To the person who thought I was 12- THAT WAS SO MEAN!
My Fairytale Ending
Chapter 13
(Bella's POV)
I nearly tore my hair out at how boring this science lesson was. Dmitri smirked and leaned in. "Is she not good enough for you, Miss Bella?"
I gave him a nasty glare. "Be quiet or you'll get me in trouble again!"
Mrs. McBride looked up right in time to see me talking. "Swan, shut your mouth!" She practically barked at me. You looked over to my left. "Is she bothering you again, Dmitri?" This time her voice was sickly sweet, I was going to gag.
Dmitri gave a charming smile. "Only a little bit." The other girls in the back of the class started laughing too hard, as if he had just told the funniest joke in the world. Did they know how much they just boosted his already inflated ego? He sent a quick wink at the group and I couldn't resist rolling my eyes. He leaned back in his chair and gave a lazy grin before replying. "Don't give Miss Bella any trouble though, it's not her fault she's so fascinating. Put all the blame on me, Mrs. McBride."
Once the class had turned away, I whispered into his ear. "Trying to be the good guy?"
His eyes found mine and he drawled. "Only for you, Miss Bella."
I started laughing. Sure, Dmitri was a big flirt, but really we were nothing more then friends. We would always joke around here and there, but he was really my best guy friend. He had been the new guy who just moved in, and it had been rumored that he was hot. And when he got here, it was all proven true. He was defiantly hot, and he used that to his advantage. But ever since he got here he has never shown any interest in me being his girlfriend, and for that I was glad.
Mrs. McBride saw me and got mad. "Swan, I want you outside now!"
Giving Dmitri a quick punch on the arm, I walked outside.
Mike and his friends- otherwise known as the jocks of the school- we sitting around joking. Once seeing me they made me come over, against Mike's wishes.
Mike spoke up first. "Well if it isn't Ms. Heartbreaker. Glad to see you made it back to Forks not pregnant."
I stood up and walked over to stare him straight in the eye. "I'm not the one whose being a complete jerk?"
Mike laughed in my face. "Oh, a complete jerk, huh? I didn't go asking for you to understand how I felt when you broke up with me now, did I?"
"Since we had friends forever, I thought you could try to understand why I was doing that, but that's beyond your comprehension level, isn't it?" I sneered in his face.
Mike just gave a loud grunt and advanced towards me. Before anything happened, a had flew out and hit Mike straight in the face. I looked to see Dmitri standing over Mike, a deadly look over his face. "Don't you ever even look at Bella again, do you hear me?" He shouted at Mike.
Mike just gave him a crude gesture with his hand and walked off, the other boys following. I muttered a weak, "thanks."
His eyes were still cold as he looked over at me. "He didn't do anything did he?"
"No."
"Good. So what was that about anyway?"
"He was just asking about my trip to Rome."
"How was it anyways?"
"Fine." He sensed the sadness in my voice though.
"Bella, just tell me what happened."
Because I had been wanting to tell someone this for weeks, and I knew Dmitri cared, I told him the whole story. Up to the very end about how I still feel about Edward, and I realized what a stupid mistake I had made.
At the end he smiled thoughtfully, thinking. "I need to make an urgent phone call. Thanks for telling me this, Bella. I'm sorry I got you in trouble in science, by the way."
"Okay. See you." I picked myself of my feet, happy to finally have a guy friend to rely on.
(Edward's POV)
My phone went of in my jeans. Quickly grabbing it, I flipped it open. "Hello?" I asked.
Dmitri's voice rang through the speakers. "Hey old friend, you'll never guess what I found out."
"You're keeping Bella safe, right? I know she rejected me but I couldn't very well send you back here after I already called you to go over there."
"Yes, I'm keeping Bella safe, just like you asked me to. But here is the real news- Bella still likes you."
"What?" I asked shocked.
"You heard me, Edward. I suggest you come get your buns in gear and take her before I have to hoard her off from another crazy girl, desperate to know things about you."
I moaned. "That doesn't really happen, right?"
"Actually, my friend, it does. That's beside the point, though. Just to point it out, the Halloween dance is coming up, and Bella doesn't have a date. Do something about, I swear you two are made for each other."
I laughed delightedly. "You really are the best man for the job. Thanks Dmitri."
"No problem, I like getting a whole new set of girls when I came to this new school. I could do more of these missions you know. It's what I am trained to do, being in the FBI and all."
We both said goodbyes. I flipped it shut and started singing a happy tune while I walked off, a plan forming in my head.
(Bella POV)
My mom burst into my room, breathless. "Honey, I just got this package!" She said, and gestured to the long garment bag in front of her.
Curious, I went over to her and picked it up. After taking off all the tape, and other things, and I opened the bag. Out came the most beautiful dress I had ever seen. It was brown and light blue. It laced up the back and was off the shoulders. Attached in the back was a small note- 'Be my princess for the Halloween dance.'
Taken aback I took a better look at the glamorous dress. It was finely made and well over a hundred dollars. Someone with money obviously sent this. And they wanted me to go to the Halloween dance with them. For the dance we were all supposed to dance up in costumes, so being a princess was fine, if not a bit too much for me.
I looked over at my mom's face, only to see her gaping in shock. "Who do you think sent it?" I asked her.
"No one around here, that's for sure!"
I frowned as I looked at the dress again as Edwards name popped into mind. I had tried to ovoid any thought of him after being so rude to him back in Rome. No, it would never be him.
Maybe it was Dmitri's idea of some hilarious joke, since that boy did have the money for something like this. But I knew for a fact Dmitri already had a date to the Halloween dance, being asked about twenty different times.
I sighed closing the bag, I couldn't bring myself to ever return the breathtaking dress and since I needed a costume anyways I figured it wouldn't hurt to wear the dress. Smiling I wondered who in the had given me this dress.
Hope you liked the chapter. Since it has been two weeks now if I get over 25 reviews I update SUNDAY!!!
