Disclaimer: if I owned Twilight would I seriously be wasting time writing these when I could be writing the actual books? I think not. It was nice of you to think that though =]
A/N: okay well after posting the last chapter and asking you all to guess what it was, I realized it was probably fairly hard to get it exactly right. So here are the people who got the closest

Congrats to you! Now for the rest of you who don't know what it is… read and you'll find out!
Chapter 11
As soon as I got to my dorm, Alice pulled me in and shut Edward out. She was now complaining that I didn't give her enough time to make me even more gorgeous than I already was. Her words not mine. I mean its 4:30 for crying out loud! What was she going to do to me that would take 2 freaking hours?
Sadly, those 2 hours did not go by fast, but they did go by. Now I was sitting on my bed, nervously waiting for Edward. Alice had dressed me in a pair of dark jeans, sneakers, and a fake jersey shirt (top on profile). She said that I would need to be comfortable for what we were doing tonight. She also put my hair into a ponytail with a few loose pieces in my face. I had to admit, I looked fairly cute.
I heard a knock on the door and my heart went into hyperspeed. I was sure that Edward could hear it loud and clear from outside the door. Alice, seeing that I probably wasn't moving for a little bit, answered the door for me. I refocused myself and went to grab my peacoat and stuff my cell phone inside of it. I turned around and Edward was standing there in all of his beauty and I couldn't help but smile. He took my hand and led me outside and into his car.
"So… are you going to tell me where we are going?" I asked him, I still haven't put the clues together.
"Nope" he said while popping the 'p'. I let out a frustrated breath but it only made Edward chuckle.
We had been in the car for a good 10 minutes before he asked me to close my eyes.
"Why?"
"Because I don't want you to see where we are until we are inside." I sighed and closed my eyes. Normal people probably would have peeked, but I wasn't that curious.
He finally stopped the car and walked around to my side, opening my door and taking my hand so I wouldn't trip because I still had to have my eyes closed.
When I opened my eyes what I saw surprised me. I was at a place called "The Fun Spot" (a/n: no lie there's actually a place called that in New York) I saw a roller rink in front of me and as we walked farther into the Fun Spot I saw that there were a bunch of arcade games, a food counter and 2 doors. One of the doors had a sign over it saying "Go Kart Track" and the other said "Lazer Tag". I looked over at Edward confused.
"How in the world was I supposed to guess that this is where we were going from these" I pulled out the clues from my pocket, "clues? They are totally unrelated!" Edward chuckled.
"This" He held up the shoe laces, "symbolized the roller rink, cause you need shoe laces to wear the roller skates. This" he held up the mini drag racer, "symbolized the Go Kart track, I thought that was pretty easy. These" he picked up some of the coins, "are what you need to play the arcade games over there. And this," He put the bracelet around my wrist, "well in lazer tag, everything is either glow in the dark or shows up under a black light. The bracelet has both." He said smugly. I understood now. All the clues represented a different activity you could do at the Fun Spot.
Edward smiled and grabbed my hand. We walked up to the main ticket booth and got us both a yellow band for roller skating and a ticket to both lazer tag and a go kart race. Before I could even get out my wallet, Edward told me he had prepaid everything because he knew how I was about someone else paying. I narrowed my eyes at him, but didn't complain. I wish he didn't have to spend money on me, but it was sweet nonetheless.
"So, want to skate for a while? Our race isn't for another half an hour and then our game is 15 minutes after that." Edward suggested. I was instantly nervous. I was the biggest klutz on the planet. If I could barely walk across a flat and stable surface without falling, how in the world was I supposed to roller skate?
"Don't worry. I won't let you fall" Edward said while looking directly into my eyes. I immediately felt safe and we went to put our skates on. I finished lacing them up and realized that I couldn't skate. I have never roller skated in my life. Klutz remember? Why would I ever subject myself to the kind of pain… or embarrassment for that matter. Edward saw my anxious face and grabbed my hands.
He led me out into the rink and brought me to the railing to hang on to.
"How am I supposed to do this?" I asked him, fear taking over my voice. He chuckled.
"Watch me" he said as he started to skate around the rink. He flowed flawlessly back to me.
"Show off" I muttered. He heard me and rolled his eyes. Why did he have to be perfect at everything?
"Here, all you do is push on your feet. Move them out a little bit every time you step. You can do it Bells. I know you can" He kissed my lips quickly, that made me smile. He pulled my hands so that I was moving out on to the rink. My eyes went wide and I got nervous again. I looked down at my feet then back up at Edward. I was looking directly into his eyes. I don't know how long I was staring at them but when I looked away, we were at the other side of the rink. Strange. You think I would have realized I was moving.
"How did we get here?" I asked stupidly. He started laughing and I narrowed my eyes at him.
"We skated. And no one fell down. You did wonderfully." He said while smiling. Huh, I did do it. I skated halfway around the rink without injuring myself, anyone else, and it didn't take 2 hours to do. I smiled.
We skated around for a while. I was having a ball. Surprisingly I was a very good skater. Although I was looking at Edward a lot of the time, not at my surroundings. If I had, I'm fairly sure that I would have fallen or something by now. Edward held my hand as we skated around the rink. I felt like we were in a movie, you know, the cute date, holding hands while you roller skate? Yeah, totally as amazing as it looks on the big screen.
The next thing I knew, someone knocked into me, right in the middle of Edward and my intertwined hands, causing me to loose my balance. And knock me over. Damn, I was doing so well too!
"Hey!" I yelled as I saw the kid speed past us. He looked back and snickered. He was no kid either, he looked as if he was our age. He winked at me and kept on skating. I almost growled but stopped myself. I sighed and tried to get up. Key work there is try. Getting up didn't exactly work out for me. Have you ever tried getting up from a wood floor with shoes that each had four wheels on them? Yeah, heard it's not the easiest thing for coordinated people? Try being uncoordinated. Not fun. Edward was now at my side, worry having taken over his eyes.
"Bella are you alright? He didn't hurt you did he? Cause if he did I'll go over there myself and make him wish—" I cut him off by putting my finger to his lips.
"I'm fine. The only thing hurt is my success rate. I was doing really well!" I pouted. Edward smiled under my finger. I forgot it was there. I took it back and crossed my arms like a two year old. Edward held out his hand to help me up. After a second of struggling, I was back on my feet. Good mood over.
"Why don't we get our skates off? Our race starts in 10 minutes." I agreed, my feet were starting to hurt in these skates. I successfully got over to the opening of the rink by myself and get my skates off. Edward brought them to the counter and came back. He took my hand and we walked to the go kart door. We would have gone right in if someone hadn't stopped us.
"Where do you think you're going beautiful?" The kid who had knocked me over was standing in front of us. He was a fairly small kid, he had black hair and almost black eyes. He was looking at me with nothing but lust. I noticed next to him was a girl who looked like she could be his twin, they had the same hair and eyes, she was just a tad shorter than he was. She was staring at Edward like he was a piece of meat, it made me sick. He wasn't something you could eat, he was a person, and an amazing person at that.
"Who are you?" Edward snarled. Apparently he didn't like the twins either.
"Oh, well let me introduce myself. I'm Alec, this is my sister Jane."
"Hi" Jane said seductively. I hated saying it, but she succeeded in the seduction department unlike girls from my school.
"We were just wondering why you two were together—"
"and not with one of us" Jane finished. She was eyeing Edward again. I could feel the jealousy rising inside me. I knew that Edward wasn't giving this girl a chance, but the fact that someone actually thought they had a chance with him while he was mine was something I did not tolerate.
"Listen, Bella is mine. Not yours. She never will be. Ever. No matter how much you want it. And listen when I say that she is not someone you just use one night and then leave out to dry the next day. She's someone who you will never in a million years be able to earn a chance with. Someone who you should already see as someone who you could never have, someone intangible. Stop following her and get the hell away from her." Edward growled the last part. I couldn't help but like Jealous-Edward. It was sexy the way he defended me.
"And as for Edward. Stop undressing him with your eyes shortie. You could never deserve Edward even if you knew every detail of his life, even if you were designed specifically for him. I can tell by the way you look at him that you could never in your entire existence be worthy of him. He deserves someone who is nothing like you." I snarled at Jane. She flipped her hair and walked away, towing Alec behind her. I took a deep breath and looked back to Edward. He looked at me with… was that love in his eyes? No it couldn't be… could it?
"Sorry if I sounded a bit possessive back there… I really don't think that you're mine, like a possession is or like something that can't be taken from me, I mean I know what that's like because that's how Tanya was with me and I really didn't want it to sound the way although it probably did—" I silenced him with a kiss. He kissed me back with a bit of passion but there was confusion behind it. He broke the kiss and gave me a confused look. I went on my tiptoes and whispered in his ear,
"I thought it was… sexy… how you put your foot down" my lips were right up against his ear lobe, brushing it ever so slightly, causing his breathing to hitch. I smiled and walked into the room for the go karts.
Edward stood there for a second, dazed. I waved him forward.
"Come on, Edward, the race track won't bite… although I might" I said with a wink. I didn't know where all this confidence came from, maybe it was from Edward saying all those things about me. I didn't know, but I liked it.
EPOV (backing up a little to where Bella kissed him)
Bella silenced me with a kiss, and I happily deepened it a bit. I was confused though. I totally sounded possessive and clingy, how could she not be mad? I basically just told the guy that he couldn't have her cause she was mine. Bella can have whomever she pleases. Why did I think for even a second that because she was with me that meant she didn't want anyone else? I'm so inconsiderate. What Bella did next completely surprised me. She went on her tiptoes and brought her lips to my ear.
"I thought it was… sexy… how you put you foot down" her lips brushed against my ear and my breathing became ragged. Chills ran down my spine and I had to control myself from doing something ungentlemanly. I stood there for a minute trying to compose myself. I blinked a couple times and took a few steady breaths. That's when I heard Bella's voice again.
"Come on, Edward, the race track won't bite…" she called from the doorway, "although I might" she winked. Oh, God. This girl has no idea what she does to me. What did she call me before? Sexy? If I was sexy… I have no idea what she was. A million notches past sexy when she talked to me like that. I tried to keep only thoughts a gentleman would think in my head, but it just wasn't working. Bella was just too damn amazing for her own good. What did I do to deserve this angel?
After I composed myself I joined Bella at the track. We ended up getting two single cars, Bella really wanted to race me. But I was a fast driver. So she would have to watch out.
Bella was next to me in a blue car with the number 27 on the side. My car was green with the number 11 on the side (a/n: that's my favorite number hehe!). We were staring each other down when I saw Bella's teeth push into her plump bottom lip. I loved it when she did that, she looked so damn adorable. Then all of a sudden, she was gone. I looked up and realized that the light had turned green. Cheater.
I sped up, trying to pass her. As much as I wanted her happy and to win, I wanted to beat her. I couldn't help it, I was a little bit competitive. She kept looking behind her to see where I was, which was still a little far behind her. We weren't the only ones on the track, but it felt like it. I swerved in and out of the other racers trying to get up to Bella. She was in the front of the group, in first place. I knew Bella was a good driver so I wasn't surprised. That and there were four twelve year olds in our race.
I was right behind Bella the next time she turned around. Her eyes widened when she saw how close I was and that was the last time she looked behind her. She kept her concentration on winning, I could see it on her face. I chuckled at her cuteness but she didn't hear me. I decided to play with her a little bit. We had to go around the track five times before the race was over. I kept on her tail, but didn't pass her. At the very last turn on the fifth lap, I sped up and passed her right before the end. I stopped the go kart and went over to Bella. Uh-oh, she looked mad.
"Bella…" I said slowly. She looked at me with anger in her eyes. Crap, why did I let my competitiveness get to me? Now Bella was mad at me. She was cute when she was mad… but not when it was at me. Why did I always get myself into trouble? "Please don't be mad…" I stepped back, getting ready for her rage.
"I can't believe it… I definitely didn't expect anything that happened during that race…" Bella said, it sounded like she was working very hard to keep her voice level and calm. Ohhh I am so dead… why was I so stupid!
"I MEAN I THOUGHT I WAS WINNING!" She shouted with a smile on her face. Wait… smile? Now she was laughing. I'm confused.
"Edward… it's okay. I was just getting you back. You see I knew I was going to lose. You drive like a maniac. So I thought that if I distracted you long enough at the beginning it would give me a big enough head start. And I thought it did, but then you passed me at the last second and I couldn't believe I didn't see it. I knew you'd get me back so I decided to get you back for getting me back for getting you… if that made any sense… the point is that I'm not actually mad" she said while wrapping her arms around my neck. I took a deep breath and chuckled. She got me, she got me good. I put my arms around her waist and kissed her lightly on the lips. She smiled at me.
We walked back into the main room where the food counter was. We got some food because I heard Bella's stomach growl right before mine did. We each got a cheeseburger, fries, and a coke. We ate our food quickly and proceeded to the lazer tag room. Luckily, Alec and Jane seemed to have left. In the equipment room, I put my green vest on and then helped Bella into her red one. I couldn't wait to be playing against her. Now that I knew that Bella was just as competitive as I was, I wasn't scared about getting her mad by playing hard core. The announcer's voice came over the speakers signaling that we needed to get to our bases. I gave Bella a quick kiss and proceeded to the green team's base. I had a couple 10 year olds, 14 year olds and a 16 year old on my team. The buzzer signaled the start of the game and I was on the hunt.
Lazer tag was maybe my favorite game in the whole world. I got into it. It was almost as if I was hunting an animal and I let myself to my instincts. Not that I thought about how to kill but, hey its how I played. I ran around, hitting all the red people I could find. I was mainly looking for Bella, but that didn't stop me from defending myself from the little kids! I finally spotted her in a corner, using a mirror to hit people. It was clever, I knew she was smart. I hid behind one of the walls and aimed at her vest. The hit sound went off and she jumped. She turned around frantically looking for who shot her. I was cleverly hiding behind the wall so she couldn't see me. The sounds stopped so I knew it was safe to hit her again. I peaked out from the wall and she was still there, I aimed and hit again. This time Bella knew something was up. I didn't let her see me though. Once the sound stopped for the second time, I wanted to try for one more.
I turned from my hiding spot to hit her again only to find Bella right in front of me. I heard sound go off and realized that I had never hit the trigger on my gun. The sound was coming from my vest.
"Gotcha" Bella said right up in my face. I could feel her breath on my face. Then she turned and ran off. I stood there for a second and then ran after her. I ran over to the red base to try and find her but before I got there, I was ambushed by little kids. Who were on the red team. And were all boys.
"Ahhhh! Get him!" one of the little boys yelled. I was now surrounded by 12 year olds who were shooting me every time my vest reloaded. I couldn't escape and I couldn't shoot any of them because the second that my vest reloaded another one of them would shoot me, rendering me useless. I saw Bella not too far away from me smirking. I narrowed my eyes at her and she threw her head back in laughter. So this was all Bella's idea was it? Why am I not surprised that she could get all the boys on her team to attack me?
I finally just stood there and let the boys have me. It was useless to fight them. There were just so many! They all dispersed and I realized that Bella had called them off. Time for revenge.
I had an amazing revenge plan. I was going to sneak up behind her and then whisper in her ear like she had done to me before, grazing her earlobe. I'd snake my arm around her waist and start kissing her neck. Then she would turn around and I'd shoot her. It was genius.
I spotted Bella and just as I was about to begin my plan, the announcer's voice came on.
"Time is up. Return to the equipment room. Winners… Team Red!" Damn! I groaned and went back to the equipment room. I took my vest off and went to find Bella. She was taking hers off and giving hugs to the little kids on her team. It was so cute. Even the girls who were on her team were all around her, begging for her attention. She was so good with kids, I knew she'd be a great mom someday, hopefully to my children… wait WHAT? Did I just… my children? We… she… I was shaking my head to try and shake that thought off but I couldn't.
I knew our relationship obviously wasn't ready for that but, it was the concept that wouldn't leave my mind. If we had children someday, that would mean that Bella would be my wife. She would be mine forever. I wouldn't ever have to let her go. It was then I realized that I didn't think I could ever let her go. And the reason that when I thought of her being a mother, I wanted them to be my children was because I didn't want her with anyone else. It nearly killed me to think that Bella would be gone from my life. I knew I shouldn't be feeling this so early in the relationship, but I guess my relationship started when my feelings for her began. So having liked her this long, I guess it was safe to have these feelings. At that moment, I knew it, I was so sure of it, I wanted to scream it on top of the world. I'm in love with Bella Swan
BPOV
All my teammates were coming up to me and demanding my attention. They were so cute. I've always loved kids, I wanted to be a mom someday, but maybe like one or two, no more than that. They had helped me win, or at least the boys did. I had told them that Edward was the ultimate enemy in the game, that he shouldn't win. They would have done whatever I asked. I told them to let him go after about 10 minutes of shooting him nonstop. I should give him a chance.
The kids finally stopped nagging me when their parents took them off and I turned around to look for Edward. He was leaning against the wall just staring at me, but there was something in his eyes, I couldn't figure out exactly what it was. He smiled and walked over to me. He wrapped his arms around my waist and I lifted my head so I could see him. He dropped his head down for what I thought was a kiss, but I was wrong. He brought his lips right up against mine, so that if either of us moved the other would feel it, I was about to make it a kiss when he moved his lips to kiss my forehead and then walked around me and towards the door. I turned around and glared. He chuckled.
"Cheater" I muttered. He raised an eyebrow.
"Me? I'm a cheater?" He said to me, walking back towards me now. I sighed, he was right.
"Okay… so maybe not. Lazer tag is kinda… my game." I said in a quiet voice. I looked back at him and he came over to me and scooped me up into a kiss. A real one this time not a fake one. The kiss was deepened as his hands snaked around my waist and pulled me up against his body. My hands immediately were around his neck and in his hair. His lips were urgent against mine, not as if we had little time between us, but as if I was the only thing he wanted, ever. I broke the kiss when I remembered that another game was going to come in and it would be fairly embarrassing if they found us making out.
We walked out of the lazer tag room and played arcade games for a while. Edward got an insane amount of tickets. He went to the prize counter and got me a stuffed bear with a blue bow around his neck. He was adorable. The bear, not Edward. Just kidding! They both were adorable. I named him Little Eddie. Edward didn't exactly approve of the "Eddie" part but too bad for him, it was my bear.
We got back to the dorms around 8:00. We didn't really want to leave each other so we decided to watch a movie back at my dorm. Alice and Rose were going to be with Jasper and Emmett at their dorm so we didn't have to worry about them being there. I got the keys out of my pocket with ease and into the keyhole. We decided to watch Liar Liar with Jim Carrey. I loved that movie, it was funny.
I snuggled closer to Edward and he tightened his arm around me. I loved sitting here like this. I felt so safe and secure when I was with him. I still couldn't believe he was mine. I looked up at him smiling, he looked back, mirroring my smile. He lowered his lips to mine and a shock went through my body. I deepened the kiss with hungry lips and he replied. He swiftly moved me so that I was now lying on top of him, never once breaking the kiss. His hands were in knotted in my hair and my hands were around his neck. His tongue swept across my bottom lip and I gasped and granted him access. Our tongues danced around in perfect synchronization. I moaned in his mouth involuntarily.
He moved his lips from my mouth and I was breathless. His lips never left my skin, he moved from my mouth, trailing kisses down my jaw line and onto my neck. He moved over to the crook of my neck and was lightly sucking on the hollow located there. I sighed in satisfaction and my head moved to the side allowing him more space. He then trailed kisses up the side of my neck and to the space right below my ear. I gasped and my breathing became ragged again. His lips left my skin and I whimpered. He smiled and brought his lips back to mine. I started to slightly suck on his bottom lip and it was his turn to moan. That was by far my new favorite sound. I thought I liked his voice, I thought I liked his laugh, but they were nothing, nothing compared to how much I loved his moan. His hands moved from my hair and to my waist. They went under my shirt and skimmed up and down my sides. It felt incredible. Just then we were interrupted by the door opening and the lights flickering on.
We quickly scrambled to avoid any awkwardness but it was inevitable.
"Oh! Bella I'm sorry!" Alice said while giggling. Jasper was behind her, trying to hide a smile. I sighed.
"It's okay Alice."
"We'll… um just be uh… going" she said as she closed the door. I groaned. Way to ruin a moment Alice. I looked back at Edward and started laughing. His hair was messed up worse than usual and his lips were slightly swollen. He smiled at me and I guessed that I looked just as bad as he did. He wrapped his arms around me and I leaned my head into his chest. I sighed. Then I jumped a little from my cell phone vibrating in my pocket. I leaned away from Edward and opened it to find one new text.
To: Bella
From: Alice
That room was getting steamy! And don't think you won't get out of telling me EXACTLY what happened missy. I want every detail.
I groaned again and turned back to Edward. He was smirking. Any moment that is ruined can be brought back just as easily…
A/N: Yay! So that was their first date… hit or miss? I personally loved Bella skating, because it is hard! And Edward realized that he loves Bella. Ain't that cute?Yeah, so review please! And there will be drama coming up do not fear haha. But I will go into their relationship more before I bring that drama. I don't want to go too fast so I will allow you to savor their relationship ahha. So please review!!
