Chapter Three: Leave Me Breathless
I had been in the trailer for about five minutes when Alice came bouncing in. Normally by now I would have been changed into some baggy sweatpants and an old college t-shirt, but looking through my clothes I couldn't find a thing to wear.
"Spill Bella." Ah I should have known.
"What are you talking about Al?" I tried to stay cool but really I was dying to tell someone. Hell anyone.
"You know exactly what I'm talking about missy. You go away for a jog and come back with an uber hottie that cant take his eyes off of you. And judging by your lack of ugly sweatpants and ratty t-shirt, you must be pretty into him too." Man Alice sure was good.
"Okay, okay. He is absolutely gorgeous."
"Nah girl. I want deets."
"Fine. I was jogging back to camp when I accidentally ran into him. And since we were heading back to the same place it only seemed natural that we walk together and before we both knew it we were back at the campsite. Now if you would please help me find something to wear." I could see Alice's face start to light up so I quickly continued. "But so help me God Alice, I don't want to walk out of this trailer looking like a hooker. Something simple ."
Alice jumped into the bedroom where my suitcases were and started going through stuff before I could even finish while I jumped in the shower. I had gotten a pretty good run before I ran into Edward so I was kind of sweaty. I took my time washing my hair and body and even shaving my legs. Even though I told Alice nothing too revealing, I knew nice smooth legs were needed.
I got out of the shower and wrapped myself in one of the big fluffy towels while I used the other one I had grabbed to begin drying my hair. When I looked on the bed to see what Alice laid out I was somewhat pleased. She had placed some cute skinny leg jeans and a deep blue tank top on the bed. She had also placed some pretty skanky black panties and bra on the bed. Before I could grab something more comfortable from my bag she handed me the clothes and pushed me back into the bathroom.
While in the bathroom I put on some light makeup using the tips Alice had shown me and dried my hair. Luckily is was falling into some nice curls that were easy to manage and took very little product to get to cooperate. I put on the 'Alice approved' outfit and stepped out of the bathroom once more. Alice was waiting in the bedroom with a pair of deep blue flats in hand to inspect before I stepped out to meet Rose and the guys.
"Bells, there is in no way in hell that boy is going to be able to keep his hands off you. Now lets go back outside. I haven't talked to Jazzy in a whole 20 minutes."

As soon as Bella had entered her trailer I hurried into ours. I wanted to get a quick shower after my jog and most importantly I wanted to avoid my best friend and brother who had both been eyeing us curiously.
After showering and putting on some khaki shorts and a white button down shirt, I walked out of the bathroom to find Emmett sitting on the couch waiting for me with a huge grin on his face. Ugh. I know that look.
"So Eddie boy, I see you're getting over this whole Tanya thing nicely. That Bella is smoking hot. Not as hot as that Rosalie chick but still. I'm proud of you little bro."
"What Tanya thing? There is no Tanya thing. We've been over for a while now and before that I was trying to get rid of her. And as for Bella I would appreciate it if you wouldn't talk about her like that. She seems like a nice girl."
"Whoa. No need to get your panties all in a bunch. Besides, I think a chick like that could be really good for you. Seriously bro, how long has it even been since you've gotten laid? Some sweaty, hot, in the woods action might be just what you need to get that stick that is permanently up your ass loosened."
Leave it to Emmett to be completely crude like that. I guess he does have a point. It has been way to long since I've been with a woman. But there's something about Bella. Even just walking back to the campgrounds in silence I could almost swear I felt something there. And maybe, just maybe she felt something too. The glances she cast in my direction on the short walk back didn't go unnoticed on my part after all.
The thought of her looking at me made me smile as I walked out of our camper to see everyone, including Bella, sitting around the table looking absolutely breathtaking despite her simplicity in appearance. The pixie like girl who I now knew as Alice was staring intensely at Jasper from across the table and he seemed to be looking back just as hard. Emmett was seated next to Rosalie and appeared to be drooling as she completely ignored him. And Bella was sitting next to Alice with the only empty seat next to her. That made me extremely happy as I'm sure was obvious by the grin on my face. She looked to be fidgeting, and I couldn't help but chuckle at the adorableness of the whole thing.
"Eddie, so glad you could grace us with your presence," Emmett called from his seat as the rest of the table looked up as I walked over. I took my seat next to Bella praying that the guys would go easy tonight. Not for my sake but for hers.

I had come out of our trailer to find picnic table between our campsites covered with what could only be described as a feast. I don't think I'd ever seen that much food. But I guess I couldn't expect three simple salads if we were going to be joined by our new neighbors. Especially that big guy Emmett. I'm sure he alone could eat the majority of the food laid out. Although by the look on his face, it didn't seem he was all to interested in the food. Well, not nearly as much as he was into checking out Rose. I hadn't noticed his eyes leave her since I came back out.
The look on her face was anything but amused though. Rosalie wasn't so into the whole gawking thing, though by now she should be used to it. It didn't come to a surprise at all when she went to sit down and he followed right behind taking the seat to her left. I had every intention of taking the seat next to him so that Alice and Jasper could sit next to each other as well, but Jasper was quicker and took the seat to the right of Emmett with Alice sitting across the table from him. The wink from Alice in my direction was so obvious that even Emmett laughed. Hesitantly, I took my seat next to Alice and couldn't help but fidget my hands under the table waiting for Edward to come out so at least the awkward silence would be filled with the sound of everyone eating.
I guess I had started to space out, my thoughts being consumed by copper hair and emerald green eyes, only to be brought back to reality by Emmett practically screaming from the other side of the table announcing Edwards presence. I couldn't help but smile as he took his seat next to me. He seemed to be sitting a little closer than one would expect for someone who just met and I prayed that I wasn't reading too much into it. I also couldn't help but pray that Rose and Alice took it easy tonight, for my own sake and for Edwards.
Please review and let me know what ya think...even if its that it completely sucks.
