chapter 3: Russian Roulette part 2!!!!

Ryan bowed deeply and kissed Emma's hand. So formal... i sighed as Emma giggled. Stupid humans and their shameless flirting... My head head jerked up, connecting with Bella's eyes. Was it really she who just thought that? Or was i hallucinating? Why can't i look away? A faint blush painted her cheeks.

"You needed to talk to me?" Ryan asked, closing the door on his way out. I resisted the urge to growl at him, after all, there was really no need for anger here. My eyes drifted from the door. You were staring at Bella again. He smirked.

"Shut it. I'm not the one using such formalities..." He interrupted me, arrogant human.

"Thats because... had you of tried, you would've risked her safety. And, of course, You know you wouldn't want that." I glared at his overconfident face. The bastard. I turned and walked towards the dorm, smirking. "Wait! You are with holding information from me!" I turned back to him as i heard the door open, but to which dorm, I couldn't tell.

"Thats because you had to go and tease me." I flashed a wide smile. "I don't like it when you tease me." Ryan laughed, completely oblivious to the scent now filling my nose. The urge to kill her, take her blood, was back now. I felt that if i could just have her blood, i would be filled for the end of my existence But as it was, my heart refused to do anything but like her, maybe even love.

"Sorry for interrupting" She bowed her head. Oh god, that smile is gorgeous! Wait, focus, cell phone, Ryan. She held out Ryan's familiarly small silver phone. "You dropped this." Her head remained bowed. I focused on anything other then her scent, like her hair, or her downcast eyes. Oh why did Emma force me to return it to him? She had to of known he would be there too. Did she hate me? Her thoughts suggested otherwise though. I wonder if he knows about the dance... Damn it Bella, focus! She dropped the phone into Ryan's outstretched hand. Of course i knew about the dance.

"Thank you." He bowed once more. He was closer to her then i was. how i longed to be closer to her as well. I shook those thoughts from my head. Heaven knows what i would do were i closer to her. She turned to leave, her cheeks blushing heavily. Had i still been staring at her?

"Bella, wait!" The words were out of my mouth before i could stop them. She turned around, her short skirt lifting slightly with the motions. I hit my forehead. Stop thinking those things...

I'll be in the room. I heard Ryan's foot steps fade as he entered our dorm. I took a deep breath, momentarily hoping just her scent would satisfy this longing for her blood.

"Yes, Edward?" Her smile was too kind, too trusting, I shouldn't be doing this. But once again, I had no control over my actions. I took her hand in mine. So soft, so warm... I sighed unconsciously.

"I was hoping you could forgive me for earlier. Ryan told me you thought I was angry with you and..." i lifted my eyes to stare into hers, "I was hoping I could make it up to you." Not once during speaking did i feel the need to consider taking her life. In fact, the only thing i could focus on was how much i loved her warmth.

"How?" is he asking me... no.. he can't be thinking of asking me that... why would he.? he's too gorgeous for me...

"Bella... May I accompany you to the dance?" I kept my eyes locked on hers and her hand in mine.

Aw, damn it! Cullen got to her before I could. Refuse him please Bella! I resisted turning to face Mike and laughing, for Bella hadn't even accepted yet.

He really did ask me! I think I might just die. of course her thoughts weren't literal, but they hurt all the same. I resisted saying, yes, you just might. She cleared her throat softly.

"Of course I'll go with you." She kept her voice surprisingly calm. Any other female would've launched themselves onto me. But Bella wasn't any other female.

"Thank you." I risked leaning in as i spoke. At any moment it could be too much and i could kill her. Her eyes glazed over slightly.

"My p..pleasure.." She stuttered cutely. i leaned away and let go of her hand. It fell limply to her side and i smiled brightly. It shouldn't feel so good to dazzle her like that. Esme would kill me if she knew. But still, I smiled.

Ryan softly cleared his throat and i whipped around, surprised for once in my life. I felt the heat rise in Bella's cheeks. of all the times for me not to pay attention. Another throat clearing caught my attention and i turned towards Bella's dorm. Emma was standing in the door way, smiling like no tomorrow, or was that her normal smile?

And here i thought you were gonna kill her. I left so i wasn't a witness... Ryan smirked sarcastically as Bella hid her face in her hands. I wished she wouldn't do that.

"Until dinner." I bowed slightly and turned towards Ryan again. Looks like flirting to me. And with such formalities too. He smirked and flashed a smile towards Emma. I walked towards my room, all the while, feeling Bella's stare on my retreating form.

"Until dinner.." I heard her whisper softly and smiled.

"Edward... What about... you know..." Ryan trailed off. Yes, i knew of the dangers, but I couldn't help myself.

"How much did you watch?" I muttered.

"Enough... Since when could you stand by her and not want her blood?" i glared at him.

"Of course I wanted it... Its just..." Ryan poked me when i stopped.

"Continue." He poked me again. Who's up for a game of 'annoy the vampire'? All's Ryan's in the room please raise your hand and say 'I'.

"Well.. I kinda... well... wanted... her...uh... body.. more then her blood.." i muttered softly, hoping he wouldn't hear.

"Huh? Body more then blood? With the intensity of her blood, is that possible?" I shrugged and laid back on my bed, smiling. I couldn't believe she actually accepted, though i couldn't help but feel as if i pressured her to accept. Ryan laid on his bed as well. "You must've really wanted her." I grolwed.

"Fucking pervert.." He just laughed.

"You do know she'll probably expect you to dance?" He muttered after a few minutes.

"Yep." I smiled enthusiastically. Ryan laughed.

"She'll probably expect a tux too."

"Yep.." Not as enthusiastic.

"And flowers." Little by little my enthusiasm faded as he pestered me.

"I know.."

"And chicks love chocolate." Goodbye enthusiasm... I turned to glare at him.

"And you should worry about getting your own date instead of pestering me about mine." I growled. He laughed.

"Probably. But until then, why can't i pester you?" I groaned. What was his obsession with annoying the vampire?

"I'm going for a walk." I stood up and walked towards the door.

"Dinner is in 30 minutes. Why don't you walk Bella there and get to know her?" Ryan actually had something supportive to say.

"I might just try that." I muttered and left. I had 30 minutes till dinner, what to do, what to do? I could always take Bella down to the benches outside and we can talk there till dinner. i stopped outside of her dorm. What if she didn't want to talk to me? I slowly lifted my hand to knock. She wouldn't have said no, then just ditch me.

I knocked once and immediately heard hurried footsteps. The door swung open quickly, thrusting Bella's scent upon me. I stiffened for an instant.

"Hey." She smiled up at me and I attempted to relax.

"Hey..." I smiled back. "Wanna go for a walk?" I extended my hand to her. She smiled and accepted it. Yay! I can't believe someone so kind and beautiful is being this nice to me. I wonder where he'll take me.

"Sure... Let me just go grab my coat... " I smiled. And maybe change into something warmer...

"Oh, Bella!" Emma's voice rang out of the dorm. Bella grimaced slightly. We're going shopping tomorrow!

"Yes, Emma dearest?" Bella frowned.

"Come here... Oh, and Edward, you can come in too!" I found the perfect dress for Bella... "I need your opinion on something." Bella groaned and walked over to Emma's computer.

"No fucking way!" Bella began shoving me away from the computer.

"AW!! COME ON... SHOW ME!" I complained loudly. Emma was laughing hysterically as she turned the laptop my way. The dress was long and black. The top part was a corset and practically see-through around the stomach. the lower half was black with ruffled layers, along with a slit on the side up to the hip. How i would love to see Bella in that.

"Holy..." I could barely speak. Bella would look so gorgeous in that. If only I could convince Bella to wear that.

"Aw... come on Bells! its so cute!" I stepped around her and approached the computer. I turned to smile at Bella, who was staring, horrified, at Emma.

"I would love to see you in this." I smirked.

"Pervert." Bella and Emma muttered at the same time. I laughed.

"I am a man." i shrugged. "But still, I do believe that would look good on you." I smiled widely. Her heart skipped a beat and a blush painted her cheeks. It only made my smile grow.

"Thats settled then. Bella, we are getting this tomorrow." Emma left no room for debate.

"If the dance is tomorrow night.. Why don't we leave and get it tonight?" I pondered.

"No.. absolutely not! you will not be going with me when we go for dresses." Bella very nearly shouted. I pouted slightly.

"Why not? I have to get my tux anyways... It'll be more convenient." I used the voice i knew no human female could resist.

"Never!" She shouted. Is he trying to seduce me? Ugh! I can't let him get his way. I could barely contain my laughter. Of course she would resist.

"Aw, let him.." Apparently my voice worked on Emma. I sighed deeply. If only it would work on Bella.

"Please.." I kept my voice quiet and silky. If this wouldn't work on Bella I would be out of tricks. Her blush deepened.

"Oh... fine..." She sighed, giving up. He's such a cheater... I smiled.

"Thank you." Bella rolled her eyes slightly. "I'll be back in 30 minutes, I hope you are ready by then." I turned to Emma. "Oh, and is it alright if Ryan tags along? Regardless of his date-less state, he should still get a tux." Emma blushed at my implication.

"Thats fine." I smiled hugely and turned back to Bella. "we can walk at the mall." I smiled. Oh joy... malls... It will be better with him there though. I smiled and left the dorm, closing the door on the argument.

"WHAT THE FUCK WHERE YOU THINKING GETTING HIS OPINION ON THAT?" Bella shouted. This time, I didn't bother containing my laughter.

I lied.. the title had nothing to do with it… as for the blood thingy….. well… I decided to make Edward more guy… yeah… more 'guy'… ku ku ku but if you have any questions press that button and ask away.. I also accept compliments and if you wanna kill me… also press that button and request my address… lol

Luv with a loaf of bread
