Disclaimer: I don't own twilight (weeps) or Edward (sobs)
Thanks for Reviewing, as always I really appreciate it. I loved how many people were super mad at Mike
This is Bella's POV of directly where we left off, and then Edwards later on

Bella's POV

And then Edward strode right past me, anger still evident on his face. He must be so mad he can't even face me and had go away and clam down. But then he came right back, dragging Mike behind him. He threw Mike down to the ground and started yelling,

"How dare you Mike, I thought we were friends, but then you kiss my girlfriend behind my back and without her permission. You cheat on your girlfriend, who by the way I helped set you up with, right in front of her. Mike you are a sorry excuse for a person."

By the time Edward's rant was finished Mike had stood up, but he didn't look sorry at all,

"Bella wanted me to kiss her, its not my fault Bella's a slut" I gasped, Mike had just gone way too far, and clearly Edward thought so too because he swung his fist and punched Mike square in the jaw, and it must have been a hard punch because Mike was knocked unconscious. Edward crouched by Mike's unconscious body and growled

"Now we've proven you're a cheater, backstabber, a jerk and a liar." He stood up and walked over to me.

"Are you okay Bella" he asked concerned.

"Yeah, now" I replied still mad at Mike, "but how did you know I wasn't cheating on you? I mean you only walked in after I'd given up on trying to push him off."

"Bella darling, you were completely non responsive, Mike looked like he was making out with a plank of wood, it was pretty clear you didn't want to be there, besides you're my girlfriend and I trust you" I smiled shyly, pleased with his answer. I sighed relieved that the drama was over. Or at least I had thought it was, Jessica was storming towards me, I had thought she was just mad at Mike but clearly not.

"BELLA I CANT BELIEVE YOU" she screamed, I was shocked and clearly it showed,

"Oh please, don't look so surprised and innocent, first you get with Edward even though he was such a jerk to me and then you seduce my boyfriend." She's in shock, her boyfriend just cheated on her, she's in shock, her boyfriend just cheated on her I repeated to my self in an effort to calm my self down, I couldn't believe Jessica was angry at me for Mikes behavior and that she was still mad about the whole Edward thing.

"Jessica really, I am in no way responsible for Mike's actions and I would never flirt with or 'seduce' your boyfriend" I answered calmly.

"Whatever" said Jessica, "I guess Lauren was right about you" now I was really angry

"Lauren was right about me? What exactly was Lauren right about?"

"You're just a self serving man-eater" I think my mouth actually fell open, I was shocked and angry, humiliated and upset, I couldn't believe people actually thought I was like that, I felt a tear roll down my cheek. Alice stepped towards Jessica,

"Jessica, I know you're really upset right now but I think you know what you said about Bella is not true, and you should apologize to her."

"No" said Jessica, daring anyone to oppose her, and I could tell that people were about to do just that when Mike came to and started to cry, yes cry. He ran out of the gym, still a little shaky and a minute later came back in with the principal, who was the dances chaperone. He had gone out for a cigarette (A/N I hate smoking so don't think I'm endorsing it) and boy had he missed a lot.

"SWAN, CULLEN, MY OFFICE NOW, YOU HAVE A LOT OF EXPLAINING TO DO."

In the end, I got off without punishment while Edward was given a weeks detention for punching Mike, he also had to get his parents to sign a note saying they understood what their son had done. To my delight Mike was given a few detentions for 'manhandling students'.

My the time it was all over I was more than ready to go home, even though the dance wasn't nearly over. So Edward and I left Alice, Jasper, Rosalie and Emmett and drove to his place, where we would all be staying the night. Edward rang the doorbell and it was a while before Esme answered it, surprised,

"Hello Bella, Edward, you're home early" Edward nodded,

"Well, while I was getting more ice for the drinks Mike grabbed Bella and kissed her, even though she didn't want him to. I saw and yelled at him, he then called Bella a slut so I punched Mike, knocking him unconscious." Esme looked shocked, but not really mad and gestured for Edward to continue, "and then Jessica, Mike's girlfriend started yelling at Bella and said some awful things to her, meanwhile Mike wakes up and talks to the principal who gave me a weeks worth of detentions for punching him"

"Oh Bella, you poor thing!" exclaimed Esme, pulling me into a tight hug, I was a little surprised, but returned the hug willingly, she turned to Edward, "Edward normally I'd be angry because me and your father didn't raise you to be violent, but I completely understand why you would react like that, however, if next time you could try not to actually render him unconscious I would appreciate it."

"I'll give it my best shot" Edward said, giving Esme the note.

Edward and I had at least an hour before the others arrived so we decided to tidy the lounge room, and arrange the mattresses. Before we did any of that there was something I need to do,

"Edward I need to borrow a toothbrush"

"Why?"

"Well Alice isn't bringing my stuff until later, so I don't have a toothbrush with me" I explained

"No, why do you need a toothbrush at all?" Edward clarified.

"Edward, the last thing I've had in my mouth is Mike Newton's tongue, and I really would like to wash it out"

"Oh sure, here, we always keep a spare" he said, foraging for a toothbrush in his bathroom cupboards. He pulled one out, ripped the packaging off and handed it to me. I squeezed some toothpaste on, and started brushing furiously.

I brushed my entire mouth so vigorously my gums were sore. I eventually stopped brushing, and rinsed my mouth out. I finally felt clean and un-violated, and all I could taste was mint, instead of essence of Mike.

"Feeling better babe?" asked Edward, coming from behind me and wrapping his arms around my waist, burying his head in my neck. I twisted and kissed his cheek,

"Much better"

"Mmm, I'm glad, now lets start organizing the lounge room"

"Aye, aye Captain" I saluted. So we set about dragging five mattresses into Edwards lounge room, Alice was small enough to sleep on the couch. We put the sheets on and decided we were done.

"You know, we still have a while before the others get here." announced Edward, glancing at his watch. I nodded and he continued, "So what do you want to do?"

"I don't know, what do you want to do?" I asked back

"I don't know, what do you want to do?" he repeated

"I don't know, what do you want to do?" I asked once again. I think Edward realized that I would happily continue this game for a while, so he actually answered my question,

"Hmm, Bella, are you by any chance ticklish?" he asked. I froze, I was in fact extremely ticklish, it was one of my many vices. Edward saw the horrified expression on my face and grabbed me and started to tickle me.

I screamed and kicked, tears of laughter pouring down my face. I tried to tickle him back but to avail, it seemed that Edward did not share my vice, I'm ashamed to admit I even tried biting Edward, but he just laughed at me. "I can see I'm going to have to use my master technique, perfected over many years" he growled, flipping me on my back so I was lying flat on a mattress, panting for air. Edward then straddled my waist so I couldn't kick him, and grabbed my hands, pulling them above my head, rendering me completely at his mercy.

He then proceeded to tickle me, and I laughed so hard, my chest was hurting. I was actually in pain. Edward was now also crying with laughter, not because I was tickling him, but because I was apparently that funny.

Luckily for me, when Edward started to laugh he loosened his hold on me. I took this opportunity to fight back, and I gathered all my strength and rolled over so that I was now straddling Edward. I wasn't even going to try to tickle him, clearly he wasn't affected by that, so instead I started to yell at him,

"EDWARD CULLEN, THAT IS ABUSE, ABUSE I TELL YOU" I screamed hysterically. Edward wasn't the least bit frightened, and laughed even harder at me, before rolling over again, so that we were back to our original positions.

"Your right, sorry."

"You should be sorry Edward Anthony Cullen." I pouted

"You're so cute when you're mad." he said, bending down and kissing me lightly,

"I haven't forgiven you yet." I said stubbornly. He kissed me again, a little more passionately.

"How about now?" he asked. I shook my head, not trusting my voice to answer, I had a feeling that if I opened my mouth I would end up sighing his name, and that really wouldn't help my cause at all. He smiled, no doubt knowing what was going through my mind and kissed me again, "now?" he asked softly. I just nodded and wrapped my arms around his neck, kissing him hard for a second before pulling away,

"Now" I agreed. He leaned in again and we kissed in earnest, and after awhile he slipped his tongue in my mouth, gently, and I marveled at how much better he was at this than Mike. We kissed like that for a while, occasionally rolling around, when the weight of the other person got too much. We didn't go any further than kissing of course but it was still so passionate that I could think of nothing but Edward, felt nothing but him, I had even forgotten my own name.

That was why I was so surprised to hear throats clearing at the doorway. I jumped up, and off Edward, and looked up seeing Alice, Jasper, Rosalie and Emmett standing there and looking very unimpressed. I blushed a scarlet so deep it was possibly a previously an undiscovered colour of red. "Oh my god" I groaned.

"Are we interrupting something, cause we can come back later?" asked Alice grinning.

"Nice one Eddie!" exclaimed Emmett, leaning over to give Edward, who had sat up, a high five. Edward threw a pillow at Emmett's head and Rosalie hit him on the arm.

"Come in guys, we were just getting…set up" said Edward sheepishly.

"And then you decided to celebrate by undoing all your hard work?" asked Rosalie. I gave the room a quick scan, Rosalie was right. The room looked like it had been hit by a tornado, the pillows and sheets were everywhere and in our excitement we had accidentally knocked over a lamp, it didn't break but somehow the lampshade had ended up in the middle of the room.

"Oops" I said, still blushing furiously. Edward and I started cleaning up, and the others all got comfortable. We microwaved some popcorn and picked out a few movies.

Alice was sitting in Jaspers lap on one of the mattresses and Rosalie and Emmett were lying next to each other on another. Edward and I were curled up on the couch, his arms firmly around me. The girls had each picked out two movies and the boys picked out two as well, a quick game of scissors, paper, rock established that we would be watching the boys chosen movies first. They had chosen Napoleon Dynamite, which I was fine with but their second movie; Van Helsing had me worried.

Normally I'm in hysterics by the time Kip goes to fighting lessons, but for me, every second of Napoleon Dynamite that went by was a second closer to Van Helsing. I had seen it before in Phoenix and I had had nightmares for ages, I know most people didn't find it that terrifying, but the image of a vampire sucking at my neck had been stuck in my head for weeks.

Too soon Napoleon had danced to Canned Heat, Kip had been married and the movie was over. Emmett got up to put Van Helsing in the DVD player, and I crushed myself even closer to Edward.

"What's the matter Bella?" Edward whispered in my ear as I screamed once again, "its not that scary"

"Yes it is, I don't know, vampires really freak me out" I said, telling the absolute truth, "Every movie I've seen, or book I've read about vampires has given me nightmares."

"What would you do if I was a vampire?" asked Edward, smiling.

"That's a stupid question Edward"

"What would you do?"

"I don't know, the real question is what would you do? And the answer is drink my blood, so I think I would steer clear of you if you were a vampire"

"If I was a vampire, I would never drink your blood" he vowed. I hit him with a pillow.

"Stop being so stupid, and comfort your terrified girlfriend" I hissed, trying not to disturb the others.

"Yes Miss" said Edward. I was about to hit him again for being rude, but he obeyed my orders, pulling me closer, and covering my eyes during the scary bits.

After what felt like forever the movie was finally over, and we got to watch the girls' choices, it was now just on midnight and I had had a long day so I was exhausted. I tried to stay awake and watch Mean Girls but my eyes kept closing.

I woke up confused, where was I? I lifted my head up slightly and looked around, I was still in Edwards lounge room, and still on the couch, Alice, Rosalie, Emmett and Jasper were no where to be seen. I was just starting to wonder where Edward was when I felt his arms tighten around me. Oh. He must have fallen asleep too. I turned slowly, trying not to wake him up. Edward was still asleep and he looked so peaceful, his copper hair in disarray and even messier than usual. I just stared at him for a while, and he started to stir. His eyes fluttered open and he groaned, saw me and smiled, he then spoke, for once with a rough voice, rather than the usual velvet.

"Good morning beautiful"

"Did you sleep well?" I asked

"Not really"

"Oh sorry sweetie, why?"

"Well actually you kind of kept me up" Edward admitted. What, I can't believe that

"What, I didn't think I snored" I said.

"You don't" he said, smirking before he continued, "You sleep talk". NO, NO, NO, I can't believe I still do that.

"No" I groaned, "What did I say?"

"You really don't want to know"

"Yes, yes I do" I insisted

"Well you said something about 'vampires never getting to bite your neck'". Phew, that's so much better than I thought it would be.

"That's not so bad"

"I'm not done." Oh.

"What else did I say?"

"I guess it wasn't that bad, you just said my name a few times" Edward admitted. Oh my gosh, that's sooo embarrassing! I blushed bright red, and Edward smiled, "don't be embarrassed Bella, I talk about you all the time when I'm awake, there's nothing wrong with you doing it in your sleep." Yeah right. I rolled off the couch, grabbed my clothes out of my bag and stumbled to the bathroom,

"I'm just going to get changed". Edward stood up as well,

"Me too, I'll see you downstairs" he said, heading off in the direction of his room.

I pulled on my jeans and a t-shirt and headed downstairs. I walked in to the kitchen to find everyone already tucking in to breakfast.

"Good morning Bella" greeted Esme

"Did you sleep well Bella?" asked Emmett; I could tell by the innocent tone in his voice that he had heard me sleep talk.

"I slept fine Emmett" I replied suspiciously

"I think you slept better than fine" said Emmett before going on to mock me "oh Edward, save me from the vampires" I blushed and he grinned an evil grin and started to ridicule me again, "Oh Edward, you saved me, what ever can I do to repay you?" I blushed even harder and everyone started laughing.

Esme and Carlisle clearly had no idea what everyone was talking about so Rosalie explained,

"Bella here" she gestured towards me as I poured some cereal, "sleep talks, and last night gave us some very interesting insights into her relationship with Edward". Still tomato red, I took my cereal and sat down at the table, trying to retain as much dignity as possible.

Edwards POV(A/N this is from when they wake up)

I woke up disorientated, why wasn't I in my bed? I opened my eyes and remembered exactly were I was, the couch, with Bella in my arms. Everyone else had woken up and gone to breakfast before us, so it was just the two of us. I tightened my arm around Bella, and felt her jump a little; clearly she was also a little confused. I shut my eyes again and felt her turn in my arms. Bella was quiet for a while so I assumed she had gone back to sleep. I opened my eyes slowly and found my self face to face with an Angel. Bella's chocolate eyes staring into mine. "Good morning beautiful" I said, meaning every word. Even though she had just woken up, and hadn't even brushed her hair, to me she was still the epitomy of beauty.

"Did you sleep well?" she asked. I contemplated her question, it turns out Bella sleep talks, and so I was kept up for most of the night, but that's not to say it wasn't the best night of my life. Hearing Bella say my name so often, to know that I was so deeply in her sub-conscious that she dreamt of me, well I would trade weeks of sleep for that. I decided to answer the question honestly, and possibly embarrass her about the sleep-talking thing. I know it's a mean thing to do to your girlfriend but oh well.

"Not really" I replied.

"Oh sorry sweetie, why?" asked Bella, clearly concerned

"Well actually you kind of kept me up" I admitted. Bella instantly looked mortified and embarrassed.

"What, I didn't think I snored" she said.

"You don't" I said, permitting myself a little smirk before I continued, "You sleep talk". Poor Bella looked horrified and worried

"No" she groaned, "What did I say?" I really don't think Bella wants to hear that she moaned my name,

"You really don't want to know"

"Yes, yes I do" she insisted

"Well you said something about 'vampires never getting to bite your neck'" I said, it was one of the less embarrassing things she had said, and really wasn't that bad at all, clearly Bella thought so too.

"That's not so bad"

"I'm not done." Ooh, I am mean.

"What else did I say?"

"I guess it wasn't that bad, you just said my name a few times" I said, leaving out certain details. Bella flushed bright red and I felt sorry for her so I gave her a smile and said "don't be embarrassed Bella, I talk about you all the time when I'm awake, there's nothing wrong with you doing it in your sleep." I had said that for Bella's benefit but it was 100 true. Bella however didn't look convinced. She rolled off the couch and grabbed her clothes out of her overnight bag, she stumbled-literally- to the bathroom saying

"I'm just going to get changed". I figured this was a good idea; everyone was probably waiting for us anyway. So I too climbed off the couch

"Me too, I'll see you downstairs" I said, heading to my room. I grabbed some clothes out of my cupboard and thought about Bella as I got changed. I couldn't believe that it had been less than two weeks that I'd been dating her. It felt like I'd known her forever, and I couldn't imagine a life without Bella. She might be stubborn and a little tenacious but she was also smart and funny, and beautiful and always managed to surprise me, she was different to all the other girls I know. She was Bella Swan, my girlfriend.

I hoped you liked Edwards reaction to Mike, I know I did!
