Chapter 6
Ring, Ring, Ring.
I ran downstairs (still in pj's) to my cell phone, sitting on the couch. "Hello." I answered.
"Bella be ready in 5 minutes. I'm coming now." Rose said, then hung up. Today was Saturday. Every Saturday Rose and I go to the gym. I grabbed my clothes once I was in my room, then quickly slid them on. I grabbed my granola bar, my new gym bag Alice got me, and cell phone and then ran downstairs, opened the front door right as the bright red convertible beeped.
"Better have a towel honey. 'Cuz you're not getting any sweat on this baby." Rose said while stroking the car seat. I laughed and then ran to the car and jumped in.
"Yea, I do. Don't get to worried." I told her. Then we were off. "So what time do you think we're going to be back?" I asked her.
"I don't know. We're probably going to be there for an hour in the half or two hours. Then we can get lunch maybe." She said. "Why? What's the rush?"
"No rush. It's just that Jake wants me to come over today. I told him I might be able to."
"Why do you spend so much time with this Jacob kid?" she asked. Rose never met Jake. Rose and Alice have been in my whole life and so has Jacob, but they still never met.
"He's not a kid and well why can't I hang out with him. I spend a lot of time with you and Alice." I told her.
"Well yea. But he's a dude."
"Oh please Rose. Like you don't have any guy friends." Rose definitely hung out with guys. Its not that she wanted to but when some guys drool over you and follow you everywhere you go, I would sort of call that hanging out in a way.
"I do have guys friends. But spending all your time with Jacob shouldn't you guys be an item already. I mean. I'm sort of getting along with this guy. His name is Emmett." (remember guys. Bella only know Edwards name. she never knew jasper and Emmett's name)
"Back to the point of Jacob. We're just really good friends Rose. Nothing more or less."
"Yea. Okay. Listen Bella. If you want to get an experts advise listen to me. Sooner or later he's going to crack. He's going to get tired of being friends and ask you out already. And if you say no then he might just kill himself." Rose said
"Noooo he won't. Trust me Rose. Jacob and me are only friends. And will always just be friends. He doesn't think anything else." I told her. Rose rolled her eyes then looked ahead at the road.
"Whatever you say. You don't have to listen to me."
"Thank you-"
"But it'll do you good if you do." She said and continues driving. I'm right, right? I mean Jacob, he only accepts me as a friend and I only accept him as a friend. That's how it always was and how it always will be. Even though Jacob does come over a lot. And at times I may want him to stay longer. But I know for sure that I'm not ready to have a relationship with him. He's just my friend.
We finally got to the gym after a thousand red lights. And Rose's speed car.
"Thank goodness I'm still alive. I thought I wouldn't make it." I said to Rose, when we were both out of the car.
"Hey, don't blame me. It's not my fault they invented such a beautiful car with such high speed."
"You're like in love with your car. Its creepy."
"ha yea. I think I need to star seeing a therapist." She said. We grabbed our bags out of the back seat and walked inside the gym. This gym was huge. It had everything. Me and Rose walked up to the front desk and showed this lady "Chantal" our membership cards. She looked pretty, but sad. I wonder what happened to her.
This world should have a lot more happy people. We all shouldn't spend our lives sad. It's just a waste of time. Chantal saw our membership cards and let us go through. "So what do you want to go on first?" Rose asked.
"I think I'll go on the treadmill. You know, to work my legs." I laughed. I went to the locker room to put my gym bag in a locker and then I went to a treadmill and set the alarm to ring after 25min. Then I started walking a steady pace.
Rose went to the treadmill to the right of mine. The Jacob texted me.
j- Hey
b- hey:)
j- so do you think you can come over?
b- yea i--
"Who is this? Is this Jacob?" Rose took the phone away from me.
"Maybe. Why is it any of your business."
"Bellaaa. I told you. He's going to ask you out, and I know you would say no. Its best to stay away from him as long as possible and maybe he won't ask."
"Rose, will you stop it and just give me my phone back."
Rose whined but gave me my phone anyway. The I finished texting Jake.
b- yea I can come over. Its 10:00 right now. And I'm going to go eat lunch with Rose so ill probably be at your place around 1pm if that's okay.
j- yea that's fine. Don't worry about it. See you then:)
b- kay
After I finished texting Jake I put my phone in my pocket and just kept on walking on the treadmill, until I heard someone walk in through the entrance door. The person was talking to someone else and the voice sounded very familiar. I just couldn't remember who though.
I tried looking past the wall in between me and the door but I still couldn't see the person. "Rose do you hear that person talking?" I asked her. To see if we both might know. A smile light on her face.
"The deep voice. 'Cuz I know who the one is with the deep voice-"
"No the other one. The one with the soft and caring voice." I told her. The person started to walk in the room me and Rose were in. I just kept looking at the wall I was facing while on the treadmill. The boys were behind us now and I think I felt there eyes on me
And then all of a sudden it hit me. It was that boy Edward that I met at the Bowling alley. Oh my goodness. This couldn't be happening.
"Rose?" the boy with the deep voice called out. Both me and Rose looked back at the same time, but I wish I hadn't because Edwards eyes were on me. Rose smiled.
"Hi Emmett. What are you doing here? I didn't know you go here." Rose said. Then looked at me. "Oh. This is my friend Bella." She said. Emmett looked at me.
"Hey. It bowling girl, Eddie." Emmett said. And then I realized that this was the guy Rose was talking about in the car. Edward I could of sworn I thought just blushed a little. Rose got off the treadmill to give Emmett a hug. I didn't want keep walking and look like a moron so I got off too.
"Uhh. Hello Edward." I said after having the guts to come up with a conversation.
"Hey. I didn't know you come here."
"Yea. Every Saturday actually." I said. I looked at Rose who was now kissing Emmett. Edward noticed after I did.
"Emmett. Stop being such a pig. This is a gym not a make out room." Edward said.
"Sorry dude. But its hard to stay away when you have someone like this standing in front of you." Emmett said. He slapped Rose on the butt and Rose giggled. Okay, that was weird. I didn't even know Rose had a boyfriend in the first place. Edward just raised his eyebrow and looked away.
"So is this your first time coming?" I asked Emmett and not Edward. Only because I was afraid I would blush. Edward was starting to stare at me. Then automatically I started sweating out of nowhere. Sweat was pouring down my face and Edward was looking at me. Oh no. How was this happening. I didn't even sweat while I was on the treadmill. Odd.
Emmett looked at me a little weird. "Yea. It actually is. We used to go to a different gym downtown but we stopped going there because there weren't any ladies." He said with a smile.
"Oh well that's-uh-nice I guess." Did I just say that. Emmett wanted to see women and I said that to him. Rose noticed I was acting all weird and so she pinched me. Who that hell would pinch their friend when they should know that they're really nervous because some hot dude is staring at them. "Owww." I said.
Edward and Emmett had a puzzled look on their face. "Oh.. Um-Cramps." What the heck. Did I say cramps. Emmett almost bursted into laughter. "Uh.. From running too much on the treadmill. Yea..Not some other stuff..you might be thinking of...like-"
"So Emmett. What are you doing later today?" Rose decided to come in. Saving me. Edward was still staring at me then started talking to me while Rose and Emmett had their own little conversation.
"What's your last name bella?"
"Its Swan."
"Oh so your Chief Swan's daughter?"
"Yea. That's me. The girl who always has to obey the law no matter what. My dad sometimes still makes me wear a bicycle helmet. But I'm turning 18 soon. So ill eventually have my freedom." Edward laughed. Yay. " Hey me and Rose actually have to get going. But here's my number." I said. I wrote down my number on a piece of paper then gave it to him. He smiled then I grabbed Rose's hand and pulled her toward the locker room, having to separate her kiss from Emmett.
On my way to the locker room I can here Emmett yell "Alright. You da man." I laughed and relieved that I was now leaving. I went to the restroom while Rose was getting her gym bag in a locker. Then I heard some crying. I walked past the corner of the room and there was the girl from the front desk. Chantal. She was sitting in the corner of the restroom. She was crouched down and her head was face down on her knees.
"Um. Are you okay?" I asked the her. She looked up and her eyes were red [not a vampire people. She was crying remember]. Tears were dripping down her cheeks and then she looked back down again.
"No." She sobbed. I squatted down next to her.
"Can I ask what happened. Maybe I can help you feel better." I said. I was never the person to walk away when they are crying or sad or something. I always had to know what was going on and see if I can help. She looked up again.
"I don't think you can."
"We-"
"My parents just divorced and when I was going to tell my boyfriend. He just dumped me. Before I can tell him. He didn't even seem that interested in me anyway…Gosh im so stupid. I wasted all my time on him. And now I gotta go live with my dad." I looked into her eyes and could almost feel the pain she was going through. And I only felt half of it since I know what its like for parents to get divorced. But she also had her boyfriend dump her.
"I'm so sorry. I don't know what to say. But it'll all get better. My parents separated when I was 2. I lived with my mom my whole life and now I live with my dad. But trust me. It's going to be hard the first couple of weeks, maybe months but you know." I said. "the only boy that a girl could look up to and trust is her father. Even if they don't know much about teenage girls. They're always there for you."
She started to look a little better after what I just said. But I know this isn't going to help her so much. "Thanks a lot. I-um have to get back to work now. Hopefully I'll do good at this job while I have it." She said. I smiled a little smile and got up and headed for the door.
"You know. If you're ever looking for a job. There's always the bowling alley down the street. It's not much pay but I'm definite anyone can keep that job." I said. I smiled a little smile again and the left.
Me and Rose didn't get lunch after all. She's going to drop me off at Jacobs house so she can get ready at home for a date with Emmett. Rose and I hopped in the car and headed for Jacob's house.
Sorry its so long. I don't really like making such long chapters it's just I write a lot. I was actually going to include the visit with Jake in this chapter but it was going to be way to long so it didn't. :D
