Chapter 4: Distractions

A/N: Do not hate me! It's taken me so long to update because of school, procrastination, and hurricane Ike. Even though I live in southern Indiana, on 9/14/08, which was a Sunday, we got 70 mph winds because of the hurricane. Therefore, we didn't have power for two days! It was hell! Luckily, we live across from an Urgent Care Center, so that was one of the first places to get power. Some people won't get power for another two weeks! And we haven't had school all week! Which, would be great except for the fact that those days are counted as snow days, so if we have anymore no school days then we have to make them up in the summer, which sucks! Anyway, sorry about the ranting! Back to the story, most of this chapter, okay pretty much all of it except for like two paragraphs, is the work of my best little munchkin of a friend Connie. (No joke, she is actually only 4ft 11in tall and weighs 68lbs! Yea, she's tiny and she's 14 yrs old!) She just lost her virginity to writing fanfiction! This is her first bit of writing on Fanfiction! Her username is I-really-do-bite. I'll tell you when she puts any stories up, but right now, she has no electricity. The stuff in bold is what I wrote, the rest is all her. By the way, there are no pranks in this chapter, but there is a lot of messing with Mike, so that's always fun. It's a pretty funny chapter, so enjoy!

Disclaimer: I almost had the rights to own Twilight but the wind blew it away. So sadly these amazing characters belong to Stephenie Meyer. Also, the extremely awesome store of Wal-Mart belongs to who ever owns Wal-Mart. Seriously does anyone know who owns Wal-Mart? Maybe his name is Wally. But it's not me, so don't sue! I have no money and my parents have to pay for people to fix our roof! And I like our roof, missing shingles and all.

(Edward's POV)

I saw Mike Newton out of the corner of my an got an idea when I heard his thoughts.

'Bella is here with Cullen. I'll bet she'll see me any minute and realize she is madly in love with me!'

Poor delusional Mike.

"Bella," I whispered. She spun around to meet my gaze. That's when I bent my lips down softly to hers. I couldn't exactly remember when, but sometime during that kiss I had pushed Bella against the aisle wall, and had one of her hands pinned to the shelf above her head, while her other hand knotted in my hair. My free hand rested on her hip. I forgot Mike was standing a couple of feet away from us, but was brought back to the time and place by the thoughts running through his little mind.

'What is he doing to my future girlfriend?!'

I almost laughed when another thought passed through his brain and once again into my ears.

'I know why her eyes are closed! She's wishing she was kissing me! HAHA!'

Emmett was suddenly behind me. "Ahem," he cleared his throat. "EDWARD!" he screeched after a minute. I broke the kiss and looked over to Mike, who held his jaw agape. I tangled my fingers with Bella's and walked over to him.

"Catching flies, are we Mike?" I asked innocently. It took him a minute to answer verbally, but mentally, he was seething with anger.

'No! He can't do that! He can't kiss my girlfriend! She can't kiss him! GOD! I hate you Cullen! If you hadn't pinned her hand over her head and practically crushed her into the wall, she'd have seen me and been all over me! Grrr!'

"No," he abruptly closed his mouth and glared at me. Mike was starting to unintentionally annoy me, by thinking about him and Bella in ways that couldn't really be considered PG-13. A growl erupted from the back of my throat. Although it was too soft for Mike's ears, Bella, having heard it before, caught it in an instant. The images didn't stop.

"Mike," I started, "would you please shut up?" Bella gave me a stern look as I scowled at Mike. Although Mike backed away, the images pouring through his head didn't cease. I saw every one of them.

"Edward, what did I tell you about saying things like that to people?" Bella scolded me.

"That it's rude and I shouldn't do it," I paused, then grinned evilly and said, "Or you'll have to punish me, although your punishments are very pleasurable," I looked at Mike.

'No! Ew! No! He can't do that kind of thing with her! Ew! Dirty mental images!'

A series of mental images of Bella and I flowed through his mind before he could stop them. Good. Serves him right. Huh, in his mind, Bella is much more flexible. Huh, I wonder if that position is even possible! We might have to try it sometime when Bella is more durable.

Having enough of Mike, I turned and walked away at a slow pace. Bella attempted to follow me, but tripped and fell. She groaned and picked herself up off the floor. It looked like she was going to pass out, I couldn't figure out why. Then it hit me, burned in the back of my throat, and clouded my mind. I wanted to run to her, catch her incase she fell again, but I was becoming almost as dizzy as her. Pain glistened in her eyes, fear in mine. The smell was so strong, Emmett had to sprint away. Mike looked at us with confusion written on his face at what he was witnessing.

"Edward," she spoke weakly, "don't be brave. Just walk away." For Mike's benefit, she was trying to add a cheery demeanor into her voice.

'What does she mean by "don't be brave"? I'll bet he's afraid of blood! HA!'

Mike if only you knew...

I shook my head and watched her as she sped off to the bathroom. I glared silently at Mike, while I waited for her to come out.

Minutes later, she emerged, all clean. No more blood pouring out of her arm. Back to normal. I gave her a kiss and smirked at Mike, before walking away with Bella to find my siblings.

'God! What the crap! Dude's a freak and he still gets the girl! It's his fault she gets hurt, and she still runs back to him! God! What a day!'

Now these thoughts made me snarl in anger. How was it my fault?

Bella looked at me curiously. "Excuse me please, Bella, while I go pummel our friend Mike into a bloody freaking pulp!" I said calmly to her.

"No, Edward. No inflicting bodily harm on anyone in our school," she replied sternly.

"But, Bella! You should have seen what he was thinking!" I whined.

"Don't care now come on!"

A/N: Okay, so that's chapter 4. The pranks will be back in the next chapter, so don't get your panties in a knot! The next chapter will be in Jasper's POV I think. So, like I said, the stuff in bold was what I added and everything else was written by Connie. If you would like to leave a review, be sure to include who the review is for, me (Kelsey or twilighters-anonymous) or Connie (or I-really-do-bite). Thanks. I'll tell you all when she puts her first story up. She's got I story finished and when her power comes back on she'll post it. She also has two other unfinished stories. I might help her write one of them. But, I'll tell you anything important! So, now that this chapter is out of the way, I will go finish La Bella Italia. I wrotethe second chapter when I wrote the first I just haven't posted it. Also, I have a one-shot titled 'Getting Caught' that I need to post. I also, have a new story that I have the first chapter for, but I won't work on it until this story is done. I have a lot of ideas for one-shots and stories. My brain is working faster than my fingers. Anywho, that is all for now.– twilighters-anonymous.
