Chapter 8: Persuasive.
An: Awe, I love all you guys, you're the greatest.
Well this is was interesting; He was starting at me like I was a piece of meat.
Melanie smiled evilly at him, and in a very cold voice said "Michael, long time no stalk."
He ignored her and turned to me "Bella is it?"
"No, It Holly-red-bear," Mel said with sarcasm.
"I didn't ask you freak, piss off, so I can talk to Bella." He snapped at her, but I could clearly see he was scared for his life which really made me wonder; what did Mel do to him?
"Oh, no, you did not just say that to my new best friend." I said to him. His face went white, what can I say, I think it runs in the family.
"Bella you're not best friends with her, are you?" He asked.
"So brave yet so stupid come on Bella, let's get out of here." Mel said, and we did. As soon as we pulled out, we were laughing hysterically.
"I really want to know what you did to him." I told Mel, she grinned. "Let's just say it's going to be pretty hard to stalk you, I'll tell you the story tomorrow." And before I realized it we were at Suzy's house.
I heard Lauren screaming inside "But you said, mother!"
"Have fun Bella, see you at school tomorrow." She said as she leaned forward kissing my forehead.
"Bye mom," I bid farewell to her.
"You're making me feel old," She said with a smile and roared off in the opposite direction of the Cullen home.
"Lauren I've had quite enough of your attitude about this." Suzy yelled back.
I let myself in trying to go unnoticed, when unexpectedly Lauren ran in to my arms sobbing.
"There…there," It came out like a question while I awkwardly patted her blonde hair.
"Oh don't go running to Bella Lauren. You're acting like a child. It's only going to be a month." Suzy said more calmly now since I was there.
"Um…what's going on?" I asked.
"Lauren doesn't want me to go on a month long trip to Greece with my friends. It's because she'll be stuck here with my husband!" She yelled the last sentence.
"Mother you need to be here, Prom is coming, and I need your help with getting Edward Cullen to take me." She whined. And here I thought it was something important.
"You should go Suzy, have fun." I told her she smiled brightly, and Lauren pulled back and slapped me with her perfectly manicured nails.
"Bitch" I snarled, like a real snarl, I felt like I wanted to bite her right then. That would teach her.
"B-B-Bella…what's w-wrong with y-you're eyes?" Lauren asked nervously. I ran up the stairs to the small bathroom, probably faster than they thought I could, faster than I thought I could.
Once behind the closed doors, I saw my eyes they were bright blood red. I rubbed my eyes again; they didn't go back to normal.
"Bella are you okay?" Suzy asked through the door.
"Ya I'm fine." I said opening the door. She wasn't observant enough to notice my eyes.
"Oh good so I leave tomorrow, at three in the morning, Billy, Charlie's friend, should be around her with his son Jacob." I just nodded.
The night was long, another sleepless night, Lauren talked on her cell for hours to her boyfriend, for the moment, Tyler. When three rolled about Suzy was gone. At six I got up left my hair down and I chose I bit more moderate clothing today, black converse, skinny jeans, a long off the shoulder t-shirt with a neon green smiley face on it.
When I got to school, with a very bitchy Lauren, Mel ran to the Sudan and yanked the door open and pulled me out before Lauren even finished parking. Well if I thought she was bitchy before…
"Watch skank, not everybody is made of money!" Lauren yelled at Mel when she got out.
Mel closed her eyes slowly inhaling then said with ice cold venom "What did you call me?"
Edward grabbed me away from Mel, while Chuck went to her.
"Mel let it go." He said grabbing her arm. Lauren looked uncertain then put on a false bravado.
"Ya, You heard me I called you a skank. You sure look like one." Lauren added with a sneer.
Mel glared at Lauren.
"Chuck, stop her." Alice said at vampire speed.
"Now you've done it Lauren, you have pissed me off for the last fucking time." Melanie snarled. Just then it started hailing badly. Chuck grabbed Mel hard and dragged her over to us.
"Mel you know I love you, but she's human. They are bound to piss you off. Take it out on Tanya if anybody." He said vampire speed as everybody hurried into the cafeteria because of the hail. Scowling she stocked off to her first classroom with Chuck trailing her. Then the freak hail storm subsided and I saw Mel and Chuck kissing. Gross.
"Nothing better than vampire anger first thing in the morning, wouldn't you say so Rose?" Emmett asked with a smile. She just rolled her eyes.
My first few classes went by no problem, or no freaky weather like it suddenly getting hot, or the sun coming out from behind the thick storm clouds happened.
Then there was gym, and that meant hip-hop. I don't think this guy could actually dance, but his shoes were impressive.
"This is a joke" Edward whispered to me as the instructor showed us all how to point our arms.
"You think?" I said back.
"Want to just ditch, pretend like you hurt yourself and I'll take you to the nurse office?"
"How about I just 'faint'"
"Okay." And so I did. But I didn't think he'd actually let me fall to the ground.
"Oh my, Bella are you okay?" He asked when I said "Ow".
"That bloody hurt." I said rubbing my head sending him a glare. The instructor looked concerned.
"Can I take her to the nurse's office?" Edward asked. The guy nodded. Instead of letting me walk, Edward actually picked me up, bridal style.
"Oh my god, Edward and Bella are like so a couple he's never even waved to anyone that's not his family before." I heard a girl tell another girl. I just rolled my eyes
"Edward I'm fine, I can walk." I told him once we were out of earshot. He looked down at me and grinned.
"Let's just ditch the rest of the day."
"Why?" I asked
"Because we can." And so we did. He drove us to the Cullen's place, not letting me walk on my own, even when we got to there.
We watched a movie, laughed a lot, and freaked Esme out by being home early.
Then he led me up to his black and gold room it was very comfortable.
I thought crossed my mind.
"Hey Edward?" I asked as we were listening to classical music while lying on his bed staring at the ceiling.
"Ya Bella?"
"What did Alice mean yesterday, when she said 'that might not be the greatest idea'?"
"Well" He said looking at me; I turned my head to look at him.
"I was thinking that maybe because you are practically one of us now, that we'd pretend to be a couple just so Tanya won't try so hard to 'win my heart'." He admitted, I thought about that. It was doable, very doable. Hell I'd even do it if she wasn't coming.
"I can do that." I said.
"You can, can you now?" He said with a sexy smirk on his face.
"I don't know, you're questioning is making me change my mind." I teased jokingly.
He pulled me over so I was under him.
"I'll change it back for you then." And he kissed me and kept kissing me. To tell you the truth it was getting hot, even if it felt like he was made of ice.
I flipped him over, which I was surprised I could do, and straddled him while kissing him. His hands went to my shirt and that was off. And I just couldn't stand having him dressed more than me, so I ripped off his shirt, literally. He flipped me back over, his hands were moving to my jeans when I heard someone clear their throat.
I looked up and saw Esme standing in the doorway, smiling I might add, with a strawberry blonde haired woman standing in the doorway beside her.
"Oh, I'm sorry you two, I'll give you some privacy. Come on Tanya I'll show you Carlisle's office." Esme said leading her away then winking at us when Tanya couldn't see.
Edward pulled away from my lips with a smile on his face.
"You are very persuasive." I told him. He smiled brighter.
"Come on Bella; Let us go say an official 'hi' to Tanya and her family." He said handing me my shirt. Then he went to go get another from his closet while I just threw the ripped one away.
