the sky for her.

Edward ran to the field where Jasper and him started playing the football game. I had to admit I didn't know anything about football. I never enjoyed watching sports but I knew the basics to baseball because Phil played for one, and I was required to know how to play in Phoenix. Tonight there wasn't any breeze so my hair stood still as I sat and tried to watch as my boyfriend and his brother played.

I was very happy when I saw Alice running to me out of the corner of my eye. She had changed for some reason and had her hair up matching mine.

"Hi Alice." I said cheerfully.

"Hi Bella, I need to tell you something." Her eyes went from bright to plaintive. I saw her eyes go sad in a matter of seconds.

"What is it Alice?"

"I saw something. That you aren't going to be so…happy about." It seemed as if she didn't want to tell me what she saw but knew she had to.

"Just tell me."

"Edward isn't going to win this football game…..which means, it's their rules Bella. There's no way we can stop it." It suddenly hit me that she meant Edward would loose the game and have to wear….wear my bra!

"No! Alice I can't! That will be so….embarrassing. I can't do it." I stood up from the cold grass and wanted to run home. Running always helped me when I was stressed out or worried about something.

"Bella, it won't be that bad! I promise." She must had seen a lot more than Edward just not winning.

"Alice….but all I have is just a plain…white bra." I whispered very, very quietly. I couldn't even hear myself talk.

"It's alright, I saw what was going to happen a long time ago…."

"WHAT!"

"Will you let me finish!"

"Sorry." I let her finish her sentence as we both started to walk to her house.

YES! Another touchdown!

That was my 87th touchdown, now all I need is just two more and I would be tied up with Jasper.

I would've been winning but something caught my eye; causing Jasper to make two easy touchdowns, Alice came running out to Bella and told her something that made her very upset.

I tackled Jasper and grabbed the small metal ball from him and…..TOUCHDOWN! We had to use the metal football because the small weak one that everyone else would use for football would break every time I or Emmett would look at it!

I ran back again stealing the ball from Jasper and ran for the touchdown line….almost there.

I stopped.

Alice and Bella were walking back up to our house. Alice had her hand rapped around Bella shoulder showing her some kind of support.

Did something happen to Bella? Was she alright?

I was to busy watching every muscle in Bella's body move to notice Jasper running at full speed towards me.

He jumped on my back and snatched the ball and ran the opposite way.

He made the final touchdown…..Jasper had won!

"HA! What do we have here?...Or wait let me answer that for you….I just won! Yes….! Yess!" Jasper jumped up and down like a little kid that won a dollar.

"No fair! I wasn't watching! Something is wrong with Bella."

"She's fine, I'm sure Alice just saw me winning and told Bella that you would wearing her bra for the rest 24 hours.

He tour off Alice's pink bra and wrapped in around my dry head.

"Now, tell me Edward…..you have never lost at anything before, how does it feel?" I pushed him to the dirt ground and and ran to Bella.

"I ran to you're house about 20 minutes ago and got a nice one for you…..I didn't want you to be to embarrassed! It would be very hard for you and Jasper." Alice was so loving a caring it made my heart beat a little faster. At the same time she would be making me feel better about the situation and be watching out for her husband at the same time! She was a wonderful….Vampire.

"Thank you so much Alice! Which one did you get?"

"Here I'll show you."

She disappeared for a second and reappeared just as fast. She held up my only Victoria's secret bra. It was just a plain light blue with no design on it. Nothing like Alice's pink with small white checker lined bra also from Victoria's secret.

"Thank you Alice! Thank you so much!" I didn't feel so bad now that Edward wouldn't be wearing a grandma's bra!

"No problem!" I hugged Alice.

Just then Edward came running into the house.

"Bella!" He ran up to me and took me out of Alice's arms and picked me up and laid my head down on his shoulder. "Are you alright? I'm so sorry, I just saw you upset and then Japer…"

"It's ok Edward, plus it's not me in the bra….it's you!" I laughed and watched his eyes go blank.
