Bella
The boys came out one by one, side by side. I lead against the wall, casually. When I saw Edward come out, I pull myself off the wall and skipped to him. "Great game, Edward" I cheered. He chuckled, "Thanks, I saw you cheer me on…by the way, nice clothes"
I looked down and remembered my outfit, "Yeah, it was your sister's idea…"
"Oh, Hey Eddie!" A nagging voice called out…it sounded like a bitch must be Lauren.
I turned my head slightly to see Lauren coming ours way with her cheerleader outfit still on. The skirt was short and yellow with a blue top that was cut at the bottom of her bellybutton. She had on a pair on BEBE Corsica Strappy Sandal.
"Hi, Lauren" Edward said looking away from her.
She walked right pass me and walked toward Edward. "Great game, Eddie," She said.
Edward covered his face, "Stop calling me that…and thanks"
She nodded and turned around. "Bye, Edward" Lauren whispered and walked away. As, she pass me she glared; do not trip her, do not trip her, do not trip her… I said repeatedly in my head when she was only inches from my feet.
She walked away toward the other bitches in her crowd. "Well Lauren is backing off" I said sarcastically. He sighed, "Just give it time…"
I heard the ground move under my feet, the football team was coming…GREAT!
"Edward! Edward! We are going out for dinner, coming?" One of the players yelled.
He shook his head, "Nope, I am just going to take Bella home"
They pouted, "It will be fun, getting drunk, going to dance with hot gir-," The boy looked at me…
"He mean dorks…" another player interrupted.
I crossed my arms around my chest, "So, are you going to dance with hot dorks…Edward?"
He shook his head.
"Okay, then," I turned turn the team, "Edward, does not want to go dance with hot dorks…goodbye"
They walked away not turning back once. "So, are we leaving or what?" I was irritated, about the whole 'hot girl' thing…
He nodded as he grabbed my waist and started walking…
"You know you can go and dance with hot dorks if you want to…" I said.
"No, they ask me that after every game" He confessed.
"Ah, I wonder who Alice is giving a ride home…" I said to myself.
We were silent for the whole ride to my house. "You want to come in for dinner?" I asked as the car stopped.
"Sure, but I have to help cook"
"Okay, only for us though…I made Charlie dinner before I left for the game"
We got out and walked inside to house. "Dad! I am home and Edward is making dinner for me"
Charlie came booming into the hall, "So you are dating me dear Bella"
"No sir, still friends…"
Charlie gave Edward a hard glare before walking back to the television. "So, what are you making me for dinner?" I asked. Edward raised his eyebrow, "Bella, we are supposed to cook together, besides you know I can't even cook a frozen pizza"
I giggled, "I want you to cook because I am tired of being the one to cook"
Edward walked to the kitchen, wanting me to follow. "What are you cooking for me tonight, Mr. Mason?" I asked as he took out a big pan.
He washed his hands, "I am making the spaghetti and you have to tell me what to do. Just pray I won't burn down your house…"
I laughed, "You better not burn down my house..."
Edward pulled on an apron, "So how do I make this stuff?"
I told him how to make the sauce. "You did really well at the game today," I noted as I walked toward the oven. Edward chuckled, "Thanks again"
Edward throws the wooden spoon in the pan and walked away. "What are you doing?" I asked grabbing the spoon. "The dishes" He said running water over the few dirty dishes.
I rolled my eyes, "You can't leave your sauce on high if you are going to do something else and just to let you know wood attract fire…"
Edward smiled, "I must have forgot that part"
I stirred the sauce one more time before putting the top back on and turning the eye of the stove to low. "I am about go to my room for a minute, come up if you need anything and Emmett should be home soon" I said, my hand went through my hair as I walked out the small kitchen.
"Bella! How do you know when your sauce is done?" Edward yelled from the kitchen.
"When you taste it and it taste good…Duh," I rolled my eyes and run upstairs.
I pushed my door open and went straight to my closet. I needed to get out of these clothes; I found my blue and pink polka-dotted pajama pants and a plain pink shirt.
I heard footsteps coming up the stairs, "Bella, quick question…should my sauce have a big bubble in it, because I want to pop it," Edward shouted as he though my door open.
"Edward…did you leave the food on high again!" I yelled at him.
He bit his lip, "Oops…"
I jogged down the stair and flew into the kitchen, only to see the bubble Edward was talking about getting bigger. "Oh my, Edward" I yelled. He came flooding into the room, "Bella…It. is. Going. To. Pop!" He said through breathes.
I hurry to the pan pulling Edward with me. He grabbed the spoon and pocked the bubble. "Edward stop acting like 5 year old!" I yelled snatching the spoon from him.
"Bella…"
"What?"
That is when it happened…the bubble popped all over the kitchen. "It popped" Edward finished is sentence.
I wiped the spaghetti sauce off of my eyes so I could see him. I was about to snap him out but when I saw how he looked I just laughed.
"Edward, you have spaghetti sauce all over you!" I giggled.
Charlie came charging in the room, "What in gods name happen to my kitchen?"
I poked Edward, "He did it!"
"I don't care who it…cleaned it up!" Charlie said walking away back to the television.
Edward looked at me, "This is all your fault!"
I tipped my head to the side, acting as if I was thinking "Your right" I giggled.
He wiped all of the sauce off his face and throw it to the floor, "Then you clean up"
I ran my hand though my hair, "Oh my god, I have spaghetti sauce in my hair!"
Edward grabbed 2 mops and two bucks and filled them with hot water. He set them on the floor and put a few drops of soap.
"At least you know how to do something…" I mumbled.
Edward wiped some more sauce off of him and started walking toward me. "What did you say Bella?"
I backed away, "Nothing…"
I was pinned to the wall. He smashed the sauce on my head, "I don't think it was nothing Bella…"
"My hair! Edward Cullen, hasn't your mom ever told you to play nice with other children?"
"Nope, I guess I missed that lesson"
I pressed my hand on my heart, "I am hurt…all we have been through, I helped you pass test, I cheered you on at your home games and I am faking that I am your girlfriend…and this is how you repay me" I pouted.
He acted ashamed, "I am sorry Bella"
I quickly wiped some sauce off the floor and throw it in his face, "Serves you right!"
He wiped his face again and throw his arm up in surrender, "Okay, we are even…can we clean this up now"
I nodded and leaned down to pick up the mop. I turned around to see Edward looking at me, more like my butt.
"Edward, it is very fluttering that you want to see my ass and all but I really want to get this kitchen cleaned up…"
He blushed, "Oh, sorry Bella! I was…um…"
I giggled, "It is okay," I gave him a playful wick and throw him the mop.

After, two hours of cleaning the kitchen, Emmett came home with Rose. They did not really ask why we were covered in sauce; they just ran upstairs to do 'homework'.
I told Edward to take a shower; he did. I washed his clothes while he was taking his shower. I placed the clean clothes outside the bathroom and went downstairs to make grill cheese sandwiches.
Edward came in the kitchen. I come see he did not dry his body fully. His muscles popped out of his shirt and his hair was still wet. He looked like a real model. "Bella, it is not nice to stare…hasn't your father told you that before" He chuckled.
"Sorry!" I blurted out.
"Yummy, grilled cheese…are they done?"
I nodded and placed them on the table, "Dig in…"
He grabbed a side plate and pressed three grill-cheeses on it, "You didn't have to say anything"
I laughed and walked out the kitchen. I grabbed my clothes from off my bed and walked into the bathroom. I quickly turned on the shower and got out of my dirty clothes. I walked into the shower and ran the water over my head.
I washed away all the thought I had about Edward earlier. After my shower, I put my clothes on and walked out the bathroom. Edward was done with his sandwiches and was washing the dishes.
I looked at the clock over the table, 10:45pm. "Wow Edward, it is almost 11:00…you should get going" I rested my hands on my hips. "Yeah, your right. Esme must be worried" He dried his hand.
We walked to the door together. I opened the door for him, "Well, I will see you tomorrow"
"Goodnight Bella"
I waved, "Night"
I closed the door behind him. I said goodnight to Charlie and told Emmett to stop playing around and go to sleep. We said goodnight to Rose and I walked to my room. I turned off the lights, climbed into the bed and fell into a deep sleep.
"Wake up Bella! This is Alice and…I am outside your door! Get your lazy ass up and open this door!"
My eyes popped open. I looked at my SideKick; new voice message from Alice. I replayed to message, why the hell is she outside. I looked at my clock…better question, why is she at my door in 5:30 in the morning!
I got out my bed and run downstairs to greet my crazy friend. "Alice! It is five in the morning…did you take pills or did you lose your whole head," I said with my eyes still close.
I heard a deep chuckle, "Alice, I think Bella is sleep walking…"
"Bella! Open your eyes!" Alice yelled.
I opened one eyes, only to see right in front of me a wide-awake Edward and Alice. I didn't feel like yelling at them to go home so I let them in. I walked them through that hall way and into the living room.
I fell to the couch and grabbed the small pillow. I closed my eyes and crawled into a ball, "Goodnight…" I muttered through the pillow. "Edward, do the honors," Alice said.
My whole body left the couch and I was placed on Edward's shoulder. "Put me down Edward. Why are you guys here?" I started punching Edward's back. "Alice wants to pick your clothes and I am only here because she paid me," Edward explained.
I snorted, "How much money does she pay you to do this to me!"
Edward smiled, "50 bucks a hour"
I glared at Alice as Edward took me upstairs; he gently placed me on my bed. "Okay, Bella I have some clothes for you to try"
I looked at the door, trying to figure out my changes of escaping. Alice grabbed the bag and placed in on my bed, this is my chance. I jumped off the bed and ran down the stairs. "Bella!" Alice yelled.
I heard footsteps coming down the stairs. I walked to the nearest closet and closed the door. "Bella? I know you are in here…Come out" Edward's voice whispered. I backed away from the door but my foot slipped on a shirt, "Shit" I hissed, I fell to the floor.
The door flow open, "Bella you okay?" Edward knee down next to me. I nodded, "My butt hurt but I will get over it," I said pushing myself up.
Edward pulled me closer, "You shouldn't have ran…"
"Yeah, it was my only chance though"
He chuckled as we walked back up the stairs. Alice was tapping her foot, "Bella, we only have an hour to get you ready…Stop playing around strip your clothes off"
I looked at Edward, "Yeah this is you cue to leave the room"
"Oh, okay…I will be in the living room"
He closed the door behind him. I took my clothes off and jumped in the shower. After my peaceful shower, I brushed my teeth and walked out the bathroom with my towel over me.
Alice handed me a tight blue shirt that read 'Bite Me' on it and a pair of jeans. I put the clothes on and added the silver hoop earrings and a charm bracelet. "I bought that charm for you," Alice added.
I looked at the empty charm bracelet, "Thanks"
She walked toward me and touched the bracelet for a minute, "There, your first charm!"
I looked at the bracelet only to see a small charm that was shaped like shoe. I giggled, "Thank you, Alice," I gave her a hug.
She smiled, "You know you are my best friend. Now let work on your hair"
--- ---
She was done with me in about 20 minutes. "Okay Bella, you are done…let's get to school" Alice said pulling my arm.
Edward was talking with Emmett about football. "Guys, we are going to be late for school," I noted, they looked at me. I grabbed my SideKick and put it in my back pocket. I looked back at them, Edward was still staring at me, "It isn't nice to stare Edward…"
Alice smiled, "Aw, how cute…"
Alice and I were still giggling when we got to Edward's car. We droved in silence, Edward parked the car and we all got out. Edward instantly grabbed my waist and we walked to the door. The football team was talking to Lauren.
They walked toward us, "Hey Edward and Bella"
"Hey" We said together.
Silence…
"So, Lauren pointed something to us…"
I glared at Lauren, "What is that?"
"Um…have you guys ever kissed?"
"Yes" Edward said at the same time when I said "No"
They looked confuse.
"Um, we have kissed" Edward said.
Lauren had a evil smirk on her face, "Then let's see some action…"
Edward and I looked at each other.
Damn that Lauren…
