A/N: YAY! First chapter! Are you excited? IM EXCITED! Okay enough of me talking...well typing. Let the story BEGIN!
Bella P.O.V
"Come on Jessica" I yelled up the stairs. Shes been in my bathroom for over an hour getting ready. I don't know what she could possibly be doing to get get ready to go to the Cullen's house. We've been over there a billion times in the last 13 years we've been friends with Alice and Edward. We could show up in our pajamas and no one would care. All we were doing was having another movie Friday and welcoming Edward, Emmett and Rosalie back from Italy. They spent the first two weeks of summer vacation there. She came downstairs looking hot. She had makeup on. She had on her best purple skin tight tube top that hugged her curves with white short shorts. Whats up with her dressing so nice? I know she has some sort of obsession with Edward but she couldn't possibly think that dressing up like a street corner prostitute would impress him. Would it? I hope not.
Hes not a very shallow guy. That's probably my favorite quality in him. I feel bad for feeling the way i do about Edward when it was so obvious that Jessica likes him. Does it make me a bad friend that Ive hidden my true feelings from her for so long? NO! Of course not! Just because I don't throw myself all over him like her doesn't mean i don't deserve him any more than she does! I love Jessica to death but sometimes she can be a real pain in my ass with her obsession with him.
"finally! You know how alice is when we are late for movie Fridays." I said. She grimaced as she remembered last time she showed up late. Alice made Jessica sing 2 hours worth of Hannah Montana songs. That was a good day.
She checked herself in the mirror once more before heading out to my brand new car my dad got for my birthday. It was a convertible like Rosalie's but instead of cherry red it's sky blue.
I opened the drivers seat jumping into the car. I looked at jessica up and down before putting the car in ignition.
"what?" she asked genuinely confused.
"why are you so dressed up?" I asked. Of course i knew it was because of Edward but i minus well confirm it.
"I just wanted to look good when Edward got back from his vacation to Italy with Emmett and Rose." She said.
"why? Its Edward? He doesn't care what you wear." I said. I knew that must of hurt a little, but it was true. Edward never really cared about what she looked like.
"well I still want to look good!" she snapped back clearly hurt by my comment.
"okay okay! Chill!" I said. We drove to the Cullen's house in silence. I already felt the guilt of my hurtful comment to Jessica. But i couldn't bring myself to apologize. I was simply stating the fact. We reached the Cullen's place in no time. We knocked on the door and Esme came to the door smiling her bright smile that lights up the room. Esme was like a second mom to me. I loved her just as much as i loved Renee.
"hey girls! Alice is upstairs." She said closing the door behind us. We walked upstairs to Alice's room after greeting Esme. We opened the door to see Alice on her bed with a lot of fabric, poster boards and crafting material.
"whats going on?" I asked. Knowing Alice she probably has us designing some new outfit. She is a fashion MONSTER! Her whole life revolves around it. At least she always looked good! Even when shes wearing sweatpants and a t-shirt.
"we are making welcome home decorations for Edward. Silly!" Alice said as if she was talking to a fifth grader. She looked at Jessica obviously thinking the same thing i did when i saw her. Hoe. I decided to continue this conversation before Jessica could respond to her gaze.
"what about Emmett and rose?" I asked.
"they are staying in Italy for a little while longer time." She said focusing on her poster.
"oh ok" I said, bending down to help create decorations. After an hour and a half of making welcome home posters we put them up all over the downstairs area. Then I saw a Volvo pull up. "Edwards coming!" I said. We all hid somewhere. We heard the door open and the lights come one.
"anyone here?" he asked. Putting his bags down. We all jumped out yelling surprise. He laughed as he saw the place. "Thanks guys! You didn't have to do this" he said. He hugged Esme then Alice then Jessica before he hugged me. When he touched me it was like a surge of electricity shot through my body. I love that feeling. He held me for a couple seconds before letting me go smiling at me.
"I missed you guys!" he said turning to face everyone. Jessica smiled brightly.
"we missed you too" Jess said before anyone else had a chance to say anything.
"anyone want to help me unpack?" he ask.
"okay!" Jess yelled a little too enthusiastic
"yeah sure" I said shrugging it off. I cant seem as desperate as Jess. I love Edward too much. I love his eyes. I love how his perfect body feels when he hugs me. I love the way his smile lights up the room. I love everything about him. I snapped out of it and went upstairs with Jess and Edward. Alice didn't feel like helping so she hung out with Esme. We were talking while we helped him unpacked. He had four bags so we each grabbed one. I unzipped the bag and was surprised to find a bag full of boxers. I laughed when I saw some with penguins and dolphins and hearts and stars. I picked them up stretching them.
"Edward you might want to unpack this bag." I said still laughing. He reached up for the penguin boxers missing them completely.
"Give them back!" He yelled playfully.
"Actually i think i might wanna keep these!" i said jokingly. He picked me up tickling me until i gave up the boxers and threw me onto the bed. I was having my own little laughing fit. Jessica was obviously uncomfortable with our interaction.
"so Edward did you meet any Italian chicks you liked?" she said. I could feel her tension.
"no not really. Lets just say I'm more of a forks guy" he said smiling at her. She beamed.
"oh okay cool." She said smiling and blushing, as if that statement was directed to her.
Eward P.O.V
I hope Jessica didn't tell anyone what happened before Italy. I don't think she would but she is a attention whore. I continued to unpack my boxers. I snuck a glance at Bella and her beautiful face. She looked at me and smiled then went back to folding.
"Hay this is kinda boring!" I said. " want to go take a walk and unpack later?"
"sure" they said in unison. Well I really only wanted to go with Bella but that would be too suspicious. And I wasn't gonna be mean and not invite Jessica. I know she still has a thing for me too. She has ever since middle school. But she not really my type. She has this obsession with the "perfect image" which apparently we make the cutest image. I don't really care about that though. All i care about is Bella. We put down the clothes and went outside for our walk. It was cold as usual in rainy forks. Good thing I brought my big jacket. Toasty warm in here. "so whats up?"
"well Bella loves Jacob black!" Jessica blurted out. Oh not. Please don't be true. It cant be? Can it?
"she does?" I said looking at her.
"I do?" Bella said at the same time looking at Jessica with a confused angry face.
"yeah I see the way you look at him! And the way he looks at you is incredible!" she said. Wow I'm stupid to ever think she would like me.
"Jess Jacob has been my best friend since we were babies! You know that! I don't love him like that." I said. That was reassuring. I need to tell her how I feel and soon before Jacob tells her he loves her!
"oh but he told me he loves you" she said. Bella was shocked.
"lets not talk about this ill talk to him later." She said. We were silent for a while. Bella was shivering so I toke off my jacket and put it over her.
"here take my jacket." I said. She smiled at me. I looked into her eyes as they stared deeply into mine. I slowly leaned in closer to her face. To her perfect lips. About to kiss her.
