Reunions or Ruined?
"Mike?"
There, standing in front of me, was the last person I wanted to see.
Mike Newton stood there smiling.
I caught his eyes roam up and down my body, his eyes slightly darker.
I blushed, forgetting what I was wearing and attempted to try and cover myself better and to hide the disgust that I knew was on my face.
He didn't seem to notice, or else he didn't care.
"Can I come in?" he asked, but before I could answer, he was already walking into the room.
For a second, I stood there staring out the door at the spot he had stood just seconds ago. I pulled myself away from the door, closing it, and turned to him.
He was standing near one of the couches, looking around the room.
"Nice. My room isn't as great as this though. So, how is everything? Seeing anyone lately?"
All I could do was stare at him.
Could I NOT have a relaxing vacation? Why did Mike, of all people, have to show up?
And how did he know this was my room?
I never told anyone where I was staying except for my parents in case of an emergency and Angela.
"Hungry? Feel like catching a bite to eat? I know I'm starved. I know there's this restaurant right in the hotel that has amazing food. It's called The Golden Sun, wanna go?"
He seemed to keep firing questions at me before I could even comprehend what he was saying.
Instead, I blurted out the first thing running through my mind.
"What are you doing here?"
I still didn't get why he was here. We had broken up almost three months ago and I hadn't talked to him since then.
Until now anyways.
I knew that I had hurt him when we broke up, and I didn't think he would have gotten over it yet.
"Well, it just so happens that we are both in the same hotel, on vacation at the same time. I didn't realize this was your room across from mine, this is great! I was just coming over to check out the neighbors."
He spoke with enthusiasm, his blue eyes alight.
Mike wasn't a bad looking guy. Short, spiked blond hair, blue eyes, and a nice body too. He was sweet and caring, and captain of the basketball team where he went to school.
The only reason I went out with him in the first place was because my best friend Angela wanted to go out with her now current boyfriend, Ben. He had said that he had a friend that he thought would be good for me. So, they decided to set Ben's friend up with me.
Little did I know how that would turn out.
I mean, don't get me wrong, Mike is a great guy, just not the type for me.
His only problem was that he was annoying at times, following me wherever I went, always wanting to do things with me.
I'm sure there are some girls out there who would find that adorable, but I'm not one of them.
That's why I finally decided enough was enough. I needed to do something before it got worse.
The day he proposed to me was just what was needed to make me go through with it and break his heart.
And now, here he was, standing in my hotel room, asking me out for food.
I stared at his face after a while and noticed his eyes were still lingering on my body.
Blushing furiously, I tried to tug at the hem of the robe, hoping it would somehow become longer.
"So, wanna check the place out? I think you would like it."
I started to open my mouth to speak when the door to the room opened.
Edward stood at the doorway, staring between Mike and me, with an expressionless face.
What I wouldn't give to know what was running through that gorgeous head of his.
"Hello. I'll leave if you want some privacy, Bella. I'm sure I can wander around for a while if you would like."
I felt me eyes grow wide and my cheeks grow even hotter.
"No, that's okay. Edward, this is Mike, Mike, this is Edward," I said, embarrassed that he had to walk in on us, even if we were just talking.
I noticed Mike's eyes narrow at Edward.
Edward just nodded towards him, though his eyes looked like they held amusement.
"So, Bella, I guess you don't want to get something to eat?" Mike asked me, coming to stand next to me.
I discretely tried to edge away from him to gain some space between us.
"No, sorry Mike. I'm not really hungry and would just like to go to bed now."
That was a lie. I was hungry. I just didn't want to go out to eat with him. Especially not at The Golden Sun.
He seemed a little sad but nodded his head.
"That's alright. Well, I'm right across the hall if you ever want to stop by. We should definitely hang out some time. We have a lot of catching up to do."
At his last remark, I saw him glance quickly towards Edward, who had moved from his spot in the doorway to one of his bags on the floor.
"Sure, sounds great," I said before faking a yawn.
"Well, you should get to bed. I'll see you later then."
I walked him to the door and just before he walked out, he turned to me and hugged me.
"Good night Bells, sleep tight."
I awkwardly hugged him back before pulling away.
He smirked over my shoulder towards where I assumed Edward was before turning to me and winking before leaving.
Once he was gone, I shut and locked the door before turning around, only to find Edward not 3 feet from me with a smirk on his face.
"Well, if there are going to be young men calling on you every night, you probably should warn me ahead of time so I can give you some privacy," he said chuckling.
I felt the blush return to my face at his words.
"He's just a friend I haven't seen in a while," I said, leaving the part out where said friend had proposed to me.
"Just a friend, huh?"
I looked up at his smiling face and couldn't help the smile that appeared on mine.
"Yes, just friends. It would never work out between us, trust me."
He laughed at my statement.
We stood for a moment in silence before I noticed that his eyes traveled the length of my body.
I tried to cover the shiver I felt when he looked at me. Unlike how when Mike looked at me, Edward made a different feeling course through my body that wasn't anywhere near disgust.
He seemed to realize what he was doing and stepped away from me, returning to his bags.
I shook myself and went over to the bedroom doorway before turning back to him.
"I'm gonna head to bed now, but I was wondering, would you like to go the beach tomorrow? I walked by it today and it looked beautiful. I was thinking about checking it out tomorrow."
I waited for his reply, a little afraid of what his answer would be.
He seemed to be deep in thought before he looked up, into my eyes, before replying.
"That sounds great. What do you say to leaving here at about noon? We could avoid most of the crowd until later."
I wasn't anticipating his answer to be a 'yes'. It took me a moment to realize that he had agreed.
"Sure, sounds great," I said while glancing at the clock and noting the time.
"It's pretty late. We should probably get some rest if we plan on getting up in time."
He glanced over at the clock on the wall as well.
"You're right. Well, good night Bella. Sweet dreams," he said while pulling out a pair of pajama bottoms from his bag.
"Good night Edward, sweet dreams," I said before quickly hurrying into the bedroom and shutting the door before anything else came out of my mouth.
I found a pair a comfortable shorts and a tank top to sleep in.
Quickly getting dressed, I got into bed and I could feel sleep clouding my mind fast.
When I closed my eyes, I saw a pair of green eyes staring back at me.
