"Really, who did you hear that from?" I asked shocked
"Edward of course."
"What did he say?" I asked wondering if my act was soon to be revealed.
"Just some stuff about how he was running and seen you, nothing big."
"Oh." That's all I could manage to say.
"So what do you think of my brother?" Alice asked
"He's ok I guess, I really haven't gotten to know him." Nor did I particularly want to.
"Well you will have plenty of time to get to know him, considering your both in IB Bio. The two of you
will practically be living together." O joy spending all my time with Edward, what fun it will be.
"By the way you look quite sexy today, may I ask the occasion." Alice asked with an evil glint in her
eye.
"No reason really, I just felt like wearing this shirt."
"Well I really like it, and by the looks your getting so does the male half of the student population. "
Alice said while laughing.
"You should sit with us at lunch today!!"
"I can't today Alice I have to be at the hospital at 12:30 and I still have to go home and change. Maybe
some other time."
"Defiantly, were still going shopping tonight right?" Alice asked me. Until now I had completely
forgotten about shopping and honestly I wasn't in the mood to go tonight. I looked over to Alice to tell
her I had other plans and noticed her giving me the 'puppy dog' eyes. Usually I wouldn't fall for
that trick, but on Alice, you just couldn't say no.
"Sure, why not. I am done at the hospital at 5 so I'll meet you at the mall at around 5:30."
"Sounds great!" Alice replied enthusiastically, and with that the bell rang.
The rest of the morning flew by and before I knew it I was walking out to my car at lunch. I heard the
voices of two people fighting, a boy and a girl to be more specific, probably a lovers' quarrel. I looked
over and seen Rose yelling at Edward.
"Hell NO! I am not walking home, you're just going to have to find some other way to the hospital.
"Rose, you knew this morning when you got in the car that I would be leaving at lunch, it's your own
fault you should have brought your car." Edward replied back.
"No, I am not walking home, if you don't leave me those keys Edward Cullen I'll tell Mom what you did
to her leather sofa." I was slightly frightened by the amount of anger in Roses voice.
"You wouldn't." Edward had his fists balled up into tight fists and hissed the words through clenched
teeth.
"Wanna bet." As Rose uttered her threat she flipped open her cell phone and began to dial.
"FINE! Take the fucking keys Rose, I'll walk to the hospital."
"No you won't Edward." Alice replied, wait Alice where did she come from?
"Well than how shall I get there Alice?" Edward asked, irritation still present in his tone
"You can go with Bella, she's meeting Rose and I at the mall later, so you can get your car then." Alice
looked over to me and winked, why the hell was she winking at me? Edward also looked over to me,
I met his gaze, managed a weak smile and turned away.
"That sounds alright to me if it's ok with Bella."
"Of course it's ok with Bella, right?" Alice asked
"Sure, it's no problem at all. I need to go home and change first if that's alright."
"That's fine with me, let's get going "Edward smiled a beautiful crooked smile, his smile and waved good
bye to Rose and Alice. Well he waved to Alice, when it came to Rose her wave was missing a couple of
fingers.
"You have a very nice car, actually you have two very nice cars, I am quite jealous."
"Thanks." I muttered in a nervous tone.
The drive to my house was quick and quite. I invited Edward in the house and ran up the stairs to
change. A few minutes later I was ready to go .I walked down the stairs slowly I really didn't want to trip
in front of Edward .
"Ready?" I asked
"Always." He replied,
The ride to the hospital was short and yet again quite, the need for conversation was just not there.
When we arrived we were given a tour and received a lecture on emergency room
management. I really enjoyed the day, I was, however, not looking forward to shopping. We walked
out of the hospital and a brilliant idea crossed my mind.
"Hey Edward, want to drive?" I dangled the keys in front of him.
"Really?" His eyes lit up like a kids on Christmas
"Really." I said as I tossed him the keys and slid into the passenger's seat. Edward climbed in, still
grinning like a fool. He started the engine of my Aston martin and turned the radio on. That song was
at the same place It was when I shut the engine off yesterday, I suddenly remember why I took my
other car. I leaned back and tried not to listen, the music was just so hypnotic, so soothing, yet
dangerous. I made a mistake, I reached over and turned the song up.
I let it wash over me,
I felt the tears coming but I didn't try to stop them I let them fall, I let them rule my life.
The song finally came to an end only to start to play again and again and again.
Edward noticed my state and pulled the car over to the side of the road we were in the middle of
nowhere and it was starting to get dark out.
The song started again and I gave in, I gave in.
I remember the steps perfectly, each one complex yet simple.
I climbed out of the car and was glad I decided to change back into my clothes from school at the
hospital. I kicked my heals off and moved to the music,
each step perfect,
each soothingly painful.
I felt my heart shatter at the memory, the words to the song forever imprinted in my heart.
The memories, all painful, all heartbreaking
All I have left.
I noticed Edward staring at me, his eyes were as black as night.
I didn't care, hate, mental illness, I moved over to him gracefully. Pulled him close to my body and
dipped myself down. His reaction surprising was stiff, his fists were clenched, he wasn't moving I don't
even think he was breathing but as the song started over for who knows the time he moved against me
slowly, as if he was testing himself, then he settled on my rhythm pulling me even closer. We moved
perfectly in sync, this was definitely not the same old ballet Nicole and I use to dance, this was more.
This was two people moving together as one, trying to take up as little space as possible by pressing
their bodies tightly together. We moved like this for what felt like hours, but yet it didn't feel long
enough, I let every emotion in my body flood out, every secret, every desire, I let free. I pulled away
only to be pulled right back, pushed up against his skin, he was freezing but it felt as if we were on fire.
I started singing as the song started again.
I'm so tired, of playing
Playing with this bow and arrow
Gonna give my heart away
Leave it to the other girls to play
For I've been a temptress too long
Just. .
Edward pulled me even closer , which felt as if it wasn't possible , he looked in my eyes and I in his , I continued on with the song .
Give me a reason to love you
Give me a reason to be ee, a woman
I just wanna be a woman
From this time, unchained
We're all looking at a different picture
Thru this new frame of mind
A thousand flowers could bloom
Move over, and give us some room
Give me a reason to love you
Give me a reason to be ee, a woman
I just wanna be a woman.
"Bella, don't move ok?" Edward asked.
I could only manage to nod my head .
Slowly Edward moved down and gently pressed his lips to mine, I wanted nothing more
than to grab a hold of him and never let go, but for some reason I knew that I had to
behave. Slowly the sweet kiss turned into something more, something sensual. Our lips
moved in tune with the music, my self control was almost gone and Edwards was
wavering, the song continued on.
So don't you stop, being a man
Just take a little look from our side when you can
Show a little tenderness
No matter if you cry
Give me a reason to love you
Give me a reason to be ee, a woman
It's all I wanna be is all woman
For this is the beginning of forever and ever.
The song ended and so did our self control, before I realized what happened my legs were
wrapped around Edward and I was pressed against the hood of my car. I vaguely
remember someone clearing there throat, at the moment it didn't seem very important. It
wasn't until something was flung into Edwards head, that I realized we were not alone.
Edward only shifted slightly, looked over his left shoulder, and then with an agonized groan
sat up and buried his face in my hair
"We have company." Was all Edward said to me. He lifted me down from the hood and
turned so I could meet whoever interrupted us. I couldn't help but burst into a fit of giggles
as I looked into the faces of his brothers and sisters, they all were trying to hold murderous
glares on their faces, but none succeed especially once I started to laugh. Emmett and
Jasper were right behind me, followed by Rose and finally Alice in erupting into the own fits
"What's so funny?" Edward whispered into my ear.
I tried my best to get out a complete sentence
"Their faces...there priceless." Was all I could muster.
"Own faces are nothing compared to how the two of you look." Emmett replied smugly
"Yeah Bella you look like you exhausted and your clothes and a tad bit twisted." Jasper said
before erupting into another fit of laughter.
Edward looked down at me and, for the first time started to laugh.
"Bella you look." but I cut him off before he could finish.
"I look what Edward, why don't you finish that sentence."
"Hilarious." he choked out
I put on my most hate filled face
"Well Edward I can't look as bad as you do."
He looked up at me and stopped laughing instantly, in fact everyone except for Emmett
stopped.
"Bella, I'm sorry and I didn't mean it like that." Edward quickly choked out.
"Awwww poor Eddie upset his gurl friend, so now he's not gonna get any tonight. "
Emmett said in a girly voice.
"Emmett if you know what's good for you shut up now." Edward hissed .
"If you would excuse me, I have to get home now." I said as I stepped around Edward to open the driver's door.
"Bella, where are you going?" Edward asked confusion and hurt crossing his face.
"Home." was all I could say
