Not Always as They Appear

Chapter 8: Things That Should Not Be Said

BPOV

When Edward and I broke the kiss, I had to keep from laughing. Everyone looked gob smacked. It was totally silent throughout the whole the room. I looked to Edward and saw that he was having trouble holding back laughter. I have to admit it was pretty funny. When he turned to me, I burst out laughing also.

I was shocked. Bella, my Bella, just kissed 'Ass-hole', aka Cullen. I can`t believe that after all we have done to get them together, they do it on their own. I just really want to know what happened to cause this turn around.

Just when I thought things couldn't get any weirder, the two of them burst out laughing. Not only were they laughing together, Bella was leaning on Edward. I think I'm dreaming.

"Are you seeing what I'm seeing?" Emmett asked me.

"I'm not so sure. Rose?" I asked. When I didn't get an answer I forced myself to look at Rose. She looked frozen in shock. I turned to see Jasper in the same state. I looked back to Bella and Edward, they were still laughing hysterically in the center of the cafeteria.

We are definitely a strange group of friends.

After lunch Bella and I headed to Bio. We took our seats and waited for Mr. Banner to come. I looked over to Bella; she was looking over at the supply closet door.

"Bells, are you okay? I thought you never wanted to see the closet again?" I asked.

"Yeah I'm fine. Don't you think it`s funny that it took being locked in a closet for us to realize that we were acting stupid?"

"Well at least we aren't fighting now."

"True. Hey Edward?"

"Yes love?"

"There is something I've been wondering about. Did you really hand me the purple vile on purpose?"

I started laughing, "Bella do you really think I would do that to you? Especially since I didn't know what the mixture would cause? "

"I don't know that was when you 'hated' me."

"No, that was when I pretended to hate you when I really loved you. And no I seriously thought they were both blue," I confessed.

"Edward, are you seriously color blind?"

"No."

"I wouldn't be so sure."

"Whatever Bella."

The rest of Bio. class went by in the same fashion. Finally the bell rang. Bella and I packed up our stuff and headed out of the classroom and towards the locker rooms.

"You know what will be good about this class?" I asked her.

"What?"

"I don't have to pretend I hate you, everyone knows I'm you boyfriend, and I can officially yell at anyone, Mike, that looks at you in a way I don't like."

"I bet the last one really makes you happy," she teased.

"Yeah, I've been going crazy the last few years. What with Mike and half the guys in school drooling after you. And the worst thing about it was that I couldn't do anything about it," I confessed.

"Aw poor Eddie," she teased using my old nickname. She was the only one I ever let use it.

"You do know you are the only one allowed to call me that?"

"Yep, and I am so going to use that to my advantage." With that she turned on her heel with surprising grace, and disappeared into the locker room. I laughed and walked into the boy`s room. I saw Emmett and Jasper changing and walked over.

"Hey guys."

"Hey Edward. What's up?" asked Jasper.

"Nothing much, you guys?"

"Well we are in the locker room, changing, and talking. Oh and the whole school is talking about your and Bella`s kiss in the lunch room."

"Oh yeah, that."

"Yeah that. What happened? Last I checked you two couldn't stand each other." By this time the three of us were out in the gym headed towards the girls.

"Well Jasper you of all people should know that I never hated Bella."

"Oh yeah I seen to have forgotten the last like six times I was over at your house when you and Bella had a really bad argument, Mike so much as looked at Bella wrong, or you just had a really bad day," Jasper teased.

"Shut up," I growled just as we walked up to Bella and the girls. I walked over to Bella and pulled her into my arms.

"What are we shutting up about?" asked Bella.

"Nothing," I answered quickly. Apparently I replied too quickly because these mischievous smiles spread across Jasper and Emmett`s faces. "Don't you dare."

"Well we were talking about Edward and Jasper was just saying something about the last few times he was over at Edward`s house."

"Emmett, Jasper, either of you say one more word and I'll kill you both," I threatened causing them to laugh.

"Well as I was saying, Jasper never really got to finish because we were told to 'shut up.' Jasper why don't you tell us now?"

"Well as I was saying before my life was so rudely threatened, the last several times I have been to Edward`s house, he was always whining and complaining about how Bella hated him and how he loved her but could never tell her. It got very repetitive," Jasper laughed.

"You`re dead," I yelled as I lunged for him. He moved out of the way just in time. For the rest of class I chased Jasper and Emmett around the gym as the girls laughed. When gym finally ended we headed into the locker rooms and changed. The six of us walked towards the parking lot and stood by my car.

"You know I still don't know what happened last night? I mean yesterday the two of you hate each other and have detention with Mr. Banner and this morning you have me drop of clothes for you and you two are kissing, cuddling, and dating. What the hell happened to make the two of you realize how stupid you were being?" asked Alice.

"Yeah I want to know as well," chimed Rose.

"Alright, how about this, we all go over to our house and Edward and Jasper can stay the night with me and Rose and Bella with Alice?" Emmett asked.

Everyone nodded in agreement and headed to their car to get their things from home. As everyone parted I called Bella back over to me.

"Yeah?"

"Can I pick you up and drive you to Alice and Emmett`s?"

"I'd love it."

"Great," I said as I turned with a smile on my face and headed home.

We were all over at the Brandon`s house sitting in Alice`s room.

"Okay so what happened?" asked Rose.

"Well…" Edward and I then told them the story of our night locked in the closet. By the end Alice and Rose had 'awww'ed many times.

"That is so sweet."

"Okay so now that that is out, I just have one question. What were the four of you planning?" I asked and laughed at their shocked faces.

"How did you know we were planning something?" asked Jasper.

"You have Alice and on your side."

"Right I forgot about that," he laughed.

They then told Edward and me about their plan to get the two of us together.

"Okay, now why did Emmett want to name you guys the Super Cool Ducky Squad?" asked Edward. For some reason this caused to four to laugh.
