Chapter 5 New Feelings

BPOV

Edward appears nervous as he looks at me.

"Um...well...my favorite color is blue. I love to take walks too. I have always lived in Forks. I'm also very happy that we met today because if we hadn't..." he leans in closer to me, "I wouldn't be able to do number five."

I lean in closer to him as well, "And what might that be?" I ask in a whisper.

We are so close I can feel his breath on my face and what a sweet feeling that is.

"I want to kiss you."

I can practically feel his lips on mine at this point and I can't take it anymore.

"So, what are you waiting for?" I whisper.

He presses his lips to mine in what has to be the sweetest kiss anybody has ever given me. No tongue, just your typical high school, chaste kiss. And it was amazing! The moment his lips were on mine, I could feel the electricity between us spark and flow from my lips all the way down to my toes.

After our lips are connected for a few seconds, Edward pulls away and looks me in the eye.

"Wow! Did you feel that? That was amazing!" Edward suddenly flushes this really cute pink color , gets a nervous look and gives me this panty dropping crooked smile, "Can we do that again?"

I giggle and without warning, I pull him down by his shirt and go in for the kill. When our lips meet, I feel that same spark of electricity that runs up and down my body as we kiss. It starts innocently enough, but turns heated pretty fast. Edward's lips against mine feel soft and warm and very, very lovely. I notice that I start to feel a bit light headed as our kiss grows into something more. I feel Edward's tongue against my bottom lip, asking permission to enter my mouth, so I gladly give him access.

Oh holy mother! What is this boy doing to me? The feeling of our tongues coming together as they wrestle around in each other's mouth...my God...there are no words. After a minute, one word finally came to mind...amazing.

After what felt like hours of kissing, we finally start to slow down a bit and pull back from each other slowly. My eyes were still closed as I was still reveling in the kiss we had just shared. I suddenly hear a giggle come from in front of me.

"Open your eyes, Bella," Edward whispers to me in my ear. I open them.

"That..erm...umm...well I...Wow!" is all I can get out without stumbling even more like a blithering idiot.

Edward chuckles.

"That's a very good way for describing our first kiss," he walks to the bed to sit. "I feel the same way."

I follow suit and sit down next to him and start to think about whether or not I really want to ask the question that I am pondering.

"How is it possible that within less than twenty-four hours I can feel such a strong 'connection' with someone so fast? Don't things like this take months to build?"

Edward looks me in the eye and breaths in and lets out a huge sigh.

"I don't understand it myself. I feel that same 'connection' as you do. That kiss, every time our lips moved against one another, I felt this spark of electricity that went from my lips all the way down to my toes. I have never felt that before. Ever."

I looked at him in total shock. Without me even explaining what I felt during our kiss, he explained everything that I was thinking and feeling to a tee. OK...I am a bit freaked out right now.

"Can I just say, you are totally wigging me out right now! You just described everything that I was feeling and thinking without me saying a word to you. That's got to mean something. Right?"

Edward was awe struck.

"Um...Maybe...I don't know," this is the moment I chose to really flip out. I stood up off the bed and start pacing wildly back and forth.

"This is so crazy! This shit doesn't happen in real life! Especially to me! Only in the movies does this shit happen!"

"Bella! Sweetness? I don't know what to-" I didn't let him finish his thought.

"Sweetness? Sweetness? Come on, Edward! Are ya fucking kidding me? It hasn't been twenty-four hours yet and you are already giving me a pet name? What the hell?

Edward was a little shaken by my reaction and throws his hands up in defense.

"OK OK! Maybe the pet name wasn't the best idea. I'm sorry. I was trying to calm you down. You are totally wigging out for no reason" he stands up and takes my hand as gently as possible and leads me back over to his bed. "We can figure this thing out. Please, just have a seat on the bed with me and we can chat. Get to know each other like we planned. Then maybe it won't seem so weird for us."

Edward gets quiet for a moment contemplating what to say next. He takes a deep breath, lets it out and looks me in the eyes.

"I have a sneaking suspicion that you are like me when it comes to relationships...uh...if that's what we are heading towards," he starts to get really nervous. " Anyway, my point is, this is as new to me as it is for you. You wouldn't be wigging out so bad if it wasn't the first time you have felt something like this. Am I right?"

All I could do was take a deep breath, let it out, and look him in the eyes.

"You're right. I have kissed a few boys before, but have never felt anything like...like...shit...I don't know what to call it. I guess connection is the best word for it," I took another deep breath and let it out. "Besides, if we are really having this 'do we want to have a relationship' conversation right now I have to know one thing."

"OK! What is it?" Edward asks.

"How do you feel about being seen in public with me?"

This time he is looking at me completely dumbfounded.

"How can you ask me a thing like that?" he puts a hand on my scarred cheek. "I really don't care what everybody else thinks," he leans in and kisses me chastely. "The first person to even look at you funny I will tell to go fuck off. How's that?"

I couldn't help but laugh at that. At the same time, I could feel the tears brimming at my eyes and Edward takes both hands this time and wipes away the tears with his thumbs.

"I don't care what anybody says. You are the most beautiful person I have ever met, scar included. It's a part of you so therefore it will need to be loved just as much as the rest of you," Edward pulls his hand away from my scar and places feather light kisses all the way down it. A few tears escape and he takes me into a long embrace.

"Thank you," I whisper as I can't get past the lump that has been building in my throat. "You are so sweet."

"It's my pleasure," Edward says as he kisses the top of my forehead. "Now...can I ask you some questions now? Because I would really like to get to know a little bit about yourself...uh...other than what you told me already of course," he laughs. Oh how I love his laugh.

"Sure. Ask away," I tell him.

Edward smiles and looks like he is really thinking hard about what he wants to ask me. It was quite cute. Then he snaps his fingers.

"Ah ha! I've got it. What is your favorite movie?"

A normal person would have gladly answered with no issue. But, I am not a normal person. My favorite movie just happens to bring back memories of my mother and it hurt. I feel the tears building and I try to hide them by looking down to the floor, but Edward lifts up my chin so I had to look him in the eye.

"Hey, I'm sorry if I upset you. I thought that was the safest I could start with," he looks a little worried and asks his next question, "do you want to talk about it?"

That question catches me off guard. Edward is just being so sweet and tries to make me feel as welcome and comfortable as possible. Normally I would think that a person was being nosy if they asked me that question. Not Edward though. I have realized that he means everything he says. Talk to him and you may feel better. I feel myself start to give into him because I feel that I can trust him. I take a deep breath, let it out.

"Well, to answer your question, my favorite movie happens to be Ever After. My mom and I had a tradition at the end of the school year. I would come home from school and my mom and I would watch it and eat popcorn. It was our 'girl time' before I would go spend the summer with my dad," I feel the tears again and a few escape. "This year wasn't any different. I came home from school and my mom put the movie in. Halfway through the movie, I really wanted popcorn..." I felt the lump in my throat and I couldn't continue. I felt a hand on my back and he began rubbing small circles on my back trying to relax and comfort me. At the feel of Edward's gentle hand on my back and as I tried to get out what I wanted to say next, I just completely lost it.

"All I did was turn on a fucking light! That's all it took to change my life forever!" I say through a strangled sob. Edward takes me in his arms and I feel his hand on the back of my head as he cradles me rocking me back and forth.

"It's OK baby. I'm here for you, and no matter how long it takes, I will always let you know how special you are, how beautiful you are, and I will make it so you never speak horrible things about yourself," he continues to hold me and whisper sweet things to me until I finally calm myself down to where I can finally talk.

"You and your freaking pet names," I say with a giggle.

Edward laughs. "You mean, after all of what I said, the thing you catch is that I called you baby? You are something else Miss Bella Swan," he says with a head shake and that crooked smile of his and pulls me closer to him.

"You're not so bad yourself Mr. Edward Cullen," I pull away from him and look him in the eye, "Thank you for being so sweet to me. You are the only one, besides Alice, who really tried to speak to me all day. Everybody seems to keep their distance from me, not that I minded, but you guys just seem to look past the fact that I have this huge scar on the side of my face. It made me feel...normal."

"You are normal. You just look a little different is all. And you know what?"

"What?" I ask.

"Everybody who doesn't talk to you is missing out. Thank God for that because with my luck, you could have ran into Mike Newton and had this 'connection' with him instead of me," Edward laughed and took my hand in his. It just seemed to fit perfectly.

"Oh no. I don't know this Mike Newton guy but I'm pretty sure of this," I shift onto my knees and move in closer to him and whisper "I was only meant to have this connection with you."

And then we kiss.

A/N **le sigh** That is all I am going to say about that.
