Okay, firstly I am sooooo sorry for like disappearing of the face of the earth. I have valid reasons butI'm not going to bother writing a long speach, so in short; HOMEWORK, EXAMS, STUPID FAMILY AND GETTING MY LAPTOP CONFISCATED BY SAID FAMILY. There, done :)

Now personally I think this chapter was rubbish, but whatever. The next one will be better promise.

And I would like to shout out to Claire (Edward's Doll) For just being cool in general, you rock :)

Chapter 5

Who the hell like's Romeo and Juliet?

(Bella pov)

I still had the hint of blush in my cheeks when we sat down for dinner. I, of course, ended up sitting across from Edward and trying to avoid looking at him. Conversation flowed around me, and it seemed that Edward and I were the only ones not talking.

"So Bella, how do you like school?" asked Esme, maternally.

"It's good I guess" I answered with a small smile.

"Was everyone nice?" She questioned. My smile faltered slightly.

"Yeah everyone was er...nice" I said. Edward gave me a quick, confused look from across the table then looked back down at his plate.

Esme then moved onto questioning Emmett about school. Of course he gave back a long animated answer that had them laughing. My head was too preoccupied to listen. I mean, jeez, was Edward bi-polar? One minute he had a go at me and was making snide comments and the next he was catching me when I fell. I'd only known him a day and he was doing my head in.

"Edward, Jasper can you help clear up?" Asked Esme, as she started to collect plates. Emmett, always the gentleman, grabbed the plates from her, smiled and said;

"I'll help as well, especially seeing as you cooked" Esme smiled up at Emmett with soft eyes.

"Why thank you dear, it'll give us grown-ups some time to talk" She said ushering Carlisle and Charlie into the living room.

Emmett, Edward and Jasper continued clearing the table and left us to go into the kitchen. I fiddled with the hem of my shirt picking at a loose thread. I could sense that Rosalie and Alice conversing silently around me.

"C'mon Bella, let's go up to my room" said Alice. I looked up to see her and Rosalie smiling at me. I got up and followed them up to her room. Taking the stairs even more carefully this time. We entered Alice's pink room and I took my seat on the floor.

"So Bella" Rosalie started "What do you really think of school?"

"Yeah c'mon tell us the truth" Alice added.

"What do you mean the truth?" I asked with wide eyes.

"Oh c'mon Bella" Rosalie said with a role of her eyes "it was obvious, you're a really bad liar" I huffed and crossed my arms.

"Honestly, it was just okay" I said with a shrug of my shoulders.

"So what happened in Biology then? Why did you run out after?" Probed Alice. My stomach fell. Edward had told them. Crap.

"What do you mean?" I asked innocently, scrunching up my hands in my sleves.

"Well there must have been some reason you ran out so quickly, and Emmett was also confused so we just figured..." I looked down at the ground, biting my lip. They seemed like nice people. People I could trust and be friends with.

So Edward hadn't told them?

"A blonde girl, said some stuff" I admitted

"Lauren?" Asked Alice. Out the corner of my eye I saw Rosalie scowl. I just shrugged at Alice's question.

"I dunno, she didn't say her name"

"It was probably Lauren. Don't worry about her Bella, she's a bitch" Said Rosalie.

"What did she say?" Questioned Alice.

"The usual stuff, me cutting myself, being an emo, etcetera, etcetera"

"Eugh people here are so narrow-minded. Honestly Bella don't worry about her. She's pretty much the school slut" Said Rosalie with glee. "She's going out with that vile Mike Newton"

"Really?" I asked astounded "Well good luck to her, he asked me out earlier"

Alice and Rosalie laughed shortly.

"She deserves it" Said Rosalie "She's always bitching about people then being nice to them. So two faced"

"True, also did you know that she wanted Edward for ages? She didn't get the message for till Edward finally snapped and shouted at her in front of the whole cafeteria. Maybe that's why she doesn't like you, she might have seen you hanging out with us at lunch. She tried to be our friend for ages, but Rosie here saw right through her." Said Alice laughing along with Rosalie.

"Speaking of Edward," Said Rosalie with a twinkle in her eye "I think you two would make a cute couple"

"Excuse me!" I spluttered.

"She's right, you two would totally...click" She mused.

"You've actually got to be kidding me" I asked. Surely they were joking...surely? But the looks on their faces told me they were serious. Deadly.

"C'mon Bella, you two would make such a cute couple!" Squealed Alice.

"Okay. Firstly, the little contact I have had with Edward has been sarcastic and he just seems eternally moody."

"Bella, don't take this the wrong way, but you seem a little moody right now" Joked Rosalie.

I scowled "Well, you guys are making ridiculous accusations. I've barely spoken to him twice and one of those was when he climbed through my window and got all annoyed and frustrated with me."

Alice and Rosalie's eyes widened. I realised my mistake as they started smiling manically.

"Edward climbed through your window!?!" Grinned Alice

"Why did he climb through your window!?!" Squealed Rosalie at the same time.

"Er, yes he did, and he did it to return my school-books that I left behind"

"That's so romantic, it's like Romeo and Juliet" Alice said with a dreamy look in her eyes.

"Please say you did not just compare me to Juliet" I asked appalled.

"What's wrong wirth Juliet?" Asked Rosalie.

"Puh-lease, they are the most cliché, fickle couple in the history of existence." I exclaimed.

"Bella, you need some romance in your life, desperately" moaned Rosalie.

"She's right, don't worry we'll help you with that, girls nights in including; girly movies, pop corn, makeovers and manicures...the list goes on" Smiled Alice.

"Erm, yay?" I half questioned.

Alice just grinned manically at me and Rosalie just look placated.

"I'm glad you could open up to us Bella" Rosalie said, with her smile still in place.

"Me too" I admitted "To be honest I didn't think I would. I mean you guys are way different from me and I thought you were just talking to me out of pity or because I was Emmett's sister. But you guys are really nice, thanks. Even if you do think that Edward and I are like Romeo and Juliet, which is just stupid" I said with a shake of my head.

"Aww we already love you Bells. Even if you dress a little different. We don't care, I mean we put up with Edward"

"Thanks, so you're just going to put up with me" I joked.

"BELLA TIME TO GO!" Charlie called from downstairs. I was actually disappointed to leave. I didn't think I would actually get along with Rosalie and Alice but they were really nice.

We walked down the stairs, chatting. I successfully managed to make it downstairs and everyone was gathered by the door, saying goodbye's.

"Bye Bella" Said Esme pulling me in for a hug, "I hope to see you around here lots" She said with a smile.

"Don't worry, I think Alice and Rosalie are going to make sure of that" I said with a laugh.

"You seem happier" She noted, happily.

"Yeah I guess I am" I shrugged.

"Bye Bella" Alice said rushing forward and hugging me.

"Alice, I need air to live" She pulled back sheepishly, apologizing.

Rosalie came over and gave me a dainty hug and said goodbye. We left the house with another chorus of goodbye's from behind us.

As we were walking down the path Emmett decided to strike up conversation.

"So Bells, you had fun with the girls?"

"Surprisingly I did" I answered.

"Well" Emmett said opening the door, smiling "guess you got two new best friends"

"guess so, well, I'm knackered. See you two tomorrow goodnight" I said giving them both a kiss on the cheek.

"Nite" Answered Emmett

"Night Bells" Said Charlie with a crinkly, toothy grin "and I'm glad you're enjoying yourself"

Sorry it's so short, but I wanted you guys to have something to read :)
