Chapter 25 - BPOV

I get up for school and go to shower.

I am nervous about school, but as long as Edward is by my side I will be fine.

My mom isn't happy with me.

She wants me with Mike, no matter what.

But it's my choice and I choose Edward.

He makes me feel special. He loves me and I love him, and if people can't accept that then they can fuck off.

I hear him beep his horn and I run down the stairs.

He is by the car waiting for me.

I lean up to kiss him and he hugs me to him.

"Morning sweetheart," he says as he hands me a rose.

"Morning," I say as I take the rose. "Thank you."

"Your welcome. How is everything?" he asks looking at my house.

Yeah, I know she is there looking.

"Great, she's not happy," I say motioning towards the window. "But I don't care. You, kiss, make, kiss, me, kiss, happy."

We kiss passionately against the car door and I snake my hand up his back pushing him into me.

I can feel him hard against my leg.

I pull away and smile.

"I love you," I say with a smirk.

"I love you too, but we need to go to school."

"Yeah, I guess.

He drives to school holding my hand.

I'm nervous.

The closer we get to school, the more nervous I feel.

He pulls into a parking spot, and of course everyone is standing around.

With a deep breath, I wait for Edward to open the door.

He stretches out his hand and I place mine in his, and we walk towards the school.

I can hear them whisper and see them point at us.

As we pass some of the football team, I see Mike standing there with a bandage on his nose.

I tense up and Edward squeezes my hand.

I look up at him and he smiles.

I relax some as we walk.

"Bella," Mike calls.

I turn to look at him.

"So you break up with me and already fuck him?" he sneers. "That's just wrong. He's a loser, a nobody and now you're a loser too."

That hurt some but also it didn't.

I walk up to him and get in his face.

"Edward is NOT a loser. He is the most beautiful man in this school. He knows how to treat a woman, and he is the kindest, most gentle, loving person I have ever seen. He loves me, and makes me feel special and wants me."

"Whatever, I hope he was worth your friends."

I look over at them and then look at Edward, I grab his hand and turn back to Mike, " He is."

I walk away with Edward as Alice and Rose come up to me.

"Bella, we will always be your friends," Alice says as she hugs me.

"Yeah, Mike thinks he owns everyone, but he doesn't," Rose says.

"Thanks," I say as we continue walk into school.

I have Edward and my friends.

I lean into Edward and kiss him.

Life is good.

Some say you find love in strange places, they are right.

I did.
