AN: I'm sorry that the texting was so hard to understand from now on Texting to Bella will be in BOLD, and Texting from Bella will be in Italics.
Without further ado Chapter 9:
I woke up early Thursday morning and walked into my bathroom. I pulled on Under Armour Compression Cold Gear, a random red long sleeve shirt and some black jogging leggings that hit right under my knee. I think I had bought a size to small because they fit like a second skin. Black socks and red and black Nike Shox's.
I clapped and got Mocha awake enough to get up, after letting her out she seemed less than thrilled so I let her back in the house and went to grab my iPod. I put in my Rastafarian ear buds in and walked out the front door. I knew I only had an hour but I wanted to cover some new territory. Jake had mentioned how north of the school was really pretty. I headed up the block and turned my iPod on stuff.
I think I'd run about four miles when I stopped being able to breathe through my mouth and I started to pant. I keep going at a pretty good rate when I started to run through a tunnel of pine trees. They were literally so tall they touched at the top. The song changed.
"Pa Pa Pa Porn Star Dancing" I loved this song. I used to freak out Renee by saying I wanted to be a stripper. I started dancing to it more then I was actually running and when I rounded a corner still kind of obscenely dancing.
Boom. I hit something with my back turned. At first I thought it was a tree but as I spun around I saw a person standing there.
"Hey there babe"
I knew that voice. Edward Cullen.
"Edward? What are you doing out here?"
"Well I live down the road and I was going for my morning run when I ran into you doing your uhmmm dance thing." He laughed and looked at me to respond
"In my defense I was listening to an awesome song" I was suddenly half way embarrassed which was new. I suddenly was aware of the sweat beads rolling down my back and my too tight pants.
"And what was that?" He asked coyly
"Sorry but I have to finish my run before school" I blew off his question and took off in the opposite direction. I had only run a couple of yards by the time I could feel someone following me. I knew he wasn't that easy to blow off. Suddenly I felt the iPod in my palm get pulled out and the headphones popped out of my ears.
"Porn Star Dancing" Edward articulated "Really Ms. Bella?"
"Yes" I grabbed it back and continued to jog down the road.
"Bella wait" I turned around when he called
"You actually burn more calories when you have a running partner. What to be my running partner?" Edward asked
"Oh yeah you could definitely use to burn some more calories." I then picked out a flat out sprint and waiting to see if he'd follow.
He caught up with me quicker than I'd have thought but I kept running and listening to my song as he jogged next to me. I could feel myself pushing myself more than usual. We jogged about three more miles and I was about a mile away from my house when I stopped Edward.
"I'm going to go get ready for school; It was nice running with you." I was trying to be polite. Apparently he didn't function like that.
"Well then wear something sexy, because your cute babe." He got close and kissed my chick and sprinted off before I could even respond.
I jogged back to Charlie's and opened up the door to probably the most horrid stench I've ever smelt.
The kitchen was filled with the stench of Victoria's cooking. I just walked upstairs and got in the shower.
My shower ended and I looked into my closet. The first think that caught my eye was my black and pink dress from Pac Sun. It was short and barely covered by chest but the black was low and had a thick elastic band where my bra was. The front was all black but the random pink on the back made it fun. I dressed blowing out my hair and putting on more eyeliner than usual.
When I walked down stairs I grabbed my fleece off a chair and pulled the black Mondetta fleece over my shoulders. I grabbed the keys to the Aston Martin because the roads looked clear. I looked at Charlie eating something unrecognizable on his plate;
"Charlie is James coming to school with me today?"
"No I think Victoria plans to drive him" Again a man of few words.
I left put my bong in the Tahoe and jumped into the Aston. I started the engine and plugged in my iPod.
Jake got in the car moments later and I took off on the way to the coffee shop to get breakfast
"Can I get a large hot chocolate, a large frozen apple juice, and a plain bagel and whatever he wants." I pointed to Jake still a little tired which I think they could tell with my annoyed tone.
"Can I get a large black coffee and a poppy seed muffin?" Jakes deep voice woke me up a bit, and I grabbed the drinks and the bag of food.
"Thanks Bella. Are you sure you don't want me to pay for anything?" Jake questioned
"Yeah it's fine." I laughed it off and ate in silence as we drove to school.
All of the awkward emotions between this morning and running with Edward, kept me silent until we reached school.
AN: PLEASE REVIEW:) I LOVE THEM:)
