Hiya! Thanks for continuing on with my story!
I think I've been forgotten..Sorry for not posting so much!
This will be juicy..I think
Edward's POV
I rolled my eyes as Bella muttered to herself about how she looked like an idiot in the brand less-jeans and a plain gray sweater. "Bella..You look great..That's how most girls dress in Philadelphia anyway." She sighed, and picked up her purse.
"Alright Edward. Let's go!" She said enthusiastically. We were going on a trip to Philadelphia for a week. We were planning to buy new clothes for Bella and get some alone time to ourselves. I was wearing a simple pair of jeans and a t-shirt. It was expected to be cloudy there the whole time, so I wouldn't need to wear too many clothes to hide my skin.
I got in my Volvo car, opening the passenger door for Bella. She hopped in, and I started the engine. We said our good-byes to the rest of my family, and I stepped on the gas pedal. We took off, laughing at jokes and talking.
I stopped the car abruptly, startling Bella and knocking her forward. I couldn't hear from a spot a couple meters behind..It was quiet. I couldn't hear the trees or the bushes in that small area.
"Edward?" Bella asked, touching my arm.
"Sorry, Bella..I thought I saw a squirrel on the road." I lied, smiling at her.
"Oh.." She leaned on the seat, and looked ahead. "Well, no squirrel here.." She squinted.
"Oh..My mistake." I whispered, driving again. Because of the fast speed of my driving, we got there in four hours. We got off and headed for a restaurant first.
"I'd like..a cheeseburger, please." Bella said, looking at the waitress. The waitress nodded and looked at Edward eagerly.
"Would you like anything, sir?" She asked flirtily, her pen ready in hand.
"No..thanks." I waved her off, and she trudged off into the kitchen.
"So..Bella.." I coughed, clearing my throat. People were staring at them.
"Oh..Edward? Can I go to the bathroom for a second?" She asked, looking at the women's room eagerly.
I chuckled. "Of course." I watched her go to the bathroom quickly. I was confronted by a group of blonde teenagers. "Hello.." I said, raising an eyebrow.
The girl blushed. "Hey..Just wondering if you would like some cute girls to accompany you." She said, probably trying to act seductive.
"No, thanks." I stood up and picked up my sweater. I told the waitress to pack the burger and waited for Bella to come out. It was strangely quiet in there. I knocked once, waiting for a response.
"Wait, Edward." Bella's voice sounded strained and forced.
"Bella?" I asked, shaking the doorknob. It was locked. "Open the door!" I demanded, ignoring the staring eyes behind my back.
"It's alright, Edward..I'm having..my..period…." She mumbled. She opened the door, and walked out, sweaty and pale.
"Really, Bella? Are you lying to me?" I shook her lightly.
She shook her head. "No…" She walked out of the restaurant, waiting beside the car.
I decided to believe in her, and walked out. I thought I saw a hint of red in the corner of my eye.
I hope you guys like it!
