Chapter 3: Forks ; Alice's vision

"Hey Jake, I'm so glad you made it. Also, now that Alice met you then maybe she will tell someone and it will get around about "my boyfriend" and everyone else will just chill."

"Glad to be of service to Bells. Can I ask you just one thing? How well do you that girl that was just here? I would like for you to stay away from her, if you can, at least don't be alone with her, okay? She gives me the creeps."

"'k, Jake I'll try but I think she's harmless and also very sweet. I like Alice, yes, I think I do. Did I tell you about her family? The Cullen's?"

"Who are they again Bells? Please don't tell me you said the Cullen's."

"Um yeah, I did. Why? Alice is very bubbly, pixie-like even. Now her sister Rosalie, she's not so nice. Her boyfriend Jasper is alright maybe shy even."

"Now Rosalie's boyfriend Emmett, he's a big guy but he seems to be very funny, I like him too. Lastly her brother Edward (I almost spit his name) he's VERY rude. I don't think we'll friends at all. I have to sit by him in one class and that class is the longest."

"Enough about them, I want to know how was your day? Hey, do you want to do something, like drive up to Port Angeles and catch a movie?"

"Sure Bells that sounds great, can I pick the movie?"

"That's fine Jake, I'm going to call Charlie and let him know so he doesn't worry when he comes home."

So we jumped into my truck and drove to the movies. Jacob picked a chick flick, because I said so. Okay I really liked it but I think he was trying to win brownie points with me over this one. He ate like three popcorn's, two large sodas and two boxes of candy. I couldn't believe how much this guy eats.

"Bells can we stop and eat somewhere before we go home? My treat, I promise."

"That sounds good Jake, I'm a little hungry too."

"Can we walk down to the pier and grab a bite at one of the water front café's Bells?"

"I would like that very much."

I have never noticed how handsome Jacob was. His skin was the most beautiful russet color; it matched perfectly with his dark hair and eyes. We walked out of the movies and Jacob picked up my hand and intertwined it with his.

I didn't like Jake like that but it felt nice so I let it go. We must have looked like a couple because this little old lady smiled and said how cute we were. I smiled back to be polite but the smile that Jacob gave was priceless. That's when I noticed that his smile was like that sun shining and it lit his face up.

We walked all the way to the end till we came across this little café called Moon Light. We went in and had a very good meal, Jake finished all his food and part of mine, then we shared a dessert. And just like Jacob said, he pulled out money and paid for our dinner.

Then we walked back to my truck and Jake open the door for me and then went to get in himself. We talked all the way to my house and we got there before I had even realized that we was there. "Thanks Jake for a great night, we have to do it again."

"No, thank you Bells, I've never had so much fun before." Then Jacob walked me to my door, bent down, kissed the top of my head and said good night. "Night Jake, call me tomorrow." Then he bent down again and kissed me on my lips softly.

"Jake, what was that for ?"

"Bella, I know we are just acting so I thought we should, so when we are in front of someone it won't look like the first time we have ever kissed. So now that it's out of the way, I think we should practice, your not mad, are you?"

"No, I guess not, I just didn't expect it that's all. Okay 'night." Then he kissed me again on my lips, smiled, said goodnight and then he got into his rabbit and drove off.

I went in, Charlie was there on the couch eating pizza and watching a baseball game. "Hi Bells, did you have a good night? How's Jake? Did he have fun too?"

"Yeah dad, it was great. I'm going to take a shower and get ready for bed, I have school tomorrow. Night dad."

"Night Bells."

I ran up the stairs, tripping on only two of them, went to my room, got my bathroom bag, and my pajama's. I turned the water on in the shower, got undressed, brushed my teeth and jumped into the shower. The water was hot but it felt great, it helped work out all my knots from my long day. I got out, got dressed, gathered my things, and went back to my room.

I got on my computer and emailed my mom. She gets agitated if I go too many days without letting her know what I have been up to.

"Hello mom, Bella here, lol. What have you been up to? Me, not much. I have a few new friends here already and a few old ones as well. How's Phil? Did you find a place for you to stay while he is at tryouts? So you love it? Mom, I miss you like crazy. I have lots of classes that I've already taken back home so they're easy for me. I only have two classes that I don't like, one is math, which I have always hated and the other is because of the person I sit by. Let's just say he isn't very nice. Hey mom, Jacob Black and I are hanging out now and we went to the movies and dinner tonight. I had a great time. Well mom, it's late and I have school tomorrow, so I better get some sleep before the rain starts. Love you always mom and tell Phil I said hey. Love Bella

I turned off my old computer, turned on the radio, and laid down in my bed. I was asleep before the first song ended.

The sun was out this morning so I was humming and didn't even notice untill Charlie said something. "Sorry dad, the sun is a nice sight to see."

"I know Bells, I like it too. Have a good day too, okay Bells?"

"Bye dad, you too. Are you working late tonight? It's Friday, I was thinking to go down to La Push and hang out with Jake if you are."

"I'll call you on your cell Bella, I don't know yet. Maybe I can grab some steaks and we can eat at Billy and Jacob's house for dinner."

My dad left for work and I ate my pop tarts, drank my milk, washed my glass, and left for school. Today was a good day, even though it clouded up and started to rain before I got to school. Alice was outside waiting for me when I had gotten there.

"Hey Alice, thanks for helping me with my homework yesterday. Maybe we can hang out again soon."

"That sounds wonderful Bella, maybe we can go shopping this weekend?"

"Alright maybe, Alice, are we all going?"

"Just us, silly Bella. No boys allowed!" Then she laughed her bell-toned laugh and hugged me. This made me feel a little out of place but I had to run, the first bell had rung and I had less then minute to get to class.

Today was flying by and lunch time was next. Angela and I walked to lunch, picked up our trays, and got some food. We went to sit at our table but saw that it was full already. Jessica and Lauren had different people sit there so we couldn't. Ben got up and followed us to a new table. I didn't know that it was right next to the Cullen's table. Great, now I'll get evil glares all lunch from Rosalie and Edward.

"Is everything alright Bella?" Angela had asked.

"Yeah, great," I said. "Hey, did I tell you that Alice came over yesterday to do homework and she met my "boyfriend" Jake." I said it loud enough for all the Cullen's to hear and for Jessica and her group to hear also. Alice looked over at me and smiled. Jessica just rolled her eye and went on like I wasn't even here.

"Hey Bella, they're doing blood typing today in Bio, didn't you say you don't do blood?"

"Yeah, that's right "it smells like rust and salt" to me. Thanks, I hope I make it through, maybe I should just skip class today." I said with a laugh in my voice. If I played hooky and Charlie found out, he'd be very mad and I don't want that to happen.

Off to class I went, hating the idea all the way. What if I smell the blood? If he pricks my finger I think I'll be sick. "OK class everyone take your seats and let's get started. Today, we're going to type our blood so everyone know what type they are." the teacher said. Where's Edward at, I know he's here.

"Bella , Bella, it's your turn, can I get your finger so I can prick it so you can put your blood drop on the paper. Bella? Mike, she doesn't look so good can you take her outside to get some air."

"Yes, sir." That was all I heard before I hit my head on the desk.

The next thing I felt was the cool rain on my face as Mike Newton carries me outside. "Mike please put me down."

"Bella, are you sure you can stand?"

"Yeah, just let me sit on the ground, you can go back to class, to Jessica so she doesn't send out a firing squad to find me."

"Okay Bella, see you later." Then he put me down and I was happy no one else was around to see me. "Weak little Bella," here she sits is what they would think. Who cares?!

Just as I looked up to let the rain fall on my face I saw him standing there looking at me. Great, like he needed another reason to hate me and be rude to me. Edward Cullen, is he smiling? Yes, his crooked smile at that. Just one more reason not like him. Man, that smile's sexy though.

"Bella, are you alright?" Wait, who said that? It sounded like soft velvet, no way get out of here! It was Edward and he sounded nice. "Bella are you alright?" He asked again.

I should answer him right? Yes Bella, speak Bella, speak. I forced my lips to work, looked up at him, and nodded. "Thanks Edward, I think I'll be fine. Do you not like blood typing class either?"

"Yeah, cutting sometimes isn't healthy for you. Now why did you get sick? I don't see any blood on your finger tips."

"They didn't get to, I smelled all the other kids' blood and felt faint. Blood smells "like rust and salt" and it makes me feel very light headed. Edward, can I ask you a question, please?"

"What Bella?"

"Why are you being so nice to me? I know you don't care for me and that's okay, I just want you to know that I appreciate that you even asked. I also won't tell anyone that you talked to me if you don't want me to."

"Bella, Alice really likes you and she asked me to try and be nicer to you, for her. She saw that you guys will be the best of friends and that you will be like family to her some day. So I'm going to be civil for her and maybe we'll end up being friends."

"I would like that Edward, trying to be friends sound nice. Thanks again for checking on me." I got up, walked to the office, and asked if I could get a pass to go home for the day because I didn't feel well. I got the pass, went to my truck and drove home.

I called Jacob's house when I got home to tell him I'd be coming down in a little while and I was going to pick up steaks for dinner and Charlie might meet me there. Billy answered the phone and told me Jake was still at school. "That sounds great Bella, I'm glad that you and Jake are getting to spend some time together."

"Okay Billy, see you in a bit then, bye." So I washed my face and gathered some things that I would make for dinner tonight. Just as I was about to go out the door, my cell phone rang. I picked it up and it was my dad.

"Hey dad, are you going to make it to La Push tonight?"

"Yeah, that's why am calling, I'll be there."

"Okay dad, see you there." I picked up all my things again just as our phone rang. I had to put it all down again just in case it was Charlie again.

"Hello, hey Alice, yeah, everything is alright now. I was just on my way to the store to pick up some steaks and meet Charlie at Billy and Jake's place for dinner. Shopping tomorrow? Sounds great, I'll see you at noon. Thanks for checking up on me. Bye"

I ran out the door before anyone else could call. I was in La Push in fifteen minutes. Jake helped me fix dinner. Charlie finally got there and we all ate.

"Thanks Bells, that was great. Would you like to take a walk with me down to First Beach?"

"That sounds nice Jake, besides; I think Charlie and Billy are into the game on the TV anyway?"

As we walked out the door, Jake grabbed my hand and pulled me down to the beach. "Bells, can we practice more tonight?"

"Sure Jake, that's a good idea."

So Jake walked us over to a tree, leaned me back against it, brought his lips down to mine, and kissed me ever so softly and passionately that I almost forgot we was just " practicing". It felt nice though, I wrapped my hands into his hair and he pulled me closer into him.

"Jake I need to breath," I said as I pulled away just to catch my breath. Then we started kissing again.

"Bells, I like this, this is everything that I thought it would be. Bella, I really think that we should talk."

Before he could say another word, I pressed my lips back to his and kissed him again. "Kiss now, talk later."

"Bells, are you sure?"

"Kiss me now Jacob Black or I will find someone that will."

"As you wish." Then Jacob smiled a big wolfish grin, bent down, and pressed his lips to mine, this time harder. He was feeling the hunger that I had for this. I don't know where it was going but I knew that I liked it and I liked it a lot.
