Two month had passed since Liz moved out to Forks. And she was starting to feel more comfortable. Unexpectedly, Jessica had become a really great friend. In some ways, she reminded her of Maria. Damn, she missed Maria. But Jess made things easier, and her best friend was going to visit this week end for her birthday.

Bella finally decided to date Mike, and she seemed to be happy. Sure she was still looking dreamily at Edward from time to time, but less everyday.

And Liz…well, she tried to avoid the Cullen boy as much as possible. But she couldn't help her curiousity, and sometimes she catched herself studying him, like some science project. She noticed that his eye's color had changed. From black to golden. Maybe he was wearing contact, but he didn't seem the type. Another weird thing was that he was REALLY cold. She accidentally touched his hand in biology, and his skin was cold as death. He tensed at the touch, and didn't look at her for a week. But the strangest thing, and it was not her imagination, is that he was able to hold his breath for a very long time. She noticed it when he, Bella and herself had to work together in Literature.

-That's my favourite girl ! Yelled Jess while locking arms with Liz

-Jeez, you scared me ! Said Liz, while moving her heart to her chest dramatically.

-C'mon, we both know the reason your heart is racing is because of Edward, who is loooking at you AGAIN ! Laughed Jessica

Liz looked at the usual spot of Edward, next to his car.

-Ugh…stalker much ?

-You love it, admit it !

-You know that you're an horrible friend ? You should date him if you like him so much.

-I would, but I don't stand a chance, because the only person who seems to be worth his attention is that skinny bitch from Roswell…oh wait, it's you !

-Did you just call me a bitch ? Laughed Liz. I'm so gonna tell Maria, and she will kick your ass this week end. Say goodbye to your fake ID and to Gomez !

-You're mean, pouted her friend. Well if Maria don't give me my ID, I won't cover up for you.

-You're evil, smile Liz.

As they were about to enter the building, the door opened and was held for them.

Liz turned and see Edward.

« That was fast… »

-Thanks, she muttered.

-You're welcome, he replied with a big smile.

As they made their way to their adjoining lockers, she noticed that he had follow them.

-So I heard that it's your birthday this week end.

-Hum, yeah, she answered, not sure where this was leading, and why he was talking to her in the hallway. Usually he made small talk and smarty comments in class, but that was all.

-I also heard that you were going to a bar at Port angeles…

-What do you want Edward ? She sighted while closing her locker loudly.

-What do you mean ? He asked innocently, with that eternal look of frustration

-Yeah, what do you mean Lizzy ? Said Jessica, smiling wildly

She shot her a death glare and turned back to Edward.

-Well, you know that I'm underage, and you're blackmailing me. So one question, what for ?

-I'm not blackmailing you, laughed Edward. I just wanted to know if my sister Alice and I could come too. She wants to see Gomez for what seems like a lifetime.

He chuckled lightly, like he had made a good joke.

-Yeah, come with us ! Said Jessica. It will be fun.

Liz silently cursed her. Damn Jess and her big mouth !

-Whatever. You can do what you want. I can't forbid you to go to a public place…can I ?

-No, you can't, he smiled.

He seemed so nice and happy that she couldn't help but smile back.

-But my friend already made the fake ID's. I'm not sure that she will be able to…

-Don't worry, Alice and I can look older than we are…

Once again he chuckled.

-We all planned to meet at my place before the show, my parents will be away the whole week end, informed Jessica. But are you going to drink ?

-Hum, no, we don't drink.

« Or eat…another weird Cullen thing »

-Great ! Do you mind to be our driver for the night ? Bella won't drink too but the others will and…

-It's ok Jessica, I will be your driver.

She blushed slightly and Edward smiled at her.

-We better get going, Liz said.

A weird feeling was building inside of her, and she wanted to get rid of it. Which implies getting Jessica away from Edward.

« I'm not jealous. Why would I be ? I don't even like him.I'm NOT jealous »

-Come on Jess, she said, grabbing her by the arm.

She dragged her friend with her but took a look across her shoulder. Edward was looking at them, a smirk acroos his lips.
