I don't own anything Twilight..
BPOV..
It's been four hours and i still hadn't got Alice a present. It was now 2 o'clock, and i was getting really hungry. My stomache was growling and i needed energy.
So i went into a cafe and waited in the long queue...
10 minutes later i finally got to the front of the queue and i was infront of the checkout- thing.
"Hi there, sorry for the wait, can i help you?" A man with bright blue eyes and blondish hair asked me, in a seductive voice.
"Urmm, I'll have a bowl of tomato pasta and a bottle of Diet Coke please.." I smiled.
"Yes, is that eat in or take-out?" I looked behind my shoulder and no seats in the cafe were free anyway.
"Take-out, please.."
"Okay then, but ever since your so gorgeous, i'll let you have it for free.." he winked. WHAT?!
"No, don't worry, ill pay, it's only 5 dollars."
"Seriously, you don't have to pay, i'm the manager here anyway, wanna come in my office?" he smirked..
"No, thanks...Umm, i think i should go.." I threw 10 dollars at him, grabbed my food and drink, and then headed out of the cafe..
I wandered around, trying to find a place to sit, and once i got to the middle of the mall i thought i'd sit by the fountain.
I plumped down on side of the fountain, and i was seriously worn out. I've been doing something that i hate for hours and still haven't got what i wanted..
I looked in most shops, and still hadn't found something which was .. Alice.
Whilst munching on my pasta, i pulled my phone out of my bag, i had 5 missed calls. Oops. It was Alice. I searched Alice's name on my contacts and pressed 'send'
"Hello? Bella?" Alice said down the phone..
"Hey Ali, did you call?"
"Yes, i did.. where the FUCK are you?" She may look innocent, but when she's angry, she certainly is not.
"Umm, i'm at the library, why?" I lied.
"Oh right okay, it's just that i got home and i didn't know where you were, i thought you were kidnapped or something. Got a bit worried.."
"Oh, sorry.. I'll be back in an hour or so.. I just need to do a bit of reading.."
"Okay! See you later nerd!.." With that she hung up..
I sipped on my Coke and decided to make this shopping trip as short as it would go. I stood up and started walking to the trash can to throw my pasta pot in the bin, but before i knew it, i was on the floor with a thud and my pasta bowl, my Coke, and my bag was surrounding me, along with a person trying to help me up..
"Oh god.. I'm so sorry.." He breathed. I looked up and saw some beautiful, but worried emerald eyes. This guy had bronze-ish hair and he was quite tall, he wore a pair of blue jeans with a grey tee. It shown up his muscles, they wern't too big, but not too small.. Come to think of it, his body and his face was pretty much perfect, from what i could see from the floor.
"Oh, don't worry.. I trip over everything anyway." I chuckled.
He held his hand out, and i grabbed it to help myself up. When our hands were touching, it was.. strange. I felt something like electic currents running from my hand all the way up to my shoulder. It sent a chill down my spine. I didn't know if i liked the feeling. Once i was back up on my feet i pulled my hand away and we both seemed to stare at our hands in confusion. He must of felt it too.
"I'm Edward Cullen." He smiled crookedly, my breath hitched and my eyes widened. How did he do that?
"Bella Swan." I blinked.
"Good to meet you"
"You too, Edward!" I smiled and threw my pasta pot in the garbage and started walking.
"What's a girl like you doing here all alone?" He asked.
"What the hell is that supposed to mean?" I asked, a bit irritated.
"Well, someone so beautiful like yourself, aren't you with your boyfriend or something?" He asked, it looked kinda serious..
"Very funny, Edward.. I don't even have a boyfriend..." I laughed. He just stared at me like i was telling a horrible lie.
"Really?"
"Really Really. " I snorted. Then i felt a virbration in my leg. It was my cell phone, telling me i had a text message.
I pressed read it it said:
Bella,
just to let you know, Rosalie's home..
So if you'd like to you get your head out of your book and come home, we'll be at the apartment..
loveee you!
Alice xxo
I looked over at Edward and saw him reading my text..
"Hey! don't read my messages,man!" I laughed.
"What you gunna do, arrest me?" He smirked.
"No, not now, because i need to go home." I frowned. I didn't want to leave Edward on his own, for some reason i do not know.
"Oh, okay.. Well i guess this is goodbye for forever.." I smirked, but i looked into his eyes and traced a different emotion... maybe sadness?
"Yep, guess so.."
"Good-bye, bella." he took my hand and kissed it. My heart sped up and i think i nearly fainted right into him
"Bye Edward, it was nice meeting you..." He released my hand and i walked back to my car, wishing that i didn't leave, and that i could run into his arms and let him kiss my hand all day!
But.. that was obviously not going to happen..
So i came back to the real world and drove home. Without a present for Alice, just to add.
Authors note: PLEASE REVIEW... xx
