Chapter 5

As I told the story of my dream I watched in disbelief as Edward didn't laugh at me. He listened intently showing close to no emotion through his beautiful features. When I reached the part about James and his hunt for me Edward's face flashed something resembling shock and fear but it was wiped away before I could fully identify it. I rounded the end of my tale and stood up.

"It's okay, you can run away now screaming something about me being completely out of my mind, I knew it was going to happen," I told him taking our mugs to the sink.

"Bella, as long as I can help it I am not going anywhere. You aren't crazy. It was a dream they are allowed to be…what's the word? Ummm, irrational maybe? I don't know but I don't think you are crazy and I think that no one but your subconscious is to blame. Please don't worry, I don't believe that you are any more insane then I am," he replied.

I looked up at him a clear look of astonishment evident on my face, "Are you serious? You actually want to stay with me?"

"Yes Bella. I want to stay with you more then anyone else. I really do like you Bella. A lot." He answered like he was embarrassed and a tinge of pink appeared on his cheeks.

"Don't be embarrassed, I like you too. A lot." It was my turn to blush but I turned as red as a tomato.

A crooked grin spread across his face as he whispered, "That blush on your skin is lovely," I looked up at him and smiled and he took my hand leading me towards the door.

"Where are we going?" I asked as he handed me my shoes.

"I'm taking you to dinner," he replied simply with another smile that sent my heart spinning again.

"Charlie?" suddenly I remembered that I had to feed my father when he got home.

"He went to Billy's for dinner, or so the note on the fridge said," I looked at Edward for a moment before going to read the note on the refrigerator door.

Bella, went to Billy's house for dinner, you are invited too if you want to come up just call and I'll give you directions. Love, Dad.

Okay that problem is solved. I pulled out a pen and scrawled my own note on the back of Charlie's. I told him I was going to dinner with Edward Cullen and I would be back later.

"Okay I'm ready!" I was truly excited. I thought Edward would think I was a nutcase and flee from me as fast as his feet would allow. I was wrong though and for that I was truly glad.

"Good because I am hungry!" he grinned at me and I laughed. I knew he was poking fun at my dream and for some odd reason it didn't bother me that he was laughing. I don't know if it was because he wasn't laughing at me he was actually laughing with me.

My common judgment was screaming at me. Telling me not to fall for Edward like I did in my flight of the imagination, that could only end badly. Right? I wasn't sure but I was just disregarding everything my good sense was telling me. I was falling for Edward Cullen just as I had while I was in my dream world.


A/N: Okay so this was another pretty short chapter. I was thinking about doing the next chapter in Edward's P.O.V. if you want me to let me know in a REVIEW. Hehe
