I nodded at Leah "sorry about that - sorry your boyfriends in trouble" I said rubbing my butt, he'd actully smacked it quite hard. Leah was still trembling, her eyes wide and looking at me in shock horror. I playfully tapped her on the shoulder. "I'm sorry but I did tell Sa.."

"Don't worry - he understood me, he understands me more than Jacob did, I hate Jacob Black!" she reasurred, spitting out his name.

I raised my eyebrows "Welcome to the club - its not your fault, Leah. I'm sorry." I frowned. She grinned - we were friends once again.

Insult To Affair

Chapter 4: Date With Edward

I struggled to think of it as finished. Done. Completed. Had it all been over? Had it all been a dream? Leah was talking to me normally so it musn't be a dream. I was so pissed off at Jacob, that I forgot my plans with Edward. He'd asked me out and I clean forgot until he turned up on my doorstep. I gasped from the window as he slowed his Volvo to a stand still. I ran into my room and changed into a deep blue dress that flowed down, to just under my knees. Alice had suggested that I wore that. I myself had decided to wear blue pumps, I didn't want heels at all. I yanked my comb through my mesy brown hair and stopped. Was I in Alice or Bella mode? I sighed and appiled a little bit of clear lipgloss and ran downstairs.

Edward knocked on my door then. I combed my hair, pulled on my black cardigan and took a deep breath. I opened the door and saw him - the handsome man he was. He was wearing a leather jacket and grinned warmly when I opened the door.

"Hello beautiful" he said. I blushed. "Hii" I said shyly. He was just so dreamy, he seemed a lot nicer than Jacob and wasn't all over the hot and sexy but beautiful and pretty way of looking at girls. Which truth be told, I perferred it that way. He motioned for me to follow him.I grabbed my jacket and followed him out to his car. I got in and it smelt of his gorgeous scent, the honey and freesia knocking me into a snese of peaceful-ness. I smiled warmly at him as he started the engine. Then he turned to me, a slight worried look on his face.

"Where are we going?" I asked as soon as he opened his mouth and closed it again. His frown had gone now and I liked that. "I hope you like Italian food" he muttered as we pulled out of my street. I gasped. He turned sharply to me, worried again. "Whats the matter?" he asked. Boy he must worry about me alot.

"How did you know?" I whispered. I'd never told anybody, not even Jacob that my favoraite food was Italian, like my name. Haha. He grinned. "I guessed as your name is Italian." I nodded. He was a quick learner. Why hadn't I seemed to notice him at school? Well maybe because he was Edward Cullen and he was rumored to be a player. I'd heard and sen him with girls but never actully known he'd slept with anybody.

We kept talking until we arrived in Port Angleles. Edward parked the car and walked me over to a place named Bella Italia. This was getting really annoying. Why was everything Italian had a link with my name? Edward looked at me as we walked into the resturant. he seemed not to put pressure on me. This helped but for some reason, I ached to grab hold on him and snuggle deep into his chest. He looked warm and seccure, to help protect me and ease my stress.

I shoke it off and we walked into the resturant. We were greeted by a male host and he gave us a booth table in the corner. The host gave us menus and I searthed to see if they had it. Yes - they did, in fact it was the first on the list. I put my menu down and looked up at Edward. He was watching me. "Keen are we?" he asked, grinning. I smiled back.

Just then the waitress walked over. She had to be wearing the shortest skirt I'd ever seen. Edward's eyes widened slightly but didn't linger there long. I sighed - great, the slut waiter who slept with all the fit guys. Unfortunatly - Edward was fucking hot. Grr.

She also seemed to be wearing a pair of killar heels and a low ridding top. All Edward would have to do, when she leaned down to him, was look down and catch a glispe of fucking PLASTIC boobs. I narrowed my eyes at the back of her head, stupid bitch. Angry Bella may be sexy and hot for Jake but I was known for being violent.

Edward's eyes stayed on me - good boy. I smiled sweetly at him and did the finger at the back of her head, Edward giggled (yes - giggled) and she snapped her head towards me. She glared briefly and I whispered "Sllluut" under my breath. Truth be told, I was winding her up on purpose. She then spoke - and she sounded like some freakin barbie doll. All high and squeeky. I put my hand to my mouth to not laugh.

"May I take your order?" she emphersised on Edward. He raised his eyebrows at her in disbelief and motioned to me. She turned and I tired to keep a staight face. "I'll have the Mushroom Ravoli and a vodka and coke." she smirked. "Your ID please?" she crackled. I nodded "Sure" and pulled out my pass. Her eyes widened and ticked her notpad and turned to Edward. "Same, just a diet coke.W" he said, she wrote it down and drew a love heart round it.

"If you don't mind, I'd appreciate if you didn't flirt with my boyfriend." I lied and she walked away sharpish. I made sure she was inside the kitchen before bursting out laughing. "That...that was fucking priceless!" I gasped. Edward grinned. "I was kidding about the boyfriend thing ok? No need to freak out on me." I assured him.

He looked puzzled "Why would I freak?" I rolled my eyes "Trust me, I have experience when it comes to dating boys. You get scared at the idea of commitment or soppy stuff, unless you just want sex" I repiled, making him shut up. I smiled sweetly and he smiled and very slowly nodded.

The slut came back about 5 minutes later with our food. She had slipped her card under Edward's dish on the plate. He looked at it, blankly. I picked it up, flipped out my lighter and burned it on the spot. "You smoke?" he asked, taking a bite. God he looked sexy when he did that. I shoke my head - concentrate Bella!

Edward and I talked alot during the meal, me sipping my vodka as he maily spoke. He played piano and enjoyed classical music. I found that shocking - admitting that I did as well. I didn't tell him about my hobbies. I wasn't going to tell anyone about my secret singing. I partly lied and skipped round musical things and we talked about childhood memories and things we missed baout being younger, how you could always uaually get away with anything.

He seemed a pretty charming guy. I tired to ignore the fact that he was in fact - the hottest guy I'd set eyes on. I was glad that I'd agreed to go on the date in the first place. When we finnished dinner, the slut didn't come, instead another waitress (wearing normal clothes thank fuck) got our bill - Edward snatching it before I could and we walked out hand-in-hand.

He drove me home, us still talking, finding out we had quite a bit in common. I hadn't dated anyone for ages due to me being with Jacob. I was appreciating how "popular" I was in school. But I was even more glad that I was crushing on Edward.

When we got to my house, he got out and opened my door for me - bless him. He took my hand and even went as far to walk me to my door. He turned to me "Did you have a good night, Bella?" I smiled and nodded. "Yeah - That was funny with that desprate slutty waitress." He grinned wider and chuckled with me. He gave me an awkard hug and brushed a lock of my hair behind my ear.

He turned and was halway to his car when I felt it. The sudden pang of attraction. "Edward" I called. He looked at me and I walked towards him and kissed him on the cheek, dangerously close to his lips. "Thanks for a lovely night." I wjhispered in his ear and walked to my door. I turned and he seemed smitten. I waved as he drove away before going back indoors.

That was the best date I'd had in a loooong time. I went upstairs and that was the first night I dreamed of him.
