okies so this is chapter 4, sorry if when i said i had great idea- i didn't mean about the sleepover thing- just about Bella rejecting Edward. SOrry if it came through like that x Anyway so this is the next chapter- review if possible.x 3
Bella;
I had my answer for Jacob. The night before would not happen again. Yes, true i felt the electricity pumping through me, but i knew he didn't feel the same. I needed to hide my embarrasment, i needed to use Jacob. Hell, i felt guilty for that, but i needed to make Edward think i really did feel nothing. He was playing with me, but i couldn't help wondering if he wasn't. If he was, would he really go so far as to snog me and tell me he needed me, tell me i did things to him. That gave me hope, but that was so small i could barely feel it.
I woke up for the first time in so long without the feeling of dread. Edward could and would not hurt me again now that i was best friends with his sister. I should thank her for that.
Today, i decided to wear some clothes that would show my mood; this may be the first time i've ever put any thought into what i was wearing. And, as if on cue, as soon as i opened my wardrobe there was a knock at the door. 'That'll be charlie." i thought as i prodded downstairs, when i opened the door i was surprised to see Alice standing there.
"Alice?" I asked "What in the hell are you doing here!?"
"Well, duh! I've come to make you over. Yeah, sure you looked nice yesterday but remember i had to kick you out early like 4'o clock early?"
"Yeah.."
"You had packed no extra clothes!! So you would've been wearing the same clothes as you had yesterday. Thats just..just..wrong Bella!!"
"I didn't even realise, you didn't tell me."
"Your a GIRL Bella. That instinct should come naturally to you."
"If you havent noticed, i'm not that kind of girl."
"Yes,yes,yes. Can i come in now?!"
"Oh, yeah sure." i stepped aside as she strolled graciously into my house.
"Now, i have a feeling you'll need to look your best today. I just have a great feeling about that!!"
"Great." I said sarcastically, though she obviously didn't catch it.
"I know!! Now, up we go. I'll pick up the clothes and i brought a few things that you'll need."
I led her upstairs slowly, so she barged past me into my room.
"Now, Bella," she said whilst rubbing her hands together. "So much to do, so little time, i think i'll give you your clothes first."
She laid a pair of navy skinny jeans, and a blue tank top on the bed, then she dug around in her bag for a purple cardigen, and then, after digging around some more, she found a silver long necklace that went down to my middle stomach, she then pulled out a pair of blue pumps, with a bow at the front.
"Why, hello Mary Poppins." I joked
"I do what i can." She laughed back.
When i had it all on, i was surprised at how good i looked in it. It really brought out my curves, she then started on my hair- after pulling some curling tongs out of the bag and i looked in the mirror again. Alice was a miracle worker!! Once she had added the make up, i looked like a complete different girl.
"Alice!! I dont, i dont know how to thank you!!" I pulled her into a hug
"Aw, Bella. You look great usually, its just i have a feeling-"
"That todays gonna be a great day for me, i know, you said" I laughed, which made her laugh.
I looked at my watch-
"Come on Alice, lets get to school." I said with a beam on my face
"It's great to see you looking better!" i smiled at her and ran out the house into my car.
When we arrived at school i got out of my car happily- falling over in the process. Only to be caught by 2 people, Edward and Jake. I got up awkwardly, thanked the 2 of them and then asked if i could speak to Jake privately, he nodded his head and scowled at Edward.
"Jacob. I wanted to talk to you about us," i started- nervously. I hated the fact that i was about to use my best friend.
"Bella, i meant everything i said on Monday- i just love you. I want you. Will you be mine?"
I nodded- if i said anything it might give me a way. He grinned at me and went down to give me a snog. It wasn't as great as the one i'd had with Edward, in fact it was pretty rubbish compared. But i was with a guy who i could trust, a guy who had never done anything to me, had never made me cry. I could be happy. Happy with Jacob.
Edward;
I woke up the next morning, determined to show Bella how much i loved her that day. She would never know what she meant to me until i showed her. I would put my popularity on the line for her. So when i got downstairs and i saw Alices car gone, i figured she must have gone to school early. So i got into my Silver Volvo and drove to school. About 5 minutes later i saw Bella's car pull up, and she got out. I like most of the males in the school turned and stared- in astonishment, she looked like a completely different person. But- being the clutz she was, she fell down; i automatically went to pick her up. At the same time as Jacob Black. Who gave me a scowl. She got up and looked at me with such confusion. I smiled at her, but i think she missed it. She whispered thanks and asked Jacob if she could speak to him.
This was it, all hope that i may have had before was gone. She would say that she wanted him too, just to get back at me. She would use him, but i knew how she felt. She couldnt just push those feelings to the side simply because i had kissed her. She was my true love and i would not give up. I decided to go to class, when i saw herself and Jacob Kissing- with force. I felt like i'd just been stabbed, i couldnt breath. 'Isabella how could you do this to me?" was all that i thought as i turned with a wounded expression painted on my face to my next class. Bioligy.
The last time i had had bioligy was when i had almost made her cry. I had not gotten over that, and i would tell her in class.
I sat down in my seat and waited for her to come, and sure enough, 5 minutes later she did. As she came and sat down, i smiled at her.
Smiling back she said "Hello, Edward."
"Bella, i just want to say sorry for-"
"For what? For kissing me yesterday? Dont worry its forgotten. Or was it for making fun of me all these years? If so, then thats forgotten. Or maybe perhaps all the times that you have humilated me? Or hurt me beyond repair? If so then you are not forgiven."
"Bella. I wasn't lying last night. I am deeply in love with you, and I was going to say sorry for everything. But i will not say sorry for that kiss. That was perhaps the best kiss i've ever been given, Bella, i understand that maybe, i dont deserve you. But i will not give up. I'm being serious when i say this, i wouldn't lie to you. I'd lie to anyone but you."
"I'm taken." She whispered
"Bella, please dont tell me that all the love you've felt for me in the past 2 years has not just vanished, because i know that thats impossible, i started feeling for you 2 years ago aswell, Bella. I know you dont love Jacob the way he loves you. I love you that way. Aand i'm hoping you felt the electricity i felt last night. I'm not joking when i say this, Bella, last night was the best night of my life- simply because you kissed me back." I told as much of the truth as i could. I didn't want to scare her away by saying the three words that i wanted to say most to her.
she looked shocked for a second.
"I-I-I- l-l-o-o-" She started but Jacob interruppted as the bell went
"Bella, shall we go to trig. together?" she looked up at him and nodded, almost reluctantly.
the rest of the day followed slowly. I couldn't keep my mind away from Bella, i couldn't keep my eyes away from her either. And Jacob, Jacob didn't deserve her beauty. He was sucha dick sometimes.
at the end of it though, i decided to face up to Bella.
"Bella?" I tapped her shoulder
she turned around and looked at me, confused, for the second time in a day. "Edward?"
"Ride back with me?"
She nodded, which was the last thing i expected her to do. "Edward, what about my car?"
"I'll get it later."
"Edward?"
"Yes?"
"Why are you doing this?"
"Bella. Are you that blind!? Bella, love. I cant stop thinking about you. It's driving me crazy!"
"Same." She whispered "But i won't dump Jake. He deserves better." I grinned at her
"Bella, YOU Deserve better." She blushed her gorgeous blush and shook her head
"Did you mean everything you said in Bioligy?"
"Every single word."
"I dont regret it either, you know, the kiss. Im sorry for rejecting you, but i thought.."
We were outside her house now "Bella," I whispered "I would've done the same."
And i kissed her.
