Ok, so I feel kind of bad for not getting this out sooner. And I could give youa whole list of excuses but I don't think any of you will care for reading my excuses. I'm not sure how long this story will be, because I'm kind of incorperating a story that I had in mind before this that had the same basic concept. So I know what the ending will be but the ay I'm going to get there is still a mystery to me lol.
Hope you all can forgive me for the long wait and I hope this was worth it. If not let me know and I'll try to make the next chapter better. Onward to the new chapter.

I stood in the bathroom not wanting to face what was on the other side of the door. I knew what was waiting for me and if we weren't on the third floor I would climb out the bathroom window, down the drain pipe n run as fast as I can…hopefully without tripping. But knowing me and my infamous clumsiness I would trip. Heck I would probably fall out the window, or be climbing down the drain pipe and my pj pants get stuck n then I have to get out of them and climb the rest of the way in my boy shorts. I'm sure Mr. and Mrs. Hale would love that.
They pull up to the house and see me pulling my shirt down as I walk across the lawn. Then they look at their house seeing an open window, a bent drain pipe with my pj pants hanging from them.
Then knowing my luck Alice and Rosalie will pop their head out the window and they'll say something about me running away and streaking or stripping as I do.
Oh and did I mention that Mr. Hale is also the mayor of Forks.
Yeah I know.
AWKWARD!!!
Bang, bang bang!
"Bella get you're cute fuzzy pj pants wearing ass out here NOW!"
Leave it to Alice to include what you're wearing as she's yelling at you. I swear she needs a life outside of Jasper, makeovers and fashion. Oh and did I mention she's tried to set me up with every 'suitable' guy she knows. Which means hot model types that like their reflection more than anything else. Plus they never have any brains.
"Isabella Marie Swan we need a long girl talk now!!!" she yelled as she banged on the door harder.
"Bella if she breaks my door you're paying for another one," Rose said like this kind of thing happened all the time. Okay, it kind of did, but can you blame me, that pixie is crazy.
"Bella," Alice whined holding out my name from the other side. "Please?"
"Bella she's doing the pout," Rose said.
"I know, I can already picture it and I can't even see her. Is she on her knees yet?"
"Almost but she's short enough that it's the same no matter what," she laughed.
"Screw you two. Besides admit it Rose you wanna hear about how Geekward was just as much as I do."
"That doesn't mean I'll do everything short of smoking her out of the bathroom."
"Do you think that'll work?" Alice asked.
"You are not ruining my bathroom Mary," Rose replied and I could just see Alice's face as Rose called her by her first name, she hated it.
"Amazon," Alice replied and I can just picture what they looked like.
Slowly I opened the door and I was completely right in my thought. Rose was standing, towering at least 9 inches taller. Alice was craning her head to try and be taller.
Then Alice hoped on top of Rose's bed making her about 4 inches taller than Rose and stuck her tongue out. The seriousness of Alice's face made Rose and I laugh and I walked over to my two best friends as Alice gracefully fell to a sitting position. Rose moved to sit on the other side of me and I knew I was trapped.
"So…" Rose started as Alice was making the bed vibrate from her bouncing.
"So what?" I asked trying to prolong it.
"Oh my God Bella just freaking spill already," said the bouncing energizer bunny.
"What do you want me to say?" I asked looking between them.
"Was he a good kisser? What did his hair feel like? Did he pull you onto his lap? Was it sloppy? Was it forceful? Demanding? Desperate? Did he grab your ass? Did he seem experienced? First timer? Did you kiss him back? Was there tongue? Did you moan? Did he moan?" they kept asking these questions that I wasn't sure who were asking which questions. "Did you dry hump?" Okay, that was definitely Rose and Alice and I both looked at her.
"You spend way too much time with Emmett," I said as Alice nodded in agreement.
"C'mon it's a valid question. You were sitting in his lap and very close so you never know," she shrugged as looked for an imperfection on her perfect nails.
"Okay well, let's pretend Rose didn't say that last question. So…?" Alice asked.
"I didn't understand any of those other questions you two asked. All I heard was jumbled words."
"Fine, jus at least tell us how it was before the pixie breaks the springs," Rose said.
"It…it was…God I don't even know how to describe it," I said biting my lip as I thought about it. The best kiss I've ever had. I fell back against the bed placing a hand over my heart as I sighed. "It was perfect."
"Uh oh, someone's got it bad," Alice said.
"Very bad," Rose added.
"I do not," I retorted knowing full well that they were right. And they both looked at me with pure disbelief written on their faces. "Fine I do, okay? So I like him."
"I do have to admit he did look good today," Rose said as her and Alice lay down beside me.
"I know, he has definite potential, maybe…" Alice trailed off and I knew what she was thinking.
"Alice, you can't do that to Edward."
"Why not with Rose's and mine skills put together we can make Geekward into Godward," she giggled. I just rolled my eyes at her.
"Why not Bella? I mean Alice is right. That boy can look like the Greek god that's trapped inside that geek exterior."
"Because…" I shrugged. Neither of them knew about the crush that I've had on him since I first came here. Then I was too shy to even talk to him or let alone say a simple hi. Even though he's a geek I've still always liked him.
"I knew it," Rose said sitting up. "You've always liked him haven't you?"
"No," I answered as I avoided eye contact with both of them. And I felt that darn heat rise to my face giving me away. And then a high pitched squeal broke the silence of the room.
"And I'm deaf," Rose said.
"OMG Bella how long? And why haven't you told us before? If you did I definitely would've had him looking perfect by now," said the excited pixie as she kept rambling on.
As Alice kept talking, Rose leaned down to me. "Really there's a ringing in my ear," she said loud enough for me to hear as she motioned to her ear.
After a bit longer of hearing Alice ramble on about the possibilities she can have if she did a makeover on Edward and then me arguing with her so she wouldn't we moved onto our regular topics of girl talk. Which meant shopping, makeup and hair; three things that I could care less about.
That night as I started to drift to sleep I thought about Edward again and that amazing kiss. Though I would never wish the horrible torture that Alice put me through during the makeover on anyone, I couldn't deny Alice's talents of being able to make him look like a Greek god. Slowly I drifted asleep with thoughts of Edward and I being together and sharing more kisses like the ones I got today. And that night was the first night I dreamt of Edward Cullen.

When I got home later that night I was still on a high from that kiss, even though I've gotten more paint on me than I ever wanted. My parents were out so I made a quick sandwich as I went up and turned the water on for a shower. All through that night I couldn't stop thinking about Bella.
All throughout that weekend I could still feel her lips against mine as they moved in sync. The warmth of her body as I held her close. The amazing strawberry sent that was uniquely her. The taste of her on my tongue. And especially the way she fit perfectly in my arms like two puzzle pieces being put together for the first time.
When Monday came around I was still forced to wear the contacts which I started to get used to. And I was on cloud nine all weekend. As I was driving to school I wasn't sure what to expect, mostly since I had to sit next to her in biology.
As I pulled up to my usual spot at the far corner of the parking lot of the school I was able to see Bella with her friends. They were all laughing at something Emmett said. Though there were about a group of seven or eight all I could focus on was Bella. She looked absolutely stunning as she threw her head back laughing. As the sun peeked through the Olympic Peninsula's cloud cover, you could see faint natural red highlights when the sun caught her hair just right.
I got out of my car sliding my backpack onto my back and swiftly walked into the school. When I walked pass Bella I couldn't help but steal a glance at the girl that has stolen my heart. As our eyes met a beautiful blush crept over her cheeks as she bit her lip. Then she looked down as if she was embarrassed, well, probably embarrassed for me ogling the most amazing girl in the school that's out of my reach.
I looked down and walked to my first period to spend the rest of the day thinking about Bella. When lunch came I spent it at my usual table away from everyone else with my friend Ben Cheney and his girlfriend Angela Weber. When I got there Ben was talking about the Ninja Assassin movie that came out recently, while Angela being a good girlfriend was acting like she was interested. When I sat down Ben started to talk to me about going to see the movie and Angela looked relieved that she didn't have to seem interested and could now finish the book she had in front of her.
"And it's supposed to be completely real and very minimal CGI of the stunts. So what do you say Edward you wanna go?" Ben asked after a whole long description that I wasn't able to focus on. I was too busy thinking about next period with Bella.
"Yeah, sure Ben," I responded as I looked over at Bella.
"So when are you going to finally ask her out? I mean you already kissed her," Ben asked.
"Wait how did you know?"
"We were at the carnival and I saw you in line to kiss her," he shrugged.
"I'm not sure, I don't know if I really want to push my luck. I mean, yeah I got a kiss, but that was because it was at a charity carnival. And so I'd rather stay on the outskirts watching her than become even more of a loser once she rejects me."
I went to push my glasses up out of habit but then remembered that I still had none on. So I tried to not look like a dork forgetting I didn't have glasses on and just opted for it to look like I meant to run my hands through my hair.
The rest of lunch was pretty uneventful. Ben kept talking about the movie, I'm not sure why he even bothered to go when he already knew as much as possible about it. But we still made plans to go, which I could see Angela relax at us saying it was just going to be the two of us. Though her and Ben loved each other and she would sit though some martial arts movie that bores her to death for him, she would rather not if she doesn't have to.
Once the bell rang I quickly gathered my things and headed towards the Biology room and as usual I was the first one there besides the teacher. Quickly I found my seat and sat there letting my leg bounce with anticipation and nervousness from how Bella would act like towards me after we shared, what I thought, was an amazing and life-changing kiss. I sat there looking down at my stack of books as my leg still bounced waiting till my short time with Bella started.
"Is there a test that I didn't know about, because if you're nervous then I'm definitely going to fail," I heard an angelic voice say beside me. I couldn't help the smile that formed on my face.
"Um…no…there's um no test that I know of at least, and I'm always here early. Even if there was I would doubt you would fail. I mean you're…smart?" it came out more of a question than a statement.
"Ummm…thanks?" she replied back as she sat down with the other students.
"You're welcome," I mumbled feeling like an idiot. Of course she was smart. I saw the grades she got. As I was about to say something the class got called to order and I wasn't one for talking or passing notes during class. I counted the seconds to the end of class when I would try and talk to her like a normal person. But I lost that opportunity as I was writing down the last of the notes as the bell rang. When it did all the students cleared out quickly including Bella.
As fast as I could I finished up my notes and gathered my things, thankful that I wore my pocket protector so I was able to slip my pen into it. Believe me ink leaking all over your shirt, not fun and you're mom will definitely not have fun trying to get it out.
Right as I looked down just for a second I felt myself colliding with a small person. And with my weight being more than theirs, I unfortunately fell on top of them, probably squishing them.
"Edward, please get off of me you're squishing me," the high voice from below me said.
"Sorry," I mumbled as I scrambled to get off of them. Once I did I found Alice Brandon lying on the ground. I tried as quickly as I could to gather my things and random papers that got thrown across the floor. "I'm sorry Alice I was in a hurry and didn't see you."
"Yeah, I'm short, hard to see, blah, blah, blah. I've heard it all before. But I was actually coming to see you. Though I never thought I would end up underneath you. Just as long as Jazz doesn't find out that you were on top of me I'm sure you'll be fine," she laughed and I tried to laugh along, but I wasn't sure if she was joking or not.
Jasper was known for being able to keep him and others around him calm. And when I worked with him at the carnival he seemed like a really nice guy, but I'm sure he was able to kick my ass easily.
"Edward, I'm just kidding."
"Umm…ok."
"But I did want to see you. Because I know you're extremely smart and my friend and I need some help with Biology, so would you be willing to help?"
"Sure, I'm able to whenever you two are."
"Okay, how about Thursday, after school."
"Works for me," I shrugged.
"Okay, good, we'll just meet up with you after school."
"Okay," I replied as she started to walk away. "Wait," I yelled to her, "who is the other person I'm tutoring?"
"Bella," she said as if it was obvious. I could faintly hear her laughing as I couldn't find any words at my surprise of who I was going to be tutoring alongside Alice.
The rest of the day went by in a daze as all I could think about was that I would be tutoring both Alice and Bella on Thursday after school. All I could think about being with Bella this Thursday. Granted Alice was going to be there too but, I was mostly nervous about spending the time with Bella there.
Like it? Hate it? Want more. Let me know by reviewing. And I don't have a Beta so I am sorry for the mistakes, but if anyone want to Beta let me know, I would greatly appreciate it.
