Chapter Five – You kissed him

I walked back over to Mike's table and sat down next to him, his mouth still agape. I put my tray down and stated to pick at my chicken salad. I felt the eyes of everyone on the table looking at me, I looked up. "What?" I asked, raising an eyebrow.

A blond girl from my English class piped up first. "So, you and Edward Cullen are dating?"

"Errr... no, we're not. Where'd you get that idea from?" I asked, sweetly, smiling at all on the table.

"But you just kissed him. Twice," a different blond said, in a snooty voice.

"So, doesn't mean we're dating. I'm just closer to him then with Jaz or Em. I've known him longer. Edward's my... best friend." I replied in a 'duh' tone. "Plus, if I kissed Jasper or Emmett I'd have Rose and Alice on me and that ain't so good. Trust me."

"Okay, so you're not dating. So, who are you dating?" Some guy from across from me said, whist giving me some looks.

I raised an eyebrow. "Me? I'm not dating anyone. I'm a free agent."

"So, you fancy -" He was cut off by the snooty blond.

"How'd you know the Cullen's?"

"They're my family. Esme's my mum. Carlisle's my step-dad and them lot are my brothers and sisters." I replied, sticking a piece of chicken in my mouth.

"So, you kiss your brother?" Blondie asked.

"Ew, no. He's not my biological brother. He's my adoptive brother. And, let me ask you something," I said. "Can you tell me, honestly, if you lived with that," I jerked a thumb over my shoulder at him, "that you wouldn't want to kiss him?" I asked, raising an eyebrow.

"Okay, I see you're point. He's seriously hot!" She giggled, and I nodded my head.

"Okay, well, you all seem to know me. I'm Isabella Platt. But call me Bella. But, who the hell are you?" I asked

"Well, I'm Jessica Stanley," the blond from my English class. "This is Lauren Malory," the snooty blond. "That's Eric Yorkie," the one who asked who I was dating. "And they're Angela Webber and Ben Chevey, they're dating," The two who hadn't said anything, "and you know Mike."

"Cool, nice to meet you. But the bell's about to go and I have bio with Edward, so bye," I said, getting up to dump my food in the bin.

"Hey, Bella, I have that class next, you can walk with me if you want," Mike said, catching my hand.

"No, sorry, Mike. I promised Eddie that I'd walk with him," I said, smiling down at him. He let go of my hand and I skipped over to the bin and placed my rubbish in there, then walked over to Edward and sat in his lap. I pushed my face into the crook of his neck and he chuckled and wrapped his arms around me. I groaned. "I hate school. I hate whinny school children. Why did I have to come here?" I whined to myself. He laughed again and so did Alice, Jasper and Emmett. Rosalie – not so much.

"You have to come, because we have to come, Squirt!" Emmett said, sticking his tongue out.

"Emmett, I told you before. Stop with the "Squirt" and "Little Sister" comments," I said glaring. "Now, Eddie, the bell's about to go and we have bio. Come on." I turned to Edward.

"Let's skip, and don't call me Eddie." He sneered at the name.

"Whatever you say, Eddie. But, why are we skipping?" I asked.

"Because they're blood typing and I don't want to be in there," he explained.

"But, we both can't not go. Mum and Dad won't be happy. How about we go, but as soon as I see the blood I get "ill" and you can take me to the nurse. I'll do it so quickly that you won't even smell it," I said, smiling at my genius plan.

"Whatever. We'll do it your way. But next time it's my way." He sighed, shaking his head and I grinned.

"Who said there's going to be a next time?" I asked, smiling innocently.

"Shut up, and just go, squirt." He said, lifting me and swinging me over his shoulder.

A/N: Okay, I'm sorry about this being so short – but right now my life is hectic and if you want chapter they might be short for a while. Baby was nearly born three days ago. My brother called up saying Alex's is in labour – what do I do? What do I do? So then, we all get in the car and when we get to the hospital and the doctor saying it's a faux alarm. I glared at my brother – because I'm not heartless enough to do that to Alex. But, because it's so close to the due date she's got to stay in – just in case. So, we've been in and out of the hospital – and did I tell you I have a phobia of hospitals which my brother teases me because of? No, well, I do. So all this being in hospital is putting me under stress and I totally forgot about you guys and the story so as soon as I got home I wrote this and put it up and I know you're going to hate me – but I'll be helping my brother and Alex a lot with the new born when he/she comes – so chapter's will be short.

Sorry, guys. Reviews would be nice and though, and nobody has voted on my poll I can't do much if you don't decide – because if you don't, I will and I'm really bad at making decisions, and I will make the wrong one, so...

CHECK OUT MY POLL!
