New Friendships

At times I question the different nicknames I have for Edward, wondering whether I'm just too dramatic or something. However, the smile that graced his artistically carved face when I entered the kitchen makes me realise that maybe he's not the devil's spawn, after all, maybe he, himself, is the fricking devil.

From the door, I could hear my parents talking, and I could also hear a couple of other voices, so I turned to Alice. Because I'm psychically linking to her, she is able to decipher what I said with my eyes and mind. 'OMG, I was so worried that you were angry with me I totally forgot to tell you that our other flatmates are here and those are the voices you hear. Don't worry, they are super cool, and Jasper belongs to me by the way, I called dibs on him immediately."

Pushing the door open, the first thing my eyes caught was the unmistakable victory smile on Edward's face. And even though I could not see it then, there was a victorious gleam in his eye that showed his satisfaction and thrill about the cat and mouse game we seem to play with each other.

And just like that, i started my journey in a new place with new and old friends, and like all of you reading this will eventually do, I flip to a new chapter in my story.

My first night in the flat was eventful, to say the least. I was super angry at Edward. However, I couldn't hash it out him the way I wanted to since we were in the company of others. And also because i didn't want our new roommates to all think that I'm crazy. If anything, i want them to see Edward as the crazy psychopath that i see him as that everyone else can't seem to no one else does.

Therefore, because of that I decided that I will suppress my anger and leave my confrontation until after dinner...and like all badly laid plans, I crashed and burned. It was all going fine at first, immediately getting into the flat I said hello to everyone and went straight to the bathroom to have a shower, lying to everyone that I was just super tired and need to wash the sleep off me so they won't question my behaviour. However, I saw Edward's smug face and I knew without a doubt that he was laughing in his monster sized head. Laugh at my pain!

Asshole!

After my shower, i properly introduced myself to our new roomies, and i couldn't have been much happier with the group of people we were assigned. Rosalie and Jasper are twins; however, apart from the blonde locks and piercing, ocean blue eyes, there is nothing the same about them. Rosalie- or Rose- has the whole model look going on. Long legs, full blonde hair trimmed and styled to perfection, boobs bigger than my head, and non-existent waist that leads to a curvaceous and bootylicious booty. Yes, Rose is the kind of girl that all guys want and all girls want to be, but hate them at the same damn time.

Her brother Jasper, however, has the whole cowboy look going for him, and he topped it with a southern accent. His blond hair falls shaggy behind him, and even though he is not very muscular, you can tell that he either does heavy lifting or goes to the gym once in a while. After I was introduced to the twins, i was then introduced to Emmett, the monster man. My first reaction to him was to run out of the room and hide under the covers. While Jasper looks like he doesn't work out Emmett, on the other hand, looks like he has a bed at the gym and he eats and breaths gym. He has muscles bulging out everywhere, even his t-shirt looks like it's begging for mercy … to be released from the tight grip his chest has on it. So imagine my surprise when he smiles, and all I see are dimples, and I am unable to control the warmth that spreads through my chest. All of a sudden, I imagine that he would give the warmest, bone-crushing hugs that wraps all around your insides and comforts you.

Let me just say that I was right, because unlike Jasper and Rose who smiled at me, Emmett picked me up and hugged me so hard that I had to tap his shoulder the way a KungFu fighter being crushed by another KungFu fighter taps the floor for mercy. I could see my father's big smile when Emmett released me because now he can go to bed peacefully knowing that his daughter is protected by two males- yeah two, Edward does not count- and one of those males happen to look like a monster that can instill fear into any man's heart.

After all the hugging and wiping of tears, our parents finally relent and decide to leave us to decorate our rooms. Lots of threats were made, and promises of protection and holding each other like brothers and sisters were reaffirmed before they all waved at us with teary eyes and evacuated our new space. We all retreated to our rooms to unpacking our stuff and by the time we all came out of our room it was seven at night, and everyone is way too tired to even think about making dinner, so we ordered some pizza.

When the pizza arrived, Emmett called us all out of our rooms into the living room and declared that instead of watching a movie, we play a game to get to know each other more.

"The rules are simple' started Emmett 'We each ask the person next to us a question, they answer the question and ask the person next to them another question or the question they just answered. You must answer the question or tell us one of your deepest darkest secrets. Simple isn't it?'

Before anyone could answer, Emmett on whether we want to play the game or not, he turned to Rose -sitting next to him- and asked her whether her boobs were real or fake. And just like that, we all turned to her to hear her response and unknowingly mutually agreed to play Emmett's game. We will all eventually take an oath to keep this night a secret between us and make it a night we never talk about.

Hey lovelies, long time no see! Sorry for my lack of update!

Thank you to my beta because amazingness does not describe her, however, it's pretty close.
