The last chapter might of seemed a bit rushed, but I only briefly changed certain details, I couldn't really be bothered to change the whole thing, so sorry about that. I'm going to be slowing it down a bit now, this chapter isn't much but I thought I'd get their first hour together over with first before I start anything else. I'm not exactly sure where I'm going with this, it depends which idea I decide to roll with.

Please review and tell me what you honestly think. Last chapter got nearly 60 hits and only one person reviewed. Thank you to 'SPOONS Secret Agent Alice' for being that one person, it actually made my day that somebody did and is the reason I've decided to maybe carry this on.

I've only just wrote this and I don't have a beta, so sorry if there's any errors.

Breathe in, right foot, left foot, exhale, right foot, left foot, breathe in. I chanted this in my head on the way to Starbucks. The auburn haired god beside me kept giving me a few odd glances, probably at my concentrated face, but hopefully he'll just think I'm shy. After a few minutes he tried to make polite conversation, like how long I'd worked at somerfield, why I worked there and he even resorted to talking about the weather. Each time I'd just give a simple answer and keep going over the chant, I'd rather not trip in front of him anymore times then I already have or at least keep it to one trip a day.

When we finally reached Starbucks he was a perfect gentleman and opened the door for me. Upon entering I noticed a few people start staring in our direction. Well when I say people, I mean girls, and their staring at the beautiful man beside me.

"Hi, how can I help you" cooed the annoyingly pretty girl behind the counter. Was it just me or was she looking only at him? I decided it was time to make my presence known to this bimbo.

"I'd like a mocha frappuccino please" I said with the biggest smile I could muster, I looked over to HHB who just asked for the same. Sticking with his gentlemanly status, he paid for both drinks, regardless to what I said. We went over to a secluded section in the corner which situated a rather large looking sofa. When I got comfortable I finally built up the courage to take a good look at him, he was wearing dark faded jeans with a few rips near the kneecap and a light blue shirt which had the top few buttons undone. That was enough to make me swoon right there, how on earth am I going to survive an hour in his presence without looking like an idiot.

"So Bella, tell me some more about yourself" about my self? Where the hell do I start? Wait a minute...

"H...How do you know my name?" wow way to be cool.

"I saw it on your name badge, my names Edward by the way" A small smile crept on his face as he said this. My mouth formed a slight 'O' shape. Of course he'd of seen what my name is, but at least I have a name for him now; it's a lot better then HHB. I held out my free hand to him.

"Nice to meet you Edward" I'm pretty sure I had a Cheshire cat grin on my face right about now, but I didn't care. He chuckled at this and tenderly took my hand in his "It's a pleasure to properly meet you Bella" he grinned back with a smile that even topped mine and I know why. Of course he's not going let our first meeting go, it's going to haunt me for eternity. My face began to flush with embarrassment and I quickly averted my gaze to my frappuccino, gently cupping my hands around it, loving the tingling sensation it gives my fingers.

"How old are you Bella?" I think he was taking pity on me by changing the subject, which I was glad for.

"I'm 18, what about you?"

"I'm 21, do you just work at somerfield?" he asked sceptically.

"Oh no, I only work there part time, I'm still at college, I just really need the money to pay for rent"

"What is it that you do?"

"I work with my Father at the local hospital; I'm training to become a Doctor" oh, beautiful and smart "What courses do you take at college? Any aspirations?"

"I'm taking English, Media,Sociology and Health and Social care, in the hope that one day I can become a writer, well that's the dream anyway." He smiled at this. Maybe he digs the brainy chicks? I hope so, I've got that going for me far more then miss bimbo behind the counter over there, from what I can see she's making a right pickle out of her customers drink at the moment.

Conversation between me and Edward carried on much like this for the next half an hour, just getting to know one another's likes, dislikes, family arrangement. It turns out he has two sisters called Alice and Rosalie. Rosalie is a year older and Alice is my age, and it turns out she's in my the same year as me at college. What a small world. Unfortunately my lunch break was only an hour, so he escorted me back to work and we exchanged numbers and agreed we'd arrange to meet each other soon. Maybe next time I'll have enough time to physically and mentally prepare myself for being alone with him again.
