Chapter 2 - EPOV

Two scoops of vanilla, small twist, raspberry sorbet... I sigh as I fill another order, just wishing I would see her already. I really don't mind working at Scoops. It could be worse.

Mom and Dad always insisted I have a job, something about 'teaching me responsibility'. Who was I to argue?

Forks isn't exactly swimming with job opportunities for high school seniors, so it's here or Newton's, and let's face it...I'd rather be just about anywhere than around Mike Newton.

It was sunny today, that's a good sign because I know that when it's nice out Bella stays around longer than normal. It's the highlight of my shift when she comes in to get ice cream every afternoon.

I doubt she even notices me in school, why would she when she's dating that loser Newton.

I look up when the bell on the door chimes, just hoping that it's her.

Luck is on my side as I see her wavy auburn hair and deep chocolate eyes staring back at me.

I already know what she will order, it's the same everyday, but I love to hear her say it just the same.

As if on cue, she orders her usual and I get to work.

I might take my time when I prepare her order, and if she notices, she doesn't say anything.

Does that mean she likes me too?
