Chapter 5: Sleep over
When we were driving back to the Cullen's house, I pulled out my cell phone and called Charlie to let him know that I was staying with Alice tonight. I don't think I'm going to mention the fact that Alice's brothers will be there.
"Hey dad, I just was checking in and wanted to let you know that I got some new clothes today. Alice wouldn't take no for an answer. How's the fishing going? Are you getting us dinner for the next year or what? Oh, by the way, dad, I'm going to be staying with Alice tonight, she wants to have a sleepover and give me a makeover."
"Ha ha ha, Bells, have fun and stay safe. Don't forget to call Jacob and let him know. Billy and I will be back to his house around six tomorrow night, so meet me there and we'll have dinner before we go home."
"Okay dad, see you then."
"Are you going to call that Jacob guy now like your father said?"
"Yes, when I get to your house so I can have some privacy, you know. Edward, what do you like?"
"I like music, what kind of music do you like?"
"I like lots of music, who are you listening to right now? Wow, Debussy? Classical music is great."
"You know Debussy? I would have never guessed that about you."
"My mom listens to it and I remember my favorites."
We talked back and forth all the way to his house. Alice was waiting for me when we got there.
"Hey Alice, thanks for lunch it was fun."
"Sorry Bella but Edward wants to get to know you better and I thought that lunch was a good idea to do that. Don't you need to make a phone call before we start our makeover?"
" Ah yes Alice, I have to call Jake and let him know I'll be over tomorrow around noon or so. I have to say goodnight to him also, we always call each other and say goodnight."
So I made my call and Jake sounded hurt that I didn't come and stay with him, but I think it is better that we aren't alone together all night; our kissing practice might turn more physical and I'm not ready for anything like that with him or anyone. I said goodnight and that I would show him my new outfit, that Alice picked, tomorrow and that it is a short mini skirt.
"Sounds good Bells, see you then."
"Bye Jake."
"Makeover time Bella, are you ready? I have shampoo, nail polish, make up and lots of stuff to pamper us with up in my and Jasper's room. Well, it's all in our bathroom."
"You share a room with Jasper?" I said before I could stop the words from coming out. "Sorry Alice, that's not my business. I'm just surprised that your mom and dad are okay with it. My dad would've shot the guy if he knew he and I even kissed."
Alice laughed and pulled my up the stairs and into her room which was almost as big as my whole house. "In here Bella, follow me."
I walked into her bathroom and it was bigger than my bedroom. "Have a seat Bella, the great Alice is here to make you more beautiful." Then we both laughed.
"Good luck with that Alice; you'll need lots of help."
"Should I call for Rose to come and help then? Maybe this would be good and you and her to bond."
"No thank you, she doesn't like me and personally I am a little scared of her."
So after what seemed like hours, Alice was mumbling and then finally said "Your done!" She spun me around; I looked into the mirror and had a hard time believing that the person looking back at me was me.
"What did you do Alice? I look...I look almost pretty."
"Edward, come in here, I know you are out there dying to see what she looks like."
"Hello, Alice, thanks I was just looking for Jasper."
"Right, okay, we'll be downstairs playing games with Emmett, like you didn't already know that."
"Wow Bella, you're so beautiful, I mean even more so if that is at all possible."
"Thanks, Edward," I said as I blushed.
"Bella, would you like to take a walk with me? I'm going to sleep on the couch tonight, you can have my bed."
"No, I can't, it wouldn't be fair to you. I'll just sleep on the couch." The look on his face when I said no looked like I broke his heart but why? It was just a bed and I didn't feel right taking his from him. Oh no, he asked me to go on a walk and he thought I said no about that.
"Edward, sorry, yes, I would love to go on a walk with you, I only meant no to taking your bed."
"That's ok Bella, thanks shall we go then?"
"Edward Anthony Masen Cullen! Bella is my guest so you may have some time with her but remember not all night, I get her back at eight for a few more hours so I can do her toe nails too. After that you can talk to her about where she'll sleep. Remember you got one hour then she's mine!"
Edward laughed and grabbed my hand, pulled my back down stairs and out to the lake behind their house.
"Bella, do you mind if I ask you a question? Why are you so stubborn? I mean, really, I have a couch and a bed in my room so you see, it'll not be putting me out and we can talk more too. I'd love to get to know you better Bella." Then he tucked a strand of my hair behind my ear and smiled a crooked smile at me. I lost; I guess I was sleeping in his room tonight.
"Okay, you win, I'll sleep in your bed and you sleep on your couch and I'll answer any questions you may have about me, are you happy now?" I tried to act mad but he saw right through me.
"Yes, almost happy Bella." Then he touched my face with his finger and traced my jawbone down to my neck then he kissed my neck and smelled me...I think. "There, see Bella, I'm at the utmost happiest right now and it is all because of you."
Melting away is what I was doing right now. This hot guy with very cold hands was touching my face and kissing my neck and then I have Jake in all his hotness that wants to help me practice kissing and is acting like he is my boyfriend to get the catty girls at school off my back.
"Bella, are you alright? I didn't do anything to hurt you, did I?"
"No Edward, I'm more than happy, I was just thinking about things."
"Bella, can I try something? Now, you're going to have to stay very still, alright?"
"Okay Edward then we have to get back before Alice hunts you down and rips you apart."
"Bella love, you don't know the half of it." Then he bent down to my eye level and got closer to my face. The next thing I know is he has his lips on mine and we were kissing.
This kiss was wonderful and different, not like the kisses Jake and I have. Jacob doesn't seem to hold back on me. He kisses me like I'm all that he sees and kissing him makes me want more. Now this kiss, it was mind blowing but it felt like Edward wasn't giving me all of himself, it left me wanting more though. I almost felt like I was destined to be kissed like this forever.
What am I thinking? Edward just kissed me and I don't even know why. Maybe he was just being nice to me, maybe they kiss all their friends, I didn't know but I had to keep my guard up because I don't want to get hurt and I don't want to hurt Jacob either.
We finally broke apart and I said, "Let's head back before Alice gets mad okay?"
"If that is what you want Bella."
"Yes, maybe we can talk more later Edward. Thanks for the walk."
"I didn't think you were coming back. I almost sent Jasper out to get you and drag you back Edward, so Bella would come back and hang out with me."
"Did you have fun Bella on your walk ? Did anything happen that you want to talk about?" I turned three shades of red.
"Spill it Bella."
"There's nothing to spill Alice. We went for a walk and we talked, that's it Alice."
"Okay Bella, just remember I can see it and if I wanted to, I could look, oh wait I already know you think Edward is cute and you want to get to know him better. You like him, you want to kiss him."
"What?" I said as I turned red again. "I have a boyfriend; his name is, hum yeah, his name is Jacob Black!" I said with a pout."
"Do you mean that mutt Bella?"
"Why do you call him that? He's not a dog and he doesn't smell bad!" Then I stumped out of her room and went to find Edward. I was ready for bed and I was sleeping in his room tonight.
"Edward," I called, he was right behind me before I could blink. "Wow, you're fast, how did you do that?"
"Follow me Bella, I want to show you something before we go to bed, also Esme and Carlisle want to meet you."
"Meet me?"
"Yes, and I want to show you my piano."
"Do you play?"
"Yes, I play and write music as well. Esme, this is Bella, Carlisle."
"Bella, very nice to meet you. Alice has been talking about you nonstop for days."
"Nice to meet you too, Mrs. Cullen and Dr Cullen."
"Esme and Carlisle please Bella; please make yourself at home here."
Then I heard the music start and it was like I had walked into that music hall of fame or something. I almost fell walking over to Edward who was playing his piano. Beautiful music, I had a tear falling down my cheek and didn't know it.
"Bella, are you alright?" Edward asked, then he wiped the tear away and brushed my check again. "Don't cry Bella, you should never cry. Ready for bed?"
I nodded and he grabbed my hand with his and followed him up to his room. His hands were still cold, just like Alice, what is up with that? I'll find out later I said to myself as I shuffled it away till later.
"This is your room? Oh my god Edward, it's so big. You have a queen-sized bed and the comforter matches the floor and walls. Your room is very nice. Thanks for sharing it with me tonight."
"No problem Bella, what is mine is yours. My bathroom's there if you want to change for bed."
"Thanks again," I said as I smiled and walked into his bathroom to get ready for bed. Alice was waiting for me in Edwards's bed when I came out and Edward was sitting on his black leather sofa.
"Bella, I'm sorry, please don't stay mad at me. I will behave, I promise."
"Alice, you little pixie you, how can I stay mad at you? I can't, hug me you evil little pixie," I said laughing. She laughed and hugged me then she turned and looked at Edward and said something I didn't hear but he smiled and said goodnight to her.
"So what do you want to talk about Edward? You can lay over here for now so you can hear me better if you want to, your bed's huge."
"Thanks Bella, I would like to know all about you, your life before you came here, what you like and don't like, favorite color, food, book?"
