THE START OF SOMETHING NEW
Chapter 3
BPOV
Edward was driving really fast I had to grip tightly onto the seat, to calm myself. I could see in the corner of my eye Edward trying to stifle back his laughter, but it was no use he just burst out laughing. I didn't find it funny at all, why did he find it so amusing? "Why is that so funny?" I said clenching my teeth. "It's not funny, it's just the face you were making that's all" he replied "oh so you think my face is funny is it, well then... Then, oh shut up". I was silent for the rest of the ride; when we arrived at my house, I took my seat belt off and as I was going to open the door... Edward grabs my wrist. "Bella" he said " I wasn't trying to make fun of how you look, its just that the face you made was adorable" what!! Edward thinks I look adorable OMG "well actually your beautiful to me" whoa whoa whoa wait a minute come again, did he just say I was beautiful? I flushed my normal crimson red "uu-um thanks" I managed to blurt out "Bella" he said in his velvety voice "I was wondering if tomorrow night, after work we could go to dinner? If that's ok with you, it won't be date or anything but if you do want it to be a date then that's ok with me". Did I just hear what I heard "ye-yeah, no I don't mind at all, uu-um you can pick me up at 8pm if you like" whoa now this is getting really weird, "yeah ok, It's a date then, see you tomorrow" he continued. As I got out of the car, Edward said good night and as he drove off he waved goodbye.
It's 10.30 and Alice still hasn't brought my car back, what if she was in an accident, no please don't let it be an accident. I took my phone out and dialed her number panic stricken, the phone rang three times and Alice's voice answered "hello Bella, um sorry can I borrow your car till tomorrow? Emmett hasn't come back with my car and he said he wont be back till tomorrow afternoon, please Bella" I couldn't say no to Alice, I was just glad to hear her safe and sound "alright Alice" I sighed "great" she continued. "Alice but how am I supposed to get to work?" I said "Don't worry about it Bella, I'll just have Edward pick you up, thanks" but before I could refuse, she disconnected.
"Edward is picking me up tomorrow morning and he's taking me on a date after work" was all I could think about, I couldn't get to sleep at all. My phone started to vibrated; I look at the caller ID and it was a number I have never seen before, I answer the phone call "hello?" I said "Bella" a velvety voice answered, it was Edward "Edward its you, how did you get my number?" I sighed in relief "Alice gave it to me, she said that I'm going to pick you up tomorrow morning and just thought I'd tell you that I'll pick you up at 5.30am". Why did he want to pick me up so early in the morning, it only took 10 minutes to go to work from my house "oh ok "I said suspiciously "well goodnight then Bella , see you tomorrow" "goodnight" I replied and then I disconnected the phone reluctantly.
Knock…knock
Knock…knock
Knock…knock
I roll over in my bed; when bang! I'm on the floor. "Ouch" I say in pain, knock…knock. I hear someone knocking at the door. I run down stairs to open the door, who could it be? I open the door and it's EDWARD. "Edward; what are you doing here? I ask in surprise "remember I said I would pick you up at 5:30 and well Bella it's 5:30" he said smiling. I was confused it wasn't 5:30 yet, but as I look at the clock in the living room, he was right, it was almost 5:30. Well to be exact it was 5:23 and that left me 7minutes to get ready. "Come in" I say, as I was about to run up stairs, I apologized to Edward and told him to wait a couple of minutes for me to get ready; he just laughed and said ok.
10minutes later, I go down stairs catching Edward looking at a photo of Charlie and me when I was four. Edward looked up at me and put the photo down, "is this you and your dad?" he said in his velvety voice, I couldn't help but flush "uu-um yeah, that's me when I was four" I replied. "You don't look anything like your dad, you have his eyes though" he continued "apparently I look more like my mum, but my mums prettier" I said, Edward looked at me confused and changed the subject "um do you live alone? He said in interest "no my dad went to phoenix to visit my mum and step dad for a couple of weeks" I said truthfully. "You're living alone" he said sounding concerned "well only for a couple of weeks" I continued, I couldn't understand why he seemed concerned "uu-um do you want to leave now" I said as he was about to say something. I closed the door behind us and locked the door; Edward opened the door for me and shut it when I was in the car, he was so polite.

"You're living alone" I said in concern "well only for a couple of weeks" she said, I couldn't understand why I was so protective. She changed the subject before I could say anything and suggested we left; I opened the door for her to be polite. We drove all the way to the beach; "why are we here?" Bella said in confusion, I didn't know what to say "uu-um I thought we could watch the sun rise before work, you know… get some sunshine" I said while laughing. "I should tell her what I think, but what if she doesn't feel the same way? Who cares here I go" I thought. As we arrived we just sat in the car, it took me some time before I could speak "Bella? The first time I saw you I thought you were the one and what I mean by the one is that I thought you were the one I loved, maybe I'm going to fast but this is truly how I feel" I said afraid of her reaction, she looked at me shocked "I-I-I actually feel the same way as you do" she replied. I couldn't explain how I felt, I felt happy wait more than happy, GREAT actually. We sat there watching the sun rise; I turned to look at her, when my eyes landed on her lips. My lips parted as I leaned towards her, I was dumbfounded by her reaction, she leaned in and we kissed each other for who knows how long.
As we were walking towards the café, I held Bella's hand, she looked up at me with her lit up brown eyes "so where do we stand?" she said, I knew the answer to that already "we can try and be a couple if you want?" I said trying to dazzle her. She jumped up on me with her legs around my waist "that's fine with me" and she kissed me on the lips as hard as she could. Wow that surprised me… I never knew Bella could kiss like that before. We walked towards the door and entered the café only to find Alice and Jasper on the table kissing each other. "What are you guys doing?" I said dumbfounded, Bella was giggling "obviously, they're getting it on" I couldn't help but look at Bella smiling. Alice and Jasper got off the table, Jasper wiped off the lipstick around his lips and Alice fixed her buttons to her top. "Sorry guys, we were just talking and um yeah" Alice giggled, "yeah you know how to talk really well" jasper said winking at Alice. Bella interrupted "Alice don't you have work today?" "Oh shit you're right I'm going to be late" Alice replied while kissing jasper and running out the door.
It was awkward being in the kitchen with Jasper I had to say something "Jasper? Are you and Alice like serious?" I said in concern "yeah actually, she's like know one I have ever met before and I kind of think she's the one?" He said while getting a drink and pouring it in a cup. "You know Jasper just don't hurt her or I'll have to kill you" I said jokingly but serious at the same time, he looked at me and smiled "I would never do that to her" for some strange reason I knew he was sincere and believed him. This was just going to be a long day; I was nervous about the date with Bella and couldn't stop thinking about it for the whole day.
