Disclaimer: S. Meyer owns all, I'm just havin a little fun ;)
I take the short drive to Bella's house, hoping that tonight goes well. I should have googled conversations to have during dates.
I pull up outside of her house, quickly parking the car and getting out. Walking up to the front door, I smooth out my shirt before knocking. After a few moments, Bella answers, wearing a pretty, yet simple white sundress with a purple cardigan. I let out a low whistle when I see her, making her smile and look down at her feet.
"Look at you, girl. You look amazing."
She smiles at me, leaning up towards my face and kissing me gently.
"Thanks, so do you."
I grab her hand, and we begin walking towards the car. After opening her door for her, and taking a peek at her ass, I get into my side of the car, and start it up before smiling at her.
"So, what have you been up to today?"
I reach over and grab her hand, squeezing it while she smiles over at me.
"Well, not too much. Just cleaned around the house, did some laundry. I went for a walk into town and I met a really cool girl, Alice, and we smoked at her house before going to the diner."
"Short, black hair?"
"Yeah, I actually had a lot of fun with her, I could see us becoming really good friends."
"Yeah, she's pretty cool. Her and Jasper are seeing each other, or something like that, I really have no idea what they're doing. He's had a crush on her forever and finally decided to do something about it."
"She could not stop talking about him, it was actually really cute. Told me some interesting things about you too," she says, side eyeing me.
Oh god.
I can't even imagine what it could be, we've known each other since kindergarten, so if she wanted to, she could pull out some real dirt. I hope she didn't mention how I stuck gum in her hair in the sixth grade, and she's had short hair ever since.
"Oh, yeah? Like what?" I ask, putting up a front.
"Don't worry about it."
I quickly look over at her, to see her sitting there with a smirk on her face, looking straight ahead.
"What? No, that's not fair, tell me."
"I don't know, it's just stupid gossip really, and I don't want to bring it up and seem like a psycho girlfriend. I know we haven't known each other long, clearly you're going to have a past. I mean, have you seen yourself? And, I know we haven't done much, but you got some skills, boy."
So, Bella clearly rambles when she's nervous. Cute.
Alice must have told her about Heidi. We hooked up for the past year, before she started dating some college guy from Port Angeles.
"I've been with a few girls. I was with Heidi for past year, but it was purely sexual," I say, hoping to ease her worry.
"Yeah, Alice just mentioned that you typically don't date, you mostly just hook up."
She's looking at me, studying my face as we get closer to the restaurant. I glance over at her, trying to think of how to reply. It's mostly true, but only because there wasn't anybody worth dating.
"I just never met anybody worth dating. If I'm going to date a girl, I'm going to be completely invested."
"I see."
Her words sound calm and collected, yet she's smiling looking out the window.
Nice.
We spend the rest of the ride in a lightful banter that only makes me like Bella more. I like that we can tease each other, and that I never know what's going to come out of her mouth.
Once we arrive at the restaurant, we go inside, hand in hand, and the hostess takes us to a table in the back. Luckily we're not around any other occupied tables. We don't talk much at first, just looking over our menus before ordering. We place our orders, and I take a sip of my coke, noticing that she's staring at me, with a cute little smile on her face.
"What?"
"Nothing really, I was just thinking how handsome you look with a little scruff on your face."
I absentmindedly run a hand over my face, cracking a smile.
"Yeah? Should I keep it?"
"Definitely, at least for a few days."
"Okay. So, did you have a boyfriend back in Arizona or anything?"
"Not really. I mean I dated this one guy for a while, Jake, but he cheated on me with some bitch, so.."
She trails off, looking slightly uncomfortable and not making eye contact. I've never been cheated on, but I can imagine it would be horrible.
"Aw shit, baby. I'm so sorry."
"It's okay, I'm over it."
The conversation from there is a little lighter. We talk about growing up, me with a brother that always topped all of my accomplishments, and her being an only child and having to move once her parents were divorced.
"So, why Forks?" I ask her, as we eat our delicious pasta's.
"Dad was born here. He has old friends and family here. Plus, he was kind of destroyed after him and my mom split up, I think he just needed to get away."
"And you chose to live with your dad?"
"Yeah, they got divorced because my mom felt like he was 'holding her back from discovering who she really is'. I decided she needed to figure that out on her own. Plus, I'm a total daddy's girl."
I smile at her, shoving the last bit of food into my mouth.
"Man, that was good," I say, as Bella nods in agreement. "Do you want dessert or anything?"
"No way, I'm so full."
We pay our bill and walk out hand in hand, getting into the car.
"So, did you want to hang out some more, or should I take you home?"
"That depends," she replies, smirking over at me.
"On what?"
"Do you know of any good make out spots?"
This girl.
Thanks for reading, and giving this little story a chance! I'd love to know what you guys think!
Should the next chapter be from where we left off and see if Edward gets a little action, or should we do a Bella POV and skip a bit ahead? I'm torn, so I'd love to know what you guys would like to see!
Till next time, XOXO
