Chapter 3. Break up and Seduction!
"Mitchell, Look I have something to tell you." I said shaking like you wouldn't believe, but he also wanted to talk to me about some thing, I got him to go first. I listened and in the end it was exactly what I had been thinking about. HE JUST BROKE UP WITH ME! I couldn't believe it, and then he asked what I wanted to talk to him about.
"Well, umm you kind of just told me what I was going to tell you, I didn't think it was fair that I was with you, when im so confused." I explained.
He told me he was still coming to see me, to see if he could change my mind about being confused, I told him that it would be a good idea and that no matter what I wanted to be friends. Ok I know its hard to be friends with your ex but I think when you break up with a mutual feeling its wont be that hard, and I was thankful for that, after that we just sat there talking about every thing, it was different for some reason now that we didn't have pressure on us, it was, well it was nice.
We talked for an hour before we finished it, we said goodbye and hung up. I laid on my bed feeling some what relieved for some reason, it wasn't hard I had been with him for over a year and I thought I should have some emotion about this, well I did I was happy but it wasn't the emotion I thought I should have, maybe I didn't like him as much as I used to, maybe it was just being with the familiar, was the reason we didn't break up before now. I wasn't quite sure what to make of it. In the end I gave up on the thinking about it to much, I came to the conclusion that maybe we were over long before now but neither of us could bring ourselves to break up with each other, what ever the reason was I felt at piece now and I wouldn't be hurting him too much if he wasn't the one I wanted to be with.
Its funny how one small thing, like moving to Forks has made such a huge impact on my life; it was time to get the new chapter of my life. Letting go was what I had to do. I decided that I would make sure my homework was complete before going to sleep, since I wasn't quite tiered yet.
Not long after getting stuck into my home work there was a knock at my door.
"Come in." I said thinking it would be Alice or Emmett, but it was Edward, he has never com to my room, now this was strange. "Oh Hi." I said dumbfounded at him walking into my room. He shut the door behind him and came and sat on my bed, he looked at me for a while and I couldn't help but smile, for the first time I was happy to be around him.
"I just wanted to make sure you where alright, you seemed pretty upset when you stormed off before," He said and then continued, "I would have come up sooner but no one wanted to disturb you they thought you where pretty up set at every one. So I waited until every one went to bed and snuck up here, im pretty sure if Emmett new I was up here with you alone he would loose it worse then he did before." He finished saying, I thought I better say some thing he was being sweet and sincere.
"No im alright, I don't know why I acted that way before every thing was getting to be but im good now, actually im more then good." I explained to him with a smile on my face. He smiled back at me.
"So are you ever going to answer my question about your boyfriend?" he asked. I may as well tell him now, every one would know tomorrow when he came over and we were kissing or touching each other.
"We aren't together any more, we just broke up." I told him.
"Oh really, are you ok?" he asked. I was surprised at his response I didn't expect it but it was nice, but I wasn't sure if it was the real him or not.
"Yea im fine it was a mutual thing, I called him to tell him but he told me the same thing instead, but he is still coming tomorrow he wants to see if he can help me from being confused about what I want." I explained to him, it was nice just to be able to talk.
"What are you confused about?" he asked. It sounded like he really meant it, but how could he not know. Wasn't it obvious that I was started getting feeling for him since I met him?
"Um well if you haven't noticed, I have feelings for you and don't know what I want and felt bad for kissing you while I had a boyfriend." I explained. All it seemed like tonight was that I was explaining every thing to every one.
"Oh," He said with a smile, "Well do you mind if I help you from stop being confused, you see Bella ever since we first kissed I couldn't help but want you more, I've never felt this way for some one before, im sorry that I made you feel confused but I want to be with you, I know im Emmett's best friend but I cant help how I feel. So can help you from stop being confused?" he asked again. I can't believe it he likes me, he wants to be with me, WOW…
"Um, well I guess so." I said. Not knowing how he thought he could help me from being confused.
"Look Bella I really think that we would be truly great together, that's if you open your mind and let me in." I thought about what he had just said and at that moment I decided what to do. I ever so slowly leant in and kissed him, for the first time I was starting the kiss, it was magic, he came closer to me as we sat on my bed, he ever so slowly and gently laid me down and he followed with that motion, his hands travelled from my shoulders down to my waist, one hand went further and cupped around my thigh and pulled it up to him. I couldn't believe I was doing this, I just hope no one decides to visit me in my room. He kept kissing me and he slowly made his way to my neck, I was enjoying this way more then I thought I would. At that moment some one knocked on my door….. OH CRAP... I thought not now…. Edward didn't stop though he kept going.
"Who is it?" I yelled.
"Its Alice you goof, can I come in?" she asked. Edward had still not stopped so I pushed him off me.
"Sorry," I said quietly, "But you have to hide and fast please." In that second he got up and looked around to were to hide, and then he hid in my closest.
"Come in Alice." I called. Alice walked in and looked around then she looked at me and smiled.
"I just want to make sure your ok." She said as she made her way over to me and sat on my bed.
"Yeah, of course I am. Why wouldn't I be?" I asked knowing that it was properly the same question Edward had asked me not long ago.
"Oh just before when you where down stairs, you didn't seem happy that all. I just wanted to make sure you're alright?" she said.
"Yea every thing is fine," I said with a huge smile that I could no longer hide, "Actually every thing is more then fine, its all perfect." I don't know why I couldn't hide how happy I was, I felt free for the first time ever and I had just been making out with Edward so how can every thing not be perfect.
"Ok Bella, what's with you being so upbeat now? You were so confused not long ago, tell me please?" she begged. I thought about how much I should tell her, and since she knew how to keep a secret I decided to tell her every thing. So I explained to her that Mitchell and I had broken up and it was mutual and he was still coming to see me, and I even told her about what she had interrupted. She was so shocked but had a huge smile on her face, she seemed happy for me and I was thankful for that, maybe she could see that I was truly happy for once in a long time.
"So where is he?" She asked in a whisper so Edward couldn't hear her. I laughed and pointed to my closet. She giggled and walked over to the door opened and shut it to make it seem like she had left and then made her way over to my closet, making sure he wouldn't be able to see her when he came out and at that moment Edward then opened the door. As he came out thinking it was clear he looked at me with a smug look on his face I couldn't help but laugh at him, he closed the door and made his way over to me, he hadn't even taken 3 steps when Alice came up behind him.
"BUSTED!" she said trying not to be too loud, the look on his face was pure shock when he heard her, I couldn't help but start laughing and either could Alice, Edward just stood there dumbfounded not knowing what to do. He looked at me and then Alice and then me again. Alice and I just kept laughing at him until he interrupted us.
"HA HA HA," he said, "Use are so funny, was this your plan all along Bella, getting back at me, because its not nice I told you things that I have never told any girl before." He was really upset, not sure if it was because he got caught with me or if he truly thought that, before he could leave I grabbed him and dragged him over to my bed and made him sit. I looked at him seriously and I could tell he truly thought I was just getting him back.
"No Edward im not getting you back at all I promise, and it wasn't a plan it just happened, I didn't even know it was happening until Alice started it. Im so sorry." I said hoping he would believe me, he didn't look totally convinced so I moved closer to him and kissed him again. I totally forgot that Alice was still in the room, until things started going back to were we had left them when Alice walked in.
"Yea thanks guys I think ill be going now, this is too gross for." Alice said. We stopped what we were doing and I looked up at Alice.
"Im sorry Alice, I totally forgot… You can stay if you want to?" I asked her
"No, No its ok, I better get to bed, we have a big day tomorrow." She replied. Then I remembered that Mitchell was coming and I took the hint, before I did something with Edward that I wasn't sure about.
"Oh yea," I said and then turned to look at Edward, "I should be going to sleep to. Sorry." Lucky he understood he gave me another kiss said good night and left before Alice did. Once I was sure he was gone I turned to Alice.
"Thank you, good idea; something might have happened that shouldn't just yet… Ill see you in the morning."
"Yea tell me about it, it was hard to watch. See you in the morning, and Bella get some sleep please." She said as she left my room and closed my door. I lay down in my bed and closed my eyes and slowly drifted to sleep.
When I woke, I woke in a good mood, the mood I went to bed with, I hoped out of bed and almost skipped into the kitchen, and im glad I didn't I forgot every one was here. All but Edward and Alice looked at me like I was losing it.
I looked at Edward and Alice and smiled at them but then the smile disappeared when I suddenly remembered that Mitchell was going to be here after school, I was happy to be seeing him but I was scared, I would have Edward and Mitchell competing for me, well after school I would, but im sure that Edward would start straight away.
Edward made me happy but Mitchell was familiar and to Mitchell it might seem like I was throwing away over a year or a relationship but I wasn't. It's weird and I couldn't grasp the concept of maybe being with someone else, someone like Edward.
"Hey Bella," Emmett called, "Its today that your boyfriend is coming to see you?" I grimaced at that thought; I looked at Emmett and then Edward and Alice.
"Am I missing something?" Emmett asked. I couldn't answer; I knew if I told him that we broke up last night, he would know something was going on between Edward and me. Thankfully Alice came to my rescue.
"They broke up last night Emmett, but Mitchell is still coming, so you still get to meet him, just not as Bella's boyfriend. That's all." Thank god Alice said it, if it came from my mouth I new what he would think.
"Has this got something to do with you CULLEN?" Emmett growled at him, ok maybe not he still thinks that great just great. At that moment Emmett turned to me and then back to Edward.
"So where did you disappear to last night, I came down stairs but you weren't there, I didn't know where you were. You were with Bella in her room ALONE weren't you?" Ok this is getting out of hand I thought.
"Emmett mind your own business ok, it's my life not yours I choose what I do ok." I almost screamed at him.
"I was with them for some of the night." Alice said, trying to stop this from turning into a fight.
"So what did he sleep in your room last night did he Bella?"
"Oh for crying out loud Emmett, NO HE DIDN'T OK I SLEPT IN MY ROOM ALONE GOT IT." I yelled at him.
"Fine Bella, answer me this then, are you still a virgin?" I can't believe he just asked that.
"Emmett you are really getting to me today, YES I am happy ok. Im leaving before you can ask any more questions." I snapped at him as I got up, grabbed my bag and headed for the door. Oh I can't leave Edward here Emmett wont leave him alone. "Edward you coming with me or not?" I asked, Edward got up and left with me without a word and before Emmett could say any thing. It was a quiet drive to school nothing was said, which was I good thing I was still worked up. When we arrived at school I noticed that Edward was staring at me.
"What Edward?" I asked
"Nothing, its just you stuck up for me this morning, I didn't think you would, you don't…" he trailed off not finishing what he was saying. I looked at him puzzled. I looked away for a moment and looked back at him and then he was kissing me with the same passion as always, oh how I wish we were alone right now…
