Its called: A Series of Fortunate Events

I'm making fun of Mike again in this chapter... :D

Everyone hated Monday mornings. Waking up at six, going to school, going to work... it never ended. But I had a better reason than anyone in the world. I hated Mondays because of Mike Newton.

I grabbed my books and dragged myself to class. It was the same as always. The rain was beating down on the canopy of the outside hallways, and my shoes were soaked from the puddle I had parked in. This day was starting well.

Dropping my things, the chair squeaked against the linoleum flooring as I dragged it back. Mike's head shot up and turned in my direction. His bright blue eyes were bright with excitement, and what seemed to be determination. Whatever he was plotting in his head was not going to work.

"Hey, Bella!" He grinned at me, hoping his good mood would rub off.

I just nodded and began to doodle on the cover of my notebook.

"How was your weekend?" He was pressing me to begin a conversation.

Feeling obligated to respond, I sighed. "It was nice, Mike. Didn't you ask me that at work yesterday?"

He looked down sheepishly. "Yeah, I guess so."

I suppose it was a bad idea to get to class early.

Mike kept talking, and talking, and talking all through class. The teacher didn't ask him to be quiet once, and it was becoming very frustrating.

I nodded and said 'cool', 'yup', and 'nice' in all the right places, and by the end of the period he seemed extremely excited.

He grabbed his books and jumped up. As he was walking out the door he yelled, "See you tonight!"

My head whipped around. "What?!" I hissed.

"Don't worry, I'll pick you up." And after a disgusting wink, he left.

That night I gathered Alice and Edward in my room. "You have to help me, please." I begged them.

Edward began to smirk. "That could work well, Alice. And it would be beneficial to more than one of us."

Apparently, he was answering to one of her visions.

"Care to share?"

Alice clapped her hands. "Oh, yay! I have to go shopping! I'll be right back with the outfit!"

And then she was gone, leaving me with a confused look on my face.

I looked towards Edward, sitting on the edge of my bed with a smile on his face. I walked over to sit on his lap. "You'll see what she has planned soon enough."

I leaned forward slightly, already tasting his lips. His arms wrapped tighter around me.

"I'm BACK!" Alice busted the door down with perfect timing.

I looked up at Edward and pouted. He lifted my chin with his finger and pressed his lips to mine very quickly, whispering, "We'll have time for that later."

"Here, Bella. Put this on, with this over it, then I'll tell you the plan."

I grabbed the smooth fabrics and ran to the bathroom. I was eager to hear her plan. I held up the first clothing item and gasped. It was a silky purple nightgown with black lace which barely covered any part of my body at all. Hoping for something a little less revealing, I held up the other item. A sheer robe. Wonderful. I was practically naked.

I walked out of the bathroom, blushing and furious. Edward grinned when he saw me, and immediately wrapped his arms around my waist, kissing the back of my neck.

"Alice, what in the world am I wearing?"

She was positively glowing. "You're beautiful. It's all part of the plan."

Then she leaned forward to whisper in my ear, "Here's whats going to happen..."

At quarter past six, the doorbell rang. Following along with the plan, I waited a few minutes before answering the door. After messing up my hair, I stepped forward.

I yanked open the door to see Mike standing before me smiling. His jaw fell open. "B-bella?"

I pretended to be breathless, "Oh, Mike. I forgot... sorry... I just..." I gasped.

Edward came walking up to me then, his belt undone with his shirt unbuttoned. He put his hands gently on my waist and began to kiss under my jaw.

"Bella," He whispered loud enough for Mike to hear. "Come back to bed..."

He moved his lips to my mouth and began to kiss me deeply. "Oh, Edward," I moaned.

My hands tangled in his hair, kissing him harder now. "I need you, I need you so much." He murmured.

He backed me up against the wall and began to run his hands up and down my body. "You're so beautiful..."

I looked towards Mike as Edward's lips moved to my neck. I easily looked embarrassed. "Sorry, Mike. I'm sorta busy."

Mike stood on the porch, looking extremely uncomfortable. You didn't need to be Jasper to feel the embarassment coming from him.

"I-it-it's ok-kay..." He muttered. Then Edward used his foot, the only part of him that wasn't occupied, to close to door in his face.

My legs gave out, and I slid down the wall, landing hard on the floor.

Edward scooped me up in his arms, laughing breathlessly. "I think that got rid of him for good!"

I chuckled weakly. "You can be sure of that."

He carried me up the stairs and lay me gently on the bed.

"Where's Alice?" I questioned after seeing the empty room.

"Giving us some privacy."

His eyes tightened a bit.

"What?"

"I'm just a bit jealous." He admitted. "Of Mike."

It took me a moment to catch up to what he was saying. Once I did, I couldn't stop laughing. "Mike?!?"

His eyes narrowed defensively. "Well, you dress up like this," he waved his hand towards the nightgown on my body, "for Mike, but you've never done that for me."

I grinned. "You can have me like this anytime, you know that."

He got down on the bed and crawled over me in a seductive way. "Mmm, you look delicious." He murmured. "I didn't even have to act back there."

He hovered over me as he began to kiss every inch of my skin available to him.

"You know," He smirked as he played with the strap on my nightgown. "I think I'd prefer this off of you instead."

;) Don't forget to read my new story A Series of Fortunate Events.
