Chapter 2:
Ed. POV
"Jasper, How the hell did you get Alice to go out with you? It's an impossibility! It's just plain wrong! You two are from completely different worlds! You can't even flirt! It's just not fair!" Emmett ranted. His voice had gotten annoyingly loud. GOD! Why can't he just learn to Shut UP! " She's popular too bro!" Emmett continued. "And you're...you're...NOT!" Finally I snapped! Too much of Emmett can push a person over the edge!
"Just give it up Emmett! Just because you can't get a date with Rosalie doesn't mean you have to cuss out Jasper when he gets a girl! Shut your mouth before I shut it for you!" That was one of my sucker threats but, hey, it still worked! Emmett backed down quickly. You DO NOT mess with THE Edward Cullen. I...am a friekin' GOD! "Sorry Ed. I'm just frustrated okay! How on earth does Jazzy-Pooh get a date before me! It's just not right!"
"MY NAME IS NOT JAZZY-POOH, EMMIE-BEAR-CUDDLE-MUFFIN!" Jasper yelled in Emmetts face. Here we go again. Dang it. Just when I thought they were over this! These were the nicknames their previous girlfriends had given them. Not the smartest bunch... definitely not. Lauren and Jessica were... different.They were slutty and stupid. The only reason that Emmett and Jasper even dated them was because they looked good in swimsuits. I myself have never really had a steady girlfriend. I didn't want one.
They were just something that held you back-a chain around your neck. I didn't want to be tied down to some slutty girl. It just wasn't appealing to me. I was Edward Cullen-head playboy of Forks High. I'm captain of the football team, basketball team, and the soccer team. I'm the definition of all things 'jock'. This, paired with my extremely good looks (A/N hehe..Edward is soo full of himself it's not even funny! Okay maybe just a little funny!), gave me the respectable title of the most popular boy in school.(A/N Yep definitely up himself!).Emmett was my right hand man, along with Jasper. They were both good friends. Jasper was just a little too shy to be popular, and Emmett acted like a five year old with a thirst for trouble. Both of them had flaws, unlike me, and only made my appearance even grander. Not that this was the only reason I hung out with them, it was just an added bonus.
"At least I don't stutter like a retard when I talk to a girl! 'Wwwww-ould yyy-ou llike tto have ddinner with me ttonight?'" Emmett mocked him mercilessly.
"I do not stutter you stupid ass! I was cold and my teeth were chattering!"
"That is possibly the lamest excuse I have ever heard in my entire existence! IT WAS SEVENTY-FREAKIN- DEGREES OUTSIDE YOU MORON!"
"I have a naturally cold body temperature!"
" Uh-huh. Sure. I soooo believe you. Heavy on the sarcasm."
Holy crap. My friends are a bunch of two year olds with anger issues! This had been going on for long enough and, personally, I don't like to be stared at by a bunch of strangers for looking like a retard while your friends have a battle of gay comebacks while screaming at the top of their lungs in the middle of the mall food court! So, I did the only thing that I could, I walked away. I just left them there to look stupid all on their own. What other choice did I have? Stand there and try and break them apart while also managing to make myself look like a dumbass? Nope. Not gonna happen. Edward is not a dumbass. He is freakin' amazing- In the middle of my 'Edward-is-so-freakin'- awesome-you-don't-even-begin-to-realize-how-cool-he-is' pep-talk, some clumsy girl ran into me! She had been walking down the clothes rack when she decided to trip on air, causing her to fall forward and land directly into my chest. Acting on instinct, my arms protectively wrapped around her. In a split second I was looking into the most gorgeous eyes I have ever seen in my life. Chocolate-brown in color, they held a depth that I had never experienced before. I felt as if I could stay there all day, just holding her like that. Wow! Gotta snap out of it Edward! It was then that I realized exactly how long I had been holding this stranger and I safely placed her back on her feet.
"Sorry! Oh my God I'm so sorry! It was an accident I swear!" She apologized repeatedly while trying to pick up her belongings that had taken to the floor in her fall while simultaneously trying to hide the innocent blush that now covered her face.
"It's fine. No harm no foul. Right?" She looked up at me with realization covering her features but the odd thing was the anger that took over her features in such a short amount of time. Oh. My. God. How in the world had I never noticed this girl before? I gave her the once over as she stood up to face me after gathering her things. She's gorgeous! She had long, chocolate brown hair that matched her eyes and an amazing body with all the curves in the right places. She had porcelain skin that looked extremely fragile. She was wearing a FOB t-shirt with a pair of dark wash skinny jeans that extenuated her amazing legs. Her shoes were a beat up old pair of Vans that completed the punk look that she was going for. She had a thick line of eyeliner surrounding her lids and some mascara that revealed the long length of her eyelashes. She. Was. HOT!
"Hi. I'm Edward." I introduced myself.
"I know." she answered smugly showing no intention to reply. She was glaring icily at me for reasons unknown. She was obviously pissed at me for something. When had I ever even met this girl to be able to piss her off so much? I don't think I would forget about a girl as hot as she was, so I don't think I'd ever made out with her before...
"And you are...?" I questioned her. Seriously! How had I never seen her before?
"Why the hell do you wanna know?" she snapped. WOW! Spicy.
"Just interested. That's all. How come I've never seen you around before? You new here?"
"Are you kidding me? How the HELL do you not know who I am? You of all the people in the world, YOU don't know who I am! Well that's pretty fucked up, don't you think?"
What was she talking about? I had just met this girl It's not like we had dated or anything! I had JUST met her! At that second, I heard a familiar, bell-like voice talking from behind the mystery girl. "Bella? Edward? What's going on here?" Suddenly, realization took place. Not only had I managed to not recognize my sisters absolute best friend in the whole wide world, but also my own two best friend's sister! This was Bella Swan! Younger sister to Emmett and Jasper and best friend to Alice! GOD! I'm such a dumbass! The irony...
