Chapter 3: Good First Day of School Ending?
What the hell was that smirk for?
Edward quickly wrote something and tossed back the note. I quickly grabbed and read it.
Oh, just some ideas I have for some fun in this class... ;)
I looked back at him and he was smiling mischievously. I ignored it and focused back on Mr. Banner before he caught us. Then the bell rang for the last period of the day.
I had gym next and it turned out, so did our whole group. To our dismay, so did Tanya, her group, and even their "guys."
Since today was the first day, our coach, Coach Cartwright, let us change, if we brought our clothes to play basketball and only if we wanted. Everyone decided to change while the coach went to grab the rack of basketballs. He told us we could also sit out if we wanted to, but of course, all the girls besides me wanted to sit out. Even Rosalie and Alice didn't want to play because they didn't want to get hurt, since the guys like to play rough. That left only me who wanted to play. It turns out the guys really wanted to play, while the girls just wanted to show off how they looked to the guys in their P.E. uniforms. I had just gotten out into the gym when someone called out.
"Hey Bella, want to play a game?" yelled Logan, a guy in our class. He was really nice, but shy, so were his friends. He was standing with Carter and Chase, who were two of them.
I looked to my left to see all the guys in our group had just gotten out of the locker rooms and to my right where the girls were coming out taking seats on the bleachers. Tanya and her girls sat in the front row to check out the guys while they were playing.
"Bella?" Logan asked again. I then saw all the guys behind me because they thought he was trying to hit on me. Edward decided to wrap his arm around my waist to claim me which I thought was cute.
"Sure, I'll play, if my guys here can too," I responded waving my hand over to Edward and the guys in our group.
"No problem!" he said. The guys instantly seem relieved when they found out he was just asking if I wanted to play a game of basketball. They even got excited when I volunteered them to play.
"Can we play too?" asked none other than Mike Newton with Tyler and Eric right behind him.
I looked to Logan and he shrugged. I then thought about it for another second and said, "Sure, I guess you can."
I decided Mike and I were going to be captains, since no one volunteered. I had a plan in mind and it included getting Mike, Tyler, and Eric on the same team and beating their asses. I picked Edward first and Mike picked Tyler. Then I picked Jasper and he picked Eric. Then it went on like that. I ended up with Edward, Jasper, Logan, Carter, and Chase. Mike got Tyler, Eric, Emmett, Devon, and Tristan. This meant some sibling rivalry.
"I'll jump ball," I told my team and I walked to the middle of the court just as Devon stepped up.
"Why hello sis," he said.
"Hi, ready to get creamed?" I asked with a smirk.
"In your dreams," he shot back.
Then I heard some whistles and cheers and saw that the rest of the class decided to watch our little game.
"Ready?" Jasper asked as he held the ball to throw it up.
"Ready!" we replied as we both touched the ball.
"1, 2, 3!" Jasper yelled as he threw the ball up.
I quickly jumped and hit the ball out of the air before my brother could and it went directly into the hands of Logan. He quickly dribbled down the court toward our basket and made a lay-up scoring us two points. My team cheered while the other team glared. Mike went to take the ball in and passed it to Devon who dribbled down the court and made a free throw shot. It kept going on like this for a while with everyone making at least a few shots. Close to the end of the game, we were tied and had one minute before we had to go change. It didn't look real good either since Emmett had the ball.
"I'm open!" yelled Tristan. Chase hasn't played with my brothers and I long enough to know that if he says he's open, it really means pass it to the other person. I, on the other hand, did. I quickly ran and blocked Devon, stole the ball, and passed it to Jasper. We all dribbled down the other way, Jasper passed it back to me, and right when the whistle blew, I stopped at the three pointer mark and shot the ball. It flew in with a swish and everyone in class erupted in applause, even Devon, Tristan, and Emmett. The other guys on their team scowled and Tanya and her group came over.
"That was like the worst game ever," Tanya said.
"Oh yeah, and you would know because?" I asked while shooting her a glare.
"Well, Mike, Tyler, and Eric would have done more and won if it weren't for your brothers and Emmett hogging the ball," Tanya sneered.
"Oh really, I never knew passing the ball to your teammate was part of playing the game," I replied.
"Well whatever, Mike, Tyler, and Eric would have totally won if it weren't for the help you got from your little guy buddies, and you still suck!" she nearly shouted back.
"Name a place and time and I will beat their asses without the help of my guys and my brothers' and Emmett's supposed ball hogging." I shot back with a smirk.
"Okay, how about this?" she asked as she ran towards me tackling me to the floor grabbing attention from everyone. We rolled around a bit and she tried to punch me, but I was able to grab both of her arms before her hands contacted to my face or pulled my hair. The guys were so shocked, but they snapped out of it and grabbed Tanya to restrain her from attacking again. Edward was the one who helped me up off the floor.
"Are you okay Bella?" he asked, his voice filled with concern.
"I'm fine, but keep her away from me," I said while straightening up a bit and he nodded.
"What's going on over here?" Coach Cartwright asked in a stern voice approaching us.
"Tanya attacked me," I replied.
"No, I didn't! I was here to confront her. Bella was threatening Mike, Tyler, and Eric saying that if they don't lose purposely, she'll make their lives miserable!" Tanya whined and complained. Her little minions were nodding their heads in agreement. This caused everyone, but the coach to laugh because that was totally fake sounding and they knew it didn't happen.
"And what is so funny?" Coach Cartwright asked.
"You see Coach; Mike, Tyler, and Eric were the ones who asked if they could play with us. Bella said yes, but she didn't threaten them because she wouldn't care if her team lost or won. She just wanted to have fun and when her team won, Mike, Tyler, and Eric were the ones scowling." Devon answered truthfully.
Coach looked at me and asked, "Why the hell should I believe what he is saying with your reputation?"
"Simple, everyone here is a witness and why would I lie about something crappy happening like this? Also if you want to keep your job, I suggest you believe it because I will make you regret it," I threatened.
"Fine Swan, everyone go and change!" Coach demanded sounding defeated.
"Aren't you going to do anything?" Tanya asked.
"No, just leave it be," Coach replied sounding annoyed by Tanya.
I looked at her smirked and she and her little posse stomped away. Rosalie, Alice, and I quickly changed and walked out of the gym with our stuff. Just as we got out we saw our guys and my brothers waiting for us.
"That was a great game, love," Edward compliment before pulling me into a sweet kiss. I returned the kiss by deepening it, but he pulled away because we heard a cough coming from my brothers.
I glared at them and said, "Gosh, you don't see me coughing when you guys are making out with girls!" They both laughed and we headed to our cars.
I skipped ahead and got to my car when someone grabbed me by the waist, turned me around, and kissed me on the lips roughly before I saw who it was. These lips were familiar and I knew them anywhere. I pushed him off and looked up, shocked when I saw him. By the time everyone saw him, they stood still, surprised to see him too.
"Bella! What the hell is this guy doing here?" Edward asked as he ran over to my car to put his arm protectively around my waist.
"Hello Bella, miss me?" he asked me.
Thanks for those reviews and I'll try to write up to the requests and advice. Sorry this chapter was late! I was busy over the weekend and by the time I tried to update it yesterday, my internet wasn't working. Please review! :D
