Chapter: 2

Invisible – Taylor Swift

"I just wanna show you, she don't even know you. Baby, let me love you like I want to..."

"We haven't decided yet but, it'll be good," Rose smirked.

"Oh yeah. We'll think of something," Alice chuckled.

"I can't believe we lost to girls!" Emmett boomed.

"I'm not ashamed that my girlfriend beat me," Jasper said sweetly as he wrapped his arms around Alice and kissed her forehead lovingly.

"Awww," Emmett smiled softly, "You're so whipped man...Ow!"

"Thanks Rosie," Jasper chuckled softly.

"Anytime Jazzy," she said while looking at Emmett like she wanted to do more then just smack him up-side the head.

"Aw, come on Rose. You know I was just messing around," he smirked; wrapping his arms around her seductively. Rose smiled adoringly at her boyfriend and kissed him passionately.

"Eww," I made a face, "Go get a room you two."

"Okay!" Alice exclaimed excitedly, "What should we do next?"

"Well," Edward looked at his cell phone, "It's barely 2 o'clock and we wanted to go home around 6 to have a movie night."

"Hmm, okay. So that gives us a lot of time till then," Alice mused.

"Oh hey there's that fair in Port Angles today," Rose broke away from a heated kiss with Emmett to tell us.

"Oooh, I'm all in for the carnival," Emmett smiled his dimpled grin; his lips pinker then usual.

"Alright then. We'll take Emmett and Rose with us in my car," Alice replied.

"Okay then. Let's get going!"

Alice and Jasper walked hand-in-hand to her yellow Porsche (the Cullen were very well off) with Rosalie and Emmett tagging along. Edward pulled me up gently to stand but I was still feeling a little dizzy; I wasn't sure if it was from the fall or the almost kiss.

"Can you walk?" he asked, gently rubbing my back.

"Yeah."

"I wonder what you girls will make us guys do," he muse with a teasing smile on his lips; his eyes shining with curiosity.

"I don't know. It's up to Al and Rose, I guess."

"What if each of you decides what one of us should do? Like Rose has to choose for Em, Alice for Jasper, and you for me. Then what would you have me do?" he smiled as he opened my door.

"Hmm," I smiled innocently as I tapped my chin; faking like I was in thought, "I would make you my slave for the whole week."

"Oh really?" he chuckled.

"Yup," I grinned, "You would have to do everything and anything I wanted."

"Hmm, I don't like the sound of that." I chucked at his worried expression.

"Don't worry, Eddie" I giggled at his glare. He shut my door and came around to the drivers side; once inside we were speeding down the street heading towards the freeway.

I like where we are,

When we drive, in your car

I like where we are,

Here...

"Did you hear that Hellogoodbye is coming out with a new album this year?" I smiled.

Hellogoodbye was one of my favorite bands. I loved the leader singer's voice; it was mellow and smooth and also interesting because it wasn't like other artists. The music it self was interesting to listen to, it wasn't like anything I've heard of before.

"Yeah," he smiled, "I heard they're going to be coming down to Seattle in September."

Well you are the one, the one that lies close to me

Whispers "Hello, I've missed you quite terribly"

I fell in love, in love with you suddenly

Now there's no place else I could be but here in your arms

"We have to go and see them!" I smiled brightly as he started to sing along with the song, banging his head with the beat.

"YOU ARE THE ONE, THE ONE THAT LIES CLOSE TO ME! WHISPERS HELLO I MISS YOU, I MISS YOU! I FELL IN LOVE, IN LOVE WITH YOU SUDDENLY! NOW THERE'S NO PLACE I COULD BE BUT HERE IN YOUR ARMS!" he sang loudly; turning up the volume. I laughed hysterically when he pretended to play the guitar part.

"HERE IN YOUR ARMS!" we sang the last part together and started laughing at how silly we were being. But this is what Edward and I did; we were comfortable with each other.

The next song that played was False Pretense by The Red Jumpsuit Apparatus and just like that we were off in our little world; singing loudly and making faces at each other. The whole car ride over to Port Angles was like that but it was something I would never forget.

"I can't seem to understand it how you turned out to be so cold..." I sang softly as we made over to the gang, who were waiting by the entrance.

"Finally! Can we go to the rides already?" Emmett whined bouncing slightly in place next to an annoyed Rose.

"Come on!" Alice squealed dragging me by the hand through the gates.

"Oooh! Lets go on the fares-wheel!" Emmett said excitedly.

We each went with one other person; of course Edward and I went together but I wasn't complaining. Emmett was swinging his and Rose's cart and yelling at the top of his lungs, earning many looks from the people below us.

"Will he ever grow up?" I asked laughing as Rose smacked his arms hard.

"Nope that's Emmett for you," Edward chuckled as he looked down at the ground.

I glanced up at the setting sun and smiled as its warmth hit my skin. It was one of those rare sunny days here in Forks and I loved it; especially since I get to spend it with my best friends. The summer was going perfectly and I didn't want it to end. I was afraid that once school started things would change. Many questions ran through my head like, What if Edward and I don't share any classes? What's gonna happen once we graduate? I didn't want to leave school yet. Everything was perfect, almost too perfect; it felt like something bad was gonna happen and ruin everything. Nothings perfect in life. Nothing's constant; everything changes, I thought sadly to myself.

I looked back at my best friend and saw him smiling peacefully into the sky. His emerald eyes lighting up with happiness; his long lashes high-lighting his eyes beautifully as the sun hit his angelic face. He was so handsome – no. Handsome was an understatement. There were no words to describe him, this breathtaking beautiful man – inside and out – my best friend in the whole world. I studied him as he gazed up at the sky and at the ground – watching the people walk around. I noticed that he stared more closely as he shifted his body to the side; staring intently at the ground. No, at someone.

I looked around his shoulder to see him staring at a beautiful strawberry blond girl around our age, maybe a year or two older. Her face was unfamiliar to me which notified me she must have moved here over the summer. My heart felt like it was throbbing as I saw him stare dazed at her, his eyes never leaving her figure. Of course he would like her; she was beautiful, blond, flawless, and not me. I would always be his best friend. I just hope she won't be attending our high school, I thought as we exited the fares-wheel.

"So either Clash of the Titans or The Proposal," Alice said – standing in front of the TV in the living room – as she held both movies side by side.

"Clash of the Titans!" Rose exclaimed.

"Just what I was thinking," Alice smiled happily at her as she slid the disc into the DVD player.

"Bella, are you okay? You've been awfully quiet since we left the fair," Jasper asked concerned from his spot on the love seat.

"I'm fine. Just something on my mind," I murmured under my breath, slightly glancing at Edward next to me. After we left the fares-wheel his focus seemed to have left him. The whole time we walked around and played games or went on rides, he kept looking around for the mystery girl. He never said anything about her but I knew that was the reason.

Jasper looked at Edward peculiarly then threw me a sympathetic smile – seeming to understand without even asking. I glanced down at my intertwined hands on my lap as the movie started. So far Jasper was the only one who noticed something wrong with Edward and I which, in my case was a good thing. I didn't want Alice and Rose getting involved; especially since they had no idea of my feelings for Edward. I hadn't told anyone I loved him and I was planning on keeping it that way. But it was the last summer for us to be together as a group and I was not going to let one person ruin it for me, no matter how sad I was. So from there on I was gonna just forget about this girl. There's a chance she won't even go to our school. She could live in Settle for all I know...

"Which movie did you guys pick?" Emmett asked as he made his way over to sit next to Rose – his hands fills with drinks and popcorn for everyone.

"Clash of the Titans," Jasper replied.

"Awesome! That immortal chick that's like his guardian or whatever is hott!" he grinned unashamed to say even if his girlfriend sat right next to him.

"Perseus is so dreamy," Rosalie sighed. Alice nodded wholeheartedly with her; her eyes becoming dazed as the screen showed the main actor's face.

"Aw come on? Really?" Emmett grumbled unhappily.

"Em, you just commented on another woman – besides your girlfriend – hott. What difference does it make?" Edward chuckled as he watched the movie; stealing the popcorn bowl from him.

"I'm a guy. Guys can think many girls are hott. Not that you would know, Eddie." Edward scowled at him as he chuckled at his own joke. I giggled softly under my breath as Edward continued to eat his popcorn with an annoyed scowled on his face.

"Oh so you think that's funny huh?" he pretended to glare at me.

"Yeah, actually," I smiled teasingly.

"Oh you'll pay for that Swan," grinned mischievously at me.

"Bring it Cullen," I smirked back as I stole some popcorn from his bowl.

We laughed quietly for a moment but settled down once Rose told us to shut up and watch the movie. You don't ever want to mess with a pissed Rosalie. Not a good thing to do if you honor your life. Once the movie was over we decided since it was only 9 o'clock we could watch The Proposal. By half way through the movie everyone was asleep except for Edward and I. We continued to watch the movie but I started to fall asleep so Edward picked me up and carried me to his room. He gently laid me down – taking off my shoes and socks – and tucked me into his huge comfortable bed. I sighed contently as he brushed his lips against my forehead; something he always did when he tucked me in. I heard him move around the room, causing me to open my eyes and see him fixing himself a bed on the floor.

"Edward?" I mumbled sleepily.

"Shh, go back to sleep Bella."

"Mmm, you don't have to sleep on the floor. Please, just sleep on the bed with me." I reached out for him and felt his warm hands gently grasp my fingers.

"Okay," he whispered.

I moaned softly as I turned around in the sheets – trying to get comfortable. Edward turned out the lights and crawled into bed next to me. Even though I was dreadfully tired, my heart swelled knowing that Edward was going to sleep next to me. I turned to my side to face him and noticed that he was shirtless and in just his pj bottoms. I felt my cheeks heat up and I was grateful it was dark so he wouldn't ask me questions.

"Goodnight Bella," he murmured quietly, yawning towards the end.

"Night Edward," I sighed.

~0~

I woke up to the sun lightly hitting my face and warmness surrounding every inch of my body. I opened my eyes slowly to see Edward's sleeping form right in front of my face. Our faces inches away from each other and then I realized his arm was draped around my naked waist; my shirt had lifted up to expose my stomach and ribs. My breathing turned shallow and my heart started racing from his touch. I had dreamed about this countless of times but never had I thought it would feel so good. It was unlike anything I had felt before and I never wanted this moment to end. I looked back up to his face and saw a small smile form on his lips- causing my heart to swell with joy. I hesitantly raised my hand up to brush back some of his hair that had fallen in front of his eyes. As my fingers brushed against his skin he whispered my name softly.

...you just see right through me

but if you only knew me

we could be a beautiful

miracle, unbelievable

instead of just invisible...

In that moment I wanted to kiss him with very fiber of my being; to let him see how much I loved him and wanted him in my life. My heart was pounding in my chest as he moaned quietly at the feeling of my fingers tracing his face. I was in to deep now, I couldn't back now. But I knew it would ruin everything if I kissed him...so I settled on his nose. I know, I know. I'm a coward but, I didn't want to risk losing everything with him or making things awkward. Losing what I had with Edward now is unthinkable; he means everything to me and if things got really awkward I don't know if I could handle losing my best friend.

Summer came and went quickly but it was the best summer I had ever experienced. It was now September 1st and also the first day of Senior year. Jasper was the only one that would be attending Peninsula College in the fall; Rose and Emmett decided to take the fall off to spend some time together before they went to the university in Settle for the winter. So it was just Edward, Alice, and I at Forks High this year but it didn't seem so bad. That is until we got our schedules. Turns out that Edward and I only shared one class which was 6th period Biology with Mr. Banner. But seeing sadness cloud Edwards eyes when I first told him brought me relief. Relief because I didn't want to seem too clingy and then drive him away and it made my heart swell with happiness knowing that he would miss me during his other classes.

So far my classes seemed to be good and I knew a couple of students in every class. In first period – my AP English class – I had Angela and Ben, for second – Honors Calculus – I had Jessica and Alice; who knew Miss Shopaholic had it in her? And my third period class, which is Gym, I had none other then Mike Newton and Jessica Stanley; just peachy. The bell rang for lunch so Alice and I met up next to my locker.

"I heard there's a new student here this year," Alice spoke excitedly as I opened my locker. "Her name is Tanya Denali and she moved here from London! Supposedly, this is her first public school."

"Was she homed schooled?"

"No, actually she went to a private school there," Alice smiled. "Her mother is one of the hottest clothing designers there and her father owns a big company. Bella, we have to meet this girl!"

I laughed at her excitement and looked at her with an amused expression as she bounced lightly on her feet in place, "Alice, chill. I'm sure she's really nice and that we'll love her but, please don't scare the poor girl."

She stuck her tongue at me but smiled happily as we made our way to the cafeteria. Edward was already sitting at a table with Angela and Ben. I said hello as I took my seat – Ben's eyes never leaving his comic book, but saying his greeting. Angela smiled pleasantly at me then went back to scribbling something in her notebook; Edward smiled angelically as he locked eyes with me but breaking his glance once he started eating his lunch.

"So, I've been thinking..." Alice started as she took her seat besides me.

"Oh boy," Edward rolled his eyes dramatically but smiled softly at his twin sister.

"I want to make a new club this year," she smiled.

"What kind of club," Ben asked; eyes glued to his comic book.

"It would for designing clothes, like for our plays or even for the Halloween party for the Seniors!"

"Well, I say you should do it," I smiled happily.

"That's great Alice. I agree with Bella one hundred percent. If you like, I could be of help getting the club started," Angela said.

"Oooh! I have so much to do! Angie we need to come up with a plan! I have to get to work if I want everything to be perfect..." she ranted on with Angela looking quiet happy but worried. She has no idea what she just got herself into...

"I'm thinking of joining the football team this year," Edward said casually. Alice stopped talking all of a sudden to look curiously at her brother.

"Why?"

"I know I'm really good at it and I thought maybe it would be good to get a scholarship out of it...," he smiled.

"Edward Cullen: Captain of the Football team!" Ben tried the words out with a soft smile – his eyes still stuck to the comic.

"I like it. Girls are totally start hitting on you now," Alice giggled as Edward and I scowled at the same time then threw me a knowing glance as if she knew my feelings for Edward.

"Alice, I'm not doing this to get attention from girls or to get a girlfriend," he told her like he was talking to a small child.

"Whatever," she rolled her eyes, "I'm just saying the truth. Girls are gonna drool all over you this year Romeo." she said matter-of-factually as she examined her perfectly manicured nails. "Oh my gosh!" she looked up with a shocked expression; her hands up like if she was stopping traffic, "This year is gonna be awesome! Now we can go to all the football parties!" Ben looked up from his comic book then to look at my best friend like she grew a second head.

"Oh no," I grumbled then placed my head against the table – Edward chuckled softly but tried to comfort me by grabbing my hand and rubbing soothing circles into my palm. "And so Senior year begins," I groaned.
