Road Trip
Chapter 13- Troy

"Oh, gosh Carmen! It's been forever! And AWH! IS that Ethan? Where's Elezar? Ooh..." Alice babbled.

I tuned her out and concentrated on anything but our little cluster here. In the distance, I saw a head of short brown/blonde hair. It reminded me of someone...

But, it couldn't be HIM, could it?

Alice babbled on and on about Ethan and other stuff.

I saw that flash of that brown/blonde hair again and I decided I just had to go and investigate.

Without as so much as a 'be right back' I took off towards the piles of food laid down for breakfast. The guy with the hair was facing toward a plate of waffles with his back towards me.

I pretended to be looking at the breakfast items while peeking at him from the corner of my eyes.

The boy then turned around and I got a glimpse of his face.

It was HIM! Troy!

I dropped the strawberry I was holding and booked it towards him.

He saw me just in time. I could see he recognized me from the way his blue eyes sparkled is as I threw my arms around him.

Troy Styles. 18, dirty blond, blue eyed god of Sir. Andrew Woolfe High School in Arizona.

I knew him because him and Emmett were friends for the brief year we had to move to Arizona back when I was 15. He was one of our closest friends and i had missed him so much.

"Bella! It's been forever!" He yelled, happily.

"I know! Oh gosh, Emmett will be SO happy to see you, Troy!" I squealed, pulling back.

He laughed out loud, "He's here too?"

I beamed, "Yup! Me him and 4 more of our friends are here for a proj-" but i was cut off by a high pitched voice behind me. Alice.

She was running towards me, Edward on her heals.

"Bella! We were so worried!" She breathed out when she reached me. Then her eyes shifted to Troy, "Who's this?"

I smiled at her, "This, is Troy Styles. The star quarterback, bad boy and the guy every girl wants in Sir. Andrew Wolfe Secondary in Arizona. Me and Emmett met him when we moved there remember? We uhm...even dated, for like, a month. Haha" I mumbled the last part out awkwardly.

Alice smile and was about to extend her hand when Edward shoved her to the side and extended his own hand.

"Edward Anthony Mason Cullen." He started, "I'm everything you are in MY school." Then he smirked straight at me. I groaned.

"Star quarter back? You seem like too much of a softie for that." Troy said smirking right back at him.

"That sounds like a challenge." Edward said, still with that smirk plastered on his face.

"It was, me against you some day. What do you say?"

Edward was about to respond when Alice nudged him to the side, rolling her eyes.

She extended her hand, "Mary Alice Cullen. Call me Alice!" she squealed.

Troy smiled at her, "Does shortie work?"

"Fine by me!" Alice beamed.

We continued the conversation until Emmett, Rose and Jasper showed up. There were introductions and laughs.

We told Troy how we were here for a geography project and we found out that Troy had been accidentally left here on his way to Chicago with his team for some sort of football championship.

He told us that his coach said he was going to have to find his own way to Chicago for being tardy and not getting on the bus in time.

Rosalie had an idea, "Its ok Troy! You can come with us! Our next stop is Chicago anyway!"

"Yes!" Emmett bellowed.

"Nooo." Edward mumbled.

"Uhm, sure. If it's ok with you all." Troy smiled.

"It's fine." I told him, "We'll leave 5AM tomorrow morning so everybody best be getting some rest!" It was already 10pm...time was flying.

"Ok!" Troy agreed easily, "My rooms on floor 7, see you guys tomorrow!" And with that, he left.

The 6 of us made our way to our rooms on the 14th floor. Everybody said goodnight and went into their own rooms until me and Edward were the only ones there. I was about to go into my room when he stopped me.

"Bella!" He called.

I growled, "WHAT?"

He laughed, "Woah! PMSing much? Haha anyways, I heard you liked bad boys."

I rolled my eyes, "What?"

"Yea, well, not that I'm trying to impress you or anything, but I eat my soup with a fork." He stated matter-of-factly.

And then he disappeared into his room.

"What?" I called to no one in particular. Then i just shook my head and went inside.

Whatever.

A/N Haha, liked? Next chapter will be up in lesser than 4 days...promise.
