Chapter 10

I blushed when I looked up. Edward was staring at me.

E.P.O.V

I stumbled into Alice's room, and gazed at Bella. She looked marvelous. Her eyes looked brighter somehow. "Um… I brought you some breakfast Bella." I tried to remember more vocabulary as I crossed the room holding a plate of food.

"Thanks." she said, glancing at Emmett and Alice then back to me. "Eat up, it's almost time for school." I said smiling at her, she nodded her head, as I looked into her eyes, taking the plate from me.

'Probably forgetting how to talk again.' I thought smirking, fighting back the growing burn in my throat, I gave her the tray of food.

"I'll go get you some clothes to change into Bella." I heard Alice say from behind me, laughing quietly as her eyes went wide. "Scared now?" I whispered into her ear. She giggled. "Extremely." Bella laughed, taking a bite of the apple I had found.

When we got into the car, Alice was walking towards her Porsche, with Rosalie, and Jasper. I looked at her questionably. 'What?' she thought glancing at me. I raised an eyebrow at her car, then looked back at mine, asking her in silence why she wasn't going into my car.

'It's not like all of us can fit in there…and besides I want a race.' she thought the last part with an evil glint in her eye, as Bella walked down the stairs to my car. I looked at her clothes for the first time, and smirked. "What?" she snapped at me, blushing as I saw what she was wearing.

"It's nothing…I just never thought I'd see you in a skirt unless you were forced to." I said glancing down at her outfit again. She had a bright blue top on, that made her skin glow, and a white skirt that went to the middle of her thighs.

"I was forced to." she mumbled glaring at Alice before getting into the car. I laughed and followed suit. I put the key in the ignition and put the car into drive when Emmett got into the back.

"Ready for a race Bella?!" Emmett boomed, making the color drain from her face. "R-Race?" she stuttered looking up at me with fearful eyes. I nodded.

"You'll be fine." I said winking at her. The color returned to her cheeks, I laughed. Bella watched as the garage door opened, holding her breathe as it clicked into place. "On your mark, get set…go!" Emmett's voice yelled, I slammed my foot on the gas, and we shot off.

When we were reaching the school I slowed down, we were a good 20 ft from Alice. I smirked when I pulled into the parking lot of the school, glad that there was nobody there yet. "You okay Bells?" Emmett chuckled, I looked over at Bella. Her eyes were wide, mouth open, knuckles white.

"Bella?" I asked, pulling into the closest parking spot, I unbuckled my seatbelt and leaned towards her. "Bella?" I said again, pressing my hand to her cheek to comfort her.

"We're at the school, Bella." I whispered, her eyes shifted to me for a second, I smiled. She breathed out. "Better?" I asked, raising up an eyebrow. She smiled and nodded her head.

"U-Uh ha." she muttered, looking out the window as Alice's Porsche drove up next to us and parked. She smiled when Alice screamed. "You beat me!…I want a re-match." She whispered the last part, glancing at a car that was pulling into the parking lot. Rosalie, and Jasper got out of the car.

"Later, Alice." I mumbled, turning the car off, when Emmett, opened the door.

"Are you coming Bella?…Or do you want me to drag you out?" I chuckled, at the blush on her face. She turned and opened the door, stepping out into the fresh air.

I did the same, noticing that my family was already walking to the doors of the school. Her hair blew in my direction in the wind, it hypnotized me into a bloodthirsty trance.

I looked around, making sure nobody was looking, and raced around my Volvo at vampire speed, appearing in front of Bella, her face was inches from mine. "Boo." I whispered, breathing in her sent. "You smell wonderful Bella."

I said taking a step towards her. Her eyes went wide. "Scared I'm going to bite you?" I whispered in her ear, moving away a little to look into her eyes, so I could see the real answer. Her cheeks turned pink. "N-Not exactly." she said looking away from me. I laughed and kissed her cheek, lingering for a second, to memorize her sweet scent.

B.P.O.V

Edward leaned back to whisper into my ear again. "Bella, do you want to continue our little prank from last night?" he asked, his hands held my waist, I looked at him questionably.

He looked away then back at me. I followed his gaze , and found a Sentra pulling into a parking space, Mike's Sentra to be exact.

I giggled and nodded my head. He smiled at me, I hardly noticed the rain starting to sprinkle down on us, as he let go of my waist and reached for my hand, I held it without thinking as we walked past Mike's car, and into the school.

lunchtime

I could feel the glares from Mike and Lauren on my back as we began walking to Edward's table. Somehow the entire school knew about the prank we had pulled on them last night, and one thing was for sure, Lauren hated being gossiped about.

In english and math class she stared daggers at me, luckily I had Alice and Angela in both of those classes so I ignored her. Once we reached his table I sat down by Alice, Edward right beside me.

Emmett grinned at me. "What?" I asked looking at him skeptically. "I never thought someone could hate you so much." Emmett laughed. I sighed. "Lauren?" I said not even needing an answer. Emmett snickered.

"Bella!" I heard Jessica's voice from behind. I turned around only to be caught into her arms as she almost tripped, Emmett laughed, I glared at him.

"Hey Jess." I laughed, as Angela came up behind her. Jessica blush lightly and stood up. "H-Hey Bella." she said glancing up at Emmett nervously. I laughed,

"What's up?" I asked her as Alice sat down next to me giving her a reassuring smile. "She wants to know exactly what happened last night." Angela laughed from behind her, making her jump.

"Oh." I sighed. I glanced up at Edward, he nodded, and scooted over for them to sit. "Well then sit down." I said glancing up at them, smiling. They both gulped, and sat down. Emmett smiled at me.

I rolled my eyes. "Emmett do you want to tell it?" I asked, knowing the answer as I said it. He didn't even answer me! He just started telling the story.

We were all laughing hysterically by the time lunch was over. I glanced over at Angela to see that she was holding her stomach, and leaning into Jessica for support so she wouldn't fall off the seat, I laughed. Then the bell rang.

"Ha, good luck with Lauren next period Bella." Angela laughed as she and Jessica got up, I groaned. That's the only class where I didn't have many friends sitting next to me, but worst, Lauren sat in the seat beside me!

"If I'm not in biology 5 minutes after the bell rings, call the cops." I muttered under my breathe, knowing that everyone at the table could here it. Emmett laughed and stood up.

"Nothings going to happen Bella." Edward said, reassuring me with an amused look on his face. "Says you." I mumbled, and stood up, getting my bag to go to class.

biology

I walked to the back of the classroom, stumbling a couple times. Last period had been hell. Lauren's eyes had watched my every move, with burning hate in her eyes.

As I had been walking out of the class. She whispered. "You'll pay Bella." and then stomped away. 'Pay for what?' I thought sitting down next to Edward, who was smiling at me.

"What?" I asked as he grinned at me. He leaned into my ear. "Newton really hates me now." he chuckled in a hushed tone, so only I could hear him.

I laughed glancing over to Mike, his face looked the same way as last night. "Well this will really make him hate you." I laughed and placed a kiss on his cheek, blushing as I did so, he chuckled and pulled away when a substitute teacher came in.

"Hello class, Mr. Banner is sick today so we'll be watching a movie." The women said in the front of the class, turning around to put a movie into the DVD slot of the T.V. There was a wave of happy murmurs that went around the class. I smiled, and flipped my notebook close.

Half way through the movie I began to feel sick, no wonder why, it was on blood. I felt a tap on my shoulder, and turned towards Edward.

"You alright?" he said looking at my face, probably trying to read my thoughts. I shook my head. "Do you want me to bring you to the nurse?" his voice was gentle. "N-No, I'll be fine." I said. He eyed my face carefully. I smiled to reassure him, it seemed to work.

I sighed a breathe of relief after the movie was over. I looked up at Edward when the lights flickered on, he was staring at me.

"Are you sure you're okay?" He asked me, concern in every word. "I'm fine." I muttered, trying to keep my headache a secret from him. He arched an eyebrow up.

"You don't look it." He said shifting his weight to look at me better. My eyes widened. "Bella, I might not be able to read your mind, but I know you enough, to know that you're not fine." he whispered to me standing up from his seat.

I watched him carefully, as he began grabbing my books. "What are you doing?" I asked, as the bell rang. "I'm taking you home." he said, grabbing my hand, he pulled me out of the seat, receiving a glare from Mike.

"Edward, I'll be okay in a few minutes." I said, as I stood up feeling dizzy for a second. "I'm counting on that." he said smirking at me, he began to pull me out of the classroom.

(A/N I had planned to stop it here, but nothing interesting has really happened yet, and I just can't leave you guys like that now can I?)

E.P.O.V

I dragged her down the hall, and to the nurses office. "Ms. Cope, Bella's not feeling well, could you please excuse us from our classes, I'm going to drive her home." I said using my 'sweet' smile and voice to convince her.

"Of course dear." She smiled at us. 'Such a nice boy.' she thought, turning towards the phone to excuse us from our class.

"Edward-." Bella started to protest, but I pulled her out of the room and into the parking lot before she could finish.

She sighed. "Edward where're we going?" Bella asked me, studying my face. "I told you, I'm taking you home." I said, pulling her towards her car.

"But what about your Volv-." she began asking, until I stopped her. "Alice, will take care of it." I said grabbing the keys from her book bag, and unlocking her car doors.

"Get in on the other side." I said opening the door, I let go of her hand. "I can dri-." she started to say until I put a finger up to her lips.

"I said I'd drive Bella." I whispered in her ear, pushing her back a little, and closing the door. She didn't protest this time, and walked around her truck and got in. I smiled at her.

"Edward I really do feel better." Bella mumbled, rolling her eyes. "Good." I chuckled starting up her truck.

I wasn't use to driving her truck, it was so slow! The highest it would go was 50 mph! "Edward, slow down you're going to kill it!" she yelled for the third time, I waited until we were near her street more to decrease the speed. She was glaring at me. I laughed.

"Sorry Bella." I said giving her an apologetic look as I turned into her driveway. "Yeah right." She mumbled, knowing I could hear her.

"Can you forgive me?" I said making my eyes wider and sticking out my lower lip a little bit.

"No." she said crossing her arms, not looking at me as I parked. I laughed, leaning over the seat and kissed her cheek.

"Please?" I whispered, smirking when her cheeks turned pink.

"Fine." she grumbled, still blushing, she unbuckled herself and got out. I followed right behind her, seeing Charlie's police cruiser in the driveway.

We walked up to the front porch of her house, in silence. She was about to turn the door when Charlie opened it.

"Bella?" he asked, seeming to just be going out, he had a fishing pole in his hand.

"Hey dad." Bella said smiling up at him. "What are you doing home early?" he asked, eyeing me suspiciously. "I felt sick during biology, we were watching a movie about blood…" she glanced at me for a second, I smiled mockingly at her.

" So Edward drove me home." Bella explained, taking a step forward to walk into the door. I followed swiftly behind her, Charlie didn't seem to like that.

He always has been skeptical about me, ever since I became friend's with Bella…if only he knew the truth. I flinched at the thought, he'd do everything to keep me away from her.

"…Billy just called me to go on a fishing trip with him until tomorrow night at 9, but if you want me to stay home Bel-." he said, glancing down at his pole.

"No it's okay, I just have an upset stomach right now." she grinned at me. "And besides I can just force Edward to get me things until I feel better." she said winking at me. I chuckled under my breathe. Charlie sighed.

"Alright Bells, get better." Charlie said patting her on the head, before he walked out. He looked at me suspiciously once more, thinking I wouldn't notice before closing the door.

"What was he thinking when he left? He looked at you like you committed a crime." Bella laughed at the last part.

"You don't want to know." I said cringing at what he had thought, when he first saw us coming to the house.

"What did he think we were going to be doin-Oh." she blushed when she realized what he had been thinking. I laughed and wrapped my arms around her waist, making her blush deepen.

"I love it when you blush, you know." I whispered into her ear, chuckling when I saw them deepen into a soft crimson color. I must have been making her nervous because I felt her hands press against my chest pushing back slightly, I let her go.

"Sorry." I muttered, taking a step back to give her some room. She smiled. "It's okay." she said, turning around to go into the kitchen. I followed right behind her.

"So what are you going to force me to get you first?" I chuckled, sarcasm dripping in my voice.

"Hmm? I'm still thinking about that." she laughed and went up to a cupboard. I watched as she reached up and tried to grab a box of granola bars. She groaned as she went on her tip-toes, I laughed and appeared behind her, wrapping my arm unconsciously around her waist, I reached up with my other arm and grabbed them.

"Apparently granola bars." I chuckled handing her the box. "Thanks." she mumbled, the blush coming back to her cheeks.

I let go of her waist, kissing the side of her cheek, and then disappeared, from her eyes, to sit on the couch. "Remember when I said I'd show you how I move so fast?" I said turning around slightly to look at her.

"Y-Yeah." Bella mumbled, taking a granola bar out of the box and placing it on the counter, glancing at me once as she did.

"Do you want me to show you today?" I asked, appearing in front of her. She stepped back. "Um…sure." she breathed, surprise by my sudden closeness.

"Okay then." I laughed, giving her a crooked smile.

B.P.O.V

He pushed me towards the stairs a little with his ice cold hands.

"You should probably change out of that skirt though, we'll be hiking." Edward said, giving me a sly smile. I narrowed my eyes at him, he knows I hate hiking. He lowered his lips to my forehead and kissed it gently, my body was on fire just from that.

"Fine." I mumbled taking a bite of my granola bar, I began walking up the stairs. I heard him chuckle from behind me, and rolled my eyes. He could get me to do anything.

I ran down the hall and into my room, knowing the quicker I changed the quicker I could be with Edward.

I grabbed the first thing I saw out of my dresser, which were a pair of navy blue jeans, and started to take the skirt that Alice gave me, which I would probably burn later, off, hopping over to the door as I did so, to shut it.

I threw the skirt to the side of my room, eating the rest of the granola bar as I did, and tugged my jeans on. After zipping and buttoning it, I turned the knob on the handle and ran out, only to be caught by a pair of ice cold muscular arms.

I looked up to see Edward's face just an inch from mine, I blushed and tried pulling away. "You ready?" he whispered, letting go of my waist to grab my hand, he began to pull me, without hearing my answer.

He looked back at me with a questionable look, raising an eyebrow waiting for a response, I nodded. He smiled his dazzling smile at me and pulled me the rest of the way down the stairs and out the door.

"Where are we going?" I asked following his footsteps almost in sync, though mine were a lot less graceful then his.

"That's a surprise." He said flashing me his pearly white teeth, making me forget about my question for the moment. I blushed and got into my car letting him drive.

We listened to Clair de Lune by Debussy the entire ride there, it was my favorite piece of music. I smiled to myself humming with it, Edward had joined about half way into it., stopping as the piece ended, he stopped the car. I looked up to see a mountain in front of me.

"Ugh." My happy mood was gone, I had forgotten all about the hiking until I laid my eyes on where it is we had stopped at. He smiled his crooked smile at me and got out, closing the door behind him.

"How long do we have to hike for?" I asked, scared of the answer. He shrugged. "Just five and a half miles." Edward snickered. I narrowed my eyes.

"I'm leaving." I mumbled unbuckling about ready to jump to the other seat and drive away. I heard a loud squeaking sound from behind me, turning around only to be dragged out by Edward's arms.

"Edward!!" I shrieked as he threw me over his shoulder. "Yes love?" he chuckled shutting the door.

"Put me down." I huffed, as he began walking towards the forest, every move making me bounce on his shoulder.

"No chance." He laughed, as I began to hit his back with my hands. "Please." I groaned, as he stopped walking.

"Fine…but only because you asked so nicely." He chuckled, putting his arms around me, he placed my feet onto the ground making sure I was stable before letting me go. "Follow me." his velvet voice sung into my ear.

I nodded, as he gave me one of his dazzling smiles. "Stop doing that." I tried sounding mad. "Doing what?" his face grew into a twist of confusion.

"Dazzling me …" I said without realizing it until it was to late. My eyes went wide in embarrassment, I looked down and blushed, he must have noticed my uneasiness because his arms were around me in a second.

"I dazzle you?" he said, I could only imagine what his face looked like, an amused grin maybe. I couldn't risk looking up to get lost into his warm topaz colored eyes.

"More then you'll ever know." I whispered to myself, forgetting he could hear, me until I had said it, my blush deepened.

"Bella?" his voice was like nothing I've ever heard before, it was a quiet whisper in the wind. He tightened his arms around me, pulling me closer, making me look up. His face was an inch from mine.

"I love you." his golden eyes pierced through my very soul as he whispered the three words that I had only dreamed about….Review!

Her scent hit me then, I took in a deep breathe, my smile grew as I listened to her heart beat, licking my lips as I imagined the taste of her blood.

"What are you smiling at?" she asked lifting up one of her eyebrows, probably noticing the amusement in my eyes. "You won't like it…" I muttered still lost in my day dream. Okay review time!
