A/N: Another chapter for you! Again, thanks for every single amazing review :D


Bella:

3rd May 2006

I had told Angela everything about my mother returning, and then quickly departing. She agreed with me that my mother was the one in the wrong.

Things with Edward had gone back to how they always had been. He would be incredibly harsh to me, and I would respond with the wittiest thing I could think of. I don't know if this was a good or a bad thing. I mean, nice Edward was weird, because I didn't know why he was being nice, or if he was just doing it to be mean. But mean Jerkward was predictable, and by now, I'd got him pretty much worked out. Also, shouting and screaming at Edward was a good way to get out all my anger, without feeling bad afterwards.

Unfortunately today Angela was ill, so I was pretty much alone. I didn't really mind that, but Edward seemed positively ecstatic that I was all alone. He had been saying stuff all day, whenever he had the opportunity to.

Right now I was hiding, yes, I'll admit it, I was actually getting fed up of Edward, so I had resorted to hiding, away in the library, and I kept hoping he wouldn't come here to torment me. Again though, luck wasn't on my side today. Actually, luck was never on my side. Ever.

"Nerdella, lost all of your nerd club?" Edward asked as he walked over to me.

"Yes, please would you join me?" I asked sarcastically.

"Of course I would, Nerdella." Edward said as he sat down next to me.

"You do realise I was being sarcastic, right, Jerkward?" I asked sceptically.

"Yes, of course, but you still asked me." Edward said.

"Good, just making sure you weren't completely stupid." I told him.

"So, what do we do in nerd club?" Edward asked after he had sat in silence for all of a second.

"Well, new members have to jump out of the window. It's like a ritual, really." I said, almost laughing when at first he thought I was being serious. Talk about gullible.

"Ha, ha, very funny. So are you saying you want me to jump out the window?" Edward asked seriously.

"Yes." I answered, trying hard to keep a straight face.

"Seriously? You actually want me gone? Like, properly." Edward asked seriously, sounding a bit sad.

"Why the sudden emotion, Masen?" I asked, insanely curious. He had acted like this around me.

"Because, I wouldn't want you properly gone, you know." Edward admitted.

"Why? Because then you'd have no one to make fun of?" I asked, albeit a bit snidely.

"No! God, no! I mean, I know I make your life a misery, but I don't mean to. I just…" Edward started, but I cut him off.

"You don't mean to make my life a misery? How can you accidentally call someone names? You can't, that's how!" I shouted at him. This time, the first ever time though, Edward flinched back. Like I'd really hurt him. I mean, whenever he said something that hurt me, I would flinch.

"I don't know how it happens, it just does! I never set out to make you hate me! I mean, I don't…I don't hate you." Edward admitted.

"You don't hate me! Really? Then why are you such an idiot to me? Why, Edward?" I asked, beginning to walk towards the door. Edward saw what I was doing, and began to move towards me.

"After that first meeting, you hated me. It was clear by the look of disgust on your face. And I didn't want you to hate me. And then I hated myself for making me hate you. I then I took that hatred of myself out on you, because I thought I couldn't do any more damage, seeing as you already hated me. But then, everyone started hating you. I still don't know how that happened, but all the girls say you are just 'flirting' with me, and all the boys think you're a 'slut' for so publically 'flirting' with me. But, I don't agree with them, but it's too late to stop them!" Edward said in a big long speech, most of which I didn't understand. What it sounded to me was that he was trying to make it sound that he was nice, and was one of the nice guys, who didn't hate me.

"Most of that, I didn't understand. And the parts I did didn't make any sense." I told Edward, who shocked me by laughing. I'd never heard him laugh properly, and it was really beautiful. I mean, seriously, it was probably the most beautiful thing about him. Aside from his eyes. And hair. And face. And- FOCUS!

"Bella, that doesn't make any sense." Edward said, moving closer. My head was screaming at me to get out of there, so I did just that. I moved over to the door again, and just opened it when Edward's hand reached over and shut it. His other hand went next to the other side of my head, trapping me between him and the door.

I gasped at the closeness of our bodies, but Edward didn't move.

"Edward, I-" I started, but I was cut off by his lips crashing down on mine. I was too shocked to respond at first, but then, when I realised what was happening, I kissed him back. His hands moved from the wall beside my head to resting against my cheeks, cupping my face. My hands moved into his hair, holding his face to mine.

I didn't know if I was kissing properly, I mean, this was my first proper kiss. My first proper kiss, and it was going to Edward. Edward, the guy who made my life hell, and somehow made everyone in school hate me. Edward, the amazingly attractive and most popular guy in high school. I don't know whether or not I'm angry at Edward for this.

No, you should be angry, my subconscious was shouting to me. You hate him, all that stuff he said before was just lies to get you to kiss him. I kept thinking these things, while still kissing him. I saw how he kissed Jessica, and knew instantly he was using me. Why? Why me? Why would he use the girl he hates? Probably the same reasons as Phil. Oh my god, did I attract these types of men, who like to use women. Was that Edward's plan for me?

I don't have time for all these questions, when what I need to be doing is stopping kissing Edward. Sometime during the kiss our tongues had got mixed up, so I hastily removed my tongue from his. With the hands that were in his hair (which was amazingly soft, in case you were wondering) I pulled his head away from mine. He looked momentarily confused; maybe he didn't expect me to work out his plan so soon.

"STAY AWAY FROM ME!" I screamed at him, tears running down my cheeks.

I didn't look back at him, I just ran.
