A/N: Lot's of you have been asking about the emails Edward has been sending, so I'm going to clear up a few things without hopefully giving away too much:
- Edward is actually sending these emails, no one is stopping them
- As of yet, it seems Bella hasn't received them
- Finally, some people have asked if Bella will ever see them, and the answer is ? What do you think? :P
Bella:
3rd September 2006
First day back at school. Yay. I'm not at all sarcastic. Not. One. Bit.
Since mine and Edward's second kiss, I haven't spoken to him. And I haven't told anyone about it, either. Because that would mean that I would have to admit that I'm attracted to him, and, if given the choice, would spend every day kissing him.
I'm not sure why this second kiss was different, and why it made me feel different, but it definitely did. Right now, I'm sitting in the car park, waiting for Angela to arrive. Since she no longer needs a car (because she's a werewolf) she runs everywhere, so she has to walk the last bit to school so that it doesn't look suspicious.
"Hey Bella!" Angela says while tapping on the car window, scaring the shit out of me.
"Oh my god! Don't sneak up on me!" I say as I get out of my car. She just laughs in response, as we walk to our first lesson. We got sent our lesson schedules in the holidays, and mine is the exact same as it was before. Which means I still have to endure biology with Edward.
The day just feels like any other school day. Passing by extremely slowly, me and Angela are both relieved when it's finally lunch time and we can enjoy our sanctuary that is the library.
"What's on your mind, Bella?" Angela asked once we sat down. I felt bad about not telling her anything about Edward, so I just decided to open up to her. I told her everything about Edward coming to my house, kissing me, and me realising I liked Edward…in that way.
"Oh my god. Well, I didn't see that coming…" Angela said, in shock, I think. I gave her a few minutes before I spoke again.
"Don't tell anyone this, especially not him." I said, knowing she would know full well who 'him' meant.
"Do you seriously think I would tell anyone?" Angela asked with mock hurt. The bell went, and my stomach did a weird flip. Yay! I will see Edward. No! I will see Edward.
This is going to be a long hour.
"Nerdella, enjoy your trip?" Edward asked once I walked in the classroom and very nearly fell over. I felt my cheeks heat up, and so I ducked my head to cover it up.
"Least I didn't fall." I muttered, more to myself than anyone else. I sat down in my seat, and looked around the classroom. There were a few other people, but no sign of the teacher yet.
"You have a pretty strong slap." Edward commented, making my blush deepen. He wasn't really going to bring this up, was he? In the middle of the classroom? No, he wouldn't. Would he?
"Thanks?" I asked, because, was that a compliment, or an insult.
"It's a compliment, although, not to my face. You have serious anger issues." Edward commented casually, like he was talking about the weather.
"Yeah? And you have some sort of multiple personality disorder." I snapped, getting, well, angry.
"What do you mean by that?" Edward asked curiously.
"One minute you hate me, and the next, you're friendly…and then…well, you know." I said, not wanting to say out loud about him kissing me.
"No, I don't know." Edward said quietly.
"You are…overly friendly." I told him, and he laughed lightly. It was such a beautiful sound.
"Overly friendly, nice way to put it." Edward said, and then the teacher began droning on about biology, so I tuned out because it was so unbelievably boring. Like always.
Edward didn't make any attempts to speak to me for the rest of the lesson, which I assumed was because he regretted kissing me. He was probably going to ask me to not tell anyone about the kiss we shared. If he didn't, I'm sure it would hurt me, because it would be him admitting that he didn't want to be with me, and that I embarrassed him.
Gym was next lesson, and as soon as the bell went I rushed from biology so that Edward wouldn't have chance to talk to me. I didn't chance looking over my shoulder at him, because I knew I would just run back to him.
"BELLA! WAIT!" Edward shouted after me. I pretended I didn't ignore him. I picked up my pace so that I could get to gym faster, and not have to listen to what Edward was about to say, which would break my heart. This was a first, I actually wanted to get to gym quickly.
"Bella, I know you heard me, otherwise why else would you pick up your pace? I know how much you hate gym. Please, I just want to speak to you." Edward said as he caught up to me.
"Well I don't want to hear what you are going to say to me." I said, with a lot more emotion than I wanted in my voice. I could feel the tears building in my eyes, but I willed for them to stay hidden.
"What is it you don't want to hear me say?" Edward asked me calmly.
"That…That you r-regret k-kissing me." I stuttered out. Edward looked completely confused at my honesty, and I wouldn't have been surprised if he had run a mile from me.
"Why would you think that? You were the one who slammed the door and was cr-" Edward said, quickly stopping himself from saying more. Did he hear me crying? He couldn't have.
"And what?" I asked.
"And was crying in your bedroom." Edward finished, not looking at my face.
"You heard that?" I asked, not knowing what else to say.
"Yeah, so it's clear you weren't happy I kissed you." Edward said, finally looking up at me. I saw the hurt in his eyes, which made new tears build up in my own eyes.
"That's not why I was crying, I wasn't unhappy that you kissed me." I admitted, and now it was my turn to look down.
"Then why were you crying?" Edward asked, and I realised there was no way for me to answer without telling him how much I liked him. Damn…
"Because I knew you would never kiss me like that again, and that…y-you don't wa-want me like that." I admitted to him as tears flowed freely from my eyes. I still hadn't looked up into his face, scared of what I might see.
"Bella, look at me." Edward commanded, but I still looked down. Then, he tilted my chin up, forcing me to look into his eyes. He very slowed leant down to my face, and kissed me very softly and sweetly.
"Don't cry." Edward said once he pulled back from my lips. I was too much in shock to say anything, so I just nodded dumbly. Edward smiled happily at me.
"We should get going to our lessons now." Edward told me. Then, I walked happily to gym, for the first time ever.
Edward was actually sweet to me.
A/N: Awww... Is this their happily ever after? Remember the first chapter... :D
Review please! :D
