A Love Game...

Chapter Three

B.p.o.v

I could have slept another month if it hadn't heard Alice giggling outside my bedroom door. My head was pounding and I had to blink a couple of times to bare the light seeping through my bedroom window, I didn't know what time it was and I didn't care. I didn't realize that I was sleeping naked until I actually got out of bed. What did I do? Shit, think, Bella think. I threw on a pair of sweats and a t-shirt thinking that no one would take any notice. Last night was blurry- in fact I'm pretty sure that I couldn't even remember my name. I began making my way down stairs and into the kitchen, I stopped when I heard Edward muttering to himself. I couldn't make out exactly what he was saying.

"Talking to yourself is the first sign of insanity, you know." I laughed as I walked to the fridge.

"Bella!" he said surprised. The sound of his voice made me nervous.

"What did I do?" I asked smiling. He didn't answer and I had a feeling that I really did do something. Oh god what if I had admitted how fucking obsessed I was with him.

"What do you remember of last night?" he enquired looking up to meet my eyes. There was a hint of disappointment in his eyes.

"I remember you rescuing me from Mike," I paused trying to think, Edward cleared his throat. "Oh and thanks by the way but after that… well its all sort of a blur." I laughed and Edward smiled a genuine smile and it was reflected in his eyes.

"You don't remember Jacob?"

"Jacob?" I asked fearing the information that he was going to give me. Shit, that must be who I ended up with last night.

"You're serious?" he laughed. "Wow. I'm in shock did Bella Swan actually have fun last night?"

"I guess I did." I smiled and sat across the way from him. Things were simpler today, I wanted him but it seemed easier to repress it. "So what did you get up to last night?" I asked staring into his eyes. Everything seemed to disappear around me and neither of spoke for a few minutes but then Edward looked away and reality crashed around me.

"Bella, I need to tell you something…last night," he began but was cut off by the sound of my phone ringing.

"Hold on a minute." I said and I answered the call. "Hello?"

"Bella, hi. Its Jake…" the husky voice on the other side of the phone said. Jake- shit Jake. "You know Edward's friend?"

"Oh hi Jake." I answered. Edward looked like he was about to go into shock.

"So I was wondering if maybe you want to go out tonight? Like to the movies or something."

"Am go out- tonight?" I turned to look at Edward but all I saw was him get up and leave. "Yeah I guess so." I said unsure.

"Okay see you tonight around eight. Bye."

"Bye Jake" What had I just done? Edward clearly wasn't okay with me going out with Jacob. That's probably what he wanted to tell me.

I called Edward's name through the downstairs of the house but he wasn't downstairs. I could hear his music from down the hall, I went straight to his room and entered without knocking. His room was messier than usual and I wasn't surprised to find him sitting on his bed with a sulky expression.

"Edward, what is wrong with you?" I asked. "I was looking for an excuse from you." He just shrugged in response. Fine if he is playing stubborn then so am I. As much as I care about Edward and as much as I wanted him he still really pissed me off. "You don't want me to go out with Jake is that what the problem is?" His expression changed for half a second- I think we've got a winner!

"Bella, I haven't got time for your petty love life. Can't you go annoy Alice for a while?" he asked through gritted teeth. I wasn't expecting that. I felt hurt and betrayed. He had never spoken to me so distantly before. I turned to walk away and he spoke again. "Because everyone knows that at the end of all this, when Jake has got what he wanted from you, I'm the one that has to pick up the pieces, but Bella believe me there is not a hope that I'm going to be there for you this time." He paused. " Not when you're the one that got you into this mess." I turned to face him.

"What about all the times when I have had to clean up the mess you made of your relationships? I mean it could be worse; I could go with guy after guy like you do with girls- right. You've probably gone through the entire female population of Forks and couldn't find anyone that would fuck you last night- is that why your being such a rehab today?" I asked sarcastically.

"Isn't that what you do best Bella, give guys what they want when they want it no matter how much self-respect you lose in between. And do you really think Jake is going to be any different?"

Without even noticing my reaction I felt my hand collide with his cheek- I hit him, Edward, my best friend, I hit him. I took two deep breaths trying to hold back the tears that were threatening to overflow. "Bella…I'm…" Edward looked as though he was in shock.

"You know what Edward, I haven't got time for this, and I have a date to get ready for." And I stormed off banging the door behind me. Once in the privacy of my own room, I let the tears flow, recalling the conversation I just had with Edward.

E.p.o.v

What the fuck possessed me to say all that to her? Bella, I just told Bella that I didn't care about her- I'm seriously fucked up- the truth was that I cared too much. I had no right to even be jealous that she had said 'yes' to Jake- what I should have done is beat the shit out of Jake not hurt my Bella. 'My Bella' No! She wasn't my Bella; especially after today's incident- she must hate me. I should have just told her straight away about last night. I walked to Bella's bedroom door and paused as heard her quiet sobs. This was so frustrating, how was I supposed to tell her how I feel about her? No! I didn't feel anything I wasn't supposed to feel, last night was a mistake. It was great but I can't say it was worth our friendship. I was about to knock on her door but she opened it. She looked at me and then walked around me leaving the door slam behind her.

Bella looked amazing, she wasn't supposed to look like that for Jacob not for anyone. She was wearing a dark blue blouse that contrasted perfectly against her pale skin paired with blue skinny fit jeans and flat shoes. Her make-up was subtle and her hair lay across her shoulders. When did I start paying so much attention to Bella? Even her scent had my heart beating a few beats faster than usual. I stared after her in shock. Jake must be coming to collect her early. I followed her downstairs and sat down on the opposite side of the sofa, as far from her as possible. She sat motionless staring at the television in front of her. I couldn't take the silence any longer.

"Bella, I'm so sorry. You have to know that I never meant anything I said." I told. When she didn't reply I tried again. "You know that I'll always be there for you, don't you?" she looked at me and shook her head.

"No Edward, I don't think you will." And see turned back to the T.V screen. It stayed silent until there was a knock at the door, which turned out to be Jake and Bella left without saying 'goodbye'. I stayed in the same position after she left and wallowed in self-pity.

B.p.o.v

I felt awkward leaving with Jake and not saying bye to Edward but I hadn't forgiven him just yet. And how was he supposed to know whether or not Jake was like the others. Well obviously he was like the others if we ended up in bed with each other last night, but he called today which is different. I didn't pay much attention to him as we drove to Port Angeles. Everything was messed up, I'm cursed when it comes to parties- if I didn't go to the party last night everything would have been fine. Jacob was easy to drive with, he took control of the whole conversation and all I had to do is nod every once and a while. I didn't even notice when we arrived outside the cinema until he opened the door for me, which only made me think about Edward because he always treated me with respect.

"So you and Edward have been friends for a long time." He stated, I was about to answer but he didn't give me a chance. "I actually thought that he was your boyfriend and when I asked him if that was true he didn't answer, so I was really just taking a chance last night." Why didn't he tell Jake the truth?

"No, he's just Edward." I laughed as we sat down to watch the movie. Jacob smiled a brilliant white smile and neither of us talked after that. I didn't pay attention to the movie, all I kept thinking about was Edward and whether he was okay. And then there was something else bothering me, Jacob had said that Edward hadn't denied that we were dating. What I did notice is Jake putting his arm around my shoulder, it was so cliché. This isn't what I wanted, the only reason I went on this date is because I was mad at Edward and I couldn't come up with a valid excuse fast enough. When the movie had finished I stood up quickly and faked a yawn.

"I guess you're tired." He laughed and I had to restrain myself from rolling my eyes. "Last night must have taken a lot out of you," and he raised an eyebrow. I laughed and nodded. "Lets get you home then." On the way home I actually talked to Jake and really got to know him, it turns out we have a lot in common and I liked him but I only liked him as a friend but he kind of felt like a brother than a friend. When we got to the house there was a slight bit of awkwardness because I know what was coming next and I didn't want that but like the idiot that I was when he leaned in to kiss me I kissed back. "I'll call you later. Bye." He said as I walked in the door.

"Bye." I smiled. I let out a loud frustrated sigh and fell into the white leather couch in the living room. My life was so fucked up and now I was starving because I had avoided going to dinner with Jake. I went to the kitchen to make myself something to eat and when I opened the fridge I found a plate of lasagne with a note saying:

"In case you're hungry

P.S- Sorry about earlier"

I put it in the microwave and got a glass of water. Edward must have forgiven me. I ate quickly and washed up even quicker. After that I ran up the stairs to Edward's room and knocked on the door. I opened it slowly and slipped into the room closing the door quietly behind me.

"Edward?" I whispered. "Edward, are you awake?" I heard a low chuckle from his bed. "Why are you sitting in the dark?" I asked as I switched on the light.

"Because I was trying to sleep!" he told me sarcastically. I stood there awkwardly for a few seconds. "You know you can sit down?" he pointed out. I sat on the bed and gave a weak smile.

"Can you do me a favour?" I asked. He nodded and I hid the smile that was fighting to spread across my face. "Will you make me something to eat? I'm starving and there's nothing to eat in the fridge." His face fell.

"I made you lasagne and put it in the fridge… I'm going to kill Emmett for eating it!" I just laughed at his expression.

"Edward I'm joking, relax! I ate it and thanks."

"Good." He smiled. "How was your date?" If I tell the truth he is obviously going he is going to get some sort of pleasure knowing that he was right and that I only went on the date because I was mad at him. So I decided to lie.

"It was amazing. Jake is such a nice guy." Edward's jaw locked. "And he is an amazing kisser." I smiled.

"Bella, please, I don't need to hear this."

"Does it make you mad when I say how good of a kisser he is?" I asked mockingly. He didn't answer. "Or how his touch sends little electric pulses through my body or how looking in his eyes makes me weak at the knees and how his voice, his music like, seductive voice, sends a shiver through me." Edward was beginning to get angry, I could see it in his eyes but the truth was that I was talking about him. "And his body is just…wow…I'm lost for words when it comes to him." My voice has turned from mocking to serious.

"Bella please stop, I can't listen to this."

"But Edward you don't understand how this one person can make me feel this way, it's unbelievable." Edward was fighting a losing battle with his composed position. He fidgeted and shifted uncomfortably.

"Bella please." He pleaded, really pleaded.

"Why Edward? Why? I can't help that every time I even think about him my heart races and every time I see my heart skips a beat and every time…" I was cut off when Edward got up and began pacing. He was working off his anger like always. "…Every time I'm with him it's so easy to be myself." I got up and Edward stopped pacing. I was standing face-to-face with him and I leaned in to whisper in his ear. "And Edward guess what? I bet he could take care off all my needs." And I giggled. Edward stiffened and breathed deeply and slowly. This was too much fun to quit on so, even though I didn't want to, I decided to bring up last night. I couldn't remember it, just bits and pieces, but he didn't know that. I went back to the bed where I sat on the edge. "When we were together last night, he was just amazing. I thought he was an amazing kisser but it gets so much better. He was the best I've ever had." Edward turned slowly to look at me. "Anyway Edward, I'll see you tomorrow. Night!" I was just about to leave the room when Edward backed me against the closed bedroom door. I was in shock for moment.

"Edward, what the…" I trailed off when I looked in his eyes. I didn't even have a chance to think before I felt his lips meet mine, his hands placed lightly on my waist. I put my hands around his neck and kissed him passionately. This was way better than Jacob's innocent little kiss. This had to be a dream, some fucked up result of alcohol poisoning or something along those lines.

I shuddered when Edward deepened the kiss- if this is a dream then I was getting as much as I could from it. I knotted one of my hands in his hair and used the other to pull him closer. I grazed me tongue along his bottom lip, begging for entrance and he opened his mouth, his tongue fighting mine for domination. I had to remind myself to breathe or I was sure to faint. I broke the kiss to breathe but Edward's lips didn't leave my skin they moved to my neck and he placed gentle kisses there. He then nibbled on my ear a little before kissing the exposed skin on my neck to my collarbone. My breaths became shaky and I was sure that I was going to wake up any minute. Just a dream, Bella, Just a dream! His lips met mine again and he kissed me gently.

His lips moved to my ear and I could hear his slow, heavy breaths. "Goodnight Bella." And for the final time his lips gently found mine. I left his room both confused and a slight bit dizzy.

E.p.o.v

I couldn't stand it listening to Bella talk about how much she liked Jacob and what she said about last night, thinking that she was with Jacob, drew me over the edge. I couldn't stop myself but I really didn't want to stop myself. Bella deserved the truth and that's what I was giving her, the truth and then she could make her choice because it is always her choice and whatever her choice may be I was going to have to live with it. And if I didn't leave her go when she had then I would have gone too far.
