Well see ! i updated. And also added some politics. Sorry if might be a little bias. I am a democrate because of Bush so don't get to hasty. Also, i would like thank you people. You guys have so much paitence.
Edward.
Why him god?
See, this is the reason why I turn Buddhist.
Edward the "Adonis" was sitting in the lobby, hands in his lap looking up in the ceiling.
"Yes Edward? Do you need something?" I asked. I notice the squeak in my voice that was there for no apparent reason.
He looked up at me and frowned. "I didn't know that you were this popular in the journalism world."
"Well, I am. So why are you here? Trying to ruin my day that is already ruined?"
The crease in his forehead deepened.
"What happened?"
I rolled my eyes. So now, he decides to turn all nice and stuff. It is like he wants something…
"Is there anything I can do for you? Other wise, have a story that I need to finish writing."
Edward got up from his seat and stood in front of me with his hands in his pockets. In an effect, I cross my arms and stare him down.
"Okay," he said defeated by moi. "I accidentally left my keys in the apartment, and I didn't expect Alice to leave the country. So can I borrow your keys?"
So that is where all the politeness is coming from? He needs something. Something from me. Therefore, he thinks that he being (which is not exactly nice but a bit scary) nice would let me give him all the things he wants.
"Sorry, I need mine." I said curtly.
"Oh come one! I need to get into the apartment since I have a test tomorrow and I need to study."
"You're smart you should know this stuff. Well actually, since you are asking for my help when you know that I am going to say no is not really proving it. Yeah, but I am not giving you my keys."
I smirked at him, happy for my victory.
Edward sighed, know that I won and looked at me plainly.
"How would you feel if you were in my position?"
I thought about it.
"I wouldn't be stupid enough to forget my keys."
"Serious here."
"Fine. As soon as I done with my story then I will take you home like the stupid boy you are. "
"I am not a boy," Edward mumbled.
Little did Edward know that, I have not even started that much on my story. In addition, little did I know that Jessica was still in my office. So instead of getting my work done faster, I ended up with two equally annoying people in my office talking nonstop. Jessica was flirting tartly and well Edward actually fell for it. I mean, he is actually falling for the "hair flip, squeal, bounce, smile, and pout." It was… pathetic.
Which is why I am happy Alice got the better gene pool of the family.
"Oh Edward, who new lawyers were so handsome. I mean, when do you get the time to work out all the time?" Jessica cooed.
"Oh I get around. After I take my test tomorrow, I will be free for a month." Said Edward.
He gets around.
My phone rang; giving me silence then murmurs was all I heard.
"Hello?"
"Hey Bella, I have some good news"
Angela.
"Oh what kind of news?" A law passed that I could kill my roommate's brother without going to jail.
"Well, guess who is currently drinking Green Tea in Primrose garden while talking to another person about politics."
"Paris Hilton?"
"No. Does she even know how to spell politics?"
"Dunno. I will Google it later. So who is it?"
"Obama and Clinton."
I almost dropped the phone. This was a journalist dream. To get the scoop about the Democratic Party during election year.
"I am on my way."
"Don't have to hurry, they been through 10 cups altogether, I think they like it here."
"SO you want subliminal advertising?"
"You don't have to."
"Well I will be there in fifteen. Save a table for two."
"Two? I though Alice was in Tokyo with Jasper?"
"No, the other Cullen."
"So you guys are in good terms?"
I rolled my eyes.
"Stop rolling your eyes at the telephone, Bella. It has feelings too."
"Well, he locked himself out of the flat and is stuck with me until I give him the key."
"And you're not giving him the key?"
Duh.
"I am a responsible person Ange. I care for the flat. I also care for my humor too."
"I don't want blood in my café."
"You have been talking to Alice I see."
"Casual hellos and warnings."
"See you in a few Ange."
I hung up the phone. Obama and Clinton. Not only will the New York Times get a newt terrific story but a new headliner journalist.
I packed up my papers and save my desktop, and then shut off my computer. I turned around, "Time to go Edward."
He looked at me wistfully, then handed Jessica a card, "Call me when you're bored or something."
Jessica's face was bulging, and she greedily took the card.
"Jess, I need you to tell Mr. Clime that I may have a good story for him tomorrow, and then lock up the office and don't look through anything."
"Yes Bella," she smiled then headed out the door.
"You don't trust Jessica?" Edward asked.
"She writes for the new gossip column. He first story, "Office scandals"."
"It's not like you have anything to hide."
"Murder plans and poison is something she could use."
He looked at me dubiously and followed me out of the office and into the streets. I started walking toward Angela's Café, walking my usual pace. I could here Edwards footstep behind me until he was suddenly right besides me.
"Don't get wrong, but isn't the apartment the other direction?" he asked breathlessly.
"You are totally correct. Good job, you know your way around New York." I commented.
He was silent for a while, "Are you leading me to my death?"
"No, why would I do that? Your parents would waste so much money then."
When we were at the café, I walked in and greeted Angela. She was talking to Ben at the counter.
"Hello Ben. Angela." I said politely. Ben nodded; not much for words. Angela gave me a hug then looked behind me.
"And who is this?" she exclaim in fake surprise.
I turned to look at Edward who rather looked like he was on the edge of hysteria.
"This is Alice's brother Edward that I told you about."
I smiled at Edward, hoping he would give into my innocent expression.
He nodded politely and just stood there.
Ange lead us to our table and settle us with my usually order. I took off my lap bag and took out my laptop. Thankfully, Angela had a free table pretty close the Obama and Clinton. They seem to at ease drinking there tea. I could hear their conversation, about the way the economy was being misleading. I wrote down their thoughts and idea's. I was so absorbed in it; I had to stop myself from expressing my views.
When the direction of the conversation started heading differently, I save my document and shut off my laptop. That is when I notice that Edward was missing. I looked around the surrounding seat to see if he did not want to be seen with me. With no sign of him, I flagged down Angela.
"Have you seen Edward? I think he finally granted my wish."
"Well, no he thought he would perform. And my, is he good."
Perform?
