Chapter 4. The Arrival of the Familiar.

I was nervous all day about when I get home, that Mitchell would be there waiting for me, but I would also have Edward with me, which seems like a bad idea but he promised he wouldn't be a jerk to him and I believe him. I couldn't concentrate in any class, well it didn't help that I had most my classes with Edward today and he made sure he sat next to me in every one he could, he would also make sure he showed me how much I meant to him every time he had the chance, before class, after class, morning break, lunch after school and in the car on the way home just before we pulled into the drive way. When we arrived at my house, there Mitchell was waiting at the front door for me. Oh what am I going to do? Before I got out of the car I turned to Edward.

"Remember im not your girlfriend yet ok so you can't get too worked up. Promise me you will be nice?" I asked him.

"I promise and I understand, I just want you to be happy." After he had said that we slowly got out of the car. I looked at Mitchell but there was nothing there after being with Edward. I walked up to him.

"Hey Mitchell its great to see you." I said as I gave him a huge hug. He hugged me back.

"It's great to see you to love." He said as he gave me a kiss on my cheek. He looked at Edward and smiled at him, "So is this the guy im loosing you too?"

"Mitchell it's not like that I promise it's hard to explain. We will talk about it later I promise ok. But come inside and let's wait for ever one else to arrive, they can't wait to meet you." I said as I unlocked the door and the three of us walked in.

Nothing was said by any one, it was really weird, and I didn't know if I should say some thing or not. I decided I would I couldn't stand the quiet for much longer.

"So Mitchell what have you been up to since I left?" I asked I really did want to know.

"Umm not much just missing you and wishing I was with you every night like we used to be." He said in a smug voice I new that he basically said that for Edward. I saw him tense up in the corner of my eye that must have got to him. I feel so bad they shouldn't be in the same room together. I heard a car pull into the drive way it must be them.

"Bella, you BIG BROTHER is home." Edward said trying to scare Mitchell obviously, I suppose both these boys would do any thing but I don't understand what the big deal is. Emmett, Rosalie, Alice and Jasper walked through the door; I saw Mitchell tense up that was funny.

"Um Emmett, this is Mitchell." I said, "Oh and Mitchell that's Emmett my brother, his girlfriend Rosalie, Alice and her Boyfriend Jasper, and you know Edward already." This wasn't good Emmett had the look in his eyes like he didn't approve.

"Bella, can I talk to you a minute please, it's about this morning." Emmett asked. Oh great it was the last thing I wanted to talk about. "Yea sure." I got up and followed him into the kitchen. "What's up Emmett?" I asked.

"I just wanted to apologize the way I acted this morning, I had no right accusing you and Edward of sleeping together and whether you did or not its none of my business, so im sorry." He said as he leant in and hugged me. I could hear laughing in the living room, great they heard.

"Emmett could you of said that any louder I didn't want every one well one person to know and now he does. But still its ok and I guess Alice went off at you once Edward and I left this morning didn't she?" I asked. Still annoyed that he said it all loud enough for Mitchell to hear.

"Um yea Alice did, Ha Ha Ha I deserved it though I was out of line."

"Look its ok just drop it please." I asked. After that we went back into the living room I saw Alice trying to be nice to Mitchell which I was thankful of but now he was here I knew what I had to do.

"Mitchell can you please come with me so we can talk?" I asked knowing that he would come with me. Mitchell was only here for one day as far as I know and I hoped, because once I was finished what I was saying I don't think I could face him. We went up to my room, I closed my door and sat on my bed, and he came and sat next to me. He put his hand on my leg and started talking.

"Bella, I know im going to loose you but I Love You more then any thing but I just want you to be happy and if you find that happiness with some one else well that's fine." He said. Oh why oh why did he have to go and say something like that, this makes it so much harder.

"Mitchell," I said preparing my self for what I was going to say next, "I've been doing a lot of thinking, I want to be with you because its familiar but I don't have the same feelings for you as I used to and its not far on any one if we continue this, I was thinking a lot last night after I got off the phone to you." I said but was interrupted by him.

"Yea thinking like sleeping with that other guy, that makes a lot of sense." He growled at me. Oh why does every one think I slept with him...?

"No I didn't sleep with him ok, so just forget about bring it up again ok. And I was really thinking, when we both agreed to break up last night I felt something but it wasn't what I should have been feeling, it wasn't relief or any thing but it wasn't sadness like it should be, I was happy, we talked like we used to and then I came to the conclusion that our relationship was over way before I moved here to forks, but it just took this change to realise it. Im sorry." I said as I stopped looking at him. He didn't say any thing for a while but just sat there like he was absorbing every thing I had just said.

"Bella it's ok, I understand now that you have explained it, your right we haven't talked like that in ages and it was good, and I do want to be friend. But now that we are just friends where am I sleeping tonight as, I guess that guy will be in here with you."

"Ok first of all that guy you keep talking about it Edward and he is Emmett's best friend and second no he wont be in here with me, he wasn't last night and he wont be tonight." I explained so it was clear to him.

After that I showed him where he would be sleeping which was the guest room, not my room, and then we made our way down stairs for dinner. As we came down stairs Edward looked at me, I simply smiled at him and it was like he understood what had happened, Emmett also looked at me I just gave him a look and he didn't look again. We sat down for dinner, after dinner was finished and all packed up every one just sat around not talking nothing, ok this I had enough of this is the second night now.

"Ok enough, can you all just stop being so quiet me cant stand it, this is the second time you have done this and it's really not funny." I growled at them all.

They all started laughing at me, ok that is it I thought I got up and walked away up to my bedroom.

"I swear use all can go jump." I yelled I was so annoyed I didn't understand what was so funny about it well me for that matter. I walked up stairs grabbed some clothes and headed for the shower. As I had a shower, I thought about every thing that had gone on today, and I was quite happy with the outcome, but I didn't know if I wanted to be with Edward yet. Would it be too soon? I wondered what every one would think. Why do I care about what any one else thinks, I never have before so why start now. The shower started getting cold so I got out and put my pyjamas on, I made my way down stairs and they were all laughing again. Surely it can't still be about the same thing, as I continued into the living room I could hear them all telling each other to SHHH... as I was coming. I swear I will snap one of these days. I reached the living room, and they are turned to look at me.

"Have a nice shower Bella?" Emmett asked. Ok that was strange.

"Was it nice and COLD for you Bella?" Edward asked. Oh my gosh they made it go cold that was it, I walked into the kitchen looking for some thing to hit the boys with, a baseball bat, but that will hurt to much, I looked through the draws and found a few wooden spoons. PERFECT easy enough to hide. I walked back in and they were all staring again.

"What is every ones problem seriously you are all starting to get to me." I said.

"Want to play with us Bella?" Emmett asked. No I didn't I wanted hit them all, well Edward and Emmett any way.

"And what would we be playing?" I asked

"TRUTH OR DARE." Alice said. I stared Alice down and she shut up. There was no way in the world I was going to play that game again, last time I did I had to kiss Edward, um on second thought I can get my revenge this way.

"Yea sure why not," I said back, "Can I start?"

"I don't see why not." Edward said. Perfect I new Edward would pick dare.

"Ok then Truth or dare Edward?" knowing the answer.

"Bella do you have to ask, Of course Dare." He said back. Perfect.

"I Dare you to close your eyes Edward, both of them properly." He looked at my with a questioning look and closed his eyes. Every one else looked at me wondering what I was doing, and before any one could warn Edward I took the wooden spoon I hide and smacked it on his head so hard the spoon broke. Every one cracked it laughing.

"OWWW Bella what the hell was that for?" he asked.

"For laughing at me before, oh and the rest of you have it coming as well." I said.

"Oh come on Bella, you know you love me." Edward said with a smug look.

"You can think what you want." I said laughing at him at that moment he grabbed me and pulled me towards him and kissed me on the lips, I pulled back I didn't need Mitchell to have to sit through this.

"Ha Ha Ha Bella, why refuse now, you didn't the other day?" Emmett laughed.

"Just shut up and get on with the game." I said to him. The game went on and no one picked me which I was glad for, but then it came to my turn again.

"Alice truth or Dare?" I asked her, knowing she wouldn't pick dare after what I did to Edward.

"Truth" she said back I laughed and every one looked again.

"Why where use laughing at me before?" I asked her knowing this was the only way I would get the truth out of her.

"Well um you see I don't remember." She said

"Oh Alice you don't take me as an idiot do you, im not accepting that as an answer so spit it?" I demanded.

"Ok ill tell you," She said, "Oh its just thought something had happened between you and Mitchell and when you went off at us for being quiet for the second night after dinner, we just couldn't keep it in any more, sorry its pathetic." She explained and she was right it was pathetic maybe I should have asked who made the water go cold. Oh well to late...

"Um ok then, well after that im going to bed ok, ill see you all in the morning." I said as I got up, Edward looked at me and smiled, I new exactly what he was thinking and I liked that idea as well, then Emmett looked at me and started giggling, and winking at me, that was it. I got my wooden spoon out and smacked Emmett across the head with it and quickly walked of. Again every one was laughing. As I got upstairs I heard Edward say he will be back in a min, ha ha not if I have any thing to do with it. I went into my room and hoped into bed, soon enough Edward came in and lay with me on my bed, and it was nice just to lay there in his arms, not having to worry about any thing but this very moment.

"Bella can I ask you something?" Edward asked.

"Sure thing what's on your mind." I said and I laid there moving my finger up and down his chest, Oh how I wish his shirt was off. Hmmm just the thought drove me wild, before he could ask me any thing I leant up and started kissing him it started out slowly and gently but then it became urgent, it was pure heaven, at that moment I wondered if he was "the one" so to speak, I wanted it more then ever, and I didn't know how much longer I could stop my self before I ripped his clothes off him. All of a sudden he pulled away, I didn't like this.

"Sorry, I got carried away, its just I've never felt this way about any one before." I explained to him. He smiled at me and kissed me gently. I smiled back at him, "So what was it that you wanted to ask me before I interrupted you?" I asked.

"Well since you and Mitchell aren't together does that mean you and me can be umm well together?" He asked sheepishly. Didn't he already know the answer I thought, im sure he should of figured that I wanted to be with him more then any thing, I wanted him more then any thing in the world, I couldn't believe the way I felt about him after such a short time of knowing him, maybe we were meant to be, im sure he is the one I want to be with for the rest of my life.

"We can be if that's what you would like." I said back to him with a huge smile hoping ever so much that he did want that, but I still couldn't wonder why he wanted me, he could have any one but he didn't want any one he wanted me. He looked at me, and stared deep into my eyes at that moment I knew that he wanted me as his on only his, I couldn't be happier, I was with the hottest guy in forks, me Bella Swan, now that's something I never thought would happen, but I suppose unbelievable things can happen to any one, I was just lucky I guess. Edward kept smiling at me, I couldn't help but smile back, I never wanted this moment to go away, I was truly happy, and I was never this happy not even with Mitchell, I couldn't help but feel sorry for him, but I couldn't be with some one I wasn't in love with. Was that it was I in love with Edward Cullen? I kept looking at his wondering if this was love or not, but I couldn't be sure of it but I new that I didn't want to be away from him ever.

"Of course that's what I want Bella, I've never wanted any one more then I want you right now?" he said. Right now, what was that meant to mean, did he only want me for one reason? I didn't like his choice of words they scared me; maybe this was too good to be true.

"What's that meant to mean?" I asked

"Bella I want you forever, I've never felt this way before I don't think I could feel this way about any one ever again." He said confused. I wondered if he really meant it or not, but ill guess I will never no will I, people lie and I hoped he would never lie to me but still I couldn't help but wonder if this all was too good to be true. I leant up and started kissing him, it's filled with passion and urgency, and I wondered if I wanted him in a way that I've never wanted any one before? Was it too soon to want him this way? None of that mattered at the moment I wanted him more then ever, I felt his arms twist feverously around my waist and his breath was ragged against my neck. Shivers of pleasure shot down my spine.

My right hand now moved from his cheek to the back of his neck. My fingers knotted his hair, pulling him closer to me. I moved his hand, to my back, placing his hand there and moved my own to his neck. This made it easier to move myself even closer to him. He pulled me even closer than I had already been to him and let out a small groan. I pulled away, in need of air but his lips never left my body. He kissed my cheek, continued down along my throat and across my collarbone. I could not hold back a soft moan of pleasure. It occurred to me that maybe I was ready to do this, maybe he is the one. My hands moved to unbutton his shirt; this time he did not stop me for he had gone to removing my own, leaving me in a black tank top and jeans. My anticipation continued to grow. Is this really want I wanted, did I want to give it up to him, I pulled Edward's lips back to mine, my heart began to quicken its rhythm. My hands slowly moved down his bare, muscular chest and found the zipper to his jeans. I was happy Edward was not stopping me though as I went to unzip them, then I heard a voice which came from downstairs; it caught me off guard.
"Will you two keep it down up there!?" It was Emmett! I groaned angrily at his interruption. How in the world could he hear us, we weren't even doing any thing, at that moment I thought that this isn't the time or place for this, I slowly pushed him off, I looked at his as he looked confused, I felt so bad, I had given his the impression that I wanted him but I couldn't do it, well not right now.

"Im sorry." I said apologetically.

"Bella, im sorry to ask this, and I know if we had gone further it would have been your first time but was I imagining the fact that you wanted to, as it seemed like you did and now…." He trailed off. I feel so bad how I was meant to explain every thing I was just feeling towards him and then also explain why now wasn't the right time.

"Edward you weren't imagining any thing, I do what you more then you would believe but right here right now isn't right im sorry." I couldn't help but feel bad how any one could do this to someone; how I could do this to Edward I didn't know. He looked at me like he understood what I was saying, I was thankful for that but I felt guilty beyond anything, words wouldn't be able to describe how bad I feel. We lay there staring into each others eyes; I couldn't help but wonder what tomorrow would bring.
