Chapter 9

"And you called him out on his fly being unzipped?" Rose asked me from across the table.

"Yep." I said popping the 'p'.

"Wow. I didn't think it would work that fast." Alice said.

"I know me either. But I'm glad it did. The sooner I get him to fall in love with me the better. I could play it off as being a summer romance before I go to college." I said.

Alice, Rose, and I were sitting at a table in the back of the diner. If was a Thursday afternoon and we were just getting something to eat from our day of shopping.

I have to admit the only reason we came here was because of the new guy Jessica introduced me too. And she wasn't lying. He was HOT! And his accent was just icing on the cake. I gushed about him to Alice and Rose and they wanted to come see for themselves so we were eating greasy hamburgers and French fries just so we can see his beautiful face.

"So what's on the agenda for tomorrow?" Alice asked.

"Well I overheard Emmett talking to him on the phone and it sounds like Edward is going work out at the fitness center. So I thought I would just ride over there with my mother telling her some lame excuse of wanting to stay in shape. I'll blow his mind in just my sports bra and spandex shorts." I said with a satisfying grin on my face.

"Thanks brilliant! He won't know what to do with himself." Rose said.

"That's the idea." I said. And right then our waiter from heaven had arrived refilling our drinks.

"Can I get you girls anything?" he said with a panty soaking British accent.

"No Robert we're fine for right now. But if we need you we'll let you know." Rose said in a very flirty voice, and adding a wink. He just smiled at her and walked away. I couldn't help but laugh. He was clearly not interested in her. Witch was funny because Rose usually has guys falling all over her. The fact that this hottie didn't seem interested made her feel unwanted. I know it bothered her.

She finally broke things off with Royce finding him in the act of cheating on her. I was so proud of her. But I was in one of my depressing states so Alice was the one to comfort her. I felt bad that I couldn't be there for her.

"I think he might be gay." Rose said once Robert, who he asked to call him Rob, walked away.

"Just because he doesn't give you the time of day Rose doesn't mean he's gay."

"Oh please who doesn't want this?" Rose said pushing up her breast.

"Maybe he has a girlfriend?" I said.

"It's possible. Someone like that can't be single straight or not." Alice said.

"What ever. I will make sure to show him a good time before the summer is over." Rose said with a smile.

"So back to things actually worth talking about. What should I do with my hair for my date Saturday night?" Alice said. She just told us yesterday that she was 'talking' to someone, and that he asked her out on their first official date. I was surprised to hear this. Alice wasn't the type to have boyfriends. She just liked having a good time. She would go out on dates but nothing too serious. She always said how she didn't need a man to tell her what to do. I guess a lot of that comes from me and Edward's relationship.

"Well you could put it up or leave it down. It's not really that long to do anything to." Rose said. I could tell she was still pissed off at Rob.

"Just wear it down like you always do. Just be yourself." I said. Alice had what we liked to call a pixie cut. It was very short but she could get a small pony tail out of it.

"Okay so what should I wear? Come one people this is important!" Alice yelled making the couple behind us turn around and look at us. Alice just looked at them and motioned with her figure to turn around. They looked pissed but they did what she asked. Even stranger knew not to mess with Alice.

"Well I'm sure you are going to change every four seconds while you are getting dressed so it really is pointless to decide on that right now." I said.

"But should I wear a dress or jeans or a skirt." Alice said freaking out. She must really like this guy.

"How about if I'm not doing any BTR then I'll come help you choose." I said.

"BRT?" Rose asked.

"Yea BRT. Better than Revenge. Guys didn't we discuss code names so no one will hear us and figure everything out?" I said looking at them. Did they even listen to me when I talk to them? I spent an hour coming up with that name.

"Whatever Bella. I think giving it a code name is stupid." Rose said.

"Oh come on Rose she's just having a little fun. I happen to think that it's an awesome name Bella." Alice said.

"Thank you." I said.

We finished up our meals and called Rob over for the check. We each paid our half and got up to leave, but not before telling Rob goodbye one more time.

"Bye Rob see you soon." Alice said.

"Goodbye Alice, Bella, Rosalie." Rob said. Hearing my name fall from his lips made me go weak in the knees.

"Bye" we all said at the same time before walking over to Rose's car and leaving the diner.

I got home and saw my parents watching TV. I told them I already ate dinner and went up to my room to unpack all the stuff I bought today. Most of it was for Edward. I bought a lot of things in blue because that was his favorite color on me. I even went as far as buying dark blue bra and underwear set, but I knew he would never see it. I wasn't planning on having sex with Edward. I don't think I could take being that close with him.

I decided to turn on my iPod for some back ground music. And I smiled when I heard the song blast from my speakers. It was Revenge by the Plain White T's. I had downloaded the song a while back because I liked the beat to it. Who knew that it would come in handy one day? I started to sing along.

I don't even care how your gonna feel
Cause I've already tried to give you something real
So go ahead and get mad never talk to me again
I don't even care cause I got my

Revenge
Revenge
Revenge
Got my revenge

One night you're begging me to stay
The next night you push me away
I don't need your promising to give it up
Is too late cause now I'm giving up

Revenge
Revenge
Got my revenge

I had my back turned and started to dance and pump my fist in the air while I sang. I had the dark blue bra still in my hand when I turned around. I screamed at the top of my lungs and my heart started to accelerate when I saw them looking at me.

"What are you doing in here?" I said going turn down the music.

"Well we heard something like a cat dying so we came to check it out. But it was clearly just you singing." Emmett said. Edward was standing there on the side him. I wasn't prepared for this. I had all my Edward meet ups all planed out of what I was going to say and do. I wasn't expecting him to be here tonight. I didn't have a plan for this. He was really going to make this difficult wasn't he?

"Ha ha very funny now get out." I said.

"Okay okay come on Edward."

"I'll be there in a minute." He said. Emmett walked away with a smile on his face. Now I was alone in my room with Edward once again. I got an uneasy feeling in the pit of my stomach. I didn't have anything planned for this.

"Hi." He said leaning against the door frame.

"Hi." I said back. I was still out of breath from them scaring me.

"I liked the performance." He said with a smile. There was that smile again. Focus Bella.

"Yea well I do it every Thursday night and a repeat performance on Saturdays." I said smiling back at him and twisting a piece of hair between my figures. Two can play at this game Cullen.

"Well I'll have to come check it out sometime." He said.

"Yea you should." I said turning around and grabbing a pile of clothes of my floor and walking to put them in the hamper. I made sure to sway my hips as I walked. I saw him checking me out from the corner of my eye.

"So you went shopping today?" Edward asked ruffling through the bags on my bed. I wasn't worried. All the clothes were for him to see anyway.

"Yea with Alice and Rose." I said walking over to him.

"Nice." He said holding up a box of tampons. Oops okay that wasn't for him to see.

"Give me those." I said taking them from his hand and putting them away in my bathroom. I walked back over to him once again.

He stopped looking through the bags and looked at me instead. He just stared at me for a long time. I could see he was nervous. He always blinked too many times when he was nervous. And he put his hands through his hair just to conform it for me. I picked up on his habits very quickly in our relationship. He closed his eyes and took a deep breath. Then he opened them and looked at me again.

"Bella can I take you out sometime?" he asked. Okay I wasn't expecting that. I defiantly didn't have a plan for that.

"What?...Wwhyy?" I stuttered. I was blown away by his forwardness.

"I want to take you out. Maybe to a movie or dinner. I just want to show you that I'm willing to be friends with you." He said.

"Oh." I said. I didn't know what else to say. Should I say yes? Or should I say no and make up an excuse. I was so totally lost. He knocked me from my element. I didn't know what to do.

"It would really make me happy if you said 'yes'. I really want to be friends. I want to make things better between us. I want there to be no more fights or awkward conversations." He said.

"Oh." I said once again. I still didn't know what to do. He was good at this.

"Please Bella." He said. He took my hands in his and gave them a squeeze. At that moment I was truly at a loss for words. Nothing came out of my mouth. I want to scream and run away. I needed to take a few minutes to think without him looking so hot and sexy standing in front of me holding my hands in his.

"Please." He whispered. Then he came closer to me and placed a kiss on my cheek and rested his head on my shoulder and placing small kisses along my neck.

I was screwed. I was putty under his touch. I closed my eyes and just focused on his lips on me once again. It felt the same like nothing had changed between us. It felt like it did when we were in high school. And he knew how much I liked it. I small moan gave from my lips while a smile appeared on my face without my permission. I was enjoying this. And I wasn't supposed to. I was supposed to make him fall in love with me not the other way around.

He stopped all movements and looked up at me. I knew he was waiting for an answer. I looked into his eyes and was lost once again. I was caving under his control. This wasn't the plan.

"Yes." I said in a whisper. He smiled at me and gave me a hug. Without thinking I wrapped my arms around him and inhaled his scent. He smelled so good. That was a bad thing.

"Thank you Bella." He said pulling away but not breaking away from me. He still had his arms around my waist and mine around his.

"You pick the when and where and text me the details." He said placing a kiss on my forehead, and unwrapping himself from me. I missed the heat the moment he let go. And that was bad.

He walked out the door and closed it leaving me confused and wanting him to kiss me like that again. That was a very bad thing.

"Oh and Bella?" Edward said popping his head through the door.

"I like the bra. You should wear it on our date." He said smiling away and closing the door once again.

I looked to see what he was talking about and saw that he dark blue bra was slug around my arm. It was there the entire time and I didn't even notice it. I blushed and quickly threw it on the ground.

I was screwed. There was no way my plan was going to work if he acted like that. I hated myself for giving into him so easy and quickly. I sat on my bed thinking about what had just happened. Edward asked me if he could take me out. And I said yes. How could I let this happen? I quickly called Alice to tell her everything and she was just as shocked as I was. She didn't know what to say. She thinks I should call the entire plan off. Maybe that was for the best. Maybe I wasn't ready for this kind of thing just yet.

I hung up the phone with Alice and went take a shower to relax. But all my relaxation went away went I realized one important detail that I missed earlier.

When Edward came back into my room he said that I should wear the bra on our 'date'. Friends didn't take friends on dates. Did he think this was a date? Was it a date?

I pondered this for a few minutes until I came up with a solution.

I was going on a date with Edward Cullen.

AN: I know this is short, but I've been busy with work and school is about to start up again.

So tell me what you think of Rob. The new waiter at the diner. And yes my inspiration came from none other than Robert Pattinson himself. I couldn't help myself. hehe:)

Your reviews are all so amazing. They make me very happy so keep 'em coming. Sometimes I don't have time to respond to every one but I see them all. And I love you all for them.

Oh and if you want to check out the song. It's plainly called "Revenge" by the Plain White T's. I love them and this song. I actually do have it on my iPod. I got it when it first came out and it was just luck that I would ever use it for inspiration. Funny how things work.

Until next time….
