Bella's POV
I walked in to biology and Edward smiled when I sat down.
"Hey." He said.
"Hi" I replied putting my jacket over the back of my chair.
"How are you today?" he asked.
"Good you?" I asked.
"Better now." He said with his crocked smiled. It took me a minute to start breathing again.
Out teacher handed out our assignments and I finished them easily as did Edward so it left us the period to talk.
"So, I decided that you were right." He said.
"Oh and what about?" I asked.
"That I shouldn't listen to everybody else, about me becoming a doctor just like my father. I'm my own person and I decided that I'm going to have a career in music." He said and I squeezed his hand.
"I'm happy for you." I said with a smile. He squeezed my hand back with a breath taking smile. I tried to do something other than drooling at him so I took out my book and started reading Romeo and Juliet.
"Ah fan of the classics?" Edward asked. I nodded not looking at him. He laughed. I turned to him.
"What?" I asked.
"It's nothing." He said with his drop dead crocked smile.
"What?" I insisted.
"I just love how you get so wrapped up in the book, like you're in your own little world." He said with a smile, it nearly stopped my heart. Was he saying something nice about me or just calling me a freak? Since he had a girlfriend I was guessing the latter.
"Yeah, I'm ordinary; I'm a freak I got it." I said shaking my head and looking back at my book. I was surprised when he grabbed the book out of my hand. I looked at him stunned, he looked mad. "What?" I asked, not seeing why I upset him.
"You are not a freak, and you are not ordinary. Never think that. You are most amazing girl I have ever met." He said his green eyes boring into mine. Then the bell rang and it took me a minute to get up, I turned around and almost fell but two strong arms caught me. I turned and saw Edward smirking.
"Thank you, for what you said and for catching me." I said quietly. Everyone had left the room, even the teacher.
"It's the truth, and you need someone to look after you." He said laughing quietly. I narrowed my eyes.
"Yeah, cause I'm going to walk off a bridge." I said as I rolled my eyes."Well your becoming a musician instead of a doctor…so I guess you can't give me medical advice, or stitch me up when I crack my head open…again." I said laughing.
He suddenly looked serious.
"I'm serious; I don't want anything to happen to you. Be safe" He said sternly, all I could do was nod. It was as if we were caught up in our own moment. "You're too beautiful for anything this mess up this face." He said his hand caressing my cheek. What was happening? Then he was staring intently at my lips. Then he grabbed my face and stared into my eyes.
"Tell me to stop Bella." He said breathless. I couldn't speak. Then he leaned in and then his lips touched mine and it felt like I was on fire. I saw fireworks, I saw vibrant colors. I kissed him back fiercely and his hands braided themselves to my hair and I wrapped my arms around his neck. He held on to me, like he was scared I would run away. Then it hit me.
I pulled back and he stood there shocked.
"We can't do this." I said seriously, he looked hurt but he nodded. "You have a girlfriend." I reminded him.
"What?" He asked. I gaped at him.
"You have a girlfriend." I annunciated then I watched realization hit him.
"This never happened!" he all but growled. "You're right we shouldn't have done that and I'm sorry." Then he was looking at the ceiling, and then his face looked pained. "Bella, we shouldn't be friends anymore." Of course he didn't want to be friends, he didn't like me, and he knew what a mistake I was.
"Yeah we shouldn't." I said trying to conceal my pain. I felt tears in my eyes. "Goodbye Edward." I said and I ran out the room. I sat down in my Spanish class and kept wiping my tears.
"Bella what's wrong?" Alice asked giving me tissues. I just shook my head. "It was my stupid brother wasn't it?" she asked. I nodded. "He's so stupid, Bella just tell me, that's what best friends are for." I told her what happened and she nodded and gasped and then she looked concerned, then she thought about it for a minute and then replied.
"Bella I think he likes you." Alice said confidently.
"Did you not just hear what I said?" I exclaimed.
"I heard every word but I don't believe it." She said. "Well I don't believe that it means he doesn't like you." She said in the matter of fact tone. I laughed.
"Yeah right." I said.
"Trust me, oh and you're coming over later." She said.
"Where am I going?" I asked.
"To my house." She annunciated.
"Oh no." I said shaking my head.
"Yes, everyone's going to be there to pick out outfits for prom." She said.
"I'm not going to prom, I don't even have a date and prom is like a week away." I said.
"I don't care; I already picked out your dress. Please?" she pleaded and she used her puppy dog face. I sighed there was no turning down Alice
"Fine later at…?" I asked.
"Around 7." She said.
"Mmhmm." I said and she laughed and tore a piece of paper and starting writing on it.
"Here are directions." She said handing me the piece of paper.
The Bell rang for the last class of the day and I sulked all the way to gym. I stopped near the gym to get a drink, and then I sat up and spun right into someone. I dropped all my books I started picking up my stuff, not looking up.
"I'm so sorry." I said looking up and then I gasped. Edward was staring at me; remember he doesn't mean anything to you. I got up and walked quickly into the locker room.
Edward's POV
I watched Bella walk into the locker room and I ached to follow after her. I wondered if she cared for me at all. I kissed her in biology and it was the most exciting feeling, I have ever experience. I never felt anything like it. It felt as if my body was on fire, I saw all these colors and fireworks. I never wanted it to end. Then she pulled back and I knew I made a mistake, I just kissed her that wasn't gentleman of me too do, when did I become a gentlemen? I knew when I met Bella she deserved to be treated that way. She reminded me of something. I had a girlfriend, at first I didn't know who she was talking too but then I remembered Stacy. I felt like a stupid a-hole for cheating, I might be allot of things but a cheater was never one of them. Bella didn't even want to be my friend and I was forcing her. I knew that if we weren't friends then I wouldn't talk to her all the time and I wouldn't be tempted to take her on the floor.
I walked to my car and just sat there, I had a free period so I just stayed in my car. All I could do was think of Bella, in the last month that's all I've ever thought off. Bella, and her face and how amazing she was. An angel for a lack of better phrase. Bella was a goddess; I knew I didn't deserve her. I always was a player, I went with the most popular girl, that's how I thought things were suppose to be, but I didn't care. All I wanted was Bella and now she hated me. That knowledge made my heart rip open. I got out of my car and breathed in the fresh air trying to banish her to the back of my mind.
"Hey Edward." I heard Tyler come up.
"Hey Tyler." That night I got home and went straight to work, cleaning and cooking. The doorbell rang and I hurried to the door.
"What's up?"
"Nothing really." I replied.
"So your sister and Bella have been getting really close." He commented.
"They have?" I asked, I never saw them talk even though I tried ignoring her.
"Well yeah, but well can you get me a date with her?" he asked. I gaped at him; I didn't want him to have Bella! I wanted to have her. I shook my head angrily and walked away. I couldn't believe how jealous I just got. People flirted with Stacy all the time and I never gave it a second thought. I never felt this way with Stacy. I felt so deeply about Bella, if anything ever happened to her, I'd die. I was turning into such a melodramatic girl.
I was walking past the entrance to the school where I saw a girl and a boy kissing. I recognized the girl, Angela; she was in my government class. The boys I recognized too, Ben, he was in my Spanish class. They looked so happy just be in the presence of each other.
"I love you." Ben said beaming at Angela. I couldn't see Angela's face since her back was facing away from me now but I heard her.
"I love you too." She replied. They walked away hand in hand.
I felt something hit me, inside. My heart swelled. I was in love with Bella.
"Hey." Stacy came up to me kissing my cheek. I cringed. I was in love with Bella, and all though she probably didn't feel the same way I couldn't continue to be with Stacy when I loved Bella so completely.
There wasn't a good way to say this
"Stacy, we're done." I said and I walked away. I was walking to my car when I saw Bella and Mike talking; I listened in, slowing my pace so I could hear all of it.
"So did you finish the paper?" he asked.
"Yeah, it was really easy." She replied, of course it was for her.
"OH yeah it was." Mike said.
"Well I have to go." She said.
"Well I just wanted to ask you something." Mike said.
"Yes?" she asked.
"So do you want to go to prom with me?" he asked, I held my breath.
"Sorry Mike, but I don't think Jessica would like that. Not to mention I'm not going." She replied with a little smile."Sorry." She said, I started to breathe again then she walked away.
"You'll be mine." I heard Mike whisper to himself. I wanted to go up and punch him. I knew he was thinking of Bella in a way that was wrong, how dare he!
I was almost ran to my car that my siblings already sat in.
"Saying goodbye to your beloved Stacy?" Alice sneered.
"Just breaking up with her." I replied.
"Wow, you were right Alice, he does like Bella." Emmett said laughing. I slammed on my breaks which made him laugh harder.
"What?" I asked.
"I know you like her Edward, but you're so stupid. You made her CRY!" she exclaimed.
"You don't know that I did that." I said defensively. Bella didn't care for me; she didn't like me that way.
"Edward, Alice and Bella are best friends. How have you not noticed?" Emmett asked as if he was stating that the sky was blue.
"Edward's been too busy trying to ignore Bella, so he wouldn't like her to notice that." She said. I gaped at my sister. How does she know everything? Was she physic or something?
"I'm in love with her Alice." I said and I heard Emmett gasp.
"Edward in love, I thought I'd never see the day." Emmett said laughing. I rolled my eyes.
"Well you're lucky that I got you a second chance. Bella's coming over later, so there." She said smiling.
"You're the best." I said.
"I know." She said. I sped home to get ready. I had this thing in my head; I knew it was about her. I needed to write it down, it might help me make things right with Bella, I didn't know if it would work but I knew I had to try.
Bella's POV
I can't believe that Mike really asked me to prom, and then some other boy earlier. I didn't need Stacy and her minions hating me more. After was happened in biology I was sure they would. Stacy would probably come over and yell at me saying to get my filthy hands off her boyfriend and Edward would say Exactly, I love Stacy not you Bella. I felt the thought rip my heart.
How I wished he would tell me he loved me. I knew I loved him, he was the one I went to sleep thinking about, and he was the one I woke up thinking about. I went home and as I got out of my car. I heard my dad call to me, then I slipped on ice and everything went black.
