Disclaimer: I do not own "Twilight" or any of the recognizable characters. Also I obviously do not own "Pride and Prejudice."
A/N: Okay, so I know that the name "Jane" is in there in replace of Alice's name, I tried to look through the chapters to find it, but I couldn't, so if someone could tell me where. I will be able to fix the mistake. Thanks so much for reading and reviewing. I'm surprised that people like this story. Let me know what you think about this chapter. Thanks!
Chapter 4
"Good, so where are we off to now?" I asked.
"You know, I am not sure."
I feigned shock, "Edward is unsure about something? Call out the guards, we have a crisis on our hands."
He looked at me, "Ha ha ha, very funny."
"You know, I try." I said sarcastically.
We both just laughed.
As we walked down the street we came across a cute little bistro and decided to try it out.
When we walked in I could tell that the hostess was ogling Edward. I couldn't help but feel a twinge of jealously. We were seated and looked over the menu. When the server came to the table she wasn't much better than the hostess. It made me feel good, even though I didn't want to, that he wasn't paying the slightest bit of attention to her.
We ordered our food from the disappointed server and returned to our conversation of New York. We talked about how long I have lived here and what I plan to do after graduation, things like that. When I asked him what he had planned for after graduation he got quiet.
"What is it, cat got your tongue?" I prodded trying to lighten the mood.
He gave a half smile and shrugged. "I guess because it is already planned for me. As soon as I graduate I will go to Cambridge University, followed by charity work and studying to take over for my father."
I just sat there. This is the first time that it actually hit me. He is going to be the King of England someday. He can't choose what his life will be, it is already mapped out for him.
For the first time since I met Edward, I felt sympathy for him.
After we ate and argued over who was going to pay the check, we settled he paid the check and I would pay the tip, we decided to walk around New York and take in the city.
We laughed and talked about things of no consequence. I can actually say that I had a really great time. I never, in a million years thought that it would be possible for me to enjoy having a conversation with him. We walked all over, and as it was starting to get late we found our way to the subway.
As we were crammed into the subway we notice a small group of girls squeal. One of them was brave enough came over and asked for Edward's autograph. He reverted back into his rigid uptight posture but still trying to pretend like he didn't hear her. It was actually really funny.
I laughed I couldn't help it, but I think it helped my cause. "See I told you Jeremy, you look just like him," I said as I lightly hit him on the arm before turning back to the girl. "Sorry this is just my friend Jeremy he doesn't believe me that he looks just like Prince Edward. Maybe he'll believe me now."
The girls just blinked, looking disappointed and turned back to her friends shaking her head no.
Edward turned to me with a shocked expression on his face. Speaking low so those girls wouldn't hear him. "How did you do that?"
"Do what?"
"That."
I gave him a look that said, "you're being weird." "What in the world are you talking about? "That" is not enough to go off of, I can't read your mind as you might think."
"I would never presume that you could read my mind." He said as his face flushed a little.
Just then the doors opened for our stop. After we were safely off the subway and headed back towards the school dorms he asked again. "How did you come up with that so fast with those girls back there? I mean why?"
I smiled, "Well first of all, it was obvious that you did not want anyone to know who you are, for obvious reasons." He nodded in reply and to urge me to continue. "Secondly, with a mother like mine, things like that come easy. Besides, I read a lot and that encourages a good imagination."
"How so?"
"How so what?"
He gave me an exasperated look, which made me laugh. "You are so easy." I said.
"What do you mean?" He asked.
"You are so easy to bug. I mean I don't even need to try and you get irritated."
"You find pleasure in irritating me?" He asked starting to get serious again, which only caused me to laugh some more.
He threw up his hands with a sigh.
"Ok," I spoke between laughter, "You are just so easy to provoke. I think that it comes from years of people doing what you say without question." By now I wasn't laughing anymore I was completely serious.
He just looked at me turning his penetrating green eyes on me. He locked me in his gaze.
Before I knew it his lips were on mine and I felt an electricity flow through me. I was lost as his arms circled around me and my hands unconsciously went to his hair. When we broke apart each of us slightly gasping for air.
"That was…" I didn't know how to finish and he just nodded in understanding.
When we got back to the dorms he insisted on walking me back to my room. As we got close I could tell he wanted to give me another amazing kiss, but all of a sudden the door swung open and Alice stood there.
"Bella! Where have you been? I have been worried sick! You were supposed to be home hours ago. Angela stopped by to ask how you were feeling."
I looked at her sheepishly. "I'm sorry, we just lost track of time."
For the first time Alice noticed Edward standing there. "Oh." She said, "I will see you inside." Then she closed the door.
I looked back at Edward who was smirking. "Not feeling well?"
I shrugged, "Hey it was better than what you came up with. Besides, we had an entire evening free, didn't we?"
He smiled, "you are very correct."
"Aren't I always?"
He laughed, "I had a really good time, do you want to try it again?"
Realizing that I had a really good time as well, "Yeah I think I would."
Then before I knew it his lips captured mine, and the electricity coursed through me.
EPOV
I cannot believe that I just had the most amazing night of my life with the most amazing girl I have ever met. Never before has someone, let alone a girl, treated my like a person rather than my station life.
